On this day 90 years ago, on March 31, 1935 (February 27, 1935), Qian Zhuangfei made Zhou Enlai kneel. On March 31, 1935, Qian Zhuangfei, deputy secretary-general of the General Political Department of the Red Army, was attacked and killed by enemy planes on the banks of the Wujiang River. Qian Zhuangfei was transferred to the Special Branch of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in 1928 and entered the Shanghai International Radio Management Office. He later served as the confidential secretary of Xu Enzeng, the secret chief of the Kuomintang. In April 1931, Gu Shunzhang was arrested and defected. He immediately reported the situation to the Party Central Committee and Zhou Enlai, and made significant contributions to the security of the Party Central Committee and its leading comrades. In the spring of 1932, Qian served as the director of the Red Army Security Bureau. In 1933, he was transferred to the second bureau of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission. In the history of the Communist Party of China's hidden front struggle, there are former and later "three heroes", known as the "first three heroes" referring to Li Kenong, Qian Zhuangfei, and Hu Di, and the "last three heroes" referring to Xiong Xianghui, Chen Zhongjing, and Shen Jian. This statement comes from Zhou Enlai, the leader of the Communist Party of China's hidden front, which can be said to represent the evaluation of the high-level CCP on their contributions. Famous underground workers of our party, the prototype in "Hidden". Extended reading: Qian Zhuangfei's earth-shattering exploits made Zhou Enlai kneel. Extended reading: Qian Zhuangfei's earth-shattering exploits made Zhou Enlai kneel. Those who can make Zhou Enlai kneel can see the extraordinary exploits. Unfortunately, during the Long March, he disappeared in Guizhou. After much investigation, there are still many opinions on his death. But the achievements he left behind, until now, are very shocking. He is "Qian Zhuangfei", one of the three heroes of Longtan. After Chiang Kai-shek's 412 counter-revolution, the days of all Communist Parties were very difficult at once. Li Dazhao was killed, and many people, including Qian Zhuangfei, were also wanted in Beijing at that time. In desperation, he had to flee to Shanghai with his family. After arriving in Shanghai, he lost contact with the party organization. With his eyes full of sunshine, he could not find a good job in Shanghai for a while. In 1928, the Shanghai International Radio Management Office recruited students, and Qian Zhuangfei signed up for the exam. Fortunately, he was admitted to the training class with a good first-place score. In order to penetrate deeply into the interior, Qian Zhuangfei sent his young daughter, Qian Zhenzhen, through Tian Han, to Li Jinhui's Bright Moon Song and Dance Troupe, where his wife also worked as a family subsidy for a lifetime. This training class was actually set up under Chen Lifu's instructions to select talents for the new party secret service organization. Chen Lifu attached great importance to this and specially sent Xu Enzeng, who had just returned from studying in the United States, to be the director. Xu Enzeng was the backbone of the CC department with Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu's cousins. Due to this relationship, Xu Enzeng often had access to some confidential documents, and his official luck was very prosperous. He was in charge of this training class, and the most important person was to find talents. Usually smart and capable, skilled in business, not concerned about politics, and Qian Zhuangfei, a fellow from Wuxing, Zhejiang Province, was soon taken seriously by him. After several inspections, he tried his best to win him over. Of course, he would never have thought that this right-hand man would become the most dangerous bomb around him. In 1929, Xu Enzeng relied on his relationship with the cousins of the Chen brothers and quickly transferred to the director of the Zhejiang Provincial Government Construction Department. Qian Zhuangfei, as his most effective assistant, of course went with him. Shortly after Xu Enzeng took office, in the summer of 1929, the Zhejiang provincial government was preparing to hold a large-scale West Lake Expo in Hangzhou, which Xu Enzeng was in charge of. Qian Zhuangfei, Xu Enzeng's most effective leader, was responsible for more than half of the design and conference affairs of the entire expo. In order to win Xu Enzeng's further trust, Qian Zhuangfei carefully designed and arranged every detail of the expo, which made the expo an unprecedented success. Visitors were all full of