Xu enzeng

Xu enzeng

Xu enzeng (1896-1985) was born in Wuxing, Zhejiang Province. Born into a family of big landlords and big bourgeoisie, he was the director of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang.

Xu Xinliu, a famous Zhejiang plutocrat, is a close relative of Xu enzeng. Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu are Xu enzeng's cousins. Chen Lifu and Xu enzeng are classmates studying in the United States.

Xu en graduated from Shanghai Nanyang University in the early years, then studied in the United States, and worked as an electrical and Mechanical Engineer in Shanghai after returning home. After the April 12 counter revolutionary coup in 1927, he joined the central club organized by Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu. In 1931, he became the head of the investigation section of Zhongtong and became the actual person in charge of Zhongtong. The headquarters is located on the third floor of Zhengyuan industrial society near Xinjiekou, Nanjing. Xu enzeng is very resourceful and knows some psychology. He was promoted to Director in 1935. In August 1938, the Bureau of investigation and statistics of the Central Executive Committee (hereinafter referred to as the central unified Bureau) was established as the director of the Bureau. Later, he was removed from his post because of his involvement in smuggling along the Sino Indian Myanmar border.

Personal experience

After the April 12 counter revolutionary coup in 1927, Xu en joined the central Club (CC Department) organized by Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu.

In 1928, Xu en was the chief of the general affairs section of the Organization Department of the Kuomintang Central Committee.

In the winter of 1929, Chen Lifu appointed Xu enzeng to Nanjing as director of the investigation section of the Kuomintang Party headquarters and director of Shanghai radio administration. Xu enzeng began his career as a spy against the Communist Party and the people. Xu captured Gu Shunzhang, the person in charge of the special branch of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and successfully led him to defection and surrender, which made Jiang master a lot of valuable materials and thus destroyed many organizations of the Communist Party of China. It made Chiang Kai Shek look at Xu with new eyes.

What makes Xu enzeng more "outstanding" is that for a period of time, in the second group (later changed to the second division) of the "central unification" bureau, the traitors from the group leader to the small spy were all traitors of the Communist Party of China, among which the more "famous" were Chen Jianzhong, Du Heng, Guo Qianhui, Zhou Guangya, Xian Taiqi, Wang Weili, fan Zhenzhong, Zou Chunsheng, etc. Inside the central unification, traitors from the Chinese Communist Party account for a large proportion. Even Fei Xia, Xu's concubine, is also a traitor from the Chinese Communist Party!

From 1929 to February 1945, Xu en was the leader of the central United Bureau of the Kuomintang. Xu Qingfu, the elder of the same clan, was an enlightening master of Jiang Zhongzheng, so he tried his best to win over him. After his promotion, Xu brought over Chen brothers, the leader of the "CC Department".

In 1936, the Bureau of investigation and statistics of the Military Commission was established with Chen Lifu as its director. Xu en was the director of the first division of the Bureau, and Dai Li was the director of the second division. This is also the reason why people later called the special agent of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China as one division and the special agent of the military committee as two divisions.

In August 1938, the Bureau of investigation and statistics of the central executive committee of the Chinese Kuomintang (hereinafter referred to as the central unified Bureau) was established. Xu en served as deputy director, Zhu Jiahua, Secretary General of the party Department of the Central Committee, he Yaozu, former director of the military unified Bureau, and Dai Li, deputy director. However, unlike other bureaus, the personnel power and economic power of the two bureaus are in the hands of the deputy directors. Even Chiang Kai Shek's orders to the two bureaus only contain the words "Xu, deputy director of the central unified Bureau, en Zeng". In this way, the director of the two bureaus has actually become a fictitious title, and the real director is actually the deputy director. So Xu enzeng officially became the head of the special agent of Zhongtong.

But the relationship between Zhu Jiahua and Xu enzeng is not the same as that between Dai Li and he Yaozu. He Yaozu had no right to work. Dai Li was often in front of Chiang Kai Shek. He could ask for instructions directly face to face. Even if he Yaozu knew about it later, it was useless. It could even be said that he Yaozu's orders had little effect on the juntong.

Zhu Jiahua was a first-class celebrity of Chiang Kai Shek at that time. Zhu Jiahua also had many direct connections in the Bureau, such as Liu cixiao, Secretary of the Bureau, Li Guangzhuo, director of the accounting office, Zheng yaopan, director of the statistics department, Guo Zijun, chairman of the Training Committee of the Bureau, and Zhu Jiahua himself was also a member of the national government, President of the examination institute, President of the Academia Sinica, Secretary General of the party Department of the Central Committee, and director of the custody of Sino British boxer fund The titles of chairman of the association, President of the China Germany Association, and President of the association of students studying in France, Belgium and Switzerland made Xu enzeng even more nervous. In addition, Dai Jitao's support was enough to ensure Zhu Jiahua's position in the central unified Bureau. However, Zhu Jiahua himself didn't care much about the central unified Bureau, which made Xu enzeng sit firmly in the "golden chair". Only when signing the order, Zhu Jiahua and Xu enzeng signed and signed it.

member of family

Xu enzeng's mother, who lived in Shanghai or Wuxing for a long time, never came to Nanjing to live on Xu. In his early years, his servants Zhang Tinggui, Guo Wenhao and his maid Gao Baozhen all became the special agents of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and worked as mimeograph or other affairs in the Bureau headquarters. They sometimes call Xu "young master" in private conversation. After the outbreak of the Anti Japanese War, Xu's mother stayed in Shanghai and died in 1941.

