Kang Sheng is a special figure in the Communist Party of China, he has done a lot of bad things, ** once gave him an assertion: "Kang Sheng is a ghost, not a human." * I saw Kang Sheng's personality very early, he had criticized and resisted Kang Sheng's mistakes three times, and today Brother Di will talk about these criticisms.
Kang Sheng. The first criticism was during the Yan'an period, in August 1938, Kang Sheng was appointed as the head of the Social Department of the Communist Party of China, and the responsibility of the Social Department was to enter the newspaper and counter-spy work, which is equivalent to the current Ministry of Social Affairs. The reason why Kang Sheng was asked to take on this important responsibility is because he had served as the main leader of ** Special Branch in the 30s and had some experience in intelligence. Yang Shangkun once wrote in his memoirs:
At that time, ** praised him very much, and everyone thought he was good and thought he was very capable.In 1943, Yan'an began a campaign to censor cadres, when the base areas under the leadership of the Party were in the most difficult period, and the Kuomintang secret services were frequently active around the border areas, trying to send spies to penetrate into our Party and sabotage them. In such a complex situation of struggle, it is necessary to examine the cadres. **It was decided that the daily work of the audit was presided over by Kang Sheng.
After Kang Sheng presided over the trial work, in order to establish his authority, he completely ignored the actual situation in Yan'an, and labeled many innocent people as "spies". On 15 July, Kang Sheng made a report entitled "Rescue the Stranders" at a meeting of cadres of organs under the CPC Central Committee, pushing the cadre review movement into a "campaign to rescue the stragglers." Kang Sheng said in the report:
You are insensitive, saying that there will be no spies in Yan'an, and now it has been proven, how much do you want?A platoon?A company?One brigade is enough!
Kang Sheng's report was later printed into a document and sent to various units and base areas, causing serious consequences. In just half a month after the "rescue campaign" was held in Yan'an, more than 1,400 so-called "special suspects" were unearthed, and many cadres were in a state of panic.
Zhang Wentian thought that Kang Sheng's approach was too much, so he said to him: "Where are so many spies among the intellectuals?"”
Kang Sheng said seriously: "Don't doubt it, I'll show you the materials." ”
After reading the materials, Zhang Wentian said: "These things seem to be made up. ”
Kang Sheng insisted: "It's true." After that, he continued to do his own thing.
Fortunately, he discovered that there was a problem with the "rescue movement" in time, and he issued instructions several times, demanding that the interrogators should not engage in extorted confessions, and that "no one should be killed, and most of them should not be arrested". At the end of 1943, the trial work in Yan'an was transferred to the screening stage, and after screening, it was found that more than 90% of the cases were unjust, false and wrongly decided, and the wronged people were rehabilitated.
** And Kangsheng.
At the beginning of 1945, he took the initiative to assume the responsibility of the trial movement, he summoned the wronged people in the Yan'an auditorium, and said to everyone with a heavy heart: "The main responsibility for the current problems of this movement should be borne by me." Then he took off his hat and bowed to everyone and apologized.
Although Kang Sheng, who sat on the rostrum with ***, was not directly criticized, *** saw his personality through this incident, and later *** once said to people: "The person who is so 'left' in our party that he can no longer be 'left' is Kang Sheng." Remember, don't take his word for it. ”
The second criticism was in early 1960, ** met with Song Renqiang, Minister of the Second Ministry of Machinery Industry, who was responsible for the development of the atomic bomb, in Guangzhou, and he asked Song Renqiang when the atomic bomb would be possible, and Song Renqiang replied: "Even if we do our best, the time will have to be postponed to 1964." ”
Song Renqiao. But Kang Sheng, who was on the side, said in order to please ***: "It's late in 1964, it should be in 1962." One day earlier than the atomic bomb was beneficial to the Chinese revolution and the world revolution one day earlier. ”
**Seeing that Kang Sheng didn't understand science at all, he criticized him and said, "Kang Sheng, you go and be a minister!."After Kang Sheng heard this, he didn't dare to say anything anymore.
The third criticism was at the end of August 1965, when Kang Sheng, who was already the secretary of the country, said at a meeting convened by him: "I have long believed that the diplomatic line since the founding of the People's Republic of China has been downright capitulationism, downright opportunism, and downright revisionism. ”
The people present were shocked when they heard this, because the diplomatic line since the founding of the People's Republic of China has been formulated and implemented by the People's Republic of China in person, and the diplomatic work since the founding of the People's Republic of China has been affirmed in many speeches. After the meeting was adjourned, Lei Yingfu, deputy director of the Operations Department of the General Staff Department, asked Kang Sheng: "Elder Kang, the line of diplomatic work since the founding of the People's Republic of China was decided by the premier after the prime minister consulted the chairman”
Lei Yingfu. Kang Sheng insisted: "You are still young, and you still don't know what a line is, and what a line struggle is. The political issues are very complicated!”
Lei Yingfu thought that Kang Sheng, as the secretary of ***, should be responsible for speaking, so he reported the matter to *** and reported it to ***, ** was very angry after hearing it, and decided to talk to Kang Sheng.
After Kang Sheng came, in the face of ***'s questioning, he denied it and said: "Without such a thing, how could I go against the chairman and the prime minister?"Someone must have ulterior motives and framed him!”
**Naturally, there is a way to deal with Kang Sheng, he said: "This is a report by Comrade Lei Yingfu, he not only reported the content of your speech, but also provided a list of people who attended the meeting, do you want to confront them?"”
At this time, Kang Sheng realized that he could no longer quibble, he suddenly softened, and actually sat down on the sofa, crying and said: "Chairman, I remembered, I did say this, I was wrong, I shouldn't talk nonsense." As you know, I'm a foul-mouthed person who often talks about it, and I will definitely correct my mistakes in the future!”
Kang Sheng. Seeing that Kang Sheng had admitted his mistake, he only criticized him harshly and did not punish him.
Although he criticized and warned Kang Sheng many times, he did not learn from it, and later he did many bad things that harmed the party and the people.
