Huang Jun

Huang Jun

Huang Jun (1891-1937) was born in Fuzhou, Fujian Province. He was a famous politician and traitor in the period of the Republic of China. He studied with his grandfather when he was young. He was known as "child prodigy". He was well-known with his fellow countrymen Chen Baochen and Yan Fu, and was also known by Liang Qichao. In 1902, he went to Beijing to study in Beijing translation school.

In the early years of the Republic of China, he studied in Japan and had always had contacts with the Japanese. After returning to China, he served in the Beiyang government. When Liang Qichao was finance minister, he was employed as a secretary. After the collapse of the Beiyang government, he joined the executive yuan of the Nanjing National Government.

On July 27, 1937, Chen Shaokuan, the Minister of the navy of the national government, was ordered to present a report at the Executive Yuan meeting to implement the plan of sinking a ship in the Jiangyin section of the Yangtze River to block the channel. Huang Jun was the record of the Executive Yuan meeting at that time. That night, he disclosed the matter to the Japanese side, and Chiang Kai Shek strictly ordered a thorough investigation. Gu Zhenglun, commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang gendarmerie, found that Huang Jun was highly suspected. Later, Gu Zhenglun plotted against Lianhua, Huang Jun's maid, and cracked the case.

On August 26, 1937, Huang Jun was sentenced to death for treason and executed publicly.

The success of Mei Lanfang, a famous Peking Opera master, is closely related to Huang Jun, who is particularly good at learning and often consults with Mei Lanfang's plays and deals with copywriting. It was he who explained that period of history thoroughly in farewell my concubine, and Mei Lanfang's role as concubine Yu was superb. After Huang Jun's death, Qi Rushan was promoted to be Mei Lanfang's main screenwriter.

Life of the characters

Early experience

Huang Jun, named Qiuyue and zhewei, was born in a scholarly family in Fuzhou. Before his execution, Huang Jun was a senior confidential secretary of the executive yuan of the national government, which was second only to the Secretary General. On August 26, 1937, he was sentenced to death for treason. He was the first traitor to be executed in the Anti Japanese war.

Huang Jun studied with his grandfather when he was young. He could read and write at the age of 4 and could write poetry at the age of 7. In 1902, Huang Jun came to Beijing to study in the Beijing translation school. Because of his erudition and talent, Chen Baochen, Yan Fu, Lin Shu and other Fujian fellow villagers in Beijing appreciated him. Later, he was known to Liang Qichao, the political giant at that time, as a talented man. He also got close to fan Zengxiang, Fu Zengxiang, Luo Yinggong and other leaders in the poetic world, and benefited a lot.

Huang Jun's cultural attainments became more and more sophisticated due to the esteem of the great masters of these times. He was especially good at following celebrities. As a result, he was able to grasp some political and Literary Anecdotes of the former Qing Dynasty. He also collected many secret treasures from the former people's diaries, letters and telegrams, and was able to write a book named Hua Sui Ren Sheng An Zhi Yi, which was once published in the central current affairs weekly It's serialized in the annals. Most of the length of the book is about many historical events that happened in the late Qing Dynasty since the Opium War. All the materials are detailed and complete. People praised it at that time for "extensive quotation and accurate judgment".

Traitor case

In the early years of the Republic of China, Huang Jun studied in Japan, studied in Waseda University, and worked in the warlord government in Beijing after returning home. In 1935, Huang Jun was quoted by Lin Sen, a fellow Marquis of Fujian Province, a senior member of the alliance, and then chairman of the national government. He went south from Beijing and served as a senior confidential secretary of the Executive Yuan in the Nanjing government. He won the trust of Wang Jingwei, the Premier of the Executive Yuan, and was able to attend the highest military and political meetings of the national government.

After the September 18th Incident, Japan gradually accelerated its pace of aggression against China. All kinds of Japanese spies go deep into China to spy on intelligence, and Nanjing is naturally the top target of Japanese spies. The headquarters of the Japanese spy is located in the Japanese Consulate General in Nanjing. Consul General Xu Mo graduated from Japan's famous Waseda University in his early years. He is a veteran spy. Under the cover of a diplomat, he commands Japanese spies and ronins, bribes Chinese traitors and hooligans, and collects all kinds of information by any means. He focused on Huang Jun, his classmate at Waseda University and confidential secretary of the executive yuan of the Nanjing government.

Huang Jun has talent but no virtue. He pursues personal enjoyment blindly. His life is extremely extravagant and has no personality and integrity. Huang Sheng, his eldest son, and he are like birds of a feather. He also studied in Japan and worked in the Ministry of foreign affairs of the national government after returning home.

Huang Jun and his son soon became traitors and spies. After being dragged into the water, Huang Jun bribed some frustrated Pro Japanese senior military and political personnel from the General Staff Headquarters, the Ministry of the Navy and the Ministry of military and political affairs to form a spy group, which opened the door for the Japanese to steal secrets.

Before long, a terrible tragedy happened: the leakage of Jiangyin fortress.

One day in August 1937, Chiang Kai Shek suddenly received a news to his astonishment. More than 20 Japanese warships and merchant ships, which were sailing and berthing in the ports of Nanjing, Jiujiang, Wuhan, Yichang and Chongqing along the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, suddenly rushed across the Jiangyin River and sped towards the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. At the same time, the Japanese expatriates in Nanjing, Wuhan, Chongqing and other places suddenly stopped all their activities and hurried down with the Japanese merchant ships.

