Cuimingzhuang, located on Nanheyan Street on the west side of Wangfujing Street in Beijing, was a secret "battlefield" during the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, China once again fell into the shadow of civil war, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party began difficult negotiations to prevent the people from suffering more. Under the coordination of General Marshall, former chief of staff of the US Army, Peiping established the "Military Coordination and Enforcement Department" (referred to as the Military Adjustment Department) in order to stop the civil war. In order to protect the negotiation delegation, the "Red King" Li Kenong was dispatched to serve as the secretary general of our side, stationed in Cuimingzhuang.
However, the Kuomintang military command spies have long been eyeing this place, and almost all the staff members of Cuimingzhuang have the background of military command spies, they frequently wipe the desktop, look through documents, and even check the waste paper basket in the toilet, and bag the waste paper to mark it for the spies to study. Li Kenong was aware of these tricks and deliberately fabricated "confidential documents" to confuse the spies, and at the same time warned the delegation to keep the bottom line and not be subject to **. Cuimingzhuang is calm and peaceful on the surface, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging, and the tension is everywhere. On March 17, 1946, a major event that shook the whole country and caused an uproar in Cuimingzhuang occurred, that is, Dai Li, the head of the military command, was killed on the plane.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Kuomintang carried out extortion under the pretext of taking over the occupied areas, and Dai Li, the leader of the military command, was even more powerful, frequently going back and forth to Beiping, Tianjin, Nanjing, Shanghai and other big cities, using the traitor "handle" in his hand to extort and rob. On this day, Dai Li took a US military plane from Qingdao to Nanjing, but was unable to land due to the torrential rain in Nanjing, so he was rerouted to Shanghai, but encountered the same situation of not being able to land, so he had to fly to Xuzhou instead. Unfortunately, due to extremely poor visibility and fuel shortages, the plane collided when flying through Daishan in the western suburbs of Nanjing, resulting in damage to the plane and death.
The military commanders under Dai Li's command had a strict hierarchy and a "patriarchal system" from top to bottom, so that once the head of a senior spy died, the subordinate spies had to grieve as if they had lost their parents. As the supreme leader of the military command, Dai Li is naturally the top of all spies"Father"Therefore, after Dai Li's death, military commanders and spies throughout the country held mourning ceremonies. As for the military commanders in Cuimingzhuang, they are in an embarrassing situation, as spies, they need to mourn Dai Li's death and cry in front of Dai Li's portrait, but they must keep their identities and not expose the identity of the military commander's spies, so these people want to cry without tears, and they can't show their sorrow, and the situation is quite funny.
Now that Dai Lian has died, Li Kenong is naturally ecstatic, and our representatives are also cheering, which is in stark contrast to the embarrassed expressions of the spies. Li Kenong also deliberately stimulated these secret agents and happily celebrated Dai Li's death in front of them. Li Kenong deliberately said loudly to Chen Shuliang, deputy director of the secretariat: "You go buy wine immediately!."We're going to celebrate tonight and get drunk!Chen Shuliang immediately went out and bought back a few bottles of fine bamboo leaf green, which was full of wine, which made the military commander's spies salivate.
Usually, in order to ensure food safety, we don't eat Cuimingzhuang's meals, but on this day, Li Kenong deliberately came to the kitchen and happily ordered the chef to prepare a sumptuous meal to celebrate the return of Dai Li, the big devil, to the West!In order to guard against the conspiracy of the enemy's spies, the military commander decided to send staff to assist in monitoring and put an end to the crooked thoughts of the spies.
After the banquet began, Li Kenong spoke: "Today is a day worth celebrating, in order to thank the 'staff' of Cuimingzhuang for their 'considerate' service these days, we invite them to join the banquet to celebrate Dai Li's death!In order to protect their identities, the spies had to participate in the competition, and forced them to smile, obey our arrangement, and talk about the negative aspects of Dai Li, and the scene was extremely embarrassing. This night, our personnel released many days of depression and returned home as if they had won a major victory![Reference**: Legendary General Li Kenong", "Dai Li, Godfather of Military Command", "Yanhuang Chunqiu"].
