Zhang Xianyi, a nuclear weapons expert: Is it a hero of the nation or a sinner of the nation?

author:Peep in the cup

As we all know, the treasure island of Taiwan has always been a sacred and inalienable part of our motherland, and in modern times, because of the fight between two brothers in the same house, Taiwan and the mainland are temporarily separated. With the growing mood of the Taiwan people looking forward to their return to the motherland, the reunification of the Chinese nation has become the trend of the times, and Taiwan's return to the motherland has become an irresistible trend of the times!

However, some people in power in Taiwan have acted against the tide of the times for the sake of some of their own selfish interests, not only turning a blind eye to the people's strong expectations for their return to the motherland, and openly colluding with external forces in an attempt to prevent cross-strait reunification, but even more so, they are secretly conducting nuclear research and trying to use extremely powerful nuclear weapons as a "sharp weapon" to prevent cross-strait reunification!

Zhang Xianyi, a nuclear weapons expert: Is it a hero of the nation or a sinner of the nation?

In the Pacific War at the end of World War II, although the US military reported many successes, it was not happy at all, because their victories were based on a heavy price, and it was not too much to describe it as "killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred", coupled with the irrational and crazy way of playing in little Japan, the Americans suffered from deep phobia. Therefore, the Americans are eager to achieve early victory and end the war as soon as possible. So the Americans thought of the "super bomb" they had successfully developed.

On August 6, 1945, the Americans, eager to achieve victory, dropped a "super bomb" on the top of Little Japan, that is, over Hiroshima, Japan, and the "super bomb" released a huge amount of energy at the moment of explosion, instantly engulfing everything in Hiroshima, and Hiroshima was instantly in a sea of fire and became a hell on earth! Three days later, the Americans, who wanted to end the war by "super bombs", once again dropped a "super bomb" on the head of little Japan, of course, not in Hiroshima, but in Nagasaki, a famous port city on the west coast of Kyushu Island, Japan. After Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by U.S. "superweapons," the Japanese Emperor and his senior officials of the militarist government chose unconditional surrender to the United States. Since then, this "super bomb" has been well known to people all over the world, and this "super bomb" also has a well-known name - the atomic bomb!

October 16, 1964, a day that all the sons and daughters of China cannot forget, was the day when China's first atomic bomb was successfully detonated and China became the fifth nuclear power in the world. Of course, this news also made Chiang Kai-shek, who had retreated to Taiwan, really a stirring spirit, fidgeting all day long, drinking tea and tea, eating and eating, and sleeping. Therefore, the terrified Chiang Kai-shek immediately made two decisions: first, urging the United States to completely destroy the mainland's nuclear facilities while the Chinese mainland's nuclear weapons capabilities had not yet grown; second, he disregarded the "Agreement on cooperation on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy" signed between the United States and Taiwan in 1955 and decided to hide from the United States in secretly developing nuclear weapons.

In July 1965, in accordance with Chiang Kai-shek's instructions, the Taiwan authorities began to prepare for the establishment of the "Zhongshan Academy of Sciences", which was the place where Taiwan studied nuclear energy at that time. It took three years for the "Sun Yat-sen Research Institute" to be officially built in the southwest of Taipei City, which is not only beautiful and very hidden, but also full of sentries, so it is also regarded as the most mysterious place in Taiwan by the people of Taiwan.

Soon after the establishment of the Zhongshan Institute of Science, the Taiwan authorities sent a large number of college students to the United States to study, of course, the direction of study is mainly atomic energy technology. Because the United States and Taiwan have previously signed the Agreement on Cooperation in the Peaceful Use of Atomic Energy, the United States has no reason to refuse Taiwan's request, but the United States has a clear attitude: it will not help Taiwan develop nuclear weapons, but it can help Taiwan develop civilian nuclear programs.

In this way, in order to master nuclear skills as soon as possible, the Taiwan authorities secretly conducted nuclear weapons research under the guise of civilian nuclear energy. Moreover, with the help of the United States, Israel, Canada and other countries, the Taiwan authorities have made great progress in nuclear energy research. However, the paper could not contain the fire, and the frequent irregularities of the Taiwan authorities aroused the vigilance of the Americans, and then the Americans sent an expedition to begin to inspect Taiwan, and successfully discovered the secret of Taiwan's secret research on nuclear weapons. Subsequently, the U.S. authorities immediately sent people to dismantle Taiwan's nuclear fuel processing room, and transported heavy water and nuclear fuel, and clearly warned Taiwan to stop research on nuclear weapons. In this way, under the vigorous suppression of the United States, Chiang Kai-shek could only tentatively agree to stop the nuclear weapons research program for the time being.

