Zhang was not born rich. On the contrary, his family belonged to a relatively poor local family, but Zhang was educated by a private school teacher when he was a child, which also proved his later love for intellectuals. His father was killed by a local gambler when he was in school the next year, and his brother was also arrested and imprisoned. When he was homeless, he and his mother lived in his grandfather's house. When he grew up, he heard that the nearby recruitment station began to recruit soldiers. He went to see his mother at will, and was later promoted to sentry, but he soon left the army for some reason and returned to his hometown to do his old job. This time, he went home and married a daughter-in-law, who was always with him in the main office. A few years later, he was valued by Dong, the leader of local forces, and joined the ranks of bandits. Unlike other bandits, Zhang, as a bandit, only maintains local public order, and he never harasses the people.
At first, the local people were afraid of him and thought he was a bandit, but then he slowly began to change, and his "good" people were all in sight. At the end of Qing Dynasty, China began to be invaded by many countries, and wars broke out one after another. He also knows very well that only in this way can he break out of this world. Soon, he formed his own team to fight against the invading Russian army at that time. After several confrontations with Russian soldiers, his official position has also been greatly improved, with a total of 5438+09 165438+. 19 18, his main jurisdiction, Fengtian, was appointed as the inspector of the three northeastern provinces, and successfully controlled Fengtian, Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces. Soon after, he became the "Northeast King" Zhang.
After the Japanese occupation of Shandong, forced by his influence, the most powerful Kwantung Army of the Japanese army dared not act rashly. The Japanese army thought the idea was brilliant and wanted to ask Zhang to be a partner. Facing the invitation of the Japanese, Zhang didn't want to form an alliance with him at all. It was originally the territory of its own country. How can you let an outsider invade and "pretend to give yourself something"? Zhang wouldn't be so stupid, but he didn't refuse immediately, but he was willing. Later, I also saw that Zhang had no intention of cooperating with himself, so he was brutally killed. A generation of lean "Northeast King" was murdered by the Japanese army, and he also died, which also aroused a large number of people's anti-Japanese sentiment.
Although Zhang was a great warlord and once had the title of bandit, he chose justice in the face of national justice and personal interests. For such a patriotic general, I think our descendants should seriously remember, not only this humiliating history, but also a great hero who gave his life for the national justice.
