After the outbreak of the Anti Japanese War, the twin brothers Yu Mingyang and Yu Minghui joined the army. Yu Minghui later joined the Chinese Communist Guerrilla and devoted himself to the anti Japanese battlefield behind the enemy lines. Due to his English proficiency before joining the army, he was highly valued by his superiors and was well-known in the base areas. After the War of Resistance against Japan ended, the three-year War of Liberation soon began. At that time, Yu Mingyang, his brother, was a military expert graduated from the US West Point Military Academy. After learning about the situation of the two brothers, Eastern PLA headquarter sent Yu Minghui to plot against Yu Mingyang. Mao Renfeng, the head of the military statistics bureau, learned that Yu Mingyang had returned to China, and sent Luo Meihui, the flower of the military statistics bureau, Wang Songshan, Zhang Fayun, and other trusted officers to meet him. Due to years of different views on life and the world, Yu Mingyang decisively refused his younger brother's rebellion and a fire broke out. In the gunfight, Yu Mingyang died under Zhang Fayun's gun. Judging from the situation, Yu Minghui resolutely disguised himself as his brother and went deep into the enemy's lair.
