The soldiers found the cigarette butts and smashed the Chiang Kai-shek conspiracy
At three o'clock in the afternoon of October 1, 1949, when *** stood on the tower of Tiananmen Square, a voice said, "The People's Republic of China **People** was established today!" ”
Resounded in the sky, and the square immediately erupted in deafening applause.
Some ill-intentioned conspirators can only suffer the pain of the collapse of the conspiracy in a dark corner. On the eve of the founding of New China, the Kuomintang reactionaries paid a huge amount of money to plan one secret operation after another"Effort"。
However, what they didn't expect was that the revelation of the matter came from a small cigarette butt. An extraordinary cigarette butt revealed the truth that in early 1949, with the victory of the three major battles, the remnants of the Kuomintang troops were defeated and retreated, and the Communist Party of China led the people of the whole country to finally achieve the final victory.
At the important historical moment of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was proposed and decided to hold a solemn and grand founding ceremony in Tiananmen Square. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the ceremony, ** elite forces were drawn from the local troops, and the public security ** column was formed together with the picket brigade.
Among them, Liu Lianhu is a member of this team. As the date of the founding ceremony approached, Liu Lianhu waited for it, repeatedly checking the same road every day, while keeping a close eye on passing vehicles and pedestrians.
The peculiarity of this route is that it was a place where important leaders such as ** passed on the day of the founding ceremony, so any negligence could have serious consequences.
Once, after checking all the sections of the road, Liu Lianhu did not find anything abnormal, and was about to return when he noticed a cigarette butt on the ground. He gently picked up the cigarette butt and looked closely, noticing that something was wrong.
Why did a cigarette butt catch Liu's attention? Because what he found was not an ordinary cigarette, but a cigarette called the "Pegasus" brand. This kind of cigarette is not widely available in the northern market and is more suitable for the taste of southerners, so it is common in many cities in the south.
In addition, the ** of "Pegasus" brand cigarettes is not cheap for ordinary people, they simply cannot afford it.
As an experienced scout, the moment Liu Lianhu saw the cigarette butt, his first reaction was that the person who smoked should be from the south, and his appearance near Tianmen Square meant that he had a certain identity.
He immediately began to conduct a detailed investigation and search around the location where the cigarette butts were found, hoping to find other possible clues. At this time, there were no more people in Tiananmen Square and nearby roads, and he soon found a string of shoe prints not far from the cigarette butt.
For ordinary people, it is normal to find shoe prints, but for Liu Lianhu, who has received professional training, this ordinary phenomenon may hide important information.
Liu's keen insight not only allowed him to spot the shoe prints on the ground, but also allowed him to be sure that they were the shoe prints of a pair of leather shoes. In Beijing, which was not long after the liberation, many ordinary people could not even provide food and clothing, let alone wear leather shoes.
Therefore, Liu Lianhu linked the "Pegasus brand" cigarette butts and leather shoes on the ground, and confirmed his conjecture even more: people who can meet these two conditions at the same time must have extraordinary identity and status.
In addition, Liu Lianhu felt that there were some unknown secrets hidden behind this person. The security around Tiananmen Square is very strict, why would a southerner with a certain status and status hang out near Tiananmen Square during this time period and litter cigarette butts everywhere?
As he thought about it deeply, Liu Lianhu felt more and more suspicious about this matter, so he quickly reported the situation to the relevant departments. After layers of reporting, the matter was finally sent to the Minister of Public Security.
The Ministry of Public Security and relevant departments attach great importance to Liu Huanhu's discovery and demand that the truth be ascertained as soon as possible. In the course of the investigation, if any suspicious elements are found, they must be strictly pursued, and no one must be let go to ensure that they are caught in the net.
In view of the imminent ceremony, the investigation has been carried out in secret and in order to prevent the situation from escalating and avoiding alarm. After receiving instructions from his superiors, Liu Lianhu led several people to conduct a secret investigation nearby, but no suspicious circumstances were found in the past few days, except for cigarette butts and leather shoe prints found at the beginning, there were no other clues.
Despite the slow pace of the investigation, Mr. Liu persisted, and at one point wondered if he was too nervous and made an error in judgment.
Liu Lianhu never let his guard down, and always scanned the surroundings with a keen eye when he walked, looking for leather shoes and pumps"Pegasus"Cigarette smokers. He spent most of his time squatting where cigarette butts and shoe prints were found.
He is convinced that the person in question will definitely reappear. After five days of waiting, he finally saw a mysterious man wearing a top hat, an overcoat, and leather shoes.
The sneaky man covered half of his face with a scarf, apparently hiding his identity. He looked around, made sure no one was looking, slowly crouched down, took out a pen and paper, and began to write and draw.
Liu Lianhu was nervous in his heart, he knew that the goal he had been looking for for so long had finally appeared. In order not to attract the attention of the suspect, Liu Lianhu wore civilian clothes and walked to the man's side like an ordinary tourist.
The man was immersed in his own world, engrossed in his own business, not noticing Liu Lianhu, who was slowly approaching. When Liu Huanhu approached, he saw the item in his hand and immediately stepped forward to stop him.
At this time, the man suddenly realized that the situation was not good, and hurriedly took out a dagger from his clothes and stabbed at Liu Lianhu. However, Liu Lianhu was prepared and easily dodged the man's attack.
After several rounds of fierce fighting, Liu Lianhu successfully subdued the man, and then the comrades who arrived escorted the man back to the Ministry of Public Security.
In a fierce fight, the paper in the man's hand accidentally slipped off, and it was the road map of the *** convoy of the founding ceremony that was drawn on it. If this picture is leaked, the consequences are unimaginable.
