About This Novel
Late at night on June 21, 1949, or at 1 a. M. On June 22 to be precise, an old-fashioned steam locomotive pulled a train with several carriages and quietly set off from the Qinghuayuan Railway Station on the outskirts of the city. We chose the remote Tsinghua Park Station and set off late at night just to keep it secret. Peiping had just been liberated, and the situation was still very complicated. The U. S. And Chiang Kai-shek agents were still very active. The CCP delegation's visit to the Soviet Union was required to be highly confidential. Tsinghuayuan Railway Station is an abandoned station and is basically not used. When the Party Central Committee moved from Xibaipo to Beijing, Li Kenong took a fancy to this small station far away from the urban area, and asked Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai and others to get off here and go to Fragrant Hill via the Summer Palace. Members of the CCP delegation led by Liu Shaoqi also included Wang Jiaxiang, Ge Baoquan, Deng Liqun and translator Shi Zhe.
