Sun Liren, a senior Kuomintang general, was once Chiang Kai-shek's confidant and successor, but his political career changed dramatically in an incident known as the "Soldier's Counsel." This article will unravel the multiple dimensions of Sun Liren's case and the unknown secrets behind it.
At one time, Sun Liren was known as the second leader of the Kuomintang, second only to Chiang Kai-shek. However, his fate was reversed in a "military advice" incident in 1955.
The beginning and end of the incident are complex, involving political intrigue, betrayal and power struggle, and historical details that were once buried are now emerging.
During this history, a young officer, Guo Tingliang, planned to reveal Chiang Kai-shek's shady rule, but his actions were not kept secret, and as a result, not only was he himself arrested, but Sun Liren was also caught in the storm. To investigate the case, Chiang Kai-shek assigned Chen Cheng to set up a nine-member commission of inquiry tasked with revealing whether Sun Liren was involved. However, Sun Liren firmly denied that it was related to the "mutiny plan" and denied that he was the "mastermind".
The investigation lasted more than two months and was finally made public on October 31, 1955. The investigation report pointed out that Guo Tingliang and others tried to organize a rebellion within the army, but Sun Liren failed to take any precautions or report it in time, so he was removed from his post as "chief of staff".
After Sun Liren was removed, he and his family moved to Taichung, and Chiang Kai-shek implemented a series of "seven noes" policies on him, that is, no killing, no trial, no questioning, no judgment, no arrest, no detention, and no release. The agents monitored the entire process, and it was not until 1988, two months after Chiang Ching-kuo's death, that Sun Li was freed, a period of 33 years.
However, just when the "Sun Liren case" seems to have subsided, a series of complex historical events have made this case even more confusing. At first, many people believed that Sun Liren was a victim, misunderstood and wronged by Chiang Kai-shek. However, the declassified files of the US Foreign Ministry revealed an unusual truth: before the outbreak of the Korean War, Sun Liren had secretly contacted the United States to prepare for armed action to put Chiang Kai-shek under house arrest.
These declassified archives show that Sun Liren's ambitions far exceeded people's imagination, and he even planned to replace Chiang Kai-shek as the "watchdog" of the United States.
This discovery shocked many people, especially considering the fact that Sun Liren was once a hero of the anti-Japanese resistance, but now he has become a "national sinner".
In addition, some validation materials reveal a key figure related to the "Sun Liren case", namely Sun Liren's confidant, Li Hong, the former commander of the Kuomintang's New Seventh Army who was sentenced to life imprisonment by Chiang Kai-shek in 1955. Surprisingly, before fleeing to Taiwan in 1949, Li Hong traveled to Beijing and met with General Li Kenong.
This raises an important question: why did Chiang Kai-shek know this detail? After all, this was supposed to be a highly classified matter, but Chiang Kai-shek seemed to know it well.
