Chapter 21 Chapter 8 Military Command, Special Advanced Course, No. 76

Having talked about the battle of open swords and clear guns, let's now pay attention to another fierce anti-Japanese battlefield. This battlefield is commonly known as the "hidden front". The protagonists of the "hidden front" are familiar to everyone. They are portrayed in those popular spy war dramas as inhumane terrorist organizations that love to persecute progressive forces-the Kuomintang secret agents, which is the Zhongtong introduced in the previous article. and military command. Although the Central Command and the Military Command are both secret service agencies and occasionally have business overlaps, theoretically speaking, their business scope is very different.Zhongtong's business work is concentrated on party affairs, such as monitoring its own loyalty and cracking down on opposition parties, especially the Communist Party... If you want to use an analogy, Zhongtong is similar to the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) in the United States. It is mainly responsible for investigating work within.The military command is different, mainly responsible for external work, similar to the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) in the United States today.

I talked about the history of the inheritance of the military system, but did not talk about the history of the growth of the military system.This is because the military system was mainly developed during the War of Resistance.Because the Chinese nation needs a strong team of special agents to disrupt, contain, and attack the enemy's troops in front of and behind the enemy, and eliminate traitors and spies, so as to cooperate with the frontal battlefield to win. In view of this, Chiang Kai-shek gave Dai Li's military commander frequent preferential policies and gave the green light.

One of the early green lights given by Generalissimo Jiang to Dai Li was to appoint Dai Li as the political special commissioner of the Zhejiang Police Academy (referred to as "Zhejiang Police").Don't underestimate the "Zhejiang Police". At that time, unlike now, every province had its own police academy. The "Zhejiang Police" was one of the few professional police academies in China. Dai Li recruited many talents from the "Zhejiang police", such as Mao Wanli (the younger brother of Mao Renfeng), Wen Qiang (the cousin of Mao Zedong), Jiang Yiying (the only female general in the military command) and Hu Zongnan's Mrs. Ye Xiadi and others.Basically, it can be considered that the "Zhejiang police" can also be regarded as one of the cradles of military reunification.

To say that the biggest green light given by Generalissimo Jiang to Dai Li must be to let him be responsible for organizing another "range team" besides Kang Ze-"Jiangsu-Zhejiang Action Committee Range Team" (hereinafter referred to as "range team"). During the Battle of Songhu, Generalissimo Jiang ordered Dai Li to go to Shanghai to organize a "Range Squad", responsible for containing and attacking the Japanese army on the Songhu battlefield, and cooperating with the regular army in combat. Relying on Dai Li's own ability, Chairman Jiang's Shangfang sword, the help of his good friend Du Yuesheng, and the high anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the people, he quickly managed a "range team" with more than 10,000 people.Although the members of the Einsatzgruppen are all kinds of people, including educated youths, unemployed workers, citizens, and even members of gangs and "hooligans", which can be described as "mixed with fish and dragons", there are nearly 1,500 members of the Einsatzgruppen. The cadres are fairly reliable, mostly from the Whampoa Military Academy, the Nanjing Central Police Academy and the military command itself, and even veterans drawn from the front lines of the Anti-Japanese War.

As soon as the "Range Squad" was formed, it immediately entered the tragic battle of Songhu.Such a team with insufficient equipment and no formal military training was directly put into the battlefield, and the result can be imagined.According to Wen Qiang, a special agent of Lieutenant General of the Military Command, later recalled that there were only more than 2,000 people left in the ranger. But just these two thousand people have become the "kindling seed" of the military command. In 1939, the remaining unit was reorganized as the "Military Committee Loyalty and National Salvation Army", that is, the team to which Hu Chuankui and Diao Deyi belonged in the model play "Shajiabang" - the Loyalty and National Salvation Army.Obviously, the Loyalty and National Salvation Army is not a "traitor army" as stated in the lines of "Shajiabang".Of course, because the "Loyalty and Nation Salvation Army" also fought guerrillas in the Jiangsu generation behind enemy lines, and was adjacent to the New Fourth Army, there were indeed many frictions between the two sides.

