Why was it that in 1960, an old man who sold porridge was arrested while seeing a doctor, was subsequently interrogated extremely harshly, and eventually became a death row prisoner?
This old man who sells porridge has a close relationship with a murder case 28 years ago. The unfortunate man who died was a high-influence revolutionary hero, and the cause of his death had been a mystery until the arrest of the old man who sold porridge.
The unfortunate revolutionary hero named Wei Baqun was born in 1894 in Donglan, Guangxi Province. He studied at Guangxi Fazheng University, and in 1916 joined the Patriotic Army, fighting yuan shikai with his comrades-in-arms.
Later, he entered the Guizhou Daowu Hall to study, and after graduation, he went to qianjun as a staff officer. Influenced by the May Fourth Movement, he left the Qian army and began to participate in revolutionary activities.
In 1925, he returned to his hometown to carry out the peasant movement. During this period, while propagating progressive ideas, he also cultivated backbone cadres for the organization, actively developed peasant armed forces, and pushed the peasant movement to the entire Youjiang region.
After the defeat of the Great Revolution, the entire organization was greatly damaged, but the determined Wei Baqun never wavered.
He unswervingly continued the armed struggle and actively led the peasants to participate in various patriotic movements. What he did was greatly inspiring, and he was hated and targeted by the old warlords.
The Nationalist forces led by the Gui warlord Bai Chongxi often sent troops to suppress the Youjiang region where he was located. In the face of the enemy's crazy attack, Wei Baqun never feared, he calmly commanded the troops, led his soldiers and civilians, and caused great trauma to the national army.
In the case of many ineffective attacks, Bai Chongxi sent more troops to carry out more fierce attacks, while most of them offered high rewards to recruit assassins and find someone to assassinate Wei Baqun.
In the course of the constant fighting, Wei Baqun was greatly traumatized. His family was also greatly hurt.
There were originally 20 people in his family, of which more than a dozen were tragically injured by the enemy, and few survived. The unfortunate death of his family caused a great blow to Wei Baqun.
Even so, he did not abandon his revolutionary convictions, and he once said with such a sonorous and forceful sentence that revolutionaries should not be afraid of hardships and sacrifices, and they must unswervingly sacrifice everything for the interests of the people.
In 1932, Wei Baqun, a revolutionary hero who had made great contributions to the country, was brutally killed in a cave in Guangxi, and unfortunately died at the age of 38.
The state leaders have always had special respect for this martyr, and have repeatedly ordered the investigation of the events of that year, and must find out the cause of Wei Baqun's death and find the culprit and bring him to justice.
After the founding of New China, the country's various technologies were particularly backward, and law enforcement personnel had no way to quickly mobilize data, and encountered many difficulties when investigating cases.
However, the law enforcement officers were not intimidated by the difficulties, and they continued to investigate with great confidence, and any suspicious clue would be repeatedly studied by them.
The efforts paid off, and with everyone's unremitting efforts, there were more and more clues about the case. After many investigations, everyone came to a conclusion that Wei Baqun's sacrifice was closely related to a traitor, this person's name was Wei Ang.
He was originally Wei Baqun's nephew, but after being captured by the agents of the Nationalist Army, he chose to betray him because he could not withstand the severe torture of the enemy.
In the end, he took advantage of Wei Baqun's trust to trick Wei Baqun into a cave and brutally kill him, and then took his head and ran to the Nationalist government to ask for merit and reward.
In order to assassinate Wei Baqun, although the National Government offered a very high reward, when Wei Ang went to ask for merit and reward, the National Government did not fulfill its promise, but just gave him a little money, like a beggar, and drove him out at will.
In the end, Wei Ang lost his life in the chaotic world and paid the due price for what he did.
The man who seduced Wei Ang's defection at that time was named Liu Zhi, who was a captain and staff officer of the Nationalist government, had a certain amount of power in his hands, and was a very stubborn bureaucrat of the old era.
During the war, Liu Zhi was ordered to assassinate cadres of our army on many occasions and persecuted many patriots. After the victory in the Liberation War, Liu Zhi knew that his sins were serious, and he hurriedly fled the city and went to the countryside to hide.
In order to conceal his identity, he disguised himself as an ordinary farmer selling porridge. On weekdays, he basically does not have contact with others. Even if you are occasionally invited by others, you will be very perfunctory and find an opportunity to leave as soon as possible.
Because of this, he has been in anonymity for many years without revealing his identity. However, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and even if he is so careful, he still leaves some clues.
Through repeated inquiries, law enforcement officers found his wife, and although the two had been separated for a long time, they still had some contact.
Under repeated questioning by law enforcement officers, Liu Zhi's wife explained the area where he was hidden. Before the arrest operation, law enforcement officers decided to pretend to be medical personnel and trap Liu Zhi in order to avoid causing panic among the people.
After formulating this plan, law enforcement officers also conducted an emergency training, and everyone seized all the time to learn medical knowledge as soon as possible and make their disguises look more real.
Everyone's efforts and efforts were not in vain, and when they dressed up as medical personnel to carry out public activities, they quickly attracted many people to stop and watch.
Some people who were unwell took the initiative to come to the law enforcement personnel for diagnosis and treatment, and everything looked very normal.
Liu Zhi, who has always been cautious and cautious, also mixed into the crowd during this period. He watched from the sidelines for a while and plucked up the courage to ask law enforcement officers to help diagnose and treat him.
As soon as everyone saw the target hooked, they immediately told Liu Zhi that the problems on your body are more serious, there is no way to solve them on the spot, and you need to go to the county for more in-depth treatment.
Liu Zhi himself felt that his body was not very comfortable and did need treatment, so he did not have too many doubts and followed everyone to the county seat.
As a result, it was found that the place he went to was not a hospital at all, but a place for law enforcement officers to handle cases.
At that time, Liu Zhi was very panicked, and while he struggled, he explained that he was just an ordinary person. However, the law enforcement officers ignored his struggle and took him inside for interrogation.
In the face of all kinds of evidence laid out by law enforcement personnel, Liu Zhi, who was still a dead duck with a hard mouth and unwilling to admit the mistakes of history, was broken through the psychological defense line and helplessly told the objective facts that he had seduced Wei Ang and killed Wei Baqun.
In the end, he was sentenced to death for maiming revolutionary heroes. As a result, before he could be executed, he died in prison because of illness.
