After the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in 1978, some young people who had nothing to do in the "Ten Years of Turmoil" had nothing to do and began to get involved in illegal crimes, and the social order in China deteriorated.

In order to curb this trend, on August 25, 1983, the Communist Party of China issued the "Decision on Cracking Down on Criminal Offenses", determined to resolutely crack down on criminals, which is the famous 1983 National Strike Hard Incident.

This crackdown does not look at identity, regardless of contribution, as long as the crime is committed, they will be arrested. Among them, Zhu Guohua, the grandson of the marshal, was executed for "messing with the relationship between men and women".

In fact, there was also a son of a founding general who was executed during this period, and his crime was more serious than Zhu Guohua's. The son who was executed in 1983 and 1984 was named Chen Dongping, and his father was the founding general Chen Zaidao.

Chen Dongping was sentenced to death for a serious crime he committed in 1962.

In the flames of the Korean War, China realized that it could not effectively fight a powerful enemy by relying only on existing ** equipment. In order to protect the dignity and security of the country, China has decided to vigorously develop the defense industry and science and technology to enhance its military strength.

As a positive response to this strategy, General Chen Geng was appointed as the first dean of the School of Engineering in China.

As a representative of the Chinese Academy of Military Engineering, Kazakhstan Military Industry bears the heavy responsibility of cultivating military scientific and technological talents. At that time, the founding of the People's Republic of China was still short, and after participating in the Korean War, the domestic economic situation was not good, and scientific and technological talents were scarce.

In order to create this academy, it was decided to recruit cadres from other military schools to work at the academy. Because the college is located in Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province, it is known as "Harbin Military Industry".

In 1953, the Kazakh military industry attracted much attention as the only university selected for the 156 key projects of the Soviet Union in China. Therefore, many high-ranking cadres of New China sent their children to study in Kazakhstan's military industry, including the children of seven founding marshals and six generals.

Therefore, the Kazakh military industry is also known as the "red children's school". At the beginning of the establishment of the Kazakh Military Industry School, it was to serve the Korean battlefield, and the ** children who were admitted to the college were ready to fight in North Korea.

Students who are admitted to the Kazakh military industry need to study hard and enter this university with real talents.

Kazakh military industry"The memorial was accepted in 1958"Escort students"Later, appeared"Go through the back door"phenomenon, some ** children with substandard qualifications have also been mixed"Kazakh military industry"and became"Black sheep"。

Among them, Chen Dongping, a gentleman, is a typical representative. On the contrary, the founding general General Chen Zaidao can be called"Tiger fathers have no dogs"of the model. He participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising and the Jute Uprising at the age of 18, and became a member of the Chinese Communist Party and served as a platoon commander of the Red Army at the age of 19.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, General Chen Zaidao served as the deputy brigade commander of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and smashed the encirclement and suppression of the base areas by the Japanese puppet army many times. Under the leadership of Chen Zaidao, the comrades of the Party Committee of the Southern Hebei District successfully established anti-Japanese regimes in more than 20 counties.

After the war, General Chen Zaidao served as the commander of the second column of the Central Plains Field Army, and successfully blocked the 11-day offensive of the Kuomintang Fifth Army in the Longqiji battle of the Juye Campaign, which became a model example of defensive operations in the history of our country.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, General Chen Zaidao successively served as deputy commander of the Central South Military Region, commander of the Wuhan Military Region, and commander of the Hubei Provincial Military Region. Therefore, he was awarded the rank of general in 1955.

Although General Chen Zaidao has made great contributions to the country, his son Chen Dongping has gradually degenerated due to the problems of family environment and family education. While Chen Dongping enjoyed the revolutionary achievements of his father's generation, he also lost his way.

He gradually developed the idea of superiority, bullying men and women, being exposed to unhealthy content, and even acting recklessly at school. Although the family had been trying to help him solve the problem through internal connections, in the end they had to admit that they could no longer discipline the child.

In the summer of 1960, Chen Dongping was "escorted" to the "Kazakhstan Military Industry" and started his new life.

During the reign of Chiang Kai-shek, Chen Dongping, the son of the general, was influenced by the "propaganda tactics" of the US intelligence bureau and established the "Voice of Taiwan" radio station to spread false news to Chinese mainland and advocate the "greatness and advancement" of Taiwan's puppet regime.

However, Chen Dongping's family's emphasis on political education led him to listen to the "Voice of Taiwan" program as a joke and pay little attention to it when he was in high school. Later, Chen Dongping was escorted to study in the "Kazakh Military Industry", and the strict discipline made him feel deeply depressed and bored, his mind never put on studying, and he often pretended to be sick to avoid studying, and every semester he failed several subjects, and even fought with other classmates, and was punished by the school many times.

However, Chen Dongping didn't care about this. General Chen Zaidao was deeply helpless about his behavior, although Chen Dongping was reprimanded by his father many times when he returned home, but he would always be the same, and even worse.

Finally, in August 1962, Chen Dongping, who could not stand the strict discipline of the military academy, reported to the school that he had a serious illness and asked the school to allow him to go home to recuperate for half a year.

General Chen Dongping's son was expelled from the school for making trouble, and General Chen Zaidao agreed to his request in order to let his son go home to recuperate. However, Chen Dongping's behavior at home did not improve, but became more rebellious.

When his father found out he was listening to "Voice of Taiwan" and "**", he decided to lock him up in the house. During his confinement at home, Chen Dongping began to yearn for the Western world.

In the end, General Chen Zaidao finally agreed to release Chen Dongping. Although Chen Dongping came out, he did not immediately go out to cause trouble, but behaved "well-behaved".