The Loyalty and National Salvation Army, an anti-Japanese paramilitary organization, had a staff of 50,000 at its peak and was the main force of the military command. In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the military command, Dai Liman hired first-class special agent instructors with high salaries all over the world, and opened various professional technical training courses, from shooting, blasting, poisoning, telecommunications, and anti-detection, to the "Loyalty and National Salvation Army" as the main body. Agents are fully trained. For example, Yu Lexing is one of the best instructors.This person’s background is not simple. He had worked as a part-time student in France, majoring in chemistry and mechanics. He was once in charge of the "Chinese Communist Youth League in Europe" alongside Zhou Enlai and Deng Xiaoping. He once went to the Soviet Union to receive intelligence. Organized the special training of "Cheka", he was an instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy, he was the party secretary of the Ye Ting Independence Regiment, and he also participated in the Nanchang Uprising.

However, all the glory came to an abrupt end after the Nanchang Uprising.After the Nanchang Uprising, disappointed with the future of the revolution, he left the Communist Party, and then joined the military reunification and became the head of the military reunification spy training institution, which is equivalent to the current training director.Zhongyu Zecheng's "alma mater" Qingpu technical training class is in charge of this person.Even his brother-in-law and special agent Shen Zui were brought into the army by him. To some extent, Dai Li is also a person who keeps pace with the times.He felt that domestic spy technology and equipment were not sophisticated enough, so he specially introduced advanced technology and equipment from the United States and trained a large number of first-class spy talents.As for the way to introduce American technology and equipment, it is to cooperate with the United States to establish the "Sino-US Special Technology Cooperation Institute".

Of course, in order to become an excellent agent, one must not only have excellent skills and equipment, but also have a strong ideological style.But how can we ensure that both technology and politics are tough? Dai Li has a method, a method he has come into contact with when he was in the rivers and lakes, a very vulgar and old-fashioned but very effective method-to formulate good rules and ask the members of the military command to swear to abide by them, otherwise they will be severely punished.Members must take an oath when they formally join the army. I won’t go into details about the process of members of the military command swearing an oath to the artistic photo of leader Chiang Kai-shek. Here we only talk about two very key rules Dai Li made for the military command.

Rule 1: Contribute to the group for life... If there is any leakage of secrets or violation of discipline, I am willing to be punished most severely. In other words, the military command is a lifelong system. Once you join the military command, you will be born as a member of the military command and die as a ghost of the military command.Dai Li's move is too cruel, once he joins the army, he will have to work for the rest of his life, even if he wants to be loyal!Want to quit halfway?No way, since the promise of "willing to suffer the most severe sanctions", then the Central Committee has plenty of ways to deal with you.Furthermore, most of the people who are willing to join the military order are here to save the country and the people. They have a very pure spiritual pursuit, and the oath is from the heart. It is not like most of the oaths today are reduced to show.

Rule 2: During the Anti-Japanese War, marriage is not allowed. This one may seem unreasonable, but it actually makes sense.When a person is married, he naturally has one more (wife) or even two (if he has children) to worry about. Once he is arrested, the probability of problems is much higher than that of single people.Like Fu Zhigao, the famous Communist traitor in "Red Rock", his wife was captured by Kuomintang agents, and his will collapsed. Strictly speaking, there is one flaw in the plot of the TV series: during the Anti-Japanese War, Yu Zecheng not only had an affair with Zuo Lan, but also claimed to get married, and later had a "wife" Wang Cuiping.This should be placed in the real military command, Yu Zecheng has been punished a long time ago, not only will he lose his job, but he may also be imprisoned, so there is no need to talk about lurking.

