In August 1945, the Japanese army invading China announced its surrender, the whole country rejoiced, and Zhou Hao, a military commander who had been lurking around the traitor Zhou Fohai for 2 years on the orders of Dai Kasa, was even more relieved, and secretly decided in his heart that when things were handled, he must go home and accompany his parents for a period of time.
However, what Zhou Ho did not expect was that he was responsible for taking over the Japanese puppet regime in Nanjing, and after only 3 days of work, he was imprisoned on the grounds that he was guilty of "embezzlement".
This crime made Zhou Ho indignant, and he immediately wrote a letter to his immediate superior, Cheng Kexiang, the governor of the Beijing-Shanghai District of the Military Commandery, hoping to help him get justice, but Cheng Kexiang's reply made Zhou Hao's heart sink to the bottom.
In the letter, Cheng Kexiang told Zhou Hao that what he did in the occupied areas was entirely a personal opinion, that the Beijing-Shanghai district was not responsible, and that Cheng Kexiang could not help it.
Soon after, Zhou Hao heard another news, Zhou Fohai actually said that he did not know Zhou Hao as a person at all, and the Nanjing government did not "know" the "misdeeds" led by Zhou Ho...
When things got to this point, where would Zhou Hao not understand that he was cooked by a dead rabbit dog? Suddenly, discouraged...
Zhou Ho's career as a spy
Zhou Hao, a native of Luotian, Hubei Province, came from a local peasant family, and although his family was poor, his parents still shrunk their clothes and dieted for him to study.
In 1924, the 14-year-old Zhou Ho was admitted to the private Chengcheng Middle School in Wuhan, and gradually germinated revolutionary ideas, and in 1927, the 17-year-old Zhou Ho was admitted to the Wuhan branch of the Central Military Academy, but soon the school was controlled by Chiang Kai-shek.
At that time, Yun Daiying, Deng Yanda and others had great influence on the school, and once, during a political test, Zhou Hao actually showed anti-Chiang Kai-shek feelings, and also refused to admit his mistake, so he was expelled from the school.
After leaving the Wuhan campus, Zhou Ho defected to the Nineteenth Route Army in Shanghai, and in 1933 participated in the "Fujian Incident" led by Li Jishen and Cai Yankai, but unfortunately, the incident failed, the Nineteenth Route Army was abolished, helpless, Zhou Ho could only go home and make plans.
On the way home, Zhou Hao was hunted down by military agents, and was arrested when passing through Hankou, but coincidentally, the commander who interrogated Zhou Ho was an old acquaintance of Zhou Ho, and instead of interrogating Zhou Ho, he tried his best to woo Zhou Ho to join the military command, and promised not to blame him in the past.
Zhou Hao could not resist the enthusiasm of this old acquaintance, and at the same time did not want to go to jail, so he agreed to join the military command to try.
Because of his good performance, in 1935, Zhou Hao became a full member of the military command and was transferred to work at the Wuhan station, but not long after, Zhou Ho was censored for his improper speech, but thanks to the guarantee of Zhou Weilong, the core figure of the military command, he was released from prison.
Being able to get Zhou Weilong as a guarantee also made Zhou Ho look up to people in the military command, Zhou Hao also ate a long and wise, began to formally do this job, and gradually began to be promoted, in 1936, Zhou Ho was promoted to the military commander Guiyang post and telecommunications checkpoint director; in 1940, as the inspector of Guangdong Province, in 1941, transferred back to the Chongqing Military Command Bureau, as the chief of the colonel's section, has become a person dai Kasa relied on.
At the beginning of 1943, Zhou Hao received an order from Dai Kasa to contact Zhou Fohai, but at that time, Zhou Fohai was a red man of the Wang puppet regime, and he had no time to pay attention to Zhou Hao, and Zhou Hao's wait was half a year.
