The revolutionary road is long. In this journey full of blood and tears, too many revolutionaries have led by and given everything.
In 2010, a reporter interviewed a former CCP special science intelligence officer. Her name was Li Yun. He secretly performed many tasks as an intelligence officer in the CCP special science.
Later generations Li Yun
After the founding of New China, she was able to retire successfully, and the top secret tasks she had performed were all sunk in the ocean of time, no one knew about it.
It was not until a reporter came to interview that she said: " If it weren't for 1988, a central leader told me that the confidentiality period for Mao Anying's incident that happened back then had passed, and I would probably have broken these secrets in my stomach and took them to see Marx. "
What exactly did Mao Anying's incident mean? What role does this old man play in it?
Let us turn the clock back eighty years ago and see what kind of legendary story this old man named Li Yun has.
1. The seeds of revolution
11 China in 1915 was full of holes. It was the early days of the Republic of China, and it was in war and the country's rule was extremely chaotic. Yuan Shikai, the ruler at that time, also tried to restore the imperial system, which caused a large storm.
Yuan Shikai betrayed China's interests
Internal chaos and external crises were everywhere. Western powers set up concessions in our country and occupied our territory in a large number of ways. Japan also took advantage of the situation and proposed to our country the "Twenty-one" of losing power and humiliating the country, in an attempt to destroy China.
Li Yun was born in Shanghai in such a turbulent era in 1915.
In the early Ming Dynasty, Shanghai was so difficult for people to live in, and Li Yun and his family were no exception.
Li Yun's father came from a scholarly family and wrote well. His ancestors in his family have been scholars for generations, but this was useless in that war-torn era.
My father could only go to the clothes store to do work in exchange for a meager salary to subsidize the family income.
But even so, the father attached great importance to the education of his children. In order to enable the children to go to school, the father sent Li Yun to the No. 1 Primary School of the Seven County Shanghai Association of Shaoxing, despite the opposition from the family.
Shaoxing Shanghai Association was one of the most influential fellows organizations in Shanghai at that time. Many of the members of the Association were business people.
Li Yun
They jointly invested to open this primary school.
At that time, this primary school had very strong educational strength.
Not only that, many of the members of the Association are revolutionaries, and most of the teachers in the school are Communists. In such an environment, the little Li Yun has long been influenced by the revolution.
1929, Li Yun had just entered the sixth grade, but at this time she was already a member of the Communist Youth League. The invasion of the great powers and the insults suffered by the Chinese people all left a deep impression in her childhood memories.
Chinese people in the concession are often insulted. Even at the entrance of the Bund Park, there is a sign erected on it, saying " Chinese and dogs are not allowed to enter ", which is a great shame for every Chinese.
Li Yun, who was only fourteen years old at the time, had already secretly swore in his heart that he would become a staunch revolutionary and strive for the revolutionary cause for life.
After graduating from the bustling Shanghai
, Li Yun joined the Zhabei Silk Factory Federation Trade Union to work as a youth worker. Although she is not very old, she is very clever.
Not long after working, Li Yun participated in the "Party Member Study Class" of the Federation of Trade Unions of the Silk Factory and became a glorious Communist Party member.
While working at Zhabei Silk Factory, Li Yun also participated in a "flying rally". She was responsible for passing the party information out at that time, so she tied the information to her waist. When she arrived at the place, she secretly passed the information to the comrades hidden in the crowd.
In order to prevent being tracked, after Li Yun passed the information, he spread the leaflets prepared in advance, and then the other comrades shouted together: " defeated imperialism! Long live the Communist Party! ". After scattering the leaflets, everyone dispersed like birds and beasts, and even if the police came, they could not catch anyone.
Recalling this experience when he was young, Li Yun said: " When studying at the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions, the leaders told us that as a qualified Communist Party member, we must adhere to three bottom lines. One is to strictly keep the secrets of the Party, the other is to always firmly stand on our own position, and the third is to resolutely obey the Party's distribution in any case. "
Li Yun during the revolutionary period also ran through Li Yun's revolutionary career and regarded it as the criterion that he adhered to throughout his life.
, especially after entering the Central Special Branch, Li Yun performed many secret tasks. These tasks were top secrets at the time, and they were slowly lifted after the founding of New China, which was known to the world.
let us see the ups and downs of this legendary woman's revolutionary career.
