In June 1948, the People's Liberation Army's " Jinchaji Daily " published an explosive news.
All those who saw the news were shocked. The military chief of staff Huang Shoufa was executed by Chairman Mao! The
message is written as follows: "... After Huang Shoufa committed a crime, he did not confess his guilt. Instead, he defended himself from many parties and tried to be cunning. After more than a year of investigation, the evidence was conclusive, but he could not deny it and admitted it directly. The reason why Huang Shoufa committed such a crime was because he held his position of merit and did whatever he wanted. The situation could not be disciplined, and the result would inevitably lead to the loss of the revolution and destroy himself at the same time. It should be a serious lesson for the entire army. In order to severely injure the law and discipline and educate the entire army, it was decided to punish the crime with death and execute the firing of the firing." It is rare for
to use such a serious word. So, what crime did Huang Shoufa commit?
Military general
Open the information of that year, people will see four shocking words - "adultery and murder of wife".
This made many people unbelievable. Huang Shoufa was an old revolutionary after all, so why did he kill his wife? In fact, let alone ordinary people, even Huang Shoufa’s direct superior, General Nie Rongzhen, could not believe it.
Huang Shoufa joined the revolution at the age of 19 and has made great achievements in military affairs for more than ten years. Now the war is imminent. It is the time when Huang Shoufa made contributions before the battle. Why did he do such a thing? Does he have any deep hatred with the person next to him?
However, after investigation, people found that this general who looked upright on the surface was a dirty person in private.
Nie Rongzhen
Huang Shoufa was originally a hard-working man. He had no parents since he was a child and earned a bite of food for the landlords to herd cattle.
At that time, he was really worse than death. He was beaten and scolded by the landlord every day. He had to get up to work before dawn and could not rest until midnight. He was about to be tortured to death by the landlord. Fortunately, the Red Army team arrived and saved his life.
Huang Shoufa, inspired by the army, also resolutely joined the Red Army. That year he was a 19-year-old boy.
Although he is young, he is very brave in combat, grows very fast in the army, and is highly valued by his superiors. What the army needs most is talents. People like Huang Shoufa will be very popular wherever they go.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Huang Shoufa shined. It was during the Battle of Huang Tuling. Huang Shoufa, as the chief of staff of the district, was ordered to guard the Jin-Cha-Hebei sub-district. Unexpectedly, the famous Japanese general Abe Guixiu suddenly invaded with a large army.
In fact, this is not beyond our expectations. Some time ago, the Japanese army was defeated on the battlefield. According to the Japanese army's combat habits, they would definitely launch a crazy counterattack after failure.
This time the enemy is coming in full force, and Huang Shoufa is responsible for heavy responsibilities. For a general who is less than 30 years old, such a challenge is indeed a bit difficult. But Huang Shoufa was not timid when facing the famous Abe Hitomi. He quickly reacted, asked his superiors for instructions, and set up a military formation to resist Abe Hitomi's surprise attack.
Huang Shoufa was both wise and brave. He saw that although Abe Queshu was famous, he had a fatal weakness, that is, he was arrogant and eager to make contributions. This mentality could be used by our army.
Abe Guixiu
On the way Abe Guixiu, Huang Shoufa set off his pocket array. As expected by Huang Shoufa, because of his eagerness to advance, Abe Queshu plunged into the encirclement of our army. When he found out that something was wrong, it was too late.
Our army quickly closed the encirclement and under the command of Huang Shoufa and others, they launched an attack on the troops led by Abe Guxiu. Abe Guxiu had no choice but to lead the troops to evacuate one after another, and finally retreated to an inconspicuous small courtyard.
However, the invaders will be punished by evil. Our artillery troops accidentally discovered him hiding in a small courtyard. They attacked decisively and fired fire at the location where Abe Kusui was, successfully shooting Abe Kusui to death.
Lifetime Event
This battle has greatly boosted our army's morale. Even Chairman Mao heard about this and praised Huang Shoufa's command.
All major newspapers and magazines of our army happily reported Huang Shoufa's heroic deeds. For a time, Huang Shoufa became a celebrity in the anti-Japanese forces. Huang Shoufa also walked very steadily afterwards, making contributions and promotions all the way.
By 1948, Huang Shoufa had been successfully promoted to Chief of Staff of the Military Region, which was truly a bright future.
Moreover, 1948 is a very critical time node, and our army is about to launch a decisive battle against the enemy.