However, at the same time that the city of Beijing has returned to its former prosperity, there are many people who are eyeing the city of Beijing, and they are the Kuomintang spies who have been defeated by our party.
Because of the special way of liberating the city of Beijing, in order to avoid the destruction of this historical ancient city, our party reached an agreement with General Fu Zuoyi to liberate Beiping by non-force, and later renamed Beijing.
For this reason, a large number of Kuomintang agents lurked in the city of Beijing, clinging to the delusional desire to seize power. After the People's Liberation Army took over Beiping, it cracked down on Kuomintang spies and other lawbreakers in the city.
However, because some people are hiding too deeply, they still pose a certain threat to Beijing's public security, and for a period of time, the city is full of crises. **After the deployment, the Party and the People's Liberation Army began to rectify public order in the city in a targeted manner, and carried out several large-scale clean-up operations, which not only captured a large number of hostile elements, but also made the public security and social situation in Beijing continue to develop in a good direction.
Therefore, the office of the important leaders of the first class was moved from Xibaipo to Xiangshan, Beijing, and finally settled in Zhongnanhai. And during this period, the most important moment is about to usher in - the founding ceremony.
At this special moment, Liu Lianhu noticed a man who was behaving suspiciously, which filled his heart with an ominous premonition. In order to find out who was behind the incident and eliminate the hidden danger in time, the Ministry of Public Security immediately launched an interrogation of the man.
At first, the man insisted that he was just an ordinary tourist, that he had come to Beijing to attend the founding ceremony, that he had drawn a map to prevent getting lost, and that he had carried a knife for self-defense.
Faced with uncompromising Ministry of Public Security staff, the man finally confessed after repeated interrogations and torture. It turned out that his name was Wang Yicai, and he was a member of the action group of the Second Branch of the Beiping District of the Kuomintang Party General Bureau, and accepted Mao Renfeng's orders to secretly investigate the streets around Tiananmen Square many times, and drew the terrain and road map.
Their real purpose, however, is to assassinate our great leader*** on the basis of these maps, and this organized conspiracy is truly shocking.
Wang Yicai's spy gang was numerous, and their secret investigation and infiltration operations led to the mastery of the route of the *** convoy of the founding ceremony. According to the map and route provided by Wang Yicai, other spies planted bombs along the way, which were planned to be carried out on the day of the founding ceremony**.
Upon learning of this, many staff members broke out in a cold sweat and immediately reported it to their superiors. At that time, after learning the news, the Minister of Public Security decided to use this man to lure out other spies, capture them all in one fell swoop, and completely eliminate the threat.
With the help of the connector address and code provided by Wang Yicai, the Ministry of Public Security immediately launched secret surveillance and fully deployed follow-up arrest operations. After several days of careful preparation, when the opportunity was ripe, the Ministry of Public Security launched a net collection operation to completely eliminate the hostile elements of the Kuomintang.
Subsequently, the public security department conducted a carpet survey and search of the whole city, and arrested more than 3,000 spies. Chiang Kai-shek was very angry and dissatisfied when he heard the news of the failure of the operation at the Chen Jitang Mansion in Dongshan Meihua Village, Guangzhou, and scolded these people for being waste.
Although the conspiracy of the "cigarette butt" case has been exposed, the sinister intentions of Chiang Kai-shek and the remnants of the Kuomintang behind it are still clearly visible. With the efforts of the heroes behind the scenes, the Ministry of Public Security has succeeded in arresting a large number of spies, bandits, and suspicious elements, but at this moment when the situation has not yet been completely stabilized and the founding ceremony has not been completely completed, everyone has maintained a high degree of vigilance and has not relaxed at all.
Every member of the ** Public Security Column has been sticking to his post day and night, patrolling and investigating the streets and alleys of Beijing Municipality every day, and has also carried out "dragnet" searches many times to eliminate all kinds of potential threats.
At the same time, the safety and security of Tiananmen Square, the venue of the founding ceremony, is the top priority of all work. Prior to the ceremony, the staff carried out numerous meticulous inspections to ensure that all possible safety issues were properly addressed.
In the early morning of October 1, Lu Zhan, the captain of the first team of the Beijing Picket Brigade, was still conducting strict inspections of the places he passed through and the things that might be touched. Although the preparations were complete, it was already dawn and there were only a few hours left to leave the ceremony.
All police officers and staff did not know the exact time of the ceremony. It wasn't until 10 a.m. on October 1 that Xinhua Radio made an announcement. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the invited guests entered on time and stood on the viewing platform, waiting for the arrival of this sacred and solemn moment.
At this time, a large crowd had gathered in Tiananmen Square, waving red flags and looking forward to the start of the ceremony.
On October 1, 1949, the founding ceremony officially began under the witness of thousands of Beijing citizens and compatriots from all over the country, which was a moment that went down in history and marked a new chapter in the history of the Chinese nation.
The peace and quiet of this day is inseparable from the hard work and dedication of the public security officers and staff day and night, who have guarded our country and people with firm faith and unyielding spirit.
Finally, the little cigarette butt reveals a case of spies who created and destroyed the founding ceremony, and although there is no gunsmoke, it is full of thrilling history.
Under the precise deployment of the People's Republic of China, the security work of the founding ceremony was strictly in place, and the hostile elements hidden in Beijing were successfully captured. This successful security operation dealt a powerful blow to the well-planned and well-organized earth-shattering conspiracies, which were completely shattered.
Behind the scenes, there are many seniors like Liu Xuanhu who pay silently, and they work tirelessly and go all out. As the saying goes: our years are quiet because someone is carrying the weight for us.
