There is a saying in China that good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil. This sentence was used at the beginning of the founding of New China, and there are countless living examples. In the same way, during the war years, some people were thanked and rewarded for doing good deeds or meritorious deeds back then, and some people did bad things, even if they were deeply hidden, they would still be exposed in the end and be punished as they deserved.
is like Song Dianyuan in the ** year, who was incognito at the beginning of liberation, and was exposed in the end, and the ** marshal personally ordered him to be shot.
Song Dianyuan was born in Zhangbei County, Hebei Province in 1914, from a poor background, and was the fifth oldest among his brothers and sisters. Due to the doting parents and lack of discipline, Song Dianyuan beat and scolded people when he was a child, and often stole chickens and dogs. When he was ten years old, Song Dianyuan became addicted to gambling again, and he was out of control, and secretly sold things in order to make money from gambling. His father couldn't handle it, so he had to send him to a local landlord to herd his horses.
Later, Song Dianyuan joined the army with his employer, but he couldn't endure the hardships, so he became a deserter again and returned to his hometown, idle, and gambled as a career. The family was helpless.
Song Dianyuan got acquainted with a group of ruffians, causing trouble, and every time he went to the county seat, he made a fuss. In the early 40s, Song Dianyuan heard that the Japanese were recruiting laborers, so he and a group of "brothers" went to mine for the Japanese. The work was very heavy, and when they were about to pick their son and leave, Song Dianyuan dug up a few guns in the cave, and escaped with his companions with a bandit leader, and started a green forest business.
After a while, Song Dianyuan changed his court again and switched to another bandit leader. Then the bandit leader was in a firefight, so Song Dianyuan set up his own door, took more than 20 people to pull up the pole, wandered around several nearby counties, hijacked the road and kidnapped tickets, and openly collected protection fees in the county, and his power became bigger and bigger.
Song Dianyuan soon became the leader of the bandits who occupied the mountain as the king. But he doesn't pay attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes, not only robbing the rich, but also the poor people, and he is notorious. He had never studied, but he did bad things in a variety of ways, and before kidnapping the ticket, he had to ask the God of Wealth, and the hostages refused to give in, so they hung up and beat him, whipped them with whips, scalded them with a fire shovel, poured boiling water, scraped meat with bullets, and finally did not give money.
If he entered the village, Song Dianyuan asked his subordinates to grab the valuable ones first, and the guns, horses, and big cigarettes of the rich families were the first choice, and then they would take what was valuable. Ordinary villagers have worthless things, so they will rob chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, and even take a few pieces of torn cotton jackets.
For example, in the summer of 1942, Song Dianyuan led people to a village in Kangbao County, and robbed for a whole day before leaving. Before leaving, Song Dianyuan fell in love with a rather beautiful village woman and wanted to tie her up on a horse and take her away, but the village woman's father-in-law tried desperately to stop her and broke her leg with a shot.
At that time, Cao Kai, a bandit-born sergeant in the Chahar League Office, had a friendship with Song Dianyuan, and reorganized Song Dianyuan's men and horses into a squadron and made him the squadron leader. Soon Song Dianyuan's men and horses were reorganized by the Japanese army, and they began to spare no effort to serve the Japanese army, and cooperated with the Japanese puppet army to encircle and suppress the anti-Japanese base areas many times, and brutalized the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians.
For bandits, whoever gives money will follow whomever they want, and if they have milk, they will be their mothers, Song Dianyuan has been with the puppet army, with the Japanese, and has also been an errand for the Kuomintang, and he has done all the bad things. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, Song Dianyuan took the remnants to defect to the ** in Wuchuan County, Suiyuan, with Cao Kai, and was incorporated into the cavalry unit.
At that time, Song Dianyuan still had twenty or thirty people by his side, and in order to entrap him, he was given the title of temporary head of the cavalry regiment. Song Dianyuan recruited people with this title, and started a bandit business, killing people everywhere, and expanding to hundreds of people.
In the autumn of 1945, when Song Dianyuan led people to stay in Zhangyoufang Village, Kangbao County, he heard that Zhang Yuntao, a staff member of the liberated area, was also in the village, so he arrested Zhang Yuntao. The next day, Song Dianyuan's subordinate escorted Zhang Yuntao to a certain place and met the work team of the liberated area, and the two sides exchanged fire.