Dai Li is not only good at training spies, but also has good management skills. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, under Dai Li's fruitful work, most of the spies of the military command went deep into the enemy's rear, fighting desperately with the enemy on the dangerous secret front - attacking the enemy's communication lines, blowing up warehouses, destroying bridges, assassinating, instigating rebellion, collecting intelligence, Launching a financial war, etc., will do everything possible. Among these methods, assassination is obviously the most effective deterrent method. In February 1939, Chen Lu, the "Minister of Foreign Affairs" of the Nanjing Puppet Reform Government, was assassinated by military commander Liu Geqing. In August 1940, Chen Gongshu, the ace killer of the military command, personally commanded Zhang Xiaolin, one of the "three tycoons of the Green Gang" in Shanghai, to be shot dead by Lin Huaibu, a peripheral member of the military command. In October 1940, Fu Xiaoan, the mayor of Shanghai under the Nanjing puppet government, was hacked to death in a dream by Zhu Shengyuan, a peripheral member of the military reunification. There were dozens of bodyguards for Chen Lu, Zhang Xiaolin, and Fu Xiaoan. They were heavily guarded, and they were all in the base camp in the enemy-occupied area, but they were still killed.This undoubtedly created great psychological pressure on those who wanted to be traitors: being a traitor could not escape the bullets of the military command, and not being a traitor would be a big deal to avoid bullets from the Japanese.Left and right is a death, it is better not to be a traitor and get a good reputation.In this way, there will be fewer traitors. The setting of the military system is based on the "station" as the unit.For example, the military unified Beijing station, the military unified Nanjing station and so on.Because of a TV series, the Military Command Tianjin Station has become the most familiar synonym for the Military Command in our hearts. According to Shen Zui, a veteran of the military command, at least 18,000 members of the military command died heroically during the Anti-Japanese War, most of them were secret agents at various stations.Why is the loss of military command so great?Because their opponents are two powerful spy organizations-Super High Class (Section) and No. 76. Before the establishment of the special high school (section), it was the Japanese Black Dragon Association, headed by Aoki Nobujun, who had been tinkering with information in China. They used the name of tourism to secretly draw maps and inquire about information.After Aoki Nobusumi became old, he was succeeded by Rihachiro Sakanishi mentioned earlier, who founded the secret service agency "Sakanishi Mansion", which deceived the Beiyang government headed by Yuan Shikai, and even helped count the money when he was sold. With the deepening of Japan's aggression against China, semi-official organizations such as the Black Dragon Society and the "Banxi Mansion" were no longer sufficient, and the Japanese had to find another way.As a result, a brand-new organization came on the scene, it was called the Special Advanced Mission Section (Section), or the Special Advanced Police Section (Section).In short, it is generally referred to as super high class (subject), and for the convenience of writing, it is called super high class. The purpose of the establishment of the Super High School is very clear: everything serves the Japanese invasion of China. The super high school was first established in the Northeast, and its leader, Kenji Doihara, a "sly man of prey", should be familiar to everyone.Doihara is more careful, bold, vicious and shameless than his master Sakanishi Rihachiro and ancestor Aoki Nobusumi. Doihara has done a good job of keeping the secrecy secret, and no one knows the exact time when the Super High School was established.But it should have been established after 1913, because Kenji Doihara came to China in 1913. Although Doihara has a bad stomach, he is indeed a good agent. Starting from Japan’s national conditions—there are many prostitutes and China’s national conditions—the opium epidemic, he had an idea and thought of a good way to start a business—spies in brothels. The three religions and nine streams of the brothel gather together, and all kinds of news spread in all directions, which is very convenient for intelligence collection.As a result, Doihara inserted many highly educated spies into brothels in Shenyang, Harbin and other places.These spies, while relying on selling lust to spy on intelligence, also run a sideline business - selling opium, which not only solves the funding problem for the super high school, but also makes those valuable guys addicted to cigarettes, which is easy to control. Kill three birds with one stone!Doihara is worthy of being a little dark master. Under