On July 17, 2000, an explosion occurred in the eastern suburbs of Quancheng, and the urban criminal police and fire police rushed to the scene. Fifteen minutes later, a major "prison robbery" occurred in the western suburbs prison that shocked the country. The guarding police officers had a half-hour gun battle with more than 20 armed criminals. Due to the rapid support of the garrison, the prison robbers failed to succeed and fled under the cover of night.
The Shandong Provincial Public Security Department immediately held an emergency meeting and unanimously agreed that the explosion in the eastern suburbs was intended to attack the east and the prison robbery was committed by a group of people. Their purpose was to rescue Shan Ya, but they obviously didn't know about Shan Ya's self-harm and falling from the building.
That night, the Ministry of Public Security upgraded the "7.17 Prison Robbery Case" to the "No. 1 Major Case of the New Century", and Vice Minister Bai Jingyu went to listen to the report in person. Bai Jingyu spoke at the meeting that he could no longer simply call the other party criminals, they were enemies. This was a war, and there must be a huge underworld criminal group hidden behind it. We are in the light, they are in the dark. This is the first prison robbery case that has occurred since the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the face of new crimes, we must have a strategic sense and must catch this group of people in one go, otherwise serious consequences will occur.
"Catching them all is easier said than done," Sun Lijie, deputy director of Quancheng City Public Security Bureau, stood up and said, "Shan Ya is a wanted criminal who has been on the run for more than ten years. We know very little about him. In addition to drug trafficking, what else has he done over the years? We don't know who it was or why those people wanted to break the prison to rescue him. He is currently in a coma, and we have interrogated the other three drug addicts many times, but we can't provide any valuable clues at all."
"No," Director Li Changshui retorted, "Shan Ya and those three people are the only clues we have. We must make full use of them. We should think about how to use them."
Wu Shaoming, director of the Provincial Department of Criminal Investigation, boldly proposed: "There is only one way to break into them, conduct undercover investigations, identify the leaders of the group, big and small, and arrest them all in one go."
Bai Jingyu pondered for a while and said, "This reminds me of the anti-drug campaign in Ping County in 1992."
On August 30, 1992, 1,300 armed police officers and soldiers surrounded Ping County, Yunnan. Ping County is known as the "Golden Triangle of China". There are 16 armed drug trafficking gangs in the three villages of Yinxin, Molong and Songmaopo. There are thousands of drug-related personnel in the county. This is where overseas drug traffickers transport drugs to mainland China. transfer station. In order not to harm innocent people, an undercover team headed by Tang Shanglin, chief of staff of the Yunnan Armed Police Corps' frontline headquarters, successfully sneaked into the drug trafficking family and provided accurate military targets.
That was the largest anti-drug campaign since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was also the only time the military was used to crack down on criminals. Bai Jingyu said that now, it is likely to be the second time. This time, we will join forces with the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defense. We will use all means to capture this group of people and wipe out this criminal group.
That night, Bai Jingyu personally took charge and established the No. 1 Major Case Headquarters, which was personally supervised by the Ministry of Public Security, and the provincial public security departments provided unconditional cooperation. The command headquarters formulated an undercover combat plan of "catch them all in one go". Regarding how to infiltrate this criminal group, the headquarters held several meetings in a row, studied repeatedly, and formulated general working principles and specific combat strategies.
Bai Jingyu said that he would immediately recruit several of the best policemen from the national public security system to form an undercover team and bring them in by helicopter before dawn.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, Li Changshui reported to Bai Jingyu: "The person has been found."
"who?"
"Zhou Xingxing, Hualong, Han Bingyu."
"Oh, who are these three?"
"Zhou Xingxing is a criminal policeman, Hualong is an armed policeman, and Han Bingyu is a special policeman."
"Let them in."
"Isn't it dangerous?"
"A narrow escape from death."
"Why choose us?"
"Get lucky!"
We are already very familiar with Zhou Xingxing. Let's briefly introduce Han Bing Yu and Hua Long.
Han Bingyu was born in the special forces and participated in the Southern War. He is familiar with various firearms, can throw throwing knives, and has strong wilderness survival experience. After retiring, he has remained anonymous and served as the caretaker of the local martyrs cemetery. After 1997, he served as a local special police officer. Honorary instructor of the brigade. Other information about him is a state secret, and even his neighbors, relatives and friends know very little about him.
