In 1948, the wife of a senior general was insulted by 6 people, what happened to the perpetrator?
The reason of heaven is clear, the cycle of cause and effect, and the decline of the Kuomintang during the ** period was caused by a shocking ** case. After Chen Yu and her husband Lou Jiangliang moved back to their hometown in Zhejiang, Chen Yu's mood and body gradually recovered, and Lou Jiangliang's tuberculosis gradually improved.
After this nightmarish event, the couple's relationship is deeper than before. In the early morning or evening, Chen Yu snuggled in her husband's arms, and there would still be a throbbing in her heart and the feeling of the rest of her life.
Chen Yu was born in a turbulent ** period, and unlike ordinary women, her father was a major general and division commander of the Kuomintang. Chen Yu received higher education from a young age, with excellent grades, versatile talents, and a happy life.
However, the trick of fate happened to her a shocking thing.
A haggard-looking woman walked into the office building of the Wuhan Hankou Women's Association, and a few days later, newspapers on the streets of Wuhan were snapped up. The headline that the people are talking about is: "A woman was insulted by 6 people in the hospital, and she turned out to be the wife of the Kuomintang."
This news shocked the people on the streets of Wuhan at that time. This Kuomintang ** wife is Chen Yu, and her husband is Lou Jiangliang, the colonel of the Ninth Division of the Kuomintang.
During her husband's hospitalization, she was unexpectedly defeated by six party leaders led by Cui Bowen.
Chen Yu suffered incredible humiliation, but she did not back down. She bravely revealed the matter to her husband, and Lou Jiangliang did not dislike her, but encouraged her to report the case and seek justice.
Chen Yu first found the director of the hospital, but the reply he got was delay and delay. It turns out that these six people all have deep backgrounds. The dean even destroyed the evidence privately in an attempt to create an undocumented statement.
Chen Yu was shocked and disappointed by this, but with the encouragement and support of her husband, she regained her confidence and went directly to the higher authorities and went to the military court.
The head of the Wuhan Women's Association reported Chen Yu's case to Song Meiling and Li Zongren's wife, Guo Dejie. Chiang Kai-shek was outraged by this and sent a telegram directly to Bai Chongxi, asking him to arrest Cui Bowen and six others.
However, the six were able to get away with being released on medical parole through their connections. This news caused anger and an uproar among the citizens of Wuhan. The situation was out of control, and Chiang Kai-shek once again sent instructions to investigate and severely punish the behavior of Cui Bowen and others, so as to maintain the dignity of the law.
Under this pressure, Bai Chongxi finally stopped shielding them and ordered the military court to submit a report within three days.
In the face of the difficult situation inside and outside the Kuomintang, why did Chiang Kai-shek pay special attention to this ** case? At this time, the battles of Liaoshen, Pingjin, and Huaihai had ended, and the Kuomintang had lost half of the country.
At the same time, there was corruption at the top of the Kuomintang and low morale in the army. If this case cannot be tried fairly, it will undoubtedly deal an even greater blow to the Kuomintang. Fortunately, with Chiang Kai-shek's personal intervention, this appalling case finally received a fair verdict.
Chen Yu was also able to let go of her heavy burden and return to her hometown in Zhejiang with her husband to enjoy her old age.
The Chen Yu case revealed the corruption and depravity of the Kuomintang rule. Ethnic factions are rife with the public security and law departments, and the competition for power and money between the parties has reached a frenzied level.
Judging from the party, government, and military, the overall operation of the Kuomintang ** organs appears to be very corrupt. Before 1939, the KMT had a small number of members, and the local party offices did not actually have any power, but were merely a decoration used to decorate the façade.
Moreover, they cannot interfere in any affairs of the local **.
After 1939, although the number of party members increased, their origins and qualities were worrying, which laid the groundwork for later corruption within the KMT.
As a Kuomintang representative openly stated in 1946: "In recent years, the development of party members has been from the bottom to the top, because the higher departments have stipulated that a fixed number of people must be collected on time, and they often make false claims and overcharges, and indiscriminately fill up the numbers, with the result that corrupt elements can be mixed in, which not only makes no contribution to our party, but makes outstanding elements in society feel ashamed of joining their party."
In terms of the political system, the Kuomintang relies entirely on the network of connections in employing personnel, and corruption is committed by small groups. Let's take a look at the Kuomintang's elaborate employment system, the Examination Institute, which actually does not play a big role, but only has a superficial appearance.
