Dai Li, a well-known spy leader in modern Chinese history, is a controversial figure in China's modern history.
Foreign intelligence services commented on Dai Li: "He is the Himmler of the East." ”
Judging from the achievements of Dai Li in intelligence in later generations, the world intelligence community believes that Dai Li is a rare natural intelligence genius.
As the leader of the military command, Dai Li was notoriously ruthless. The various torture methods he invented were unexpected, as can be seen from Dai Li's interrogation of Japanese female spies.
In August 1943, the ** of the military commanders caught a Japanese female spy, who was very tough and refused to say anything. The ** of the military commander used all kinds of torture to make this Japanese female spy speak, but it didn't work.
Just when the interrogators were at a loss, the iron door of the torture room "creaked" open. A man with a stern face came in, he was Dai Li, the ruler of the military command.
He looked at the female spy who would rather die than recruit and sneered, and said to the interrogators: Don't waste your efforts, just strip off her clothes, let her enjoy the "Mandarin Duck Bath", and after enjoying her, she will recruit everything!
The ** in charge of the interrogation immediately understood what Dai Li meant, and they threw down the torture instruments in their hands and walked out of the interrogation room. After a while, he walked in with a large wooden bucket filled with clean water, and when he put the big wooden basin in front of the female spy, the female spy was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she couldn't stop saying: I recruit! I'll recruit them all! Please don't give me this ......
What kind of information does this female spy have that can make Dai Li, the famous military commander, come over for interrogation in person? What is the "mandarin duck bath" in Dai Li's mouth? can make the Japanese female spy who has endured all kinds of torture and does not open her mouth with fright!
Since 1937, when the Japanese invaded China, they occupied the airspace over the entire territory, and China was weak at that time, and there was no decent air force to compete with the Japanese army.
The Japanese army relied on its air supremacy to bomb indiscriminately in China, and they bombed it whenever they wanted. In particular, some strategic places suffered heavy losses from bombing by Japanese planes because they did not have air supremacy.
This situation did not improve until 1941, when the United States requested the United States to send an air force to aid China to resist Japan, and the United States dispatched the "Flying Tigers" to aid China, which was led by Chennault, an officer of the United States Air Force.
The Japanese planes were simply vulnerable to the American planes, and the Japanese air force was like a paper **, and it was beaten by the Flying Tigers and could not find the north.
Knowing that the performance of the aircraft could not be compared with the US military, the despicable and shameless Japanese army began to want to use spies to sabotage the Flying Tigers.
At that time, the whole territory of Guangxi was deeply affected by the Japanese devils. The devil's fighter jets randomly hit the people of Guangxi, especially in the Guilin area, and the Japanese devils poured a large number of bombs into the Guilin area every day, causing countless casualties to the local people.
In 1942, the 14th Volunteer Air Tigers of the U.S. Air Force came to Guilin, Guangxi to support the anti-Japanese resistance, and the Japanese planes no longer dared to be so rampant.
However, because China did not have the capacity to produce military gasoline at that time, the Flying Tigers shipped a large amount of military gasoline from the United States and formed an oil depot at the foot of Guilin's Diecai Mountain.
The depot was built in secret, and the military gasoline in the depot is directly related to whether the Flying Tigers' fighters can take to the air, and it is no exaggeration to say that this depot is the lifeblood of the nearby war zone and air power.
After this hard-won military gasoline was stored in a secret oil depot, it was heavily guarded by heavy troops. Aside from the sappers who built the oil depot, even the locals didn't know that there was a huge U.S. oil depot here.
The Flying Tigers and the squadron guarding the oil depot both believed that the safety of this oil depot must be foolproof, but unexpectedly, the Japanese spies had long been eyeing this huge secret oil depot.
On April 20, 1943, the Japanese air force came to the sky above Diecai Mountain, but the troops in charge of guarding the oil depot did not care. Because from time to time, the Japanese army would issue provocations above Guilin.
Suddenly, eight Japanese planes came straight at the oil depot, and these eight planes bombed the oil depot with lightning speed.
The troops guarding the oil depot immediately launched a counterattack, but in the face of the Japanese fighters hovering at an altitude of 10,000 meters, there was no effective way to stop them. It's all late......
That's it, this secret oil depot hidden halfway up the mountain**. More than 10,000 gallons of aviation gasoline stored in the depot burned out with **.
This is the main oil depot of the Flying Tigers in the Guangxi region, and its strategic role is extremely important. Now, with the destruction of this oil depot, the Japanese devils have regained air supremacy in Guangxi.