the leadership of Doihara, the work of the super high school was done in a splendid manner, everything was orderly, fast and efficient. The "Huanggutun Incident", "September 18th Incident", "Manchurian Independence", "January 28th Incident" and "North China Autonomy" and other major invasions of China were mostly related to Doihara and his ace spy Kawashima Yoshiko et al. Seeing that the boy Doihara has made the super high school popular, the high-level officials in Japan have moved their minds to make the super high school bigger.As a result, the Japanese Gendarmerie and the Japanese Police Department at all levels have an additional department called the Special Higher Section.Therefore, when we watch anti-Japanese or spy war-related film and television dramas, we can always see the evil super-high class in the Japanese military police and other institutions. After explaining the special high class, let's take a look at another spy agency controlled by the Japanese. No. 76 is the abbreviation of No. 76 Jisfeier Road, Shanghai, and its scientific name is "General Headquarters of Secret Service Work of the Central Executive Committee".The "central" in this name refers to Wang Jingwei's pseudo-central, and No. 76 is the seat of this institution.Compared with No. 76, the scientific name "Central Executive Committee Secret Service Headquarters" is too difficult to remember, so no one knows it. The backer of No. 76 is Japanese, but the workers are all Chinese. Ding Mocun is the first in command of No. 76, and Li Shiqun is the second in command.In addition to the great commonality of "only doing bad things and never doing good things", these two people also have one thing in common: they are both traitors to the Communist Party. In the early years, Dingmo Village was directly under the leadership of the Hunan Party and Youth League of the Communist Party of China. He joined the Kuomintang during the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and stayed there afterwards, becoming an agent of the Central Unification.Because of his good business ability, he later became the director of the postal inspection department of the "Investigation and Statistics Bureau". This Ding Mo village has a big weakness - money worship, especially corruption. In April 1938, Zhang Guotao escaped from Yan'an and defected to the National Government. It was the former "comrade" Ding Mocun who was in charge of receiving Zhang Guotao.As a result, Ding Mocun actually embezzled the expenses allocated by the government to entertain Zhang Guotao. With less money, he couldn't do enough to entertain Zhang Guotao. Zhang Guotao was very dissatisfied that he didn't eat the fragrant ones or drink the spicy ones.Whether Zhang Guotao is in a good mood or not, Ding Mocun doesn't care at all.But he didn't know that a cold gaze was projecting behind him. The owner of this gaze is Dai Li. Zhang Guotao, whom Ding Mocun offended this time, has a special status in the Communist Party and has a high value of use.Therefore, Dai Li made a wishful thinking: if he can get Zhang Guotao's loyalty to the military commander at the price of offending Ding Mocun, it will be a good deal. Therefore, Dai Li sued Dingmo village in front of Chiang Kai-shek, saying that Dingmo village had embezzled hospitality fees and abused defectors. There are all witnesses and material evidence, and the ironclad evidence is as strong as a mountain. Before the summer of 1938 arrived, Ding Mocun was suspended, and Zhang Guotao successfully joined the military reunification. Li Shiqun's experience is very similar to Ding Mocun's. Li Shiqun was originally a member of the Communist Party of China, a special agent of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Zhou Enlai's bodyguard. He was arrested by the Central Committee in 1932. He did not have the courage to "kill me and not tell", so he defected and surrendered within a few days and joined the Central Committee. However, this Li Shiqun is a person with high emotional intelligence.This guy did not confess all the Communists who had ties with him in the Central Committee, but protected them as much as possible; at the same time, he concealed the fact of his apostasy from the CCP. In other words, the Central Committee believes that Li Shiqun is one of its own, and the CCP dare not be 100% sure that he has rebelled. As a result, Li Shiqun became a double agent. At that time, Li Shiqun's public identity was a senior editor of the Shanghai "Social News" magazine, and his leader was the president Ding Mocun. At the end of 1937, after the fall of Nanjing, Li Shiqun was ordered by the Central Commander Xu Enzeng to lurk in Shanghai. By 1938, China was retreating on the frontal battlefield, and almost all the big cities fell.Li Shiqun completely lost confidence in the confrontation. In his view, China is about to perish, and there is no need for him to "sacrifice" with