This is the time to use people. If Huang Shoufa maintains his previous courage and relies on his past and present contributions, he will definitely be in his position when he is awarded the title after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
However, Huang Shoufa can start well but not end well.
After success again and again, he became floating and indulged in enjoyment, and his mentality changed tremendously.
In the past, he always remembered that he was a hard-working child and a cowherd, but now he has climbed to a high position, but he has forgotten his past suffering and feels that he is already high and is not on the same level as the common people.
This mentality encouraged his arrogant arrogance and also planted the seeds for the final tragedy.
Because he joined the army at a young age, Huang Shoufa never took care of solving his lifelong affairs.
Until 1938, a young and beautiful girl named He Yin came to the base. He Yin is a very young college student. Because he is determined to revolution, he left his wealthy family and came to the revolutionary base.
Speaking of Huang Shoufa and He Yin, their experiences are actually different at all. Huang Shoufa was born in a poor family, but He Yin was born in a wealthy business family in Tianjin. He was loved by his parents as a pearl in his eyes since he was a child.
However, it is worthy of admiration that although he was born in a rich and gentle village, He Yin was not bound by the wealth in front of him, and still put the great cause of the nation first.
He Yin's arrival is a great thing for the base area, because He Yin has learned some radio technology in the past, which was the talent we needed most at that time. Therefore, the organization quickly sent He Yin to the military region to conduct further radio studies so that it can be used by the military in the future.
He Yin set out after receiving the task, and his superiors hurriedly notified Huang Shoufa, who was in charge of military affairs, and asked him to welcome He Yin and not neglect this technical talent.
Huang Shoufa felt his heart beating faster when he saw the lively and lovely He Yin. As the saying goes, beauties have loved heroes since ancient times, and He Yin has long heard of the deeds of the general Huang Shoufa. As a patriotic and progressive female student, He Yin naturally has a very good impression of Huang Shoufa. The two of them chatted all the way and had a great time.
Because of work, He Yin and Huang Shoufa cannot avoid contact at work. After a while, the two of them became more and more familiar with each other, and their favorability for each other has long exceeded the boundaries of friends.
At this time, the big guys in the military region also saw the signs between the two people, so they enthusiastically set the red line for them. This is exactly what Huang Shoufa wants.
He Yin had no objection to this marriage. Although Huang Shoufa was much older than her, she thought that Huang Shoufa was loyal and reliable and felt that she was a person worthy of entrusting.
Just like that, under the blessing of everyone, Huang Shoufa and He Yin held a simple wedding in the military region and officially became a revolutionary couple. However, they did not expect that the marriage ended in a tragic end.
Couple conflicts
At the beginning, the two were still very sweet. He Yin was out of the hall and into the kitchen, which made Huang Shoufa feel that he had married a beautiful wife and was very proud. The two were as good as a tiest.
But not long after, He Yin told Huang Shoufa that he would go to another place to participate in the radio intelligence transmission mission immediately, and he didn't know how long it would take to come back after leaving.
This made Huang Shoufa frown. Huang Shoufa's thoughts are actually very traditional, and he thinks that women should take care of their husbands and children at home.
He thinks He Yin has a gentle personality and is a good wife in the traditional sense.But Huang Shoufa ignored how could a female college student who could bravely break off ties with an old-style family and come to the revolutionary area alone be a traditional housewife?
He Yin also saw her husband's concerns, but she couldn't figure it out. Her husband was obviously a general who fought on the battlefield, so why couldn't he understand her revolutionary enthusiasm? Faced with this situation, He Yin didn't want to explain anything more.
The task was urgent, He Yin hurriedly packed her luggage and left. This made Huang Shoufa even more unhappy. He felt that his wife didn't take him seriously at all and left as soon as he wanted. Isn't work more important than himself? Huang Shoufa was furious.
However, the conflict between the couple was resolved by an unexpected surprise.
It turned out that He Yin got pregnant with Huang Shoufa's child during her vacation after work. The crystallization of love made both of them excited. He Yin temporarily stopped the work at hand, took care of the baby, and waited for the birth of the child.
Now, Huang Shoufa also threw away the unhappiness of the past. He thought that when the child was born, this would be a harmonious family. Moreover, since the wife has to take care of the children, she will definitely not be able to travel far and can take care of the family with peace of mind.
However, He Yin doesn't think so at all. Of course the child is going to be born, but He Yin does not intend to give up his career completely for the sake of the child.
