Wang Yimin and the Tianjin Incident
Japanese aggression invaded China. In 1931, the "September 18th" Incident was launched in Shenyang. On November 8th, 50 days later, the “Penal Trouble Trouble” was planned in Tianjin, and the history was called “Tianjin Incident”. During the "Tianjin Incident", the Chinese army that suppressed the riots of the Japanese plainclothes team was the Tianjin Security Corps, and its captain was Wang Yimin. He was the deputy commander of the Tianjin Security Command and the Tianjin Martyrdom Command. The commander of the Tianjin Martyr Command was Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin and the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Wang Yimin was born in Liaoning in 1898, Manchu. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to the first artillery department of the Northeast Wushu Temple in 1919. He was a classmate with Zhang Xueliang. After graduation, he was assigned to the Northeast Army. He served as company commander, battalion commander, head of the team, chief of operations, chief of staff, etc. In 1928, he was selected by General Zhang Xueliang to the Japanese Army Infantry Specialized School for further study. Zhang Xueming, the younger brother of Zhang Xueliang, who went to study in Japan. Wang Yimin and his classmates have a very good relationship, especially with his second brother, Zhang Xueming. After Wang Yimin returned to China, he was originally assigned to the brigade of the Binbei area in the northeast. Later, due to repeated requests from Zhang Xueming, he was transferred to Tianjin as the head of the security team. To this end, Zhang Xueming once said to his eldest brother Zhang Xueliang: "You don't adjust Wang Yimin to Tianjin as the security commander. When I am my assistant, I will not be the director of the Tianjin Public Security Bureau." Because the Pingjin and the two cities are very important to Zhang Xueliang, it is 30. In the early years, Zhang Xueliang ruled the political and economic centers of the eight provinces and cities in the Northeast and North China.Tianjin, in particular, is the main source of Zhang Xueliang's fiscal and taxation. It is also the throat of the Northeast Army's entry and exit. When it is stationed in Tianjin, it is equal to holding North China and keeping the Northeast. Therefore, it must send its own person to serve as the head of Tianjin. The Northeast Army went out for the fourth time in early 1930, and Zhang Xueliang sent his second brother Zhang Xueming to the Tianjin Public Security Bureau. One year later, he was promoted to the mayor of Tianjin, but he was still the municipal public security bureau chief.
Zhang Xueming asked Wang Yimin to be the security chief of Tianjin. In addition to the friendship between them, he knew the talent and experience of Wang Yimin.Before he took up this position, Wang served in various military positions and repeatedly took troops to fight. This can make up for his own youngness and the shortcomings of being a city. In addition, when they were studying in Japan, Wang Yimin had excellent academic performance and the first place in the graduation examination. This is rare among Chinese students, so he has an admiration for Wang Yimin. In addition, Wang Yimin was loyal to Zhang Xueliang, serious in his work, dare to be responsible, and brave to take heavy burdens, so he was promoted every year.Wang Yimin often said: "I can't compare with the Zhang family. I am a poor boy. If I don't study hard, I don't work seriously, I am afraid of suffering, I am afraid of death, can I step up to today's status? I got the trust of Zhang Jia. I completely rectified the security team Wang Yimin’s second day of service, and convened all the officers and men of the security team to meet and meet with you. Unexpectedly, I informed the 8 o'clock meeting, and at 9 o'clock, I came to more than 100 people, only Half of the cadres on the roster, it was learned that about one-third of the officers and men were still asleep. Because the first night was not dancing in the ballroom, visiting the kiln, playing mahjong, pushing the cards, and not coming in the morning. The rest of the people just wrote a name on the roster. In fact, there was no such person at all. They were all "empty" by the officials at all levels of the corps. Can a unit like this take it out to fight? Later, after an in-depth investigation, Wang Yimin discovered: This security team was originally a police force left by Yang Yide, the police chief of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. It was called defending Tianjin and maintaining public security. It was actually a group of people who oppressed the people and did nothing. The discipline within the team was abolished, the weapons were outdated, and only the ground was scraped and the soldiers were greeted. The soldiers did not go to the patrols, and they ran the blackmails for the people and did some things to steal the chickens and touch the dogs. Wang Yimin believed that: there were not many soldiers, they were strong in the strong. No matter how many, a regiment can't beat a company with a strong army. For this reason, Wang Yimin reported the impression of the first arrival to the security team to Director Zhang Xueming, and proposed a thorough rectification and strengthening. The security team's five suggestions:
1. All the security guards and soldiers on the books, from the captain, chief of staff, team leader, down to the soldiers, servicemen, and husbands, must pass the post assessment and testing, incompetent and drug abuse, old age, infirmity, illness and conduct. Unreasonable and seriously disturbing the people, resolutely remove the name.
2. The lack of the security team will be supplemented by the backbone of the Northeast Army, and the total strength of the team will gradually reach 3 groups.
3, the "empty amount" in the security team will be filled, and the bad habits of the old line will be removed. In the past, “empty money” was no longer pursued, and if there were recidivisms in the future, it would be severely punished.
4. Renew some old weapons, the ammunition base should be matched, and if necessary, equip some heavy weapons.
5. Strengthen military training and patriotic soil conservation education. In
order to strengthen the military training of the security team, Wang Yimin’s captain also personally served as the chief instructor of the security team at the beginning of his term of office, and recruited from the recent graduates of the Japanese Army Sergeant School and the Northeast Graduated Wutang. The outstanding ones are instructors. Among the four young instructors who have been recruited, Huang Guannan is selected as the chief instructor, Sun Mingjiu, Jieruchuan and Jia Guofu are the instructors. The four young instructors later became revolutionary materials, and Sun Mingjiu served as the general of Zhang Xueliang in 1936. The battalion commander was ordered to capture Chiang Kai-shek in Huaqingchi during the Xi'an Incident and became a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference after liberation. Jia Guofu (Jia Tao) served as deputy commander of the Chinese People's Liberation Army artillery and dean of the Artillery Academy after the national liberation; Xie Ruchuan (Xie Fang) served as the Chinese people The Chief of Staff of the Volunteer Army Command and the Deputy Director of the Training Department of the Military Commission; Huang Guannan later participated in the Anti-Japanese War. Any head and other staff.
