The gains and losses in life have long been set in the arrangement of fate. When you face it head-on, you can't tell whether it's happy or bad. Sometimes, lust and greed are like the abyss of **, which makes you fall into a catastrophe in one step.
The gift of life will not appear out of thin air, but the tempting ** will come at any time. If you had the opportunity to face countless riches, would you be tempted? Let's explore the mists of history together and listen to the stories of those villagers.
The story takes place in 1949, when the revolutionary fire of our party was burning, and the decline of the people was like the collapse of a castle in the air. The national ** once had more than 5 million troops and were well-equipped, while our party only had 1.27 million troops and rudimentary ** equipment.
Such a contrast makes people sigh at the gains and losses in life and the arrangement of fate.
When the defeat was already assured, the Kuomintang wanted to win over bandits to fight against the Communist Party, which was undoubtedly an abandonment of their own beliefs. On May 24, 1949, a plane loaded with silver dollars flew at a high altitude near Fenghuang County, Hunan, which was prepared by the people to buy off the bandits from Hunan, Hubei, Sichuan, and Guizhou, but they had already fallen into a desperate situation, hoping to change the situation with the help of external forces.
Ironically, a political party that claims to be the master of the country wants to unite with a chaotic party like bandits to fight against the people who have paid for New China.
In the tide of the times, some struggles seem powerless. This plane, which was full of the hopes of the people, did not complete its mission, and was swallowed up by the endless desires of the people.
At that time, the plane was piloted by two American pilots and escorted by three soldiers, and there were fifty boxes with a total of 100,000 silver dollars, and this was the beginning of the tragedy.
In the face of this great wealth, it is difficult to remain calm. Driven by desire, the escort loses his mind and is bent on taking possession of this wealth. The three soldiers were red-eyed and drew their guns to shoot at each other.
In the flash of light, the sparks from the bullets ignited the plane. The instantaneous ** caused the plane to crash in Weixin Township, Fenghuang County, Hunan Province. The nearby villagers were attracted by this unknown object that fell from the sky, and the fifty boxes of silver dollars at this time were more like a curse, quietly devouring them.
Looking at the glowing silver dollars in the wooden crates outside the ruins of the plane, the villagers fell into a frenzy. In that turbulent and poor era, this silver dollar was more like a light to the future, the end of this miserable life.
For a while, everyone's minds were on this silver dollar, and nothing else could be seen in their eyes, and even some strangers were famous. But how many people care about the consequences behind this?
When this incident caused a sensation, Wu Youfeng, the head of the neighboring township, and Ou Wenwen, the local head of Weixin Township, were also attracted by this wealth. Each of them arrived at the crash site with a large number of men, intending to monopolize the wealth.
In the end, because Ou Wenwen's strength was stronger, Wu Youfeng could only reluctantly give up this crazy place and leave the crash site. However, how could Wu Youfeng be willing to let others take advantage of this wealth, he immediately asked after returning to Fenghuang County"Anti-Suppression Committee"The matter was reported, trying to crack down on the European article.
The Phoenix County City Defense Brigade immediately mobilized all available men and horses to rush to the plane crash site, surrounded Ou Wenwen, and forcibly confiscated all the silver dollars. However, they were not satisfied, and stayed here and dug hard for five or six days, digging up nearly 10,000 silver dollars in total.
According to later accounts, as many as 80,000 silver dollars were missing, and the level of madness was shocking. The scene was extremely chaotic and unimaginable.
In the eyes of the people, the loss of up to 100,000 silver dollars was unacceptable, so the chairman ordered Cheng Qian, chairman of Hunan Province, to recover it at all costs. Cheng Qian immediately ordered Chen Quzhen, deputy commander of the appeasement of the Hunan and Hubei border regions and director of the Yuanling Administration, to track down the whereabouts of the silver dollar.
However, despite Yu Zikun's best efforts, he only recovered 10,000 silver dollars, which obviously could not meet the requirements. He turned his attention to the surrounding villagers, and on May 26, he led his troops to surround the village, forcing them to pay 80 silver dollars by intimidation and threats or face force in retaliation.
Eventually, the villagers were forced to hand over the silver dollars, but Yu Zikun was not satisfied, he forcibly broke into the villagers' homes and robbed them of their valuables. Some villagers who were not involved in the matter were also forced to sell their property to pay for the 80 silver dollars.
When it is impossible to hand it over, the only option is to leave the country and be displaced. Overnight, homes were shattered and people were miserable. Yu Zikun finally forcibly collected 70,000 silver dollars, but he did not hand over these silver dollars to **, but found various reasons to deceive him.
At that time, ** was already on the verge of defeat and could not afford to recover the silver dollar, and gradually, people stopped paying attention to this money. When ** retreated to Taiwan, the money fell into the hands of bandits and local ** and was divided by them.
The villagers who lost their minds did not expect that what they thought was wealth would eventually become their nightmare. The initial euphoria turned into regret later. It's all the result of greed.
Desire is an abyss, and if you can't control it, you will be swallowed up in it and fall into a situation from which you will never recover. Even if you have thousands of acres of fertile land and 10,000 houses, you can only sleep in a five-foot land at night, so why be too obsessed?
There are beautiful flowers and moons in this world, why should they be compared to the fireworks and broken silver of the mortal world?