The appointment and transfer of personnel at all levels are completely determined by it, which leads to chaos within the Kuomintang, and the employment of people at all levels depends entirely on relationships, backdoors, and wooing, and whoever gives more money can become an official, and the size of the official position is directly proportional to the amount of money.
He Lian, who served as the director of administration and administration in 1936, was deeply touched by this, saying: "I am just an ornament, and all personnel transfers are carried by myself with money pockets.
These words are full of irony, but also reveal helplessness and vicissitudes.
In such an employment environment, once the head resigns and the new official takes office, the position changes of the subordinates will become extremely drastic. "Don't ask about ability, only about relationships, not about contributions, only about factions", the Kuomintang is inherited in the form of power and money transactions.
Let's ask, such a political ecology, such a working environment within the party, full of corruption and ugliness, is it strange that there is no asylum case like Chen Yu? Looking at the management of the army, the reason why Chen Yu's case dragged on for half a year before it was tried is inseparable from the collusion within the army.
Although Chiang Kai-shek and Bai Chongxi personally intervened at that time, they were also pressed without trial, and it was not until the high-level death order was issued that the truth about Chen Yu was revealed.
The corruption in the Kuomintang army was mainly concentrated in two aspects: first, the army's business activities, and second, smuggling within the army. Historically, the phenomenon of knots has always existed, which has made the Kuomintang high-level and wanton and a hard-hit area for corruption.
The original intention of the Kuomintang to establish military cooperatives was to improve the living conditions of soldiers, but the actual situation was that soldiers had no interest in production, but instead used the power in their hands to do business and pursue personal interests.
Chiang Kai-shek was deeply saddened by this, but he was also powerless to rectify this phenomenon. He knew that corruption in the Kuomintang had gone deep into the bone marrow, and the phenomenon of corruption among senior generals was serious.
Chiang's disappointment with the Kuomintang can be glimpsed in his diary: "The cadres of the party, government, and army are selfish, incompetent, scattered, corrupt, and hopeless. "The magnitude of its corruption can be seen.
In her time, Ms. Chen was fortunate enough to receive a fair verdict thanks to the Kuomintang's highly corrupt political system. In that era, her appeals were fairly judged, and the ** who insulted her was duly punished.
She was able to do this, which is inseparable from the fact that she is a new woman, accepting new ideas and being well educated. Although her case dragged on for half a year, she still did not give up.
In the ** period, the consciousness of new women awakened, and they began to pay attention to themselves and pursue self-worth. They have new concepts and ideas in marriage, life, dress, etc.
* It is a special era in China's modern history, which is neither completely new nor completely old, but a period of ideological transition, where the old and the new coexist, and the old and new ideas collide, influence each other, and improve the critical period.
During the period when the Kuomintang was in power, women were suppressed, their ideas were outdated, and they tried to retain the ideological pattern of the Qing Dynasty. However, human beings are thinking beings and cannot be completely blocked.
With the introduction of Western feminism, a women's liberation movement began in Chinese society. Modern women pursue self-independence, equality and freedom, advocate equal rights and responsibilities, and begin to realize that the cornerstone of marriage is love.
In the case of Chen Yu, for example, if she and her husband had not accepted the new ideas and concepts, and their marriage was based on free love, then in that feudal society, a woman might suffer great humiliation, even give up on herself, or even take extreme measures to end her life.
Chen Yu's husband, Lou Jiangliang, is a high-ranking Kuomintang leader with a high degree of education and new ideas. Although his wife suffered great humiliation, he did not dislike Chen Yu because of this, but cared for and loved her more.
At that time, the newspaper "Ta Kung Pao" also opened a column of "Women and Family", with the development of the independent women's movement, the self-awareness and status of women in the ** period have been improved to a certain extent, and the attention of the whole society to women is gradually increasing.
It can be said that women's self-awakening is a long and tortuous process, which includes both the awakening of self-consciousness and the germination of emancipatory consciousness.
* Women of this period absorbed the innovative ideas of the West and were keen to participate in an open social life, which was a significant sign of self-awareness, and they closely linked the transformation of personal destiny and the improvement of social status with the reform of social order.
Only in this way can women truly achieve spiritual emancipation in the course of their lives, break the shackles of the spirit, and achieve all-round free growth.
