Foreword
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War , Gu Zhengwen's life was full of uncertainty, from abandoning his pen to joining the Communist Party, to rebelling and becoming a Kuomintang agent.
But he is most famous for his ruthlessness, so many people call him the "Living King of Hell". When someone asked him about his killing experience, he said calmly, "There is no difference between killing people and killing pigs."
Even Mao Renfeng was "ashamed" of his murderous methods and once said to him, "You are crueler than me!"
When Gu Zhengwen learned that his son-in-law had cheated, the 81-year-old took out his personal belongings He was carrying a knife and stabbed his son-in-law twice in the buttocks. His ferocity and cunning have not diminished at all with age.
In his later years, Gu Zhengwen even regarded his crimes as his "proud works" and listed them in a book without any remorse.
Rebellion - Becoming a Kuomintang agent
After the September 18th Incident , Gu Zhengwen, like patriotic students, took to the streets and participated in the student patriotic movement.
In 1931, Gu Zhengwen secretly joined the party and served as secretary of the Peking Student Movement Committee. Later, he abandoned his writing and joined the army to join the Eighth Route Army and served as the captain of the army.
After a mission failed, Gu Zhengwen was arrested and imprisoned. Later, he rebelled against the revolution in prison and defected to the Kuomintang. He became a Kuomintang agent of the North China Military Command Bureau.
After that, Gu Zhengwen continued to study at Peking University and participated in the school's drama activities as usual.
During the drama performance, Gu Zhengwen met many Communist Party members. He hid his identity as a Kuomintang agent and interacted with them as a secret member of the Communist Party of China. After that, Gu Zhengwen disclosed the situation to Dai Li while participating in Communist Party activities, receiving training from the Communist Party, and learning communist theory.
After the July 7th Incident, Gu Zhengwen was captured by the Japanese army. He rebelled again without hesitation and became a Japanese spy under the command of Cao Changwu Sanying, the Japanese military police team. He disclosed information between the two parties to the Japanese army and killed his compatriots wantonly. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Gu Zhengwen resumed his identity as a Kuomintang agent.
By virtue of his status as a top student in the Chinese Department of Peking University, Gu Zhengwen was appreciated by Dai Li and served as the leader of the Peking Special Service Team.
However, according to relevant personnel, Gu Zhengwen’s academic qualifications are suspected of being fraudulent. Gu Zhengwen's real name was Guo Tongzhen. Guo Tongzhen's name was not recorded on the list of freshmen at Peking University at that time.
It can be seen from this that Gu Zhengwen is good at disguise, and he did not reveal his true situation.
After Gu Zhengwen came to work under Dai Li, in order to be promoted quickly, he revealed all the intelligence of the Communist Party. In order to win over the members of the drama club, Gu Zhengwen used flour as bait (at that time, Beiping was inflationary, and this bag of flour could lure many students), and reached cooperation with pro-communist students to obtain new information.
After the civil war broke out in 1946, Gu Zhengwen relied on information revealed from pro-communist students and went to the streets of Peiping to arrest a snitch and found the CCP's underground radio station in No. 4, Zhuzijie Yard, Peking.
At that time, Gu Zhengwen did not arrest the CCP personnel immediately, but sent people to follow them first. After several days of observation, Gu Zhengwen "seized the opportunity" and led his men to capture all the CCP members near the radio station.
In the same year, after Dai Li died, Zheng Jiemin took over the Military Command and became the director, with Mao Renfeng as the deputy director. Since Zheng Jiemin had other duties at the time and was not very concerned about it, the power of the Military Command Bureau was still in Mao Renfeng's hands.
When Mao Renfeng was sorting out Dai Li's belongings, he noticed Dai Li's diary during his lifetime, which recorded Dai Li's evaluation of Gu Zhengwen, "This man has read a lot and can be of great use."
Regarding Dai Li's talent and vision, Mao Renfeng Renfeng admires him very much. Therefore, he changed his view of Gu Zhengwen. After a long period of observation, Mao Renfeng became more sure of Gu Zhengwen's ability and entrusted him with an important task.
Murder - "Proud Work"
Xie Shiyan , Huangpu Military Academy graduated. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side. Under the introduction of Ye Jianying, he joined the Communist Party of China and became an underground party member.
After capturing Xie Shiyan, Gu Zhengwen was shocked by his calmness and determination. Gu Zhengwen has never been a person with firm positions and beliefs. When he saw that Xie Shiyan still refused to give in despite being forced to confess, he was instantly shocked by Xie Shiyan's sense of belief.
After experiencing severe torture, Xie Shiyan was in a dying and delirious state, but when he saw Gu Zhengwen coming in from the outside, he straightened his body tremblingly and looked at Gu Zhengwen resolutely.
Gu Zhengwen suddenly panicked after feeling the gaze. He sent someone to loosen Xie Shiyan's bonds and take him to the interrogation room.
