The true biography of Yaqiao, the first chivalrous king of the Republic of China

Chapter 70 The gunshots of the Central Plenary Session suddenly rang out...

On November 1935, 11, the Sixth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee of the Kuomintang will be held in Nanjing.The righteous members of the Chenguang Club are gearing up for the last fight.Under the command of Hua Kezhi, various preparations were carried out in an intense and orderly manner.However, what was not a problem at first has become a big problem.

The meeting backgrounds of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee and the Fifth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee are not the same.

The Sixth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee was originally planned to be held on September 9, but due to the resistance and delays of the anti-Chiang forces represented by the Southwest faction, the meeting was postponed again and again. On September 20, the Central Committee of the Kuomintang decided that the Sixth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee was finally scheduled to be held on November 9, and that the Fifth National Congress remained unchanged and would still be held on November 5 as originally planned.Chiang Kai-shek said that it is necessary to "strive for unity."But the Southwestern faction didn't buy it.

On September 9, Hu Hanmin, Chen Jitang, Li Zongren and others called Nanjing, criticizing the "five major" issues promulgated by Nanjing as "none of which is relevant to the current national salvation plan"; on September 8, Hu Hanmin and others called Nanjing again, proposing to Before the convening of the "Five National Congresses", two things should be implemented first: one is to implement the party's political platform that "the people have the right to freedom of speech and the press" and allow ordinary people to make suggestions and criticisms on politics and diplomacy; the other is to strictly implement the party's democratic centralization system, Members of the Central Committee and party members at all levels at home and abroad should have complete freedom to make suggestions, discuss and criticize party affairs, politics, military affairs, and diplomacy.The Southwest faction yelled frequently, and the real power factions from all over the country responded in groups, making Chiang Kai-shek dumb eat Coptis chinensis—it was hard to say.As a last resort, he sent Dai Jitao, Ma Chaojun and others to fly to various places to lobby, those who were appointed officials were appointed, those who made wishes made wishes, and those who asked for salary were paid.After a lot of hard work, he finally "settled" the princes from all over the country.The Southwest faction stated that they would "abandon the plan to overthrow the dictatorship." The Central Committee of Guangdong and Guangxi was willing to go to Nanjing to attend the meeting.As a result, the fragmented Kuomintang has a great unity scene of Jiang, Feng, Yan and other north-south cooperation.

However, Chiang Kai-shek had doubts about the princes from all walks of life bringing guards to Beijing to participate in the meeting.Don't let them bring the guards, they will be worried about being plotted against, and they won't be able to attend the meeting on time; let them bring the guards to the meeting, who knows what these desperadoes are thinking, the guns in the guards' hands are not vegetarian.What if some desperado takes the opportunity to assassinate?So he called Dai Li, Chen Lifu, and Ye Chulan together and asked them to strictly review to ensure the safety of the meeting.

Ye Chulan (1887-1946) was a famous poet of the Southern Society. "The south, to the north, is a sign of opposition to the northern court."A native of Wu County, Jiangsu Province. In 1916, he co-founded the "Republic of China Daily" with Shao Lizi, served as the editor-in-chief, and vigorously criticized Yuan Shikai for proclaiming himself emperor. In January 1924, at the National Congress of the Kuomintang, he was elected as a member of the Central Executive Committee.Served as Chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Government and Vice President of the Legislative Yuan of the Nationalist Government.At that time, he was the secretary-general of the Central Party Committee of the Kuomintang and the head of the Central Propaganda Department, and was the specific person in charge of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee.After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's order, he immediately called Peng Gechen, Director of the News Affairs Division, and Dong Xianguang, Director of the National Defense Propaganda Division, to his office, and solemnly demanded: "You must not be careless at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee. Mr. Jiang has something to say, Propaganda work should be reviewed, and there must be a strict certification standard. It cannot be like before, where anyone can participate. Domestic journalists are reviewed by Director Peng, and foreign journalists stationed in Beijing are reviewed by Director Dong. Try to control journalists attending the meeting number of people."

Peng Gechen and Dong Xianguang did not dare to be negligent. According to their business scope, they respectively drafted several standards for the issuance of special press cards, which were approved by Ye Chulan for implementation, and finally 62 cards were issued.Chenguang Society is a small society and does not meet the conditions for obtaining a license.

How to do?Without a special press card, it is difficult to fly into No. 16 Dingjiaqiao with wings, and all assassination plans will come to naught.Therefore, He Poguang went to Peng Ge and Chen every day to make troubles, and Hua Kezhi came to ask Li Huaicheng for help; ), Li Huaicheng went to find Xu Ninru again...

On the morning of November 11, Zhang Yuhua sent Gu Zifeng (an employee of Chenguang Society) to retrieve the suitcase stored at the home of his friend Lu Qingqi, took out the "palm treasure" and six rounds of bullets from the box, and handed them to Sun Fengming; The Ministry of Propaganda urged to obtain a special press card; Sun Fengming packed up like a holiday, wore a new overcoat, gave him back the Parker gold pen that Hua Kezhi gave to him, and pressed the "palm treasure" with bullets, and tried it in a random graveyard. After shooting one shot, he took a taxi and waited at the gate of No. 1 Dingjiaqiao; Hua Kezhi, Zhang Yuhua and others burned all the letters and documents according to the plan in advance; they notified the furniture store to move the rented furniture back; Left a letter on the table...

