Great Wall murder

At 5:07 p.m. on June 19, 1987, the Qinhuangdao Municipal Public Security Bureau received a telephone report from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Hebei Provincial Public Security Department: A certain weapon depot of the garrison in Huludao District, Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province, was recently stolen and 6 May Fourth pistols, 1 submachine gun, 6 grenades, and more than 1,000 rounds of bullets were lost.

Qinhuangdao is the key point of the northeast to Tianjin and Beijing, and Beidaihe gathers a large number of tourists from home and abroad. Wang Qingsheng, director of the Qinhuangdao City Public Security Bureau, immediately felt the seriousness and urgency of the matter, and he immediately convened an emergency anti-riot meeting to convey the combat arrangements of the municipal bureau to the heads of criminal investigation teams, public security sections, and police stations of various districts and counties, and demanded that the city's public security organs immediately enter the first-level combat readiness, protect the safety of Beidaihe, and jam the passage for criminals to flee to Beijing and Tianjin. As a result, more than 1,000 public security police and armed police commanders and fighters in the city quickly arrived at their respective combat posts according to the predetermined plan; banks, airports, and ports of various enterprises, public institutions, and institutions stepped up their vigilance to prevent criminals from fleeing. That night, an inventory of hotels and public places where criminals could easily hide was conducted, and an invisible skynet guarded the world-famous coastal city.

By this time, the murder had already happened.

At 12:00 noon on June 20, an elderly man in his old age took a leisurely step and walked on the wall of the "first level in the world" about 4 miles north of China. Suddenly, he faintly heard a few painful groans and hurried away. In a pit, he saw a man and a woman lying on the ground, covered with weeds, the man's head was blurred with blood and flesh and dead; the woman could not move, but the breath was still there. The old man pulled out his leg and ran under the city wall, ran to the Shanhaiguan Civil Air Defense Office, and dialed the phone of the East Street police station.

At 2:18 p.m., the Qinhuangdao Municipal Public Security Bureau received a report from the Shanhaiguan Sub-Bureau, and Wang Deming, the person in charge of criminal investigation work, immediately led the criminal police to the scene. Subsequently, Shi Chengyou, deputy director of the Criminal Investigation Department, led the second group of criminal police officers to the scene. The investigation found that the deceased had burn marks of gunpowder in his ear, and the wounded were shot through the neck and wore a Citizen watch on his wrist. At the scene, 3 bullet casings of The May Fourth pistol were found, and at 150 meters and 500 meters from the scene, two small piles of Fragments of the Packaging Cartons of the Type 54 pistol were found, with fresh traces of being watered by rainwater.

According to the analysis of the scene, the murder should have occurred before 6:30 p.m. on the 19th, because it had just rained heavily. The criminals used a May Fourth pistol, so the criminal police thought of the Jinzhou garrison gun theft case. It was 3 p.m. on June 20, 24 hours after the tragedy.

Where are the criminals now fleeing? The Qinhuangdao Municipal Public Security Bureau immediately notified the public security organs of the districts and counties under its jurisdiction to further increase their forces and immediately close the railways and highways, but no trace of criminals was found.

Tangshan cloth net

At 3:40 p.m. on June 20, the Criminal Investigation Department of the Tangshan Municipal Public Security Bureau received a notice from the Provincial Public Security Department about the gun incident at Shanhaiguan. Therefore, chen Xueguan, director of the criminal investigation department, linked the two cases together, and he immediately reported the situation to Deputy Director Tian, deputy director in charge of criminal investigation work. Deputy Director Tian ordered: The city should act urgently according to the FB-1 level plan!