2. Secret Agent
On January 20, 1924, the First National Congress of the Kuomintang was held in Guangdong. The meeting reorganized the Kuomintang organization, reinterpreted the "Three Principles of the People", formed major policies such as "alliance between Russia, alliance with the Communist Party, and assistance to poor peasants", and reached the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
With the cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Northern Expedition started quickly and achieved great victory.
But the good times did not last long. In 1925, with the death of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the Kuomintang internal personnel were reshuffled, and the right-wing forces quickly occupied the high point.
First National Congress of the Kuomintang
Chiang Kai-shek joined forces with Wang Jingwei to squeeze out Hu Hanmin, the then National Government's military minister Xu Chongzhi from the center of power. In addition, Liao Zhongkai, a veteran of the Kuomintang, was assassinated, and Chiang Kai-shek completely lost his obstacles and ascended the throne of commander-in-chief of the National Revolutionary Army.
After Chiang Kai-shek controlled the Kuomintang, the weather vane changed completely. He began to try his best to crack down on the people of the Communist Party and revolutionary forces, and the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party fell apart.
1927, Chiang Kai-shek launched the April 12th coup and began to massacre revolutionaries throughout the society, killing all the people of the Communist Party.
Not only that, it also joined forces with warlords and reactionaries from all over the country to suppress and massacre communists.
For a moment, everyone is in danger.
At that time, our party did not expect Chiang Kai-shek would openly betray his cooperation with our party, which not only destroyed Mr. Sun Yat-sen's efforts, but also caused great losses to our party.
Chiang Kai-shek
Since there was no complete intelligence system in the organization at that time, many news could not be conveyed in time, and many revolutionaries were killed without any precautions.
There are also some revolutionaries who failed to transfer smoothly because the news was not conveyed in time, and eventually died under the massacre of the reactionaries.
This coup caused our party to pay a heavy price. After the incident, the leaders of the Party Central Committee learned from their mistakes and learned from the lessons of this matter.
In order to obtain enemy intelligence information in a timely manner and to enable the information to be transmitted more secretly and quickly, the Party Central Committee decided to establish a closely-organized intelligence agency and a complete intelligence transmission network within the party so that it can understand the enemy's movements as soon as possible.
So, Premier Zhou took the lead in establishing " Central Special Special Correspondence ", and its headquarters was established in Shanghai.
Central Special Core
After the establishment of the institution, it is urgently necessary to select personnel.
Since the Central Special Branch is mainly responsible for intelligence work, most personnel have to lurk on the front line for a long time. This is not an easy job and is extremely dangerous.
Therefore, when selecting personnel, the primary condition of the Central Special Branch is highly meticulous thinking, extremely high psychological quality, and firm revolutionary will.
1932, Li Yun, who was only 17 years old, was already an "old revolutionary". Due to her outstanding work ability, she was successfully selected and became a new member of the Central Special Section. Not long after entering the Central Special Section, Li Yun received an order from his superiors to perform a special task and find a pair of brothers.
Mao brothers
These two brothers are Mao Anying and Mao Anying , but for the sake of safety, Li Yun and the others were not told at that time that the true identities of these two children were only said to be orphans of the martyrs and they had to be retrieved at all costs.
So why did the two brothers of the Mao family suddenly disappear on the streets of Shanghai? Is there any hidden truth behind this?
3. The two brothers of the Mao family disappeared
In 1930, at the suggestion of Premier Zhou, Dong Jianwu came forward as a pastor and jointly founded the " Datong Kindergarten " with the Chinese Revolutionary Mutual Aid Association to achieve the intention of world harmony. I hope that the light of communism can illuminate every corner of the world.
Datong Kindergarten mainly takes in some orphans of martyrs, as well as the children of revolutionaries who are busy for the revolution and have no time to take care of their children.
On November 14 of the same year, Yang Kaihui was unfortunately arrested in Changsha and was eventually executed bravely, leaving behind three childish children, namely 8-year-old Mao Anying, 6-year-old Mao Anying and 3-year-old Mao Anying.
Mao brothers and Yang Kaihui
At that time, Hunan was at the forefront of the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. As Mao Zedong's blood, these three children would cause many dangers to continue to stay here.