Strengthen the Japanese concession intelligence work. Wang Yimin, while vigorously rectify security team, he found a group the size of a traitor in activity at the date of the concession, such as Lee Ji-Chun, Zhang Bi, Yuan Wen will wait while famous Chinese Tong Japan’s Kwantung Army’s special agent, Toshihara Kenji, also rushed from the northeast to Tianjin to conduct secret activities. According to intelligence, Xing Ai Xinjue Luo Puyi, who has lived in Tianjin’s Japanese concession for many years, has not been safe in recent days. What is the purpose of traitors, spies, sects, bandits, and hooligans? Is there any internal connection? According to Wang Yimin’s experience in Japan for many years, there is no good thing for Japanese to participate. Japan’s national policy is foreign aggression. The first to bear the brunt is China. The three northeastern provinces have been occupied by the Japanese, and North China and Tianjin are also imminent. In order to clarify the situation of Japanese and traitors, it is necessary to strengthen the intelligence work of the Japanese concession. Wang Yimin decided to set up a special task force within the security team from the entire team. And the police in the city, who are familiar with the situation of the Japanese concession, and who can get in touch with the Japanese and the traitors, are divided into several groups. They entered the Japanese concession and the inside of the enemy separately. For example, Li Jichun’s adjutant, Zhang Wei’s staff, all of whom were sent by the security team. Because of this, before the Japanese plainclothes riots, they were well aware of all their activities. The head of the army, Yuji Kenji, went to Tianjin this time. The main task was to deceive, threaten and hold the Emperor Ai Xinjue Luo Puyi to the northeast to serve as the emperor of the Manchurian state. The second was to give a command to the Tianjin Japanese troops in the army. ideas, planning riots Tianjin undercover team in an attempt to Chinese people to fight Chinese people to overthrow the Tianjin local government, the establishment of the puppet regime. this will not only interfere with the rule of Zhang Xueliang in the north, but also with the aggressive activities of the Kwantung Army in Northeast China.
in order to implement aggressive plans Yu Fei, the native of the country, introduced his Chinese “brothers” Li Jichun (the famous Japanese movie star, the Chinese singer of the singer Li Xianglan) and Zhang Wei (formerly the police chief of Beiping) to the commander of the Tianjin Army in Tianjin, Lieutenant General Xiang, to serve as Tianjin. The regular and deputy commander of the plainclothes team is ready to succeed in the riots, Li Jichun is the chairman of Hebei Province, and Zhang Wei is the special mayor of Tianjin. And the chief of public security. Li Jichun and Zhang Wei’s riot headquarters are located at No. 28, 2nd Floor, Wanguo Apartment, Japan Concession. In order to facilitate the command of the war, the Japanese also agreed to set up a five-point office of the plainclothes team commander, including the deputy, staff, secretary, military, and military. There are a number of detachments under the commander. There are several to 10 detachments under the detachment. There are 8 to 12 sheds under the detachment. Each shed has 1 leader and 10 soldiers. A total of more than 2,000 people were recruited. Weapons and ammunition are all distributed by the Japanese, mostly rifles and pistols. Each team is only equipped with 2 to 3 light machine guns; heavy machine guns and chasing guns used in riots are all controlled by the Japanese. In addition, there are more than 10 tanks and armored vehicles for the charge. The plainclothes team headquarters, detachment, and detachment all have Japanese consultants, and the size of the matter is dominated by Japanese consultants. The commander, the detachment leader, and the captain were only executed in accordance with the instructions of the Japanese consultant.
The plainclothes team usually trains, and each person is given a subsidy of 4, 6 and 1 yuan per day. When the riots occur, they increase to $1 to $50 a day. The money is all made by the Japanese. Most of the military training was usually carried out at the Haiguang Temple military camp in Japan. Later, many people went on the Japanese school playground and the road. The instructors are all Japanese officers and Japanese soldiers in the township (demobilized soldiers). Training subjects, first hand training, followed by guns, bombs, night battles, street fighting training. The recruited junior officers and soldiers have been training for 3 months, and the time is short. Only a few days, most of them are soldiers and squadrons. In the past, they played a battle and had some fighting power. In addition, the 6,000-day overseas Chinese in the Japanese concession community were all organized. More than 1,000 volunteers from the township formed a volunteer team to help the Japanese army train the plainclothes team, build fortifications, and participate in the battle against the Chinese region when necessary to become a reserve force for the Japanese army. Women set up ambulance teams to rescue the wounded. Every household is informed of the storage of food, vegetables and essential consumer goods.
Determined to eliminate the plainclothes team.
One month after the Japanese imperialists launched the "September 18th" Incident, General Zhang Xueliang, the Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming, who is in charge of Tianjin's local public security, and the Tianjin Security Chief of the Army, Wang Yimin, called Beiping to listen to their security against Tianjin. Report on the situation and the activities of the Japanese army. Wang Yimin first reported the social security of Tianjin, the activities of the Japanese and plainclothes teams, and the rectification and preparations of the Tianjin security team. After the Japanese imperialists launched the "September 18th" Incident in Shenyang, the second target of aggression was Tianjin. . The reasons are as follows: 1. Tianjin is the gateway to the Northeast, and the first big city to exit is Tianjin. It is also a sea-land transportation hub and a battleground for military strategists; 2. Tianjin is the largest industrial and commercial city in northern China, a distribution center for financial resources and materials in North China, and a base for military logistics supply. 3. Tianjin is the rear base of the Northeast Army in Guanzhong. It is the political and economic center that Zhang Xueliang ruled in North China. If the Japanese army occupied Tianjin, it would inevitably shock and shake Zhang Xueliang’s rule over North China, which will inevitably affect the support of the Northeast.
What method will the Japanese army use to invade Tianjin? Wang Yimin analyzes: From the current point of view, the Japanese army cannot take the old road of direct dispatch and occupation in the "September 18th" Incident. First, the strength of the troops is insufficient. Several divisions in the three northeastern provinces are being stubbornly resisted by the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteers. At present, the Japanese army is transferring two divisions from the three divisions occupying North Korea to the northeast. The Japanese reserve team has not yet fully mobilized.Second, the "National League" is in a meeting and is preparing to send a investigation team to inspect the Northeast. If Tianjin is also directly occupied by Japanese troops, it will increase the condemnation of Japan by various governments.Third, the Japanese troops in North China and Tianjin have trained and attracted many Chinese people, including China’s former military and political leaders. They are willing to serve the Japanese and act as traitors. Tianjin’s Li Jichun, Zhang Wei and his plainclothes team are among them. According to the above three points, the Japanese army is most likely to adopt the Huazhihua approach, using the recruited and trained Chinese traitor plainclothes team as the leader and main body, based on the Japanese concession, and the Japanese stationed army as the backing, Tianjin Attacks and harassment in China, creating riots and attempting to occupy Tianjin. According to internal news from Li Jichun and Zhang Wei's headquarters: There are three main points in their attack: the first target is the Public Security Bureau, which is the headquarters of the Security Corps; the second and third targets are the provincial and municipal governments. If these three places are occupied, it will overthrow the Tianjin local government and occupy all of Tianjin. In addition, the Japanese army also predicted that the Chinese garrison on the outskirts of Tianjin would not enter the city to assist the security team in the fighting, because the "Xin Chou Treaty" provided them with protection. If the Chinese government dispatches Chinese troops to Tianjin to fight against Japan, it will give the Japanese seize the excuse, and even send a large army to invade China. The Japanese estimate that their main obstacle and opponent in Tianjin is the Tianjin Security Corps. They originally expected that as long as they recruited more than 1,000 people's plainclothes teams and trained them, it would be no problem to defeat the Tianjin Security Corps. Later, the Japanese learned that the Tianjin Security Corps was no longer the former security corps. Under the leadership of Director Zhang, after a year of rectification and training, the combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced. To this end, the Japanese recruited more than 1,000 people, thinking that the 2,000-person plainclothes team repelled the security team is no problem.
