Who is Xie Wendong? I'm not talking about characters in novels

Xie Wendong, formerly known as Xie Wenhan, was a Manchu and was born in Yongdian Village, Kuandian County, Liaoning Province in 1887. Later, the family moved to Nianzihe Village in Boli County. Xie Wendong is an influential figure in the modern history of Northeast China. When the Japanese armed settlers invaded their homeland, he resolutely rose up and led the children in his hometown to engage in a shocking armed struggle with the Japanese invaders. In one battle, he killed more than 20 people under the Japanese army Colonel Iizuka Togo... (According to "The Biography of Xie Wendong") Anti-Japanese anti-Japanese Xie Wendong hired someone in Kuandian County to kidnap fellow villager Zhang Baotang's grandson as a hostage because he owed foreign debts for purchasing land, and extorted 4,000 yuan of small foreign money. The Zhang family reported this matter to the government, and Xie Wendong took his family and fled to Tulong Mountain in Yilan County (now under the jurisdiction of Hunan). Xie Wendong has extensive contacts in Tulong Mountain. In 1926, he was elected as the fifth trustee. In 1930, the Yilan County government appointed him as the fifth security guard and leader of the self-defense regiment, making him a powerful family member in Tulong Mountain. After the September 18th Incident, the Japanese invaders quickly occupied Yilan. In the autumn of 1933, the Japanese army occupied Tulong Mountain to resettle immigrants and ordered the seizure of farmers' land licenses and guns. Xie Wendong led the people to resist the Japanese army and refused to hand over their guns and licenses. As a result, Fujimoto, the Japanese counselor of Puppet Yilan County, was dissatisfied and ordered the dismissal of Xie Wendong's position as the fifth security chief. The underground communist party in Tulong Mountain went deep into various guarantees to call on the people to organize and take up arms to attack the Japanese army. Under the influence of this situation, Xie Wendong approached Jing Zhenqing, the sixth security chief, to discuss forming a peasant anti-Japanese self-defense force. In just a few days, it developed into a peasant anti-Japanese team of more than 2,000 people. On March 9, 1934, he attacked the puppet police station and business group in Taiping Town, disarmed the enemy and killed more than 10 enemies. News of the peasant uprising quickly spread to Yilan County. Colonel Iizuka Togo, commander of the 63rd Regiment of the 10th Division of the Japanese Kwantung Army stationed in the city, brought more than 100 Japanese and puppet troops in 5 vehicles to Tulong Mountain on the 11th. After learning the information, Xie Wendong sent Cao Ziheng, Jing Longtan and others to lead a team to ambush the Japanese and puppet troops who came to suppress them in the Baijiagou area west of Taiping Town. They killed Colonel Iizuka and Second Lieutenant Suzuki on the spot and captured the puppet police captain Gai Wenyi. Five machine guns, more than 10 rifles and thousands of rounds of ammunition were seized. The victory of this peasant uprising shocked the country and abroad and was called the "Tulongshan Incident". Xie Wendong led the Peasant Self-Defense Army on the 12th and moved to Banjiehe to formally form the People's National Salvation Army. Xie Wendong appointed himself as commander-in-chief, Jing Zhenqing as the former enemy commander-in-chief, and Wang Jinyong as chief of staff. In the spring of 1935, Xie Wendong's troops and the Third Anti-Japanese Army jointly attacked Fangzheng County. Five Japanese police captains, Japanese police sergeants and lieutenants were killed, and the residences of Japanese counselors and instructors were burned down. Firearms, ammunition and other supplies were seized. In September 1936, the People's National Salvation Army was reorganized into three divisions of the Eighth Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, with Xie Wendong as commander. It is active in Fangzheng, Yanshou, Yilan, Boli, Linkou and other counties. He fought against the Japanese and puppet troops many times, inflicting heavy blows to the enemy, and became an important anti-Japanese armed force in the lower reaches of the Songhua River at that time. In 1938, under heavy encirclement and suppression by the Japanese army, most of the leaders of the Eighth Anti-Alliance Army died, and some surrendered to the enemy. The troops suffered heavy casualties. In less than a month, eight of Xie Wendong's relatives were killed by Japanese soldiers, and there were only a dozen people left in his team. Surrender In the spring