In 1985, Shen Zui received a letter from Zhang Jingfu's wife, in which he said that there were grievances in the affairs of that year.
Shen Zui reported that Zhang Jingfu killed Yang Hucheng and caused him to be shot, but when he saw Zhang Jingfu's wife "shouting injustice" 34 years later, he still decided to carefully investigate what happened back then, so Shen Zui found Sun Chuan, hoping that he could sort out the things of the year and restore the truest facts.
Since it was Shen Zui who reported Zhang Jingfu's murder of Yang Hucheng back then, why is he worried about being wronged now? What is the truth of the facts?
Click to pay attention and walk into the past of Zhang Jingfu and Yang Hucheng together.
People around Yang Hucheng
Yang Hucheng, as the initiator of the Xi'an Incident, is also a famous patriotic general on the mainland, but he died on the eve of the establishment of New China.
However, when Shen Zui, who was in prison, heard a piece of news, he suspected the people around Yang Hucheng, so he directly reported to our party that the murderer of Yang Hucheng was Zhang Jingfu, who is this Zhang Jingfu?
Zhang Jingfu is a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi, joined the military command in 1938, that is already after the Xi'an Incident, Yang and Zhang have long been hated by Chiang Kai-shek, when the Xi'an Incident, Yang Hucheng proposed to kill Chiang Kai-shek to make a statement of the whole army, if it were not for Chiang Kai-shek's resolute opposition to anti-Japanese, they would have already raised the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, how could China be bullied by the Japanese like this?
However, Zhang Xueliang tried his best to protect Chiang Kai-shek, believing that he was not guilty to death, and after Chiang Kai-shek agreed to Zhang Xueliang's anti-Japanese demands of Yang Hucheng, he in turn asked Zhang Xueliang to escort him back to Nanjing on the grounds of "unsafeness", and Zhang Xueliang was imprisoned for decades because he agreed to escort Chiang Kai-shek back to Nanjing. Yang Hucheng was also placed under house arrest by Chiang Kai-shek, of course, Chiang Kai-shek's house arrest only restricted their freedom, and there were still a lot of other equipment.
There is no shortage of guards and doctors, Zhang Jingfu was a specialized doctor when Yang Hucheng was imprisoned, and he had a lot of contact with Yang Hucheng, he was Yang Hucheng's side, so people naturally suspected that Yang Hucheng's death was related to him.
In 1949, the Kuomintang saw the defeat and decided to flee to Taiwan, but when Chiang Kai-shek looked back on the years of his struggle with the Communist Party, the reason why he ended up fleeing in a hurry was because he "killed too few people", and must not be "ruthless" enough to cause him to fail, and at the same time Chiang Kai-shek was a very jealous person, these people who were locked up by him were all talents who resisted the Kuomintang for our party, and maybe they would help our party stabilize the country in the future, which Chiang Kai-shek did not want to see, so Chiang Kai-shek had to leave before leaving" Kill a few more".
So before leaving, Chiang Kai-shek gave Mao Renfeng an order to kill another group of people at the end, most of which were underground parties, but Yang Hucheng's name was also among them. Mao Renfeng was a little hesitant after seeing Yang Hucheng's name, because at that time, Yang Hucheng was with him, as well as his youngest daughter Yang Zhenggui, secretary Song Qiyun and his son Song Zhenzhong, there was no problem with adults, but how should these two children be handled?
Chiang Kai-shek, who was angry, even said such things as "cutting the grass and eradicating the roots". Yang Hucheng is an anti-Japanese general, and his prestige in the country is not small, Mao Renfeng knows that once he kills Yang Hucheng, he will be stinking for 10,000 years, so he devised a poisonous plan, he first sent his ace killer Zhou Yanghao to accompany Yang Hucheng and his party to visit the mountains and rivers in Guizhou, and everyone will go to Chongqing after they have fun.
After arriving in Chongqing, Mao Renfeng began to use his own scheme, he sent a spy Wang Shaoshan, and specially instructed him to kill Yang Hucheng not with a gun, but only with a knife, so Wang Shaoshan and Xiong Xiang and other spies cooperated, while covering Yang Hucheng's mouth and nose with a handkerchief, while holding a knife and stabbing Yang Hucheng's body, Yang Hucheng was bleeding for a while, and soon he ran out of breath.
After killing Yang Hucheng, Mao Renfeng went on to kill a lot of people from our party, before the People's Liberation Army entered Chongqing, he fled to Taiwan by plane, but those spies who did not escape in time were not so "lucky", the day after the liberation of Chongqing, the People's Liberation Army found the bodies of Yang Hucheng and his secretary and children in a damp and cold cave.
