In 1951, the news of the imprisonment of Chen Shanwen**, the leader of the bandits in Guangxi, spread all over the local area, and people hated his evil deeds, applauded, and beat gongs and drums to tell each other the good news.
However, soon after, the news that Chen Shanwen's death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment caused heated discussions, and the announcement issued by the party organization caused widespread discussion.
Chen's living conditions have also improved significantly, and he has a single room in prison and even an assistant. As a heinous bandit leader, why did he get such treatment?
A notorious bandit, Chen Shanwen, is ** because of his crimes. However, his sentence was commuted again and again, and he was even released in a short period of time, and later became a member of the Guangxi Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
What is even more surprising is that the volunteer soldiers also wrote a letter to thank him. Why is that? Chen Shanwen was a bandit leader who committed many crimes in Yulin, Guangxi, and everyone was punished.
However, he was treated differently after **. His sentence was commuted, even released, and he became a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. This begs the question: what did he do to get such treatment?
It turned out that Chen Shanwen had become a brother with Wang Jiating, the division commander of the Kuomintang army, and helped him organize bandits to launch a rebellion. However, Chen Shanwen did not want to be an enemy of the PLA, he was afraid of the PLA's trial, and had been planning an escape route.
However, his crimes were revealed and he was eventually arrested. However, Chen Shanwen's sentence has been repeatedly commuted and even released. This may be because he has helped Wang Jiating in the past, or because some of his other actions have been recognized.
In addition, the volunteer soldiers also wrote a special letter to thank him, perhaps because he had helped the PLA in the past, or because some of his actions were helpful to the PLA.
Whatever the reason, Chen's transformation has surprised people. He went from a notorious bandit to a member of the Guangxi Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and was even thanked by the volunteer soldiers.
This is undoubtedly a confusing and surprising story.
In the early days of the liberation of Yulin City, Chen Shanwen took advantage of his immaturity to unite with bandits to launch a rebellion, burning, killing and looting, which made the people of Yulin City panic. The people immediately organized the militia and the masses**, and with an organized and orderly strategy, they successfully annihilated the bandits from all walks of life, and Chen Shanwen finally retreated to Funiu Village.
In order to completely eradicate the evil bandits, our army formed a powerful anti-bandit force and launched a fierce attack on Funiu Village. Due to the strong strength of our army, we soon succeeded in breaking through the barberry village.
Although Chen Shanwen is smart, he has nothing to do in the face of the strength of our army. Seeing that the tide was turning, he buried himself in a pile of cow dung and tried to hide from our troops.
However, no matter how he hid, he could not hide from the sharp gaze of our army. Soon his traces were discovered by the reconnaissance team of our army. When Chen Shanwen was caught, the villagers came to watch and insult him, a heinous villain.
Chen Shanwen confessed to his crimes, and he understood that the crimes he committed were not too much even if they were sentenced to death. However, the strange thing is that he was in prison for a long time, and no one came to judge him.
Just when he was panicking and at a loss, someone finally came to tell him: "Chen Shanwen, our party has a policy, for criminals with skills, our party can give him a chance to reform himself!" ”
Hearing the news, Chen Shanwen was relieved, and his death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. This is undoubtedly a great gift for him.
In the newly established New China, Chen Shanwen has become an outstanding talent urgently needed by the country with his unique secret recipe for barge. However, the beginning of the military medical career did not go well.
In the summer of 1926, after graduating from the Guangdong Wangtang School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he planned to open a pharmacy in Guangzhou, but failed to do so due to the policy restrictions of Guangzhou**. After that, Chen Shanwen became a German military medical assistant in Wu Peifu's military medical director department under the recommendation of his friend Yi Yunchang.
However, this German doctor was extremely disdainful of traditional Chinese medicine, and did not even give Chen Shanwen any chance to play, resulting in Chen Shanwen's working environment being extremely depressing. Despite the difficulties, Chen Shanwen did not give up his TCM philosophy and skills.
Wu Peifu and Chen Shanwen are people who are eager to get ahead. In order to prove his ability, he bought medicinal herbs to refine the ointment and used it on the wounded**, and the effect was remarkable.
When the German ** doctor learned of this, not only did he not praise him, but angrily scolded him for making his own opinion. Chen Shanwen was a violent temper and couldn't bear it, so he kicked the German ** doctor down and turned to leave.