Although Chiang Kai-shek ostensibly promised the Americans, in fact he did not stop, but carried out in a more secret way, which is the so-called "bright cultivation of dark roads, darkness of Chen Cang." Of course, the true meaning of "cultivating the secret path in the light and the darkness in Chen Cang" was impossible for americans to understand at that time. In this way, the white colt crossed the sunset and came to 1974 in the blink of an eye, that is, the year before Jiang Gong's death. During the year, the CIA immediately reported the news to the White House after learning of the Taiwan authorities' secret research on nuclear weapons. Since then, Taiwan's secret research on nuclear weapons has attracted the attention of the US government.

After Chiang Kai-shek's death, his eldest son Chiang Ching-kuo became the leader of Taiwan. Since then, under chiang ching-kuo's instructions, the Taiwan authorities have once again begun to vigorously develop nuclear weapons research and have made considerable progress. In 1976, during a routine inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the secret of Taiwan's secret nuclear weapons research was discovered, and the United States immediately issued a warning to Taiwan after receiving this news. In the face of strong pressure from the United States and the international community, Chiang Ching-kuo made a pledge that Taiwan would not develop nuclear weapons. Nevertheless, the Taiwan authorities have not really given up the research on nuclear weapons. In 1981, Reagan was elected president of the United States, and reagan changed the previous nuclear energy policy of the United States after taking office, and the Taiwan authorities led by Chiang Ching-kuo seized this opportunity to vigorously carry out nuclear weapons research and manufacturing.

In 1986, Taiwan at this time had made great progress in nuclear research, and at that time, an official of the "Ministry of National Defense" of the Taiwan authorities revealed that the task of the Taiwan Nuclear Energy Research Institute at that time was to complete the manufacture of a nuclear bomb in a short period of time once there was an order. But something unexpected happened to the Taiwan authorities, when Zhang Xianyi, then deputy director of Taiwan's Institute of Nuclear Energy, dashed their dream of building nuclear weapons. On January 12, 1988, Zhang Xianyi took the family to Taiwan Taoyuan Airport by plane in the name of vacation, and then transferred a large number of confidential materials on Taiwan's nuclear weapons research and development to the US government, and participated in a secret hearing to prove that Taiwan's nuclear weapons were close to completion

The intelligence brought by Zhang Xianyi to the United States not only shocked the Americans, but also caused an uproar in the international community. Subsequently, the United States threatened to cancel the "military protection" of Taiwan, and finally forced the Taiwan authorities to terminate the nuclear research program. After the news of Zhang Xianyi's defection and the transfer of all confidential materials on Taiwan's nuclear weapons research and development to the United States was transmitted back to Taiwan, the whole island of Taiwan fell into a state of panic, and the day after Zhang Xianyi defected, Chiang Ching-kuo, the leader of the Taiwan authorities, died of a sudden heart attack. In this way, Chiang Ching-kuo's meticulously planned and deployed taiwan's nearest successful nuclear weapons program collapsed.

Zhang Xianyi was born in 1945 in Taichung, Taiwan Province of China. After graduating from Taichung No. 2 Senior High School in Taiwan, he studied physics at the Taipei Army Institute of Technology, and after graduating in 1967, he was assigned to the Preparatory Office of the Sun Yat-sen Academy of Sciences. In 1969, at the age of 24, Zhang Xianyi was selected by the Taiwan authorities to study nuclear engineering at the University of Tennessee in the United States, that is, at that time, Zhang Xianyi was rebelled by the CIA and became an intelligence officer of the CIA, and began to provide various types of intelligence on Taiwan to the United States. In 1976, at the age of 27, Zhang Xianyi returned to Taiwan and was arranged by the Taiwan authorities to serve at the Sun Yat-sen Institute of Science. In 1984, as the core personnel of Taiwan's secret research on nuclear weapons, Zhang Xianyi was promoted by the Taiwan authorities to the position of deputy director of the colonel.

Because Zhang Xianyi destroyed Taiwan's upcoming successful nuclear weapons program, everyone believes that Zhang Xianyi has eased the situation of cross-strait confrontation, maintained cross-strait peace, and made contributions to future cross-strait reunification. Of course, there are also some people who believe that Zhang Xianyi is a sinner of the nation, because he defected to the United States after breaking away from Taiwan, the mainland and Taiwan are inseparable parts of the motherland, and defecting from Taiwan to the United States means defecting from the motherland and defecting to the United States. Some people even thought that Zhang Xianyi could return to the embrace of the motherland at that time.

We do not look at the process to see the results, Zhang Xianyi defected from Taiwan to the United States, finally stopped Taiwan's nuclear weapons program, finally destroyed Taiwan's imminent success of the nuclear weapons program, and finally maintained cross-strait peace, consolidated the ideological foundation for cross-strait reunification, and did more than excessive, and can be called "a hero of the nation"!
