The name Han Liancheng may not be familiar to many friends now, but if you want to say who is the most successful spy around Chiang Kai-shek, I am afraid that it is Han Liancheng.
In 1950, the Central People's Government appointed Han Lian as a member of the Northwest Military and Political Committee, and here he met his old acquaintance Zhang Zhizhong, who said to Han Liancheng in front of Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai:
"After you (Han Liancheng) left Lanzhou, He Yingqin reported to Chiang Kai-shek that Han Liancheng had arrived in the Liberated Areas. When Chiang Kai-shek heard this, he became angry, knocked over the glass on the table, pointed at He Yingqin and shouted: 'You forced it!' If you hadn't degraded him to a lieutenant general brigadier general, would he have gone? ’”
Even at this time, Chiang Kai-shek still did not think that Han Liancheng was doing something against him.

What kind of treatment was Han Liancheng treated by Chiang Kai-shek's side?
In 1909, Han Liancheng was born in Guyuan, Gansu, and later joined the army to the army of Ma Hongkui in Ningxia.
In 1929, when Chiang Kai-shek and Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan fought the Central Plains War, Ma Hongkui, a subordinate of Feng Yuxiang, defected to Chiang Kai-shek. When Chiang Kai-shek was supervising the battle in Xuzhou, he was almost successfully attacked by Feng Yuxiang's men, but thanks to Han's troops, Chiang Kai-shek remembered this radiant and alert young man.
Chiang Kai-shek had an attendant room, and its authority was as great as that of the party, government, army, finance, and literature. Important staff members of the chamber of servants also have to work part-time in important departments of government, and the chamber of servants is an institution that is above all institutions.
The people who could enter the attendant's room were all close associates who had been carefully selected by Chiang Kai-shek.
In the spring of 1940, Chiang Kai-shek went to Liuzhou, knew that Han Liancheng was a division commander of the Gui clan, was very happy, and arranged for him to go to the Chongqing National Defense Research Institute for further study, which was the place to train senior military commanders of the Kuomintang.
In May 1943, Han Liancheng graduated from the National Defense Research Institute and entered the attendant office of the chairman of the Kuomintang Military Commission as a senior staff officer with excellent results, and at the same time served as the head of the staff of the office of the chief of staff, and there were places where he specialized in both offices.
Although Han Liancheng was in two places, he spent most of his time in the attendant room, and he was very familiar with Chiang Kai-shek's sons Jing guo and Wei Guo, and his relationship was relatively close, and he called each other brothers and brothers.
In the attendant room, Chiang Kai-shek was very appreciative of Han's honed personality and ability. He dared to tell the truth, which made Chiang Kai-shek even more important. In particular, the two things that happened to Han Liancheng not only let us see his wisdom, but also let future generations see Chiang Kai-shek's ruling skills.
He Yingqin sent an expedition to Europe and presented a report to Chiang Kai-shek. Han Liancheng signed and submitted it to Chiang Kai-shek according to the procedure, and Chiang Kai-shek saw the opinion signed by Han Liancheng and held that the dispatch of this inspection delegation had no practical significance. Han Liancheng also said in front of Chiang Kai-shek: "Pull a group of cattle to Europe, turn around and come back to a group of cattle." Chiang Kai-shek smiled and said, "You have no one in sight like this." But Han Liancheng dared to say this, and it made a lot of sense.
In another official document signed by Han Liancheng, it was about an old warlord with a reputation. Chiang Kai-shek made it clear that as long as he is controlled in Chongqing, he can do business, gamble money, eat flowers and wine, as long as he obeys and plays a role in appeasing. However, for those who serve the country, they must be loyal and honest, have the ability to do things, and the requirements will be strict.
But what Chiang Kai-shek did not know was that Han Liancheng, who had such a close relationship with the Chiang family and so much trust in himself, secretly met with Zhou Enlai in Chongqing through the secret contact of his close friend Zhou Shiguan in Chongqing, and later met with Wang Ruofei, Dong Biwu, and Li Kenong in Chongqing. Since then, he has established secret ties with the Communist Party and laid the cornerstone of his "famous patriotic general".