China.So, this kid rebelled again and took the initiative to seek refuge with Kenji Doihara, the boss of the super high school. Kenji Doihara was eager to control Shanghai at the time, and on Chinese soil, the Chinese had far more advantages than the Japanese as spies.So Doihara paid money, guns and equipment, and ordered Li Shiqun to establish a traitor spy organization as soon as possible. That's how No. 76 was established. Li Shiqun felt that his appeal was not enough, so he turned against his old superior, Ding Mocun.As a result, the two worked very well on the 76th.But Doihara was not very reassured about these two guys, so he arranged a Japanese military police team for No. 76, and his duty was naturally to monitor the traitors and spies in No. 76, large and small.In addition to Doihara, the Japanese military was also worried about No. 76, so the Japanese established a special agency in Shanghai: the Mei Agency, which was responsible for monitoring No. 76 and the puppet National Government headed by Wang Jingwei. Both Li Shiqun and Ding Mocun were born in the CCP and later served in the Central Committee. It can be said that they are very familiar with the operation of Chinese spy organizations.Therefore, under their planning and arrangement, the KMT's spy organizations in Shanghai and Nanjing were devastated.The military system is particularly miserable. At that time, most of the anti-traitor tasks in the occupied areas were completed by the military command. In just two months in the autumn of 1939, the military command killed more than forty traitors, big and small.As a result, No. 76 fought back fiercely under the leadership of Li Shiqun.For a while, a large number of military-led grassroots organizations were destroyed, and a large number of military-led secret agents were arrested. Even the military-led ace killer (then Shanghai district chief) Chen Gongshu, the Nanjing district chief Qian Xinmin, and the fourth war zone major general Dai Xingbing were all successfully captured by Li Shiqun. For a while, there was panic in Shanghai. Dai Li was in a hurry, and told Zhou Fohai: You go and talk to Li Shiqun, just make up your mind, don't go too far! Are Dai Li and Zhou Fohai familiar?Why did he say this to Zhou Fohai? Zhou Fohai ran to Nanjing with Wang Jingwei to form a puppet national government before. He thought that once the government on his side opened up the situation, Chiang Kai-shek's government on the other side would not be able to survive, and his side just happened to take over the national power.But he never expected that the Japanese would basically be unable to fight after the "Wuhan Battle", and the Chiang Kai-shek regime seemed to be unable to fall for a while.Just at this time, Dai Li sent military agents over to instigate rebellion. Zhou Fohai was so happy that he stepped on two boats, and he became a fence-sitting faction ever since.On the one hand, it works for the puppet regime, and on the other hand, it serves the military. Under Zhou Fohai's operation, Juntong and No. 76 had a temporary truce: as long as you don't mess with me, I won't mess with you. The following story is a bit too infernal, and the Central Command, the Military Command, No. 76, and the Special High School all have a share. Among Zhang Ailing's short works, there is a story called Infernal Affairs. The content of the story is roughly as follows: Wang Jiazhi, a beautiful, sexy, and soft anti-Japanese heroine, may be moved by the generosity of the other party who is willing to spend a lot of money for her, or perhaps out of lust, she fell in love with a sinister, cruel, Mr. Yi, an old, wretched, perverted and shameless traitor, even sacrificed the young lives of himself and his comrades to protect the traitor. Of course, if it hadn't been made into a pornographic film by Ang Lee, it is estimated that not many people would know this story. Eileen Chang is a typical young woman in literature and art. It is easy to write about love, sadness, hesitation, and petty bourgeoisie. But how could she know the inside story of this eerie struggle between the enemy and puppet secret agents, and thus write such a "true" story? The secret lies with her husband.Zhang Ailing had a traitorous husband named Hu Lancheng, who was working in Wang Jingwei's government at the time.Zhang Ailing heard some pretentious clips from Hu Lancheng's mouth, and then combined her and Hu Lancheng's emotional experience to create a story of "love-hate entanglement". Although the plot is basically fictional, the protagonist is still reliable.The prototype of the anti-Japanese heroine in the story is Zheng Pingru, and the prototype of the seduced traitor Mr. Yi is Ding Mocun. Zheng Pingru's father, Zheng Yue, studied at Hosei University in Japan in his early years, and later followed Mr. Sun Yat-sen to run the revolution.His mother, Kimura Hanako, followed Zheng Yue to participate in revolutionary