Most people think that Zeng Kuoqing is the oldest student in the first phase of Whampoa, and some people say that it is Fan Hanjie and Hu Zongnan, but it is not right, Fan and Hu were born in 1896, Zeng Kuoqing was born in 1895, but there are two of them, born in 1894. One is Li Xianzhou, who was introduced above, and the other is Han Jun, who was captured during the Battle of Laiwu. He's a legend.
He was an early member of the CCP and an extremely important figure. Han Jun, also known as Zhongjin, is a native of Huanggang, Hubei. At the time of the establishment of the Whampoa Military Academy, he had already worked in the relevant departments of the Guangzhou Military Academy, and he applied for the Whampoa Military Academy, and Deng Yanda was his recommender. And soon after entering the school, he joined the Communist Party of China, and it is said that his introduction to the party was Chen Geng. A year later, the two went to the Soviet Union to study, and returned to China due to the start of the Northern Expedition. Han Jun was gradually promoted to the colonel and staff officer of the Kuomintang Zhang Fakui's Second Front Army Guard Regiment, the head of the regiment was Lu Deming, and the instructor was Xin Huanwen.
After the Nanchang Uprising broke out, the three of them went to chase the rebel troops in makeup according to the instructions of the Hunan Provincial Party Committee. Later, he found Xiang Jingyu, the person in charge of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee at that time, and asked them to return, master the troops, and launch the Autumn Harvest Uprising. It was also decided that Lu should be the commander-in-chief of the riot, Han should be the deputy commander-in-chief, and Xin would be the political instructor, and they were also allocated funds and sent six cadres. Just as they were on the way back to the troops, Han Jun** and Xin Huanwen died.
Han Jun was released two months later, the world has changed, he could not find an organization, so he had to go to the Guangdong Army Chen Ming's cardinal headquarters, and then exposed his identity, under the cover of Chen, went to Shanghai, still could not find the organization, so he and several classmates founded the "Whampoa Revolutionary Alumni Association", which attracted the attention of the "Whampoa Alumni Association" under the control of Chiang Kai-shek, and was arrested and imprisoned again. It was not until 1932 that he was escorted to Nanjing, where he was lured by Chiang Kai-shek and thrown into Chiang's arms. This is also the "cow" he once bragged about in the merit forest, saying that he was the deputy commander of the Autumn Harvest Uprising.
Regarding his capture, it is also a pity, according to Han Jun's own recollection, Laiwu was defeated, and they had fled to Qingshi Pass, 20 miles southwest of Boshan, but they were attacked by the People's Liberation Army again, and the troops were surrounded in a river beach. Huang Yanxun, a senior staff member beside Han Jun, suggested talking to the PLA, which of course meant surrender. Han Jun didn't say anything at the time, Huang Yanxun thought he had acquiesced, so he shouted: "Is there a PLA around, don't shoot, the commander of the 73rd Army is here, please send someone to negotiate." Soon, a few PLA troops came over and asked: Who is the commander of the 73rd Army? Han Jun replied: I am Han Jun, the commander of the 73rd Army, I am tired, I can't stand up, I can't run, people watch it. The People's Liberation Army called a stretcher and carried him away.
After Han Jun met the head of the East China Field Army, considering that he took the initiative to surrender at the last critical moment, and had the experience of working for the party in the early days, and in the future, there was no head-on conflict with our party, and he had made meritorious contributions in the War of Resistance, so he persuaded him to do some work to persuade him to surrender. Han Jun couldn't think about it at that time, and was also worried about the safety of his family in the Kuomintang area, so he refused the request of the People's Liberation Army and did not treat him as a defector at that time.
Fortunately, the eldest student of the first phase of Whampoa performed well in the reform of the war criminals management center, and was pardoned in 1962, and later settled in Wuhan, where he died in 1989.
Among the works of the public, two are debatable. One said that he was the most important general of the great man, how how, Han Jun said that he and the great man jointly led the Autumn Harvest Uprising, how. In fact, he did not read the historical materials carefully, and he, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Autumn Harvest Uprising, was decided by the Hubei Provincial Party Committee, and the great man had not yet arrived in this army at that time, and they had not met. Later, the person in charge of the Autumn Harvest Uprising was determined by the Hunan Provincial Party Committee, which was not the same thing as this.
In another place, many people believe that in the TV series "Amnesty 1959", Ye Lisan's prototype is this Han Jun, the purpose is to cover up his history. The author believes that Ye Lisan is a composite artistic image, and the original character design is flawed, and it is impossible to make a "fake Han Jun" in order to cover up this personal experience. History is history, and if the Communist Party does not even have this mind, how can it achieve such great achievements. History