A month after the bombing of the secret oil depot, the Japanese army began to be arrogant again. They believe that the Flying Tigers do not have enough energy to replenish them. Even if the plane lifts into the air, it will not be able to fight them for a long time. ** of the Japanese army began to bomb Guilin and other important military cities again.
Chennault was furious when he heard this, and he immediately concluded that the bombing of the oil depot must have something to do with the Japanese spies.
Because according to the law of provocations in the skies over Guilin in peacetime, they only dared to circle a few times in the sky above them, and did not dare to launch a substantive attack. Judging from the current indiscriminate bombing of the Guangxi area by the Japanese army, the Japanese army must have known that the Japanese Air Force had blown up the secret oil depot and that the Flying Tigers could not get supplies, so they dared to be so rampant.
General Chennault immediately reported the idea to his immediate superior, General Stilwell, who in turn reported the situation to Chiang Kai-shek.
In the face of pressure from the United States, Chiang Kai-shek attached great importance to it. He directly gave an order to Dai Li, director of the Military Command Bureau, asking Dai Li to take a plane to Guilin in person, and work with the intelligence chief of the 14th Air Force Morraide, and British intelligence experts to solve the case. Be sure to catch the Japanese spies who leaked the coordinates of the oil depot!
After Dai Li rushed to Guilin, he summoned all the military commanders in Guilin, and he personally led these agents to investigate suspicious people.
Before Dai Li's arrival in Guilin, neither the Americans nor the British found any useful clues, and soon after Dai Li's arrival in Guilin, he discovered that a woman who had come to Guilin from Hong Kong half a year ago was a major suspicion of being a spy.
This woman's name is Su Ji, she is extremely charming, she wanders among the powerful people in Guilin, and she is an out-and-out officialdom courtesan.
Dai Li believes that this woman often wanders among the powerful to learn the location of the secret oil depot.
But Dai Li's mind is so meticulous, after discovering that Su Ji is seriously suspected, he did not rush to arrest Su Ji for interrogation. Instead, let his spies secretly target Su Ji, and send someone to Hong Kong to investigate her background and details.
The spies who went to Hong Kong quickly investigated the details of Su Ji, who used to go to school in Guangzhou, later married a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, and made many donations in Hong Kong for the anti-Japanese resistance. The neighbors around her thought she was an aspiring anti-Japanese young woman, but this did not dispel Dai Li's suspicion of Su Ji, he always felt that Su Ji was a little familiar.
After a period of archival investigation, Dai Li finally remembered why it was familiar! It turned out that this Su Ji's real name was Chen Suzhen, who joined the Shanghai Navy in 1934, and later Nanjing fell, and Chen Suzhen surrendered after being captured by the Japanese secret services. After surrendering, Chen Suzhen became a Japanese female spy and helped the Japanese to brutalize their compatriots and invade China.
Dai Li, who also wanted to get more evidence, sent a handsome U.S. Air Force officer, Kinley, to a café owned by Su Ji to tease her. Soon, the two of them had a hot fight, but they didn't know that this was Dai Li's "beautiful man plan".
Jinli soon got the evidence of Su Ji's service to the Japanese, and the military commander immediately arrested Su Ji. After being arrested, Su Ji resolutely refused to admit that she was Chen Suzhen, and refused to disclose any information.
Su Ji also knew that she had already surrendered once, and if she said that all that was waiting for her was death, she would rather die than do it. Hence the scene at the beginning of this article.
The mandarin duck bath mentioned by Dai Li is to fill a basin of clear water with blood-sucking leeches, and once the leeches are adsorbed to the human body, they will suck a large amount of blood. It will even burrow into the body, and on the surface, this punishment is not as cruel as the torture that directly shows the blood, but it is only when the prisoner's whole body is crawling with leeches that you will know how painful it is.
Su Ji had heard of Dai Li's method when she was in the military command, and now that it was really her turn to enjoy it, how could she not be afraid? Before she was sentenced, she obediently confessed everything.
After Su Ji confessed, a large number of Japanese spies lurking in Guilin were arrested, and the traitors hiding in the Kuomintang were also eliminated. It stands to reason that someone like Suki deserves to be put to death.
But according to General Chennault's memoirs, Sue reappeared on the streets three years after the incident, still as charming as she was, holding the hand of a man who looked quite status-worthy and acting affectionately. That man must be a Kuomintang **.
Such a Japanese female spy, who has been shot dozens of times, has actually "come back from the dead". The world no longer knows what is behind it.
What is certain, however, is that this must be related to the intricate web of interests within the military command. The ** of the Kuomintang fell under the pomegranate skirt of this Japanese female spy one after another, directly exposing the corruption within the Kuomintang to the world.
