In the winter of 1944, when the city of Nanjing was cold and windy, the Central Correctional Institute of the Wang puppet government in Taiping Lane was holding a "prisoner" who was the focus of attention, and he was Zhang Bing, an underground member of the Communist Party of China who was unfortunately arrested.
Zhang Bing, a native of Nantong, Jiangsu Province, in March 1938, the Japanese army invaded Nantong City, and seeing the fall of his hometown, he organized the "Wartime Youth Salvation Propaganda Team" to participate in anti-Japanese activities, and then participated in the revolution with the New Fourth Army.
In the spring of 1943, when Japanese imperialism was gradually exhausted, in order to realize the conspiracy of "using China to control China" and "feeding the war with war", it frantically plundered the human, material and financial resources of the occupied areas to support other battlefields, and the "clearance operation" of the Japanese puppet army against the central Soviet union was also launched.
In order to detect the enemy's situation, Zhang Bing accepted the organizational arrangement and was responsible for forming an underground intelligence network in the focus area where the enemy and the enemy were fiercely contested. Soon after, Zhang Bing was unfortunately arrested for betrayal by traitors. In the face of all kinds of torture, he did not yield and angrily rebuked the enemy: Even if you wear the bottom of the prison, you will never be a traitor! The enemy found nothing but to transfer Zhang Bing to the Pseudo-Central Correctional Institute in Nanjing with the intention of "long-term probation."
On this day, a new political instructor was brought to the penitentiary, and his real identity was Xu Chuguang, a CCP intelligence officer who had infiltrated the top echelons of the Wang puppet government. Xu Chuguang's conversation made Zhang Bing feel that this instructor was very different from others. After careful observation and temptation, Zhang Bing repeatedly found opportunities to communicate with Xu Chuguang, and Xu Chuguang also learned Zhang Bing's true identity from secret channels. Under the active rescue of the CCP underground party organization and Xu Chuguang, Zhang Bing was released on bail and thrown into a new battle.
Zhu Yaxiong, the leader of the largest Hongmen gang in Nanjing in the 1940s, was closely related to high-level political officials, business leaders and various local forces, and was a social force in Nanjing that could not be ignored.
One night in 1945, in Zhu Yaxiong's apartment in Nanjing, an oath ceremony was underway, and Zhu Yaxiong and two other people became brothers, namely Xu Chuguang and Zhang Bing. In order to cover up the underground intelligence work, Xu and Zhang, who joined the "gang" successively, successfully won over Zhu Yaxiong, who still had a sense of national justice, with the great righteousness of the nation.
At this time, the Japanese and puppets were extremely strict in prohibiting personnel and materials entering and leaving Nanjing, and the Central China Bureau of the CPC ordered the opening of a material transportation line between Nanjing and the anti-Japanese base area in northern Jiangsu. Zhang Bing approached Zhu Yaxiong to try to help, and Zhu Yaxiong used various social connections to contact Kimura, the head of the Japanese and Chinese Central China Railway Police Department. During the conversation, Kimura was troubled by the frequent thefts on the railway, and Zhu Yaxiong said that the gang had a way to ensure the safety of transportation. Soon, the "Central China Railway Guard Corps" approved by the Japanese side was formed, and Zhang Bing was appointed as the head of the intelligence group. There are several detachments under the headquarters, and each detachment regularly reports on the "enemy situation" along the railway line under its jurisdiction, during which a large amount of information related to the New Fourth Army and the base areas is copied and organized by Zhang Bingzhi and transferred to the New Fourth Army Headquarters.
Zhang Bing also used six special passes held by the "Road Guard Corps" for free rides and exemption from inspection to cover the personnel and materials of the New Fourth Army and the base areas to facilitate entry and exit.
In August 1945, Zhang Bing assisted Xu Chuguang and others in successfully instigating the uprising of the Third Guard Division of the Wang Pseudo "Royal Forest Army". After Xu Chuguang left Nanjing, Zhang Bing was responsible for the work of the intelligence group in Nanjing, assisted in handling the aftermath of the uprising of the Third Division of The Pseudo Guard, and arranged for the families of the insurgents to be transferred to the anti-Japanese base area in batches.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Chiang Kai-shek provoked a civil war and the flames rose again. On the battlefield where the smoke of gunfire could not be seen, Zhang Bing and Xu Chuguang joined hands to penetrate deep behind the enemy in Xiang'e and carry out a covert struggle in a more sinister environment. In September 1947, Xu Chuguang was arrested in Wuchang for betrayal as a traitor. Zhang Bing quickly organized the transfer of relevant personnel, including Xu Chuguang's wife, planned to rescue his closest comrades-in-arms, and then accepted organizational arrangements to shoulder the leadership responsibility of the secret work in Hubei and Hunan. Unfortunately, Xu Chuguang was later secretly killed by the enemy at Yuhuatai in Nanjing.
In the autumn of 1948, at the Changsha Railway Station, the air was filled with the smell of slaughter. A traitor, with agents from the Secret Service, arrested And transferred Zhang Bing, who had come to transfer staff, to Wuhan.
In the early morning of May 15, 1949, the People's Liberation Army rolled iron into the three towns of Wuhan. Inside the detention center of the Kuomintang Wuhan Garrison Headquarters, accompanied by the distant rumbling of artillery fire, the iron door of the cell suddenly opened, Zhang Bing was taken away by the agents and brutally killed, and his body was also thrown into the river.
According to the recollections of the comrades-in-arms who were detained together, Zhang Bing bravely said goodbye to everyone before the uprising: "If we can exchange our deaths for the liberation of millions of people in Wuhan, it will be a good moment that we cannot ask for." ”
