续外祖父传奇：记远东情报局二战国际特工精英赵唯刚（中英双语版）

âPrefaceâ

The history of war is part of the long history of human development. What humanity wants from the world is: peace. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the World War II Normandy landings. We commemorate these memorable days today in order to let people put their effort for lasting peace in the world! We commemorate these memorable days today in memory of the unsung heroes who have gradually been forgotten for their great contribution to this war: American soldiers and Allied soldiers who gave their young lives on the foreign shores of Normandy in the European battle field, international agents of the Soviet Union, China, the United States, Japan, Korea, and Mongolia in the Far Eastern Intelligence Agency, led by Richard Sorge in the Asian battle field, This also includes the author's maternal grandfather Zhao Weigang and his comrades-in-arms who risked their lives on the intelligence front to transmit information to the Allies on the Far East Intelligence Bureau. These spies not only risked their lives to pass on information, but were also mistaken for mutineers by their own people. They did not die under the enemy's guns, but under their own people's swords; they were not in the prison of the enemy, but in the cell of their own side. Although Sorge was finally rehabilitated 20 years after his death and the Soviets erected several monuments for him (see below), how many international agents and spies were not rehabilitated during these long 80 years. There were no monuments, no medals, no flowers, and no commemoration in their lifetime....

But today, 80 years later, when we revisit at the importance of the victory in World War II, we record that it was a great military victory, but at the same time, we should say that it is also the greatest and most glorious victory in spy warfare! Without the struggle between the Allies and the Axis spies on the covert front, there would have been no victory in the main battlefield of World War II, and there would have been no victory in the battlefields of each country, and certainly there would have been no world peace of which we have today...

They are the World War II Spy-King Richard Sorge, they are the most outstanding double agents in the spy war, Juan Pujol Garcia, the only one to receive both-side medals from Germany and England, they are the famous Hollywood actress who won many Oscars, Greta Garbo, who has experienced a spy career and played the most wonderful and successful role on her life stage during the war, and they are also the international agent Zhao Weigang, who made great contributions to the Great Soviet Counterattack, who traveled between China and the Soviet Union..., Although they did not command a legion of solders to land on Normandy beach like General Eisenhower, there was no victory over Germany's toughest Rommel like Marshal Montgomery in the North Africa battle field, nor like Marshal Zhukov who commanded the famous Battle of Moscow, they laid the foundation for the beach landing in World War II, the success of the Dunkirk retreat, the prevention of Germany's atomic bomb production, and the victory of the Soviet counter-victory offensive, which were as important as the victory on the battlefield, Their names were as loud as the generals and marshals who had made great achievements! When my friend Mr. Pablo Tittel helped to proofread this story, he said to me: "It is very important to record these things so that the legacy lives on. Your grandpa was a very impressive man..." Let their great achievements in the spy war remain forever in the monument in our hearts!