Hua Long, an armed police instructor, was born in Henan in 1970. He won the national martial arts championship in 1989, the first place in the International Police Kickboxing Competition in 1991, the Sanya Sanda King in 1994, the King of Thailand Cup 60kg gold belt winner in 1995, and the private martial arts champion in 1997. I went to Japan to participate in the K-1 International Fighting Competition (a stand-up mixed martial arts event held in Japan), but was ordered to be called back by the leader and failed to place.
In the morning, Hualong likes to put on sunglasses and go for a run; in the evening, he likes to go shirtless to the night market and drink beer.
At the intersection of a small town south of Henan and north of Hubei, at the junction of the two provinces, one day at noon, several cars quietly drove up like ghosts and stopped by the side of the road. Suddenly someone shouted, "The city management is coming," and there was chaos on the street. Vendors scrambled to hide in every corner. Some were escaping on three-wheeled motorcycles at lightning speed, some were running wildly pushing wheelbarrows, and some were carrying baskets filled with various fruits to residents' courtyards and small streets. Take shelter in the alley. A woman selling vegetables was leading her children and carrying a load. She was out of breath and even lost her shoes while running. The city manager caught up with her, grabbed the scale in the basket and broke it into two pieces. Another city manager, who was fatter, stepped hard on the scale on the ground. Dish, the child was so frightened that he screamed. The other vendors who had no time to run had their stalls overturned. One vendor selling sugar-roasted chestnuts went to argue with the city manager, but was severely beaten. Just as the city management confiscated the vendors' belongings and prepared to load them into the car, a shirtless young man wearing sunglasses said, "Stop!"
"What do you do?" the city manager asked.
"The one who beats people." The young man replied with a cigarette in his mouth.
This was probably the first time in history that the urban management officials heard such words. Suddenly, more than a dozen urban management officials surrounded him angrily. No one in the surrounding crowd could see clearly what was going on. One of the urban management officials groaned and fell into the holly bushes on the side of the road. Immediately afterwards, the young man kicked one of them away, just like kicking a straw bag, and the bodies of more than a dozen urban management officials flew sideways and fell to the ground.
Zhou Xingxing, Hua Long, and Han Bingyu are the three elites selected from the 1.6 million policemen in China. Now they have to walk into a cave, light a torch, and light up the dark corner. We will see many unimaginable things and many strange people below.
Those people were in the cave, and now they were to be exposed to the sun.
Bad people should go to prison first and then to hell.
Cangzhou Prison holds more than 1,000 prisoners, including the most inhumane murderers, the most notorious villains, the most vile and shameless perverts, and the most ruthless robbers.
Cheng Peng, the suspect in the case of murder and dismemberment, Zhu Lirong, the suspect in the court bombing of her husband, He Zhonghai, the suspect in the rape of his daughter, Tang Jin, the animal teacher, and Li Lijun, the translator of snakes and scorpions, were all once imprisoned in Cangzhou Prison.
Where are they now?
In hell.
Jailbreaking is a miracle.
Cangzhou Prison was expanded in 1977. The surrounding walls are 7 meters high, and there is a dense power grid. There is a searchlight in the middle that can illuminate every corner. There is a corridor outside the cell, and prison guards patrol it 24 hours a day. The cell is made of stone, with a concrete floor and an iron roof.
One leader said after inspecting the area with his hands behind his back: "No one can escape from here."
However, the next year, a prisoner nicknamed You Hammer disappeared like air.
There is a sentence he carved on the wall of the cell:
Death is everywhere!
Eighteen years later, a young prisoner looked at this wall and pondered silently. He was Youhui's son.
One day at noon, the prison guard delivering meals told him: "Xiao Youhui, your father has been found."
"Where?"
"In the sewers!"
In 1998, before the devastating flood, a white skeleton was discovered while renovating the sewers in Cangzhou Prison. Bai Gu held a rusty iron nail in his hand.
That nail might mean freedom.
The prisoners showed contempt when talking about the oil hammer, but showed respect when talking about the small oil hammer.
A ?99lib?
prisoner said: "The big oil hammer should learn from the little oil hammer. The small oil hammer is so good, but the big oil hammer is too stupid. He doesn't know that the stench can kill people." ."
The prisoners affectionately called Xiao Youhui "that clever guy".
Within a few days, Xiaoyouhui also escaped from jail.
To be precise, he deserted.
The flood forced some inmates in Cangzhou Prison to be transferred to another prison. Heavy rains washed away the roads, and all 18 military trucks were stuck in the mud. The prisoners on the trucks were all serious criminals. They were gathered in an emergency while they were sleeping, so they all maintained their true and complete appearance.
18 carts, 18 levels of hell!
