In the fifties, Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan were executed on charges of embezzlement, while Liu Qingshan's sons struggled to grow up in endless discrimination and hardship. They traced back to the root cause and sought rehabilitation, but they were rejected in front of the whistleblower, the old man Li Kecai. The fate of this generation is shrouded in the sin of corruption in one family, like a heavy shadow that is difficult to erase. Liu Qingshan's regrets and repentances may remain forever in the long river of history. This tortuous history is worthy of our reflection and questioning: who will bear the fault of corruption? Let's take Xiao Zhu into this story.
Liu Qingshan's early life was not wealthy, he was born in 1916 in a poor mountain village in Hebei Province. In those days, life in the countryside was difficult, especially for poor families. When he was young, Liu Qingshan had to work in the landlord's house to make a living.
The society of that period was still ruled by the landlord class, who often resorted to brutal oppression and exploitation of the peasants. The young Liu Qingshan also suffered from it, not only did he have to carry heavy labor tasks, but he was also often subjected to corporal punishment and abuse by landlords. These unfair treatments deeply touched Liu Qingshan's heart and aroused anger and rebellion in his heart.
In the face of the landlord's beating and scolding, the young Liu Qingshan did not choose to retreat, but planted a seed in his heart to overthrow the landlord's rule. He vowed to fight for the liberation of the common people so that they would no longer be oppressed and manipulated by the landlords. This oath became the driving force and belief for his unremitting struggle later, and inspired him to forge ahead bravely and make unremitting efforts to realize the cause of national liberation.
Liu Qingshan's upbringing was full of ups and downs and challenges, but it was these experiences that shaped his strong and unyielding character and love for the people. His revolutionary beliefs were buried in his heart since he was a child, gradually sprouted and grew over time, and finally blossomed and bore fruit, becoming a dazzling star in the history of the Chinese revolution.
Liu Qingshan is a veteran revolutionary whose political career began in the early thirties of the last century. In 1931, he resolutely joined the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army and embarked on a revolutionary journey. During the fiery years of the Red Army, Liu Qingshan showed extraordinary courage and determination, actively participated in various combat tasks, and contributed his strength to the revolutionary cause.
In 1935, Liu Qingshan officially joined the Communist Party of China, which marked his entry into the ranks of party members. Under the cultivation and education of the party, he gradually grew into a loyal party member, never forgetting his original intention and keeping his mission in mind. Under the leadership of the party, Liu Qingshan actively participated in various revolutionary work, silently struggled for the party's cause, and never stopped.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Liu Qingshan resolutely threw himself into the wave of anti-Japanese resistance and national salvation. As an excellent guerrilla, he was well aware of the urgency and importance of resisting the Japanese invaders. In the guerrilla warfare, Liu Qingshan took the lead in fighting to the death against the enemy, and made important contributions to the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan. His heroic deeds were passed down as a good story during the Anti-Japanese War, inspiring more people to devote themselves to the anti-Japanese struggle.
In the fierce stage of the Liberation War, Zhang Zishan and Liu Qingshan shouldered important logistics tasks and were jointly responsible for the logistics department of the Pingjin Campaign. Their duty is to ensure the transportation of supplies needed for front-line operations, and this work is crucial and can be a matter of victory or defeat. Faced with a difficult task, they are determined to use their expertise and experience to do their best to complete the task.
The two knew that the supply of food and other materials was crucial to the victory of the war. Therefore, they decided to use their connections and eloquence to actively promote and mobilize the local people, hoping to collect more food and supplies. Past experience has taught them that the support of the people is crucial, and they are convinced that if they can mobilize, they will be able to collect enough supplies.
Zhang Zishan and Liu Qingshan began their lobbying work. They went from village to village, patiently explaining to the people the urgency of the war and the responsibilities they assumed. They have shown their commitment and determination by leading by example, which has won the trust and support of many people. Gradually, more and more people took the initiative to join their logistics team with their own food, contributing to the victory of the war.
Over time, the work of Zhang Zishan and Liu Qingshan has achieved remarkable results. Their logistics team is growing, and the transportation of materials is becoming more and more smooth. Their spirit of struggle and teamwork also infected more people, forming a powerful force and contributing their own strength to the victory of the Liberation War. This arduous experience has also become a precious memory in their lives, inspiring them to continue to move forward and make unremitting efforts for the cause of the party and the people.
In 1949, Liu Qingshan set foot on the newly liberated land of Tianjin, shouldering the heavy responsibility of secretary of the municipal party committee. At that time, Tianjin was in a difficult period of post-war reconstruction, and its economy was in extreme difficulty. Liu Qingshan understands that economic development is an urgent task at the moment.
Tianjin's business community also heard the wind at this time, and they saw an opportunity to cooperate with the new government, and they came to pay their respects. In the name of doing business, they frequently visited Liu Qingshan and sent money and gifts. Liu Qingshan's original intention may have been to promote economic development, but the temptation of these interests gradually corroded his mind.
In the vicissity of the business world, Liu Qingshan gradually lost his original incorruptibility and fell into the abyss of corruption. He began to accept bribes, became addicted to power and pleasure, and could not extricate himself. Step by step, he lost himself, and the corruption was so ingrained that it was difficult to extricate himself.
