In many film and television works about spy warfare, the ending of many of our party's underground workers is often to die heroically after being exposed, or continue to lurk and remain incognito. As an audience, we can't help but look forward to a happy ending for those underground workers who walk on the blade, because they are worth it.
In reality, there was a high-ranking red spy who held a high position in the Kuomintang army and provided a lot of important information for our army in the War of Liberation. In peacetime, he retired with his whole body, resumed his status as a member of the Communist Party, enjoyed the rank of deputy corps commander, and died at the age of 90. He is Guo Rugui, who once served as the director of the Third Department of the War Department of the Ministry of National Defense of the Kuomintang.
The greatest difficulty for spy workers is not only to face danger at any time, but also to have a strong psychological quality. People are prone to change with the environment, so spies must maintain a sober self on the one hand, and on the other hand, they must be in the company of the top echelons of the Kuomintang who are constantly fighting with factions and putting self-interest first.
has been lurking in such a situation for a long time, Guo Rugui still does not change her original intention, and she has seen too much of the ugly face behind "loyalty to the party-state". However, according to Guo Rugui's memories in his later years, he has been lurking in the top echelons of the national army for many years, and most of the words and deeds of the people around him are disdainful, and there are only two generals of the national army who he really admires.
One of them is Fu Zuoyi, a famous anti-Japanese general and the founder of the victory of Bailing Temple.
On November 19, 1948, Chairman Mao sent a telegram to Peng Zexiang in Beiping in the name of Nie Rongzhen: "Since Mr. XX is interested in the cause of peace, I hope to send a reliable representative to Shijiazhuang to make the first step of contact, and I sincerely convey it to Mr. XX." The certain gentleman mentioned by Chairman Mao is Fu Zuoyi. Soon after, Fu Zuoyi sent representatives to hold peace talks with our party on the liberation of Beiping.
When the Liaoshen Campaign was in full swing, Chiang Kai-shek went to Beiping to attend an operational meeting. In Shanghai, Chiang Ching-kuo's "Tiger Fighting" action touched the interests of Yangzi Company and Kong Lingkan, and Soong Meiling persuaded Chiang Ching-kuo to no avail, and called Chiang Kai-shek back to Shanghai with a phone call. Fu Zuoyi, who was sitting in Beiping, said to Du Yuming: "If you want a beauty, you don't want a country, what else do we sell him for!" ”
On December 23, 1948, Jiang Weiguo came to Fu Zuoyi with a handwritten letter from Chiang Kai-shek, at this time Chiang Kai-shek already knew about Fu Zuoyi's negotiations with the Communist Party, so he said in the letter that the Xi'an Incident had become a Communist Party, and the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was a great lesson in his life.
Chiang Weiguo also vigorously lobbied that as long as Fu Zuoyi abandoned Beiping and retreated to Jiangnan, Chiang Kai-shek would appoint him as the military and political chief of South China, and his troops would be better aided by the American army.
Soon after, the U.S. military also sent people to Beiping to win over Fu Zuoyi, saying that they would set aside Chiang Kai-shek and support Fu Zuoyi alone. Fu Zuoyi said angrily: "I am a Chinese, and I believe that the Chinese can solve our own affairs in China without the interference of outsiders." ”
Immediately after the US representative left, Fu Zuoyi sent a telegram to Chairman Mao, explaining that he had no political selfish motives for the peace talks and proposing that the two sides immediately stop military confrontation.
In January 1949, the People's Liberation Army occupied Nanyuan Airport, and soon after, Fu Zuoyi twice sent representatives to negotiate with the leaders of our army in Pingjin. On January 21, Fu Zuoyi signed an agreement on the peaceful liberation of Beiping, then drafted the text of the uprising, and led the Kuomintang troops to evacuate Beiping. On January 31, Beiping was peacefully liberated.
Because Fu Zuoyi refused to obey Chiang Kai-shek's dispatch, and was not swayed by the temptation of the United States, the liberation of Beiping was not baptized by artillery fire, the people were safe, and the ancient buildings were intact.
In his later years, when Guo Rugui talked about these "party-state colleagues", he admired Fu Zuoyi very much, believing that he was a heroic figure in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and he was well aware of the righteousness and ability to bend and stretch in the War of Liberation.
Another person that Guo Rugui admires is Zhang Zhizhong. He was the only Kuomintang general who had not fought against the Communist Party after the second Kuomintang-Communist cooperation.
After the incident in southern Anhui, he dared to write to Chiang Kai-shek, demanding that internal friction be stopped and the Communist Party should resist Japan.
Zhang Zhizhong's confidential secretary Yu Zhanbang once commented on him: "He is a complex character full of contradictions." His main contradictions are: on the one hand, he has a long-term close relationship with the CCP, and on the other hand, he is inseparable from Chiang Kai-shek. Politically, they have their own subjective aspirations and practices, but they cannot shake off the shackles of the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang. ”
Because Zhang Zhizhong was obedient to Chiang Kai-shek, some people within the Kuomintang insulted him as Chiang's "maid under the stove". Guo Rugui, who was in the top echelons of the Kuomintang, did not admire Zhang Zhizhong at that time, but soon after, he developed admiration for Zhang Zhizhong.
In 1947, Zhang Zhizhong went to Lanzhou from Xinjiang and was assigned some tasks by Chiang Kai-shek to suppress the Communist Party.
In 1948, Chiang Kai-shek wanted to change the name of the Northwest Xingyuan to the Pacification Office, but Zhang Zhizhong was the first to oppose it. He knew that the so-called appeasement office was actually the "Northwest Suppression of the Communist Command," so Zhang Zhizhong asked Chiang Kai-shek to go abroad. Chiang Kai-shek, who was helpless, had no choice but to change the name of the Pacification Office, the Northwest Military and Political Chief's Office.
In June, Jiang went to Xi'an to interview Zhang Zhizhong. Zhang Zhizhong once again advised Chiang to stop the civil war, and said: "If this continues, our party must be finished." Now there is no strength to be seen, because everyone has forgotten the goal of struggle, and only cares about fighting for power and profit, and getting promoted and making a fortune. Jiang turned a deaf ear. Zhang Zhizhong later said to the people around him in frustration: "My 25 years of devotion to Chiang have been in vain. ”
At the beginning of 1949, Zhang Zhizhong, as the chief representative of the Kuomintang in the peace talks, went to Peiping to negotiate with the representatives of our party and drew up the relevant articles on domestic peace. Soon after, however, the Kuomintang authorities completely rejected the results of the peace talks, and Zhang Zhizhong, as the chief representative of the Kuomintang army, was still embarrassed to hope for further peace talks in Beijing.
Subsequently, Zhang Zhizhong stayed in Beiping after being retained by our party, and then held a leading position in the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in New China.
Guo Rugui admired Zhang Zhizhong because he was one of the few high-level opponents of the civil war in the high-level of the national army, and he did not stand on the opposite side of our party and the people in the war of liberation.
Most people in the Kuomintang pledged allegiance to Chiang Kai-shek for personal gain, while Zhang Zhizhong's allegiance was a soldier's admiration for the leader. But when Chiang Kai-shek's political views ran counter to national interests, Zhang Zhizhong chose the overall situation of the country.
As a red spy, Guo Rugui saw a lot of Allah and false beliefs in his revolutionary career, and he could distinguish "whether it was a man or a ghost". We have reason to believe that his political vision.
Fu Zuoyi and Zhang Zhizhong both contributed to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the peaceful reunification of the motherland, and they stood beside the Communist Party and still served the country loyally.
