She is not only known for her ruthlessness and peerless beauty, but also has a unique background. However, when the military commanders broke into her residence, they found an old woman with pinholes and a long appearance.
Although Yoshiko Kawashima's true identity is confusing, her betrayal and aggression against China are always unforgivable.
Do you know Yoshiko Kawashima? The name may remind some people of Japan, but in fact she is an authentic Chinese and a descendant of Manchu Gege.
So, how did she become a female spy in Japan? Let's take a look at her story. Yoshiko Kawashima was born on May 24, 1906, and her original name was Aisin Jueluo Xianyu.
Xianyu, the daughter of Prince Shuosu of the Qing Dynasty, Aixin Jueluo Shanqi, is the fourteenth grid of the palace. She was born in the declining period of the Qing Dynasty, and her father, Shanqi, had the ambition of reviving the Qing Dynasty and sent her to Japan to recognize Naniwa Kawashima as her father-in-law.
Hyunyu left her hometown, changed her name to Yoshiko Kawashima, and began her life in Japan.
Yoshiko Kawashima was once a favored character in the Chinese royal palace, proficient in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting. However, when she came to Japan, her life changed drastically. Kawashima Naniwa planned to train her to be a Japanese female spy, so he sent her to the Japanese military academy.
However, Yoshiko Kawashima was often bullied in military school, which she believes is all because of her Chinese identity. This makes her very angry, and she decides to become a good Japanese female ** to prove her worth to those who have bullied her.
Yoshiko Kawashima's youth was eroded by the cancer of Japanese militarism, and her former hobby of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting has been replaced by the duties of a female spy. As she grows, beauty becomes the object of coveted by her adoptive father, Naniwa Kawashima.
After the death of Kawashima Naniwa's wife, he proposed to Yoshiko Kawashima's brother, an unethical act that was firmly rejected. However, Naniwa Kawashima did not give up, he forcibly violated Yoshiko Kawashima and brutally removed her uterus, turning her into a monster who was neither male nor female.
This experience made Yoshiko Kawashima feel so tormented that she even had suicidal thoughts.
She has not left, but her identity and mood have changed drastically. The former Aixin Jueluo Xianyu has become a thing of the past, and she is now the ruthless Japanese female spy Yoshiko Kawashima.
Cutting off her long hair and wearing it instead, she admonished herself to forget the past. In order to win the attention of the Japanese, she shuttled between many Japanese officers with her beauty and won their support.
Yoshiko Kawashima proved her strength with practical actions and designed to blow up Zhang Zuolin, and since then she has become famous in Japan.
The Japanese attempted to achieve their goal of annexing China by transferring Pu Yi from Tianjin to the northeast, making him a puppet emperor of the puppet state of Manchukuo. Yoshiko Kawashima also cherished the dream of restoring the Qing Dynasty and accepted the task of sending the last empress Wanrong to the northeast.
She disguised Wanrong as a man and infiltrated the Northeast as her entourage. Later, she planned the "128 Incident" to sow discord between China and Japan, which led to a conflict between the two sides.
Japanese artillery fire hit Shanghai, triggering a war between the two sides.
As a result of the war, the revolutionary army suffered heavy losses, and Yoshiko Kawashima's heinous crimes were deeply imprinted on the land of China. In addition, she has built a special squad, which includes many beautiful women who use their beauty to gather intelligence on the Kuomintang and kill people.
As a result, Yoshiko Kawashima became one of the top female spies in Japan, determined to fulfill her father's wish and restore Qing rule. Over time, however, she discovered that the Japanese military did not intend to truly revive the Qing Dynasty.
This made her very dissatisfied, and the Japanese military also sensed the problem and began to secretly reduce her power.
She stubbornly believed that China was inferior to Japan politically and militarily, so she worked for Japan wholeheartedly. However, her arrogance and empty eyes have made many people unhappy.
After becoming a Japanese hero, she began to pursue pleasure. Because of her high-profile behavior and arrogance, many Japanese began to distance themselves from her. Coupled with the fact that the puppet Manchukuo plan did not go well, she lost the attention of the Japanese to her.
This reminded her of the days when she was bullied when she first arrived in Japan, and she frantically blamed the Chinese for all this, and even raged in China, brutally killing Chinese compatriots.
The outbreak of the Pacific War shattered Yoshiko Kawashima's dream of a puppet Manchukuo, and she was unwilling to be abandoned by the Japanese when she returned to Japan. She then revealed to the Japanese military her dealings with Chiang Kai-shek's men, claiming that she could provide more information if she could return to China.
The Japanese military accepted her offer and sent her back to China again.
After returning from China, she opened a teahouse, ostensibly running an ordinary business, but behind it was a Japanese spy intelligence station. The women's ** team she led conducted in-depth reconnaissance within the Kuomintang and provided a lot of intelligence for the Japanese military.
As her power expanded, her arrogance became even more arrogant, not only running rampant in China, but also brutally killing her compatriots to satisfy her own bad taste.
Her fanatical obsession with Japan was even willing to become its lackey, collaborating with the Japanese to kill revolutionary fighters. However, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, self-inflicted, and her retribution is coming.
In August 1945, the year of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan announced its unconditional surrender. The Kuomintang decided to arrest traitors and spies. When the military learned of Yoshiko Kawashima's hiding place, they immediately rushed to where she was.
Dai Li, the head of the Kuomintang's secret service, has always coveted Yoshiko Kawashima's beauty, and this time he specially told his subordinates to arrest her. However, when they pushed the door open, they saw not a flawless female spy, but a dilapidated old woman covered in pinholes.
They began to talk about it, and some even wanted to leave.
Someone saw through her disguise, Skynet was magnificent, negligent but not leaky, and she ended up in prison. The Kuomintang tried to extract the secret of Japan's ** from her mouth, but she resolutely kept her mouth shut.
She spent three years in prison and was tortured. Later, the Kuomintang ** ordered all spies with Japanese nationality to be sent back to Japan, and she immediately wrote to her adoptive father, Naniwa Kawashima, seeking evidence to prove her Japanese nationality.
Because of Kawashima Naniwa's contempt for her, she left a mustard in her heart. And the fact that she was once a Manchu Gege is well known. With the defeat of Japan, she lost her usefulness.
Finally, in March 1948, Yoshiko Kawashima was executed for espionage and traitor. Although Yoshiko Kawashima's life is full of suffering, this does not excuse her to seek glory.
It is an immutable truth that good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil.
Some speculate that she did not suffer the fate of execution, but was transferred to a place and lived the life of an ordinary peasant. So, what do you think about her life and death?
