In the 1930s and 1940s, the White Terror swept through almost the whole of China. The two major underground espionage organizations established by the Kuomintang, the military command and the central unification, became the sharpest fangs in Chiang Kai-shek's hands.
Because dai Kasa, the head of the military command, was deeply valued by Chiang Kai-shek, he organized and participated in a large number of assassination plans and committed heinous crimes.
At that time, the Kuomintang general Shen Was drunk and was the most proud protégé under Dai Kasa. Shen Drunk was once ordered to assassinate the patriot Lu Xun, but finally gave up the plan because of "family and country feelings". In his later years, Shen Drunk met Lu Xun's son Zhou Haiying and confessed this fact to him, fortunately, he was forgiven.
Death threats 40 years later
When Mr. Lu Xun died, Zhou Hainian was just a seven-year-old child. Although Zhou Haiying did not embark on the same literary path as her father, the many spiritual wealth left by Lu Xun for future generations always illuminated Zhou Haiying's way forward.
Later, in order to remember his father, Zhou Hainian wrote the book "Lu Xun and My Seventy Years" with a pen. In the book, Zhou Hainian tells the story of Lu Xun's near assassination.
In 1992, Zhou Hainian was transferred from the National People's Congress to work for the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, where she met an old man she was not familiar with: Shen Drunk.
The intoxication in Zhou Haiying's memory is a serious and silent person of high moral standing. He rarely gossips with others, but is always able to offer constructive advice at key moments in decision-making.
Later, Zhou Hainian followed the others to Visit Shen's drunken residence. When he first met Zhou Haiying, Shen Drunk only greeted him and then left.
Later, Zhou Haiying and Shen Drunk met again in the restaurant. Zhou Hainian looked at Shen's drunken and stopped talking, and asked if he had any difficulties.
Hearing Zhou Hainian's words, Shen Drunk's pupils shrank suddenly, saying, "I want to reveal a secret to you." ”
It turned out that in 1930, Shen Drunk had received a task and was ordered to assassinate Lu Xun, a democratic progressive. However, after a few days of squatting, Shen Drunk did not dare to move, and finally gave up the plan to assassinate Lu Xun.
Hearing Shen Drunk describe the ins and outs of the matter, Zhou Haiying, although shocked, quickly recovered as usual.
In the 1930s, the darkest hour of Chinese society, many progressive people, including Lu Xun, were persecuted and assassinated by the Kuomintang, and Wang Zaoshi was also a member of it.
After the September 18 Incident in 1931, Wang Zaoshi began to participate in the Anti-Japanese Salvation Congress in shanghai's major schools, at the same time, he began to fully support the Nineteenth Route Army and the Battle of Songhu, and then jointly established the Chinese Civil Rights Protection Alliance with Soong Qingling, Lu Xun and many other patriots, and participated in a large number of revolutionary work.
Wang Zaoshi's actions provoked the anger of the Kuomintang authorities, and soon after, the Kuomintang secret service sent relevant personnel to assassinate Wang Zaoshi.
In 1933, Wang received an unfamiliar package containing a miniature bomb and three pistol bullets. At the same time, the agent threatened, "Watch your head." Wang Zaoshi did not think so, and continued to devote himself to revolutionary activities.
In June, Kuomintang elder Li Liejun met with Wang Zaoshi and informed him of the Kuomintang's assassination plans.
Li Liejun placed a list of 53 members in front of Wang Zaoshi, who was at the top of the list.
In addition to the large number of Communist Party members, Lu Xun and other progressives were among those assassinated. "This list I took from Cheng Qian, you better hide as soon as possible." Li Liejun instructed.
On June 18, Wang Zaoshi suddenly received news that Yang Xingfo, an officer of the China Democratic League who was on the list, had been shot dead by secret agents.
On the 20th, at the farewell ceremony of Yang Xingfo's body, Kuomintang insiders who knew the inside story once again advised Wang Zaoshi to evacuate as soon as possible. Wang Zaoshi deliberately decided to make the Kuomintang's assassination list public.
Later, Wang Zaoshi found the editor of the Damei Evening News, and a few days later, the assassination list was published in the newspaper as a headline. As soon as this news came out, public opinion was in an uproar.
The Kuomintang authorities were criticized by democrats at home and abroad, and Shanghai Mayor Wu Tiecheng made an urgent speech declaring that the "assassination plan" did not exist. In order to control public opinion, the Kuomintang authorities had to temporarily halt the assassination plan.
A demon that kills without blinking
Responsible for carrying out the assassination plan is the military command and the central command, since the establishment of the underground organization, the names of the three swordsmen of the military command and the four king kongs of the central command have almost made everyone feel frightened.
Among the many spies, one person is not only the head of the Three Musketeers, but also ranks among the four Great Kongs, and this person is Dai Kasa's proud protégé: Shen Drunk.
Shen's drunken mother liked Li Qingzhao's "Like a Dream Order" very much, and took words from the drunken and unguided way back. The words Shen and Shen are connected, and Shen Drunk got its name.
He lost his father at a young age and has lived a life of frugality with his mother since he was a child. At a very young age, Shen Drunk joined Dai Kasa's Revival Society at the recommendation of his relatives and became his right-hand man.
Shen was intoxicated and fierce, holding a crutch, and countless people died under his stick, which is why people called him a demon who kills people without blinking.
With his excellent performance, Shen Drunk became the chief of the General Affairs Office of the Military Command at the age of 28, and was deeply supported and loved by the Kuomintang soldiers.
