From the partial war of resistance in the "September 18th Incident" in 1931 to the full-scale war of resistance in the "July 7th Incident" in 1937, and finally to the unconditional surrender of Japan in 1945, the Anti-Japanese War lasted 14 years and was victorious. Regarding the 14-year history of the Anti-Japanese War, many people said that if "he" is still there, it may change the history of the Anti-Japanese War, and the Anti-Japanese War may not take so long. Who is this guy? Has the ability to change the history of China's war of resistance? "He" is the "Northeast King" Zhang Zuolin.
Zhang Zuolin
875年3月19日, Zhang Zuolin was born in an ordinary family in Haicheng, Fengtian Province (now Liaoning Province). There are five brothers and sisters in the family, and life is relatively difficult, so Zhang Zuolin has not read a few days, since When they were young, they let people herd pigs and supplement their families. Zhang’s father was addicted to gambling. When Zhang Zuolin was 13 years old, Zhang’s father was beaten to death by a gambler because of debts. In order to avenge his father, Zhang Zuolin and his brother accidentally provoked a life lawsuit. In order to avoid the arrest of the government, Zhang Zuolin was forced to Helpless, choose the grass as a pirate. In 1896, he was recommended by Feng Linge (later renamed Feng Delin) to join Dong Dahu's bandit division and became a bandit.
After the Sino-Japanese War in 11894, the Northeast became a chaotic place for a while, the government was corrupt, and beggars and refugees were everywhere. Afterwards, Russia invaded the Northeast, and the situation became more turbulent. Zhang Zuolin set up a special escort team in Zhaojiamiao to be responsible for the security of nearby villages. Because the guards led by Zhang Zuolin are rigorous, never disturb the people, obey the rules and disciplines, and maintain the safety of the people on one side, they are highly praised by the locals. In 1902, the social order improved slightly, gradually stabilized, and the role of the escort decreased. Although Zhang Zuolin himself has not read books for a few years, it can be said that he has no ink on his chest, but he has a lot of flowers and intestines. Zhang Zuolin knows that in this troubled world, only the powerful can survive, so he decided to join the army.
Zhang Zuolin received news that the wife of General Shengjing Zeng Qi would travel through his own territory. After hearing the news, Zhang Zuolin had a wishful thinking in his heart, and wanted to use this person to complete his plan of recruiting security. Zhang Zuolin first pretended not to know, and arrested Mrs. Zeng Qi and her party. In front of Mrs. Zeng Qi, she pretended to be a bandit. Identity, and said that he can recruit for it. Afterwards, Zhang Zuolin escorted Mrs. Zongqi and her party back, and after returning, Mrs. Zongqi told her husband that Zhang Zuolin wanted to be safe. After listening to his wife's story, Zeng Qi made a decision to "turn thieves into good ones". Zhang Zuolin took his men and horses to accept the editing and became the guerrilla cavalry of the Xinminfu Patrol Police. Zhang Zuolin served as the assistant. .

In this way, Zhang Zuolin's military career began from here. In February of the following year, the Russo-Japanese War broke out. In that era of great turmoil, when a gun was king, Zhang Zuolin, with his own "banditness", gave full play to his shrewd and capable talents. Help the Russian army when the Russian army has the upper hand, and help the Japanese army when the Japanese army has the upper hand. At the end of the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, Zhang Zuolin's subordinates did not damage the counter-expansion, and they were expanded to 3 battalions. The following year, they were expanded to 5 battalions, and Zhang Zuolin was promoted to commander. Later, Zhang Zuolin managed to capture the bandit Du Lisan and solved a hidden danger for the Qing government for many years. In 1909, Zhang Zuolin killed the Mongolian rebels bought by Tsarist Russia. In order to reward his achievements, he expanded his 5 battalions into 7 battalions. Zhang Zuolin's troops became a strong force in the northeast.
911年10月10日，The Wuchang Uprising broke out, all provinces responded one after another, and the whole country was in turmoil. Zhang Zuolin always paid attention to the national military and political situation.When he received news that Fengtian's revolutionary Lantian Wei was brewing an uprising, he promptly led troops to assist Zhao Fangxun (xun), the governor of the three eastern provinces. Zhang Zuolin was then promoted to the commander of the patrol battalion in the middle road, commanding 15 battalions. In 1912, because of the suppression of the revolutionaries, he was banned as the minister of military training outside the customs. Later, because he supported Yuan Shikai to become emperor, he was named General Shengwu by Yuan, supervising Fengtian military affairs and patrolling. After Yuan Shikai became the interim president, he was appointed as the lieutenant general of the twenty-seventh division. In 1917, he seized Feng Delin's military power and unified Fengtian's military and government. In September of the following year, he took advantage of Japan to control the three provinces of Feng, Hei and Ji. In 1922, he declared autonomy, and "Northeast King" Zhang Zuolin appeared since then. It can be said that Zhang Zuolin grew up with the support of Japan to a certain extent, and Japan also intends to support a puppet regime. I thought that Zhang Zuolin would be obedient, but Zhang Zuolin, who was born in Lulin and had ambition, obviously would not.
