Amnesty 1959 is a work with realistic theme. All the characters in the play have their own prototypes, but they are wrapped in a wrapped coat, which adds a lot of drama. In the play, Chen is a general of the Kuomintang. He was captured by our army in the war. After years of reform, he was finally pardoned.
Chen's prototype is the 66th Division of the former National Army. Song Ruike, graduated from the third phase of Whampoa Military Academy, participated in the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition. He always adheres to the position of unity and cooperation, is friendly to our army, and has close contacts with many comrades in our underground organization, which conforms to the plot setting in the play.
The plot content of Amnesty 1959
1949, when the new China was founded, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China instructed to transfer the senior war criminals of the Kuomintang clique detained all over the country to the War Criminals Management Office of the State Council in Beijing for centralized detention, including Du, Wang, Huang Wei, Song Xilian and other Kuomintang generals.
In the difficult game of transformation and anti-transformation, the ideological understanding of war criminals has gradually changed. The chairman affirmed the achievements of Kuomintang generals in the anti-Japanese battlefield during the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and was deeply moved.
1959 on the eve of the national day, the state issued an Amnesty order. On this day, Du, Wang and others took the amnesty order from the judges of the Republic in turn, which was the first amnesty in the history of New China.
