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

Chapter 84 N versions of Wuzhou's death

It's hard to live a wonderful life, but I only want to die a fierce one.

1936年10月20日晚上8时许，一代大侠王亚樵罹难梧州，年仅48岁。

The sieve of time As time goes by, the mesh of memory gets bigger and bigger, and what is left in the end is often the most valuable people or things.

More than 70 years have passed, and many high-ranking officials, tycoons, heroes, talented scholars and beauties have been ruthlessly screened out by the net of memory, while Wang Yaqiao, who has no position, no power, no money and no power, has always remained in the collective memory of the nation, and is like A jar of fine wine will get better with time.

How did Wang Yaqiao die?How could a hero like him, who is so cunning and elusive, be caught by an eagle and murdered by a villain?We can let our imagination run wild and make up all kinds of bizarre stories, but why should we add more things to the snake?Because the testimony of many parties is still there.After years of looking for a needle in a haystack, I have collected N versions of Wang Yaqiao's death——

In "The Biography of Mr. Dai Yunong", Fei Yunwen wrote not without slander:
The Chief Executive was assassinated...Xunming was instigated by professional murderer Wang Yaqiao.

After Mr. Dai found out the facts of the case...he successively sent Zheng Jiemin, Li Guochen, and Chen Zhiping to Hong Kong in the name of the Metropolitan Police Department and the Gendarmerie Headquarters. On the one hand, he hired British lawyers to conduct legal discussions; on the other hand, he presented strong witnesses , physical evidence, and filed a complaint in a Hong Kong court.After eight months, the lawsuit was settled and the three criminals, Yu Likui, Hu Dahai, and Zhou Shiping were extradited back to China and sent to the Jiangsu High Court for justice.But Wang Yaqiao still escaped without a trace.

Mr. Dai pays attention to thoroughness in his work, and he encourages his comrades: "Have a teachable attitude and a thorough approach." Wang Yaqiao is the leader of professional murderers, and if he is not eliminated, there will be troubles in the end.However, Wang Yaqiao had known Mr. Dai in the past, and since he had deliberately avoided him, it was by no means effective to make unannounced visits to weathered areas, casinos, and concessions, and had to find another way.When Mr. Dai found out that Yu Likui's wife, Mulan, had an abnormal relationship with Wang Yaqiao based on Chen Zhiping's detailed report on the extradition case in Hong Kong, he immediately went to Hong Kong in person to meet with Mulan. She has served her country well.Therefore, under Mr. Dai's planned arrangement, Mulan took the opportunity to contact Yaqiao.

Wang Yaqiao lived in Wuzhou, Guangxi, rented a villa by the Xijiang River, and had a speedboat, ready to escape at any time if there was news.At the beginning of November in the 25th year of the Republic of China, he thought that the rumors had passed, and he lived alone. Thinking of Mulan in Hong Kong, he specially sent someone to find Mulan and conveyed his pain of lovesickness, hoping that he could live together in Wuzhou; Mulan immediately reported to Mr. Dai secretly.At that time, Guangxi had a special environment, and it was impossible to deal with it by secret arrest.If there is a slight leak, the culprit slipped through the net and escaped, leaving future troubles.In order to safeguard national security, Mr. Dai sent Zheng Jiemin to Hong Kong to handle the matter.Five people including Wang Luqiao, Shi Kes, and Cen Jiazhuo, who were involved in the operation, followed Mulan to Wuzhou closely to enforce the law.

Mulan went to Wuzhou to reunite with Wang Yaqiao, and she was very courteous; after a long absence, Wang showed special affection to Mulan, no doubt about it.On November 21, Mulan had secretly contacted Wang Luqiao and others in advance. That night, while Wang Yaqiao was drunk, he cooperated with the inside and outside, and Wang Yaqiao secretly rectified the national law. While rushing to take Mulan, he boarded the preset speedboat by the river and drove away.

Taiwanese writer Liang Xiong's "Biography of Dai Li" also holds the same point of view.

The hero star fell, and Li Jishen, as a good friend during his lifetime, attended his funeral in person.Later, in "Lue Li", he described what he learned:

Wang Yaqiao was assassinated in Wuzhou.The story is like this: After the assassination of Wang Jingwei, Yu Likui was arrested in Hong Kong. Yu's wife was very young and was also arrested. Later, she was bought by the Hong Kong government. Yu's wife got in touch with Zheng Jiemin in Guangdong. She went to Wuzhou to find Wang Yaqiao , living in an inn by the river, and Yaqiao often went there to sit and sit.One night, she lured Tieqiao to a place and assassinated Tieqiao.The boat sent from Guangzhou was about to take Yu Likui's wife away.We were not vigilant enough at that time, it was really child's play.