During this period, Zhou Hao was idle, wandering around Nanjing, and made many good friends, one of whom was Xu Chuguang, an underground party member, who was the person who changed the fate of Zhou Hao in the second half of his life, and will talk about it later.
Soon, in July 1943, Zhou Hao finally met Zhou Fohai, at this time, Zhou Hao learned that the reason why Zhou Fohai wanted to see himself was exposed by the radio station in contact with Chongqing, and through him to "exchange information" with Chongqing.
Soon, under zhou Fohai's arrangement, Zhou Hao also became a "traitor" and served as the chief of the sixth section of the Wang Pseudo Military Commission, and at the same time secretly formed the Nanjing Station of the Military Command.
Both Chiang Kai-shek and Dai Kasa attach great importance to Zhou Ho and promote him to the rank of major general, and in the process of contact with Zhou Ho, Zhou Fohai also saw Zhou Ho's ability and used him extremely heavily.
However, the more you know, the faster you die.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, neither Chiang Kai-shek nor Dai Kasa wanted his contact with Zhou Fohai to be made public, so Zhou Hao, who knew the inside story, became the target of being eradicated.
On August 12, 1945, Zhou Fohai was appointed commander-in-chief of the Beijing-Shanghai Action Corps, while Zhou Ho, who served as the commander of the Nanjing Command, began to take over Nanjing step by step, and searched around to arrest traitors, so busy that he did not even have the kung fu to sleep.
But 3 days later, Zhou Ho was arrested and imprisoned, originally thought that this was above the clouds, but it turned out to be a prisoner under the ranks, which made Zhou Ho how not to hate?
Fortunately, after only 5 months in prison, Dai Kasa, the head of the military command's secret service, destroyed the plane and killed people, and the military command's custody of Zhou Hao was not so strict.
From "bad political drive" to revolutionary martyrdom
After his release from prison, Zhou Hao hated Chiang Kai-shek and Zhou Fohai, and in September 1946, he gathered his subordinates and planned to add some blockage to Chiang Kai-shek and Zhou Fohai during Zhou Fohai's trial.
To this end, he has threatened on some occasions that he will testify on behalf of Zhou Fohai in court, and he has also printed small leaflets exposing the inside story between the military command and Zhou Fohai, intending to distribute them during the public trial, and has also planned to abduct Zhou Fohai to the Liberated Areas and try him in the Liberated Areas, but because the number of people is too small, it has not been realized.
During this time, his underground party friend Xu Chuguang often went in and out of Zhou Ho's home to persuade Zhou Ho and his wife to go to the Liberated Areas and live a new life.
Zhou Ho also wanted to change the environment, and at the same time, Zhou Ho's wife Wu Xueya also wanted to go, so Zhou Ho nodded in agreement.
Of course, Zhou Hao also had some other ideas, he wrote in his diary: "When I became a Communist Party, I was indeed driven by bad politics, and my wife should feel the same way..."
However, after arriving in the Liberated Areas, his thinking changed rapidly, and the arduous struggle of the officers and men as one and the vigorous vitality of the people under his rule all gave Zhou Hao a great touch, and after reading some of Chairman Mao's works, he was even more enlightened.
In November 1948, when the Battle of Huaihai began, Zhou Hao accepted the organizational arrangement and rushed to the front line to take up the work of plotting against Sun Liangcheng's department.
Under the premise that Zhou Hao continued to lobby and the PLA soldiers were in the city, Sun Liangcheng eventually led his troops to surrender to the PLA.
After persuading Sun Liangcheng to surrender, the organization arranged for Zhou Hao and Sun Liangcheng to plot against Liu Ruming.
What Zhou Hao did not expect was that Sun Liangcheng, who surrendered Kaesong, would secretly rebel against the water, and after the two went to see Liu Ruming, Liu Ruming immediately arrested Zhou Hao and sent Zhou Hao to Nanjing in a hurry.
As for Zhou Hao, Chiang Kai-shek hated and feared, and directly ordered that Zhou Hao be secretly killed, and when he was sacrificed, Zhou Hao was only 39 years old.
