On May 27, 1949, Shanghai was successfully liberated. The People's Liberation Army quickly controlled important areas in Shanghai. Chen Yi and others entered Shanghai to restore order in the city.

When he first entered the city, Chen Yi was very busy and had too many official duties to handle, but he still took time out to ask someone to find out about a man named Zhu Datong. When the people around him got the news, they immediately looked for him everywhere, and they soon got the news about him.

It turned out that Zhu Datong had been executed by Tang Enbo for treason long before the People's Liberation Army launched the Battle of Shanghai, and many Shanghai citizens watched the execution of the traitor.

Everyone was very happy to learn that Zhu Datong was a traitor and had been executed. But when General Chen learned about this, he couldn't help crying. Then everyone realized that Zhu Datong had always been a good comrade of our party who had infiltrated the enemy camp.

Unfortunately, he did not live to see the day of victory of the revolution and was executed by the reactionaries as a traitor.

Zhu Datong studied very hard in his early years. He came from a poor family and stayed in his hometown to teach after graduation. Later, he came into contact with the books of Marxism-Leninism. In order to pursue a greater goal, he decided to devote himself to the revolutionary cause.

Relying on his knowledge of the local area, he organized many student movements and later led a local peasant uprising. However, not long after, Zhu Datong fled to Lianyungang to avoid being hunted by the Kuomintang. A few years later, when he reappeared, he had transformed into a spy for the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

Zhu Datong's sudden betrayal surprised many people, but at that time there were many people in the party who were not firm in their positions. For example, important figures such as Gu Shunzhang had betrayed the revolution, so Zhu Datong's betrayal was not impossible. Zhu Datong actively assisted the reactionaries to destroy the local party organizations, and spared no effort in propaganda to discredit the actions of the Communist Party of China.

His rapid transformation made many people hate him, but what no one expected was that after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhu Datong actually betrayed again.

This time, Zhu Datong directly surrendered to the Japanese. Since 1941, he has continuously issued statements in support of Japanese rule. Zhu Datong also actively assisted the Japanese army and hunted down those armed resistance. His various actions completely aroused public anger, and even his parents wanted to sever ties with him.

Zhu Datong did not care about this. Instead, he wholeheartedly helped the Japanese. Although he betrayed the country, he still maintained contact with the Kuomintang in private.

After Japan surrendered, Zhu Datong immediately returned to the Kuomintang camp. Perhaps because he had betrayed many times in his life, he was not valued in the Kuomintang. So why was Zhu Datong killed by the Kuomintang?

After the start of the Liberation War, the organization activated many insiders hiding behind enemy lines, and Zhu Datong was one of them. His many betrayals in the past were just for the sake of lurking. As early as in Lianyungang, he accepted the organization's orders and infiltrated the enemy's rear by means of betrayal.

Whether in the Kuomintang or under the Japanese, Zhu Datong was secretly collecting intelligence. Not many people in the party knew his identity, and Chen Yi, who had led the New Fourth Army for a long time, was one of them.

As the People's Liberation Army continued to defeat powerful enemies, Zhu Datong and other insiders also began to take action, responsible for instigating the rebellion and splitting the Kuomintang army. His actions attracted the attention of the Kuomintang, and Zhu Datong was unfortunately arrested and brutally killed. After his identity was exposed, everyone felt very sorry. With the help of Chen Yi, Zhu Datong's reputation was restored. He was a true revolutionary martyr.