As a result, 77 investigators from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Municipal Bureau rushed back to the organs on standby from various posts, and the county and district public security bureaus, bus police stations, and tie (gong) road police stations set up checkpoints to block and intercept them, strictly defended the Luanhe Bridge and the East Miningshahe Bridge, the main choke point connecting Tangshan and Qinhuangdao, and dispatched three mobile forces directly under the Criminal Investigation Department of the Municipal Bureau, the Tangshan City Detachment of the Armed Police, and the Hebei Provincial Armed Police Corps to be ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time

At 5:40 p.m. on June 20, a county-wide political and legal work conference was being held in the conference room of the Laoting County Government Guest House. At this time, a police officer from the county public security bureau hurriedly ran into the venue and handed over an emergency circular from the Tangshan City Public Security Bureau to Zhou Shugong, director of the county public security bureau. Zhou Shugong read the shock and immediately handed the briefing to Zhao Zhiyuan, deputy secretary of the county party committee, who was making a report at the meeting. With The consent of Secretary Zhao, Zhou Shugong announced on the spot that the more than 60 public security policemen attending the meeting immediately returned to the county bureau organs to stand by, and decided to first set up a blockade at key parts of the border between Jianggezhuang, Huili, Tingliuhe, Changli, and Luanxian counties.

After receiving the order from the bureau chief, Xu Wantian, head of the criminal police team of the county public security bureau, led investigators Sun Desheng and Li Baoping to Jiang Gezhuang. Before leaving, Xu Wantian hurried home to change into a police uniform, said to his father who was cooking dinner, "There is something to do tonight, I will not come back at night", and then left the house. Sun Desheng returned home to see that there was no one at home, and he picked up a pen and scribbled a line on the calendar card: There is an emergency tonight, don't come back at night, don't wait for me. Li Baoping entered the house on the front foot, and his wife Liu Xiuxian, who worked at the county Agricultural Bank, also returned on the back foot. It turned out that the bank had also received a notice about the criminals killing people at Shanhaiguan, and the governor expected that the public security bureau would have a task, and specially asked Liu Xiuxian to leave work early and go home to cook some food for Li Baoping. Li Baoping said, "It's too late!" Turn your head and go.

At about 6:10 p.m., a public security three-wheeled motorcycle sped across the asphalt road from the county seat to Jianggezhuang. Xu Wantian, Sun Desheng, and Li Baoping did not expect that what would be greeted by them would be a fierce gun battle that they had never encountered before!

freeloader

At 6:32 p.m. on the 20th, two uninvited guests walked into the police station of Jianggezhuang Town, Laoting County, who were Long Xiuqian, a farmer in Houlong Village, and his cousin. Entering the door, Long Xiuqian placed a Type 54 pistol and 21 rounds of ammunition on the table in front of Yao Xingzhi, the head of the police station. Yao Xingzhi was shocked and asked the original question, and Long Xiuqian panicked and told the story of the incident.

The young man who came with Long Xiuqian was ji Jinyou, 19 years old, long Xiuqian's cousin, an unemployed youth in Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province, who ran to the cousin's house in Houlong Village in Jiang Gezhuang Town 3 months ago because of a fight with someone in the local area. At 6:00 a.m., before Long Xiuqian got up, he heard someone outside the door looking for Ji Jinyou, and he went out to see 3 strange young people, with a Northeastern accent, and mud on his legs and feet. They were carrying heavy canvas travel bags, and when one of them saw Ji Jinyou, he suddenly smiled, took Ji Jinyou's hand and said, "Dude, I thought I would never see you again!" Ji Jinyou asked with some trepidation, "How did you get here?"

The man said, "Come to Beijing and come and see you."

Ji Jinyou let the people into the house, let them wash their faces, and shaved their beards. Long Xiuqian found that the heavy travel bag had always been carried in the hands of the visitors, and never left his body. From the conversation, Long Xiuqian heard that the young man who knew Ji Jinyou well was called Takayama.

At about 9 a.m., Takayama pulled Ji Jinyou into the toilet several times, looking mysterious and explaining something. After 9 o'clock, the 3 people hurriedly left with Ji Jinyou, until 6 p.m., Ji Jinyou ran home in a panic, holding a pistol in his hand, saying that the 3 people were going to rob the bank, and he was at a loss for a while.