activities in China.In other words, Zheng Pingru was not only born in a revolutionary family, but also of mixed Chinese and Japanese blood. At that time, there was a pictorial in China called "Liangyou", and its influence in China was roughly similar to that of "Time" in the world.And Zheng Pingru used to be the cover girl of "Good Friend". Needless to say, her beauty was naturally a first-class beauty at that time. In 1937, under the double influence of the family and the current situation, 19-year-old Zheng Pingru was introduced to the Zhongtong by Chen Lifu's cousin, Chen Baohua, the head of the Zhongtong Shanghai area, out of patriotic enthusiasm, and served as an intelligence officer for the Zhongtong Shanghai area.Under Zhongtong's deliberate arrangement, Zheng Pingru, who is outstanding in acting, pretends to be a young girl who has no experience in the world, and "unexpectedly meets" Ding Mocun, the prey planned by Zhongtong. village captivated. The heat has come, Zheng Pingru invites Ding Mocun to his home for a talk.Because Zhongtong plans to start near Zheng's house. Faced with the affectionate invitation of a super beauty, especially such a seductive invitation to come to the house, I am afraid that with the willpower of an ordinary man, it is really impossible to refuse.It stands to reason that the old pervert Ding Mocun has no reason to refuse.But when the car was about to arrive at Zheng Pingru's home, he suddenly changed his mind and turned back. An old spy is an old spy. Although he is good at fishing, he takes his own life more seriously. If you don't succeed the first time, you can only keep trying. At this time, Zheng Pingru's immediate boss changed from Chen Baohua to Zhang Ruijing.Zhang Ruijing ordered Zheng Pingru to find a way to lure Ding Mocun to a leather goods shop in Shanghai—Siberia Leather Goods Store, where he had already arranged killers. But after all the arrangements were made, Zhang Ruijing was betrayed by a traitor and was arrested by Li Shiqun.Li Shiqun was born in the Central Committee, and Zhang Ruijing was an old acquaintance.When acquaintances met each other, Zhang Ruijing was very happy, and he recruited them all before the torture. Surprisingly, Li Shiqun didn't know what his intentions were, but he didn't make this matter public.He not only protected Zhang Ruijing, but also sent snipers to ambush near the Siberia fur shop. On the afternoon of December 21, 1939, Ding Mocun was dragged into a Siberian fur shop by Zheng Pingru.Zheng Pingru pretended to go to the side to pick out leather clothes, distanced herself from Ding Mocun. The best time to kill Ding Mo Village has come! But at this moment, relying on his intuition of being a spy for many years, Ding Mocun seemed to have a premonition of something, and suddenly ran out with the momentum of "The Flash" Bolt winning the Olympic 100-meter championship.His car was parked on the side of the road, with the engine still on, the driver was always ready to respond, and the door was of course open.Ding Mocun jumped into the car and shouted to drive. At the same time as the sound of gunfire, the car was already speeding out. The opportunity was fleeting, and the killers sent by Zhongtong and Li Shiqun all returned empty-handed. After Ding Mocun escaped from danger, he wiped off his cold sweat and thought about it carefully. It was Zheng Pingru’s suggestion to visit the Siberia leather goods store, but the killer was lying in ambush there. There is only one possibility, Zheng Pingru and the killer are on the same team. Next, Zheng Pingru was arrested as a matter of course. The Japanese originally wanted to use Zheng Pingru's life to threaten his father Zheng Yue to take up the post of the puppet government, but the upright Zheng Yue flatly refused. On the execution ground, Zheng Pingru uttered the last sentence to the executioner: help me, hit more accurately, and don't mess me up. After the sacrifice of his daughter, Zheng Yue couldn't get sick, and died of hatred in early 1941. Three years after Zheng Yue's death, Zheng Haicheng, Zheng Pingru's younger brother, flew a plane to fight the Japanese invaders in the sky during the Chongqing Defense War, and died heroically. Half a year later, Zheng Pingru's fiancé, Air Force Colonel Wang Hanxun died. It's full of loyalty! What happened to Li Shiqun, he wanted to assassinate Ding Mocun? At No. 76, Li Shiqun belongs to the veteran entrepreneur, while Ding Mocun belongs to the new employee.But under the arrangement of the Japanese, the veteran Li Shiqun could only subserviently serve as the second in command under Ding Mo Village, which made Li Shiqun very unconvinced. Therefore, Li Shiqun began to form gangs, and made every effort to make up his mind to bring down Dingmo Village. Therefore, Li Shiqun maintained a disconnected relationship with the Central Committee, such as protecting Zhang Ruijing and assassinating Ding Mocun