The Li Yunlong introduced to you today is not Li Yunlong in the divine drama, but a well-known knifeman in Guanzhong.
Li Yunlong, who was born in Lintong, Shaanxi, is also called Li Huchen. In his early years, he took a group of brothers with him and formed the Weibei Eighteen KnifeMen in the Weibei area. In the warlord melee of the Republic of China, Li Yunlong led these brothers to fight the warlords in Shaanxi, and in 1925, defeated the old warlords, and Li Yunlong also became a real power figure in Shaanxi Province.
However, the reactionary warlord soon made a comeback, and the great bandit Liu Zhenhua, with the support of Wu Peifu, raised an army to break into Tongguan and besieged the city of Xi'an. Li Yunlong, who was trapped in Xi'an, immediately asked Yang Hucheng for help, and soon, Yang Hucheng led his Third Division into Xi'an and fought alongside Li Yunlong. There were 70,000 people in Liu Zhenhua's troops besieging the city, while Li Yunlong only had more than 10,000 people to defend the city, and in the case of the enemy and the enemy, Yang Hucheng came to support, and Li Yunlong had some concerns, fearing that Yang Hucheng was overzealous, and that he would take advantage of the opportunity to annex his troops. In order to dispel Li Yunlong's concerns, Yang Hucheng was willing to combine his troops into the Shaanxi Army, with Li Yunlong as the commander-in-chief and Yang Hucheng as deputy commander-.
In this way, Yang Hucheng and Li Yunlong fought side by side for eight months, and then Feng Yuxiang sent troops to relieve the siege, and Liu Zhenhuacai was defeated. Continuing the good story of "the two tigers defending Chang'an", Li Yunlong, who guarded Xi'an, was soon defeated by Feng Yuxiang and bid farewell to the stage of history. The remnants were absorbed by the high-level, and the high-level asked Li Yunlong to fight the Red Army, but Li Yunlong was unwilling and chose to return to his hometown and leave the army.
During the Liberation War, Hu Zongnan, who was entrenched in the great northwest, wanted to invite Li Yunlong out of the mountains, but Li Yunlong categorically refused, and after the collapse, Hu Zongnan wanted to kidnap Li Yunlong and go with him, but he cleverly avoided it. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Yunlong remained in Shaanxi and died in 1954.
