In the year, the minister was killed, ** handled the case, and Wang Hongwen made trouble.

On October 21, 1973, a major case shocked the whole country, and Li Zhen, the third minister of the Ministry of Public Security, died mysteriously in the compound of the heavily walled institution. In order to find out the truth, **instructed*** to set up a case-solving team, with the assistance of Wu Zhong, Yu Sang and others.

After three months of investigation, the crime team determined in January 1974 that Li Zhen had committed suicide. But"Gang of Four"thought that he killed him, and Wang Hongwen tried in vain to use this case to make trouble.

Who killed Li Zhen? What was the cause of his death? What incidents did Wang Hongwen create? He is a high-powered **, and he is also a founding major general with great military achievements. In 1936, he joined the revolutionary ranks, and after joining the party, he has been engaged in political propaganda work in the army, during which he participated"Rectification movement"。

Beginning in 1943, he joined the 129th Division and successively served as director of the Political Department and political commissar.

Li Zhen has made many important contributions to the political work of our army. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was sent to work in the military regions of Chongqing, Shenyang and other places, and successively served as the political commissar of the 12th Army and the director of the Political Department of the Shenyang Military Region.

During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he participated in the Battle of Shangganling and made great achievements for the final victory of our army. Later, with these exploits, Li Zhen was transferred to work in the Ministry of Public Security.

In 1970, Xie Fu was seriously ill and could not preside over the work of the Ministry of Public Security, and Li Zhen began to take over the specific affairs of the Ministry of Public Security. In 1972, at the suggestion of ***, Li Zhen officially served as the Minister of Public Security.

However, after only about a year in office, he died mysteriously in the geothermal pipes of the agency compound, which is very puzzling. After Li Zhen passed away, the case-solving team composed of Yu Sang, Wu Zhong and others determined that the cause of death was "suicide in fear of crime" after intense investigation and evidence collection.

* After the finalization was published in the form of a document, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the "Gang of Four", especially the reaction of Vice Chairman Wang Hongwen.

In order to characterize Li Zhen's death as "he killed", Wang Hongwen did not hesitate to face his life, and Yang Gui and Zhu Jiayao, members of the crime-solving team, urged them to condemn Li Zhen as "he killed" as soon as possible, otherwise the case would drag on for three or five years.

Wang Hongwen's purpose is obvious, he does not want the Ministry of Public Security to recover. As early as 1967, Wang Hongwen instructed Xie Fuzhi, the main culprit of the "Gang of Four," to disrupt the Ministry of Public Security, so that the Ministry of Public Security almost lost its functional role.

In fact, a month after Li Zhen's death, the case-solving team led by *** has made it clear that Li Zhen committed suicide. But in order to create an incident, Wang Hongwen asked Zhu Jiayao, who was placed in the crime-solving team, to tell right and wrong.

His approach is actually known to everyone in Sima Zhao's heart.

Although the "Gang of Four" still had ill intentions about the cause of Li Zhen's death and wanted to create chaos through Zhu Jiayao and Xu Haitao, they failed to stop the pace of justice.

In the report on Li Zhen's case submitted by the Ministry of Public Security to **, it was clearly pointed out that Li Zhen participated in the conspiracy activities of the Lin and Jiang groups, and after the conspiracy of ** was exposed, he committed suicide in fear of being examined by the organization.

However, Yu Sang and Liu Fuzhi, who investigated Li Zhen's suicide case, were framed and imprisoned by the "Gang of Four". Although they were rescued after the truth was revealed, they were still subjected to false criticism.

**chose *** to be in charge of this case because *** was deeply trusted by ***, and he had been actively fighting against the "Gang of Four" during that special period.
