Wake up（280）

Nan Yangsheng, a Ph.D. in psychology from the Central Plains College of Humanities, returned to his hometown after completing his studies, but he couldn't find a job. Later, Wanru, a former schoolmate who had a crush on him, successfully obtained a visa to Hong Kong for him through her friend Cheng Yenan, who specializes in immigration visa intermediaries.

After Nan Yangsheng arrived in Hong Kong, accompanied by Wanru, he went to Cheng Yenan's house and met Cheng Yenan's father Cheng Jinghan and mother Nan Luda. To his surprise, Nan Luda's elder brother was actually his biological father Nan Lutong.

The mother who adopted Nanyangsheng was He Jiafu's adopted daughter. He Jiafu's comrade-in-arms, old Chinese doctor Chai Jianhua, also told Nanyangsheng that the three brothers and sisters were also adopted by their mother and grandfather. Now Chai Jianhua has provided photos through Nan Luda, which is a group photo of Nan Luda and Nan Lutong's brother and sister, confirming that Nan Luda's brother Nan Lutong is the husband of He Jiafu's adopted daughter He Zhongmiao, Ade.

When Nanyangsheng fell into confusion, his biological father Nan Lutong brought a young man, accompanied by Wanru, to Chengyenan's house and visited Nanyangsheng who was temporarily living in Cheng's family.

Nan Yangsheng didn't seem very excited when he saw his biological father Nan Lutong, because all this happened very suddenly.

Nan Lutong looked a bit old, but he also looked healthy and strong. Nan Lutong pointed to the young man beside him and said to Nan Yangsheng, this is my son Nan Siqin. He should be your brother.

Nan Siqin went to Nanyang Sheng, hugged him, and called "Brother".

At this time, Cheng Jinghan and his wife Nan Tongda also came. The members of the Cheng family and the Nan family are all gathered.

During the chat, Nan Tongda talked about his experience of fleeing from the mainland to Hong Kong. It was a frightening time.

In Nan Yangsheng's childhood memories, he only heard that his biological father was a poor migrant worker, but he never thought that Nan Tongda in front of him was a well-known financial expert who specialized in financial research.

Nantong Daneng is eloquent and quick thinking.

Nan Tongda told Nan Yangsheng: My father was originally the vice president of a bank in Hong Kong. During the civil war, he was influenced by the underground workers of the Communist Party and used various methods to raise funds for the Communist Party. When the Kuomintang withdrew from the mainland, he was persuaded to go to Taiwan, but he chose to go to the mainland. In the early days of the mainland's liberation, he was assigned to work in Beijing, where he and several colleagues worked in a bank. Because they are mainly engaged in banking business, they don't care about politics and have no awareness of participating in politics, so they were not affected by the anti-rightist movement. However, during the "One Strike, Three Antis" movement, several of his colleagues who had gone to the mainland from Hong Kong were arrested one after another. They were accused of having close business with Hong Kong and being Kuomintang secret agents lurking in the CCP's banking industry.

Nan Tongda explained to Nan Yangsheng what is meant by "one attack and three antis".

The One Strike Three Antis movement was a political movement during the Cultural Revolution. The movement has produced a large number of unjust, false and wrongly decided cases. The name "One Attack, Three Antis" comes from combating "counter-revolutionary sabotage activities" and opposing "corruption and theft", "speculation and extravagance". The targets of the "one strike" are the remaining people who resist the authority of the CCP in various places, and the purpose of the "three evils" is to strengthen the control of the localities. Its strike surface is smaller than that of the previous "cleaning class ranks", but the definition is still vague.

Nantongda said:

After May 1964, the Soviet Union and the United States stepped up their military threats to China. According to the announcement issued by the Ministry of Public Security, from November 1963 to January 1965, the military and civilians in coastal areas such as Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu successively wiped out 16 armed US and Chiang Kai-shek spies. On June 13, 1967, the Beijing Higher People's Court publicly tried Lu Guannan, a spy of the Indian Embassy in China, and sentenced him to be deported. From 1967 to 1969, the People's Liberation Army shot down 18 U.S.-Chiang aircraft in East and South China. the

1969 was the most tense year in Sino-Soviet relations after the founding of New China. In March of this year, an armed conflict broke out on Zhenbao Island on the border between China and the Soviet Union. On August 13, the Tirekti incident in Yumin County, Xinjiang, occurred again, and the situation on the Sino-Soviet border deteriorated in an all-round way. The Soviet Air Force in the Far East has repeatedly issued notices of suspension and standby to create an atmosphere for surprise attacks. At the end of August, our intelligence agency obtained relatively accurate information: the Soviet military was indeed actively planning a surprise nuclear attack on China.

After National Day in 1969, the situation became even more tense. Relevant departments determined that October 20, when the Soviet negotiating delegation arrived in Beijing, was likely to be the moment for the Soviet Union to attack. Therefore, be sure to prepare before October 19. For this reason, Lin Biao, accompanied by Huang Yongsheng, Wu Faxian and others, took the "Viscount" plane to survey the terrain around Zhangjiakou and inspected the troops' combat readiness.

