Wang Jingwei was the first traitor in China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and after his death, he suffered the same fate as the traitor Qin Jun, and his crime of being a traitor with his wife Chen Bijun was shaped into a statue, and he knelt for a long time in front of the martyrs' memorial tombs across the country, becoming the object of scorn by future generations.
Wang Jingwei and his wife had 6 children before their deaths, after the fall of the Wang puppet government, in addition to the premature death of the eldest son, the other 5 children fled the mainland, in 2005, the second son Wang Wenti returned to the mainland from Hong Kong to worship his parents, and what caught his eyes was the kneeling statue of his parents.
Wang Wenti had mixed feelings for a while, and he said a paragraph with tears, what is the content of this paragraph? Why did Wang Jing turn to the Japanese before he was healthy? How did his children fare after fleeing the mainland?
Wang Jingwei in swing
The reason why Wang Jingwei was able to become a traitor has a lot to do with his experience from childhood that made him develop a weak character, Wang Jingwei was born in a family of eunuchs in Shanyin, Zhejiang, his grandfather was a lifter, but his father repeatedly failed, and could only do some low-paid work to make a living.
Wang Jingwei's father not only had a bad career, his first wife also died early, leaving him with a difficult life with his children, not willing to be lonely, he married his second wife when he was very old, the old man and young wife gave birth to several children, Wang Jingwei is the youngest child in the family, the family lives in poverty, Wang Jingwei grew up in a dark and narrow house.
Growing up in such a cramped environment made Wang Jingwei very cowardly from an early age, especially when he was 13 years old, his parents died one after another, and Wang Jingwei had to send people to live on the family of his half-brother, which made his personality more introverted.
When Wang Jingwei was still full of spirits in his youth, he took the imperial examination as an adult and became a show talent with the good results of the first place in the local area, and a year later he was able to go to Japan to study at public expense, and met Mr. Sun here and joined the League.
Wang Jingwei was appreciated by Mr. Sun by virtue of his talent, and after that, he and Mr. Sun followed him, and during his work in Nanyang, he met Chen Bijun, the daughter of the overseas Chinese, and the two fell in love at first sight and soon became a good couple.
In order to completely overthrow the rule of the Qing government, Wang Jingwei also participated in the assassination of the regent, but in the process of assassination, he unfortunately exposed his whereabouts and was arrested by the Qing soldiers and imprisoned.
At this time, the revolutionary wave across the country continued to rise, and the next year the Xinhai Revolution broke out, Wang Jingwei's ability was favored by Yuan Shikai, who was exempted from the death penalty and was quickly rescued by Yuan Shikai, and has been running north and south since then, coordinating the contradictions between Yuan Shikai and Mr. Sun.
Because Wang Jingwei hovered between the two sides, his position was not clear, and he repeatedly transcended politics and wandered between China and France in the name of study and revolutionary failure, which showed Wang Jingwei's fear and escape from failure.
Fortunately, Yuan Shikai died earlier, and Wang Jingwei was able to firmly side with Mr. Sun again, and in the years that followed, Wang Jingwei participated in many important revolutionary movements, laying the foundation for his position in Mr. Sun's heart and within the Kuomintang.
When Mr. Sun was critically ill, he pointed out that Wang Jingwei had drawn up a will for him, and Wang Jingwei's position in the Kuomintang had reached its peak, but he did not make good use of his power, but was driven to the field by Chiang Kai-shek, who was momentarily powerful, and Wang Jingwei had to resign from his post in the Kuomintang and go to France again to heal his wounds.
The following year, Wang Jingwei returned to China as chairman of the Wuhan National Government, and when Chiang Kai-shek launched the "April 12" coup to betray the revolution, Wang Jingwei still fought against him, but he immediately launched the "July 15" coup d'état and merged with Chiang Kai-shek, and at the end of the year, Wang Jingwei once again fled to France with his wife because of the defeat in the political struggle.
Wang Jingwei's traitorous road
In 1931, the Japanese Kou launched the "918" incident and searched for political puppets in the country, and Wang Jingwei soon appeared in front of them.
Wang Jingwei had a high prestige in the Kuomintang, and the Japanese took advantage of Wang Jingwei's appointment as president of the Executive Yuan to launch the Songhu War in Shanghai, the 19th Route Army of the Nationalist Army resisted bravely, and the anti-Japanese enthusiasm throughout the country was also ignited, but Wang Jingwei changed the course of history at a critical moment.
The news of the fiasco of the Shanghai army reached Wang Jingwei's ears, and even though the soldiers and civilians were united in their hearts, Wang Jingwei did not see the people's enthusiasm for resisting the war, and he was overwhelmed by the fear of Japan, and he only cared about peace talks with the Japanese and Koukou, begging for the war to stop.
Chiang Kai-shek hoped that the purpose of the armistice was very simple, and the focus of his work was still on suppressing the Communist Party; for this reason, he had carried out many "encirclement and suppression" campaigns, which had left the Red Army breathless.
Wang Jingwei, on the other hand, was completely subjugated by the power of the Japanese Kou, and his series of traitorous acts proved that the Japanese Kou analyzed him accurately, and he was easily overwhelmed by strong enemies.
In the following years, Wang Jingwei constantly suppressed the anti-Japanese officers in various places, gradually ceded sovereignty to the Japanese, and in order to gain the trust of the Japanese, his hands were stained with the blood of patriots and revolutionaries.
Wang Jingwei fantasized that his repeated concessions would satisfy the Japanese and no longer engage in aggression, but he did not expect that the history of the step-by-step demise of the Qing Dynasty decades ago was staged in his hands.
During this period, Wang Jingwei's traitorous behavior was outraged by the people, and he was assassinated several times, in one assassination operation, he was shot three times in the body, and the bullets that hit the spine could not be removed, and the doctor concluded that he would not live for ten years.
Sins that cannot be relieved
After the fall of the puppet government, Wang Jingwei fled to Japan, and sure enough, he died of a vicious disease caused by a gunshot wound in 1949, his wife Chen Bijun was punished by a long prison sentence for following him as a traitor, and died in prison in 1959, their five children fled the mainland early, and the second son, Wang Wenti, was exiled to Hong Kong.
Wang Wenti was born earlier, when his father formed the Japanese puppet government, he served in it, so in the 1946 trial, he was sentenced to rape as an adult, because he was still very young and did not do anything harmful to nature, so he was sentenced to only one year.
Due to his good attitude towards reform, Wang Wenti escaped punishment and did not experience prison, and he went to Hong Kong to settle down during his probation.
Wang Wenti hid his name and did not dare to claim that he was Wang Jingwei's son, so his life was more difficult, but he still entered the University of Hong Kong by his own efforts and became a famous bridge builder in the local area.
In the name of the son of a traitor, Wang Wenti never dared to return to the mainland until 2005, when he was nearly 80 years old, he returned to his homeland and took the opportunity of academic exchanges to worship his parents.
A group of people followed Wang Wenti to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, where there are the tombs of his parents, but the first thing Wang Wenti saw was the kneeling statues of his parents, they knelt in front of the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum for a long time to represent eternal sins.
After a long silence, Wang Wenti finally spoke, and he said with tears in his eyes that if he did something wrong, he would be punished.
Although seeing his parents kneeling all the time, Wang Wenti's heart was not a taste, but he also knew that his parents' sins were deep, which was an unavoidable fact, and their sins could never be let go of by the people of the whole country.