Zhang Xueliang thinks that Wang Yimin's analysis is very reasonable. He said, "The Japanese are right. If they fight, there is a "Xin Chou Treaty", and the Chinese army cannot enter the city. The commander-in-chief will never agree. I am the deputy commander and can only obey the commander-in-chief. If it is only the security team to fight, it is a security issue, it is to suppress the riots of the Japanese plainclothes team, not the Sino-Japanese military. The problem depends on you, if you are sure If the Japanese soldiers repel and can eliminate the plainclothes team, I will agree to you; otherwise, if it fails, it is better not to fight." Wang Yimin said with confidence: "I have the confidence and confidence to repel the Japanese and eliminate the plainclothes team. Zhang Xueliang also asked Zhang Xueming's opinion. Zhang Xueming said: "I agree with the views of a people. Before we came to Beiping, we conducted research. Only by playing, it is the way out; if there is no fight, there is no future." After repeated consideration, Zhang Xueliang finally agreed to Zhang Xueming and Wang Yimin's operational plan. He said: But there is one, it must be the Japanese to get started, we can fight back. We must not do it first. Before leaving, General Zhang Xueliang greeted his second brother affectionately: "Xue Ming, your courage is good. But you are still young and lack practical experience. In the military, relying on a people, he has a fighting experience, politically Negotiations with the same day, Wang Shuchang often studied. Major issues, report to me at any time. After
Wang Yimin and Zhang Xueming returned from Tianjin to Tianjin, they paid more attention to the dynamics of the Japanese concession. Strengthen the training of the security team, especially the night battle and street fighting training. The Japanese army is also sharpening the knife. It has set up roadblocks, erected power grids, manufacturing fortifications around the Japanese concession, inspections of pedestrians and vehicles, and observation whistle on the top of the Central Plains (now department store) and Dongyue Building. Aiming at the provincial and municipal governments and other places. A few days before the Tianjin Incident, the Japanese ship “Tianlongwan” drove into the Tianjin terminal and unloaded dozens of tons of weapons and ammunition for use in the riots. These signs indicate that the Japanese launched the attack. It will not be too long, it is imminent. On the morning of November 8, 1931, the captain of Wang Yimin suddenly received an urgent report from the third captain Li Yinpo: around 10 o'clock that night, Ji Chun and Zhang Wei commanded more than 2,000 plainclothes teams. Under the supervision of the Japanese army, they will attack the Chinese urban areas in three ways. The first route is to attack the two sides of the coastal river from the south to the north. The target is the command of the security headquarters of the west of Jintang Bridge. The Municipal Public Security Bureau; the second road is through the Nanshi, Dongma Road, Jingang Bridge, the target is the provincial government; the third road starts from the Haiguang Temple Japanese Barracks, promotes to Nankai and Nanshi City, attempts to occupy the public security bureaus and Police police station. In view of the urgent changes in the situation, Wang Yimin ordered all security brigades, squadrons, public security bureaus and police stations to enter the state of alert, and no one should leave the post; on the other hand, report to Zhang Xueming. On the day when Zhang Xue had a wedding, it was ulterior for the Japanese to choose this day. Because of this day, the military and military officials in Tianjin had to attend the wedding of Zhang Xuezeng, and Wang Yimin was no exception, which could give the Japanese army a chance.
Zhang Xueming asked Whether Wang Yimin postponed Zhang Xuezeng’s wedding. Wang Yimin said: “No. We are using the three brothers to marry the Japanese and do the same day. They thought that our commanders were all attending the wedding, and the dragons had no head. We will count on it. I use life to guarantee, but also to repel the enemy who dares to invade. As the third captain Li Yinpo reported, at 12:30 in the evening, the bell of the Japanese military camp Haiguang Temple rang, this is the signal of the attack. The plainclothes team ambushing at the intersection of the Japanese concession, under the supervision of the Japanese army, the bee Surging out of the Japanese concession and rushing to the target. The prepared security team relied on the temporary construction of the road to resist. After more than an hour of intense fighting, some defenses could not stand, especially the sea light. Temple, Guangkai Erma Road area. Then, part of the defense line in the Nanshi area was also attacked by the enemy, close to the gate of the command, due to the stubborn resistance of the first team of officers and soldiers, the Japanese army and the plainclothes team could not attack for a long time. The captain of the team, Wang Yimin, transferred some of the squadrons of the second brigade of the General Reserve of the Security Corps to the south and south of the city for reinforcements. The battle was carried out until 3:30 in the morning, except for the second police station in the second district near the Japanese concession. The gendarmerie has occupied the ranks of the Japanese army and the plainclothes team. The first night of the battle killed more than 50% of the enemy, including the Japanese army Cao Changgong and two Japanese soldiers. Krupp undercover team more than 100 people.
At 4:30 on November 9, Garrison Japan commander Kōhei Kashii fighting the Japanese side will see the negative, it is matter of great urgency to the Chinese side the highest executive authority, chairman of Hebei Province and Tianjin Long Wang Xueming often raised The two sides immediately ceased fire, (I am afraid that the security team will pursue the Japanese concession by victory) and demand that the Chinese military and police withdraw 300 meters from the edge of the Japanese concession before 6 o'clock. Lieutenant Lieutenant also threatened Wang Shuchang and Zhang Xueming: "The Japanese concession lives. There are more than 6,000 Japanese nationals. If the Chinese army attacks the Japanese concession and kills a Japanese national, the Japanese imperial government will never agree. In order to prevent the expansion of the incident, President Wang Shuchang and Mayor Zhang Xueming humiliated and pleaded, and ordered Chinese frontline commander Wang Yimin to cease fire immediately. However, when the Chinese security team just withdrew 300 meters from the front position, it was less than half an hour, the Japanese army and The plainclothes team attacked the attack for the second time at 6:30 on November 9. This time it was an attack on both sides of the East and West. The general commander of the Eastern Route Plains team, Li Jichun, directly directed the support of several armored vehicles and artillery in the Japanese army. Next, the west bank of the coastal river was attacked north by the gate. Wang Yimin, who had been fighting for one night, suddenly saw the Japanese armored vehicles rushing up, followed by hundreds of plainclothes teams and Japanese troops, while the security team defending the gates had only two squadrons. When the Japanese armored vehicles attacked, they attacked and retired. When Wang Yimin saw it, he hurriedly put all the officers and men who could be organized by the headquarters into the front line to participate in the blocking battle, and ordered: "No one is allowed to step back! People In the position, defending Tianjin with life. At this time, a shell fell on Wang Yimin's side. A staff member immediately suggested: "Please ask the captain to withdraw to the river." "Wang Yimin firmly said: "I am withdrawing from the position at this time, that is, I will die on the ground!"
