Chapter 258 10. Fan Hanjie was captured, and Mrs. Fan got 10,000 yuan in gold coins

After the People's Liberation Army invaded Jinzhou, it was discovered that Fan Hanjie, Lu Junquan and other important officers had absconded in disguise.The Northeast Field Army Headquarters required all troops to set up prisoner checkpoints at important intersections and conduct strict inspections. If Fan Hanjie and other important officers were found, they should immediately report to the Field Army Headquarters and the Political Department. After Fan Hanjie, Lu Junquan, Li Ruhe and others were separated, he fled with his adjutant and concubine.He could not find the Kuomintang troops in the mountains east of Songshan Mountain.Nearby villages are filled with PLA troops.The city of Jinzhou was ablaze with flames all night, and the sound of explosions continued throughout the night.Before dawn, Fan Hanjie lived in a small shack on the east side of Songshan Mountain, and traveled day and night.

They hid in a peasant's house, exchanged gold bars for several sets of peasant clothes in the countryside, and changed their outfits.He asked the guards and his concubine to go first to Qinhuangdao, and then take the train to Beiping to find Fu Zuoyi.It was too conspicuous for him to walk with the young woman by himself.Each of them carried some gold bars with them. He did not expect that the guard officer would soon be seized by the People's Liberation Army and confessed his hiding place: Gu's shack 20 miles southeast of Jinzhou.The People's Liberation Army has stepped up searches and interrogations.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Fan Hanjie walked to the mountain trail between Chenjiatun and Tashan via Songshan.When he crossed the road from Xihaikou and Gaoqiao to Jinzhou, he was intercepted by the lurking sentry of the People's Liberation Army. That night, he moved with the People's Liberation Army. Fan Zisi, as the commander of the front army, lost his troops and land, and could not escape Chiang Kai-shek's so-called "revolutionary joint sitting method", and the crime of the long-term war with the People's Liberation Army, after being captured, there is no reason for him to escape.In order to die quickly, he declared his identity: "I am Fan Hanjie." He was immediately transferred to the prisoner's shelter at the headquarters of the 9th Column and the headquarters of the Northeast People's Liberation Army.

He absconded on the evening of the 14th, and Fan Hanjie and Lu Junquan were seized by the 9th in the afternoon of the 15th.When Fan Hanjie and Lu Junquan were sent to the headquarters of Niutundong, Liu Yalou jumped up happily and said, "Fan Datou has been caught!" Lin Biao and Luo Ronghuan talked to Fan Hanjie, asking about the battle situation and his opinion.Fan said despondently: "This move (referring to Jinzhou) can't be done by non-talented people. Jinzhou is like a shoulder pole. One end picks the northeast and the other picks the north. Now it is interrupted." He also said: "You attack Jin battle, the artillery fire was fierce, unexpectedly, our artillery fire was suppressed. Wherever we went, the artillery fire followed, and the artillery shells kept falling on the position of our command post. Your troops approached and dug trenches very well , very proficient, we cannot see the operation of the troops from the ground, and we cannot organize shooting and counterattacks. This is something we have never expected. Your troops fought bravely and charged bravely, and the situation is irresistible..."

After Lu Junquan was captured, he always thought of being an enemy of the People's Liberation Army.After several years of civil war, what hope is there now for being captured?Unexpectedly, the next day after being captured, he was received by Lin Biao.Lin Biao asked this Huangpu classmate: "I sent someone to send you a letter in a carriage, did you not receive it?" Lu said that he did not receive it. Lin Biao also said: "You can communicate with the 60th Army." Lu Junquan immediately prepared a telegram to Commander Zeng Zesheng of the 60th Army, to the effect that all Jinzhou defenders had been wiped out.I hope that there will be no more resistance, and it is impossible to resist any more.The lives of Fan and Lu must be well taken care of. The next day, they will be sent to Harbin along with other captured officers above the division level.

On the morning of the 15th, Tang Yunshan, who was stationed in Huludao by Fan Hanjie, contacted Fan with a wireless phone, but he couldn't get through.Everyone expected that Jinzhou was doomed, and Fan Hanjie's whereabouts were unclear. The Port Command has a battalion of guards in Huludao, responsible for guarding the dock warehouses. The soldiers are recruited from Jinxi, Gaoqiao, and Tashan areas. They are very familiar with the terrain and can identify the way even in the dark.Most of the officers and soldiers are from Guangdong, and they are willing to do something for Fan.They wanted to form a company of light plainclothes teams, go around the line of fire, search forward separately along the road, and pick up Fan Hanjie.Tang Yunshan said: "This is a child's play, it's useless. First, you can't get through the front line. Second, if Fan breaks out, he will definitely bring troops with you. Are you still needed?" Que Hanqian joked: "The 54th Army and the Communist Army are stuck together. , can’t send troops. The guard battalion at the port has feelings for Boss Fan. Tang Yunshan didn't open his mouth.

The people looking for Fan Hanjie hadn't been dispatched yet. The front line of the 62nd Army sent someone to bring Fan Hanjie's wife to Chen Tie, Gui Yongqing and others.Fan's wife cried and complained that she had fled south with Fan Hanjie when Jinzhou City was broken.She also said: "The communist troops I saw along the way were very orderly, with many horses and guns, not like the guerrillas in the past." These words caused great panic among the commanders of the Kuomintang army, fearing that the People's Liberation Army would soon attack Huludao.Guo Chan, the commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang's joint logistics, wrote a note to the logistics organization: "I was ordered to give Mrs. Fan a gold dollar coupon of 10,000 yuan." This is the price of losing Fan Hanjie.This is still without asking for instructions in advance, Guo Chan made the decision.

Since Fan Hanjie was captured, Chiang Kai-shek has shown little concern.
