Maturity under the beating of Akasaka Detention Center
Late at night in September, 1927, 17-year-old Liao Chengzhi studied German hard in a residential building in Akasaka, Tokyo. He promised his mother He Xiangning that he would go to Germany to study technology.
With a violent knock on the door, a large group of Japanese policemen rushed into the bedroom.
Liao Chengzhi is from China, and there is a river of blood. After the search, several Japanese policemen walked out around him. In front of the police car, Liao Chengzhi saw her sister wake up, and a classmate who had just spoken in her room had been taken to the front of the car. He knew that his sister had really contacted many people and started a student movement. He tried to run forward, but was taken to the car behind him.
When the police car drove into Akasaka Detention Center in Tokyo, Liao Chengzhi was pushed into a dark room by a man. He knows that this is what his parents always say: arrest.
Early the next morning, Liao Chengzhi was taken into the interrogation room, and four or five policemen took turns interrogating him and Liao Mengxing why they came to Japan. Is it a * * * production party? Who are you dating? Liao Chengzhi speaks pure Japanese and answers them one by one. Faced with a child of 17 years old, four or five policemen couldn't ask any questions, became angry from embarrassment, slapped and kicked with nailed boots. Liao Chengzhi was beaten for the first time in his life.
A month later, due to insufficient evidence, Liao Chengzhi was released and Liao Mengxing was deported. Before he left, Liao Mengxing told his younger brother, "You are really alone in the future. Be sure to remember your parents' words and take care of yourself. "
Diwa police station invited dignitaries to play with gifts.
From 65438 to 0928, Liao Chengzhi entered Waseda University, where his father Liao Zhongkai studied in his early years. Here, Liao Chengzhi, who left the Kuomintang because of the anger of Chiang Kai-shek's "April 12th" coup, wanted to find a way different from the Kuomintang. He began to systematically study the original works of Marxism-Leninism, carefully compared the Three People's Principles with the productism, and wanted to understand a lot of truth. Introduced by Zheng Hanxian, a foreign student, he participated in the "Institute of Social Sciences" organized by the Tokyo Special Branch of China's * * * Production Party.
1928 1, Liao Chengzhi was expelled from school for taking part in too many social activities and having a criminal record.
In May, the "Ji 'nan Massacre" spread to Japan, and Tokyo Teke cooperated with local communities to launch a struggle in China. The Japanese government immediately arrested the members of the "special branch" and deported them. Liao Chengzhi organized overseas students to contact, distribute leaflets and picket, and was soon taken into the detention center of Diwa police station by Japanese agents.
A month passed, and Liao Chengzhi, who was neither hard nor soft, was transferred to Tokyo police headquarters. The leader of Tegao Company continued to interrogate: "Which Japanese did you associate with?"
"I live in Japan, and there are too many people coming and going, every day."
"There must be a specific name?"
"Changzhi, Michelle Ye."
As if a bomb had been thrown into the interrogation room, the interrogation ended hastily.
Hiroshi Nagano Ye is an influential figure in Japan. Liao and He Xiangning had frequent contacts with him and took Liao Chengzhi to see him.
This is very busy. Special high-tech department of Tokyo Police Department. Some called Nagano to inquire about the implementation, some reported to their superiors urgently, and some came back to Liao Chengzhi to euphemistically express "friendship". On the same day, Liao Chengzhi was respectfully escorted out of the gate of the police station by several agents.
After walking a few blocks, Liao Chengzhi found a spy watching behind him. He went to Lian Xiao several times and went straight to Changzhi Prefecture, Michelle Ye, and really thanked him for his inquire.
Expulsion from Holland and Germany forever.
/kloc-in the winter of 0/928, He Xiangning got a quota for a child to study in Germany at public expense. The German producer was the leading goose of the third international at that time. Liao Chengzhi, who just became party member in China, went to be the executive member of the German International Seamen's Union, and the Central Committee took this opportunity to let him transfer to Germany to produce party member.