The head of the team, Wang Yimin, organized the officers and men of the command post to resist, and used the telephone to order some officers and men of the southeast corner security brigade to fight east from the southeast corner and east road, and cut off the retreat of the Japanese and plainclothes teams to the Haihe River. This move was very effective, Li Jichun saw the security team copied from the West Bread, afraid to cut off the road, immediately ordered to withdraw. The attack of the plainclothes team was beaten back. Later, the Japanese and plainclothes teams launched attacks many times and were all repulsed. In the last two days, the security team captured more than 200 people in the plainclothes team, causing major trauma to the plainclothes team. Since then, the Japanese have changed their methods, disguising a part of the plainclothes team as ordinary people, and secretly transporting them to the Chinese residents' settlements to coordinate with the plainclothes team to carry out riots. In response, Hebei Provincial Chairman Wang Shuchang immediately ordered the establishment of the Tianjin martial law headquarters, appointed Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming as the commander of martial law; appointed Tianjin Municipal Security Corps leader Wang Yimin as deputy commander of martial law; appointed Tianjin Special Second District Public Security Bureau Dong Zhifang is the chief of staff of the martial law headquarters. The offices of the headquarters of the headquarters, and the offices of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, are no longer set up separately. The martial law commander is responsible for the martial law in the whole city during the wartime, and conducts close inspections of pedestrians, vehicles, and vessels to prevent damage by the Japanese and plainclothes teams.
Due to the heroic battles of all the officers and men of the Tianjin Security Corps, the plainclothes team was repeatedly defeated, and more than 600 prisoners were wounded, defeating the conspiracy of the enemy, ensuring the life and property of the citizens of Tianjin, and gradually recovering the social security. The public enthusiastically praised all walks of life to organize condolences to the security team; Hebei Provincial Chairman Wang Shuchang also took out the ocean 3,000 yuan to reward the combatants. From mid-November, the Japanese army changed its strategy. Hard attack could not be done, and it was changed to a soft and hard combination. Military offensives could not be done. Instead, diplomatic negotiations were the mainstay, supplemented by military disturbances, talk about beatings, fight and talk, and hit today. I will play small tomorrow, play at night, stop during the day, and the plainclothes team will play less and less. On November 20th, the regular and deputy commanders of the plainclothes team, Li Jichun and Zhang Wei, are gone. The plainclothes team has only a thousand people left. Directly directed by the Japanese army. During this period, it was both exciting and painful for Wang Yimin. Although he stayed up late at night and commanded the security team to fight against the enemy, it was both hard and dangerous. However, due to the support of the people of the whole city, the security team’s 3000 officers and men’s joint efforts, after nearly a month of heroic fighting, finally slammed the plainclothes team. He repelled the Japanese army and forced the Japanese to not be too arrogant in the land of Tianjin. He was very pleased with this. The pain is that when Wang Yimin was fighting on the front line, his wife was approaching childbirth and died because of fear and dystocia. This is a pity. Later, Wang Yimin said: "There is no way, I can't have the best of both worlds. I can't ignore the lives and property of millions of people!"
Wang Yimin is very passionate about the motherland and loves the people. One day in mid-November, the head of Nankai Middle School suddenly appeared in the headquarters of the security guard of Jintang Qiaotou. Looking for the general commander Wang Yimin, he requested to send troops to escort more than 300 teachers and students from Nankai Middle School, which is in the war area, to rush out of the theater and transfer to a safe zone. At this time, the Sino-Japanese war was fierce. Both sides invested a lot of troops to fight. The strength of the squadron was even tight. The strength of a squadron could determine the outcome of the battle in this area. In this case, Wang Yimin had 300 teachers and students. Life is a priority, and the only squadron in the reserve team is ordered to escort the students and break out into the safe zone of Hebei. The Japanese are not willing to fail. At 8 o'clock on the evening of November 26, there were more than a thousand plainclothes teams, plus more than 400 Japanese soldiers and more than 1,000 Japanese volunteers in the barracks. There were more than 2,000 people in two lanes, with tanks, The armored vehicle was the leader, organizing the last big impact and big attack. The battle was fierce. Wang Yimin put all the reserve teams and the police capable of fighting into the battle and decided to fight the Japanese army. The two sides played a whole night. In the end, it ended with the victory of our army and the failure of the Japanese army. Nearly a thousand plainclothes teams died of death and injuries, and the rest were all broken up. Their backstage boss, the Japanese army, was also beaten and disarmed. After 27 days, although the Japanese army continued to provoke provocation, the larger-scale actions were gone. With the support of the people of the whole city, the Tianjin security team repelled the Japanese army's repeated attacks, suppressed the riots of the plainclothes team and achieved major military victories. Therefore, the Nanjing Central Government rewarded the meritorious personnel in the Tianjin Incident. The four-dimensional medal awarded to Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming was awarded the four-dimensional medal of Tianjin Municipal Security Team Leader Wang Yimin. Military, civilians, and groups across the country have sent congratulatory messages and congratulations.Tianjin Ta Kung Pao published an editorial on November 17th, praising the Tianjin security team and the police: "After the incident, the police security team stopped the mob defense, prepared for hard work, preserved the place, and made outstanding achievements."
After this contest, the Japanese The lesson should be accepted, but the Japanese army, in order to obtain straw in politics, protested to the Chiang Kai-shek government through the Japanese ambassador to China. The thief shouted to catch the thief and reversed the right and wrong. Instead, the Tianjin security team, who dared to resist the Japanese, was guilty and corrupt and incompetent. The Chiang Kai-shek government was busy with the "revolutionary" Red Army in the southern provinces, and was deeply worried about the situation. So he accepted the unreasonable demands of the Japanese side to Zhang Xueliang. put pressure on. At this time, Zhang Xueliang was in the period of "all obeying the commander-in-chief of Chiang Kai-shek", and once again succumbed to Jiang's pressure, forcing Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin, who won the victory and won the medal, to resign; forcing the Tianjin Security Corps to win the victory in Tianjin, Hebei. province. This shows that the Japanese can save face. Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin and the public security chief who led the anti-Japanese war, was forced to resign. Under the pressure of Chiang Kai-shek, Zhang Xueliang appointed Zhou Longguang, who is full of diplomatic work, to take over as the mayor of Tianjin. Who is going to pick up the post of Tianjin Public Security Commissioner? Zhang Xueliang was unable to make a decision.So I asked Zhang Xueming for advice. Zhang Xueming said: "The most suitable candidate can only be Wang Yimin. Because I have the same anti-Japanese opinion. It is the same for him to replace me." So Zhang Xueliang appointed Wang Yimin as the director of Tianjin Public Security Bureau.