The team in the liberated areas had few people and few guns, so they had to fight and retreat, and three more people were captured during the retreat. Song Dianyuan ordered Zhang Yuntao and the other four to be shot on the spot. Some of his subordinates knew Zhang Yuntao and interceded on his behalf, but Song Dianyuan didn't listen, so Zhang Yuntao and the other four were all killed.
When our troops arrived when they heard the news, Song Dianyuan had already walked away. A few days later, Song Dianyuan ransacked another village on the road, and despite the pleading of the villagers, he snatched all the valuable things, mules, horses, cattle and sheep.
At the end of 1945, Song Dianyuan sent a company commander with 200 people to Huade County to commit crimes, but the road was surrounded by our army, and none of them succeeded. The bandit company commander and several others were tried and shot. Song Dianyuan was furious and waited for an opportunity to retaliate. In March 1946, after Song Dianyuan incorporated a group of bandits, he broke into the villages and towns in the liberated areas to burn, kill and loot.
The Song Dianyuan bandits caused a lot of trouble, and our army specially dispatched troops to prevent it. Later, when Song Dianyuan fled to a certain place in Kangbao County, he was discovered by our cavalry, a fierce battle, most of the bandits were annihilated, Song Dianyuan fled back to his hometown, and did not dare to come out for a long time. In the autumn of 1946, when ** attacked the liberated area on a large scale, Song Dianyuan tried to make a comeback, gathered more than 200 bandits, and cooperated with ** to invade the liberated area.
In November of the same year, our army temporarily withdrew from Kangbao County, and Song Dianyuan was appointed as a company commander and stationed in the county. In the past two years, Song Dianyuan acted recklessly, did all kinds of evil, and became the commander of the security police regiment. It was not until December 1948 that the general trend had gone, and the Song Dianyuan bandits withdrew to Suiyuan.
In 1949, when Suiyuan was liberated, Song Dianyuan went incognito and did small business in the local area. But his nature is difficult to change, in 1950, and with more than a dozen bandits armed with guns to rob the road, as a result of being pursued by the People's Liberation Army, Song Dianyuan was desperate, fled to Baotou, changed his name to Wang Gui, and worked as a boiler worker in a hotel.
Song Dianyuan married a young and beautiful fourth aunt two years ago, and also brought it to Baotou. These four aunts are dressed up all day long, wearing gold and silver. The innkeeper was suspicious, thinking that a working man could afford to support such a wife. Although Song Dianyuan himself is low-key, he is willing to spend money on food and drink, and the more the innkeeper thinks about it, the more wrong he becomes, and secretly reports the situation to the local public security.
After the secret investigation by the public security, they were taken aback and found that the guy who burned the boiler in the hotel turned out to be Song Dianyuan, who was full of evil. In April 1951, police officers suddenly surrounded the hotel where Song Dianyuan was hiding and barricaded him inside. Song Dianyuan was very cunning, and when he found out that someone was going to arrest him, he deliberately shouted to the fourth aunt: "Get my gun!" ”
The public security officers did not rush in and shouted for Song Dianyuan to surrender. In the stalemate, the innkeeper secretly made an appointment with the public security to let him in to talk to Song Dianyuan, and hugged the other party unexpectedly, and the public security officers went in to arrest him. Song Dianyuan didn't guard against the shopkeeper and let him enter the house, but without saying a few words, the shopkeeper suddenly hugged Song Dianyuan and shouted: "Come on, come on!" ”
The public security officers immediately rushed in and held down Song Dianyuan to tie him up. This heinous bandit leader has finally been caught. The news alarmed the former commander of the North China Military Region, who was in charge of the work of the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army at that time, and his troops fought with Song Dianyuan's gang many times. Hearing that Song Dianyuan was arrested, ** demanded an immediate trial and execution.
At the end of April, Song Dianyuan was escorted back to Kangbao County for public trial, and the local people were crowded with indignation, accusing Song Dianyuan of his crimes. After the meeting, Song Dianyuan was escorted to the execution ground and shot in public.