Although he pursued all the way, Chen Shanwen finally managed to escape to Guangdong. As a medical student, Chen Shanwen decided to continue his medical career and entered the Lin Hu Department to become a military doctor.
Here, he was not bullied, concentrated on research, and refined the secret recipe of barges in his hand to perfection. However, Chen Shanwen is not satisfied with just a small military doctor, he wants to climb up and make money.
Chen Shanwen heard that Zhang Fakui's leg was accidentally injured, so he immediately went to Zhang Fakui's house with a medical kit and successfully treated him with the secret recipe of barge. Zhang Fakui greatly appreciated Chen Shanwen's medical skills, not only rewarded him with 200 oceans, but also awarded him the rank of major, and since then the "miracle doctor" Chen Shanwen has become famous in the army.
However, Chen Shanwen was not satisfied with this. He used the contacts he had accumulated in the army to start a business, buying tobacco at a low price from Guizhou, Yunnan, and then selling it in Liuzhou.
These few times the business made him a lot of money, but it also attracted the attention of the inspectorate. Chen Shanwen's tobacco was detained, which made him realize that he had to make changes in order to maintain his status and wealth in the army.
Chen Shanwen was left behind for treating Zhang Fakui, and he was shocked and helpless. He felt that he could not realize his value in the army, and the rules of the army also hindered his path to wealth.
So he decided to resign from his position as a military doctor, go home to practice medicine and use the secret recipe in his hand to make money. So, where does this secret recipe come from? According to Chen Shanwen's recollection, when he was 18 years old, his family was targeted by bandits, and one of his relatives, surnamed Lai, was robbed by bandits in the mountains on his way home.
When Chen Shanwen heard this, he was furious: "It hit me on the head!" "Chen Shanwen had poor physique when he was a child, and his father specially asked his master to teach him martial arts, on the one hand, to enhance his physique, and on the other hand, to protect himself in a critical moment.
However, the practice of martial arts also made him develop an impulsive and irritable personality, and this time when he heard that his relatives had been robbed, he immediately went up the mountain to settle accounts with the bandits. Chen Shanwen took a few strong men from his family to the local bandit's lair Huangjiuling, and after arriving, he roared loudly at the gate of the village: "Hurry up and release people, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" ”
In the past, this kind of behavior was undoubtedly looking for death, because Chen Shanwen only had a few people, but there were hundreds of people in the bandits' den, and it would definitely be easy to catch them.
Chen Shanwen was quite lucky, and happened to meet the bandit leader who led the crowd out of the village to rob, and there were only a few guards left in the village. Chen Shanwen and several family members held sticks with thick bowls and attacked the guards, beating them crookedly and their eyes glazed gold.
In the end, Chen Shanwen's relatives surnamed Lai were successfully rescued. Unexpectedly, Chen Shanwen's right arm was accidentally broken in the melee, and he grinned in pain. The relatives surnamed Lai were very grateful and thanked them again and again.
When he saw Chen Shanwen injured in order to save himself, he immediately took out a bottle, poured the liquid in the bottle, and sprinkled it on Chen Shanwen's right arm. Suddenly, Chen Shanwen felt a chill, and the pain was instantly reduced.
It turned out that the family of relatives surnamed Lai has practiced medicine for generations, and there are even imperial doctors who serve the emperor in the palace. Chen Shanwen was amazed by the efficacy of this medicine, so he asked his relatives surnamed Lai about its principle.
Seeing that Chen Shanwen was very interested in this medicine, the relatives surnamed Lai thought for a moment and decided to teach him the secret recipe of this medicine to repay Chen Shanwen for saving his life.
Chen Shanwen accidentally got the secret recipe for bargeing bones, and this prescription finally saved his life. This experience gave him a keen interest in Chinese medicine, so he entered Guangdong Wangtang School of Traditional Chinese Medicine to study Chinese medicine.
Chen Shanwen is smart and studious, and has an in-depth understanding of pharmacology. Initially, he planned to open a pharmacy after graduation to treat diseases and save lives. However, as his knowledge grew, he began to pursue fame and fortune and became a treacherous businessman.