this may have been the Shenyang Bank mentioned above (in any case, it looks to be a contemporary 1930s bank scene:
Wang Yimin and the Tianjin Incident
Japanese aggression invaded China. In 1931, the "September 18th" Incident was launched in Shenyang. On November 8th, 50 days later, the “Penal Trouble Trouble” was planned in Tianjin, and the history was called “Tianjin Incident”. During the "Tianjin Incident", the Chinese army that suppressed the riots of the Japanese plainclothes team was the Tianjin Security Corps, and its captain was Wang Yimin. He was the deputy commander of the Tianjin Security Command and the Tianjin Martyrdom Command. The commander of the Tianjin Martyr Command was Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin and the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Wang Yimin was born in Liaoning in 1898, Manchu. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to the first artillery department of the Northeast Wushu Temple in 1919. He was a classmate with Zhang Xueliang. After graduation, he was assigned to the Northeast Army. He served as company commander, battalion commander, head of the team, chief of operations, chief of staff, etc. In 1928, he was selected by General Zhang Xueliang to the Japanese Army Infantry Specialized School for further study. Zhang Xueming, the younger brother of Zhang Xueliang, who went to study in Japan. Wang Yimin and his classmates have a very good relationship, especially with his second brother, Zhang Xueming. After Wang Yimin returned to China, he was originally assigned to the brigade of the Binbei area in the northeast. Later, due to repeated requests from Zhang Xueming, he was transferred to Tianjin as the head of the security team. To this end, Zhang Xueming once said to his eldest brother Zhang Xueliang: "You don't adjust Wang Yimin to Tianjin as the security commander. When I am my assistant, I will not be the director of the Tianjin Public Security Bureau." Because the Pingjin and the two cities are very important to Zhang Xueliang, it is 30. In the early years, Zhang Xueliang ruled the political and economic centers of the eight provinces and cities in the Northeast and North China.Tianjin, in particular, is the main source of Zhang Xueliang's fiscal and taxation. It is also the throat of the Northeast Army's entry and exit. When it is stationed in Tianjin, it is equal to holding North China and keeping the Northeast. Therefore, it must send its own person to serve as the head of Tianjin. The Northeast Army went out for the fourth time in early 1930, and Zhang Xueliang sent his second brother Zhang Xueming to the Tianjin Public Security Bureau. One year later, he was promoted to the mayor of Tianjin, but he was still the municipal public security bureau chief.
Zhang Xueming asked Wang Yimin to be the security chief of Tianjin. In addition to the friendship between them, he knew the talent and experience of Wang Yimin.Before he took up this position, Wang served in various military positions and repeatedly took troops to fight. This can make up for his own youngness and the shortcomings of being a city. In addition, when they were studying in Japan, Wang Yimin had excellent academic performance and the first place in the graduation examination. This is rare among Chinese students, so he has an admiration for Wang Yimin. In addition, Wang Yimin was loyal to Zhang Xueliang, serious in his work, dare to be responsible, and brave to take heavy burdens, so he was promoted every year.Wang Yimin often said: "I can't compare with the Zhang family. I am a poor boy. If I don't study hard, I don't work seriously, I am afraid of suffering, I am afraid of death, can I step up to today's status? I got the trust of Zhang Jia. I completely rectified the security team Wang Yimin’s second day of service, and convened all the officers and men of the security team to meet and meet with you. Unexpectedly, I informed the 8 o'clock meeting, and at 9 o'clock, I came to more than 100 people, only Half of the cadres on the roster, it was learned that about one-third of the officers and men were still asleep. Because the first night was not dancing in the ballroom, visiting the kiln, playing mahjong, pushing the cards, and not coming in the morning. The rest of the people just wrote a name on the roster. In fact, there was no such person at all. They were all "empty" by the officials at all levels of the corps. Can a unit like this take it out to fight? Later, after an in-depth investigation, Wang Yimin discovered: This security team was originally a police force left by Yang Yide, the police chief of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. It was called defending Tianjin and maintaining public security. It was actually a group of people who oppressed the people and did nothing. The discipline within the team was abolished, the weapons were outdated, and only the ground was scraped and the soldiers were greeted. The soldiers did not go to the patrols, and they ran the blackmails for the people and did some things to steal the chickens and touch the dogs. Wang Yimin believed that: there were not many soldiers, they were strong in the strong. No matter how many, a regiment can't beat a company with a strong army. For this reason, Wang Yimin reported the impression of the first arrival to the security team to Director Zhang Xueming, and proposed a thorough rectification and strengthening. The security team's five suggestions:
1. All the security guards and soldiers on the books, from the captain, chief of staff, team leader, down to the soldiers, servicemen, and husbands, must pass the post assessment and testing, incompetent and drug abuse, old age, infirmity, illness and conduct. Unreasonable and seriously disturbing the people, resolutely remove the name.
2. The lack of the security team will be supplemented by the backbone of the Northeast Army, and the total strength of the team will gradually reach 3 groups.
3, the "empty amount" in the security team will be filled, and the bad habits of the old line will be removed. In the past, “empty money” was no longer pursued, and if there were recidivisms in the future, it would be severely punished.
4. Renew some old weapons, the ammunition base should be matched, and if necessary, equip some heavy weapons.
5. Strengthen military training and patriotic soil conservation education. In
order to strengthen the military training of the security team, Wang Yimin’s captain also personally served as the chief instructor of the security team at the beginning of his term of office, and recruited from the recent graduates of the Japanese Army Sergeant School and the Northeast Graduated Wutang. The outstanding ones are instructors. Among the four young instructors who have been recruited, Huang Guannan is selected as the chief instructor, Sun Mingjiu, Jieruchuan and Jia Guofu are the instructors. The four young instructors later became revolutionary materials, and Sun Mingjiu served as the general of Zhang Xueliang in 1936. The battalion commander was ordered to capture Chiang Kai-shek in Huaqingchi during the Xi'an Incident and became a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference after liberation. Jia Guofu (Jia Tao) served as deputy commander of the Chinese People's Liberation Army artillery and dean of the Artillery Academy after the national liberation; Xie Ruchuan (Xie Fang) served as the Chinese people The Chief of Staff of the Volunteer Army Command and the Deputy Director of the Training Department of the Military Commission; Huang Guannan later participated in the Anti-Japanese War. Any head and other staff.
