Wu Shi decided to go to Taiwan alone
In August 1949, the battle to liberate Fuzhou was about to begin.In order to ensure the smooth uprising of a certain division of the National Army in Fuzhou, Wu Shi, who secretly worked for the Central Committee, took advantage of his identity as deputy director of the Fuzhou Appeasement Office and took the risk to go to the ministry to coordinate in person.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Shaoliang, director of the Sui Department, sent military police to follow him and ordered Wu Shi to return immediately. Wu Shi's heart tightened. Could it be that his identity had been exposed?Unexpectedly, it was Chiang Kai-shek who transferred him to Taiwan to be promoted to deputy secretary of the National Defense Staff.Wu Shi was extremely torn whether to lead an uprising or to go deep into the tiger's den.Friend Wu Zhongxi opposed Wu Shi's trip to Taiwan. Now that the white terror in Taiwan is very serious, the risk of going there is huge.
But Wu Shi finally made up his mind and decided to go to Taiwan alone.Wu Shi hoped that his adjutant Nie Xi would stay in Fuzhou to welcome liberation, but Nie Xi insisted on following Wu Shi.Wu Shi arranged for his family to take temporary refuge in Hong Kong, and then prepared to board a flight to Taiwan. Unexpectedly, he saw his wife and children at the airport. It was Chiang Kai-shek who ordered him to take his family with him to fulfill his duties. Wu Shi could not help but feel a sinking heart... After Wu Shi's family arrived in Taiwan, the white terror in Taiwan far exceeded their imagination. His wife and children almost collapsed when they saw the bloody scenes of shooting communists in the street. The sacrifices of his comrades also made him heartbroken.