this time. At the same time, under Zhou Fohai's effective operation, Li Shiqun had an affair with Dai Li's military commander, such as covering Yu Xiangqin, the station chief of the military commander's Shanghai station, to escape. What's worse is that Li Shiqun has also been in close contact with Pan Hannian, the head of the CCP's secret service in Shanghai.Guan Lu who works next to Li Shiqun is the CCP liaison officer.The public identity of Red Agent Guan Lu is one of the three most famous female writers in Shanghai, the other two being Ding Ling and Zhang Ailing.There is a song that everyone must be very familiar with: "The fragrance of flowers comes in spring, the sun is shining brightly in the sky, and it shines on my rags..." Guan Lu is the lyric of this song lyricist. Li Shiqun is number 76, but he has been ambiguous with the Central Command, the Military Command, and the CCP. Could it be that he, like Zhou Fohai, is also a fence-sitter? Facts have proved that this speculation is not without basis. In September 1943, Li Shiqun died of amoeba poisoning, which supports this speculation. Li Shiqun was originally in good health, but just two days before the onset of the disease, he went to a banquet hosted by Shizo Okamura, chief of the Special Higher Section of the Japanese Shanghai Gendarmerie.Li Shiqun showed signs of poisoning soon after eating.After Li Shiqun died unexpectedly, Wang Jingwei buried him generously, but did not investigate the cause of his death.This low-key handling seems to be a strong proof of Okamura's statement that Li Shiqun was poisoned.However, this matter still leaves many unsolved mysteries. Is it the Japanese rabbit dead dog cooking?Obviously not, the national government at this time is still very strong. Is that the Central Command or the Military Command to eliminate traitors?It's not like, according to the habits of the military or the central government, if you get rid of a super traitor like Li Shiqun, you will definitely declare that you are responsible for the matter with great fanfare, so as to kill chickens and monkeys, and boost the morale of the anti-Japanese by the way.But after the incident, no one claimed responsibility. Could it be that Li Shiqun is a latent CCP agent who exposed his identity?If this is the case, then the Japanese should not use assassination methods, but should declare the punishment and torture, and dig out more valuable information from Li Shiqun. If Li Shiqun was assigned to lurk by the anti-Japanese forces, then his death is a sacrifice, and the person who assigned him should credit him with rewards.But even after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, there was still no movement from the Central Command, the Military Command, or the CCP, which just shows that this person is indeed a traitor. That being the case, there seems to be only one answer left: Although Li Shiqun is not a hidden spy of any party, he is a faction on the fence and pleases all sides. People also have scruples, so the super high class can only choose assassination. As mentioned before, on the secret front of the military command against Japan, one of the important tasks is financial operations. It is said to be financial warfare, but it is actually printing counterfeit money. The Japanese printed counterfeit banknotes, and the national government also printed them, and then the agents of both sides tried to spend them in the other's control area. While solving their own shortage of funds, they could also hit the other's economy, killing two birds with one stone. From the end of 1938, the Japanese began to replace the original legal currency (paper currency issued by the national government) with newly issued counterfeit currency in the occupied areas.At the same time, the big devil Yamamoto Xianzang began to lead his little devils to print fake legal currency. The printing of counterfeit banknotes by the Japanese is different from the counterfeit banknotes printed by today's gangsters. When they print counterfeit banknotes, they let the best technicians in Japan participate in the whole process of design and production.Moreover, the equipment and raw materials used by the Japanese were all seized from the National Government's banknote printing factory.In other words, the "fake banknotes" printed by the Japanese are genuine at all.As of the surrender of Little Japan in 1945, a total of more than 4 billion yuan was printed, which can be called the most counterfeit money in the world.You know, in 1937, the total amount of legal tender in China was less than 1.5 billion. Kenzo Yamamoto worked day and night to print counterfeit banknotes.He originally planned to wear down his body rather than regret his career.But in the end, the body was worn out, but the regret was also left behind. Because he never imagined that the national government issued a total of nearly 500 billion French currency in the