His wife said, "Don't hurry to the police station to report it!" Therefore, Long Xiuqian rode Ji Jinyou on his bicycle and went straight to the police station.

At the police station, Ji Jinyou looked panicked and said to Director Yao: "The three of them are from Jinzhou, one is called Gao Shan, one is called Da Fei (Chang Baoguo), and the other is called Wang Lishan, and they stole 6 pistols, 1 submachine gun, 6 grenades, and many bullets in Jinzhou. After killing people at Shanhaiguan, they ran here, gave me a gun, and said that the two of them would attack the police station, and the two of them would rob the credit union, and then go to Beijing to hijack the plane and go to a foreign country. I didn't dare to do it, saying that I borrowed some money from my cousin as a waybid, and ran back.

Yao Xingzhi quickly asked, "Where are those 3 people now?"

Ji Jinyou said, "They are all in the grove on the west side of Jiang Gezhuang Village." ”

Yao Xingzhi immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and reported to Zhou Shugong, director of the county public security bureau, who decisively ordered: "First, you must restrain the criminals, and you must not let them run away!" Second, do your best to protect the safety of the masses and not let criminals sneak into villages; third, you must pay attention to your own safety and avoid unnecessary sacrifices.

Meet at close quarters

At 6:20 p.m., when Xu Wantian, head of the criminal police team of the county public security bureau, led investigators Sun Desheng and Li Baoping to the vicinity of the Huangkou Bridge, about 3 miles away from Jiang Gezhuang, the newsboard came from the intercom that Yao Xingzhi, director of the Jiang Gezhuang police station, had reported the police situation to Zhou Shugong, and Xu Wantian shouted: "Quick! Sun Desheng increased the throttle, and the motorcycle flew towards Jiang Gezhuang.

At 6:35, Xu Wantian and three other people arrived at the police station. At this time, Yao Xingzhi and police officer Liu Weizhong were about to take Ji Jinyou to the scene, two three-wheeled motorcycles quickly left the police station and went west, sitting on the motorcycle Ji Jinyou pointed to the front and shouted: "They are there!" ”

Under the dirt ditch on the south side of the asphalt road 200 meters west of Jiang Gezhuang Village, Xu Wantian found three young people in the purple locust bush, one standing and two sitting, looking around.

The three men found the policeman's motorcycle, pulled their feet and ran west along the ditch, then quickly crossed the road north and fled to Xiwangzhuang.

Yao Xingzhi saw this scene and hurriedly returned to the police station to report the situation to the director. Xu Wantian issued an order: "Block them and prevent them from entering the village!" After saying that, 4 police officers scattered and surrounded the criminals from 3 directions, blocking them in the crop field in the south of the village and surrounding them. The last gangster who ran suddenly stopped, raised his gun in both hands, half crouched and half stood, and aimed at Xu Wantian who was chasing him in front of him. Xu Wantian quickly fell down and rolled into the ditch north of the road. The gangsters continued to flee north, and Xu Wantian jumped up, hid behind a poplar tree, and shouted, "Stop! The gangsters turned around and fired at Xu Wantian, who raised his gun and returned fire, and a fierce gun battle broke out!

The three criminals saw that the situation was not good and burrowed into a waist-deep wheat field on the north side of the path.

At this time, Li Baoping hurriedly ran to the wheat field ditch about 20 meters behind the criminals, and saw two farmers in the field not far away who were watering the ground, and was stunned by the sudden sound of gunfire. Li Baoping whispered, "Get down!" After the battle, the farmer said: "At that time, we were all frightened, we didn't know how to run, we didn't know how to hide, that policeman was really brave!" ”

Li Baoping, half-crouched and half-standing, found a criminal through the gently swaying golden ears of wheat. "Ugh!" Li Baoping's pistol rang out, not knowing whether the gangster was alive or dead, and disappeared into the wheat field. At this time, Sun Desheng was hiding behind a dung pile in the south of Xiwangzhuang Village, and launched a confrontation with the criminals; Liu Weizhong was on the northwest side of the criminals, monitoring the movements of the criminals.