193 1 At the beginning of the year, Liao Chengzhi came to Rotterdam, the Netherlands, to teach English to China seafarers sent by the International Seafarers' General Union. He specially produced an illustrated picture book magazine Liao Edition, which included revolutionary trends in various countries around the world, domestic news in China, and various issues of concern to seafarers.
One night in early June, Liao Chengzhi was taken away by the Dutch police at his residence and put into Rotterdam police detention center because the contractor reported to the Kuomintang consulate in the Netherlands. Sentence after six weeks: deportation.
Back in Hamburg, China Seamen's Union, Liao Chengzhi still published publications and drew cartoons to encourage China seafarers to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests, and "Little Liao" became more and more famous.
In September, China seafarers' equal pay strike won, and Liao Chengzhi's residence was searched by German police again. Although no evidence was found, he was "expelled from Hamburg forever".
On the beach, the British patrol was fooled.
1932, Liao Chengzhi returned to Shanghai via the Soviet Union and served as the propaganda minister of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and the party secretary of the All-China Seafarers' Union. At this time, the Sino-Japanese War between Shanghai and Songsong had already started, and he ran among sailors, overseas Chinese and foreign friends. In order not to bring trouble to mother, but also for their own safety, although mother and son are close at hand, they can't meet each other.
Two weeks after returning to Shanghai, March 28th was the day when Luo Dengxian, Party Secretary of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, presided over the meeting. I didn't know that Gu, the head of the Shanghai secret service, had defected, and the Shanghai underground party was facing extinction. Arrange the transfer of other comrades of General Hai. Inexperienced Liao Chengzhi ran back to the joint site to find out, and ended up in the net of the British police.
Liao Chengzhi used his brain to call the British police and said that he would tell them about a "big fish". The police happily followed him to "catch fish" and followed him to the front of He Xiangning Mansion in the French Concession. At the sight of Liao Chengzhi's handcuffs, He Xiangning understood everything. Liao Chengzhi took the opportunity to say something in her mother's ear that others couldn't understand: "I live at home, and you asked me to buy tea for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition."
The next day, He Xiangning called the country's military chief and said that he was willing to "stay behind bars with his son, but he didn't want to stay behind bars in foreign countries and asked to be sent to China". Shortly after the telegram was sent, news came that the authorities would transfer Liao Chengzhi to Nanking. Despite a heart attack, He Xiangning asked someone to lift himself into the car with a cane chair. Accompanied by Liu Yazi, he went to the Shanghai Public Security Bureau and sat in the yard with a cold wind.
Things got ugly. Under the pressure of all parties, Chiang Kai-shek had to let Liao Chengzhi go.
Long March in chains
Liao Chengzhi, who has been released from prison, is obviously unfit to stay in Shanghai. On the recommendation of, why did he change his name and come to Sichuan-Shaanxi Soviet area?
With straightforward humor and absolute trust in his comrades-in-arms, Liao Chengzhi didn't want to paint himself with protective colors. By the time he realized it, it was too late. The fuse was a belt with thousands of stitches when mother left, which contained 100 yuan and a gold ring for her son's emergency use. Liao Chengzhi wears it every day and never washes it. His belt became black and dirty. Zheng's comrades jokingly threw it away for him. Liao Chengzhi grabbed the belt, talked about the origin, and finally sighed: "For the sake of the mother of the world, I want the revolution to the end."
The story of the belt spread, and Zhang patted his thigh: It's time to wipe out Liao Chengzhi. Zhang hated Liao Chengzhi because Liao Chengzhi brought a letter a year ago, in which the Central Committee criticized him for giving up the old liberated areas. Zhang decided that Liao Chengzhi was undercover sent by the central authorities. Besides, "Sangmenxing" always puts forward different opinions because of the recent "counter-revolutionaries" in the border area.
