In 1949, when Lao Jiang's soldiers were defeated, Guo Rugui stood up and assured Lao Jiang that he would immediately rush to Sichuan, recruit troops, and insist on resisting to the end.
Lao Jiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately agreed.
However, not long after Lao Jiang landed in Taiwan Province, he received the news of Guo Rugui's "defection to the Communist Party", and he almost lost his breath.
【Guo Rugui】
It was not until April 1980 that Guo Rugui's true identity was revealed, and it turned out that he was the deepest "nail" planted by the Communist Party in the Kuomintang.
Guo Rugui has been lurking in the Kuomintang for so many years, although he is very unaccustomed to the internal atmosphere of the Kuomintang, but there are two people who make Guo Rugui really admire.
Next, let's talk about Guo Rugui and these two people who impressed him.
【Guo Rugui in old age】
Who is Guo Rugui?
Guo Rugui was born in Tongliang, Chongqing in 1907, because his father was a man of insight, he was also influenced a lot since he was a child.
At first, Guo Rugui hoped to study engineering and save the country with science and technology, but his old classmate Chen Tingdong said:
So Guo Rugui was admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy, became the fifth student, and gradually grew into one of the famous "Thirteen Taibao" in Chen Cheng's civil engineering department.
【Chen Cheng】
However, although Guo Rugui had a deeper relationship with Chen Cheng, he believed in communism more, especially after the death of Sun Yat-sen and the "April 12" coup d'état launched by Lao Chiang, Guo Rugui's heart moved closer to the Communist Party again, and in 1928, he passed the test and joined the Communist Party of China.
It's just that in the turmoil of the current situation, Guo Rugui once lost contact with the organization, and because of his strong combat ability in the Anti-Japanese War, Chen Cheng favored him more and more.
Later, Guo Rugui ushered in three promotions in one year and became the director of the War Department of the Kuomintang Ministry of National Defense.
[Guo Rugui in his youth]
At this time, the Liberation War had begun, and after more than ten years of searching, Guo Rugui finally reconnected with the Communist Party organization.
At that time, it was Dong Biwu who met Guo Rugui, and under Dong Biwu's arrangement, Guo Rugui continued to serve in the Kuomintang and dismantled the Kuomintang from within.
In the War of Liberation, Guo Rugui passed on many high-level Kuomintang battle plans to the Communist Party, and the key whereabouts of Huang Wei's troops in the Shuangduiji Battle in the Huaihai Campaign were transmitted by Guo Rugui.
【Huang Wei】
However, Guo Rugui's identity was almost recognized, when Du Yuming observed him for a period of time, began to be obviously wary of him, and also reported to Lao Jiang.
The reason for his report was: "Guo Xiaogui's sofa has a patch, as a high-ranking official, he is not greedy for money and not lustful, this is simply the style of the Communist Party, Guo Xiaogui is definitely a Communist Party!" ”
As a result, I didn't expect Lao Jiang to be angry when he heard this, and scolded Du Yuming: "Can't the mainland Kuomintang have honest officials?" ”
【Du Lianming】
In this way, Guo Rugui was exempted from suspicion.
After his return in 1949 as a defector to the Kuomintang, Guo's identity was kept as a state secret until April 1980, when he was made public and rejoined the party.
Chiang Kai-shek finally became so angry in Taiwan that he said: "I didn't expect Guo Rugui to be the biggest spy." ”
Zhang Zhizhong, whom Guo Rugui admires
Zhang Zhizhong said, but at first Guo Rugui did not like Zhang Zhizhong, because many people in the Kuomintang believed that Zhang Zhizhong was favored by Lao Chiang by "patting on the back".
【Zhang Zhizhong】
The change in Guo Rugui's concept came in 1941.
In this year, Zhang Zhizhong wrote to Lao Jiang and persuaded Lao Jiang to continue to cooperate in the fight against Japan.
In 1945, Lao Chiang had bad intentions and invited Chairman Mao to Chongqing to participate in the "Hongmen Banquet" on the grounds of negotiation.
, and also let Chairman Mao live in his official residence.
He also released more than 100 imprisoned communists in Xinjiang at Zhou Enlai's behalf.
[Zhang Zhizhong and Zhou Enlai]
Zhang Zhizhong spared no effort to fight in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and constantly mediated between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. After the failure of the negotiations between the two parties in 1949, Zhang Zhizhong chose to stay on the mainland.
Guo Rugui deeply felt that Zhang Zhizhong and himself were the same kind of people, and the two of them had the same feelings for the country.
Fu Zuoyi, whom Guo Rugui admires
If Guo Rugui's admiration for Zhang Zhizhong is because he has made a lot of efforts for national peace, then for Fu Zuoyi, Guo Rugui is more of an appreciation for his strategy.
【Fu Zuoyi】
In Guo Rugui's eyes, there are very few people in the Kuomintang who really have vision and pattern, but Fu Zuoyi is an exception.
In September 1948, Guo Rugui was ordered by Lao Jiang to go to Nanjing to discuss the next battle plan, but under Fu Zuoyi's repeated invitations, Guo Rugui decided to stay in Beiping temporarily and meet Fu Zuoyi.
This side also completely changed Guo Rugui's view of Fu Zuoyi, Fu Zuoyi was the general of North China at that time, and after meeting Guo Rugui, he pointed out the current battle situation in a few words:
"Only by taking the initiative to attack the communist army and constantly annihilating the living forces of the communist army can the current situation in North China be maintained. The consequence of blindly holding on is that once the communist army adopts encirclement tactics, the national army will fall into passivity, and then it will be powerless to return to heaven! ”
【Fu Zuoyi】
Guo Rugui's expression did not change much on the surface, but his heart has been turned upside down, because Guo Rugui's real identity is a high-ranking agent of our party, and he has been lurking in the top echelons of the Kuomintang for a long time, and he not only understands the operational planning of the Kuomintang, but also has a general understanding of the operational direction of our army.
Fu Zuoyi's unilateral perspective has spied out the essentials of the authorities, and this vision is extremely rare.
In addition, the previous Suiyuan Baotou Battle, Datong Jining Battle, Zhangjiakou Battle, Youyu Guard Battle, Mancheng Rush Battle, Jizhong Heart Piercing Battle and other large and small battles, Fu Zuoyi has achieved beautiful results, so Guo Rugui admires Fu Zuoyi very much.
【Fu Zuoyi】
And Fu Zuoyi, after seeing that the general trend of the Kuomintang had gone, chose to accept the peaceful liberation, and he can be regarded as a real soldier who lives up to the people.
