About This Novel
The espionage novel "The Dark Side" describes that on the eve of the Battle of Pingjin, the Kuomintang garrison commander Chen Changjie and Tianjin Mayor Du Jianshi, who were stationed in Tianjin, both believed that Tianjin's city defenses were impregnable and that the People's Liberation Army would not be able to capture them within half a year and three months. After Liu Ximin, the leader of the Tianjin underground party of the Communist Party of China, received instructions from his superiors to collect Tianjin city defense maps, he finally completed the task assigned by his superiors after a series of thrilling and suspenseful intelligence activities. Because the Northeast Field Army had a large amount of intelligence provided by the Tianjin underground party, especially the detailed city defense maps, the People's Liberation Army's artillery seemed to have eyes, avoiding factories, schools and residential buildings, and accurately destroyed the Tianjin city defense fortifications, which the Kuomintang called "impregnable". The original three-day battle to liberate Tianjin only took 29 hours.