Strengthen the Japanese concession intelligence work. Wang Yimin, while vigorously rectify security team, he found a group the size of a traitor in activity at the date of the concession, such as Lee Ji-Chun, Zhang Bi, Yuan Wen will wait while famous Chinese Tong Japan’s Kwantung Army’s special agent, Toshihara Kenji, also rushed from the northeast to Tianjin to conduct secret activities. According to intelligence, Xing Ai Xinjue Luo Puyi, who has lived in Tianjin’s Japanese concession for many years, has not been safe in recent days. What is the purpose of traitors, spies, sects, bandits, and hooligans? Is there any internal connection? According to Wang Yimin’s experience in Japan for many years, there is no good thing for Japanese to participate. Japan’s national policy is foreign aggression. The first to bear the brunt is China. The three northeastern provinces have been occupied by the Japanese, and North China and Tianjin are also imminent. In order to clarify the situation of Japanese and traitors, it is necessary to strengthen the intelligence work of the Japanese concession. Wang Yimin decided to set up a special task force within the security team from the entire team. And the police in the city, who are familiar with the situation of the Japanese concession, and who can get in touch with the Japanese and the traitors, are divided into several groups. They entered the Japanese concession and the inside of the enemy separately. For example, Li Jichun’s adjutant, Zhang Wei’s staff, all of whom were sent by the security team. Because of this, before the Japanese plainclothes riots, they were well aware of all their activities. The head of the army, Yuji Kenji, went to Tianjin this time. The main task was to deceive, threaten and hold the Emperor Ai Xinjue Luo Puyi to the northeast to serve as the emperor of the Manchurian state. The second was to give a command to the Tianjin Japanese troops in the army. ideas, planning riots Tianjin undercover team in an attempt to Chinese people to fight Chinese people to overthrow the Tianjin local government, the establishment of the puppet regime. this will not only interfere with the rule of Zhang Xueliang in the north, but also with the aggressive activities of the Kwantung Army in Northeast China.
in order to implement aggressive plans Yu Fei, the native of the country, introduced his Chinese “brothers” Li Jichun (the famous Japanese movie star, the Chinese singer of the singer Li Xianglan) and Zhang Wei (formerly the police chief of Beiping) to the commander of the Tianjin Army in Tianjin, Lieutenant General Xiang, to serve as Tianjin. The regular and deputy commander of the plainclothes team is ready to succeed in the riots, Li Jichun is the chairman of Hebei Province, and Zhang Wei is the special mayor of Tianjin. And the chief of public security. Li Jichun and Zhang Wei’s riot headquarters are located at No. 28, 2nd Floor, Wanguo Apartment, Japan Concession. In order to facilitate the command of the war, the Japanese also agreed to set up a five-point office of the plainclothes team commander, including the deputy, staff, secretary, military, and military. There are a number of detachments under the commander. There are several to 10 detachments under the detachment. There are 8 to 12 sheds under the detachment. Each shed has 1 leader and 10 soldiers. A total of more than 2,000 people were recruited. Weapons and ammunition are all distributed by the Japanese, mostly rifles and pistols. Each team is only equipped with 2 to 3 light machine guns; heavy machine guns and chasing guns used in riots are all controlled by the Japanese. In addition, there are more than 10 tanks and armored vehicles for the charge. The plainclothes team headquarters, detachment, and detachment all have Japanese consultants, and the size of the matter is dominated by Japanese consultants. The commander, the detachment leader, and the captain were only executed in accordance with the instructions of the Japanese consultant.
The plainclothes team usually trains, and each person is given a subsidy of 4, 6 and 1 yuan per day. When the riots occur, they increase to $1 to $50 a day. The money is all made by the Japanese. Most of the military training was usually carried out at the Haiguang Temple military camp in Japan. Later, many people went on the Japanese school playground and the road. The instructors are all Japanese officers and Japanese soldiers in the township (demobilized soldiers). Training subjects, first hand training, followed by guns, bombs, night battles, street fighting training. The recruited junior officers and soldiers have been training for 3 months, and the time is short. Only a few days, most of them are soldiers and squadrons. In the past, they played a battle and had some fighting power. In addition, the 6,000-day overseas Chinese in the Japanese concession community were all organized. More than 1,000 volunteers from the township formed a volunteer team to help the Japanese army train the plainclothes team, build fortifications, and participate in the battle against the Chinese region when necessary to become a reserve force for the Japanese army. Women set up ambulance teams to rescue the wounded. Every household is informed of the storage of food, vegetables and essential consumer goods.
Determined to eliminate the plainclothes team.
One month after the Japanese imperialists launched the "September 18th" Incident, General Zhang Xueliang, the Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming, who is in charge of Tianjin's local public security, and the Tianjin Security Chief of the Army, Wang Yimin, called Beiping to listen to their security against Tianjin. Report on the situation and the activities of the Japanese army. Wang Yimin first reported the social security of Tianjin, the activities of the Japanese and plainclothes teams, and the rectification and preparations of the Tianjin security team. After the Japanese imperialists launched the "September 18th" Incident in Shenyang, the second target of aggression was Tianjin. . The reasons are as follows: 1. Tianjin is the gateway to the Northeast, and the first big city to exit is Tianjin. It is also a sea-land transportation hub and a battleground for military strategists; 2. Tianjin is the largest industrial and commercial city in northern China, a distribution center for financial resources and materials in North China, and a base for military logistics supply. 3. Tianjin is the rear base of the Northeast Army in Guanzhong. It is the political and economic center that Zhang Xueliang ruled in North China. If the Japanese army occupied Tianjin, it would inevitably shock and shake Zhang Xueliang’s rule over North China, which will inevitably affect the support of the Northeast.
What method will the Japanese army use to invade Tianjin? Wang Yimin analyzes: From the current point of view, the Japanese army cannot take the old road of direct dispatch and occupation in the "September 18th" Incident. First, the strength of the troops is insufficient. Several divisions in the three northeastern provinces are being stubbornly resisted by the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteers. At present, the Japanese army is transferring two divisions from the three divisions occupying North Korea to the northeast. The Japanese reserve team has not yet fully mobilized.Second, the "National League" is in a meeting and is preparing to send a investigation team to inspect the Northeast. If Tianjin is also directly occupied by Japanese troops, it will increase the condemnation of Japan by various governments.Third, the Japanese troops in North China and Tianjin have trained and attracted many Chinese people, including China’s former military and political leaders. They are willing to serve the Japanese and act as traitors. Tianjin’s Li Jichun, Zhang Wei and his plainclothes team are among them. According to the above three points, the Japanese army is most likely to adopt the Huazhihua approach, using the recruited and trained Chinese traitor plainclothes team as the leader and main body, based on the Japanese concession, and the Japanese stationed army as the backing, Tianjin Attacks and harassment in China, creating riots and attempting to occupy Tianjin. According to internal news from Li Jichun and Zhang Wei's headquarters: There are three main points in their attack: the first target is the Public Security Bureau, which is the headquarters of the Security Corps; the second and third targets are the provincial and municipal governments. If these three places are occupied, it will overthrow the Tianjin local government and occupy all of Tianjin. In addition, the Japanese army also predicted that the Chinese garrison on the outskirts of Tianjin would not enter the city to assist the security team in the fighting, because the "Xin Chou Treaty" provided them with protection. If the Chinese government dispatches Chinese troops to Tianjin to fight against Japan, it will give the Japanese seize the excuse, and even send a large army to invade China. The Japanese estimate that their main obstacle and opponent in Tianjin is the Tianjin Security Corps. They originally expected that as long as they recruited more than 1,000 people's plainclothes teams and trained them, it would be no problem to defeat the Tianjin Security Corps. Later, the Japanese learned that the Tianjin Security Corps was no longer the former security corps. Under the leadership of Director Zhang, after a year of rectification and training, the combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced. To this end, the Japanese recruited more than 1,000 people, thinking that the 2,000-person plainclothes team repelled the security team is no problem.