After the experience with Zhang Fakui caused him to lose a lot, he returned to his hometown and resumed his old job. Because of his medicinal effects, he is known locally as the "Reincarnation of Hua Tuo", and people know that he has a mysterious prescription in his hands.
In his hometown, he had more time to study the prescription, and he also added two new Chinese herbs to it, which made the medicine more effective and the patient recovered faster. However, this peaceful life makes Chen Shanwen feel bored, and he longs to see the outside world.
Chen Shanwen no longer wants to stay in the army, because being a military doctor is hard and the income is meager. So, he decided to go to Hong Kong. However, he was recognized as soon as he arrived in Hong Kong.
That day, two Englishmen approached him and came up with a prescription to buy him. This prescription has a significant effect on pain relief, anti-inflammatory, and wound healing, and is a savior for the wounded during the war.
But Chen Shanwen was not stupid, he cleverly slipped away and returned to Guangzhou. At this time, the Kuomintang Major General Lu Chunqian had already heard of Chen Shanwen's superb medical skills, so he invited him to join his subordinates as a military doctor.
However, Chen Shanwen has no interest in being a military doctor at all, and his only concern is to make money.
Lu Chunxuan's real goal is the secret recipe of the barge, and Chen Shanwen also knows this. Just when he was struggling with how to get rid of Lu Chunxuan, Chen Weicong appeared and spent money to solve the problem.
Why is Chen Weicong so kind? The businessman is unprofitable, and he takes a fancy to Chen Shanwen's medical attainments, hoping to revitalize the pharmaceutical industry in his hometown through cooperation, and at the same time earn more wealth.
The two co-founded a pharmaceutical factory in Yulin, Guangxi, with Chen Weicong providing funds and Chen Shanwen providing technology, and the business was booming. However, Chen Shanwen's fall should also have started at this time.
As his business expanded, his wealth grew, which made him arrogant, and he spent a lot of money, beating people up if they didn't like him, and then using the money to solve the problem.
Later, he also spent money to buy an official position to satisfy his official addiction.
Chen Shanwen was afraid of the sanctions of our army, and colluded with Wang Jiating, burning, killing and looting, so that the local people were in danger. However, the people of Yulin City finally captured him and released our party's policy of loving and cherishing talents, so that he escaped from the ghost gate.
At that time, it was a critical moment to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and Chen Shanwen's medicine was urgently needed by the soldiers on the battlefield. Therefore, the party organization opened a room for him in the prison, staffed with an assistant Zhang Sandi, but he was executed for bad intentions.
Although our party valued his medical skills and bone water, it still respected his wishes, only let him give birth, and did not force him to hand over the secret recipe. This respect made Chen Shanwen deeply grateful, and he worked harder to boil the bone water.
In prison, he worked tirelessly to boil bone water and cloud essence to reduce the pain of the soldiers on the front line to resist US aggression and aid Korea, so that their wounds could heal as soon as possible.
North Korea's winters are extremely cold, and Yun Xiang essence has a significant effect on frostbite**, and many soldiers have benefited from it. After the war, the volunteers wrote a letter to Chen Shanwen to thank him, and he was deeply moved.
In prison, in addition to medicine, Chen Shanwen began to deeply reflect on his evil deeds. In order to alleviate his thoughts, the party organization specially brought his wife and children to live with him and arranged a place for them to live.
In addition, Chen Shanwen was also allowed to move freely in a certain area. These feelings of love made him feel deeply warm, and he was determined to hand over the secret recipe of barge water to the country.
Chen Shanwen's special contribution led to his commutation of death sentence to seven years in prison and his early release. In 1956, at the age of nearly 70, Chen Shanwen regained his freedom. Because he is a pharmaceutical expert, the party organization specially arranged for him to serve as the deputy director of the Yulin Pharmaceutical Factory and a member of the first CPPCC of Guangxi Province, and his monthly income even exceeded that of the factory director.
He was also invited by the leader to see a doctor and received many praises. Chen Shanwen always said in his later years: "The party and the people have the grace of reinvention for me, and they are my eternal reborn parents." ”
Chen Shanwen's life was full of twists and turns, and he was driven by fame and fortune when he was young, and he made many mistakes. However, under the guidance of the party, he had the courage to correct his mistakes and became a doctor who saved many lives.
His experience is in line with an old Chinese saying: "Knowing mistakes can be corrected, and good is great!" ”
