Chapter 36 Lixingshe's Secret Service

We have seen that even before the official establishment of the Lixingshe in February 1932, Chiang Kai-shek had authorized Dai Li to form an independent secret service.The Secret Service was officially established a month later, on April 1, 1932.This day also became the official anniversary of Dai Li's establishment of his secret spy organization, and the commemorative activities became more and more popular every year from the late 1930s to the early 1940s.In the early days of its establishment, according to one of Dai Li's lieutenants, Chiang Kai-shek instructed his students to learn from it, "because when the heroes of Liangshanbo gathered in Zhongyitang, what they did was intelligence and action."

According to the historical records of Dongchang and Xichang in the Ming Dynasty, and novels describing the activities of Xuedizi in the early Qing Dynasty, there are no actual records to check.However, the thirteenth chapter of Sun Tzu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the assassination of Song Jiaoren, Chen Yingshi, and Prime Minister Sun by the Beiyang government in the early Republic of China, and the case of sending a certain gentleman from Guangzhou to Shanghai to campaign the northern warlords, etc., are indeed facts, and there are certain beliefs sign. In addition to advising them to read the novel and study the few modern records of espionage operations in order to understand the murder, Chiang also offered Dai more direct practical help.He stipulated that all personnel issues related to this new department would be handled directly by him, the leader, and he was not allowed to report to Lixingshe.The Secret Service was set up in Dai Li's institution at No. 53, Ji'e Lane, Nanjing, separate from the Lixing Society.