The gun in Sun Desheng's hand rang out, hitting one of the gangsters in the head, and the gangsters fell to the ground in response. With a quick hand, he shot another gangster in the thigh, capturing him on the spot.

At this time, Chen Pingchang, deputy director of the Leting County Public Security Bureau, led Wang Xingcheng and Zhao Jinglin to the east side of the wheat field. Subsequently, the county public security bureau chief Zhou Shuquan county armed police squadron fighters rushed to the scene and surrounded the wheat field where the gangsters were hiding.

Risking death search

Chen Xueguan, director of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Tangshan City Public Security Bureau, and Wu Xueyun, deputy director of the Tangshan City Public Security Bureau, led 50 people's policemen to the scene to reinforce them; officers and men of the mobile detachment of the municipal bureau, the three detachments of the provincial armed police, and the mobile brigade of the armed police city detachment who carried out the task of blocking and intercepting the Luanhe Bridge and the East Minshahe Bridge in Luan County also rushed to the scene one after another. At 19:50, more than 400 police officers and armed police fighters from the Public Security Bureau had gathered at the scene of the jiang gezhuang gun battle. Zhang Hemin, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and Dong Zhaoping, secretary of the Laoting County CPC Committee, personally attended the scene to direct this great battle against bandits!

It was getting late, and the command decided to organize a commando team to conduct a combing search of the wheat fields where the criminals were hiding. At 20:10, Chen Li, deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, made a pre-war mobilization to more than 70 commandos who participated in the search, and personally led a commando group to stand among the commandos, followed by Jin Zhu, captain of the riot prevention detachment of the Municipal Bureau, Chen Pingchang, deputy director of the Leting County Public Security Bureau, and Gao Qingqi, head of the Tangshan City Detachment of the Armed Police, and Chief of Staff Zhou, who stood on either side. Searchers lined up at intervals of 3-5 meters, with long and short guns, advancing westward from the east end of the wheat field. They adopted fire reconnaissance and police dogs to open the way, and searched forward step by step.

Every civilian police officer and commander who participated in the war knew in his heart that the criminals were armed with Type 54 pistols, grenades and a large number of bullets; they knew that the criminals were in the shadows, and we were in danger of sacrifice at any time. However, in order to protect the people and eliminate harm for the people, they all put the word "life and death" behind them. Duan Bingzhou, a police officer of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Tangshan City Public Security Bureau, said to Director Chen Xueguan before participating in the search by the commando team: If I sacrifice myself, I will just put a party flag on it.

After a close search, the whereabouts of the other criminal remain unknown. It was getting dark, and in order to avoid casualties, Director Zhang Hemin decided to take the initiative to attack instead of fighting, tightly surround the scene, and organize a search and arrest after dawn.

On the same night, the people's police of the luan county, Qinhuangdao city, and other places of public security bureau rushed to the scene one after another; two deputy directors of the Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau led 50 special police officers to come to reinforcement; the local garrison sent officers and men to give strong support; the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau and the railway public security organs also actively cooperated to do a good job in peripheral control work; and the Liaoning Provincial Public Security Department also sent people's policemen to the scene on a long-distance journey to support the encirclement and annihilation battle.

It was an unpeaceful night, full of tense atmosphere, but also full of tear-jerking love between the police and the people, the military and the people.

Many of the police officers who participated in the war did not wear long-sleeved clothes when they set out, and the sea breeze blew and felt a little cool. Dong Zhaoping, secretary of the Laoting County Party Committee, called the county commercial bureau chief and the manager of the food company and asked them to immediately provide food and clothing for the police. Soon, 1,600 loaves of bread and 1,600 bottles of mineral water were quickly handed over to every civilian police officer and armed police commander and fighter involved in the war. Secretary Dong also ordered all the staff of the county government guest house to stay in the unit to ensure that the combatants could eat hot meals after returning to the county; the county car gas station was open to all police cars, and the medical staff of the county hospital made all preparations, sent ambulances and medical personnel to the scene, and were ready to treat the wounded at any time.

