When it comes to bandits in the Republic of China period, people will first think of the image of the mountain sculpture in the novel "Lin Hai Snow Field", and his sentence "The tiger is based on Lin Hai, and the tiger looks down on Qiankun who is in charge; Eagle town snow field, across the world I call the king", is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, making him seem to have become a representative figure of bandits in the Republic of China period.
But as everyone knows, the mountain eagle in real history is not as big as in the film and television drama, but because the three generations of the family are bandits, so the ranks in the bandit gang are very high, and because he is lightly skilled, good at observing the color, and has a pair of good eyesight, he has been a bandit for decades.
There are three special skills: good marksmanship, good eyes and good legs. It was by virtue of these three stunts that he became the leader of the bandits. Relying on caution and prudence, the mountain eagle was mixed until the eve of liberation, but his strength was not very strong.
When the mountain eagle was at its strongest, there were hundreds of bandits under his command, and when he was found and captured by Yang Zirong, there were only 15 people around him.
The reason for this is that because after the Opium War, China has always been in a chaotic situation of warlord division for more than a hundred years, the war is constant, the people are not happy, and there are countless people who have fallen into the grass everywhere.
Even many of the most famous warlords in modern times, such as Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zongchang, and Sun Dianying, were originally born as bandits, but after growing to a certain extent, they turned into officers and soldiers, exercised government power, and even became heads of state in charge of half of China.
And they, the best of the bandits in the Republic of China, are giant bandits of a certain scale, except for these bandits who have successfully transformed into military and political officers.
During the Republic of China period, there were also countless bandit gangs that always occupied the mountain as the king, among them, in the three northeastern provinces alone, there were at least the following five people who were ten times more numerous than the mountain carving.
Beautiful female bandit humpback dragon
Speaking of the camel dragon, in terms of debut age, she should be the same age as Zhang Leshan, but she died relatively early, but her name was often mentioned by the elderly until after liberation.
Originally named Zhang Shuzhen, at first she was just an ordinary peasant girl in Liaoyang, who eloped to Changchun at the age of 16, but was sold into a kiln and named Cuixi. Later, he was redeemed by the bandit leader nicknamed Dalong in the local area, and married back to the cottage as the lady of the village.
In the years that followed the great dragon around smashing and looting the kiln, under the teaching of her husband, she also practiced a hundred steps through Yang's marksmanship with good qualifications, relying on excellent marksmanship and horse kung fu, and gradually gained a foothold in the bandit gang, nicknamed "Camel Dragon".
During a smashing of the kiln, the husband Da Long fell from the horse with several shots, and the camel dragon took over the position of the big dragon with the support of the bandits. After becoming the leader of the bandits, the camel dragon used his agility to decisively lead the bandits to smash the kilns around while rapidly developing the team, under her leadership, the number of bandits expanded rapidly, and in less than two years, it grew to 2,000 people, and the local security regiment was not her opponent at all.
Because the Tuolong gang had a huge momentum in the Jilin area and disturbed the people in the surrounding counties, it also attracted the attention of the top brass of the Northeast Army, and Zhang Zuolin directly ordered Li Du, a famous general of the Northeast Army who was then the commander of the Jilin Provincial Garrison, to personally lead his troops to encircle and suppress it. Li Du led thousands of soldiers and horses to fight with the camel dragon in various parts of Jilin for several years, and finally relied on eight-sided encirclement to disperse the group of horse bandits, and the bandit leader camel dragon was captured.
On the fifteenth day of the first month of 1925, a generation of Yan bandits camel dragon was shot, interestingly, the camel dragon was a gang of bandits who joined after being redeemed by the big dragon in the kiln, and six years later, at the age of 24, she was captured by Li Du's subordinates in the kiln, and after being captured, Zhang Xueliang and Wu Junsheng also sent telegrams one after another, asking Li Du to escort the camel dragon to his station to show them what the female bandit looked like. Li Du was worried about the mistakes on the road, and did not dare to offend the two officers, so he ordered someone to take a picture of her and hurriedly executed her.
Xie Wendong, a hero of the War of Resistance and a bandit after the war
Xie Wendong and the mountain eagle have been written into the novel "Lin Hai Snow Field", in that novel, Xie Wendong seems to be a light pole commander, completely incomparable with the mountain eagle, but in the real history, his strength is more than a dozen mountain eagles can not be compared.
Xie Wendong was born in an ordinary peasant family in Kuandian, Liaoning Province, and in his early years, relying on his quick mind and hard work, he accumulated a lot of family business and became a well-known and rich local household.
Later, because of the debt for the purchase of land, the tickets of the rich family surnamed Yang in The Zigou were tied up, and they were wanted by the government, and the family fled to Yilan, Heilongjiang. In Yilan, relying on his own ability and the help of his brothers, he became the bao dong and self-defense regiment commander of the fifth guarantee of the third district of Yilan County in two years (equivalent to the later village militia company commander).
After the 918 Incident, in the face of the aggressive offensive of the Japanese army, Xie Wendong led the militia of Yilan County to rise up against the invaders, and fought with the Japanese army in the White Mountains and Black Water for eight years, during which he also received a lot of help from the Northeast Anti-Japanese League.
Mustang, Old North Wind and Doolizo
Compared with the above two northeastern bandits, Wild Horses, Old North Wind and Du Lisan should be regarded as well-known bandits and even rebels among the northeast bandits.
Du Lisan Du Lisan was the originator of the bandits in the northeast of the Republic of China, known as the giant bandits of western Liaoning, the largest bandit gang in the three eastern provinces at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and there were tens of thousands of people in the heyday of his command, across the northeast, and even the Russians and the Japanese had to fear him.
Although Du Lisan was a bandit, he also robbed rich households and smashed kilns and plundered, he was always an enemy of foreigners who pit and harmed the Chinese, and repeatedly fought with the Russian army and the Japanese, with the nickname of "packing foreigners".
The same with him are the old North Wind and Wild Horse who later fought with the Japanese army for many years and acted heroically, both of them were well-known northeast bandit leaders in the country in the early days of the War of Resistance, the old north wind was originally named Zhang Haitian, a native of Haicheng, Liaoning, who became a bandit leader in his early twenties, but after September 18, seeing his hometown being slaughtered by the Japanese army, he resolutely pulled up the anti-Japanese banner, and once captured Ling Yinqing and more than 200 puppet troops in the three daogou soldiers without bloodshed, creating a major myth of the Northeast War of Resistance.
Like the old North Wind, the wild horse originally joined the bandit gang in order to survive in the chaotic world, and became a major bandit in the Jilin region in less than a few years by relying on a bold and excellent skill, with a team of more than a thousand people in its heyday.
In 1942, seeing that the villages under his mountain were burned and plundered by the Japanese army, the red-eyed wild horses brazenly raised the anti-Japanese banner and united the "old three provinces", "dalai good", "Jiangnan good", "bao da side", "black star" and other surrounding bandits gathered more than 4,000 people to take advantage of the night to raid Yanji, eliminating 256 Japanese troops and more than 460 puppet troops, and laying down Yanji City in one fell swoop, becoming the only bandit armed force in the history of the Northeast War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression that had laid down the city.
Today, under the processing of TV dramas and movies, from the surface, the mountain carving seems to be a big person, in fact, it is really compared with the achievements and deeds of several other gangs in the Republic of China, and it is obvious that the mountain carving is just one of the insignificant small roles