At his behest, Liao Chengzhi was detained as a spy sent by Chiang Kai-shek for two reasons: "It remains to be seen whether he came from the white area and was arrested or whether he was released for treason"; "With the gold ring, the central bank has another deposit, which is the activity fund of the Kuomintang."
Liao Chengzhi was held in solitary confinement, but his hands were never idle: painting portraits of leaders, carving wax boards and designing base banknotes were all his business, and no one took his place as a foreign affairs translator for Red China News Agency.
1September, 935, Zhang openly raised the banner of division and went south. Liao Chengzhi, who was isolated for more than a year, said in despair: "There is only one Party Central Committee, and the Red Army cannot divide and rule." Zhang no longer cares about * * * the internationally produced "Liao Gongzi", and announced on the spot at a fairly large general general party membership meeting that he was a counter-revolutionary and would be expelled from the Party forever.
Because of Zhang's stubbornness, the Red Fourth Army had to cross the grassland three times, and Liao Chengzhi entered Gansu and Ningxia with the troops. On the edge of the Yellow River, he met Zhou Enlai by accident. Liao Chengzhi was hesitating when Zhou Enlai stepped forward, shook his hand tightly and left.
That evening, Liao Chengzhi was taken to a big office, where many leaders, such as Zhang, Zhu De and Liu Bocheng, sat very seriously. Zhou Enlai stared at Liao Chengzhi and asked with an expression, "Liao Chengzhi, do you realize your mistake?"
Liao Chengzhi was about to defend himself, only to find Zhu De winking at himself behind Zhang's back. He understood, lowered his head and whispered "wrong".
"Changed is a good comrade! Chairman Zhang still welcomes you. " Zhou Enlai's words defined Liao Chengzhi's "mistake". Zhang had already announced the execution of Liao Chengzhi that night, but now he had to order "to see what would happen".
Soon, Liao Chengzhi regained his freedom, left the Red Fourth Front Army and resumed his party membership at 1936 and 12.
Happy life in Majiazhou concentration camp
1942 In May, Liao Chengzhi's "secret rescue" of cultural celebrities and the practice of directly transferring overseas anti-Japanese donations to Yan 'an without going through the Kuomintang greatly annoyed Chiang Kai-shek, and transferred Liao Chengzhi to Central China and detained him in Majiazhou concentration camp in Taihe, Jiangxi.
In the days of dancing with death, Liao Chengzhi arranged a colorful prison life for himself: singing in the morning, painting and writing poems after dinner, and reading books. A surveillance spy found out from a small hole that Liao Chengzhi was dancing alone-directing ants to carry rice grains.
Yao Baoshan, a guard who delivers meals to Liao Chengzhi every day, sympathizes with party member, sympathizes with progressives and admires Liao Chengzhi from the bottom of his bones. One day in September, 1942, he came in to deliver food and told Liao Chengzhi in a low voice that he was going to Yan 'an and asked him to help him post letters to his relatives.
Liao Chengzhi's calm heart suddenly turned. He didn't fully trust Yao Baoshan at that time, but it was an opportunity. If the news gets out, the party organizations and their families will know something about him. He sat quietly for a long time and wrote two farewell poems and a letter from home. But the letter to the Party organization and Zhou Enlai took nearly a month to complete. "I hope you believe that Xiao Liao didn't disgrace the glorious tradition until he died! The rest, if there is an opportunity, can face Chen. If there is no such opportunity, forget it. I will say goodbye to you. Long live the China * * * production party! "
In his cell, the traitor came, the woman came, and Jiang Jingguo came to sleep with him at night, but it was all in vain. In an isolated environment, Liao Chengzhi spent more than three years.
Chongqing Geleshan lambasted Chiang Kai-shek.
/kloc-in the winter of 0/944, due to the letter from Yao Baoshan in He Xiangning, Chiang Kai-shek, who could no longer conceal it, ordered Liao Chengzhi to be escorted to Chongqing by special plane, but he was thrown into the scum hole in Geleshan, accompanied by military agents all day.
