After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the northeast region immediately became the focus of contention between the Kuomintang and the Communists.
Because the northeast region has rich mineral resources, but also has a certain industrial base, transportation is very convenient; coupled with the surrender of Japan, the northeast is in a vacuum of power, as long as it can take the lead in taking the northeast, it will certainly be able to win the support of the people, which is conducive to the stability of the regime. As long as the People's Liberation Army successfully occupies the northeast, the northeast will become the rear area of our army and will also be connected with the liberated areas of north and east China, and the situation will become very favorable to our side.
What contributed to the smooth victory of our army in taking the northeast was our protagonist today - a major staff officer of the Nationalist army.
During the Liaoshen Campaign, the Kuomintang and the Communists faced each other in the northeast, and in order to enable our army to win the advantage, this major staff officer of the Nationalist army risked his life and directly formulated a fake order, which caused the 89th and 54th divisions of the Kuomintang 13th Army to be completely annihilated. Since then, Du Yuming has had to change his original battle plan, from active attack to all-round defense, and our army has completely gained the initiative in the war.
In order to save himself, the staff officer of the Nationalist major broke into our position on October 16, 1947. The People's Liberation Army's wandering sentry saw him looking like a major staff officer of the Nationalist Army, so they vigilantly raised their guns and aimed them at him, and ordered him to stand. Subsequently, they sent it to the company headquarters, and eventually to the Liaonan Military Region one by one. After meeting the commander of the military district, the agent said: "I am a 902 intelligence officer, you can verify my identity with the central government." ”
Soon, after the true identity of the staff officer of the major colonel of the country was verified, he was personally received by Chen Yun, political commissar of the Liaodong Sub-bureau, and Xiao Jinguang, commander of the Liaodong Military Region.
So, who is this staff officer of the Nationalist Major who claims to be code-named 902?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="90" > the real identity of codename 902</h1>
This agent code-named "902", his real name is Zhao Wei, his reputation in the secret service circle can be regarded as known to everyone, everyone knows, including Zhao Wei in the "Ten King Kongs" in the history of modern Chinese secret agents, who has been undercover for a long time in the top of the Kuomintang Northeast Army.
Zhao Wei's parents have received a good education, the family style, Zhao Wei himself is also very fond of learning, he was successfully admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy Guilin Branch at the age of 20.
During his time at the school, Zhao Wei systematically learned a number of military skills, and each of the achievements was outstanding, so he was personally received by Chiang Kai-shek. At that time, students from the Whampoa Military Academy had always been very popular with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and Zhao Wei was particularly concerned. In order to win Zhao Wei to serve himself, Chiang Kai-shek also gave him a Zhongzheng sword, and for a while, Zhao Wei was in the limelight at school for a while.
After graduating from the military academy, Zhao Wei did not enter the front-line combat unit as he expected, but was assigned a job training new recruits. He did a very good job, and the recruit training results he brought out were the best in the whole army, so he was very popular with his superiors, and he was promoted as soon as his probationary period expired.
In the eyes of others, Zhao Wei's career is so smooth that people are jealous, but all this is not what Zhao Wei wants. From the moment he stepped into the military academy, he wanted to go to the forefront of the anti-Japanese resistance to serve the country.
Zhao Wei
After some ideological struggle, Zhao Wei decided to give up his life in front of him and go to Shaanxi to join his old superiors, hoping to get a chance to kill the enemy there. But this wish was not fulfilled. At this point, Zhao Wei could not return to his original post, in order to seek a way out, Zhao Wei found his old classmate Zhu Jianguo to help.
Zhu Jianguo directly took in Zhao Wei. Although the Kuomintang was in the period of the Anti-Japanese National United Front at that time, and there was much cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Kuomintang secretly set up a secret organization to deal with the Communist Party, and Zhu Jianguo worked in such an organization.
In the course of his mission, Zhu Jianguo confiscated many pamphlets and books printed by the Communist Party, and Zhao Wei could not help but have some curiosity, and he often took advantage of Zhu Jianguo's inattention to secretly read these books.