Yuan Shikai proclaimed the emperor
The Northeast that Zhang Zuolin took over was not strong either economically or politically. In order to strengthen the rule of the Northeast, Zhang Zuolin relied on his iron and blood to build the Northeast into a "powerful empire" in just a few years. After Zhang Zuolin announced his autonomy, tax revenue was no longer handed over to the state treasury, but to Fengtian Province as a support for the construction of the Northeast. The so-called "If you want to get rich, build roads first." Zhang Zuolin immediately decided to build railways, and then established the Transportation Committee of the Three Northeast Provinces, and successively built more than ten railways in the northeast. Controlled by the Japanese army, if you want to transport troops, you must disarm and get the approval of the Japanese Kwantung Army, the headquarters, which makes Zhang Zuolin feel very aggrieved. The completion of the railway gave Zhang Zuolin his own transportation system, breaking Japan's attempt to suppress Zhang Zuolin.Not only that, Zhang Zuolin also complained that the Japanese used the South-Manchurian Railway to transport goods and increased the additional tax on goods, so the Japanese were very dissatisfied, but because the surface was a cooperative relationship, the Japanese were not easy to attack.
In addition to the construction of the railway, Zhang Zuolin also reorganized the army of the three provinces of Japan, invested 20 million to build the country's largest military factory, and was in charge of the army of 300,000. Zhang Zuolin purchased a large number of advanced weapons and equipment from Japan, sent overseas students to study flight combat techniques abroad, and hired foreigners as technical guidance. In this way, the Northeast had first-class military technology in the whole country and even in Asia at that time, and the Northeast Army became the most complete army in Asia at that time, even surpassing Japan. In 1924, Zhang Zuolin achieved self-sufficiency in mortars and had the strongest air force in modern history with more than 400 fighters. You must know that Chiang Kai-shek ten years later, with the assistance of the U.S. military, only reached the level of 300 fighters. How can Zhang Zuolin sit in the northeast like this, how can he not let the Japanese army be afraid.
In addition to his super military strength, Zhang Zuolin has always been tough on the Japanese army, and his unfriendly attitude also made the Japanese army look at this "Northeast King" not very pleasing to the eye. At a Japanese reception, the Japanese deliberately asked Zhang Zuolin, who had never read a book, to write a character in order to make Zhang Zuolin look ugly, saying that he wanted to appreciate the calligraphy of "big handsome". With a wave of Zhang Zuolin's pen, he wrote the word "tiger" on the paper, and wrote "Zhang Zuolin's hand in black" at the signature. Anyone who has some knowledge of calligraphy knows that when everyone finishes writing, they usually write who is who at the signature. Ink, indicating who wrote this.When the Japanese saw Zhang Zuolin's "hand black", they all laughed to themselves. Zhang Zuolin's subordinates saw this and reminded in a low voice, who knew Zhang Zuolin said loudly, "I don't know how to write ink? To deal with the Japanese, it is necessary to hand black, which is called an inch of land. Don't let it!"
For the Japanese, Zhang Zuolin has always been in a state of contempt. Even if he cooperates with Japan economically, Zhang Zuolin has always been unequivocal on issues involving China's sovereignty, that is, he will not give in an inch. After Zhang Zuolin's internal rebellion, Zhang Zuolin, who was attacked by the enemy, could only borrow troops from the Japanese. The Japanese took the opportunity to ask him to sign the "Manchu-Mongolia New Five-Road Agreement". Zhang Zuolin played a careful trick and only drew a checkmark on it. After Zhang Zuolin quelled the mutiny, the Japanese approached him to honor the agreement. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zuolin said that ticking means voiding it, and he did not sign the agreement. This made the Japanese suffer a dumb loss, and let such a strong enemy sit in the Northeast. In any case, in Japan's view, the harm outweighed the benefit, so the idea of getting rid of Zhang Zuolin came into being. At 5 a.m. on June 4, 1928, Zhang Zuolin took a special train from Beijing to Fengtian, passing through Huanggutun. The train was blown up by explosives pre-buried by the Japanese army. Zhang Zuolin was seriously injured and died on the same day at the age of 53. Just like that, This chaotic hero ended his legendary life.