It was not until August 1949 that Li Ke was transferred to the deputy commissioner of the Tianjin Special Administration, and this new position brought him great excitement and expectations. For this energetic young man, working with Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan is really a dream come true.
At first, Li Kecai was full of reverence and expectation for Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan, because he had heard about the heroic deeds of the two on the revolutionary battlefield. When he actually got into the work environment and started working with the two leaders, he gradually discovered the facts that disappointed him.
is different from the rumored heroic images of honest and honest people who ask for their lives, but the true faces of Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan are diametrically opposed. They are not guided by impartiality and integrity, but by power and pleasure. Li Kecai had witnessed their indulgence in pleasure after work, which made the admiration in his heart gradually fade, replaced by helplessness and disappointment in reality.
In the post of deputy commissioner of the Tianjin Special Administration, Li Kecai faced great challenges and pressures. He is well aware that as the leader of the younger generation, he shoulders a greater responsibility and must maintain a clean and honest character and set a qualified example for the people. Therefore, he is determined not to be disturbed by the outside world, firmly follow his own path, and strive to contribute his strength to the country and the people.
For Li Kecai, it marks a new beginning and a challenge. Despite the many difficulties and obstacles he faced, he still held on to his beliefs and continued to work hard to build a better society.
On November 21, 1951, the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China in Hebei Province was held in Baoding, and the atmosphere was solemn. The convening of the congress attracted 824 people's representatives from all over the province, including party and government dignitaries and representatives from all walks of life in Hebei Province. At this important meeting, Zhang Zishan, as one of the representatives of the local delegation, participated in the conference with responsibility and mission. Liu Qingshan, who attracted much attention, was unable to attend the venue in person due to his overseas mission.
On the first day of the meeting, Li Kecai stood up with a sonorous and powerful voice, and he was the first person to expose Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan to the conference on suspicion of corruption and perversion of the law. Li Kecai, a veteran party member who has experienced many vicissitudes, seriously recounted one illegal act after another involving the two people, accusing them of serious behavior that violated party discipline and harmed the interests of the people. His accusation resounded throughout the audience and shocked everyone present.
On November 29, Zhang Zishan was formally arrested under the severe punishment of the law, and this news caused a lot of waves in the province. At the same time, Liu Qingshan's return to China was not smooth, and when he passed through the Tianjin Railway Station, he was intercepted by alert public security officers and quickly punished by law. This sudden incident has aroused the attention and heated discussions of all sectors of society, and people have gained a deeper understanding of the importance of improving the party's work style and building a clean and honest government.
In the whole process of handling the incident, the party and the government have demonstrated a firm stand and determination to enforce the law, and have further consolidated the trust and support of the masses of the people in the party and the government. It also warns the broad masses of party members and cadres to keep a clear head at all times, strictly abide by party discipline and state law, be honest and honest, and always maintain the advanced nature and party spirit and principles of communists. This congress became an important historical event in the political life of Hebei Province and also laid a solid political foundation for the development of the whole province.
During the detention of Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan, Liu Qingshan was in a heavy mood, and his heart was full of remorse and repentance. He realized that his selfish behavior had caused serious losses to the party and the people, and it was irreparable at this time. There is no turning back in life, and they must pay for their crimes.
On February 10, 1952, under the strict escort of the bailiffs, Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan were taken to the execution ground. Dressed in prison uniforms, they faced harsh trials, their hearts filled with endless repentance and grief. Standing on the execution ground, they looked back on their lives, full of thoughts and remorse.
With the order of the executive officer, two gunshots pierced the silent air, and the lives of Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan came to an end. Their deaths are not only a sad reminder, but also a painful reminder of selfish behavior. Their tragic fate tells people that no one can escape the sanctions of party discipline and state law, and that selfish behavior will eventually pay a heavy price.
The deaths of Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan have left a deep reflection on people. Their stories have become a living teaching material for people not to forget their original aspirations and keep their missions in mind, inspiring more people to devote themselves to the cause of the party and the people and make unremitting efforts to realize the Chinese dream.
In the 80s, when the country launched a large-scale action to set things right, the three brothers of the Liu family had a glimmer of hope and pinned their hopes on the possibility of Zhaoxue for their father. They arrived at the door of the old man Li Kecai's house, with anticipation and apprehension. Li Kecai's response was cold and firm: "The crime committed by your father is real, not wronged. This sentence is like a handful of cold water, extinguishing the hopes of the three brothers little by little.
In the face of Li Kecai's refusal, the three brothers of the Liu family felt very ashamed. They realized that their father's actions had brought them not only difficulties in life, but also a moral burden. After apologizing, they left silently, perhaps filled with endless remorse and guilt.
On that fine afternoon, the three brothers walked in silence on their way home. The plane trees on the side of the road are swaying gently, as if telling the precipitation of the years and the ups and downs of life. They recall when they were children, the figure of their father, that warm and loving person is gone, leaving behind only a name obscured by history and a memory that is difficult to erase.
They know that their father's mistakes are not only his own, but also the family's, and they are an eternal pain in their hearts. Since then, they have never mentioned this matter again, because they understand that the only thing they can do in the face of the past is to take responsibility for the future and nurture the next generation to put them on the right path. This is perhaps their best remembrance of their father, and it is also their deepest repentance for themselves.