As for the people who killed Yang Hucheng, our party immediately issued arrest warrants for these people, except for Mao Renfeng, a military commander who fled to Taiwan, and all the other spies who participated in the assassination were brought to justice and executed them, but among the people who were executed, there was one person who made everyone wonder, and he was Zhang Jingfu, a doctor from Yang Hucheng.
This Zhang Jingfu had a good relationship with Yang Hucheng, so how could he assassinate Yang Hucheng? In fact, the People's Liberation Army did not suspect Zhang Jingfu at first, and it was not until Shen Zui's report that we regarded Zhang Jingfu as a murderer, but how did Shen Zui know about this?
Drunk report
Zhang Jingfu was unjustly murdered Yang Hucheng, and behind it was a drunken report.
Shen Zui used to be one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the military command, he was Dai Li's direct subordinate, and was one of the best ace spies in the military command, but later with the death of Dai Li, the power struggle within the military command made Shen Zui feel disappointed, during the Liberation War, seeing that the People's Liberation Army was like a bamboo, the results of the war were basically clear, and in the context of the national liberation, the liberation of the southwest was also steadily advancing.
Seeing this, Lu Han decided to revolt, so he directly detained Shen Zui so that Shen would not let his plans be leaked. Shen Zui was already disappointed in the Kuomintang, the situation in the country had been stabilized, the Communist Party was already the victor of the war, and it was useless for Shen Zui to keep thinking about the Kuomintang, so he decided to revolt with Lu Han, and the later result was that even if Shen Zui was imprisoned.
During his time in prison, Shen Zui took the initiative to confess his mistakes, and when our army asked about Yang Hucheng, Shen Zui thought that the murderer was Zhang Jingfu, why?
In September 1949, Shen Zui, who was in Yunnan, received a secret order from Mao Renfeng, to the effect that Yang Hucheng was dead, and the spy team guarding him was disbanded, so they were asked to work at Yunnan Station, that is, Shen Zui was in charge. After the spies arrived in Yunnan, Shen Zui was personally responsible for their reception, and as far as he knew, these spies all got bonuses, especially Zhang Jingfu, he took a bonus that was higher than the number of others, which was obviously wrong, according to the rules of the Kuomintang at that time, if these spies were just completing ordinary guard tasks, it was impossible to get such a large bonus, unless they did something that made the superiors particularly satisfied, for these Yang Hucheng's guards, the most satisfactory thing to the superiors was probably to kill Yang Hucheng, the gold bar in Zhang Jingfu's hand was too eye-catching, Shen Zui's first reaction was that Zhang Jingfu killed Yang Hucheng, so he reported Zhang Jingfu to the public security.
The police got the news and arrested Zhang Jingfu directly, during which he did not resist, and his family did not raise objections, which seemed to everyone to be a tacit acquiescence, so in 1951 Zhang Jingfu and several other agents who killed Yang Hucheng were sentenced to death. A long time has passed since this incident, and Shen Zui has always believed that his original inference was not wrong, until 34 years later, he received a letter from Zhang Jingfu's wife Zeng Qingyun, and he began to re-examine the incident back then.
Zeng Qingyun made it clear in his heart: "My husband Zhang Jingfu did not participate in the killing of Yang Hucheng back then, but you were drunk and called Zhang Jingfu the murderer of Yang Hucheng in the book.
Of course, the reason why Zeng Qingyun chose to write a letter to Shen Zui at this time was because at that time the central government was rehabilitating unjust, false and wrongful cases, and Zhang Jingfu's wife Zeng Qingyun also hoped to take this opportunity to clear her husband's grievances and let future generations no longer bear the grievances.
If Zhang Jingfu was really wronged, it means that Shen Zui was wrong back then, Shen Zui can actually choose to ignore the letter, or keep the letter in his own hands, and no one knows about this matter, the waving Shen Zui is already a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, but he still wants to find out the truth of the year.
In order not to wronged Zhang Jingfu and to find out the truth many years ago, Zhang Lingfu decided that his wife should write a letter to Ms. Sun Chuan in Yunnan Province, who was specially responsible for the Yunnan Provincial Public Security Department's review of the problems left over from history.
