In August 1938, several major arms theft cases occurred in the two arsenals of Northeast Army, , under the Kuomintang, stationed in Xi'an, No. 5 and No. 7, and a large number of arms disappeared.
The arms were stolen in full view of everyone, this was the first time the national army encountered it. According to rough statistics, the stolen arms can prepare a regiment's strength.
Due to the huge number, the theft case alarmed Chiang Kai-shek . Chiang Kai-shek ordered the case to be solved within a time limit, and the spies under Dai Li were busy.

After investigation and tracking, the Military Intelligence Bureau Special Inspection Team finally believed that several arms theft cases were committed by the same group, so the case was investigated together.
Who knew that after checking and searching for more than half a year, the arms theft case has made no progress, and the arms thieves disappeared without a trace like air.
At the same time, Japanese and puppet traitors also noticed the arms theft case, and these dog bastards found that the batch of arms was flowing into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. It turned out that when the arms stolen occurred, the Eighth Route Army's firepower was super powerful, which invisibly posed a huge deterrent to the Japanese army. Therefore, the Japanese commander Colonel Yamada issued a wanted arms thief.
This time, the Japanese invaders and the national army formed a consensus, that is, they must arrest the arms thieves. The national army, the Japanese army and the puppet army jointly spread an invisible net, but in the end, the thieves did not appear again, and this arms thief case became the largest unsolved case in the history of the National Government.

Years have passed, and more than half a century has passed in a blink of an eye.
In the early spring of 1995, a 91-year-old cadre from the Liaoning Provincial Party Committee Cadre Retirement House suddenly revealed that she was the "female thief" in the Kuomintang army's arms theft case 57 years ago. It was obvious that the old man said that he was the "female thief" and followed the words of the Kuomintang spy.
For a moment, reporters with a keen sense of smell flocked to witness the face of this female hero. An old reporter opened his mouth wide in surprise. Unexpectedly, this female hero who had hidden fame and had been invisible for half a century was the first lady of founding general Lu Zhengcao Gao Chongde .
Gao Chongde
It turned out that Gao Chongde, an old department-level cadre who was 91 years old, had been bedridden for half a year due to illness. Perhaps because he felt that there was not much time, the old lady finally told the secret hidden in her heart to her niece who was serving her.
At that time, the old lady said in a weak voice: "I am the arms thief that the Kuomintang and the Japanese wanted to catch more than fifty years ago." A few words shocked my niece and stunned her. The old man's narration then brought her niece back to the disaster-stricken , the three northeastern provinces, .
The heroine who is as good as a man
The CCP’s super spy, the arms thief in the enemy’s mouth, and the heroine of the Republic Gao Chongde was born in 1904 in an ordinary family in Heishan County, Liaoning Province. She is the first lady of the Republic General Lu Zhengcao. She is the same age as Commander Lu. Lu Zhengcao and Zhang Xueliang are fellow villagers. Both of them are from Haicheng City, Liaoning Province.
Before I met Lu Zhengcao, Gao Chongde was a fierce little girl. She loved to watch the story of Mulan Mu Guiying since she was a child, and always wanted to serve the country like them when she grew up.
At this time, Lu Zhengcao, who was on another parallel line, graduated from the Northeast Martial Arts Hall. He and Zhang Xueliang are brothers, but Zhang Xueliang also serves as the principal of of the Martial Arts Hall. This shows that Lu Zhengcao and Zhang Xueliang are both teachers and friends. After graduation, Lu Zhengcao served as the company commander and battalion commander of a certain unit of the Northeast Army, and later became Zhang Xueliang's guard battalion commander.
Lu Zhengcao
It is said that women become more and more beautiful as they grow up. Gao Chongde, who is 18 years old, is like a blooming rose, and everyone loves it. At that time, the matchmaker who proposed marriage almost stepped on the threshold of the high family. Unexpectedly, no one liked Miss Gao, among which there were many children from rich families. The parents were puzzled and didn't know what their baby daughter was thinking?
In fact, Gao Chongde has a ruler in his heart. She doesn’t like red dress and armed, doesn’t like quietness and movement. She is a tomboy in people’s eyes. She always believes that the prince charming in her heart should be a heroic soldier.
