The husband is Li Zhongzhe and his wife is named Teramoto Asoko. She came to China from Japan in 1937 and went to the Taihang Mountain Anti-Japanese Base in 1940. She is still missing.

In August 2007, Japan wrote to relevant departments in our country, hoping that China would help find the whereabouts of a Japanese couple.

This couple, whose husband is Li Zhongzhe and his wife is Teramoto Asoko. They came to China from Japan in 1937 and went to the Taihang Mountain Anti-Japanese Base in 1940. They are still missing.

Chinese staff were confused. What was going on?

technical expert

Due to the age of being too old, although many visits have been visited, no clues about Li Zhongzhe and his wife were found from the elderly living in Taihang Mountain Base.

staff had to turn to historical archives and memoirs.

Hard work pays off. In the vast sea of ​​old files, Li Zhongzhe’s relevant materials were finally found.

From November 21 to December 7, 1944, the first heroes' conference was held in Nanweiquan Village, Licheng County, Shanxi Province, in the Taihang Mountains Anti-Japanese Base Area.

, Xianzhe, who served as the secretary-general of the conference, wrote a "Biography of Comrade Li Guang, a technical expert."

is now excerpted from one of the original texts as follows:

"Name: Li Guang, original name Li Zhongzhe, forty-five years old, Korean, gendered man, graduated from the University of Chicago, USA.

Experience: Comrade Li Guang was born in Chicago, and his father was a rebellious against Japan A secret worker of colonial rule (according to Comrade Li Guang himself), returned to Japan in 1914, and was arrested by the Japanese authorities when he arrived in Yokohama. His mother was also an intellectual and served as a professor at the University of Chicago. After returning to Japan in 1914, she was still a university professor and a secret worker.

University of Technology, then went to the United States for the second time.

At the end of 1943, he was sent to The State Administration for Industry and Commerce of the Border Region is responsible for technical guidance. "

"A Brief Biography" then lists Li Guang's unique contribution to the creation of base areas":

The specimens have been sent to the conference exhibition hall. It was just when he was sick, but he did not care about everything, climbing mountains and crossing the ridges, and traveling across the 7th and 8th districts.

In addition, "Book of Changes" also has the title of "Simplified Biography" that has made many substitutes and overcome many difficulties, strengthened scientific management and rationalization systems for industrial management systems, and on cultivating technical talents and educating workers, and labor attitudes. , introduces Li Guang's exemplary deeds in detail.

In Taihang Mountain, where technical experts Li Guang naturally became a priceless treasure and received special attention from people.

However, just over a month later, something happened to Li Guang.

bizarrely disappeared

In early 1945, Li Guang, who was then the technical director of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of the Border Region, suddenly disappeared, and his whereabouts became a little-known historical mystery.

On January 16, 1945, Ai Xiufeng, the Commissioner of the Seventh Administrative Inspector of Taihang Mountain, and Zheng Zhaoxiang, deputy commissioner, issued a secret order, with the content of the telegram as follows:

" County Mayors of each county:

This is the telegram for Bianfu: Li Guang, technical director of the State Administration of Industry and Commerce , a Korean, suddenly fled on January 13th. Li Guang was very familiar with various industrial construction in my base area and had traveled all over the place. Li Guangzhi escaped, and there may be leaks, and the construction of my base area will suffer major losses. The border administration decided to decide , a reward of 20,000 yuan was offered for a wanted deal.

Li Guang went to our area seven in July last year. He was stubborn and short, red and black, with myopia, wearing glasses, and bronze clothes.When he ran away, he brought a flashlight and 200 yuan in Hebei. I hope that after receiving this secret order, I will not stop for a moment. I will immediately arrange the villages to mobilize militias and strictly inspect pedestrians day and night. If this person is found, he will be sent to the special office as a priority! "

On January 18, Commissioner Ai Xiufeng and Deputy Commissioner Zheng Zhaoxiang issued a notice to the county magistrates of each county in accordance with the instructions of the border area:

"County County Magistrates: Previously, the secret order of this office was issued. The border administration has received another notice when the order is wanted, and the order is revoked. It is expected that the person belongs to the main point. ”

However, there is nothing else to know about the result of wanting Li Guang.

Li Guang fled on January 13 and revoked the wanted order on January 18, which took only a few days. . In an environment where language barriers, inconvenient transportation, and day and night checks, although the Korean Li Guang carried 200 yuan of Hebei banknotes and a flashlight, it was difficult to escape successfully in the depths of the desolate and closed Taihang Mountains.

However, from then on, Li Guang's whereabouts are unknown and no one cares about it, and it is still a unsolved case.

Japanese information

Lee Jong-zhe, a Korean native, his wife is a Japanese woman, formerly known as Teramotoko, with a pseudonym Quan-he.

1937 Lee Jong-zhe and his wife came to China and joined North Korea in Guilin The third detachment of the Volunteer Team.

Then, the third detachment went to the Jiangxi battlefield to engage in publicity work on Japan. At the end of 1939, the third detachment of the Korean Volunteer Team set out from Chongqing to Luoyang and went north with the First The detachment and the second detachment met and carried out a three-month training session.

Then, the detachments of the North Korean Volunteer Team crossed the Yellow River in batches, and the third detachment entered the Taihang Mountains Eighth Route Army Anti-Japanese Base Area and were reorganized into the first detachment of the North Korean Liberation Army. Lee Guang and Quan He are also among them.

memoirs of old comrades

Kim Xuetie wrote in the Korean autobiography "The Last Team Leader":

"There is a female team member named Quan He, whose original name is Teramoto Asoko, is A Japanese. Her husband is Korean, so he speaks Korean more fluently. For various reasons, she divorced her husband and then devoted herself to the North Korean liberation movement. Later she remarried with my friend Li Da, and later settled in northern North Korea after the final battle. She died of tuberculosis and she was alone. Because she had no children under her knees, when she arrived at my house during the Pyongyang period, she liked to hold my baby who was starting to learn to walk and sway left and right. ”

From this we can see that after Kwon Hyuk divorced Lee Kwang, he followed the North Korean volunteers into North Korea, and then remarried and married Lee Da (Zheng Fenghan). Soon, Lee Da died of tuberculosis, and Kwon Hyuk was alone again.

Unsolved mystery

Judging from the fact that Li Guang has made many creative contributions in the Taihang Mountains, he is worthy of being a "technical expert". I believe this is closely related to the education and experience behind his talent.

However, he The whereabouts of Quanhe after the divorce, no one has known it, and has become an unsolved mystery.