The widow who waited for 16 years
When Zhou Hao died, his youngest daughter was only 3 months old, and the saddest thing was his wife Wu Xueya.
Zhou Hao's original wife was named Li Huachu, and Zhou Hao was a fellow villager, in the early years, Zhou Hao went to school outside, came into contact with revolutionary ideas, and after returning to his hometown, he once gave a speech on stage, which attracted the attention of Li Huachu, a rich woman, and the two fell in love, but this love affair was opposed by Li Huachu's father, and for this reason, he also staged a family robbery drama.
After marriage, the husband and wife had a very good relationship, married for many years, and had a total of 3 children.
In 1943, when receiving the order of Dai Kasa and going to Zhou Fohai's side, Zhou Hao and his wife and children parted, and later, Li Huachu and his 3 children were taken to Chongqing, and the Chongqing government took care of Li Huachu's mother and son, and Li Huachu also had been looking forward to the return of her husband.
Zhou Hao, who successfully broke into the interior of Wang Pseudo, soon became a figure with a head and a face, and this was a high-ranking official, and he didn't even have a wife. Therefore, Zhou Ho married his wife Wu Xueya.
Wu Xueya is a native of Hangzhou, when the two met, she was studying law at Southern University, and she knew zhou ho's identity for a long time, and she also admired this hero who went deep into the tiger's den for the sake of the country.
After marrying Zhou Hao, Wu Xueya single-mindedly helped Zhou Hao, and during Zhou Hao's imprisonment, he did not abandon him, and after Zhou Hao secretly joined the organization, he followed Zhou Ho to live a frightened and frightened life, and even made up makeup to ventilate the comrades, and then followed Zhou Ho to the Liberated Area.
After Zhou Hao's death, Wu Xueya settled in Shanghai and spent the rest of her life accompanied by her daughter.
Compared with Wu Xueya, Li Huachu's fate is much more bumpy.
After separating from her husband Zhou Hao in 1943, she heard the news of her husband again, it was already 1946, when she rushed to Nanjing step by step, Wu Xueya had already married Zhou Hao, and how much heartache she had at that time could be imagined.
But Li Huachu is an enlightened woman, after learning that her husband and Wu Xueya are married, it is a work need, during her husband's imprisonment, Li Huachu did not abandon, she chose to accept Wu Xueya, and she went out to rent a house.
In Nanjing, Li Huachu and her husband Zhou Hao were not reunited for many days, and Zhou Haoyi took Wu Xueya to the Liberated Areas in 1948, and since then, Li Huachu has not heard from her husband.
In order to find a husband, Li Huachu entered the Liberated Area of Northern Jiangsu with 3 children, but Northern Jiangsu is so big, how difficult is it to find someone? In the end, Li Huachu could not find a husband and returned to her hometown with three children, even if Zhou Hao died in 1949, she did not know.
A friend told Li Huachu that Zhou Hao had gone to Taiwan, but she denied it, because she knew Zhou Hao and knew what happened to him in those years, and she decided that it was impossible to go to Taiwan.
Li Huachu's mother and son, who returned to their hometown, had an extremely difficult life, but fortunately, Zhou Hao had written a letter to his family, mentioning the revolution in the letter, and the school gave Li Huachu's 3 children a bursary.
In the midst of poverty and hardship, Li Huachu struggled to survive, although she knew that her husband's chances of survival were slim, but in her heart, she always looked forward to the day when her husband could appear in front of her again.
In this way, Li Huachu waited for 16 years until his death in 1965, and did not wait for her husband to return, according to Li Huachu's son's recollection, when his mother died, his eyes were still open...
A few months after Li Huachu's death, Zhou Hao was finally posthumously recognized as a martyr by the government, but unfortunately, this scene, Li Huachu failed to see, if she could see the martyr certificate earlier, perhaps, she would go more peacefully, right?
