leads the sword quickly and lives up to the young head. Wang Jingwei and Chen Gongbo also had lofty ambitions when they were young. However, two people who already had quite a high status, when foreigners invaded, they chose to turn their backs to the enemy and sell themselves to treason. It even ranked first among the top ten traitors of the Republic of China, and was despised, leaving a permanent infamy in the history of youth. It is really embarrassing. Today, I will talk about Chen Gongbo, who ranked second among the top ten traitors of the Republic of China.
Chen Gongbo was born on October 19, 1892. He was born in Ruyuan County, Guangdong and sent to Nanhai, Guangdong. He received traditional sinology education since he was a child. However, his teacher was Liang Xuetao, who claimed to be a "Kang Liang Chuan". When explaining the classics and history, he could not help mentioning the reform reform and the ideas of bourgeois reformism. Let Chen Gongbo come into contact with some new ideas from time to time. Although he does not like the Four Books and Five Classics very much, he has a soft spot for old novels and historical books.
read " The Three Kingdoms" to confirm the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and read " " in order to confirm the "Han Dynasty", "The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasty" Wait. It can be said that he has basically read ancient Chinese history books, but unfortunately, the history books and family studies did not teach him the national solar terms that he should have. In 1917, after graduating from Guangzhou College of Law and Politics, Chen Gongbo was admitted to the Peking University philosophy department. The principal happened to be Cai Yuanpei. With the gathering of famous teachers from all sides, various ideas spread widely, and Chen Gongbo was also deeply influenced.
But his new ideas at the time were extremely uncertain, and he was eager to display his talents and ambitions, and he set foot on the political stage early. The first contact was Marxism, active propaganda and the establishment of a branch,Also participated in a major in 1921 (the cruise ship did not participate). After this meeting, Chen Gongbo's enthusiasm dropped sharply. The reason was that there were differences in discussing goals and strategies at this stage. This was a normal thing at first, but he thought that the two factions were fighting each other, which caused doubt and confusion.
later openly supported Chen Jiongming. In 1922, Chen Gongbo broke with the organization and went to to study at of Columbia University in the United States. After returning to China three years later, at the invitation of Liao Zhongkai , he once again stepped onto the political stage. As soon as Chen Gongbo entered his position, he continued to improve. In just a few months, he jumped from a newcomer to the core level. This is closely related to Wang Jingwei's support. This choice determined the path of his later rebellion. Chen Gongbo could not bear the pain caused by the interruption of the relationship with Wang and the embarrassment of being discriminated against in the Jiang family.
So, he left Chongqing with Wang Jingwei and became the second person among the top ten traitors. From 1938 to 1945, Chen Gongbo actively promoted the so-called goodwill and peace, and he had no guilt for traitors. Even if the countless crimes he committed have crippled countless siblings and provided intelligence to help the abuser. On August 25, 1945, he tried to escape to Kyoto, Japan, but how did the Chinese people let him go for the evil things he did. On October 3, Chen Gongbo was escorted back to China and thrown into Suzhou Prison.
wrote a confession of ten thousand words eloquently, expressing his heart for the dead Wang Jingwei, and defending himself. On April 5, 1946, at the traditional Chinese sacrificial festival, Chen Gongbo was taken to court for a public trial. The argument was indisputable, and the scolding from the crowd was endless. Prosecutor Han Tao took 50 minutes to read the indictment against him. List the ten major crimes, any of which is life imprisonment or death sentence, so Chen Gongbo was sentenced to death on April 12.
after the trial from the court,He knew that he had no hope in his life, and perhaps he had regrets at this time. But that didn't matter anymore. On June 3, 1946, Chen Gongbo was sent to the execution ground of the Third Jiangsu Prison in Lionkou, Suzhou. Before his sentence, he was asked whether he wanted to leave a last word in accordance with the rules. Chen Gongbo only shook his head. After the sentence was pronounced, he had planned to write an absolute letter to Lao Jiang, but he didn't finish it on the day of his sentence for some reason.
Judge planned to give him an hour to write this letter, but Chen Gongbo refused, only asking to change his clothes and go on the road. When he arrived at the execution ground, he asked who executed the shooting. He hoped that he would not suffer too much pain before he died. So I shook hands with the execution bailiff and thanked him: Please help me, please do me a little cleaner. With a shot, this Wang Puppet's second traitor ended his shameful life.
What he has done before and what he has suffered, he should pay for his sins, and death is what he deserves. After Chen Gongbo's death, his wife was not sanctioned because he did not obviously treason against the enemy, so he took his two children to the United States. Like Wang Jingwei's descendants, Chen Gongbo's two sons also felt unable to lift their heads because of their father's behavior. After his eldest son Chen Qian made some achievements in his career, he donated money to the country in various ways, hoping to make up for one or two by supporting industrial development.
