Zhang Zuolin was the fourteenth head of state of the Beiyang government during the Republic of China period, and also the leader of the Beiyang Army, who was famous in modern history and was known as the "King of Northeast China". He struggled to get off the ground with both Japanese and Russian attacks, but at his peak the Japanese army had to salute him for three points. He also became the biggest thorn in the eyes of the Japanese army, and he was also injured by the explosives buried by the Japanese army, and then died of serious injuries.
As soon as Zhang Zuolin died, the dragons were leaderless, and his Fengzhi warlords quickly declined, and his son Zhang Xueliang inherited his father's mantle and switched to the Kuomintang banner and carried out the "Northeast Yizhi". The decline of the Fengzhi warlords led Zhang Xueliang to negotiate with the Japanese and the Kuomintang, and the final outcome of his generals was one of the reasons for weakening the fengzhi warlords. The end of his two generals, Guo Songling and Jiang Dengxuan, was very tragic!
Guo Songling is also a well-known figure in the Fengzhi faction, no less famous than the Zhang family, he is large, and he is extremely similar to the Russians. Guo Songling was able to become one of the "Five Tiger Warriors" all because of his superior military talent, but surprisingly, his fame was actually due to his death. Guo Songling advocated democracy and was still a revolutionary, which naturally ran counter to the path of the old warlords.
Guo Songling was a more straightforward person, he felt that Zhang Zuolin, as a Chinese turned to Japan and was very humiliated by the face of his ancestors, and then he joined forces with Feng Yuxiang to oppose him and turn against him. However, At that time, Zhang Zuolin was strong, and Guo Songling was his opponent, and the result can be imagined, Guo Songling failed to defect, and all the old and young were killed by him. Guo Songling had been a senior general under his command, how could he endure such betrayal, he was so angry that he ordered the bodies of Guo and his wife to be exposed to the public for three days at the stadium along the small river, and the remains were taken and posted everywhere, spreading throughout the cities and counties of the three eastern provinces.
Jiang Dengxuan came from a well-off family, was born in Shuxiangmendi, had a high level of education, and he believed that only a country with a rich military strength could be better. Jiang Dengxuan went to Japan before going to Japan and met Huang Xing and others, and also became a member of the Chinese League. After returning from studying abroad, he became an official under Zhu Qinglan's hand, and later came to Zhang Zuolin's banner. Jiang Dengxuan was humble and courteous, and he was very affectionate and righteous, and he would also actively advise Zhang Zuolin on some inappropriate practices.
Therefore, he did not participate in the guo songling defection incident, and strongly dissuaded Guo Songling not to betray Zhang Zuolin, although Jiang Dengxuan and Guo Songling both advocated democratic revolution, but he knew which was more important, he believed that the most important thing at the moment was that everyone twisted into a rope and united. But Guo Songling, like a stubborn donkey, instead wanted to hurt Jiang Dengxuan and throw him in a coffin and abandon him in the mountains. Jiang Dengxuan shouted desperately inside the coffin, the coffin board was full of blood from his hands, and it was really regrettable that the two once good brothers had become what they are today.