In He Yin's view, the revolutionary tasks on the front line are much more important than their own small family. Children can be temporarily handed over to others to take care of, but even if the wireless reporting tasks on the front line are delayed for one minute, something big will happen.
After the daughter was born, Huang Shoufa was happy to look forward to his wife taking care of her husband and children at home. Unexpectedly, He Yin was planning to return to the front line to work in just two months.
This is very different from Huang Shoufa’s original idea. Huang Shoufa got angry and asked his wife: Why did he so persistently go to the front line?
He felt very uncomfortable when he heard her husband questioning this. She looked at Huang Shoufa and said to him firmly:
"The reason why I ran to the military region regardless of danger was not to be a wife, but to make a contribution to the country. If I only stay at home to serve my husband and children, why should I come to the front line?"
The wife said something that made Huang Shoufa speechless. He really had no reason to refute, but he still couldn't turn this in his heart. He regretted it very much, thinking that he had married the wrong person, but he had already gotten married, so he couldn't divorce halfway, right?
He Yin saw her husband like this, and she was reluctant to say anything else. She hurried back to her workplace, while the child was entrusted to the new nanny.
Affair exposed
This nanny is young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, but age is not a big problem. He Yin inspected the nanny for two days. Seeing that she has a good temper and is gentle to the child, she entrusted the child to her with confidence.
But He Yin didn't expect that this was actually an act of attracting a wolf into the house.
After He Yin left, Huang Shoufa was frowning all day long and didn’t even have much energy to work. He was stuck at home and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t figure it out, why could he be a chief of staff and even his wife not be able to subdue?
The conflicts at home gave Huang Shoufa a strong sense of frustration.
And just when Huang Shoufa was in a bad mood, the young and beautiful nanny caught his attention. The nanny was named Shan Jieying. Like Huang Shoufa, she is also a child of a poor family. There are many common topics between the two.
Huang Shoufa couldn't find anyone to communicate at home, so he chatted with the nanny from time to time. As he chatted, the relationship between the two became a little distorted.
Huang Shoufa gradually felt that he might as well marry Shan Jieying. Shan Jieying was obedient to him and kept the family in order. Isn’t this much better than He Yin, who ignores the family all day long?
At this time, Huang Shoufa had already expanded. He felt that he had made great contributions. Even if he made any mistakes, his superiors would not do anything to him. At worst, he would just commit crimes and make contributions.
With this mentality, Huang Shoufa actually began to pursue Shan Jieying directly.
Faced with Huang Shoufa's pursuit, the young Shan Jieying was at a loss. At this time, if you agree to Huang Shoufa’s pursuit, it will undoubtedly destroy other people’s family, but if you agree, won’t you be the official wife? After weighing
, Shan Jieying decided to follow Huang Shou to launch the pirate ship.
He Yin knew nothing about what happened at home. Every time He Yin came back from vacation, Huang Shoufa and Shan Jieying would pretend.
He Yin is very busy with work and has to leave after staying at home for a few hours, so she didn't notice her husband's extramarital affair at all.
He Yin saw that Shan Jieying took good care of her child and trusted this little nanny even more. She also felt very sorry for Shan Jieying's helplessness at home. She brought some money and some pastries to Shan Jieying from time to time, as if she had regarded Shan Jieying as half of her sister.
However, there is no airtight wall .
At the end of 1947, He Yin suddenly took a vacation and went home. Huang Shoufa didn't know whether his wife came back or was hanging out with Shan Jieying at home. As a result, when He Yin pushed the door, he saw her husband hugging Shan Jieying, with an intimate posture, and He Yin was very excited.
She couldn't believe that her husband would do such a ugly thing, and she was pregnant with Huang Shoufa's second child in her belly.
The couple had a big fight over this matter. He Yin was unwilling to suffer this grievance and said to Huang Shoufa on the spot: When the Chinese New Year is over, he will submit a divorce application to his superiors.
killing intentions gradually arise
In theory, Huang Shoufa had long wanted to get rid of this bad marriage. When he heard his wife filed for divorce, Huang Shoufa suddenly became panicked.
After all, in this marriage, he is completely at fault. If He Yin submits a divorce application, his superiors will definitely ask about the cause and effect. With such a serious style problem, he will definitely be punished.
PLA is disciplined and no one will shelter him. Huang Shoufa suddenly lost his mind. He hurriedly advised his wife kindly, hoping that his wife could give him another chance, but He Yin was not a person who could compromise and wanted to divorce whatever he said.