At dawn, this hell is revealed in front of people. The chaotic convoy took up the entire muddy street. The prisoners were handcuffed together, all with corpse-pale faces and soaked rags stuck to their bodies. Most of them were yawning, and the rest were whispering something. A few of them were tied with hemp rope and were patients. They were wilting and lowering their heads. The sores on their bodies were inflamed and leaking pus.
More and more residents were watching.
A few prisoners who were in good spirits began to wave to the audience and grin. A tall prisoner hugged a short prisoner and blew kisses to the little girl in the crowd. The short prisoner was talking obscenely. .
The prisoner in the lead car sang a song that was widely circulated in prison, and the people in the car behind him whistled proudly to accompany it. The scene became more and more lively. The escorting police officers were busy repairing the road and had no time to care about the prisoners. The prisoners in two cars began to curse each other, and the prisoners in the other car threatened the audience.
The prisoner in the fifth car was taking a shower because it was raining. People can see hairy chests, various tattoos, eagles, tigers, dragons, scorpions, hearts with flames, swords entwined with snakes, scars burned by smoke, the word "forbearance" and the word "hate". One prisoner rubbed his neck and looked up and said, "What a nice shower head!"
Let's not talk about the prisoner in the ninth car. The whole car was peeing and stinking, and there was a bad guy who was laughing and throwing his shit at the audience.
The eleventh car was a female prisoner. A woman grabbed her hair and said to herself: "I think I saw my husband."
The prisoner in the fifteenth car was begging, asking for cigarettes from the onlookers. An old prisoner shouted loudly to the women selling fried dough sticks on the roadside: "Sister, those fried dough sticks must be fried dough sticks, I can smell it. The fried dough sticks are delicious, I will eat this last thing, I think about it, oh, yes It was ten years ago, and I was sentenced to life imprisonment. His uncle's, I have to die in prison, give me one, let me taste the taste. Yes, big girl, throw it up, pick up the thick one, I If you catch it, we brothers and sisters, I won't be polite."
In the last car, there was a little oil hammer giving a speech. He was gesticulating and spitting. He spoke very profoundly, as if he could spit out stones from his mouth, and people kept cheering him. Here is that passage:
"My father and my mother, one is in prison and the other is in the soil. Neither of them are good birds, they are both bastards. I know my mother, but I have never met my father. No, I have met once. A few days ago, I Seeing a skeleton, someone said, look, that's your dad. Tell me what's going on. It was the first time I saw my dad, and he died like that. What, what do you ask me? I came in. I stole something and accidentally stabbed someone in the liver. It was not intentional. I cut his wallet, but he caught me and had to send me to the police station. There was nothing I could do. You can't rely on me. Cut his wallet. , do it; cut your throat, don't do it. I'm good at it. What? Get a job? If I earn more than I steal, would I still be willing to be a thief? My arms want to work, but my head doesn't agree. My mother never taught me what work is. Do you know what my mother taught me? She didn't teach me anything. I taught myself to do bad things. After I did bad things, I wanted to do worse things. Being a thief was the worst thing. If you are promising, you will be beaten all the time. If I want to go out, I have to think about robbing some banks or something."
The scene became increasingly chaotic.
The escort captain ordered the other policemen: "Go and quiet the son of a bitch."
Then there was a thrilling sound of sticks and rubber batons banging on each car, and the prisoners who made the most noise succumbed. The escort captain added: "The road cannot be repaired. The prisoners in the last car Come down and push the cart in front."
More than twenty prisoners lined up, and Little Oil Hammer walked at the end. At a street corner, he was supposed to follow the team and turn left, but instead he turned right and disappeared like a fart. No one noticed him, not even the escort captain next to him.
Did the captain let him go on purpose?
no!
The captain later recalled in his report that I sneezed and he disappeared.
Some things shouldn't be described in detail, and jailbreaking is one of them.
Well, let's close our eyes and see Prison Break in the Dark.
Wu Gengqing used a kite to escape from prison, Yao Yuansong used hair to open handcuffs to escape from prison, Ma Ying used a toothbrush to dig a hole to escape from prison, Wei Zhenhai used a cesspit to escape from prison, Kang Shengping set fire to escape from prison, and Song Haiwa took hostages to escape from prison.
There was a corner of Beijing No. 1 Prison. A prisoner once escaped from there without using any tools, relying solely on the strength of his hands and feet, his shoulders, knees, back, hips, and a gecko-like will. After that, the prisoners in the No. 1 Prison had an additional hobby, and they all raised their heads in admiration during the exercise. In order to commemorate the corner, the prisoners named it "Ritian". "Ritian" means "impossible miracle" in slang.
