提要：在六十年前日軍侵佔香港的危急時候，東江抗日游擊隊在港九地區上演了一場轟動中外的“秘密大營救”。在周恩來、廖承志等人精心部署下，游擊隊歷盡艱險，將數百名滯留香港的國內外知名文化人及官員，一批批從日軍的“虎口”中解救出來，安全轉送往內地大後方，創造了中國抗戰史上的一大奇蹟。本文根據當年的歷史檔案和親歷者的口述資料，如實地再現這一次充滿傳奇色彩的壯舉。

Abstract： As the critical moment of Hong Kong under the Japanese occupation 60 years ago, the anti-Japanese guerrilla force, the East River Column, staged in Hong Kong a "large-scale secret rescue" operation, which astounded the world. Elaborately planned by Zhou Enlai, Liao Chengzhi and others, the guerrilla force went through all kinds of hardships and dangers, and saved hundreds of Chinese and foreign intellectuals and officials in Hong Kong from the "Jaws of death"of the Japanese army, safely transferring them to the rear of the Japanese-occupied areas on the mainland. It was one of the marvels in the history of China's War of Resistance against Japan. Truthfully based on the historical records of the time and the information orally recounted by those who personally experienced the rescue, the heroic undertaking reappears in this article.