Before starting the interrogation, Gu Zhengwen brought the brewed coffee in front of Xie Shiyan, faked a smile and said: "Usually I just drink coffee alone. Only when I meet someone I admire from the bottom of my heart will I drink with him. And you are one of the people I admire now. "
"If you are in the Communist Party, you must be an excellent intelligence agent." After hearing this, Gu Zhengwen smiled slightly and felt that the two of them were very compatible. He wanted to develop Xie Shiyan into a Kuomintang member, so he had a long dialogue with Xie Shiyan.
"It is useless to threaten me with life. For me, there is no difference between life and death. What I really care about is the victory of the revolution and the victory of the Communist Party of China."
"Are you so confident?" Gu After hearing this, Zhengwen looked scornfully, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip.
"Of course! I think you are very talented in intelligence. You must have obtained our intelligence from other aspects. Then you should know that my comrades have penetrated into all levels of your society. It is only a matter of time before we win." .I am not afraid of death. There will be many people, and they will still fight for the revolution until the day we win!"
"What a beautiful answer, I think I know the answer."
Gu Zhengwen heard Xie Shiyan's answer and stood up from his chair. He stood up and patted the table. Then, he straightened his clothes and walked out of the interrogation room.
"Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving a picture to illuminate history." In 1948, Xie Shiyan, who was only 36 years old, died heroically.
In addition to the Xie Shiyan incident, Gu Zhengwen also participated in multiple murder activities. He "well deserves" the title of "Living King of Hell".
In 1949, The Battle of Huaihai ended, and the only military force left by the Kuomintang in North China was the troops led by Fu Zuoyi. Under the powerful military offensive of the People's Liberation Army, Fu Zuoyi knew that he could not hold on and decided to surrender.
When Chiang Kai-shek learned of the fighting on the front line, he immediately sent military special agents to Peiping to try to persuade Fu Zuoyi to break out of the encirclement. However, the military reunification agent encountered strong opposition from Fu Zuoyi. During the conversation between the two parties, the military reunification agent saw Fu Zuoyi's true thoughts and immediately sent someone to bring the news that Fu Zuoyi was ready to surrender to Chiang Kai-shek.
After learning the news, Chiang Kai-shek sent Chiang Ching-kuo to do the final work to win over Fu Zuoyi. At this time, Gu Zhengwen thought that Fu Zuoyi was determined, so he suggested to Jiang Jingguo to use kidnapping to bring Fu Zuoyi back.
Considering the Kuomintang's external prestige, Jiang Jingguo believed that escorting Fu Zuoyi back to Nanjing would suppress the morale of the army and cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Gu Zhengwen's suggestion was rejected.
Although Gu Zhengwen held the attitude of "I would rather kill by mistake than let go", the final decision-making power still rested with Chiang Ching-kuo. So, he didn't say any more. But Gu Zhengwen has always held a grudge against this incident.
In 1993, when Gu Zhengwen met and chatted with Chiang Ching-kuo, he deliberately changed the topic to this matter.
Gu Zhengwen asked Chiang Ching-kuo why he did not follow his own advice.
Jiang Jingguo replied that when he came to North China, he saw Fu Zuoyi slumped on the chair exhausted, with his eyebrows furrowed and the cigarette in his hand in despair, and he suddenly felt mixed feelings in his heart.After Jiang Jingguo finished speaking, he did not answer Gu Zhengwen's question, but asked him, "If it were you at that time, what would you do after seeing this?"
Yes, Jiang Jingguo was moved by compassion. As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Jingguo continued: "Then I thought about it and realized that my father didn't ask me to do this. Therefore, I can't make the decision without permission." After hearing this, Gu Zhengwen understood the intention. But if he is given another chance, he will still stick to his decision. "It would be better to kill by mistake than let go."
However, these things are only a small part of Gu Zhengwen's crimes. The "Kashmir Princess" plane crash was the most "proud" achievement of his life.
In April 1955, Zhou Enlai represented China at the Asian-African Conference. According to the plan, Zhou Enlai was originally going to take the Air India charter flight "Kashmir Princess" with the delegation. Later, Zhou Enlai changed his plan and decided to set off from Kunming.
Four hours after the "Kashmir Princess" departed from Hong Kong, a time bomb exploded, killing all people on the plane.
Reports in recent years have said that this incident was carried out by Gu Zhengwen, under the instruction of Mao Renfeng, who arranged for the person in charge of Zhao Bincheng to do it. However, according to relevant personnel, this matter was an idea proposed by Zhao Bincheng after listening to Mao Renfeng's story, and then he went to Gu Zhengwen to discuss the implementation details of the incident. Gu Zhengwen was a participant in the incident, not the leader.
The truth behind the "Kashmir Princess" incident was that a Kuomintang agent used 500,000 Hong Kong dollars to bribe a cleaner on the plane and asked him to put a toothpaste-shaped time bomb into the wing of the aircraft gap, causing an explosion. Gu Zhengwen was responsible for taking the cleaner away from the airport safely.
