A restaurant called "Hard Meal" has been operating in Chengdu for more than 20 years. During the Chinese New Year, other shops are closed, but it is still open to customers, which is very different. In 1950, several PLA soldiers suddenly patronized the small restaurant.
It was no different from the patronage of other PLA soldiers before, but this time it caused tears and trembling in the boss's wife. After the reception, the proprietress introduced several PLA soldiers into the private room, and all of this has a special background.
The restaurant was originally run by a husband and wife, Che Yaoxian and Huang Tixian, however, a few years ago, Cha Yaoxian suddenly disappeared from people's view. Although everyone thought that the husband and wife had a conflict that led to the separation, Huang Tixian could not explain the truth clearly.
Acquaintances in the store comforted her and told her not to grieve over a failed marriage. Although Huang Tixian was comforted, he couldn't explain the truth, so he had to silently accept the kindness of the diners and continue to run the restaurant. However, in fact, Che Yaoxian is not a simple restaurant owner, but an excellent member of our party's underground organization.
The restaurant was open in 1930 and remained in business until 1950. This mode of operation is also the result of the discussion between Che Yaoxian and Huang Tixian. After getting married, Cha Yaoxian worked tirelessly for the sake of his family and became a member of the underground party.
Due to the security of his identity and connections, he did not arouse anyone's suspicion in the local area, and informed his wife of his identity to ensure the safety of information transmission. Huang Tixian and his wife run a restaurant together, but it is actually an intelligence transmission point, which was approved by Huang Tixian.
During normal business, the small restaurant looks like a regular restaurant, but as soon as someone says a code, they are directed to a private room to pass on information. As a result, the restaurant never aroused suspicion, and even in 1950, the first year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was not revealed to be an intelligence transmission station.
However, a few years ago, Cha Yaoxian suddenly disappeared, which made Huang Tixian very worried. Before disappearing, Cha Yao first told Huang Tixian that he was going on a mission, and then disappeared. It wasn't until 1950 that the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army came to the door that the truth about Che Yaoxian's disappearance was exposed in front of Huang Tixian.
According to the recollections of the PLA soldiers and Huang Tixian, it can be learned that in those years, due to the existence of the Kuomintang reactionaries, the Communist Party experienced many hardships and hardships, especially underground parties like them in the enemy camp.
It was already quite laborious to deal with the daily comings and goings of Kuomintang soldiers and the secret spies, but what was even more tricky was that they could not even prevent the betrayal of their own people. There have been many traitors before, who dealt a huge blow to the Communist Party and almost destroyed the underground party organization.
Therefore, Che Yaoxian and Huang Tixian passed information to the organization in such a situation where enemies were around, spies were heavy, and even comrades betrayed. This restaurant has been in business for 20 years and has passed on countless intelligence, and the contributions of Che Yaoxian and Huang Tixian are indelible.
However, in 1940, Che Yaoxian suddenly disappeared, and before leaving, he only left a sentence to Huang Tixian saying that he was going to carry out a mission, and the restaurant was still operating as usual, and then there was no trace of him.
According to the intelligence of the People's Liberation Army, Che Yaoxian was targeted by the Kuomintang, and before that, the Kuomintang had already monitored the restaurant, but Che Yaoxian did not expose any flaws, so the spies were helpless.
In the end, the Kuomintang reactionaries ignored the lack of evidence and secretly arrested him, but even after all the torture he had experienced by the Kuomintang, he did not divulge any information about the organization.
For six years, no matter how tortured he was, the warrior did not say a single word of what the enemy wanted to hear, and even the enemy expressed their admiration for Cha Yaoxian's tenacity and perseverance. Although they are highly respected, if intelligence is not available, it means that these people are worthless.
In their view, worthless people are doomed to not survive, especially since allowing them to leave will provoke condemnation of the mistreatment of prisoners and thus exert pressure.
In addition, during the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, once the society learned that they had arrested the Communists, they would be spurned by everyone and become sinners who tried to undermine the revolutionary front, so they were doomed to not be spared.
The same fate awaited many Communists, who were also secretly arrested by the Kuomintang and secretly executed to ensure that the news would not be leaked. The use of ciphers can be used as an example.
In 1950, three PLA soldiers stepped into the 20-year-old restaurant and uttered the code "one dish, one soup".
Ordinary people will order when they hear the boss introduce the name of the dish, and the "one dish and one soup" mentioned by the People's Liberation Army does not conflict with the ordering method in restaurants, but it is different from ordinary people, so this ordering method was chosen as a code.
Once someone orders "one dish and one soup", Che Yaoxian or Huang Tixian will guide them to a soundproofed private room, confirm their identity and then deliver the message. Over the years, even in the event of heavy rain and snow, and even when Mr. Huang Ti was sick, as long as he could get out of bed, he never closed down.
However, in the year after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Huang Tixian never heard the sound of the code again, so when she heard the code again, she was so excited that she couldn't help herself and burst into tears.
However, the news brought by the PLA soldiers was that her husband had died four years earlier, which devastated Huang Tixian, and for many years, she had been convinced that her husband was still alive, which is why she was able to persevere. Now that her husband has passed away and her children have grown up, she no longer has any worries.
Four years later, Huang Tixian also followed in Che Yaoxian's footsteps. Epilogue. The husband and wife reunited in 1954, this time after a gap of 14 years, and both must have been extremely happy.
There are so many underground party members like Che Yaoxian that they often die in obscurity, and even those around them don't know when they died, and some even have mysterious identities for the rest of their lives, let alone use fake names.
As a result, almost no one will recognize them after the sacrifice, except for those who are really familiar with them. It is thanks to these unsung heroes that we can live happily in today's peaceful society, pay tribute to these unsung heroes!
