Cao San, the captain of a puppet military garrison, and "Sister Liu" is Liu Yumei from Dayezigou in Raohe County. Zhou Qichang, born in Qingzhou, Shandong, went to Dayezigou in Raohe County, Heilongjiang Province with his uncle at the age of 16, and became a soldier at the age of 18 and began his career as a horseman.
Zhou Qichang is tall and has high emotional intelligence, and was appreciated and recognized as his godson by Wang Fusen, the head of the local security regiment, and married his daughter to him. After the fall of the Northeast, Wang Fusen led the team to resist the Japanese, and Zhou Qichang also participated in the anti-Japanese coalition army and became the commander of the 2nd Division of the 7th Army.
To build a team, it is natural to have a name. The anti-Japanese armed forces are called "rescue" and "love", and Wang Fusen's team is named "Zhi**" and "Zhi**", which is strictly disciplined, has strong combat effectiveness, has won many battles, and has grown rapidly.
However, the growth of the ranks attracted the attention of the enemy, and Wang Fusen, who was over sixty years old, and his daughter (Zhou Qichang's wife) unfortunately fell into the hands of the enemy. Zhou Qichang stepped forward, took over the command, and continued to fight the Japanese army.
In June 1935, Zhou Qichang led his troops to participate in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army, and a year later it was reorganized into the 7th Army of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, serving as the commander of the 5th Regiment. The predecessor of the Anti-Japanese Federation was the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army, which was founded in 1936 and had only 6 armies and more than 10,000 people.
Under the leadership of Yang Jingyu, Zhao Shangzhi and others, the Anti-Japanese Federation grew rapidly, and developed into 11 armies in about a year, with a total strength of more than 30,000 troops.
The Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army led by General Yang Jingyu grew and posed a serious threat to Japan's colonial rule in Northeast China, making the enemy both bitter and fearful.
In the face of the Japanese puppet army's policy of luring and surrendering, division commander Zhou Qichang chose to stick to the belief of resisting Japan, and he knew that the strategy of "carrots and sticks" was just that the Japanese puppet army wanted to weaken the strength of the anti-Japanese alliance by dividing and disintegrating the generals of the anti-Japanese alliance.
With his firm belief and fearless courage, Division Commander Zhou became a role model for the generals of the Anti-Japanese Federation. At a conference, Master Zhou made an impassioned speech: "We are inseparable from the Japanese devils, and if anyone defects to the enemy, my six relatives will not recognize him, and I will dig his ancestral grave." ”
This sentence shows his incomparable love for the motherland and the nation, and also reflects his firm belief in the War of Resistance Against Japan. The Japanese puppet army also tried to lure Division Commander Zhou down, but he firmly refused, and severely punished the traitors who tried to commit treason to the enemy.
Division Commander Zhou's behavior is a powerful response to the Japanese puppet army's "carrot and stick" strategy, and he used his actions to show that no matter what kind of pressure and ** he faces, he will not shake the love and loyalty of the soldiers of the Anti-United Nations to the motherland and the nation.
His courage and firmness inspired more people to devote themselves to the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and fight to defend the dignity of the motherland and the nation.
Zhou Qichang refused to be a traitor, and the Japanese puppet army was unwilling. Cao San, as the captain of the puppet military garrison, was convinced that Zhou Qichang would have a weakness, so he found a breakthrough - Zhou Qichang's wife Liu Yumei.
Cao San took advantage of Liu Yumei's curiosity and compassion to befriend a fake family member of the Anti-Japanese Federation and provide her with a large cigarette. After Liu Yumei became addicted, the female prisoner was released, and she lost her big cigarette and was in agony.
This exposed Zhou Qichang's weakness, and finally Cao San's plan to persuade him to surrender succeeded.
The play directed by Cao San has just begun. Zhou Qichang received a letter from Cao San, which mentioned that if he wanted a wife, Cao San could return her to Zhao. Zhou Qichang was very concerned about his wife, but he did not reply, he thought that he could not make a deal with the Japanese army.
However, he treated Cao San's messenger with courtesy, which gave Cao San hope, so he released Liu Yumei. Zhou Qichang was overjoyed, but found that his wife was listless when she came back and was not interested in anything.
In addition, Liu Yumei also interfered in the affairs of the troops, making it difficult for Zhou Qichang to distinguish rewards and punishments. Although Zhou Qichang felt guilty about his wife, his foolishness and connivance with Liu Yumei led to discouragement.
Liu Yumei, who was suffering from a heavy tobacco addiction, began to ask Cao San's people for help, and even put forward conditions to persuade her husband to surrender.
Liu Yumei strongly persuaded her husband to join the devil, saying that the days of the Anti-Japanese Federation were difficult. Zhou Qichang finally agreed under the threat of his wife. Cao San arranged for bodyguards to accompany Liu Yumei back to the Anti-Union camp, and Zhou Qichang was very respectful to them.
Cao San sent supplies again, which aroused the confusion of the anti-union fighters. Zhou Qichang's cronies were silent, and most of the cadres and fighters who were determined to resist Japan reported the incident to the military headquarters. Zheng Luyan, director of the Political Department, secretly met with Wang Menglin, commander of the 3rd Division of the 5th Army of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, to discuss how to deal with the matter.
In September 1938, the team led by the two divided into two routes and quietly surrounded the Siheding, but Zhou Qichang was not here, but only disarmed his cronies.
Zhou Qichang went to the big flagpole and didn't know anything about what happened at the top of the Sihe. A few days later, he sensed something was wrong and was ready to take action. At this time, the troops led by Wang Menglin and Zheng Luyan arrived one after another and disarmed all the Zhou Qichang troops stationed at the flagpole.
Zhou Qichang and Liu Yumei were arrested, and the officers and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Union were filled with indignation and demanded that they be executed. Liu Yumei was killed, and Zhou Qichang was dragged into the woods and strangled with a rope.
Although Zhou Qichang was determined and unyielding, because he couldn't resist his wife's pillow wind, he finally betrayed the team and received the punishment he deserved. However, there are still people who avenge Zhou Qichang, believing that he was wrongfully killed.
The reason was that Zheng Luyan, the director of the Political Department of the 7th Army, who executed Zhou Qichang, later mistakenly killed other generals of the 7th Army, including Bi Yumin and Xu Fengshan. However, Zheng Luyan defected after being captured in October 1939, so there is speculation about whether Zhou Qichang was also killed by mistake.
According to the analysis of various sources, Zhou Qichang was not innocently killed, on the contrary, his case was not unjust. Although the organization later posthumously recognized Bi Yumin and Xu Fengshan as martyrs, it did not rehabilitate Zhou Qichang.