Not long after, with the help of the matchmaker, Gao Chongde married Lu Zhengcao, the then battalion commander of the 16th Brigade of the Northeast Army stationed in Heishan. Soon after, Lu Zhengcao was promoted to the commander, and Gao Chongde became the wife of the commander who everyone envied.
It is worth mentioning that when other high-ranking wives were busy playing mahjong, putting on makeup and watching opera, Gao Chongde did not have the problem of his wife. She followed her husband to work on targets and practiced shooting, and worked like a wild boy with the soldiers. As a result, she developed a sharpshooter who was hit every time and was nicknamed "female bandit leader" by the soldiers.

Later, Lu Zhengcao became Zhang Xueliang's adjutant, and was in a position of flattery for everyone. If you want to meet Zhang Xueliang, you have to pass him.
At that time, some thin-skinned subordinates were afraid of being hit by a tough situation and did not dare to look for Lu Zhengcao directly, so they walked into Gao Chongde's back door.
Gao Chongde gave great help without violating the principles. Therefore, invisibly, Gao Chongde accumulated connections, and she did not have the airs of an official wife. Gao Chongde had a good reputation among the Northeast Army, which laid the foundation for her to transport arms to the Eighth Route Army in the future.
In a blink of an eye, it was September 18, 1931. The "918 Incident " that shocked China and the world broke out. Because the young commander Zhang Xueliang implemented Chiang Kai-shek's non-resistance order, in less than half a year, the three eastern provinces completely fell and ravaged under the iron hoof of the Japanese invaders.
At this time, Gao Chongde and her husband Lu Zhengcao were filled with righteous indignation. While hating the Japanese invaders' burning, killing and looting, they were also heartbroken by the corruption and incompetence of the National Government. However, the soldiers regarded obeying orders as their duty, and Gao Chongde and her husband and the Northeast Army retreated to the pass.
Losing the initiative in the first battlefield did not extinguish Gao Chongde's anger against Japan. After entering the customs, she actively participated in the anti-Japanese national salvation movement , posted slogans, scattered leaflets, and gave speeches on the street, calling on the people to be devastated slaves, and petitioned the Peking government to recover the lost land in the northeast...
On December 12, 1936, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched the " Xi'an Incident " in order to force Jiang to fight against Japan. Chiang Kai-shek was detained and detained, and the internal battles of the Kuomintang were about to break out. To be honest, this was very unfavorable to the national anti-Japanese war.
is based on the overall situation. The CCP sent Zhou Enlai to Xi'an to resolve the crisis. With Zhou Enlai's wisdom mediation, the Xi'an Incident was peacefully resolved. During the contact, Lu Zhengcao, inspired by Zhou Enlai, joined the Communist Party and became a red spy in the Northeast Army.
was ordered to steal the arsenal in the face of danger and thieves
At the appeal of the people across the country and all walks of life, Chiang Kai-shek finally agreed to unite in anti-Japanese war against Japan. Of course, this was his unwilling words under the pressure of the environment. Since then, part of the Communist Party of China's army was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National.
On July 7, 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out on this day. The " July 7 Incident " unveiled the curtain of Japan's full invasion of China.
At this time, Gao Chongde devoted himself to the anti-Japanese anger. In order to fight against Japan, Gao Chongde and Lu Zhengcao and his wife had to separate. Lu Zhengcao led the army to the front line, while Gao Chongde took the family members of the Northeast Army to evacuate to the south.
Advanced evacuation, Mr. Wang, the underground party of the Communist Party of China, found Gao Chongde. He asked Gao Chongde to take in some scattered soldiers of the Northeast Army as his wife Lu Zhengcao.
At that time, Mrs. Gao did not know Mr. Wang's identity, but her character was her courage to save people and fire. Without saying a word, Gao Chongde used the money he had saved to save more than 300 scattered soldiers.
It is precisely because of this righteous act that she has accumulated connections for her in the future. These people took the initiative to transport arms for her in the future and undoubtedly became members of her gang.
One day in 1938, Mr. Wang and Gao Chongde met a mysterious figure, who was Lin Boqu, chairman of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region Government.
At that time, Lin Boqu extended his hands enthusiastically. Gao Chongde had heard of Lin a long time ago. He was excited and took Lin's hands forward: "I finally met my mother's family. I want to pick up my weapons and go to the front line to eliminate the Japanese." Gao Chongde was so excited that he looked like a child.