In order to protect these three children, Mao Zedong's younger brother Mao Zemin asked his superiors for instructions, hoping to take these three children away from Hunan and take them to Shanghai for care. At the same time, he wrote a letter to Yang Kaihui's family in Hunan to inform him of the matter.
After approval, Mao Zemin took these three children from Hunan to Shanghai and settled them in Datong Kindergarten.
The three brothers lived here temporarily. The nursery staff here are all families of party cadres. Everyone can rest assured that they are here to take care of these children.
Datong Kindergarten former site
But the good times didn't last long. Less than a year later, the young Mao Anyong suddenly suffered from a serious illness. The nurseryman hurriedly sent him to the hospital, but in the end he died because his condition was too dangerous and the rescue was ineffective.
No one expected that this was just the beginning, and bad news came one after another.
In April 1931, Gu Shunzhang was arrested in Hankou. He is one of the core figures of the Central Special Section and holds many secrets of our party's underground work.
After being arrested, Gu Shunzhang immediately rebelled and revealed many secrets to the Kuomintang reactionaries, which directly led to a devastating blow to our party's underground work in Shanghai, and even Datong Kindergarten was not spared.
Gu Shunzhang
In order to protect these children, the organization conducted an emergency transfer of the children in Datong Kindergarten.
All the children were sent to the homes of revolutionaries to take care of each other, while the brothers Mao Anying and Mao Anying were transferred to the homes of Huang Huiguang .
Huang Huiguang is Dong Jianwu's ex-wife, but the two still maintain a revolutionary friendship.
Dong Jianwu sent the two brothers of the Mao family to Huang Huiguang's home, considering that the two brothers of the Mao family could be properly placed here, and he often came to visit him in case of accidents.
But for safety reasons, Dong Jianwu did not tell Huang Huiguang that the two brothers were Mao Zedong's children, but only said that they were orphans of comrades and asked her to take good care of them.
At the beginning, Huang Huiguang took good care of his two children, but as time went by, and Dong Jianwu left Shanghai due to work reasons, Huang Huiguang had to take care of six children in the family alone, which was extremely stressful.
Dong Jianwu
In that era, it was already difficult to survive, not to mention that a woman had to live with six children, and her monthly living expenses were very tight.
In such a difficult living environment, Huang Huiguang is also under great pressure. On the one hand, he has to take care of his children, and on the other hand, he has to take care of his comrades' children, and his life is very hard.
In October 1935, Mao Anying and Mao Anying secretly slipped out of their home while Huang Hui was sleeping soundly and disappeared on the streets of Shanghai.
4. After the task
After the Mao family disappeared, Huang Huiguang suddenly panicked. Although this was not her own child, she was entrusted by someone after all. Now that the child is lost, she was also anxious, so she immediately told Dong Jianwu, who was far away, and asked him to think of a solution.
Huang Huiguang
Dong Jianwu knew that the child was lost and felt something was wrong. Others didn't know who these two children were, but he knew it.
Chairman Mao had become the core leader of the Red Army at this time. Mao Anying and Mao Anying, as his children, will inevitably encounter unexpected problems once the Kuomintang reactionaries learn about their whereabouts.
The most urgent task is to immediately find the whereabouts of the two brothers of the Mao family.
But how to find it in the vast crowd?
cannot make a big fuss at this time, especially the enemy spies hidden in the dark know that they are looking for someone.
After repeated thoughts, Dong Jianwu found Premier Zhou and discussed with him that the Central Special Section would be responsible for this matter, so that the intelligence officers could secretly find the two brothers of the Mao family.
Zhou Enlai
After receiving the consent of Premier Zhou, Dong Jianwu immediately organized the Central Special Forces intelligence personnel to carry out an emergency search mission.
Li Yun, who had just finished an important task, also received a notice. Although Li Yun was just twenty years old at this time, he had also performed many tasks and was an experienced intelligence officer. After receiving the command, Li Yun immediately rushed back to Shanghai to meet with everyone.
organization asked them to find two boys, the older one was 13 years old and the younger one was 11 years old. The two were brothers from Hunan, surnamed Mao, and were orphans of martyrs. They were accidentally lost and they had to be retrieved at all costs.
Because Li Yun and the others didn't know what the two brothers looked like at that time, they only had one portrait, and the social environment in Shanghai was mixed, so they could not look for it with great fanfare.