Xu en had three wives who were still alive when the mainland was liberated in 1949. At first, their relationship was good. Xu's wife always lived with Xu's mother. Since about 1928, their relationship deteriorated. Later, Xu enzeng stopped living at home or living with Zhang. But Xu's wife has always lived in Xu's family, eating fast and chanting Buddhism all day long, and seldom bothered Xu. Zhang had a daughter who lived with her mother and seldom met Xu en.

Xu enzeng's second wife, Wang Suqing, was born in Northeast China. She was strong, hot-blooded and lustful. She used to be Xu enzeng's friend's wife. A friend went to study in England and asked Xu to take care of him. Shortly after his friend went abroad, Xu en lived with Wang in 1929. Wang gave birth to one year and had four or five children. Later, when his friend came back to China, he saw that the rice was ripe, and he was frightened by Xu enzeng's power, so he had to swallow his anger and stop asking.

Xu enzeng's third wife, Fei Xia, once studied in the Soviet Union. She is a revolutionary traitor with political ambition. Before marrying Xu enzeng, he took part in the work of China Soviet semimonthly under the leadership of Xu enzeng. After marrying Xu enzeng, he often went in and out of the Central Bureau. Although Fei Xia did not formally participate in the organization of the secret service of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, he actually participated in the activities of the secret service of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. She often mingled with Lu Xiaodao, Chen Yiyun and other members of the KMT's alternate Executive Committee. When she became a legislator of the Kuomintang in 1948, she frequently traveled between Nanjing and Shanghai, and her reactionary activities became more active. At the beginning of 1949, Fang Tai, chairman of the Shanghai municipal Party Department of the Kuomintang, organized the so-called "Shanghai Public Emergency Mobilization Committee". Fei Xia served as a member of the Committee and kept clamoring for "survival with Shanghai". On the eve of liberation, he fled to Taiwan with Xu enzeng.

Xu enzeng and Fei Xiasheng have four or five children. Their eldest son, born in 1939, has a clear breast name. Fei Xia's mother is an old-fashioned housewife. Since 1938, she has been living in the Xu family. All her children are taken care of by her.

Inside story of falling out of favor

Chiang Kai Shek always employed people based on the principle of "talents and slaves". He thought he had cultivated the most loyal running dog to Xu enzeng, the head of the secret service of the central United Bureau. In terms of secret service work, Xu enzeng did not waste his talent. He led the central government for a long time, killed Communists, and made great contributions to Chiang Kai Shek and his rule. Chiang Kai Shek was also extremely satisfied with his loyal servitude.

In 1945, the 15th year when Xu en once held the leading position of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Chiang Kai Shek suddenly issued a hand order that "Xu en Zeng should be removed from his post and never be employed". The warrant was issued on January 30 and the handover ceremony was held at 9 am on February 1. Xu enzeng lost his most important position as deputy director of the central United Administration Bureau, and his speed was amazing.

In May 1945, he was also defeated as a member of the Kuomintang Central Committee. At that time, the general public felt puzzled about Xu enzeng's dismissal. At one time, the central United Bureau was so flustered that it could not even carry out its work.

In fact, the reason is very simple, some of his actions caused serious dissatisfaction of Chiang Kai Shek himself. According to the juntong report, Xu enzeng's family in Chengdu loaned money at usury, engaged in speculation, wantonly speculated, smuggled and sold private goods, and bullied others, which made many people suffer.

"The president is dictatorial, is it right or wrong"

In 1941, Xu en was recommended by Wu Tiecheng and appointed as the Vice Minister of the Ministry of communications, which was specially summoned by Chiang Kai Shek.

What really caused Chiang Kai Shek's displeasure was after Xu en was concurrently the Vice Minister of the Ministry of communications. Before 1941, Chiang Kai Shek always thought that the work of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was ok, but in the later period, he was far behind the military unity in anti Communist activities. It was because Xu enzeng was not willing to concentrate on secret service work as Dai Li did.

During a meeting of a plenary session of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang, a slogan was suddenly found in the party headquarters of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang, which read: "the president is dictatorial, is he right?". Xu en did not dare to neglect and immediately reported to Chiang Kai Shek. Chiang Kai Shek ordered Xu enzeng to investigate thoroughly and deal with it severely. Xu en had mobilized a huge secret service network, which took a long time to solve the case, and he was unable to explain it to Chiang Kai Shek. This even aroused Chiang Kai Shek's anger. He once again sternly scolded Xu enzeng: "it's really our duty to prevent such things from happening in our heart and soul. We can neither prevent them in advance nor find out what happened afterwards."

Factional strife and intrigue

In addition, the departments of military and political science and so on have been fighting with the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, making small reports in front of Jiang from time to time. Chiang Kai Shek did not trust Xu for a long time, so he arranged sun Zijun and Gu Jianzhong to contain him. This also violated Chiang Kai Shek's practice of appointing only one deputy director in the secret service system to take charge of his duties. It can be seen that Chiang Kai Shek was not at ease with Xu enzeng. With the abandonment of Er Chen, Xu enzeng's downfall is inevitable.

Smuggling goods and materials makes a country rich

It eventually led to Chiang Kai Shek's criticism of Xu en and Zeng Ji