Just a few days ago, Chiang Kai Shek convened a very confidential military meeting with senior generals of the "Military Commission.". At the meeting, it was discussed and approved that in order to prevent the Japanese army from occupying North China, they would go straight to Shanxi, Shaanxi and Sichuan, then encircle the rear area of the national government from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and decided to send the navy to blockade the Jiangyin fortress. Such a major military operation has not yet been carried out. This sudden change naturally stunned Chiang Kai Shek.

Who is the insider? It depressed Chiang Kai Shek. However, before he had time to arrange the investigation, the leak happened again! Chiang Kai Shek, who was in Nanjing, was going to Shanghai to personally supervise the war. However, because the Japanese army had already tightly controlled the railway and highway between Nanjing and Shanghai, Chiang Kai Shek was unable to walk. Finally, Chiang accepted Bai Chongxi's suggestion and decided to take the car of British ambassador to China Xu Gesen to Shanghai.

Because Britain was a neutral country at that time, the British ambassador's car had a British flag, and the Japanese would not bomb. The next day, because of a sudden emergency, Chiang Kai Shek changed his plan to go to Shanghai with Xu Gesen.

Xu Gesen's special car with British flag was chased and bombed by two Japanese military planes in turn. The car finally turned upside down. The time of the incident was just over 10 days since the last Jiangyin Fort leak.

Obviously, the Japanese got the information in advance that Chiang Kai Shek was going to take Xu Gesen's special car to Shanghai. Only a few high-level military and political figures and Huang Jun, confidential secretary of the Executive Yuan, knew about Chiang Kai Shek's plan.

One wave is not flat, another wave is rising. Chiang Kai Shek just got away with it, and danger hit him again. On September 4, 1937, another "Premier's memorial week", Chiang Kai Shek was bound to come.

When we were preparing for Chiang Kai Shek in Nanjing Central Military Academy, we found that two suspects had mixed into the Academy, so we carried out an emergency search. The two suspects had no choice but to run away by car. The police checked the number and personnel of the cars registered at the entrance of the military academy that day, and finally found that the cars used by the two suspects when they fled were the cars of Huang Jun, confidential secretary of the Executive Yuan.

It was this case that made Huang Jun show his Fox's tail.

A series of major secret divulging incidents made Chiang Kai Shek furious. He strictly ordered him to dig out the hidden traitor Gang as soon as possible to eliminate evil. Gu Zhenglun, commander of the Kuomintang gendarmerie and commander of the Nanjing garrison, is in charge of eliminating traitors. Gu Zhenglun locked in Huang Jun and secretly set up a "special group for investigating Huang Jun's spy case" to carry out the work.

Gu Zhenglun and his subordinates set a trap for Huang Jun Group to drill in. Sure enough, Huang Jun and others were deceived. At the same time, Huang Sheng, his eldest son, and more than ten members of his party were executed.

Folk saying

There is a folk saying that Huang Jun was a traitor because he was a Japanese woman named nanzaoyunzi (1909-1942). Nanzaoyunzi (1909-1942) was an agent directly under the Japanese base camp during the Japanese invasion of China and was known as the first female spy in Japan. Nanzaoyunzi was born in Shanghai in 1909. His father, nanzaojiro, was an old spy. He was arrested for Huang Jun's case, then bribed a jailer to escape, participated in the formation of No. 76 in Shanghai, and was finally assassinated by the juntong. However, there are still doubts about the authenticity of nanzaoyunzi. Some scholars believe that there is no such person in history.

On July 28, 1937, Chiang Kai Shek presided over the highest meeting of the national government at Xiaolu, Zhongshan Mausoleum in Nanjing. He decided to adopt the strategy of "controlling speed with speed" and "winning the first chance". Before the Japanese army's action, he chose Jiangyin, the narrowest water area in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, sank ships in the river, blocked the channel, and then cut off the Yangtze River route with naval vessels and cross-strait artillery fire. In this way, 70 Japanese ships and more than 6000 Japanese Marines in Jiujiang, Wuhan and Yichang in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River can be encircled and annihilated. The meeting was a top secret, and was recorded by Chen Bulei, Secretary of the attendant room, and Huang Jun, Secretary of the Executive Yuan.

Huang Jun immediately informed nanzaoyunzi of this top secret information after the meeting. Nanzaoyunzi quickly transferred the information to major general Nakamura, the military officer of the Japanese Embassy, who directly reported it to the headquarters of the Japanese general staff by secret telegram. As a result, just when Chiang Kai Shek issued the blockade order, the Japanese Marines took the lead and rushed eastward on August 6 and 7 to cross the Jiangyin River and withdraw from the Yangtze River Estuary. The military plan to blockade Jiangyin fortress went bankrupt.

On August 12, Chiang Kai Shek planned to deliver a speech at an "extended premier Memorial week" of the Central Military Academy. But before the ceremony started, two Japanese spies took a car to sneak into the military academy in an attempt to spy on intelligence and assassinate Chiang Kai Shek. The two spies fled in a car immediately after they were found.

After the outbreak of the Anti Japanese war in Songhu on August 13, Chiang Kai Shek made several attacks
