In the early morning of December 14, 1970, an old man and his wife fell in a pool of blood with several shots. What is surprising is that this old man is the founding lieutenant general of our army, Tan Furen,
Tan Furen, a native of Renhua, Guangdong, born in 1910, participated in the Wuchang Uprising in his early years, from the Red Army period to the liberation In the war, he made great achievements for our army and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general in 1955. He is still the highest-ranking general who has come out of Renhua County, but no one thought that this founding general who had survived the bullets and bullets would be assassinated at home!
Tan Furen went to Jinggang Mountain after Nanchang Uprising . He has experienced all kinds of complicated and difficult struggles. On the battlefield, he worked hard and fought bravely. At work, he was serious and responsible, studied hard, and had difficulties. Many outstanding quality Communist Party members such as simplicity and integrity.
At the beginning of 1968, Tan Furen went to Kunming to serve as Secretary of the Party Committee of the Kunming Military Region. Tan Furen was just 58 years old at the time. It was just when he was young and strong. The central government also hoped that he would rectify Yunnan. Who knows that Tan Furen will be assassinated two years later. What happened behind this?
In the early morning of December 14, 1970, Tan Furen and his wife Wang Liyan were assassinated at home. Tan Furen was shot three times, one of which passed through the heart, directly causing death. Wang Liyan was shot between both eyebrows and died on the spot.
Tan Furen and Wang Liyan live in the No. 42 courtyard of the Kunming Military Region compound. This courtyard is surrounded by high walls and guards stand guard. According to Tan Furen’s identity at the time, his family has five guards, two at the front door and three At the back door, how did the murderer enter this tightly guarded place and kill the two of Tan Furen and his wife?
According to subsequent investigations, it was discovered that the Kunming Military Region was engaged in camping and training activities for thousands of miles. Three of the five guards were called away, and the remaining two were newcomers. One was afraid of gunshots, and Tan Furen called for help. At that time, he dared not go out, and one was even more absurd. He was with the babysitter, afraid of being discovered.
So, how could the murderer seize such a good opportunity? It was later discovered that the murderer was Wang Zizheng, then deputy chief of the Security Department. He knew about the situation of Tan Furen's house and the equipment of the guards. Moreover, this Wang Zizheng had also worked as a gun custodian and knew the secret room's password. All these factors put together, so that Wang Zizheng could assassinate successfully.
So, why did Wang Zizheng want to kill Tan Furen so frantically? During the War of Liberation, after the Kuomintang occupied the Central Plains, it organized a raid against progressive people in the local villages. Wang Zizheng’s cousin once led the Returning Team to kill the local village committee director in his home village. At that time, Wang Zizheng was also involved. It's just that his name was Wang Zhizheng at the time, and later he changed his name to Wang Zizheng. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he hid his previous experience and joined the People's Liberation Army.
In 1970, Wang Zizheng was promoted to the position of deputy chief of the Security Department. Not long after, his past was exposed and censored. This assassination was actually Wang Zizheng's venting of hatred, because he knew that his future was hopeless, and he wanted to kill others to vent his anger and avenge the society. Among the people he wanted to kill was not only Tan Furen, but also some high-ranking officials such as Chen Kang, the deputy commander of the military region. Finally Wang Zizheng knew that there was no hope of escape, so he committed suicide.