The wall of the prison in Dongsan Province is five meters high. A prisoner once performed pole vaulting and escaped by jumping over the wall.
There was an inmate in the Great Northwest Prison who killed a policeman, then put on police clothes and walked out of the door in a grand manner.
The most classic jailbreak occurred in Cangzhou. There were five people who escaped from prison, Zhou Xingxing, Shan Ya, Tiezui, Qiu Ba, and Tu Laoye. This is the largest number of people in the history of jailbreak, and it is also the most difficult one. It is not easy for a living person to escape. Shanya is dying and no different from the dead. How did Zhou Xingxing and the others "transport" Shanya out?
Let's first study the structure of Cangzhou Prison.
Like other prisons, Cangzhou Prison also has three sentries. It was impossible to get out of the door.
As mentioned before, the cell is made of stone, with a slight ray of sunlight coming in at noon, and darkness the rest of the time. A guy who was imprisoned for corruption once muttered: "The summer is hot and the winter is cold.There is air conditioning but no heating. "
The wooden bed in the cell serves two purposes: sleeping and making fire.
What to make a fire for?
smokes!
Prisoners have the habit of chewing tobacco. They cannot get lighters or matches. The most primitive method of making fire by drilling wood is widely used in prisons. The prisoner sprinkled the washing powder on the wooden board and rubbed it vigorously with cotton wool. Soon, green smoke came out, and it caught fire as soon as he blew on it.
Plank beds also provide important tools for jailbreakers.
The oil hammer found a nail there.
Zhou Xingxing thought of a plan there.
A new surveillance system was installed in the corridor outside the cell. The searchlight in the middle of the courtyard was cracked by the flood in 1998. It was finally demolished in 1999 and replaced by a large chimney. Below the chimney is the kitchen. The pot in the kitchen is as big as a pool, and there are a few shovels against the wall that are used for cooking. A big pot doesn't mean there's no hunger. In southwestern Shandong and Hebei areas, going to prison is still called "eating eight big liang".
Some prisoners complained: "Bada Liang Company can't even feed the roundworms in my belly."
The oil hammer used the sewer, but did Zhou Xingxing use the chimney?
There is a small kitchen next to the big kitchen, and prison guards often come out with fish. Cangzhou Prison maintains a good tradition of letting death row inmates eat fish before being shot.
Cangzhou Prison has its own execution ground, which consists of a few pillars. In the past, prisoners were mostly shot on river beaches, at the foot of mountains, in fields, and in woods.
The cells near the execution ground house serious criminals and death row prisoners. They saw their own kind being beaten to death through the iron bars, and their eyes were even more sad.
The seventh rib of man is woman, and the eighth is fantasy.
Prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment live in fantasy, in a mirage. Slowly aging until death, the maggots are hungry and waiting for their corpses with their mouths open.
Masturbation and homosexuality are open in their cells, and rapes of male prisoners occur from time to time. There was a rapist who fell ill just after entering the prison. The prisoner with the same number reported to the prison guard: We "beat" him.
Outside prison, he raped others; inside prison, others raped him.
There are two dark rooms next to the death row prison cells. One room was a solitary room, and moans often came out. It was normal to be beaten in that dark room, but it was abnormal not to be beaten. The other room was the medical room. Shan Ya was lying in it, and Qiu Ba was responsible for feeding him water and food, and carrying his feces and urine. Letting prisoners manage prisoners is the civilized aspect of prisons.
Shan Ya and Qiu Ba were in the medical room, while Zhou Xingxing, Tiezui, and Tu Laoye were detained in Cell No. 43. How did they get in touch before jailbreaking?
July 29, 2000, Saturday, overcast.
At noon, when Qiu Ba was waiting in line for lunch, he was so unlucky that a hard object hit his head. However, he became happy again because it was a steamed bun. He didn't eat it. After breaking it open, there was a small folded 50-cent bill inside.
There is a line written on this banknote.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, three dark figures squatted in cell 43, and a little black mouse eavesdropped on their conversation.
Tiezui: "Where to go from?"
Zhou Xingxing: "Did you see the chimney?"
Tiezui: "I saw it, it looks like a dick!"
Zhou Xingxing: "Climb up."
Tiezui: "It's too thick to climb up."
Tu Laoye: "It's not a tree."
Zhou Xingxing: "You're right, Lao Ye, that's not a tree, that's a quilt."
Tu Laoye: "Bedding?"
Tiezui: "Mom, please explain clearly."
Zhou Xingxing: "I have sifted through this prison. The only way out is through the chimney."
Tiezui: "What should I do if I climb to the top of the chimney? There is a power grid below."