Zhu Jianguo had already discovered Zhao Wei's small actions, but he not only did not stop Zhao Wei, but he was also somewhat happy to see it, because Zhu Jianguo's real identity was actually an underground party. When he saw that Zhao Wei was interested in these books, Zhu Jianguo immediately had the idea of developing Zhao Wei into a comrade, so he often guided Zhao Wei from the side. After a period of time, Zhao Wei was also more convinced of the revolutionary ideas of the Chinese Communist Party.
Zhu Jianguo had been paying attention to Zhao Wei's changes, but at that time he was in the period of the anti-Japanese national united front, so Zhu Jianguo was not eager to absorb Zhao Wei as his own. However, after the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the contradictions between the Kuomintang and the Communists had been fully exposed, and it was the best time to develop Zhao Wei into a comrade at this time.
Later, Zhu Jianguo directly confessed his identity to Zhao Wei and invited Zhao Wei to join the Chinese Communist Party. Zhao Wei was not surprised by this, but seemed to have waited for a long time, and he directly agreed after Zhu Jianguo proposed it. Subsequently, the organization assigned Wang Shijian to be responsible for directing Zhao Wei, a senior cadre of the CCP Intelligence Bureau. As soon as they met, Zhao Wei expressed his desire to contribute to the revolution in Yan'an, but under the persuasion of Wang Shijian, Zhao Wei also realized that his staying within the Kuomintang to obtain intelligence would contribute more to the organization.
Subsequently, Wang Shijian educated and trained Zhao Wei in intelligence work. Considering that Zhao Wei was in the middle and high levels of the Kuomintang, and there was also a large network of contacts to obtain intelligence, it was a very important intelligence officer, in order to maximize the safety of Zhao Wei, Wang Shi resolutely adopted the method of "single-line contact" so that Zhao Wei only maintained contact with his own line and did not have contact with other underground workers.
After Zhao Wei had thoroughly mastered how to conduct intelligence work, the organization began to assign him secret missions. In order to facilitate communication and to ensure Zhao Wei's safety, Zhao Wei obtained the code name "902" personally granted to him by Li Kenong.
Since then, Zhao Wei has been secretly lurking in the enemy camp, and only a small number of people know of his existence, and the code name "902" is even less known.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="89" > changed the entire Northeast war with a single false command</h1>
At the beginning of 1947, the War of Liberation had already broken out, and both the Kuomintang and the Communists were stationed in the northeast, and it was inevitable to win against the northeast. At that time, Zhao Wei was serving as a major staff officer of the Kuomintang Northeast Command, responsible for marking the northeast combat situation on the map, and also needed to regularly compile the Kuomintang troop garrison table, and these secrecy levels were top secret.
From this information, Zhao Wei was able to analyze the specific operational arrangements of the Kuomintang.
In order to be able to keep abreast of the Kuomintang's operational deployment, Wang Shijian also sent another underground CPC member, Yuan Ze, to join Zhao Wei and be responsible for passing on the news. However, due to various restrictions and limited information transmitted, in order to be able to transmit more information, the underground party tried to set up a secret radio station, and since then Zhao Wei has provided a large amount of information to the central intelligence department through the radio.
In April 1947, Du Yuming ordered the Kuomintang 13th Army to go to Shenyang, and Zhao Wei saw that the Kuomintang had made a big move, but he did not know the specific departure time of the army.
Du Yuming
In order to be able to figure this out, Zhao Wei saw the information he wanted at the headquarters of the 13th Army under the pretext of visiting his classmates. After figuring out the Kuomintang's arrangements, Zhao Wei immediately returned to the headquarters to think about the next countermeasures.
In order to stop the 13th Army, Zhao Wei could only make a dangerous move, and he forged an order in the tone of the headquarters and issued it to Shi Jue, the commander of the 13th Army, ordering the other side to carry out a rapid march to Sanyuanpu in Niighama and occupy the commanding heights of Lanshan at all costs. At that time, our army had already laid out a position in Lanshan, and lanshan was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and as long as the 13th Army entered the position, there would certainly be no return.
Later, the 13th Army did indeed want to capture the commanding heights of Lanshan according to the instructions of the telegram, but our army waited for work and directly annihilated the opposing 89th Division and the 54th Division, which bankrupted Du Yuming's plan. After this battle, the Kuomintang suffered heavy losses, Du Yuming was forced to change his original strategy, began to move from the offensive to the defensive stage, and the People's Liberation Army also gained the initiative on the battlefield.