of 1939, when Xie Wendong was in a difficult and difficult situation during the Anti-Japanese War, he surrendered to the Japanese invading forces and betrayed his motherland and people. After Xie Wendong surrendered, he went to Tokyo, Japan, and was summoned by Emperor Hirohito. He shamelessly expressed his remorse to the Japanese government and knelt in front of the so-called "Loyal Soul Monument" to repent and apologize. From then on, Xie Wendong acted as a loyal slave of Japanese imperialism. After returning to Boli, Japan built 5 brick houses for Xie Wendong, allocated 40 acres of land and pastures from Dayitun in Xiaowuzhan, and appointed him as the honorary president of the Japanese-Manchu Association in Boli County and the leader of the Chengzihe Coal Mine in Jixi and labor captain. From then on, Xie Wendong clung to the invaders wholeheartedly and began to defraud the people. When I was the foreman at the Chengzihe Coal Mine in 1939, I only paid workers a few yuan a day, and various expenses and their wages were deducted. He would also deduct some of the cigarettes distributed to some heavy smokers and resell them at high prices to make a fortune. In 1942, the Labor Law was implemented, and important industries and military projects carried out mandatory labor allocation. Boli sends six to seven hundred people to work as laborers in the coal mines every year. When the labor force is insufficient, they have to "grab laborers" to carry coal in the mines. The bones of miners who freeze, starve, or die from illness are piled in piles. Suppression In October 1945, Xie Wendong was in Dayitun, Xiaowu Station. In the name of recovering from illness, he raised the banner of the Kuomintang and formed the Third Army of the Central Advance Army of the Fifth Theater. He was appointed commander by the Kuomintang. A dozen regiments with more than 1,500 people were formed in Boli, Huanan and other places.

In November of the same year, Li Yanlu, chairman of Hejiang Province, wrote to Xie many times with his old relationship with the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, asking him to recognize the situation clearly, believe in the Communist Party's policies, and not to be fooled by the Kuomintang. After negotiations, he agreed to incorporate his troops into the Sanjiang People's Autonomous Army. But he secretly transferred his troops to another place to wait for the rebellion. In late November, the Kuomintang special commissioner Wukang rushed to Boli to instigate Xie Wendong. Xie then reorganized the team into the Kuomintang's "First Advance Army of the Fifteenth Northeastern Group Army". Xie Wendong was appointed general commander-in-chief, often traveling between Boli, Yilan, Linkou, Jining (West) and other counties are enemies of the Communist Party and the people. Burning, killing, looting, and destroying the rear defense base areas in the liberated areas. After the 359th Brigade troops led by Fang Qiang were stationed in Boli and Huanan in March 1946, they fought with Xie Wendong several times, and Xie Wendong was beaten and fled in all directions. But Xie Wendong is still ambitious. At the reorganization meeting held by the Kuomintang in Xisandaohezi, special commissioner Yang Yiru appointed Xie Wendong as the lieutenant general commander of the Second Group Army of the Security Army of Hejiang Province on behalf of the Kuomintang's commander-in-chief of the northeast counterattack. When Xie Wendong was on the verge of "self-destruction", the Communist Party of China sent people to persuade him to correct his evil ways and return to the right path in order to give him a way out. However, Xie Wendong remained stubborn and continued to be the enemy of the people to the end. In the autumn of 1946, the 359th Brigade and the Hejiang Military Region launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against Xie Wendong. Xie had no place to stand and attempted to escape to Mudanjiang and flee to Changchun. Passing by the Lianzhu River, a large force of the Eighth Route Army was discovered, and then returned to Badao Gou. In October, they fled to Jiapigou. On November 20, 1946, when Xie Wendong led several people to escape to a small mountain temple between Sidaohezi and Wuhuzuizi, they were captured by Li Yuqing, deputy commander of the fifth company of the 8th Regiment of the 359th Brigade, and Liu Shuyan, the second platoon leader. The team he led captured him alive. The Boli County Government held a public trial in front of the Boli County Government on December 3. After the meeting, Xie was executed on the west bank of the Nianzi River. He died at the age of 60.