Zhang Xueliang thinks that Wang Yimin's analysis is very reasonable. He said, "The Japanese are right. If they fight, there is a "Xin Chou Treaty", and the Chinese army cannot enter the city. The commander-in-chief will never agree. I am the deputy commander and can only obey the commander-in-chief. If it is only the security team to fight, it is a security issue, it is to suppress the riots of the Japanese plainclothes team, not the Sino-Japanese military. The problem depends on you, if you are sure If the Japanese soldiers repel and can eliminate the plainclothes team, I will agree to you; otherwise, if it fails, it is better not to fight." Wang Yimin said with confidence: "I have the confidence and confidence to repel the Japanese and eliminate the plainclothes team. Zhang Xueliang also asked Zhang Xueming's opinion. Zhang Xueming said: "I agree with the views of a people. Before we came to Beiping, we conducted research. Only by playing, it is the way out; if there is no fight, there is no future." After repeated consideration, Zhang Xueliang finally agreed to Zhang Xueming and Wang Yimin's operational plan. He said: But there is one, it must be the Japanese to get started, we can fight back. We must not do it first. Before leaving, General Zhang Xueliang greeted his second brother affectionately: "Xue Ming, your courage is good. But you are still young and lack practical experience. In the military, relying on a people, he has a fighting experience, politically Negotiations with the same day, Wang Shuchang often studied. Major issues, report to me at any time. After
Wang Yimin and Zhang Xueming returned from Tianjin to Tianjin, they paid more attention to the dynamics of the Japanese concession. Strengthen the training of the security team, especially the night battle and street fighting training. The Japanese army is also sharpening the knife. It has set up roadblocks, erected power grids, manufacturing fortifications around the Japanese concession, inspections of pedestrians and vehicles, and observation whistle on the top of the Central Plains (now department store) and Dongyue Building. Aiming at the provincial and municipal governments and other places. A few days before the Tianjin Incident, the Japanese ship “Tianlongwan” drove into the Tianjin terminal and unloaded dozens of tons of weapons and ammunition for use in the riots. These signs indicate that the Japanese launched the attack. It will not be too long, it is imminent. On the morning of November 8, 1931, the captain of Wang Yimin suddenly received an urgent report from the third captain Li Yinpo: around 10 o'clock that night, Ji Chun and Zhang Wei commanded more than 2,000 plainclothes teams. Under the supervision of the Japanese army, they will attack the Chinese urban areas in three ways. The first route is to attack the two sides of the coastal river from the south to the north. The target is the command of the security headquarters of the west of Jintang Bridge. The Municipal Public Security Bureau; the second road is through the Nanshi, Dongma Road, Jingang Bridge, the target is the provincial government; the third road starts from the Haiguang Temple Japanese Barracks, promotes to Nankai and Nanshi City, attempts to occupy the public security bureaus and Police police station. In view of the urgent changes in the situation, Wang Yimin ordered all security brigades, squadrons, public security bureaus and police stations to enter the state of alert, and no one should leave the post; on the other hand, report to Zhang Xueming. On the day when Zhang Xue had a wedding, it was ulterior for the Japanese to choose this day. Because of this day, the military and military officials in Tianjin had to attend the wedding of Zhang Xuezeng, and Wang Yimin was no exception, which could give the Japanese army a chance.
Zhang Xueming asked Whether Wang Yimin postponed Zhang Xuezeng’s wedding. Wang Yimin said: “No. We are using the three brothers to marry the Japanese and do the same day. They thought that our commanders were all attending the wedding, and the dragons had no head. We will count on it. I use life to guarantee, but also to repel the enemy who dares to invade. As the third captain Li Yinpo reported, at 12:30 in the evening, the bell of the Japanese military camp Haiguang Temple rang, this is the signal of the attack. The plainclothes team ambushing at the intersection of the Japanese concession, under the supervision of the Japanese army, the bee Surging out of the Japanese concession and rushing to the target. The prepared security team relied on the temporary construction of the road to resist. After more than an hour of intense fighting, some defenses could not stand, especially the sea light. Temple, Guangkai Erma Road area. Then, part of the defense line in the Nanshi area was also attacked by the enemy, close to the gate of the command, due to the stubborn resistance of the first team of officers and soldiers, the Japanese army and the plainclothes team could not attack for a long time. The captain of the team, Wang Yimin, transferred some of the squadrons of the second brigade of the General Reserve of the Security Corps to the south and south of the city for reinforcements. The battle was carried out until 3:30 in the morning, except for the second police station in the second district near the Japanese concession. The gendarmerie has occupied the ranks of the Japanese army and the plainclothes team. The first night of the battle killed more than 50% of the enemy, including the Japanese army Cao Changgong and two Japanese soldiers. Krupp undercover team more than 100 people.
At 4:30 on November 9, Garrison Japan commander Kōhei Kashii fighting the Japanese side will see the negative, it is matter of great urgency to the Chinese side the highest executive authority, chairman of Hebei Province and Tianjin Long Wang Xueming often raised The two sides immediately ceased fire, (I am afraid that the security team will pursue the Japanese concession by victory) and demand that the Chinese military and police withdraw 300 meters from the edge of the Japanese concession before 6 o'clock. Lieutenant Lieutenant also threatened Wang Shuchang and Zhang Xueming: "The Japanese concession lives. There are more than 6,000 Japanese nationals. If the Chinese army attacks the Japanese concession and kills a Japanese national, the Japanese imperial government will never agree. In order to prevent the expansion of the incident, President Wang Shuchang and Mayor Zhang Xueming humiliated and pleaded, and ordered Chinese frontline commander Wang Yimin to cease fire immediately. However, when the Chinese security team just withdrew 300 meters from the front position, it was less than half an hour, the Japanese army and The plainclothes team attacked the attack for the second time at 6:30 on November 9. This time it was an attack on both sides of the East and West. The general commander of the Eastern Route Plains team, Li Jichun, directly directed the support of several armored vehicles and artillery in the Japanese army. Next, the west bank of the coastal river was attacked north by the gate. Wang Yimin, who had been fighting for one night, suddenly saw the Japanese armored vehicles rushing up, followed by hundreds of plainclothes teams and Japanese troops, while the security team defending the gates had only two squadrons. When the Japanese armored vehicles attacked, they attacked and retired. When Wang Yimin saw it, he hurriedly put all the officers and men who could be organized by the headquarters into the front line to participate in the blocking battle, and ordered: "No one is allowed to step back! People In the position, defending Tianjin with life. At this time, a shell fell on Wang Yimin's side. A staff member immediately suggested: "Please ask the captain to withdraw to the river." "Wang Yimin firmly said: "I am withdrawing from the position at this time, that is, I will die on the ground!"