Du Yuming, who returned to the headquarters, was very angry and wanted to pursue responsibility for the defeat on the battlefield, but in the end he found out that the troops were strictly in accordance with the orders issued by the headquarters, but the investigation still did not find out, so the matter of false orders ended in this way.
For Zhao Wei's action, the party organization gave high recognition.
Subsequently, the Siping Defense War broke out, and Zhao Wei's intelligence once again played a huge role, causing our party to seriously damage the enemy army, and the Kuomintang's strength in the northeast had been completely suppressed. For Zhao Wei's outstanding performance, the Party Central Committee also specially sent a telegram to commend him.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="67" > flee after their identities are exposed</h1>
Chiang Kai-shek was very disappointed with Du Yuming's performance on the battlefield in the northeast, and directly removed him from his post and arranged for Chen Cheng to take over his work. After Chen Cheng arrived in the northeast, in order to control the situation, he directly abolished the headquarters of the northeast security commander, and the power of the party, army, and government was concentrated in Chen Cheng's hands, and after doing all this, he ordered Zhao Wei to go to Beiping to report to Chiang Kai-shek in person.
After arriving in Beijing, Zhao Wei first met with his old classmate Ji Qiren, and during the conversation between the two, Ji Qiren mentioned that Zhu Jianguo was a Communist Party member and had been arrested, along with more than a dozen people arrested. This made Zhao Wei feel critical, in order to get in touch with the underground party in Beiping and pass on information, Zhao Wei had to risk finding Wang Xiao, and after arriving at Wang Xiao's residence, Zhao Wei realized that Wang Xiao was probably already less fierce.
At this time, Zhao Wei's situation was already very dangerous, he and almost everyone he could contact had lost contact, and if someone defected, he would be the next target to be arrested. Zhao Wei was very entangled, he was probably exposed, but he also believed that comrades would not easily defect, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided not to act rashly and return to Shenyang to understand the situation as originally planned.
For the sake of prudence, Zhao Wei did not return to work immediately, but first went to his fiancée's house to inquire about the situation, but the results were not optimistic. In order to further confirm his conjecture, Zhao Wei contacted the Staff Office by phone, and during the conversation, Zhao Wei keenly felt that the other party was inquiring about his whereabouts, at this time, he had confirmed that he had been exposed.
In order to escape the pursuit of the secret agents, Zhao Wei did not dare to delay for a moment, and directly ran to the Hun River to cross the Hun River, temporarily escaping the pursuit first. However, his escape route is far from over, because in this escape, the Kuomintang will certainly spend great efforts to arrest him, and he must rush to the Liberated Areas as soon as possible to be safe.
Along the way, Zhao Wei did not dare to take the main road, and after several days, Zhao Wei turned around and came to the Taizi River, which belonged to the Kuomintang Army's 52nd Army Defense Zone, as long as he successfully crossed the Taizi River into the Liberated Area, Zhao Wei would be truly safe. But just as Zhao Wei was preparing to cross the river, two Kuomintang soldiers stopped him.
Zhao Wei was shocked, but he quickly calmed down and thought of a countermeasure. In the face of the two soldiers, Zhao Wei was imposing, bluntly saying that he was a staff officer of the entourage of the commander of the 52nd Army, and was ordered to go to investigate, and also questioned the two soldiers for the main guest. The two soldiers saw that Zhao Wei was wearing a school-level military uniform, and they were very imposing, and they did not dare to stop him at all, and even got a boat for Zhao Wei to cross the river.
After Zhao Wei successfully crossed the Taizi River, he soon encountered the sentries of the People's Liberation Army. For Zhao Wei, when he arrived in the Liberated Areas, it was like going home, and he directly identified himself as an intelligence officer and wanted to see their commander.
In this way, Zhao Wei was transferred up one level at a time, until the headquarters of the Liaonan Military Region, and his identity was finally verified, and he was personally received by Chen Yun.
Although Zhao Wei, who successfully escaped, ended his undercover career, his contribution to the revolutionary cause was far from over. Although he successfully escaped back to the Liberated Areas, his identity was always kept secret, and it was not until many years after the founding of New China that his identity was made public, and many relatives and friends around him did not know his experience.