It is so difficult to find two inconspicuous children in the vast crowd.
Shanghai Street
Information personnel analyzed all the places they might appear at the beginning.
The two brothers are young and have no money on them, so they are all problems with clothing and food, so they are very likely to appear in places where labor forces gather.
For three months, everyone searched all the opera troupes, docks, and factories employed child labor in Shanghai. They even looked for welfare homes, but they still did not find the two brothers.
Li Yun also pointed out that the two children are not old and thin, with many homeless people in the city center. They may not be able to grab food here and will be bullied. Will they go to the suburbs of Shanghai? The idea of
was affirmed by the person in charge of the operation. After discussion, everyone divided a place. The person in charge emphasized: "Everyone should carefully search in the area where they are responsible for, and even if they dig three feet into the ground, they should find the person.”
Li Yun was just assigned to a place in the suburbs, so she disguised herself as a beggar and mingled into the team of homeless people, searching near the temple that specializes in distributing relief food in the suburbs.
But for more than two months, Li Yun still couldn't find the two brothers.
Just as she was about to look for another place, she suddenly saw two big and small faces outside the City God Temple. A boy begging on the roadside.
Based on the principle of not missing out, Li Yun came up to ask these two brothers, but the two may have been wandering for a long time and were very wary of strangers, and never said a word.
Little beggar on the streets of Shanghai
But the more Li Yun looked at these two people, the more he felt that they were very similar to the portrait. So she asked tentatively: " Are you surnamed Mao, you came from Hunan? ”
Hearing this sentence, the two children suddenly raised their heads and stared at her with wide eyes. Li Yun thought to himself: “ is right, it’s them. ”
In order to make the two children trust themselves more, Li Yun told them: " I am your parents' colleague. You two lost, and everyone is in a hurry and have been looking for you. ”
. I am afraid that the two children will not believe it, Li Yun also brought out Dong Jianwu, " Uncle Dong Jianwu, do you know you? It was the uncle with black hair and thick eyebrows. He asked me to come to you. ”
Mao Anying and Mao Anying
Hearing this name, the two children finally gradually let go of their guard.
Li Yun looked at them in rags and knew that in the past six months, the two brothers suffered a lot and hurriedly took them back. On the way, they bought osmanthus cakes for the two brothers and asked them to fill their stomachs first.
After Li Yun took his two children back to the Central Special Branch station in Shanghai, he immediately notified his colleagues that he had found them and sent a telegram to Dong Jianwu telling him that the child had been brought back.
Dong Jianwu, who received the message, rushed back to Shanghai overnight. After seeing the two, he immediately recognized them and confirmed that these two were Mao Anying and Mao Anying. His heart was finally relieved.
Later, due to the unstable domestic political environment at that time, Dong Jianwu went through Zhang Xueliang's relationship through Zhang Xueliang's sake due to the unstable domestic political environment at that time. , sent the two brothers of the Mao family to study in the Soviet Union.
Dong Jianwu
After the incident, all those involved in the operation signed a confidentiality agreement, and the leaders of the Central Special Section also repeatedly stated that this matter must be kept a secret and must not be circulated.
Until the founding of New China, Li Yun saw a photo of Chairman Mao, Mao Anying and Mao Anying in the newspaper, and realized that the two children were actually Chairman Mao’s son.
But she has been buried in her heart and has never revealed it to anyone.
In 1988, Li Yun, who was 73 years old, retired at home, and an old leader of the Central Special Branch came to visit her.
talked about this during a chat, and the old leader said: " The confidentiality period between the two brothers Mao Anying and Mao Anying had passed, and now it can be said. ”
Old Man Li Yun
Li Yun smiled and said, " I plan to see Marx with these secrets. ”
Later, when Li Yun's children learned that she had saved Chairman Mao's child, they were also extremely shocked.
The incident gradually spread afterwards. Mao Anying's son Mao Xinyu also came to visit Li Yun specifically, condolences and express gratitude to her.
In 2013, Li Yun died of illness at the East China Hospital in Shanghai at the age of 93.
Recalling the legendary life of this old man, she held the fire in the country's crisis, burned herself for the construction of the New China with her flesh and blood, and saw China reborn in the ashes in her twilight years. I think there is no regret.
