In the history of China's modern revolution, there is a character who is a typical negative textbook.
In the first half of his life, he made contributions and examples to the Chinese revolution, but in the second half of his life, he fell to the temptation of the Japanese and willingly sold his soul.
If some people say that he is cowardly and afraid of death, but he dares to assassinate the regent of the Qing Dynasty.
If some people say that he betrayed the country to seek glory, he himself has already made great contributions to the Chinese revolution and has a lofty position.
Even, some people say that he took refuge in the Japanese for money, but those who know him should know that his wife Chen Bijun is the daughter of a huge rich man in the Republic of China, and she is not bad for money.
However, the facts surprised everyone, and he, who gained both fame and fortune, chose to take refuge with the Japanese during the critical period of the Anti-Japanese War.
The establishment of a puppet regime and the raising of the flag for Japan caused immeasurable damage to the Chinese revolution.
This person is the big traitor, Wang Jingwei.
Before 1911, before the Xinhai Revolution broke out, China was in a state of confusion.
The corrupt rule of the Qing Dynasty left the entire country in a dignified position, and the revolutionary party had difficulty making choices in the face of the complicated situation in the country.
In particular, the failure of several uprisings against the rule of the Qing government made the revolutionary mood in the country very low.
Coupled with the ridicule of the revolutionaries by the royalists, the revolutionaries had the idea of retreating.
The whole country is in a dead state.
At this time. Wang Jingwei, who is only 27 years old, wants to make a little contribution to the Chinese revolution, arouse everyone's enthusiasm and awaken everyone's fighting spirit.
So, in 1910, Wang Jingwei assassinated the regent of the Qing Dynasty.
In order to carry out this action, Wang Jingwei made careful preparations.
But Wang Jingwei is good at holding a pen, but not good at blasting, and Wang Jingwei is very cramped for the explosion and killing chosen for this assassination operation.
The slogan had already been shouted, but Wang Jingwei still went north into Beijing, and with the help of his assistants, he opened a photo studio in the capital to use as a cover for the operation.
After observing the route traveled by the regent Zaifeng several times, he conceived the location of the attack.
According to Wang Jingwei's plan, he would plant a bomb on the Ganshui Bridge and assassinate Zaifeng by remote-controlled detonation. However, Wang Jingwei's skills in making bombs were very limited, which led to frequent errors in the manufacturing and installation process.
The last time, on April 23, he was discovered by a tricycle driver during the installation, and after reporting to the authorities, Wang Jingwei was wanted.
According to the explosives planted by Wang Jingwei, Shun Teng found the material manufacturer, and then found Wang Jingwei's photo studio, and arrested Wang Jingwei.
The night before Wang Jingwei's attack on April 23, Chen Bijun, Wang Jingwei's future wife, took the initiative to go to Beijing to offer herself to Wang Jingwei, and the two were ready to die together.
However, it was not death that greeted them. Although Zaifeng was bent on killing Wang Jingwei, Prince Su begged Zaifeng to spare him from death because of Wang Jingwei's talent, and just locked him up in prison.
Wang Jingwei's life was saved, but his freedom was gone, and fate seemed to favor him very much, and the Xinhai Revolution saved him from prison a year later.
After being released from prison, Wang Jingwei was warmly sought after by revolutionaries, after all, his assassination was a feat that revolutionaries were proud of, and even Sun Yat-sen looked at him differently.
With such a feat, Wang Jingwei should have gone further, but fame and fortune had already confused his eyes, and he was unwilling to submit to Chiang Kai-shek, coupled with the instigation of his wife Chen Bijun, Wang Jingwei was very resistant to resisting Japan.
In addition to his own resistance, Wang Jingwei also recruited people around him to set up a so-called low-key club to compete with the general environment of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and finally embarked on the road of defecting to the Japanese and betraying the country.
In March 1940, Wang Jingwei's puppet government appeared on the scene. In Wang Jingwei's heart, he did not think that he had betrayed China and the Chinese revolution, but that he was orthodox and still held high the Three People's Principles.
He regarded Sun Yat-sen as the father of the country, and through such superficial slogans, he tried to attract many Chinese and Chinese revolutionaries to join him and realize his so-called curved salvation.
Wang Jingwei attracted many traitors to betray the Chinese revolution and join Japan, and, under Wang Jingwei's auspices, he also built a puppet army that far surpassed the Japanese invaders, with as many as 2.1 million troops.
Wang Jingwei's defection to the enemy dealt a huge blow to the Chinese revolution and frustrated the anti-Japanese sentiment, and his own proposal to save the country was only self-deception.
No matter what day comes, his treason and treason will not be forgiven, and history will not forgive him.
Wang Jingwei, who sacrificed his life for the Chinese revolution at the beginning, has become a traitor who betrays his boss to seek glory, and the assassinations of him by Chinese revolutionary aspirants have continued one after another.
In 1944, Wang Jingwei's last year, and he could only die in Japan on November 1 of this year after the recurrence of his old injury, forever nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
