Chinese history Chiang Kai shek loves to reveal the astonishing fate

Mondo History Updated on 2024-01-29

At the beginning of March 1949, on the eve of the battle of crossing the Yangtze River, an "uninvited guest" came to the home of He Kang, an underground member of the Communist Party of China lurking in Shanghai. This "guest" turned out to be Wu Shi, who was the deputy director of the Kuomintang Fuzhou Pacification Office. Wu Shi directly handed over the confidential information he was carrying to He Kang without saying much. We may know very little about Wu Shi's contribution to the Chinese Revolution.

Despite being in the opposing camp, he resolutely chose to contribute to the revolutionary cause. After Wu Shi left, He Kang opened the information and was shocked to find that the value of this information was not trivial, and the content was the deployment of the Kuomintang army in the Yangtze River defense line. At that time, the two parties were at loggerheads, and this information was of vital importance to our country.

Looking back on the information provided by Wu Shi in those years, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, He Kang recalled: "General Zhang Zhen spoke highly of this information. However, it is worth mentioning that the information provided by Wu Shi was much more than that, which contributed to the final victory of our party. Although it cannot be attributed entirely to him, his contribution cannot be overlooked.

Wu Shi, who secretly joined the Communist Party of China in 1948, was a senior general of the Kuomintang army at that time and Chiang Kai-shek's right-hand man. At that time, he had no worries about food and clothing, enjoyed a fairly high status within the Kuomintang, and even if he later went to Taiwan, his life would not change much.

However, Wu Shi's choice to renounce all positions in the Kuomintang and persist in underground work at the end of the Liberation War raises the question: why did he make such a choice?In July 1949, Wu Shi went to Hong Kong via Guangzhou and was transferred to the post of deputy chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense, and was about to go to Taiwan to continue his lurk. Although our party reminded him to think about himself and welcome him back at any time, he insisted on leaving.

He insisted on continuing to serve our party, but this parting became a permanent secret. Wu Shi can be regarded as a high-level intellectual, at the age of 8, he followed his father to enroll as an auditor and receive education, and later he has always had the opportunity to study. He has an amazing memory and strong self-discipline, whether it is the year-end exam or the graduation exam, he ranks first in the school, so he is known as the "champion of the military academy".

In 1929, Wu Shi went to Japan to study and performed well, and at that time people called him "Twelve Capable People", who could write, martial, poetic, and lyric. The above is a rewriting of the original text, I hope it will be helpful to you. Wu Shi, who returned to China after studying in Japan, taught at the Army University for many years and became a well-known "Japan expert" in the army, and many high-ranking Kuomintang generals were his students.

When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, he resolutely joined the front line of the Anti-Japanese War, because he was a "cultural person" and did not hesitate. At Chiang Kai-shek's military headquarters, he served as the head of the intelligence department, and was highly valued by Chiang Kai-shek, and later became a key figure in the Kuomintang, giving advice on dealing with the Communist Party and its army.

It is worth mentioning that during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Wu Shi had contact with senior leaders of our party, such as Marshal ***, but this did not change his position. In 1940, on the recommendation of his classmate Bai Chongxi, Wu Shi came to Guilin, Guangxi, to serve as the chief of staff of the lieutenant general of the Fourth War Zone.

However, although Bai Chongxi admired his knowledge, he did not give him real power, which meant that Wu Shi could not lead his troops into battle. All in all, Wu Shi's original intention of joining the army was to achieve more victories and make greater contributions to the country and the people. In the face of the behavior of the Kuomintang, Wu Shi gradually recognized their essence.

When the country was ravaged by war, the Kuomintang had begun to corrupt, enrich its own pockets, and withhold the property of the people only for the personal interests of high-ranking officials and nobles. By 1947, Wu Shi was thoroughly inclined to our party and began to provide important information to the East China Bureau on a regular basis.

In 1949, before leaving the mainland, he even handed over 298 boxes of Kuomintang military secret files, and obtained the code name "Secret Envoy No. 1" given by the East China Bureau of our party. However, his actions were extremely dangerous and his identity was eventually revealed, and Chiang Kai-shek's cruelty was well known.

On June 10, 1950, Wu Shi, Zhu Feng and others were escorted to the execution ground in Machang Town, Taipei, where a gunshot rang out, and the close friend of the Chinese Communist Party and an undercover hero fell. Until 1973, ** proposed to *** to posthumously consider Wu Shi as a revolutionary martyr, ** did not hesitate to say: "I agree." ”