In Jiang Gezhuang, the sales clerk of the supply and marketing cooperatives moved out a box of flashlights, one did not count, two did not want money, and sent it to the scene. Zhou Xishan, a villager in Xiwangzhuang Village, moved 100 loaves of bread from his commissary, and Wang Guisheng pulled the wire from his home to the head of the village and installed a 200-watt light bulb to illuminate the scene. Lu Baoxia brought 5 coats and cotton coats to the police to wear on their bodies. Another unknown old lady brought a mattress and insisted on laying it under her comrades. Some of the villagers brought meals, some brought boiling water, some brought cigarettes, and some brought a pair of clean cloth shoes. A sister-in-law said, "If the bad guys run to the village without you, we ordinary people will suffer!" ”

This is the people's war in the new era!

The results are remarkable

At 5:30 a.m. on June 21, the sky was already light. The public security police who were conducting the second large-scale search found a body in the cornfield on the north side of the wheat field, with the fuse of a grenade on the finger of the left hand, another grenade in the trouser pocket, the pockets of the whole body filled with bullets, and a Type 54 pistol placed next to him. It was identified that the deceased belonged to Chang Baoguo and had a crawling mark about 50 meters long behind him. The autopsy confirmed that the criminal died about 6 hours ago, that is, at about 11 o'clock on the night of the 20th, and died of excessive blood loss after being injured.

The battle ended in victory, 3 gangsters were killed, 1 was captured, and the public security police did not suffer any casualties.

At 6:30 a.m., Cheng Guangwen, deputy director of the Hebei Provincial Public Security Department, rushed to Leting, and Liu Wen, director of the Fifth Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, Pang Changsheng, deputy secretary of the Tangshan Municipal CPC Committee, and Yin Haibo, secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, also arrived one after another to express warm congratulations to all the public security police, armed police fighters, and commanders and fighters of the People's Liberation Army.

According to Wang Lishan, who was captured, he was 21 years old and a worker at the Jinxi Iron Works. At about 5 p.m. on June 17, together with Gao Shan and Chang Baoguo, he sneaked into a certain ammunition depot of the People's Liberation Army stationed in Huludao District, Jinzhou City, which had been spied in advance, smashed open the window with an axe, and stole 6 54-type pistols, 1 Type 56 submachine gun, 6 grenades, 1,098 bullets of the 54-type pistol, and 780 bullets of the submachine gun. On the evening of June 17, the three people sneaked to a friend's house in Jinxi Alpine for a night, from Jinxi to Xingcheng on June 18, and arrived at Shanhaiguan by train from Xingcheng on the 19th. At more than 1 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, they committed evil deeds on the wall of Shanhaiguan, shot and killed a man, injured a woman, snatched cash and cameras, took a yellow Fiat taxi to Beidaihe Station, took a taxi three-wheeled motorcycle to Changli, and then took a tractor to Jiang gezhuang in Laoting County. They did not dare to enter the village that night and spent the night in the streets. At 6 o'clock in the morning of the 20th, 3 people infiltrated The Village of Houlongzhuang to find Ji Jinyou and handed him a Five-Four pistol, and Ji himself grabbed a bullet from his pocket. The four of them walked around Jiang Gezhuang all day, drinking and eating in restaurants twice, plotting to rob banks, attack police stations, and then flee from the hijacking plane in Beijing. They inspected the location of the credit union and the police station, and went to the credit union to observe the situation of the personnel on duty. When he was about to start, Ji Jinyou was scared, and on the pretext of going back to his cousin to borrow the road fee, he ran to his cousin's house, and then went to the police station to report the case.

The fierce gun battles in peacetime have tested our public security people's police, armed police commanders and fighters, and also tested the masses of the people, who together handed over a proud answer sheet to the people!
