"Red Rock" hero Xu Yunfeng's realistic prototype made a fatal mistake

[Mistake in the hurry, "Xu Yunfeng" unfortunate in the middle of the plan]

People who have read the novel "Red Rock" know Xu Yunfeng, Jiang Jie, Cheng Gang, Liu Siyang, these glorious images that people are both touched and admired. There is no doubt that they are all heroes who are awe-inspiring and see death as a return.

However, recently, in a large number of materials provided by Li Hua, director of the Gele Mountain Revolution Memorial Hall, it was seen that "Xu Yunfeng" had made unintentional mistakes and caused serious consequences.

As we all know, the prototype of Xu Yunfeng's life is Xu Jianye, the secretary of the Chongqing underground party in charge of the labor movement.

Xu Jianye, who goes by the pseudonym Yang Qing, was arrested and anxious because in the box under his bed in his dormitory, there were 17 workers' applications to join the party and three party documents. He couldn't care less about the pain in his body, and he was preoccupied with how to send the news out. The guard Chen Yuande found his anxiety and took the initiative to approach Xu Jianye, falsely claiming that he was from a poor background, pretending to be sympathetic, and saying that "if there is something to support, please do as you are told."

At this time, Xu Jianye could not take care of much, as long as there was a glimmer of hope to fight, plus was confused by Chen's illusion, he let Chen Yuande take paper and pencil, wrote a desperate letter to his mother and a letter to Liu Dehui of Zhicheng Company, asked Chen to send it quickly, and promised that after the letter was delivered, the other party would give him 40 million French dollars, and would be responsible for introducing the work in the future.

Chen Yuande quietly opened the letter after reading it, thinking that this information is very important, if it is sent out, but only 40 million French dollars (at that time the price soared, 40 million French dollars is about 1,000 yuan today), but also have to worry about playing with the brain shell, the benefits of the boss are more, so he handed the letter to the boss Lei Tianyuan. The letter was immediately delivered to Xu Yuanju, director of the second section of the Kuomintang Chongqing Appeasement Office and head of the secret service. Xu was ecstatic after reading it, and later he confessed: "Based on this material, I immediately sent people to surround the Xinhua Road Zhicheng Company, conducted a strict search, found Out Yang's IDENTITY card and its history, and found a large leather bag in his bedroom, which contained more than a dozen applications for party members to join the party and a large number of "Advance Newspapers", only to learn that his name was Xu Jianye. ”

Xu Yuanju sent a large number of spies to wait for Zhicheng Company day and night, only allowed to enter and not leave, to arrest one by one, and on the other hand, to send people to trace the background of Zhicheng Company. Zhicheng Company is a subsidiary of Chongqing Electric Power Company, with Huang Dayong, head of the accounting department of the electric power company, as the chairman of the board and Zhou Zexun, chief of the general affairs section, as the manager. Xu Yuanju summoned Huang and Zhou to the case, and Huang Dayong confessed that Liu Dehui, head of the accounting team of the power company and manager of Zhicheng Company, was a member of the Communist Party. Xu Yuanju also arrested 17 people (6 people were shot and killed) according to the application for joining the party obtained in Xu Jianye's wallet, "according to Tu Suoji", one by one.

Guard Chen Yuande was rewarded with three consecutive grades for his meritorious service in secretly reporting intelligence, and was promoted from the guard to lieutenant.

However, the situation was far from over, and the cunning Xu Yuanju certainly knew how to continue to expand the results from the gap that had been opened.

【Thrilling "Dominoes"】

On the morning of April 6, 1948, Liu Guoding, member of the Cpc Chuandong Provisional Committee and secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, and Tu Xuxun of the Jiangjin County Party Committee came to Zhicheng Company to find Xu Jianye. Liu was in front of him, and as soon as he entered the door, he was blocked by the agents who were waiting. Employees of Zhicheng Company alleged that he often came to xu Jianye, and Liu was immediately detained. Then Tu Xuxun leaned into the door, saw that the situation was not right, and took the initiative to ask the agent: "I have several tires, can I mortgage here?" The agent scolded, "Roll! Fuck off! Tu was able to get out. After Liu Guoding's arrest, Xu Yuanju personally interrogated him, and Liu Guoding admitted that he was "an alternate party member who had just joined the party" and compiled a story about Xu Jianye sending a letter to Li Zhongliang and Yu Tian on the south bank.

On the evening of April 8, Xu Yuanju, with a group of agents, led by Liu Guoding, arrested Li Zhongliang, Yu Tian, and others who had evacuated to Chongqing after participating in the failed armed uprising in Daxian County.

At 1 p.m. on April 9, after Xu Yuanju was sentenced to duck floating water and tiger stools, Li Zhongliang's ideological defense line completely collapsed, calculating that "my family is rich, there are more than 30 stone rents, there are more than 100 square meters of land in the city, there are food and clothing, why should they suffer from this", betrayed the organization and comrades.

