After many enemy generals were arrested, they were generally unwilling to tell our army their true thoughts, resulting in many historical insider stories being covered up.

But after they were captured, they would tell other war criminals their true thoughts in private. Take the senior war criminalLiao Yaoxiang, for example. When he was arrested, he had an extremely tough attitude and even directly contradicted Liu Yalou.

But when Liao Yaoxiang arrived at the Gongdelin War Criminals Management Center, he told Shen Zui privately that he had been running for his life for many days and was so tired that he was dizzy. But when he was captured, he felt at ease. His real thought was: the hard days are finally over.

(Liao Yaoxiang, Zheng Dongguo, and Fan Hanjie, the "Three Northeastern Giants" were captured and studied in Harbin)

While writing his memoirs, he revealed the true thoughts of many senior war criminals, including his "private chat" with Fan Hanjie, including Sad and funny.

Battle of Liaoshen , Fan Hanjie disguised himself as an ordinary soldier to escape, but was captured by our army on the way. He was once regarded as an ordinary soldier.

If Fan Hanjie disguises himself well enough, it is really possible to get the severance pay of an "ordinary soldier" and escape.

But he wavered again. He felt sorry for Chiang, so he simply stood up and admitted his identity. He hoped that our army would give him a happy life and asked him to be shot.

Fan Hanjie and Shen Zui chatted, not only talking about themselves, but also about the jokes Hu Zongnan made. Hu Zongnan went to the fortune teller to tell him his fortune, wondering if he had any destiny to plot the world; but the fortune teller flattered him and said that Hu Neng would always be as powerful in the northwest as Zhongnan Mountain , which made Hu Leiting furious.

(Fan Hanjie was captured)

The detailed story of this matter starts with Fan Hanjie’s age. He was born in Guangdong in 1896. Among the generals born in Huangpu, he is a relatively special existence. He is 2 years older than the director of the Political Department, Zhou Gong.

At Huangpu Military Academy , Pearl River water overflowed the playground, and students were running in the water.

Many students like to make friends with Fan Hanjie, not only because Fan is resourceful, but also because he is a veteran who can always tell everyone about his previous war experiences as a joke. In addition, he is good at post-war analysis, so in the military school Very popular here.

This stems from the fact that before Fan Hanjie entered Huangpu, between 1918 and 1920, he served as a member of the General Headquarters and the commander of the military depot. At that time, Jiang served as acting chief of staff.

Fan Hanjie also served as a brigade commander in the Guangdong Army. It was because the troops were scattered on the battlefield that he entered Huangpu.

Zhou Gong, director of Huangpu Political Department, and Principal Jiang took a fancy to Fan Hanjie's experience in the Guangdong Army, so they have always attached great importance to Fan Hanjie.

The first phase of Huangpu is full of stars, and most of them have already gone to the battlefield before they have graduated.

Principal Jiang focused on training Fan Hanjie, so after Fan graduated from Huangpu, he was specially sent to the German Military Academy for further study.

During the Anti-Japanese War, Hu Zongnan and Fan Hanjie were in the northwest and repeatedly caused friction with our army. They were typical die-hards.

Hu Zongnan (center)

After the Japanese surrender, Hu Zongnan's ambitions expanded, and his greedy gaze was no longer limited to the northwest, but to the entire China.

Ever since, Hu Zongnan sent hundreds of thousands of troops near Yan'an to North China and Northeast China in batches, including the First Corps led by Fan Hanjie.

According to Shen Zui, Hu Zongnan was a careerist. He did not want to be king and hegemon in Zhongnan Mountain, but wanted to plot the whole country.

But the irony is that Hu Zongnan, as the deputy commander of the Eighth War Zone, led 400,000 troops to fight our army, but he made a big black joke when he was telling fortunes.

At that time, he met a so-called "extraordinary expert" who was good at deducing gossip and claimed to be an astrology expert. Many senior officials went to this person for fortune telling, and Hu Zongnan also went there because of his reputation.

In order to please Hu Zongnan, the fortune teller compared the "Nan" in his name with Zhongnan Mountain.

came to the conclusion that Zhongnan Mountain is in the northwest, and Hu Zongnan is also in the northwest, so Hu Zongnan will be like Zhongnan Mountain, powerful in the entire northwest , and dominate Shaanxi and Gansu...

The fortune teller originally thought that this time After speaking out, he will be rewarded by Hu Zongnan, and at least he will be praised by this great warlord.

Unexpectedly, Hu Zongnan was furious, saying that a good man has ambitions in all directions, and even directly stated his ambition, saying that his career is the whole of China.

(Hu Zongnan)

At this time, let’s look at Fan Hanjie. With Hu Zongnan’s high hopes, he led the so-called elite northwest troops. In fact, they were troops who had never participated in actual combat against the enemy during the Anti-Japanese War.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Chiang thought of Fan Hanjie in Nanjing, so he wanted Fan to be the deputy commander-in-chief of the army.

