As the saying goes, "The one who knows the times is Junjie." "Only when a person can clearly distinguish priorities in the unpredictable situation can enemies and friends save themselves and even create a big cause." But although the reason is very simple and clear, there are only a few people who can really do it. However, Zhang Zuoxiang, who was born in 1881, knew this well and he could really break out of his own world in such a chaotic era.
In his early years, Zhang Zuoxiang suffered from cold eyes and ridicule because his family was poor. After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1894, Zhang Zuoxiang's hometown was also involved in the war, so in order to save himself, he went to the distant uncle. In 1897, his brother was falsely imprisoned, and the Zhang family was almost destroyed. In order to avenge the snow hatred, Zhang Zuoxiang contacted his good brother and broke into the enemy's home Chinese New Year's Eve 1901. Later, after the matter was revealed, he went to the local county security team Octagon Terrace. Later, under the mistake of yin and yang, he and Zhang Zuolin became brothers.
Later, Zhang Zuoxiang was born and died with Zhang Zuolin, because the names of the two were very similar and intimate, and they were once mistaken for brothers. However, Zhang Zuoxiang clearly knew his status and status, and had refused Zhang Zuolin's promotion to an official position for him three times. And the two barely had any disagreements. And the most touching thing is that Zhang Zuoliang died after the Huanggutun Incident in 1928. The three northeastern provinces are leaderless, and many people are eager to move. Zhang Zuoxiang resolutely supported Zhang Zuolin's son Zhang Xueliang to inherit his father's business.
At that time, Zhang Xueliang's foundation was not stable, so there was no way to deal with those "old fritters". Fortunately, Zhang Zuoxiang accompanied him from beginning to end, helping him to come up with advice and get through the difficulties. Zhang Zuoxiang even privately said his heartfelt words to Zhang Xueliang. That is, if anyone disobeyed the orders of their superiors, Zhang Xueliang could punish them with warlords. Zhang Zuoxiang will support him unconditionally. But as far as the relationship between the two families is concerned in private, Zhang Xueliang is more like Zhang Zuoxiang's nephew, so there are some things he did wrong, and Zhang Zuoxiang will definitely not tolerate forgiveness. From these remarks, it can also be seen that Zhang Zuoxiang's handling of people deserves the admiration of others. Many people believe that after Zhang Zuolin's death, with Zhang Zuoxiang's ability and prestige, he could have replaced him. But he didn't do such an ungrateful thing. Not only that, Zhang Zuoxiang also paid great attention to the cultivation of his son Zhang Yanshu. Loyalty will always be the first rule of his godson.
Tiger father has no dog, there is a father like Zhang Zuoxiang to lead by example, and his son Zhang Yanshu is naturally also heard. When the country was in trouble, Zhang Zuoxiang's son Zhang Yanshu was bent on recovering the rivers and mountains to drive away the invaders. However, the order issued by the superior at that time was not to resist. Therefore, in order to express his dissatisfaction, Zhang Yanshu also used his resignation to show his firm determination. At that time, Zhang Xueliang was still struggling to keep him, and Zhang Yanshu only said lightly that if the anti-Japanese resistance was needed, he could come back tomorrow. No one expected that two months later, Zhang Yanshu and more than a hundred of his men would form the First Guerrilla Column of the Eighth Route Army. The team expanded rapidly, and he was also given the opportunity to enter the anti-university study because of his excellent performance.
