The last emperor on the run
1On August 8, 945, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan. On September 9th, the Soviet army entered the northeast of China and attacked the Japanese Kwantung Army on a large scale. 10, Qin Yansaburo, chief of staff of Yi San Yamada, the last commander of the Kwantung Army, told Puyi that if the Japanese army wants to retreat to Nanman and move the "capital" of Manchukuo to Tonghua, it must start on the same day. Puyi said that she must go, but she should be prepared to leave here in two days. After repeated requests, the Japanese gave a three-day grace period.
Puyi only selected a few personal news documentaries, clothes, medicinal materials and two boxes of jewelry, ready to leave. On the night of August 10, Puyi left the palace with Wanrong and Li and his party in a hurry. Not long after leaving the palace, the Japanese burned down the Jianguo Temple in Tongdemen. The next day, Puyi fled south by train accompanied by accompanying officials and family members. In order to avoid the air raid, I walked around the Meihekou line in Jilin for two days and two nights, arrived at Dalizigou, Tonghua County, Jilin Province, and lived in the former Japanese mine manager's residence in Lizigou Coal Mine.
Subsequently, Yoshioka Kangcheng, the liaison between Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchukuo court, informed Puyi to leave for Shenyang immediately, and then flew from Shenyang to Japan, with few entourage. Fearing that the Japanese would kill him, Puyi pretended to be happy and chose his younger brother Pu Jie, two brothers-in-law Run Qijia and Wan Jiaxi, three nephews Yu Shan, Yu Yan and Yu Xian, and the doctor Wang Zizheng accompanied Li Guoxiong. Before leaving, Puyi comforted Wan Rong and Li, the richest man, and said, I am waiting for you to come to Japan.
Prisoners in KGB special prison
Puyi will be secretly transported by Soviet troops to Chita, Russia. Marshal malenkov, commander of the Soviet front line, arrived in Tongliao by plane on August 20th to supervise and direct the transfer of Puyi. The escort is Captain Ferratov, who has mastered some basic information of Puyi and is responsible for "taking care of" the safety of the "emperor" throughout.

1945165438+1At the beginning of October, on the eve of the October Revolution in the Soviet Union, Puyi was transferred to Khabarovsk. Puyi later learned that the reason for this emergency transfer was that he would become an important witness in the Tokyo international trial.
Puyi was held in KGB Special Prison No.45 not far from Harbin until the spring of 1946. During this period, the Soviet Foreign Ministry and the National Security Headquarters actively made various preparations for Puyi's appearance in Tokyo.
Puyi has always enjoyed preferential treatment during his detention in the Soviet Union. There are rich Russian meals for three meals a day, as well as afternoon tea such as bread, fruit and cream. Take doctors and nurses to check his health and treat diseases. He never took part in labor, and his daily life was taken care of by his three nephews and former squire. Puyi never puts down the shelf of "emperor" in front of people who wait on him and accept their greetings every day.
The mystery of the lost royal treasure
When Puyi and his party left Shenyang, their entourage, among other things, brought two big suitcases. After being captured, the Soviet officials who escorted Puyi thought that the box might contain the emperor's "dragon clothes and robes", but when they first checked these bags and saw the priceless jewels inside, everyone present was dumbfounded. On the way to Chita, Puyi gave some jewels as gifts to the officers and men escorting him, including watches, hookahs, tie clips and other jewels.
After arriving in Khabarovsk, two boxes of jewelry were confiscated. On April 2nd, 1946, Naje, the representative of the local jewelry purchasing bureau, appraised the property in the presence of Captain Kuznetsov, Director of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Gora Simonok, the cashier. According to the records, the value of11jewelry is 473,975 rubles. A 18K gold inlaid with a 1.7-carat pearl ring costs 400 rubles, and a pair of 23K gold earrings inlaid with four 3.3-carat agates costs 600 rubles.

Leave Sue's "application form" and gromyko's "secret report"
In the days that followed, Pu Yi, who was imprisoned in the Soviet Union, felt uncertain about his future and lived in "doubt and fantasy" day and night.
How to deal with Puyi, the Soviet Union has its own plans. There is a "secret report" written by Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister gromyko to Molotov, the first vice chairman of the Council of Ministers at that time.
In view of Puyi's good testimony in Tokyo International Court of Justice, in order to prevent him from being used by Americans and China for anti-Soviet provocation, it was decided to postpone Puyi's return to China until after the Tokyo International Public Trial. 16 August, 946 and 1 1816 October, we informed the China government in the form of memos to suspend the transfer of Puyi, because the Tokyo International Court may need Puyi as supplementary testimony.
At present, part of the power in Manchuria is still controlled by the Kuomintang in China, so I don't think officials such as Puyi should hand it over to Chiang Kai-shek. It is better to ignore the note from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China (1948165438+123 October).
The next day, the report was handed over to Stalin and all members of the Political Bureau. Finally, they decided to postpone the date of Puyi's return to China. It was not until the first half of 1950 that the new China government negotiated with the Soviet government many times, and the Soviet Union decided to hand over "the last emperor of China, Puyi" to China.