He Yin's attitude actually made Huang Shou have the intention to kill. Huang Shoufa felt that if he wanted to cover up his scandal, he could only kill someone to silence him.
So, while He Yin had not returned yet, Huang Shoufa secretly found his guard Bian Zhenhai and asked Bian Zhenhai to shoot He Yin while He Yin was not paying attention.
But Bian Zhenhai was frightened when he heard the Chief of Staff’s thoughts. He was not sure what happened in Huang Shoufa’s family, but he could not do such a thing no matter what.
So he asked Huang Shoufa to have a good talk with He Yin, resolve the conflicts, and never do anything to kill people.
Bian Zhenhai's attitude disappointed Huang Shoufa. He thought that under his coercion and temptation, the guards would obey orders. Unexpectedly, no matter how he scared him, Bian Zhenhai refused to agree.
In desperation, Huang Shoufa could only threaten Bian Zhenhai and could not tell this matter. Bian Zhenhai agreed to this request. Afterwards, Huang Shoufa secretly planned again, since Bian Zhenhai was unwilling to take action, he would only come in person.
On the second day of the first lunar month in 1947, He Yin planned to return to the work department. While she was packing her luggage, Huang Shoufa suddenly broke into the bedroom. He Yin was shocked when he saw her husband suddenly come in.
He Yin was about to get close to him and asked what else was going on. Unexpectedly, just the moment He Yin stood up, Huang Shoufa suddenly took out the pistol that had been hidden at his waist and fired twice at his wife.
He Yin suddenly fell into a pool of blood, and lost his breath, and the child in her womb naturally disappeared with her mother.
Seeing that He Yin was dying, Huang Shou became nervous. How could he hide this matter?
Huang Shoufa thought about it and decided to pretend to be suicide. He stuffed the pistol into He Yin's hand, then cleaned the scene, went out to call someone, and said that his wife had somehow raised the gun and committed suicide at home. Of course, this incident quickly alarmed the entire military region.
method is unforgiving
Everyone is very familiar with He Yin. They know that she is not the kind of person who easily finds short-sightedness, so why did she suddenly die inexplicably? Everyone had doubts in their hearts, and all the doubts naturally pointed to Huang Shoufa, who was the first to discover the corpse.
Many people have vaguely heard that Huang Shoufa’s family relationship is not harmonious, and some people also know that he and the nanny Shan Jieying are not clear. Will He Yin’s death be related to these things? But at this moment, everyone is still in the guessing stage, so you can't say such words randomly.
Huang Shoufa insisted that he committed suicide. No matter how others asked, he was just that kind of speech.
Huang Shoufa thought that as the war was approaching, it was the time to employ people. Maybe the superiors would temporarily help him suppress this matter for the sake of the overall situation. When he made contributions on the front line, even if this matter was exposed, he would pass by lightly.
But Huang Shoufa did not expect that his superiors were very serious about this matter.
After hearing the whole story of the matter, Nie Rongzhen immediately determined that something was wrong in this matter. So, Nie Rongzhen sent an investigation team to Huang Shoufa’s home to investigate. This investigation naturally found out that He Yin’s cause of death was not suicide, but murder.
Nie Rongzhen
Guardian Bian Zhenhai also provided key information to the investigation team, that is, Huang Shoufa once instructed himself to secretly murder He Yin.
The evidence is very critical, and the investigation team immediately asked Huang Shoufa himself.
At this time, Huang Shoufa had no room for refutation, but he still remained unchanged and made up things. Until he could not make up any more, he admitted that he had killed his wife.
But he immediately cried and was full of ugly things, saying that he must have made meritorious service and that he was also confused when he killed his wife.
Huang Shoufa's actions made Nie Rongzhen very angry. He was originally optimistic about this general, but he never expected that this man dared to kill his wife, and he could not tell.
Chairman Mao was also very indignant after learning about this.
At that time, people were discussing what to do with Huang Shoufa. According to regulations, he was going to be shot, but as Huang Shoufa thought, the war was imminent, should he be given a chance to make meritorious service?
Chairman Mao believes that Huang Shoufa's behavior has touched the bottom line.
He dared to draw his gun to his wife today, which has proved that he is inferior. If he is allowed to commit crimes and escape punishment, then when the world is pacified in the future, I am afraid that he will raise his gun toward millions of ordinary people.
So, Chairman Mao personally ordered Huang Shoufa to be executed.
He paid his sins with his blood. Compared to replenishing his merits and demerits, blood debts and blood payments are the greatest justice.
