However, their experiences after being arrested were completely different.
He was well-connected within the department, so he was quickly released on bail by an old friend of his, who was also the director of the Shanghai Social Affairs Bureau at the time.
However, because he was in a lowly position within the Kuomintang and had no backers, no one was able to rescue him. He was subsequently imprisoned for more than a year, during which he was tortured and humiliated by colleagues from the Kuomintang and the Party Affairs Investigation Division.
, even in the end, it was his wife Ye Qing who sacrificed his life to save him, and he was able to escape from prison and regain his life.
Of course, it is precisely because of this incident that he has always been "grudgeful" to the Kuomintang, so now that he betrays the Kuomintang, he has no guilt at all.
Even when he thinks about being able to deal with people from the Kuomintang in the future, especially those from the Central Unification Party, he feels inexplicable joy in his heart.
After Ding Mo Village was released, it seemed that all the bad luck had been washed away and his fortune began to rise.
In 1934, he served as the third director of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Kuomintang Military Commission.
Although his seniority in the Kuomintang can only be regarded as a "little brother" compared to that of Xu Kejun, the first division chief, and Dai Li, the second division chief, he came from behind and even had the same status as Dai Li and Xu Kejun.
Not much different.
At this point, Dingmo Village seemed to have found its own world, and from then on it lived a life of feasting, entertainment, and extravagance.
In addition, he is very familiar with the operating rules of the Red Party and the form of underground organizations, so he has repeatedly cracked the underground organizations of the Red Party, so his official rank has been promoted one after another.
Suddenly, Dingmo Village felt a little proud of the spring breeze, and its life became more and more nourishing.
But all this came to an end last year. With the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, the Kuomintang troops were retreating steadily on the frontal battlefield. The north fell one after another, and eventually even the capital Nanjing was lost.
Naturally, Dingmo Village also followed the Kuomintang's westward retreat from Nanjing to Wuhan.
However, because it was during the war, his income also decreased a lot. With the decrease in income, the quality of life was naturally no longer comparable to what it was in Nanjing, and even plummeted.
In addition, because of the war, many things could not be said openly, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
It was not until April this year that Zhang Kaiyin, vice chairman of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbian District Government of the Red Party, fled to Hankou and claimed to break away from the Red Party.
Because Ding Mocun was a member of the Red Party before, the Chen brothers thought that he might have something in common with Zhang Kaiyin, so they decided to send him to do the reception work for Zhang Kaiyin, and at the same time find out Zhang Kaiyin's ideological trends and persuade him.
It is used by the Chen brothers.
After Ding Mocun received the mission, he naturally fulfilled his mission and completed the mission very well.
Within two days, he made clear the reasons for Zhang Kaiyin's defection and his current ideological state, and reported it to the Chen brothers, which also received praise from the Chen brothers.
But when Zhang Kaiyin arrived in Wuhan, Chang Shenkai originally planned to send Dai Li to take care of Zhang Kaiyin's life and talk to Zhang Kaiyin at the same time.
But then the Chen brothers approached Chang Shenkai, which made Chang Shenkai temporarily change his mind, and then handed Zhang Kaiyin over to the Chen brothers and put them in charge.
In this regard, Dai Li may have been jealous of Ding Mo Village, or wanted to vent his dissatisfaction with the Chen brothers, so he secretly sent someone to the Finance Department to check the accounts.
In the end, it was discovered that Dingmo Village was extravagant when receiving Zhang Kaiyin, and also enriched himself by underpaying for more, embezzling nearly 5,000 yuan in public funds in total.
Dai Li was secretly happy after learning the news, and then bypassed the Chen brothers and reported the matter directly to Chang Shenkai.
Although corruption was already common within the Kuomintang at this time, and under normal circumstances, Chang Shenkai would turn a blind eye to such things.
But now during the war, in order to rectify party discipline and military discipline, Chang Shenkai once issued an order that all government officials who commit corruption must be severely punished regardless of the amount.
Therefore, after Chang Shenkai saw the report sent by Dai Li, he was very angry for a moment, so he directly ordered that the matter must be investigated strictly.
In the end, Dingmo Village was investigated and punished for this matter.
Subsequently, Chang Shenkai canceled the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission on the grounds that the spy rule must be strengthened during the Anti-Japanese War, and the Kuomintang's military unification and central unification were officially separated.
Dai Li and Xu Kejun were appointed as deputy directors of the military commander and central commander respectively. However, the three divisions where Ding Mo Village was located were withdrawn. Ding Mo Village was also immediately removed from the position of director, leaving only the vacant title of major general.
After he learned the news, he immediately found some people to inquire about the situation in Dingmo Village.
According to the information he gathered from his fellow villagers in Dingmo Village, Dingmo Village also felt a little resentful after learning that its three offices had been withdrawn and that he had been dismissed from his post. The reason for this was actually Dai Li's "imperial complaint"
At heart.
But now that Dai Li is powerful and has the trust of Chang Shenkai, he can only do nothing!
However, Ding Mocun didn't want to continue carrying him in Wuhan. After all, that place was a completely sad place for him.
In addition, Ding Mocun had severe tuberculosis and stomach problems, and his heart was not very good, so he took a long leave on the pretext of medical treatment, and then ran directly to Hong Kong.
However, after Ding Mocun settled in Hong Kong, he still felt very uncomfortable. In addition, he had always been used to spending a lot of money, so he was somewhat stretched in terms of money. Therefore, he often scolded Chang Kaishen for being unfair in private.
And this also created an opportunity for myself to win over this person.
Although it is said that Dingmo Village is currently "recuperating from illness", this person is still quite well-connected within the Party Affairs Investigation Office, and can be called one of the veterans of the Party Affairs Investigation Office.
Therefore, as long as Ding Mocun comes to Shanghai and works with him, he will definitely have a lot of followers when he ascends to the top and shouts.
It was precisely because of this that he had the idea of inviting Ding Mocun to come to Shanghai, and then the two of them would work together to "do something big".
Of course, as Ye Qing said, his influence is far less than that of Ding Mo Cun, so if Ding Mo Cun comes to Shanghai and he works with him, he will most likely become his subordinate.
.
But he had already thought of a countermeasure for this matter.
In his own eyes, although Ding Mocun is an old wolf, he is actually a fierce tiger.
The old wolf is cunning, but in the end he will not dare to fight the tiger!