Kuomintang-controlled area in order to cope with the huge war expenses of the War of Resistance Against Japan under the condition of shrinking territory and population and stagnant income.The little money he printed with all his pains could not even make a splash when he threw it in. Kenzo Yamamoto was completely convinced: China is really a daunting country! Come and not reciprocate indecently.The national government decided to return it to him in the same way.Isn't it just printing counterfeit money, we will too.The national government set up a counterpart organization "Economic War Room against the Enemy" to purchase first-class paper and printing equipment from the United States, and then hired first-class technical experts from the United States and Britain. At the same time, it selected the technical elites of the Bank of China Mint. Geleshan established a joint venture counterfeit banknote factory to print counterfeit banknotes day and night, comparing with the banknote printing version of the Japanese puppet bank that Dai Li obtained from Zhou Fohai.Since then, the counterfeit money has flowed into the enemy-occupied areas continuously, causing prices to skyrocket and causing heavy losses. In contrast, the Communist-controlled border regions were barely affected.The communist-controlled area does not use legal currency, but issues its own banknotes, commonly known as "border currency". In addition, the economic aggregate of the communist-controlled area is limited, so it is not worth the effort. The Japanese had to abandon the "border currency" and print legal currency. . After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the national government made a major mistake in cleaning up the financial system that had been messed up by both sides, which led to hyperinflation, while the side currency of the Communist Party was very strong.Historians generally believe that the collapse of the financial system was an extremely critical reason for the Kuomintang's final defeat in Taiwan. For spy organizations like the Military Command and the Central Command, it is extremely difficult to evaluate their achievements. Both because the struggle on the covert front is extremely complicated: spies, especially double agents, can easily arouse suspicion, even from one's own camp.To this day, many historical materials are still full of contradictions. Some historical materials consider heroes and martyrs to be accused of traitors in others. It is also because these two organizations have been doing two completely different things: while fighting against their own compatriots, they are fighting to the death with the common enemy of the Kuomintang, the Communist Party, and the entire Chinese nation—the Japanese invaders and their vassals. For example, Ma Hansan, the head of the Beiping station of the military command that arrested Yoshiko Kawashima, was still suffering on the front line of the Anti-Japanese War yesterday. He was secretly executed by the military command's own people on charges of "rebellion, defection to the enemy, and corruption" just after victory. For example, Cao Kun's eldest grandson-in-law, Bai Shiwei, the famous military assassin who assassinated the traitor Zhang Jingyao, was an anti-Japanese hero before, but he seized the Communist Party during the Liberation War. For example, Wang Tianmu, one of the "Four King Kongs" under the military command, was still sanctioning scum for the country and nation yesterday, but was arrested the next day and fell into the water as a traitor, becoming the target of sanctions by his colleagues. All these kinds, and so on.It can only be said that that era was too special, and the special era created such a special group of people.Throwing one's head and blood is a kind of sacrifice, and enduring humiliation is even more a kind of sacrifice, because this process is more cruel and painful.The only thing future generations can do is to cherish in the depths of their spirits those fighters who truly gave up love and family for the country, ideals, and beliefs, defying hardships, and shedding blood.Few people may know their names, but their deeds will last forever! Finally, a brief account of the fate of those creepy names that have appeared in this book. Before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Xu En was "removed from his post and never hired" for smuggling arms. After conquering the last woman, Hu Die, the actress of Shanghai Bund, the romantic Dai Li, with a lot of puzzles, died in a plane crash in Daishan, Nanjing, in March 1946 on a day of dark clouds and thunder.Dai Ji hit Dai (Dai) Mountain, and Yunong (Dai Li's character) died in the rain. Dingmo Village at No. 76 was executed two years after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. On the special high school side, Doihara was the first to be hanged as a Class A war criminal, and Yoshiko Kawashima was also sentenced to death.