This operation was extremely confidential, except for reporting to Mao Zedong, even Zhou Enlai didn't know about it. After returning to Beijing from Zhangjiakou, Lin Biao was entrusted by Mao Zedong to preside over a meeting of the Politburo to analyze the development trend of Sino-Soviet relations and study specific measures to prevent the Soviet Union from launching a surprise attack. On the afternoon of October 18, Lin Biao dictated and issued four instructions, the "First Order", and the entire army entered a state of emergency combat readiness.

It is against this background that the "One Strike, Three Anti" document was issued.

"Instructions on Combating Counter-Revolutionary Activities" states: "Since the Ninth National Congress of the Party...the situation has been excellent. But class enemies at home and abroad are not reconciled to their defeat...intensified sabotage activities,...some spread war Horror, spread rumors to confuse the public; some steal state secrets and serve the enemy; some take the opportunity to reverse the case and refuse to obey the control; It must be resolutely, accurately, and ruthlessly attacked..."

"Instructions on Opposing Corruption, Theft, and Speculation" pointed out: "A small group of class enemies not only waited for an opportunity to counterattack politically, but also launched an attack on socialism in the economic field."

Nan Tongda said: In my memory, around January 1970, the Letters and Calls Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China submitted to Zhou Enlai an investigation report on the large-scale construction and non-productive construction in Xi'an and other places. The report mentioned that some people were accused of "engaging in illegal activities", "leapfrogging appeals", "having no regard for the Municipal Revolutionary Committee" and "not conforming to organizational principles" for writing letters to reflect the problem of extravagance and waste. Later, Zhou Enlai instructed: This report should be printed and sent to the members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee. He also asked the staff to call Li Ruishan, then director of the Revolutionary Committee of Shaanxi Province, and pay attention to correcting the abnormal phenomenon of violating the new party constitution in retaliation against whistleblowers.

On this day, Zhou Enlai reviewed and revised the draft of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s notice against extravagance and waste that was printed and sent to the Political Bureau of the Central Committee for discussion. According to the local conditions, the revolutionary committees of the cities and autonomous regions will use them for other purposes, and then reset the economical construction plan and put it into practice". Added in the handling method: "Very serious cases should be given criminal punishment."

On January 30, Zhou Enlai submitted the "Instructions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Combating Counter-Revolutionary Sabotage Activities" to Mao Zedong and Lin Biao, and proposed: "After several discussions, we think that it is necessary to issue such an instruction to give a small group of counter-revolutionary elements who are mobilizing for war preparations. sabotage activities to combat."

Mao Zedong's instructions are: follow through.

On February 3, Zhou Enlai reviewed and revised the draft of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China's "Instructions on Combating Corruption, Theft, and Speculation".

The "Instructions on Combating Counter-Revolutionary Sabotage Activities" was reviewed by Zhou Enlai and issued on January 31. The "Instructions" pointed out that "Soviet revisionists are intensifying their collusion with U.S. imperialism and plotting to launch a war of aggression against our country; domestic counter-revolutionaries are also taking advantage of the opportunity to mobilize and echo each other from a distance. This is a new trend worth noting in the current class struggle." Therefore, it is necessary to "resolutely, accurately, and relentlessly attack all kinds of counter-revolutionary sabotage activities" throughout the country.

Nan Tongda continued:

I clearly remember that the "Instructions" made six regulations, the main contents are:

First, let go and mobilize the masses. From the perspective of combat readiness, observe everything, check everything, and implement everything. Call on the broad masses to report, expose, investigate, and criticize counter-revolutionaries, so as to dig out hidden enemies.

Second, we must highlight key points. The focus of the attack is the current counter-revolutionaries. We must resolutely suppress those active counter-revolutionaries who collaborate with the enemy and treason, conspire against the country, spy on military intelligence, steal secrets, commit murder, set fire to poison, counter-offensive, viciously attack the socialist system, rob state property, and disrupt public order. the

Third, we must strictly distinguish between two types of contradictions of different nature, distinguish between the enemy and ourselves, and distinguish between the serious and the serious.

Fourth, it is necessary to do a good job of publicity and mobilization with great fanfare, extensively and deeply. Don't kill too many people, only a very small number of people should be killed, and not too many people should be locked up, only the majority should be controlled. Whether it is killing, arresting, or controlling, it must be done very accurately, the evidence of the crime must be convincing, and the sentence must be appropriate; it must be handed over to the masses for criticism, struggle, and fight him out.

Fifth, the approval authority should be mastered in a unified manner. Murders are approved by the revolutionary committees of provinces, cities, and autonomous regions and reported to the central government for record.

Sixth, we must strengthen leadership. The head must be responsible, do it yourself, give specific guidance, and implement it in depth. Strictly review arrest and murder lists.