praise, and even Kong Xiangxi went to the scene to watch and expressed his satisfaction. The expo also attracted the attention of Chen Lifu, which made Qian Zhuangfei more appreciated and trusted by Xu Enzeng. Soon after, he served as Xu Enzeng's personal secretary. It was not until November of the same year that Qian Zhuangfei met Li Kenong through Hu Di and made contact with the organization. Hu Di was Qian Zhuangfei's closest comrade-in-arms. When he was a student at Chinese University, he often met with my Qian Zhuangfei. After graduation, he lived at Qian Zhuangfei's house for a time. Later, after Li Dazhao was murdered, he moved south to Shanghai. Because Hu Di had previously run a film studio in Beijing with Xu Guanghua and my grandfather, he found a job at the Shanghai Film Company. At this time, Hu Di, like Qian Zhuangfei, lost contact with the organization. But unexpectedly, in the movie studio, he ran into Li Kenong, who was a member of the Shanghai Central Committee of the Communist Party of China at the time. Because the two were fellow Anhui villagers who had also participated in revolutionary activities together, they hit it off at first sight. It was also this chance encounter that led him and my grandfather Qian Zhuangfei to get in touch with the organization. The Central Committee at that time was surprised and pleasantly surprised to learn that Qian Zhuangfei had already obtained an important position at Xu Enzeng's office. He quickly decided to let Li Kenong take the Shanghai Radio Administration exam. Around this time, Chen Lifu appointed Xu Enzeng as the director of the investigation department of the Organization Department of the Kuomintang Central Committee, whose main task was to eradicate the Communist Party in the Kuomintang-ruled areas. Soon after, under the personal leadership of Zhou Enlai, Qian Zhuangfei, Hu Di, and Li Kenong broke into the enemy's secret service. At that time, the secret service of the Communist Party of China established "news agencies" in various places, and the director's task was to collect intelligence. The "Changjiang News Agency" in Nanjing was controlled by Qian Zhuangfei, the "Great Wall News Agency" in Tianjin was controlled by Hu Di, and there was Li Kenong in Shanghai. The three of them formed the "Iron Triangle", which completely used the intelligence organization that the Kuomintang had painstakingly established for me. It is for this reason that Zhou Enlai called the three of them the "Three Masters of Longyuan". Xu Enzeng, although a major leader of the government due to his lust, often left his work to go to Shanghai to meet his mistress. Therefore, many confidential documents, cables, and intelligence sent from various places, if they were general or involved in daily world affairs within the department, were mostly handled by Qian Zhuangfei on his behalf. In addition, many confidential documents and telegrams that need to be handled by Xu Enzeng in person must also be reviewed by Qian Zhuangfei; all telegrams and various intelligence materials that should be personally approved by Xu Enzeng should also be reviewed and signed by Qian Zhuangfei in advance, and then sent to Xu Enzeng for approval. It stands to reason that it is not difficult to obtain all the intelligence. But this is not the case. Xu Enzeng has a codebook that he personally keeps and informs senior government officials. If there is a major matter, Xu Enzeng handles it himself and translates the confidential documents. No one else can get any information. From Xu Enzeng's caution, it can be seen that this information must be very important. In order to get this codebook, Qian Zhuangfei can be said to have taken great pains. Through Xu Enzeng's frequent night trips to Shanghai, Qian Zhuangfei deliberately and kindly advised him not to keep particularly important things with him when he went out, and he would regret it if he lost it. Xu Enzeng thought about it too, so every time he went out, he hid the codebook in the confidential safe in the office. Once, Qian Zhuangfei took advantage of his outing, opened the safe, and took pictures of all the codebooks with a miniature camera. The codebooks that he tried every means to obtain became a magic weapon. Since then, Qian Zhuangfei has been able to easily obtain almost all the information of the Nationalist Government, including top-secret information, and then reported it to the Central Committee through Li Kenong, making a very great contribution to the early survival of the Communist Party. On December 9, 1930, Chiang Kai-shek held a conference in Nanchang to suppress the Communist Party of Jiangxi. After the conference, the