No. 41, Xitailing

In 1937, Li Kenong discovered that the Changsha Intelligence Working Group established in 1932 had never been exposed. This intelligence point lived in the same building as the police chief. The person in charge had also been a monk. By 1949, it had been in operation for a total of 17 years, and no party members were arrested or rebelled during the entire process. Liu Daoheng came to visit. No state affairs, no friendship, just the Diamond Sutra. He had been a monk and was thoroughly familiar with Buddhism. After several discussions on Buddhist scriptures, Zen principles, and cause and effect, Cao Bowen was greatly impressed and made him his confidant. With Cao Boyen's recommendation, Liu Daoheng received a letter of appointment as counselor of the Hunan Provincial Government of the Kuomintang. I have an identity. Where is the base? ​Liu Daoheng chose the small building at No. 41 Xitailing, Changsha. The neighbor in the same hospital is Director Yan of the Changsha Shuishui Police Station of the Kuomintang. ​Single-line communication, no overstepping, and no cross-talk. The rules set by Liu Daoheng are ironclad. ​ In 1949, Hunan was peacefully liberated. The mission of Xitailing No. 41 Is completely over. From its establishment in 1932 to its victory in 1949, it spanned the Agrarian Revolution, the Anti-Japanese War, and the Liberation War. For seventeen years, this intelligence network lasted until the end in the bloodiest Hunan. Post-war handover ledger: None of the core members rebelled, no core stronghold was exposed, and only one peripheral personnel died. In 1946, the Central Military Commission summarized the underground work in Yan'an and specially set up a file to commend this miracle. Liu Daoheng took off his coat as a counselor of the Kuomintang. This monk who escaped into Buddhism in his early years and knocked wooden fish with his hands has spent half his life on the edge of a knife by relying on his extreme calmness and restraint. Faith is silent, leaving only the coldest legend on the hidden front.