Zhou Xingxing: "Climb up, climb down, step on the power grid, and walk to the wall."
Tu Laoye: "Oh my god, why don't you electrocute him to death?"
Tiezui: "Grandma is a bear, you naughty kid."
Zhou Xingxing: "Use wooden boards to make some special pairs of shoes."
Tu Laoye: "There are people standing guard under the power grid."
Tiezui: "The police will find us, and the bullets will follow us like flies."
Zhou Xingxing: "So be careful."
Tu Laoye: "The wall is high. If you jump down, you won't fall into shit?"
Zhou Xingxing: "So there must be a rope."
Tu Laoye: "There is no rope."
Zhou Xingxing: "Tear off the sheets, tear off the clothes, and twist the ropes."
Tu Laoye: "Bare buttocks, hehe."
Tiezui: "Let's do it, God is helping us, it's thundering and windy, what a good night for desertion."
Zhou Xingxing: "It must not rain."
Tiezui: "By the way, what should Master Shan do?"
Tiezui: "He can't climb chimneys or jump over walls."
Zhou Xingxing: "I have a way, do I have to take him away?"
Tiezui: "Yes, this is the condition."
Zhou Xingxing: "What?"
Tiezui: "Take him out, there will be a lot of money, man."
Zhou Xingxing: "Money belongs to money, and associates belong to associates."
Tu Laoye: "You can't do it alone."
Tu Laoye: "You have to let us help you."
Zhou Xingxing: "Okay, what if he can't make it in time?"
Tiezui: "That's his business."
Zhou Xingxing: "Can that Qiu Ba do it? He doesn't know the trick of doing this job."
Tiezui: "Tell me, he has never done anything, including theft, robbery, rape, murder, drug trafficking, fraud, and kidnapping."
Tu Laoye: "Now there is another crime, jailbreak."
Tu Laoye: "One more thing, how to open this door."
Zhou Xingxing: "Tiezui is an expert at picking locks."
Iron Mouth: "I just need a nail."
Zhou Xingxing: "We need three things, nails, rope, and wooden boards."
Tu Laoye: "What are the wooden boards used for?"
Zhou Xingxing: "Now, one person dismantles the bed, one person rubs the rope, and one person looks for nails."
Tiezui: "How long will it take?"
Zhou Xingxing: "A little more than three hours or a little less."
Zhou Xingxing: "In the cage now, outside the cage in three hours."
Tu Laoye: "Hey, there's a mouse."
Tu Laoye: "Good guy, prick me. There are nails here."
Tiezui: "What about the patrolman in the corridor?"
Zhou Xingxing: "It's easy, just throw a stone to distract him."
Zhou Xingxing: "The rope is ready."
Zhou Xingxing: "Are there enough boards? We need eight."
Tiezui: "That's enough."
Zhou Xingxing: "Did you find the nail?"
Tu Laoye: "Found it."
Zhou Xingxing: "One, two, three, let's do it!"
The corridor was extremely quiet. Zhou Xingxing dragged the rope as if holding a dog that might bark at any time. Every time he took a step, he felt the earth tremble. Tiezui and Tu Laoye followed behind, hiding in Zhou Xingxing's shadow, and just like that they slipped out of the corridor.
They met Qiu Ba and Shan Ya at the small kitchen. Shan Ya was lying in the corner like a dead dog. Qiu Ba slapped his butt and growled: "Why are you here?"
Zhou Xingxing said: "I encountered a little trouble."
Qiu Ba asked: "Who are you?"
Zhou Xingxing said: "I am the one who threw the steamed buns to you."
Tiezui said: "His name is Zhou Xingxing. He just came in and wants to take us out."
Qiu Ba asked: "Why did you come in?"
Zhou Xingxing said: "I didn't do anything, I am innocent."
Tu Laoye said: "Just like us, hehe."
A prison guard on guard seemed to have heard the voice and came over. People never found out where the five people were hiding at that time.
People with rich imagination can "see" several "Tai" characters rising in the chimney, and several sinful souls wanting to be free. The rope pulled Shanya up, and then they tied wooden boards to the soles of the shoes and carried Shanya across the power grid. Lightning was probably helping them, but it didn't rain. They overcame many unexpected difficulties and finally reached the wall.
Beyond the walls, there is freedom.
At 3 o'clock in the morning, a house near Cangzhou Prison was robbed. Three naked men took away several clothes and half a pack of cigarettes. The next day, the hostess said to the male host: "Last night, wasn't it a nightmare?"
The male host said: "It's not a dream, our clothes are gone."