After Li Zhongliang's defection, he took spies around to arrest people, and during the interrogation, Li not only took notes, but also acted as a lobbyist, appearing and saying "rebellion": "You should quickly confess, I was also a communist before, and if I confess, I can get leniency." Am I not living well now? Because Li Zhongliang was determined to act as an eagle dog, he was "freed" on October 20, and in November Xu Yuanju arranged for him to become an spie in the detection and defense brigade of the reconnaissance department. After liberation, Li Zhongliang was executed.

According to Li Zhongliang's confession, Xu Yuanju secretly arrested Yu Yong'an, and after a short surprise execution, Yu Yong'an immediately defected, confessing that his associate was "Lao Zhang".

On the morning of the 17th, Yu Yong'an identified "Lao Zhang" on the street, and the agents flocked to grab "Lao Zhang". "Lao Zhang" shouted while resisting, hoping to attract the crowd to watch, so as to take advantage of the chaos to escape. The agents pushed "Lao Zhang" into the upstairs room of the street hotel, picked up the quilt and pressed "Lao Zhang" down on the bed, covering him tightly, making him breathless and struggling desperately. After a while, "Lao Zhang" confessed his identity, admitting that he was Ran Yizhi, deputy secretary of the Chongqing Underground Party Committee, identifying Liu Guoding, who had been arrested, as secretary of the Chongqing Municipal CPC Committee, Xu Jianye as a member of the municipal party committee and secretary in charge of the workers' movement, and liu Guozhi, secretary of the special branch of the Shaci Student Movement, and Liu Zairongchang's hiding place, and so on.

On April 18, Xu Yuanju retried Liu Guoding. Just one "Liu Guoding, secretary of the municipal party committee," was like a blast of thunder hitting Liu's head.

Liu Guoding initially wanted to grit his teeth and pass, but after more than 3 hours of heavy punishment, Liu Guoding finally collapsed.

After Ran Yizhi and Liu Guoding (the prototype of Fu Zhigao in the novel "Red Rock") successively became traitors, they competed to betray their comrades to the enemy in order to seek merit, and even personally led secret agents to arrest underground party members, so that Jiang Zhujun, Chen Ran, Luo Guangbin, Cheng Shanmou, Liu Guozhi, Li Wenxiang, and hundreds of others were arrested one after another.

Unlike Ran Yizhi and Liu Guoding, the rebellion of Li Wenxiang, secretary of the underground party district party committee, is very thought-provoking. After Li Wenxiang was arrested, he allowed the enemy to be tortured and tortured, tried three times, and beat him to death twice. When the agents persuaded him with the rebellion of his superiors Liu Guoding and Ran Yizhi, he laughed at their pity in awe. The agents had no choice but to take him to the White Mansion in shackles and handcuffs. In prison, Li Wenxiang thinks about his arrest and is more concerned about his wife Xiong Yonghui, who was arrested and imprisoned with him in the slag cave shortly after his marriage. When the agent takes him to the scum cave to meet his wife, his feelings suddenly become very fragile, and the wife encourages him to keep fighting and not to be afraid. However, Li Wenxiang's love for his wife softened his revolutionary will. Back in his cell, he began to weep bitterly and said to Chen Ran, who was in the same prison: "After ten years of joining the party, when the secretary was in charge of underground work, he suffered for so many years, and it was hard to hope that the revolution would be victorious. Why is reality so unfair to me? Don't talk about the situation, don't explain, maybe my wife will be pulled out and killed one day... Why is fate so cruel to me? Chen Ran saw that Li Wenxiang was depressed and had enlightened him many times.

The agent seized on Li Wenxiang's fragile feelings and asked him to meet with his wife regularly. Once, the agent again asked him to meet his wife and told him, "If you have anything to say, hurry up and finish, this is the last time you will meet your wife." We will not kill you for the time being, but your wife first, because she is of no use to us. ”

Li Wenxiang could put his life aside, but he loved his wife too much, and in order to save her life, he decided to confess and told Chen Ran of his plan. Chen Ran tried his best to stop it, and even proposed: "If you really want to turn yourself in, I will jump off the building and commit suicide!" Li Wenxiang said: "Liu Guoding and Ran Yizhi, who are more important than me, have all defected, and the two places want me to choose such sharp two paths, either surrendering myself or shooting, I have nothing to do with the revolution when I die, and a few more traitors like me will never affect the victory of the Chinese revolution. On December 22, 1948, Li Wenxiang, who had been imprisoned for eight months, rebelled against the revolution and confessed to He Bailiang, Cheng Qianmou and 16 others, resulting in the martyrdom of 6 people.

Li Wenxiang was awarded the rank of captain by the secret service agency for his "merits" and became a secret agent with a dead heart. In February 1951, the Chongqing Municipal People's Court sentenced Li Wenxiang to death.