In comparison, Wang Shuqiao's records are the most detailed.Because Dai Li could not catch Wang Yaqiao, he implicated Wang Shuqiao and threw him into prison, which was attacked by lawyers all over the country.Shen Junru, president of the China Lawyers Association and dean of the Shanghai Law School, took the case and accused the Nanjing government: "Wang Yaqiao committed a crime. What is the crime of his brother Wang Shuqiao? The brother should not be guilty of the crime and his brother." After many rescues, after the Xi'an Incident, Wang Shuqiao was arrested. Acquitted.Later, he worked as a lawyer in Shanghai and collected many historical materials about his brother.In "The Death of Wang Yaqiao", he said:
There are different records of Tieqiao's death, and there are many legends.I am Yaqiao's younger brother. I was still in prison when my elder brother died, and I was released from prison on the eve of the all-out war of resistance in 1937.He successively met with Zheng Baozhen, Wang Yaying, Cai Daohe, Xu Zhiyuan, Yu Yanong, Cai Keqiang, etc., and talked about the death of his elder brother.

(1936) In September, Yu Likui's youngest wife Yu Wanjun suddenly came to Wuzhou from Hong Kong and told Yaqiao that she had no life in Hong Kong with her children and would come to live in Wuzhou.Yaqiao thought that Yu Likui's family members would not be able to freeze and starve because Yu Likui was imprisoned, so he agreed to let her live in Wuzhou.

Yaying talked to me about Yu Wanjun many times. She said: "I was surprised when Wanjun came to Wuzhou. She kept saying that she had no life, and she didn't look like she had no money in what she was wearing. I said to your brother again and again: Wan Jun is not like being poor, you can’t meet her because you haven’t found out about her background in Hong Kong, but he hasn’t aroused any vigilance.”

Zhiyuan and Keqiang also talked about it many times, "Mr. Wan came to Wuzhou to give us and Baozhen a piece of good clothes for each of us, and he talked sweetly. We felt abnormal and told my husband many times: "Xiao Wanjun, please pay special attention. He Said: It is necessary to pay attention, but not to be overly suspicious, I am sorry for my friend if I am too suspicious.”

Every time Zheng Baozhen talked about this matter, he always regretted: "The ninth brother went to Wuzhou and lost his vigilance to the spies' penetration. He only paid attention to the movements of Li and Bai, and ignored the change of Xiao Wanjun. I told him again and again: "Mr. Wan is suspicious here. He always It means: Jun Jun is an old man for many years, so he will not change. Brother Ninth has always missed you, Yao Dou and Li Kui, so he has not been on guard against Jun Jun. Unexpectedly, Brother Nine died at the hands of Jun Wan!"

When Yu Wanjun returned to Hong Kong, Yaqiao gave her 10 yuan to move, and Xu Zhiyuan rented her a house on the bank of the Xijiang River. On October 17, Yu Wanjun went to live in Wuzhou. Yaqiao, Xu Zhiyuan and Cai Keqiang went to visit. The aunt Zhang who Yu employed in Hong Kong also came. Visit Li Kui, okay?" Yaqiao said, "Yes, I'll write a note and ask her to find a way to pass it to Li Kui."

On October 10, Yaqiao and Baozhen had dinner at Li Renren's house.In the afternoon, Yu Wanjun went to him and said, "Ninth Brother, Mama Zhang is going to Nanjing tomorrow, don't you want to write a note?" Yaqiao said to go at night.At this time, the spies were already hiding in Yu Wanjun's room.As soon as night fell, Yaqiao and Zheng Baozhen left Li Renren's house. Halfway there, Yaqiao said, "I'll go to Wanjun's place for a while, and I'll be right back." Baozhen said, "Do you want Keqiang and the others to come with you?" Wang said no, so he went to Yu's residence (located in the middle of Dadong Street in Wuzhou) alone, but was killed by the spies.