When his father noticed that his attitude towards himself had changed, he began to watch "inside movies" with some of his childhood friends. In those days, it was not as easy to watch movies as they are now, especially the movies made in Western countries, which were rarely released in China, and the general public rarely had the opportunity to see them, and only senior cadres and their families could **.

In the 70s of the last century, there was also a saying about this kind of "internal film": "Chinese films actually shouted slogans, North Korean films cried and laughed, Vietnamese films were airplane cannons, Albanian films were inexplicable, Romanian films hugged and hugged, and Japanese films were invoiced." ”

In the last century, Chen Dongping was the best in the Western world in the internal film, and decided to get in touch with the Kuomintang and go to Taiwan to enjoy the "flower world". However, after confirming the idea of defecting, he quickly sent a letter to the Taiwan spy in accordance with the contact information provided in the "Voice of Taiwan" program, saying that he wanted to "go up the mountain and join the gang."

However, Chen Dongping did not listen carefully to the lectures during school, so he did not know any "secrets", and asked him to steal his father's information, but he did not dare, so he fell into a dilemma.

After careful consideration, Chen Dongping decided to keep in touch with the Taiwan side first, and the matter of "stealing secrets" would be discussed "later." The Taiwan spies did not know the true situation of Chen Dongping, and thought that he could "be admitted" to the "Kazakh military industry" because of his "real ability and practical learning." So they patiently kept in touch with him, and in order to gain his trust, they also gave Chen Dongping the contact information of the US secret service in Thailand "to show his sincerity."

Chen Dongping was very excited when he received the contact information given to him by the Taiwan side for the US spies, and in late November 1962 he sent an international letter to Thailand, asking the United States to help him "escape from Chinese mainland and go to Taiwan to 'join freedom.'"

However, he knew very well that once the letter was seized, he might not be able to go to Taiwan in his life, so he used a pseudonym at the end of the letter. However, at that time, China and Thailand did not have diplomatic relations, and the higher authorities were relatively strict in reviewing international correspondence, so Chen Dongping's letter was seized by the Hubei Provincial Public Security Department on December 1.

After the Hubei Provincial Public Security Department intercepted a letter in the 50s and 60s of the last century, it quickly submitted a report to the Ministry of Public Security and requested that the Ministry of Public Security send experts to identify the letter.

After several months of investigation and visits, the public security department locked up Chen Dongping, the son of General Chen Zaidao, and confirmed that he was a major suspect. Because this matter involves the "mainland" conspiracy of the son of the founding general and the Taiwan authorities, the higher-level departments attach great importance to it.

On March 18, 1963, Lieutenant General Cai Shunli, Minister of Security of the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army, led a special guest to the "Kazakh Military Industry".

Cai Shunli's first sentence made the two of them startled: "Dean Liu, Political Commissar Xie, the organization suspects that Chen Dongping, a student of the Missile Engineering Department of your college, is suspected of treason and defection to the enemy, please assist in the investigation." ”

Although Chen Dongping's studies were not good, he had access to military secrets, so the leaders of the academy attached great importance to Cai Shunli's request and immediately launched an investigation against Chen Dongping.

Chen Dongping's classmates exposed a large number of his crimes, and Chen Dongping himself confessed, admitting that he tried to defect and secretly contacted Taiwanese agents.

After summarizing the opinions provided by the General Political Department, the party committee of the Military Engineering Academy held that Chen Dongping's behavior seriously violated the rules of the university, and decided to expel him from the school, the regiment, and the party, and to carry out two years of labor reform.

The impact of Chen Dongping's defection case is very far-reaching, so before Cai Shunli left, he specially asked the college to hold a cadre meeting and a meeting of party members of the children of cadres in the college, as an example to "teach a lesson" to the ** children in the college.

Chen Dongping's case also alarmed*** When he knew that his nephew Mao Yuanxin and Chen Dongping were roommates in the upper and lower bunks, he specially called Mao Yuanxin over to talk.

Mao Yuanxin reported the situation in the dormitory to ***, and was criticized for having counter-revolutionaries in the class, but Mao Yuanxin said that he had no idea about it. When explaining the reason why Chen Dongping became bad, he was further criticized by ***. ”

Chen Dongping** avoided labor during the period, but was sent to a sanatorium for vacation. General Chen Zaidao decided to let him work as an ordinary person, but he continued to oppress the masses, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.

The local people could not bear it until 1983, when they were able to report Chen Dongping's evil deeds to the public security department.

Criminals shot during the Strike Hard Campaign: At that time, it was during the "Strike Hard" period, and ** attached great importance to the "Strike Hard" work. ** Comrade made a special meeting with the leaders of the Ministry of Public Security, stressing that it is necessary to severely crack down on serious criminal offenders and give them severe legal sanctions.

This "strike hard" operation insists that everyone is equal before the law, and that all people will be punished according to law, regardless of whether the other party is a ** or a civilian. Among them is Zhu Guohua, the grandson of the marshal, who was shot in accordance with the law for messing with the relationship between men and women.

Therefore, after receiving a report from the masses about Chen Dongping, the public security department quickly arrested him. After interrogation, Chen Dongping admitted that he had committed illegal and criminal acts, and admitted that he did not work hard to reform during the ** period, but instead took a "vacation" in a nursing home.

In April 1984, the Luoyang People's Court announced after a public trial that Chen Dongping was sentenced to death and immediately executed. In the end, Chen Dongping was executed.

During the strike hard period, not only Zhu Guohua and Chen Dongping, but also Hu Xiaoyang, the son of Hu Lijiao, former second secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, and Chen Xiaomeng, the son of Chen Qiwu, former deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, were sentenced to death.

It is precisely because of China's firm determination to crack down on illegal and criminal activities that China's law and order has been significantly improved and it has become one of the safest countries in the world.