Xu Yuanju was rewarded by three superiors of the Chongqing Appeasement Office, the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense, and the Secrecy Bureau for his meritorious service in destroying the Zhenjin Bao and the Chongqing underground party organization. According to Shen's recollection: "Mao Renfeng has always believed that the first of the three most proud achievements since he presided over the Secrecy Bureau was that in 1948, Xu Yuanju, director of the second section of the Chongqing Appeasement Office, cracked the organization of the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China in Chongqing." As a result of the rebellion of Liu Guoding, the secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, nearly 200 underground workers in Chongqing and other parts of Sichuan were arrested. Mao Renfeng attached particular importance to this work, and specially sent Ye Xiangzhi to Chongqing to assist, and brought Liu Guoding to Nanjing, hoping that he would sabotage the organization of the Yangtze River Bureau of the CPC. After handling this case, Mao Renfeng praised Xu Yuanju greatly; in addition to giving him a first-class medal for land, sea, and air and a bonus of 500 million French dollars, he also decided to set up a special zone in the southwest, appointing Xu Yuanju as the head of the district, responsible for leading the work of the four southwestern provinces, and mobilizing the military, police, constitutional, and special powers of the four provinces in order to concentrate forces on undermining the CPC's underground party organizations. ”

【How Luo Guangbin evaluates Xu Jianye】

From this, what unfolds before our eyes is a clear clue: because Xu Jianye was caught in the ruse of the secret agent guard Chen Yuande, Liu Dehui was arrested -- Liu Guoding came to Liu Dehui and fell into the hands of the secret agent who guarded the rabbit -- Liu Guoding reservedly betrayed Li Zhongliang and others (Liu Guoding's many important situations and interrogations were exposed by Ran Yizhi), Li Zhongliang followed up and gave Yu Yong'an - Yu Yong'an confessed "Lao Zhang", As a result, Ran Yizhi was arrested—Ran Yizhi again confessed Liu Guoding's concealed identity as the secretary of the municipal party committee, causing Liu Guoding to completely defect—the two main leaders of the underground party rebelled, and the Chongqing underground party was almost completely destroyed.

At the end of 1949, new China had been founded, and Luo Guangbin successfully plotted a rebellion in the White Mansion and organized 19 people to escape from prison. After the successful escape from prison, Luo Guangbin kept himself in his home, wrote a book of more than 20,000 words, and wrote a "Report on the Destruction of the Party Organization in Chongqing and the Situation in Prison." The seventh part of the report is "Opinions of Comrades in Prison"—the eight opinions of the imprisoned revolutionaries on the future ruling party, the last-minute bloody and tearful exhortations of revolutionary martyrs.

The article in the report, "Never despise the enemy and strictly carry out rectification of the whole party," is mainly aimed at major mistakes in the work of the leading comrades in the party. For example, due to Comrade Xu Jianye's negligence, he did not strictly abide by the discipline of underground party work and did not burn 17 applications for joining the party, which directly led to the arrest of 17 workers' party members and the sacrifice of 6 people, and the indirect losses were even more tragic.

On the eve of the liberation of Chongqing, Ran Yizhi met Li Xiukai, deputy head of the Southwest Special Zone of the former Secrecy Bureau, who had already surrendered himself. The big traitors and big spies are pulling at me on the downtown street, and they all want to grab each other and make a contribution. The surrounding crowd was unknown, so they watched in groups. After the two men grabbed and quarreled and came to the public security bureau together, Ran Yizhi was sentenced to death, and before his execution, he wrote a suicide note, asking that his body be "abandoned to the deserted countryside and rot with the grass and trees."

Liu Guoding confessed to the secret service organs a more weighty situation in order to ask for credit: the address of Qian Ying, the leader of the Shanghai Bureau of the CPC Central Committee. He also personally took agents to Shanghai to arrest Qian Ying, and because Qian Ying had been transferred to Hong Kong, he was emptied. In Nanjing, Liu Guoding was received and rewarded by Mao Renfeng for his "active anti-communism and outstanding achievements", and the secret service awarded him the title of "Lieutenant Colonel Commissioner", and then he was promoted to the commissioner of the Chongqing Xingyuan Investigation and Defense Office together with Ran Yizhi. On January 16, 1950, Liu Guo, who had fled to Chengdu, surrendered himself to the Public Security Department of the Chengdu Municipal Military Control Commission, and on January 19, 1951, he was publicly shot in Chongqing to comfort the souls of the martyrs who died in heaven.

Xu Jianye credulously trusted chen yuande, and made a mistake in a hurry, when he saw Liu Dehui and others arrested and imprisoned for his reasons, he was in pain, and he hit the wall three times in prison, hit his head and broke his head and tried to commit suicide. On July 21, 1948, Xu Jianye was publicly shot and killed at the Daping Execution Ground. On the way to the execution ground, he sang the "Internationale" all the way and shouted "Long live the Chinese Communist Party."

Luo Guangbin's evaluation of Xu Jianye in the same report to the party organization was that "ten times he tortured the thief and cursed the thief, and calmly carried out the righteousness of Changhong."

Heroes who have made mistakes are still heroes and will never become obsolete; what is outdated can only be those who are over-exalted and deliberately deified.