Agent Chen Yichuan originally wanted to break into Wang Yaqiao's group, but was discovered and was lurking in Hong Kong.After Yaqiao fled to Wuzhou, Dai Li couldn't find Wang's whereabouts, so he called Chen Yichuan to inquire.Chen only knew to go to Guangxi, but the exact place was unknown.Dai Ji ordered Chen and others to continue searching for Tieqiao's whereabouts in Hong Kong.When Yu Likui was arrested, Yu Wanjun and her children lived in Hong Kong, and Yaqiao provided the monthly living expenses. Therefore, Yu Wanjun knew that Yaqiao was in Wuzhou.Chen Yichuan got this clue, reported it to Dai Li, and Dai ordered him to do everything possible to buy him, and allocated 10 yuan.Yu Wanjun likes to dance, and Chen and other spies pretend to be Mr. Kuo, and they deal with Dancing every day, coming and going frequently, tempted by giving money and gifts, and finally buy Yu Wanjun with a lot of money.The secret agents immediately sent Yu Wanjun to Wuzhou to make a good way.Dai Li also ordered the special agent Chen Ziping to lead Wang Luqiao, Chen Yichuan and more than [-] people to take Yu Wanjun in a light motorboat, disguised as businessmen, and drive along the Xijiang River to Wuzhou, where they hid themselves and waited to hunt and kill Wang Yaqiao.

In the early morning of the 21st, after Yaqiao was killed, the Wuzhou Public Security Bureau notified Zheng Baozhen based on the address on Kuang Yingshu's business card on Yaqiao.Zheng was shocked to hear the bad news and rushed to the scene. Xu Zhiyuan, Wang Yaying, Cai Keqiang and others rushed to the scene one after another, weeping unceasingly.

Tieqiao was shot five times and three times, and his face was stripped. This is an illusion created by the spies, making people suspect that he was killed in love.On the same day, the Wuzhou City tabloid published: "Kuang Yingshu was killed because of a love triangle." Zheng Baozhen, Xu Zhiyuan and others immediately declared to the Public Security Bureau: "Kuang Yingshu is the anti-Chiang Wang Yaqiao. When the truth came out, the tabloids in Wuzhou immediately published the correction notice, and people from all walks of life in Wuzhou were shocked by the news.

At the scene of the accident, the glass on the table, teacups, teapots, etc. were broken, the glass was scattered all over the floor, chairs, stools and round tables were smashed, and Yaqiao's clothes were torn.In this situation, the secret agents wanted to tie up and take away Tieqiao. Tieqiao was so strong that he would fight with him.Wuzhou Public Security Bureau kept the scene for a long time.

Zheng Baozhen, Xu Zhiyuan, Cai Keqiang and Sui Yaqiao's wives and children bought coffins with tears in their eyes and buried them in Nizhuang, Wuzhou.Old friends Zhu Yunshan, He Minhun, Li Jishen, Li Renren and others went to mourn.Cai Taohe hid in Hong Kong and was shocked to learn of Yaqiao's death. On the 24th, he rushed to Wuzhou to inspect the scene of Yaqiao's death, and then went to cry before the funeral.On the tenth day, Yu Yanong and Zhang Xianting were allowed to accept Yaqiao by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in northern Shaanxi, and rushed back to Wuzhou to lead Yaqiao to Yan'an.Shocked by the news of Yaqiao's death, he rushed to Nizhuang's Yaqiao's spirit, fell to the ground and wept bitterly.

After the secret agent killed Yaqiao, he killed Yu Wanjun on the way back to Nanjing to silence him.

After I was released from prison in 1937, my wife Gong Shuwan visited Mr. Chang Hengfang and often said: "Yaqiao's death was definitely killed by Dai Li, but it was related to Li and Bai. Bai Chongxi was anti-communist. Yaqiao conspired to join the Communist Party and was discovered by Bai Fa. At that time, Li and Bai were planning to cooperate with Chiang Kai-shek. Dai Li learned that Yaqiao was in Wuzhou, so he secretly negotiated with Bai Chongxi to arrest Wang Yaqiao as a condition. Bai did not agree to arrest Wang Yaqiao in Guangxi to avoid public opinion. The management in Guangxi is extremely strict, and more than [-] special agents entered Wuzhou in motorboats. How can Bai not know the reason? The death of Yaqiao was caused by Bai Chongxi who opened the door and bowed to the robbers, pretending to be Dai Li. Don't forget this revenge." What Mr. Chang said is not without reason.

However, neither Wang Shuqiao, Li Jishen, nor Taiwanese writers Fei Yunwen and Liang Xiong were witnesses to Wang Yaqiao's death. Therefore, the mystery of Wang Yaqiao's death has yet to be revealed by the parties concerned.