Fan Hanjie naturally refused to go, so he found various high-sounding reasons to shirk, because what he really wanted to do was to use the more than 100,000 people in his hands to grab territory for Hu Zongnan.

In that chaotic era, territory was the foundation for warlords to settle down and live.

The war broke out in the Northeast, and our army's foothold was not stable. Because of the need for peace negotiations, Chief Lin Luo was forced to fight a large-scale urban war with the enemy.

When the peace negotiations failed completely, Sime withdrew from the city and achieved better development in the countryside.

Enemy general Du Yuming was seriously ill and needed to recuperate. Chen Cheng seized this opportunity and couldn't wait to go to the Northeast to replace Du Yuming.

Chen Cheng mistakenly believed that the Fourth Field was weak. If Du Yuming could beat me, so could I... Little did he know that the Fourth Field had already grown in the countryside. Chen Cheng was defeated and the situation in Northeast China was completely reversed.

Chen lied and claimed to be seriously ill, so Chiang replaced Wei Lihuang to take charge of the Northeast. After Wei was forced to take office, he made Fan Hanjie serve as deputy commander and concurrently as director of the Jinzhou Command Post.

Wei Lihuang (middle)

But Fan Hanjie never expected that Si Ye bypassed Shenyang and actually called Jinzhou first, and Fan's command post received emergency telegrams one after another.

Enemy Jinzhou's hundreds of thousands of troops were eaten by the four wilds.

Later, Fan Hanjie said to Shen Zui in private: "I remember it very clearly. It was the afternoon of October 16, 1948..."

Fan Hanjie realized that Jinzhou was over. Hou Jingru could not defeat Tashan at all. He listened to the artillery fire for several days. No reinforcements came.

After thinking again and again, Fan Hanjie led several army commanders and a few followers to break through.

Above their heads, there was a plane sent from Nanjing, using smoke bombs to remind Fan Hanjie that he should break out to the southwest.

Fan Hanjie hurried like a bereaved dog, panicking like a fish that slipped through the net. The group walked to the vicinity of Chenjiatun and broke out along a narrow mountain road.

did not encounter an ambush in the mountains, but when they were crossing the road, they happened to get into the ambush circle of our army team.

Our soldiers rushed out and asked Fan Hanjie and others to disarm. Fan was forced to put down his weapons.

From the perspective of our soldiers, the enemies in front of them were all wearing ordinary military uniforms, so they thought they were defeated.

As a result, the soldiers regarded Fan Hanjie and others as ordinary soldiers, and escorted them from the small village to the town, and then from the town to the city... In fact, prisoners of war in various places must be managed uniformly.

According to Fan Hanjie's private words, he was quite lucky at first and hid his true identity. However, during the process of being escorted, he thought of Principal Jiang in Nanjing and felt sorry for Mr. Jiang.

(Our army escorted prisoners)

Fan Hanjie blamed himself and felt guilty. He thought that even if he could get the severance package and escape, how could he report to Jiang later? It is estimated that he will be shot in all likelihood.

Fan Hanjie thought that he was destined to die, so he went to the guarding soldier at the door and directly confessed his identity.

Fan Hanjie only wanted a quick death, so he told our army cadres that he had only one request, and that was to be shot as soon as possible.

He had a tough attitude and even said that he should not be escorted back and forth anymore. He had not walked for a long time and it was very difficult for him.

But what Fan Hanjie never expected was that he originally wanted to be shot as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, after our military leaders learned of Fan Hanjie's true identity, instead of being shot or punished, he was sent to the headquarters and received preferential treatment.

Fan Hanjie was sent to Jiamusi , where he ate four dishes and one soup every day. In 1956, he was transferred to Beijing Gongdelin, where he met the military reunification agent Shen Zui.

In February 1961, Duke Zhou met with Gong Delin, the second batch of amnesty senior war criminals, and recognized Fan Hanjie and Zeng Kuanqing at a glance.

So that all the war criminals present showed very surprised expressions, because from 1924 to 1961, 37 years passed by in a hurry.

At that time, Fan Hanjie had already undergone a complete transformation. He admired Duke Zhou's memory. He never expected that Director Zhou would still remember him. You can imagine his excitement in his heart.

Duke Zhou said: "When I taught politics in Huangpu, I knew a lot about some of the students in the first and second periods. Fan Hanjie and Li Xianzhou were both older than me as a teacher..."

Duke Zhou also said that Fan Hanjie's The figure is thin and tall, while Zeng Kuanqing is just the opposite, fat and short.

After Fan He was pardoned, he made many contributions to the cause of peaceful reunification.
