I want to know what kind of person Xie Wendong was during the War of Liberation.

Anyone who has seen "Lin Yuan" remembers that there was a commander Xie. This Xie Wendong is a big shot and a very complicated person. He used to be a big landlord in yilan county, Heilongjiang Province. After the Japanese occupied the Northeast, he also violated the interests of the landlords. Xie Wendong took part in the Tulongshan uprising of Yilan people against Japanese invaders, was elected as the leader, and raised the anti-Japanese flag. Later, he led troops to join the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition, which was well equipped and became an important force in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition. Xie Wendong was the commander of the Eighth Army of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and became a famous anti-Japanese hero. Later, he surrendered to the Japanese and became a big traitor. When the Japanese surrendered, he pulled up a team of thousands of people and became a bandit. When the Soviet Red Army marched into the Northeast, a Lian Hongjun was stationed near Xiebu. Xie took a fancy to the advanced weapons and equipment of the Soviet Union, which made people get these Soviet soldiers who loved to drink as drunk as a fiddler, and then stripped off more than 100 Red Army soldiers and buried them alive. Xie Wendong accepted Chiang Kai-shek's appointment and became the northeast police commander, who was also the producer. At this point, Xie Wendong became the enemy of the northeast people.

In order to destroy the gangs in Xie Wendong, the People's Liberation Army launched an arduous battle in the snowy area near the sea. The 359 Brigade, once famous for reclaiming land in Nanniwan, is the main force to wipe out Xie Wendong. After several fierce battles, the main force of Xie bandits was wiped out, leaving only a few bandits to escape into the deep mountains and forests. In order to publicize the PLA's combat course, Comrade Xu, then the deputy director of Northeast Film Studio (later changchun film studio), followed the 359th Brigade to fight bandits into the mountains, and prepared to make a documentary called "Capture alive". Unexpectedly, this camera turned out to be a weapon to capture Xie Wendong alive, and Xie Wendong surrendered to this camera.

It was the winter of 1946, and the Mudanjiang area was covered with ice and snow, and the temperature was MINUS 30 degrees Celsius. Comrade Xu, with his machine on his back, followed a platoon of bandits in the beautiful forest. At noon, the platoon leader ordered a rest for dinner, and everyone made a fire under a sheltered slope. Xu also turned the camera that was too cold to turn to the fire. Suddenly, the soldiers on guard came to report that several people's footprints had been found in front. It is impossible for ordinary people to come to the mountains in this weather. The footprints must have been trampled by robbers. The platoon leader ordered a scattered search. After about twenty minutes, I saw a fat man kneeling on the ground and mumbling prayers in a small temple. The soldiers ordered them to raise their hands to disarm, but these people not only refused to listen, but also shot at our soldiers. After a gun battle, two bandits were knocked down, leaving a fat man to continue fighting against a big tree. The soldiers bypassed it in several ways. Xu also rushed up at the flying bullets.

Xu pointed the camera at the bandit and turned on the machine. The fat man was shooting at a tree when he suddenly saw a large caliber "weapon" aimed at him. He was so scared that he trembled all over and the gun fell into the snow. The big man involuntarily raised his hands for the camera. The soldiers went up and tied the man firmly. This man looks like a bandit Xie Wendong.

Although Xie Wendong is a battle-hardened man, he has never seen such an "advanced weapon" as a camera. He was really scared at that time. Because he surrendered to the camera, this scene happened to be filmed in the camera.