deployment of the Red Army to encircle and suppress the Communist Party of Jiangxi was quickly formulated. And this information on the deployment of the Kuomintang's first encirclement and suppression of the Jiangxi Soviet Area was translated by Qian Zhuangfei in advance, and it was packed in a large envelope printed with the "Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang". It was delivered to Li Kenong in Shanghai overnight and passed on to Zhou Enlai through Li Kenong. It is precisely because of this that when the Nationalist government was preparing to take military action, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in Jiangxi had already known its battle plan, and failure was normal. Chiang Kai-shek's determination to destroy the Communist Party was so great that he could not do it again. But the second encirclement and suppression deployment was also sent to the central government by Qian Of course, a large number of national troops who had left were scattered by the Red Army who were waiting for it. Qian Zhuangfei can be said to have contributed greatly to the success of these two counter-encirclement and suppression campaigns. He fought the most beautiful battle on the most dangerous and hidden battlefield. On April 25, 1935, six telegrams were sent in succession from Wuhan, and all the names had to be personally translated by Xu Enzeng. It happened that Xu Enzeng went to Shanghai again on this day. Qian Zhuangfei translated the telegrams. After translating, he found that each one was more amazing than the other, and he was really shocked into a cold sweat. The first telegram said that Gu Shunzhang had been arrested and turned himself in, and asked to be sent to Nanjing immediately to see Chiang Kai-shek and to report to the head of the Communist Party of China and all the key organs. Gu Shunzhang was a member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China at that time, the head of the Central Special Branch, and held the secrets of the party's protection work. Once he was arrested and defected, the consequences for the Communist Party of China were unpredictable. And Qian Zhuangfei's own situation was also very dangerous. So he quickly sent the news to Li Kenong, and after he handed the telegram to Xu Enzeng, he quickly ran to Shanghai. After Li Kenong received the urgent information, he quickly handed it to Zhou Enlai. Zhou Enlai decisively grabbed the enemy and cut off all the clues that Gu Shunzhang knew. All important organs of the Party Central Committee were evacuated overnight, and none of the central staff was injured. Later, Zhou Enlai said many times: "If there was no Qian Zhuangfei, we would have been gone for a long time." Qian Zhuangfei was forced to leave Xu Enzeng because of the Gu Shunzhang incident, but Xu Enzeng was afraid of being investigated. He concealed the matter from Chiang Kai-shek by unblocking his boss Chen Lifu and relevant colleagues. It is also because of this that the Kuomintang authorities have not changed the password for a long time. Later, after the Red Army's Long March, through the interception of the enemy's radio, not only was he not ambushed once, but he was always able to choose the weak part of the Kuomintang's encirclement to jump out. It can be said that a small codebook saved the Red Army. After being safely evacuated from the Kuomintang "Central Unification" department to the Soviet District, Qian Zhuangfei was initially assigned to work in the health clinic of the Jianning Kangdu Wei Red Front Army Command, but no one knew his achievements at this time. It was not until soon after that that Li Kenong, Hu Beifeng and others came to the Soviet District one after another, and the leaders in the Soviet District knew of his achievements. Soon, Qian Zhuangfei was appointed director of the Central Security Bureau. In September 1932, he concurrently served as a member of the General Committee of the Red Army Pension Committee of the Chinese Workers and Peasants. In April 1933, he was transferred to the Director of the Second Bureau at the rear of the Central Military Commission. Later, on the way to the Long March, he unfortunately died. Later, when Zhou Enlai invited Qian Zhuangfei's family to dinner on the 50th of Zengjiayan, he knelt on his knees in the direction of Qian Zhuangfei's disappearance and said to Qian Zhuangfei's wife, Zhang Zhenhua, "If there was no Qian Zhuangfei, there would be no Zhou Enlai." There was a later movie called "Jinling Night" that specifically reflected Qian Zhuangfei's history. The director of this film is Qian Zhuangfei's son, Qian Jiang, China's most outstanding cinematographer of the last century.