1945 In September, Mao Zedong came to Chongqing for negotiations, and Chiang Kai-shek tried to persuade Liao Chengzhi, giving Mao Zedong an embarrassment. So Liao Chengzhi put on his new clothes for the first time in more than three years and appeared in Chiang Kai-shek's official residence in Chongqing. Chiang Kai-shek pretended to be charming: "Your mother is still waiting for you outside. Can you treat your parents like this? You know Chinese and Western, and I want to keep you around, but ... "Liao Chengzhi immediately interrupted him:" No common goal, no common goal. "
1946 65438+1On the morning of October 22nd, several military agents ordered him to pack up and get up. Liao Chengzhi thought that he had scolded Chiang Kai-shek, and he was really dying. Unexpectedly, the car stopped in front of a building of China People's Political Consultative Conference, and he was taken into an office.
While wondering, someone hurried upstairs, followed by a cough, which is unique to Zhou Enlai. The door opened and Zhou Enlai stepped forward, sobbing "Little Liao" and holding Liao Chengzhi in her arms. Liao Chengzhi, who hasn't shed a tear for four years, cried with Zhou Enlai in her arms.
Liao Chengzhi realized that on the day he was secretly kidnapped four years ago, he personally sent Joe to Shaoguan to inform him of the transfer, but it was too late. Besides, the party has never forgotten him. At the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), he was elected as the first of the 33 alternate members of the Central Committee with the highest number of votes. After the Chongqing negotiations, Zhou Enlai listed Liao Chengzhi, Ye Ting and other senior cadres and generals in the first batch of release lists.
Liao Chengzhi followed Zhou Enlai home-No.263, Zhongshan Road, Chongqing, the resident of China delegation. Tong, our confidential secretary, took two precious photos: one is Liao Chengzhi holding Sister Deng, holding a homemade bamboo tube in her hand and smiling happily. The other is a "prisoner" portrait of Liao Chengzhi with long hair and moustache, as a witness of the past four years.
On April 8, the central government decided to let Liao Chengzhi, Ye Ting, Wang Ruofei, Bo Gu Kailai, Deng Fa and others who had just been released return to Yan 'an. When I left, Liao Chengzhi stayed because of something. When Liao Chengzhi learned of the plane crash, he didn't feel lucky for himself. He wrote in his eulogy: "They will never come back, leaving only their words-what they said, what they didn't finish, these words will always stay in my heart ..."
Clear-headed, self-connected brain.
After liberation, Liao Chengzhi has been devoted to the diplomacy of the new China, especially the Sino-Japanese friendship. Foreign friends nicknamed him "Miaoliao".
After the "Cultural Revolution" began, Liao Chengzhi suddenly became the object of struggle between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Returned Overseas Chinese Federation, and it was burned, smashed and bombed everywhere. Zhou Enlai nasty, Liao Chengzhi live in Zhongnanhai, concentrate on writing "check". Liao Chengzhi, who has always been witty and laughing all the way, always obeys the orders of the Prime Minister, stays indoors, studies and never gives the Prime Minister any trouble.
However, Zhou Enlai's situation is becoming more and more difficult. Liao Chengzhi, who suffered from severe heart disease, was finally "transferred" from Zhongnanhai to the Foreign Affairs Office by the rebels. After two years and eight months of "guardianship", only the Complete Works of Mao Zedong and Lu Xun belong to him. Relying solely on memory, he recalled his emotional work for many years in beautiful fine print in the blank of the title page of Lu Xun's article. People who are full of love and pursuit still have the Sea of all of my heart and live a chic life. He not only did this himself, but also tried his best to help those who were "imprisoned" together and survived the persecution of Lin Biao and the Gang of Four.
This is Liao Chengzhi! Happy Liao Chengzhi forever!