After receiving the letter, Sun Chuan felt very puzzled, the case of Zhang Jingfu was still reported by Shen Zui, but now he wants to re-investigate this case, it seems that Shen Zui also has some doubts about this matter. Knowing that it was Zhang Lingfu's wife Zeng Qingyun who wrote a letter to Shen Zui, Sun Chuan immediately set off to find Zeng Qingyun, and Zeng Qingyun told Sun Chuan that the time of Yang Hucheng's death was September 6, and Zhang Jingfu was in Guiyang and not Chongqing at that time, so it was impossible for him to kill people.
After getting the news, Sun Chuan hurriedly conducted a detailed investigation of Zhang Jingfu's life experience, and found that Zhang Jingfu did have an alibi, because Zhang Jingfu had been arrested by the military commander at the end of December 1947, and later reinstated in August 1949, when Yang Hucheng was killed, Zhang Jingfu did work in Guiyang, and after Yang Hucheng's death, Zhang Jingfu went directly to Yunnan to serve as the deputy chief of the security department of the Yunnan station of the military commander.
Since Zhang Jingfu was not at the scene, why did he get more bonuses than others, and Zhang Jingfu's family has not raised objections in the past 30 years, what is going on?
Truth
Sun Chuan re-examined Zhang Jingfu's case and found a large number of hidden details.
It has been 34 years since Zhang Jingfu's death, many people at that time are no longer alive, and the physical evidence has disappeared with time, it is really difficult to investigate this matter, but Sun Chuan adheres to the principle of finding out the truth and interviews many witnesses of that year, only to find that Zhang Jingfu is not only not the murderer of Yang Hucheng, he is even a "reformer".
Zhang Jingfu and Yang Hucheng have actually known each other for a long time, the two are fellow villagers, when Yang Hucheng was detained, it happened that Zhang Jingfu received the task of serving as Yang Hucheng's doctor, he just stood on the side of the Kuomintang, thinking that Yang Hucheng was confused, but after contacting him, he found that Yang Hucheng was a righteous person. Gradually, Zhang Jingfu's political stance continued to move closer to Yang Hucheng, and the two became friends.
Yang Hucheng is a bold and atmospheric person, knowing that Zhang Jingfu is in financial difficulties, he often helps Zhang Jingfu, Zhang Jingfu and Zeng Qingyun got married, they were sent by Yang Hucheng couplet, the relationship between the two made other spies jealous, so they privately said bad things about Zhang Jingfu to Mao Renfeng, saying that Zhang Jingfu and Yang Hucheng had collusion.
Mao Renfeng didn't believe it at first, but of course when he learned that Yang Hucheng's wife died and that Zhang Jingfu was taking care of the funeral, he was so angry that he directly ordered Zhang Jingfu to be arrested and sentenced to three years in prison. So why was he reinstated eight months later?
Because Mao Renfeng received the order to assassinate Yang Hucheng, he pretended to release Zhang Jingfu, mistakenly thinking that the Kuomintang's attitude towards them had begun to loosen, and this was also to deceive Yang Hucheng to go to Chongqing with peace of mind. Later, Yang Hucheng died in Chongqing, but Zhang Jingfu went to Yunnan with 7 gold bars, how could this not be suspicious.
Regarding the 7 gold bars, Sun Chuan searched for a lot of information, and finally found clues in the archives of the Chongqing Sino-US Cooperation Institute, Mao Renfeng did award bonuses to those "heroes" who killed Yang Hucheng, but the bonuses everyone received were only silver dollars, not gold bars.
As for this gold bar, it is the bonus of all the spies guarding Yang Hucheng, including the "activity funds" of these spies in Yunnan, which is indeed a lot of money, but it is not a lot to distribute to more than a dozen people. However, at that time, many important Kuomintang officials had fled to Taiwan, and everyone could see the decline of the Kuomintang, Zhang Jingfu as a friend of Yang Hucheng, and Yang Hucheng's death made him deeply disappointed in the Kuomintang, so when Lu Han, Shen Zui and others rebelled in Yunnan, he also actively participated.
As for Zhang Jingfu's family, who knew the truth back then, it was because Zhang Jingfu's family was too tight when the accident happened, and there were old and young in the family, and they also wanted to live, so they could only swallow their grievances, but even so, they still suffered from the eyes and ridicule of others for many years.
After a year's review, the court believed that the evidence submitted by Sun Chuan could prove that Zhang Jingfu had nothing to do with the murder of Yang Hucheng, and decided to restore the reputation of Zhang Jingfu's rebels, and the Zhang family was finally able to raise their heads again.
After Zhang Jingfu's family got rid of the title of "murderer", his grandson entered the university as he wished, and some joined the People's Liberation Army.