Lin Boqu in Yan'an period
Lin Boqu knew Gao Chongde's background well, and then fully affirmed the patriotic work she had done. After a moment of change, Chairman Lin said seriously: "Saving the country may not be on the front line, and there is great achievements in the rear."
Gao Chongde was puzzled, and Chairman Lin continued, "Let me be your leader for the time being." Gao Chongde was happy and said, "I don't know what the leader has to do?"
Lin Boqu did not turn around and said, "Comrade Gao, the party organization hopes you provide arms and ammunition for the Eighth Route Army." Looking at Gao Chongde in a daze, Chairman Lin explained: Chiang Kai-shek implemented the policy of first pacifying the country when he fought against foreign countries. Although he was in an open manner with the CCP to fight against Japan, in fact, he withheld the arms of the Eighth Route Army, and Chiang Kai-shek's intention was very obvious. He wanted to use the Japanese invaders to eliminate the Eighth Route Army and use this to weaken the military strength of our party.
Gao Chongde's eyes were inflamed when he heard this, and his fists were so clenched that it almost squeezed out water. "Old Jiang is really not a thing. Two faces and three swords are playing tricks." Chairman, don't worry, I have taken this task and ensure it is completed successfully and live up to the trust of the party organization.
In this way, Gao Chongde began to plan to steal Northeast Army arms to support the Eighth Route Army.
The first time the stolen arms, Gao Chongde locked his target in the 53rd Army's warehouse No. 5. She was already in charge of the logistics work of Lu Zhengcao's regiment, and the warehouse manager was the scattered soldier she rescued, so she entered the warehouse effortlessly. She allocated the recruits on the grounds that they needed to get some guns and ammunition as supplies, and the first batch of arms were successfully out of the warehouse.

munitions were effortless to call out the library, but how to transfer it to the Eighth Route Army became a problem. Just when she was in trouble, the straitors she had taken in came in handy. In order to repay their kindness, these people took the initiative to become porters.
For the safety of arms, Gao Chongde personally carried it with everyone. She encouraged everyone, saying, "Only by sending the arms to the front line can the Japanese be severely attacked. Everyone works together to drive the Japanese out of China!"
With the first smooth progress, Gao Chongde soon followed the rules and staged a play of stolen arms in the Arsenal No. 7 of the Northeast Army.
By continuously sending arms to the Eighth Route Army, the firepower of the Eighth Route Army increased greatly and severely attacked the invaders, but this aroused the suspicion of the Japanese invaders: "The Eighth Route Army could not have produced such advanced weapons so quickly. There must be something tricky here!"
Just when the Japanese invaders were puzzled, Gao Chongde took advantage of the wind and took advantage of the situation and directed three night thieves, which meant to bribe the treasury managers and officers at all levels, and used unjust means to carry out theft...
When there is a way, you will always encounter ghosts when you walk on night roads for a long time. The several stealing of arms finally attracted the attention of the senior military leaders, and then Chiang Kai-shek sent military command spies to investigate. So the opening scene appeared, but the spy never expected that the arms thief was the wife of a senior general of the Northeast Army.
In a blink of an eye, it was 1940. Just when the Japanese national army and puppet troops worked together to arrest the arms thieves, Gao Chongde quietly entered the revolutionary holy land of Yan'an under the protection of underground agents of our party. Chairman Mao personally criticized a cave for her to heal her wounds. At this point, the Japanese invaders finally couldn't figure out where the arms thieves went? The mystery of the disappearance of the thief in the Yangtze River is left behind.
In order to protect the Northeast Army soldiers who participated in the stealing of arms, Gao Chongde, who was in Yan'an, kept his mouth tightly. Except for a few senior officials of the Communist Party of China, no one else knew that Gao Chongde was a wanted arms thief.
After the founding of New China, Gao Chongde spared no effort to build New China, and was promoted to the department level and enjoyed the national policy pension. But she never mentioned the robbery of arms to outsiders.
Who knew that this time I kept my mouth shut for more than half a century. It was not until she was 91 years old that she felt that she had not had enough time because of her lingering illness.
The last sentence: Gao Chongde has hidden his heroic deeds for more than 50 years for the sake of revolutionary cause. She did not seek credit for the party organization during her lifetime. She was simple and honest in her life. She truly fulfilled the oath of the Communist Party. She is our role model to learn from.