The Kuomintang authorities showed absolute trust in Shen Drunk, and in the 1930s they entrusted the plan to assassinate Lu Xun to Shen Drunk. Although Shen Drunk worked for the Kuomintang, he had very special feelings for Lu Xun.
At that time, Lu Xun used his pen as a sword, awakened many teenagers, led the trend of progressive thought, and was already famous in the literary world.
Although there is a fundamental opposition to the position of the Chinese Communist Party, Shen Drunk greatly appreciates Lu Xun's talent and boldness.
Shen Drunk once said: "If the assassination is successful, China will have one less benevolent person, and the consequences will be unimaginable." However, the order of the superior has been issued, and if you are drunk and disobeyed, it is also a dead end.
In desperation, Shen Drunk could only lead his men to lurk near Lu Xun's house first, pay close attention to Lu Xun's movements, and wait for the opportunity to move.
Shen Drunk sent a large number of Kuomintang agents to garrison the small building opposite Lu Xun's house, and as the commander of the operation, Shen Drunk also went to the small building several times.
Every time he observed Lu Xun, what Shen Drunk saw was a picture of a book of hard work. At that time, Zhou Hainian was still young, always playing around Lu Xun, and the father and son got along harmoniously, completely unaware of the approaching danger.
Looking at the warm picture under the faint light, Shen Drunken moved his heart of compassion,
In the end, Shen Drunk was still impressed by Lu Xun's diligence, and the Kuomintang was quite jealous of Lu Xun's identity, shen drunk and others still did not dare to move, so they abandoned the assassination plan.
"I'm very sorry about that. Otherwise I will definitely not be able to stand you and cause irreparable losses. ”
When he told Zhou Haiying and Pan about the assassination of Lu Xun that year, Shen Drunk was always full of apologies.
In fact, the plan to assassinate Lu Xun did not reveal any rumors, and Shen Drunk could completely hide it himself and let the crimes of that year be buried forever.
However, at the moment of reunion with Zhou Haiying, Shen Drunk still chose to face his heart.
Zhou Hainian did not blame Shen Intoxi, but said sincerely: "He told me frankly that for this reason, I respect him."
In the revolutionary era, too many people can't help themselves, there are always people who make mistakes, like drunkenness, everyone who decides to reform themselves can have the opportunity to be forgiven.
The "devil's" missteps
Shen Drunk was once the ace agent of the military command, but he was not invincible. During Shen's tenure, assassinating Lu Xun was not the only failed mission.
In 1946, Dai Kasa died unexpectedly, and the position of the future successor of the military command was stared at by Zheng Jiemin, Mao Renfeng and others. Later, the military command was reorganized into the Secrecy Bureau, and 7 of the original 8 major division chiefs were dismissed, and only Shen Drunk was retained.
In order to compete with Zheng Jiemin, Mao Renfeng took the opportunity to win Shen drunk. Later, with the help of Shen Drunk, Mao Renfeng also became the director of the Secrecy Bureau.
To Shen's surprise, Mao Renfeng actually crossed the river and demolished the bridge and sent him to Yunnan to command the guerrilla attack. Although Shen Was promoted to Lieutenant General, he had lost control of the Secret Service.
Mao Renfeng was unkind and unjust, and Shen Was also very angry. After the Battle of the Crossing River, Chiang Kai-shek remained stubborn and took Yunnan as his counter-offensive site.
At that time, Lu Han, the chairman of Yunnan, became the focus of attention within the party. In August 1949, Mao Renfeng called Shen Drunk and demanded that he eliminate Yang Jie, the president of Central University.
Shen Drunk knew that if Yang Jie was eliminated, his position in the party would also be threatened. Despite Mao Renfeng's urging, Shen Drunk has been prevaricating for various reasons.
Subsequently, with the help of Shen's drunken mother, Yang Jie successfully escaped, and Mao Renfeng has always been grumpy about this.
At this time, Mao Renfeng announced Chiang Kai-shek's order: Without Chairman Chiang's permission, Shen Drunk could not leave Yunnan. The People's Liberation Army had already marched south, and if Shen Drunk wanted to escape, he had to get rid of Mao Renfeng's control.
In the end, Shen Drunk put the plan to assassinate Mao Renfeng on the agenda. One night, Mao Renfeng suddenly lost power while dealing with official business, and Mao Renfeng scolded Shen Renfeng's men, so Shen Renfeng firmly believed in his plan to assassinate Mao Renfeng.
Mao Renfeng had always been an old adulterer, and after reprimanding Shen Drunk's men, he realized that the situation was grim, so he took the initiative to seek peace with Shen Drunk the next morning.
He smiled and said, "Old Shen, you have treated me consistently all these years... If Boss Dai had a spirit in heaven, he would smile at the Nine Springs. ”
When Shen Drunk heard this, his heart was quite moved, and he suspended his plan to kill Mao Renfeng. At that time, Shen Drunk did not expect that his temporary woman's benevolence would still put him in danger.
Later, Shen Drunk signed a telegraph uprising, and Mao Renfeng was furious and sent agents to Kunming to assassinate Shen Drunk.
Shen Drunk successfully evaded the enemy's pursuit, but he regretted very much that he let Mao Renfeng go because of his momentary softness.
After signing the electrification uprising, Shen Wasun was imprisoned by Lu Han and then sent to Gongdelin Prison to stay in reform.
In 1960, Shen was granted amnesty and later served as a commissioner of literature and history, contributing to the construction of new China.
The decline of a generation of demons represents the rise of another era. As a legal citizen of the new era, shen drunk for the second half of his life, finally achieved peace of mind.
