Chapter 91 Section 3

With the company of loyal secretary Song Qiyun, Yang Hucheng finally got some comfort.In all honesty, when he first arrived in Guiyang, Yang Hucheng still had illusions about being released.He believed that Chiang Kai-shek had retired, Li Zongren was in power, and all orders had been announced. It was just a matter of time before he would be free. Therefore, he paid more attention to reading newspapers and analyzing current events.One day, when the victory of the battle of crossing the river came, he had a premonition that things were not that simple.Chiang Kai-shek not only did not erase the disagreement with him on political ideas 13 years ago, but replaced it with a heavy shadow in Chiang Kai-shek’s heart that the sun cannot see—his hatred for Yang Hucheng has been transformed into a kind of extreme personal hatred .

Depressed, Yang Hucheng said to his secretary Song Qiyun many times: "I'm sorry for causing you to bring your family and me to suffer such hardships and suffer such great crimes." The old chief who followed.Seeing this scene, the monitoring agents couldn't help sighing with emotion. One day in August 1949, Chiang Kai-shek flew from Guangzhou to Chongqing with a large number of people.Zhang Qun, the southwestern military and political chief of the Kuomintang, and Yang Sen, the Sichuan warlord, forcibly organized paoge, local tyrants, and celebrities. They claimed to have a welcome team of 80,000 people. The great cause of fighting chaos and saving the country.

Chiang Kai-shek delivered an impromptu speech, declaring that he wanted to take advantage of the geographical advantages of manpower and material resources in the Southwest to prepare for the second war of resistance, vowing to deal with the Communist Party to the end. After the passionate gesture, Chiang Kai-shek left the welcome team of 80,000 people and stayed overnight in Linyuan.It was said that it was going to the southwest to fight the second war of resistance, but it was actually a hasty escape before Guangzhou changed hands.He felt unspeakably sad, anxious and depressed, and Chiang Kai-shek called Mao Renfeng who was accompanying him.

"Where is Yang Hucheng?" Chiang Kai-shek asked knowingly, holding a glass of white water. Mao Renfeng felt a "Garden" in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "According to the committee's opinion, the humble post has been properly transferred to Guiyang." "Well... well, how many rebels have been imprisoned by the Sino-US Special Technology Cooperation Institute?" Chiang Kai-shek asked again. "Report to the president," Mao Renfeng stepped forward and replied without pausing, "about 450 people." Chiang Kai-shek nodded slowly, but closed his eyes tightly.

Seeing this, Mao Renfeng asked in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "The Zhazi Cave and the Bai Mansion are overcrowded, and most of these people are diehards. Since the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, they have been relocated here from various places one after another, which cost us a lot of manpower. , Material resources. Especially the second department, it has been overwhelmed. Director Xu Yuanju has asked me for instructions many times, how should I deal with it?" "How to deal with it?" Chiang Kai-shek opened his eyes suddenly, stared at Mao Renfeng suspiciously, and waved his hand, "Kill them all, don't keep a single one."

"Kill them all?" Mao Renfeng suddenly opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Some people are not the Communist Party." "Director Mao," Chiang Kai-shek put down his water glass, full of annoyance, "you have also seen today's failure. This is very important because we killed too few people in the past, so we kept some people who opposed us. This is important to us. Too bad. As for some people who are not the Communist Party, it doesn’t matter. Keeping them can only endanger the party-state. Just imagine, when we were powerful in the past, these people were unwilling to surrender. Today we have encountered such great difficulties and the situation is so unfavorable , will they still change?"

Having said that, Chiang Kai-shek paused for a moment, and said expressionlessly: "Kill them all." "What about Yang Hucheng?" Mao Renfeng asked again, "When will he be sent to Taiwan, Deputy Zhang (Xueliang) will be sent there." Chiang Kai-shek stood up abruptly, angrily saying, "This man should have been killed long ago, what are you leaving him for? Didn't you already have him on your list?" Mao Renfeng had a bitter face, and seemed to be full of thoughts: "Zhang Hanqing was also on the list, and was finally sent to Taiwan. I thought that Yang Hucheng would also be sent to Taiwan, so I didn't do it for a long time."

"Zhang Hanqing's situation is different from his." Chiang Kai-shek stretched out his hand and pointed his index finger forward. "This Yang Hucheng is incurable, and his crimes cannot be punished. If you don't kill him, leaving it to the Communist Party will only add to our chaos." "He also has two children and a secretary and a family of three." "Don't keep a single one." Chiang Kai-shek became more impatient, and simply took a step around the house, "When planing trees, you must dig out the roots, and you must do it cleanly, and you must not leave anything unfavorable."

Mao Renfeng nodded, already understanding. On August 27, Mao Renfeng bid farewell to Chiang Kai-shek, went down the mountain from the forest garden, and came to a mansion named "Shulu" in the central district of the army. He personally summoned the Southwest Station of the Secrecy Bureau to discuss how to kill Yang Hucheng. Director Xu Yuanju and production team leader Zhou Yanghao. The three of them closed the door, lowered their voices and began to discuss secretly. Mao Renfeng sat upright, changed his usual hypocritical greetings, and straight-forwardly arranged: "I came to you two today because I have an important task to discuss. The president instructed us yesterday to punish Yang Hucheng immediately. This person should have been killed a long time ago. Today can only add to the trouble. As for how to sanction and what means to use, this is different from others, and it must be done cleanly. Keeping secrets is the first priority without showing any traces. What do you two think?"

Xu Yuanju was not surprised at all when he heard this, he just asked in puzzlement: "It shouldn't be a big problem to kill Yang Hucheng. The key is how to deal with Yang Hucheng's two children and the secretary's family? If it is not done well , Paper can’t contain fire, they will leak out.” "Director Xu is completely overwhelmed." Mao Renfeng grinned and waved his hand nonchalantly, "Cut the weeds and root out the roots, and the president expressly stated that no one will be left. If they stay, can't we let them take revenge? Our purpose of action is one, secret Dispose of it without leaving any traces. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Then it's easy to handle." Zhou Yanghao helped his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and easily put forward his suggestion: "Just find a secluded place near Guiyang, deal with them, and bury them beside the road. Sleep." "No," Xu Yuanju shook his head and waved his hand at Zhou Yanghao, "Old Zhou, this is not appropriate. We have no one to respond in Guizhou. Gu Zhenglun, chairman of Guizhou Province, has always been dissatisfied with the military command. Suddenly lead people out and kill them, if they are seen, then Gu Zhenglun will make use of the problem, and the matter will be complicated?"