After the plane exploded, people accused the Kuomintang agents of being brutal and vicious. But they are "proud of it." When asked by others, Gu Zhengwen smiled and said that this was something he was proud of. He even shamelessly asked the reporter: "Am I a bad person? Am I like this?" Are you the sinner of this incident?"
Gu Zhengwen's words made everyone around him Everyone felt very uncomfortable. They commented at the "Kashmir Princess" award ceremony: "This is not a glorious thing, but you can still talk about it without blushing and without a heartbeat. Even awarding an award?"
this matter, Even the subordinates involved couldn't stand it. Gu Zhengwen, however, was shameless and regarded this incident as an "achievement" in his life.
Later years - identified the spy, stabbed his son-in-law
On May 8, 1995, the popular singer Teresa Teng passed away in Thailand, but the cause of her death became a mystery. But the most controversial thing is not the real cause of her death, but her identity as a Taiwanese spy.
When Teresa Teng's body appeared in Taiwan, "spy" became a hot topic among media workers. This news comes from an article written by Gu Zhengwen. Among them, there is a description of Teresa Teng’s spy.
In 1968, Teresa Teng officially entered her singing career with her solo album "Fengyang Flower Drum". When she was fifteen years old, she was invited to participate in a charity performance at the Singapore Grand Theatre.
For some reasons, Teresa Teng could not leave Taiwan. As the performance got closer, Teresa Teng's mother Zhao Suying had no choice but to choose the "shortcut" arranged by the Kuomintang - "agreeing to provide intelligence to Taiwan." Situations like
were very common at the time. Many celebrities must sign this option when leaving Taiwan before they can leave the country. So this reason alone cannot explain anything at all.
However, Teresa Teng's funeral was the largest funeral since Chiang Kai-shek's death, which made many people begin to doubt the authenticity of the "spies". At Teresa Teng's funeral, many senior officials from Taiwan's political circles appeared to see her off.
Under such circumstances, more people began to recognize Teresa Teng's identity as a "spy". But some people say that as Teresa Teng was a generational singer at that time, with her fame, these are normal, and the identity of the spy cannot be determined just because of these.
Therefore, we do not know the answer to the truth about the identity of the "spy".
The only thing we can be sure of is: Gu Zhengwen is ruthless. His ferocity has not diminished with age.
Gu Zhengwen had four wives in his life. The sisters of the third wife were both members of the Communist Party. When they learned about Gu Zhengwen’s identity as a Kuomintang agent, they prepared to poison the water to kill Gu Zhengwen.
However, Gu Zhengwen was very cunning. He could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the water.
did not succeed this time, but instead made Gu Zhengwen suspicious of everyone around him. He expelled his wife and his nine children, and raised more than a dozen dogs to keep them company.
As for Gu Zhengwen's adopted daughter, she has no one she knows well except Gu Zhengwen, a relative, so no matter how Gu Zhengwen drives her away, she still stays at home. In the end, the adopted daughter gained Gu Zhengwen's trust with her long-term perseverance and meticulousness.
When Gu Zhengwen was 81 years old, his adopted daughter found Gu Zhengwen and cried to him that her husband had had an affair and had been cheating on her for many years, and had rebuilt a family with another man.
After Gu Zhengwen heard this, he angrily picked up the saber that had not been used for many years and found his son-in-law. When the son-in-law was not paying attention, he directly picked up the saber and stabbed the son-in-law in the buttocks twice.
Gu Zhengwen did not ask for any reason, nor did he give his son-in-law a chance to speak. After warning him a few words, he walked out of the room. Only the son-in-law was left standing there, covering his wounds. After learning Gu Zhengwen's methods, his son-in-law did not reveal the matter in order to avoid being hurt again.
's adopted daughter once commented on this incident: "He is a very cruel person. Without saying a word, he stabbed his son-in-law twice in the buttocks. This is not like what an eighty-year-old man would do."
2005 , 95-year-old Gu Zhengwen dictated the "White Terror Secret Files", recording the cases he participated in throughout his life. He told the world about his past crimes through this book, and also talked about it with great enthusiasm, saying that this was his "accomplishment" back then, and "he was proud of it."
Summary
In 2007, 97-year-old Gu Zhengwen passed away in Taipei Hospital.
From an underground member of the Communist Party to a Kuomintang agent, and then became a Japanese military agent again. After Japan was defeated, he resumed his identity as a Kuomintang agent. Gu Zhengwen's position kept changing back and forth, without a firm sense of belief and a clear cognitive direction.
After the release of "White Terror Secret Files", Gu Zhengwen's self-perceived "contribution" allowed the world to see Gu Zhengwen's unbearable side more clearly, making his past crimes appear in front of the world and remain in the world forever.
Regarding the story of "Gu Zhengwen, when he was 81 years old, he learned that his son-in-law had cheated on him and stabbed him twice in the butt, saying that there was no difference between killing people and killing pigs."