The head of the team, Wang Yimin, organized the officers and men of the command post to resist, and used the telephone to order some officers and men of the southeast corner security brigade to fight east from the southeast corner and east road, and cut off the retreat of the Japanese and plainclothes teams to the Haihe River. This move was very effective, Li Jichun saw the security team copied from the West Bread, afraid to cut off the road, immediately ordered to withdraw. The attack of the plainclothes team was beaten back. Later, the Japanese and plainclothes teams launched attacks many times and were all repulsed. In the last two days, the security team captured more than 200 people in the plainclothes team, causing major trauma to the plainclothes team. Since then, the Japanese have changed their methods, disguising a part of the plainclothes team as ordinary people, and secretly transporting them to the Chinese residents' settlements to coordinate with the plainclothes team to carry out riots. In response, Hebei Provincial Chairman Wang Shuchang immediately ordered the establishment of the Tianjin martial law headquarters, appointed Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming as the commander of martial law; appointed Tianjin Municipal Security Corps leader Wang Yimin as deputy commander of martial law; appointed Tianjin Special Second District Public Security Bureau Dong Zhifang is the chief of staff of the martial law headquarters. The offices of the headquarters of the headquarters, and the offices of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, are no longer set up separately. The martial law commander is responsible for the martial law in the whole city during the wartime, and conducts close inspections of pedestrians, vehicles, and vessels to prevent damage by the Japanese and plainclothes teams.
Due to the heroic battles of all the officers and men of the Tianjin Security Corps, the plainclothes team was repeatedly defeated, and more than 600 prisoners were wounded, defeating the conspiracy of the enemy, ensuring the life and property of the citizens of Tianjin, and gradually recovering the social security. The public enthusiastically praised all walks of life to organize condolences to the security team; Hebei Provincial Chairman Wang Shuchang also took out the ocean 3,000 yuan to reward the combatants. From mid-November, the Japanese army changed its strategy. Hard attack could not be done, and it was changed to a soft and hard combination. Military offensives could not be done. Instead, diplomatic negotiations were the mainstay, supplemented by military disturbances, talk about beatings, fight and talk, and hit today. I will play small tomorrow, play at night, stop during the day, and the plainclothes team will play less and less. On November 20th, the regular and deputy commanders of the plainclothes team, Li Jichun and Zhang Wei, are gone. The plainclothes team has only a thousand people left. Directly directed by the Japanese army. During this period, it was both exciting and painful for Wang Yimin. Although he stayed up late at night and commanded the security team to fight against the enemy, it was both hard and dangerous. However, due to the support of the people of the whole city, the security team’s 3000 officers and men’s joint efforts, after nearly a month of heroic fighting, finally slammed the plainclothes team. He repelled the Japanese army and forced the Japanese to not be too arrogant in the land of Tianjin. He was very pleased with this. The pain is that when Wang Yimin was fighting on the front line, his wife was approaching childbirth and died because of fear and dystocia. This is a pity. Later, Wang Yimin said: "There is no way, I can't have the best of both worlds. I can't ignore the lives and property of millions of people!"
Wang Yimin is very passionate about the motherland and loves the people. One day in mid-November, the head of Nankai Middle School suddenly appeared in the headquarters of the security guard of Jintang Qiaotou. Looking for the general commander Wang Yimin, he requested to send troops to escort more than 300 teachers and students from Nankai Middle School, which is in the war area, to rush out of the theater and transfer to a safe zone. At this time, the Sino-Japanese war was fierce. Both sides invested a lot of troops to fight. The strength of the squadron was even tight. The strength of a squadron could determine the outcome of the battle in this area. In this case, Wang Yimin had 300 teachers and students. Life is a priority, and the only squadron in the reserve team is ordered to escort the students and break out into the safe zone of Hebei. The Japanese are not willing to fail. At 8 o'clock on the evening of November 26, there were more than a thousand plainclothes teams, plus more than 400 Japanese soldiers and more than 1,000 Japanese volunteers in the barracks. There were more than 2,000 people in two lanes, with tanks, The armored vehicle was the leader, organizing the last big impact and big attack. The battle was fierce. Wang Yimin put all the reserve teams and the police capable of fighting into the battle and decided to fight the Japanese army. The two sides played a whole night. In the end, it ended with the victory of our army and the failure of the Japanese army. Nearly a thousand plainclothes teams died of death and injuries, and the rest were all broken up. Their backstage boss, the Japanese army, was also beaten and disarmed. After 27 days, although the Japanese army continued to provoke provocation, the larger-scale actions were gone. With the support of the people of the whole city, the Tianjin security team repelled the Japanese army's repeated attacks, suppressed the riots of the plainclothes team and achieved major military victories. Therefore, the Nanjing Central Government rewarded the meritorious personnel in the Tianjin Incident. The four-dimensional medal awarded to Tianjin Mayor and Public Security Director Zhang Xueming was awarded the four-dimensional medal of Tianjin Municipal Security Team Leader Wang Yimin. Military, civilians, and groups across the country have sent congratulatory messages and congratulations.Tianjin Ta Kung Pao published an editorial on November 17th, praising the Tianjin security team and the police: "After the incident, the police security team stopped the mob defense, prepared for hard work, preserved the place, and made outstanding achievements."
After this contest, the Japanese The lesson should be accepted, but the Japanese army, in order to obtain straw in politics, protested to the Chiang Kai-shek government through the Japanese ambassador to China. The thief shouted to catch the thief and reversed the right and wrong. Instead, the Tianjin security team, who dared to resist the Japanese, was guilty and corrupt and incompetent. The Chiang Kai-shek government was busy with the "revolutionary" Red Army in the southern provinces, and was deeply worried about the situation. So he accepted the unreasonable demands of the Japanese side to Zhang Xueliang. put pressure on. At this time, Zhang Xueliang was in the period of "all obeying the commander-in-chief of Chiang Kai-shek", and once again succumbed to Jiang's pressure, forcing Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin, who won the victory and won the medal, to resign; forcing the Tianjin Security Corps to win the victory in Tianjin, Hebei. province. This shows that the Japanese can save face. Zhang Xueming, the mayor of Tianjin and the public security chief who led the anti-Japanese war, was forced to resign. Under the pressure of Chiang Kai-shek, Zhang Xueliang appointed Zhou Longguang, who is full of diplomatic work, to take over as the mayor of Tianjin. Who is going to pick up the post of Tianjin Public Security Commissioner? Zhang Xueliang was unable to make a decision.So I asked Zhang Xueming for advice. Zhang Xueming said: "The most suitable candidate can only be Wang Yimin. Because I have the same anti-Japanese opinion. It is the same for him to replace me." So Zhang Xueliang appointed Wang Yimin as the director of Tianjin Public Security Bureau.
