We all know that Yang Jingyu was the leader of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, and he eventually died because he was betrayed by a traitor.
Why did traitors appear in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation? What kind of situation did the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation led by Yang Jingyu face?
Brutal repression by the Japanese army
The Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation was operating under the noses of the Kwantung Army, and the first thing they faced was the brutal Japanese invaders.
Before the Japanese army invaded China, the life of the people in Northeast China was very hard. The Japanese army would often break into their villages and harm the common people.
After these Japanese soldiers killed people, they burned all their evil deeds with a fire, leaving no trace. The Kwantung Army in the northeast was the elite of the Japanese army and was known as the "flower of the imperial army".
What kind of people are the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation?
Except for a small number of scattered Northeast Army, the Northeast Resistance League was mostly composed of peasants, and there were a small number of bandits and militia groups in it.
Due to the tight control of the Japanese army in the northeast, the Red Army could not enter the northeast at all. There is basically no armed force in the entire Northeast, and it was only after Yang Jingyu arrived in the Northeast that he pulled up the team of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation.
Yang Jingyu worked hard for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, and the Japanese army also exerted the beastly nature in his bones to the extreme in order to suppress this armed force.
The leadership of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation is basically a member of our party. In addition to this, there are also some North Koreans who have moved to the Northeast, and the membership of the Northeast Resistance League is complicated.
Under the leadership of Yang Jingyu, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation actively contacted the masses and planned to establish an anti-Japanese base area.
But how could the Japanese army allow such an armed force to be hidden under their noses. They wanted to destroy this anti-Japanese army and not allow any anti-Japanese armed forces to exist in the northeast.
In order to destroy the impression of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the minds of the masses, the Japanese army began to arrest people at will. They put the hat of collusion with the anti-union on the common people, and then brutally killed them.
Even if many people don't know about the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, what the Japanese army wants to do is to plant the seeds of fear in the hearts of the people. The end of collusion with the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation is very miserable, and when the common people hear about the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation again, they will think of those who died.
In order to completely destroy the mass base of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, the Japanese army burned all the villages where the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation had stayed, and the villagers were taken to concentration camps.
It was freezing cold, and people without houses and heating soon fell ill with cold. The Japanese were so happy with this that they threw the sick into the snow and ice and left them to freeze to death.
After the people died, the Japanese soldiers took them back to their rooms. In a closed room, the disease spreads rapidly.
The back road that was cut off
If the Japanese army in the northeast cut off the hope of the Anti-United Nations, then Chiang Kai-shek's approach was to completely push the Anti-United Nations into a dead end. After Chiang Kai-shek betrayed the revolution, he ordered the arrest of members of our party.
Chiang Kai-shek had already heard about the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance.
Faced with the desperate situation of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the blockade of the passage inside and outside the Guan. Chiang Kai-shek's approach directly cut off the way for the Anti-Japanese League to retreat to Guannai.
Not only that, Chiang Kai-shek's blockade of the Northeast made the situation of the Anti-Japanese League even more difficult. Originally, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation could receive assistance from outside the border, and although life was hard, there was still hope.
The Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation has no supplies, no backup, and no base to live in. The members of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation followed Yang Jingyu every day, running around the snow in the northeast at more than minus 30 degrees.
In this case, it's good that they're not driven crazy. The Northeast has completely become a cage, and the military spirit of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance is no longer stable.
The only way for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation to obtain supplies is the Korean Peninsula.
However, how much better is the situation in the DPRK than in the northeast? The anti-Japanese armed forces in the DPRK are also active on the Sino-DPRK border, and they can only hide in the northeast under the crisis.
Under the multiple blows, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation has been crumbling.
A succession of mutinies
The final blow to the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation was the Japanese army's poisonous plan.
Most of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation are from the Northeast, and only our party members are sent from other places. When our party was working hard for the northeast, the Japanese army seized the families of the members of the Anti-Japanese Federation.
In 1939, Yang Jingyu's henchman Cheng Bin rebelled. The reason for Cheng Bin's rebellion was very simple, his mother was captured by the Japanese army, and the Japanese army threatened Cheng Bin with Cheng's mother's life.
Yang Jingyu was not in the team at that time, Cheng Bin directly killed two staff officers and surrendered to the Japanese army with more than 100 of his men. Cheng Bin's betrayal made the already difficult situation of the Anti-Japanese Federation even worse.
Cheng Bin, as Yang Jingyu's confidant, is familiar with the material points established by Yang Jingyu. After Cheng Bin betrayed, he took the initiative to confess the material point and led his troops to destroy the material point.
Those material points were saved by Yang Jingyu and our party fighters for so many years, and they are the key to the survival of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation.
Yang Jingyu's 8 years of hard work was ruined by Cheng Bin overnight.
It is not enough for Cheng Bin to rebel himself, he also has to rebel against Yang Jingyu's other henchmen. Cheng Bin thought for a long time and set the goal on Zhang Xiufeng.
Zhang Xiufeng was an orphan who was kept by his side after Yang Jingyu rescued him from the Japanese army. Cheng Bin believes that as long as he plots against Zhang Xiufeng, he can defeat Yang Jingyu.
Zhang Xiufeng has been following Yang Jingyu, but he has not learned Yang Jingyu's thoughts at all. Cheng Bin promised Zhang Xiufeng wealth and status, and Zhang Xiufeng easily rebelled.
Before Zhang Xiufeng left, he also stole the military expenses of more than 9,000 oceans prepared by Yang Jingyu. Zhang Xiufeng's behavior completely forced the fighters of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation to a dead end.
After two major blows in a row, the undetermined ones have withdrawn from the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation. Around Yang Jingyu, there were only a dozen people left at this time.
Yang Jingyu led people into the mountains, where they lived by eating tree bark and grass roots. When they could not find the bark, they ate the cotton in their cotton clothes.
On February 23, 1940, Yang Jingyu, who ran out of ammunition and food, was killed by the Japanese army. Before this, the followers around Yang Jingyu had all been sacrificed, leaving Yang Jingyu alone to deal with the enemy.
epilogue
The defection of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation was caused by various reasons. The main reason is that there is no unified thinking in the Anti-United Nations, and everyone has their own careful thoughts, which is also related to the composition of the Anti-United Nations.
Yang Jingyu's sacrifice is heart-wrenching, he dedicated his life to the country and the people, and we will always miss him.