The "Instructions on Opposing Corruption, Theft, and Speculation" and the "Notice on Opposing Extravagance and Waste" were reviewed and revised by Zhou Enlai, and they were issued around the same time on February 5.

The central government believes that in the economic field, a small group of class enemies colluded with the bad guys hidden in the state's financial and economic departments, using factionalism and anarchism to instigate the evil trend of economism and destroy the socialist economic foundation; squandering of national wealth.

For this reason, the central government proposed that it is necessary to set off a climax of large-scale reporting, large-scale exposure, large-scale criticism, and large-scale clean-up throughout the country, resolutely crack down on corruption, theft, and speculation, and "shatter the attacks of class enemies in the economic field." It is necessary to mobilize the masses and act vigorously. Carry out the struggle against extravagance and waste.

The central government also reiterated: All commodities that are not allowed to be listed in accordance with the regulations are not allowed to be listed on the market; no unit is allowed to go to the market or rural communes to purchase items on its own except with the permission of the local competent department; all underground factories, shops, contractor teams, and transportation teams must be resolutely banned; new construction, expansion, and reconstruction of buildings and museums are strictly prohibited, and all constructions have to be suspended; no high-standard cities are allowed anywhere Construction projects; all government agencies, troops, organizations, schools, enterprises, and public institutions shall stop purchasing non-productive equipment.

After the above-mentioned three documents were issued, a "One Attack, Three Antis" campaign was vigorously launched to combat counter-revolutionary sabotage activities, corruption and theft, speculation and profiteering, and extravagance and waste.

On January 31, 1970, with the consent of Mao Zedong, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the "Instructions on Combating Counter-revolutionary and Sabotage Activities" drafted by Zhou Enlai. On February 5, the "Notice on Opposing Extravagance and Waste" and "Instructions on Opposing Corruption, Theft, and Speculation" were issued. When the three documents were combined into one, it became the "One Attack, Three Antis" campaign.

Cheng Jinghan interjected at this moment:

The "One Strike, Three Antis" movement is formally led by organizations at all levels of the CCP, and in the form of a political campaign, a considerable number of people have been sentenced to death, fixed-term imprisonment, and deprivation of political rights. In order to kill enough people in a short period of time to create a deterrent effect, the central government delegated the power of death penalty review, which originally belonged to the Supreme Court, to the provincial level. The provincial level only needs to report the number of homicides to the central government for record. However, some provinces have further delegated this to the county level, which has the power to announce the execution of the death penalty, and all those sentenced to death will be executed immediately. Killing becomes a mission to hit the numbers. When sentencing counter-revolutionaries, organize the "revolutionary masses" to study the documents and discuss whether counter-revolutionaries should be shot, which is regarded as implementing Mao Zedong's instruction that "dictatorship is the dictatorship of the masses".

Nan Tongda sighed:

It was against this background that some of my colleagues were arrested and some fled back to Hong Kong. I chose to flee Hong Kong. A few friends and I got the boat tickets through our connections, but we were soon caught when we passed the customs. At that time, I escaped a catastrophe because I went to the toilet to relieve my hand.

I already felt that it was impossible to go to Hong Kong, so I started to wander around. Many friends were arrested, and there was no hope of going to a big city, so I went to Nanling Town.

Nan Tongda said to Nan Yangsheng: I met Chai Jianhua, an old Chinese doctor in Nanling Town. At that time, he was a barefoot doctor. When he saw that my whole body was injured, he gave me a simple treatment. When Chai Jianhua helped me apply the medicine, a girl who came to fetch the medicine became the old Chinese doctor's assistant. Then we met, that girl is He Jiafu's adopted daughter, that is, your adoptive mother Alan.

Alan told me that her neighbor was forced by life to go out to work successively, and once entrusted her to take care of her child, but there was no news after that. Alan had no children at the time, so he regarded the boy as his own, but his husband was beaten to death by hooligans for a trivial matter, and she became a helpless widow. She hoped that He Jiafu could take her in as his goddaughter. She can take care of He Jiafu, and she can also take care of the young child entrusted to her by her neighbors.

Alan introduced me to He Jiafu. After He Jiafu saw me, he hoped that I would be his son-in-law, so that Alan could have a companion and the child would have a father. But I declined. I told He Jiafu that I already had a wife and a son who was as old as the boy Alan adopted. So, I stayed at He Jiafu for a few days, and left Lingnan Town after recovering from my injuries.

Nan Tongda sighed to Nanyang Changchang: I didn't expect that the boy Alan adopted back then was you. At that time, I didn't want to stay in He's house, the main reason was that I was in disaster and I was fleeing, how can I add disaster to others? What I didn't expect was that my wife He Zhongmiao was He Jiafu's first adopted daughter. He Zhongmiao is your real biological mother.

Nan Tongda said to Nan Yangsheng: Yangsheng, I must bring Mr. He Jiafu to Hong Kong and let him enjoy his old age here.
