He was Chiang Kai-shek's relatives, married 12 wives, and married a female student at the age of 90
During the feudal Qing Dynasty, it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, but in the Republic of China period, monogamy was gradually promoted, but warlords everywhere were powerful and powerful, still three wives and four concubines, and even some wives and concubines were as many as 12 wives.
This person is the Sichuan warlord Yang Sen, and everyone may have heard of this person, because he was once also known as an anti-Japanese hero, which is an undeniable historical fact.
In 1937, when the all-out anti-Japanese war broke out, Yang Sen led his subordinates from Sichuan to Shanghai to resist Japan, and more than 200,000 people along the way spontaneously sent them off on the day of going out, which can be said to be a rare scene.
Yang Sen naturally did not live up to the hopes of the people, in the Battle of Songhu in Shanghai, he led his troops and the Japanese army to fight for 5 days and nights, held the position, until the arrival of the defending troops, he led 18,000 Sichuan troops, more than 7,000 casualties.
We must know that Yang Sen is not a descendant of Chiang Kai-shek, and his weapons and equipment are naturally relatively poor, but under such circumstances, his division is known as one of the five most capable divisions on the Songhu battlefield.
This battle also impressed Chiang Kai-shek, personally ordered the priority to supplement Yang Sen's equipment, and later promoted Yang Sen to be the commander-in-chief of the 27th Group Army, and also served as the commander of the 20th Army, after which Yang Sen participated in the Battle of Wuhan and the Three Battles of Changsha.
If Yang Sen had died in the anti-Japanese battlefield at that time, then he would have been famous in history and admired by future generations, but he did not, and he still had a long life, which was a life of mixed reputation.
In fact, in the early years of Yang Sen in Sichuan was already notorious, like other warlords, Yang Sen in Sichuan to expand his strength, in addition to greed for money he was also lustful, he married a total of 12 wives, gave birth to 43 children.
It is strange that he actively responded to the "New Deal" in Sichuan, abolished feudal bad habits, and abolished women's foot binding, which is indeed a great thing, but in the abolition of feudal marriage, it has been criticized a lot, because he has 12 wives.
Later, in the War of Resistance Against Japan, he took Chiang Kai-shek and married his third daughter to Chiang Kai-shek's nephew Zhu Peifeng, thus becoming a relative of Chiang Kai-shek and stabilizing his position.
During the Liberation War, Liu Bocheng attacked Sichuan, and he actually begged Liu Bocheng to slow down the attack so that he could transfer his family property, which was simply ridiculous, and finally Yang Sen followed Chiang Kai-shek and left the mainland.
After arriving in Taiwan, Yang Sen was covered by Chiang Kai-shek, life was very moist, and at the age of 90, he also married a beautiful female student and gave birth to a daughter, which has always been sick and dirty, and in 1977, yang Sen died in Taiwan at the age of 93.