At 7:40, only 20 minutes before the official start of the conference, Peng Gechen saw He Poguang and was moved by his perseverance. In addition, many people helped to intercede. Grandson Sinu sent him a card.

He Poguang received the special press card, hurriedly took a taxi to No. 16 Dingjiaqiao, and handed the card to Sun Fengming. The two hugged each other speechlessly as a farewell.

Sun Fengming hurried into the Central Party Headquarters, the meeting had already opened, and the entrance of the auditorium was heavily guarded.He thought that the name on the special press card was his own, and the photo belonged to He Poguang. When the guards saw it, they would reveal their secrets, so they made a quick decision, as if nothing happened. He looked around and saw that in front of the Central Political Conference Hall, Several movie cameras were set up.Because of the previous experience, he knew that after the opening ceremony, the members of the Central Committee would take a group photo, so he decided to wait for "Jiang".So, taking advantage of the time when the members of the Central Committee hadn't come out, he walked into a small forest and made final preparations for battle...

At 9:20, the Central Committee members took their positions. There were two vacant seats in the middle of the first row. Obviously, one was reserved for Chiang Kai-shek and the other for Wang Jingwei.The venue was chattering like a nest of sparrows.A few minutes later, Wang Jingwei walked out of the building quickly and said, "The Chairman has something to do and won't take part in the photo shoot. Let's take a group photo." The members of the Central Committee immediately quieted down, put on their poses and expressions, and prepared to leave a precious image.But Sun Fengming, who was among the reporters and only ten meters away from Wang Jingwei, felt a thunderbolt from the blue sky: Chiang Kai-shek didn't show up, and the opium he swallowed had already exploded, what should we do?
Peng Gechen is organizing reporters to interview and take pictures at the meeting site.Later, he wrote in "Wang Jingwei's Stunning Witness":

The opening ceremony was held at the auditorium of the Central Party Headquarters at 9:700 am.The auditorium can accommodate [-] people. The front row of seats is for the Central Committee, followed by journalists and conference staff.At that time, the relationship between China and Japan was tense. Japanese journalists and other foreign journalists all carried cameras. I was afraid of accidents, so I temporarily told the reception staff that the reporters’ cameras had to be temporarily stored before being allowed in. Other journalists also had to check the photos. (The photo on the pass is posted) before you can enter.

At the opening ceremony, Chairman Wang Jingwei reported the significance of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. After about 10 minutes, the Central Committee members all went to the Central Political Conference Hall to take pictures.Chiang Kai-shek left.I also left later because I took care of the reporter relationship.After Jiang left the auditorium, he stood on the steps in front of the auditorium for a while. After observing, he turned to the Secretary-General's office and asked Ye Chulan: Why is the order so bad today?I immediately went to the door of the Central Political Conference Hall to take care of each other.

Standing in five rows to take pictures, Wang Jingwei, Zhang Jingjiang, Yan Xishan, Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Ji and others are all in the first row. The audience is almost full in a semicircle facing the first row, with cameras and movie cameras in the middle.The shooting ended at about 9:35, and the central committee members immediately turned back to go upstairs to the venue. At this moment, the sniper took a few steps from the crowd, pulled out a pistol from his coat pocket, and sniped at Wang Lianlian...

Zhang Xueliang said to Tang Degang:

It was very strange that day, Mr. Jiang didn't come out, everyone was waiting for him, and took pictures together when the Chairman came out.Why didn't he come out?

When everyone finished taking photos and was about to leave, they just turned around when the guns fired.

Did you know that back then, Yugoslavia was not called Yugoslavia, but Serbia.I have seen a film about the assassination of a Serbian prince. As soon as the gun went off, the police rushed towards the assassin with knives, and everyone ran to the place where the gun went off.

But the Chinese are on the contrary, we are better off, "the deaf man fired a cannon - it's gone."After the shot was fired, everyone broke up and ran away with a "wow". There are many jokes, so let's not mention it.

To be honest, I am sitting on a mountain to watch the scenery, and I am on a high place.On the third row, when I looked back, these people had all run away, and I was there alone to see what was going on.Of course, this is an instant thing.I saw Mr. Zhang Jilao running over to hug a person, hugging the murderer...

I rushed down, I have learned martial arts before, I know a little bit, but not very good.I tripped the murderer as soon as I went up, and with a bang, he fell down, and Zhang Puquan (Zhang Ji, courtesy name Puquan) threw himself on him, and it happened like this.

Later, it was Wang Jingwei's guard who shot him and wounded him.Not only did he shoot, but he also kicked and stepped on him.So, he can't do it.

I admire him for these few things.This man is really a murderer, enough to qualify as an assassin.Wang Jingwei was shot three times, one in the back, one in the back, and one in the face.You listen to me, the situation is like this.As soon as Wang turned around, he shot Wang. The murderer aimed at his back.You have to know that it is not easy for a person to remain calm in that situation.

You just study how calm and stable he is, and he didn't shoot randomly.Therefore, this person is qualified as an assassin.He is Wang Yaqiao's disciple, and this Wang Yaqiao is very powerful.