In 1945, after the Japanese surrendered, Han Washien was appointed by Chiang Kai-shek as the commander of the 46th Army and took over Hainan.
Before leaving, Chiang Kai-shek asked him to suppress the Communists, and Zhou Enlai asked him to protect the Qiongya column. Because the only radio station of the Qiongya Column was broken at that time and could not contact Yan'an, Han Liancheng tried to contact the Qiongya Column after he went, showing his identity, but did not get the trust of the Qiongya Column.
Moreover, the Qiongya column also secretly attacked Han Liancheng, and when Han Liancheng was recuperating from his wounds, his successor encircled and suppressed the Qiongya column, and the column suffered heavy losses, and as a result, the column recorded this vendetta under Han Liancheng's name.
This misunderstanding was not solved until 1950, when Premier Zhou Enlai invited Han Liancheng to dinner with Feng Baiju, commander-in-chief of the column.
In 1947, Chiang Kai-shek launched an attack on the Liberated Areas, but the Shandong Liberated Areas were under pressure from the Kuomintang troops, and the situation was not optimistic.
Han's 46th Army was also on the Shandong front. Because this communication was very good, Han Zaicheng and Marshal Chen Yi cooperated tacitly. While giving Chen Yi the information he knew, he did his best to slow down his troops and drag their feet.
In Laiwu, Chen Yi's East China Field Army won a victory that determined the trend of the Liberation War, and Han Liancheng made a special contribution.
Until the final decisive battle, Han Zaicheng threw down the 46th Army, leaving the entire American-equipped 46th Army leaderless, and finally the Li Xianzhou Corps to which he belonged was completely destroyed, and 19 general-level officers, including Li Xianzhou, were captured.
Han Zaicheng, who had left the 46th Army, refused Marshal Chen Yi's advice to his safety and asked him to go to the Liberated Areas, or return to Nanjing.
As a result, as he expected, Chiang Kai-shek not only did not blame this "defeated general", but based on the story he made up, awarded him the title of "lone hero" and continued to serve as a senior staff officer at Chiang Kai-shek's side.
Later, one of his regimental commanders fled back and exposed him to Du Luming, but Chiang Kai-shek did not believe Du Luming. Because he was a person close to Old Chiang Kai-shek, the military commanders were also helpless against him.
He Yingqin suspected him and transferred him to Lanzhou to work as the commander of the Lanzhou garrison, which made Han Zaicheng feel dangerous, and he later ran to Hong Kong with the help of many friends.
In 1948, after the victory of the Liberation War, Han Zaicheng went to Yan'an with the help of Pan Hannian in Hong Kong.
When He Yingqin told Chiang Kai-shek that Han Liancheng had come to Yan'an, Chiang Kai-shek scolded He Yingqin: If you hadn't forced him to Lanzhou, he wouldn't have gone to Yan'an!
Old Jiang did not have the slightest doubt about him.
It was a lot of people who doubted him. Li Xianzhou, who was captured in the Battle of Laiwu, was later remodeled in a prisoner-of-war camp of the People's Liberation Army, and the second batch was pardoned. Amnesty is that he was added to the prime minister himself because he was a student of Whampoa I, the prime minister.
At the banquet for the amnesty of the convicts, Li Xianzhou did not ask anything else, but when he saw the premier, he asked curiously: Why did Han Liancheng escape as a person who was fine?
The premier did not answer directly, and asked him to ask Han Liancheng directly, because Han Liancheng was successful in Beijing. Li Xianzhou seemed to understand, and he did not ask Han Liancheng.

Unlike the Kuomintang officers who revolted, Han Liancheng was a comrade on the hidden front of our Party. When I first read maijia's spy war novels "Dark Calculation", "The Sound of the Wind", and Long Yi's "Latent", I felt that the heroes of the hidden front inside were so determined that there was no literary color of the novel in it, but recently read this "Invisible General Han Liancheng" (by Xue Zhengchang) and "Han Liancheng Legend" (written by The General's son Han Jing) but felt that the true story was more wonderful than the novel. #读书跨年季 #

Many people don't understand why Han Liancheng is like this. Dead, he could have used Chiang Kai-shek's platform to soar, but he took a different path.
Zhang Zhizhong once asked Zhou Enlai: "Han Liancheng is one of The most trusted people of Chiang Kai-shek, and he is definitely not a 'miscellaneous soldier' in the eyes of the people, and he is very important." Why would such a person be bent on the Communist Party? ”
Zhou En: "This is the power of faith!" ”
I think that in addition to what Premier Zhou said about the power of faith, there is also the personality charm of the prime minister and the chairman
Han Liancheng first met Liu Zhidan in Ma Hongkui's army, and learned about communism from Liu Zhidan.
Later, he had contacts with Chiang Kai-shek, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, and others, and although these people were all good to him and co-opted him, he also saw selfishness and corruption in his eyes.
After coming into contact with Communists such as Wang Ruofei, Dong Biwu, Li Kenong, and Zhou Enlai, he felt that these people were different from those in his original life.
He himself had read the chairman's writings and admired the chairman's ideas and innovations.
He talked to the Prime Minister, who was very impressed by his wisdom, foresight, meticulousness, and concern for him.
The personality charm of these ancestors is also an important reason for attracting Xiang Han to become such a person.
In 1984, Han Liancheng died of illness, and his last words were: What the party asked me to do, I did.
Tears and tributes.
