The northeastern warlord Zhang Zuolin was buried many years after his death, why did he end up like this?
In this article, I will talk to you about this topic.
At 5:00 a.m. on June 4, 1928, When Zhang Zuolin's special train back to Fengtian from Beijing sailed to the bridge near Huanggutun, it was blown up by a bomb pre-planted by the Japanese Kwantung Army.
After Zhang Zuolin's death, his family members wanted to build a luxurious mausoleum for him, so they specially sent many feng shui gentlemen to investigate the famous mountains and rivers in the Liaoshen area. One of them, surnamed Mr. Feng Shui, chose Marshal Lin of Fushun City, and he called this place "
In front of the IronBack Mountain, in the back seat golden dragon bay, east of the Phoenix Berth, west of the golden beach
”。
Subsequently, after Zhang Xueliang and his wife went to inspect, they also thought that the mountains and rivers here were magnificent and there were railways, so they decided to build Zhang Zuolin's mausoleum here. However, considering the huge construction of the mausoleum, it was expected to be completed within three years, and Zhang Xueliang first temporarily buried Zhang Zuolin's body in the courtyard of the Marshal's Mansion and waited until the completion of the mausoleum construction before being officially buried.
But in the autumn of 1931, just as the Marshal Lin Project was beginning to take shape, an outbreak broke out."
9/18 Incident
The Zhang family withdrew to Guannei, and the Japanese occupied the Marshal's Mansion, so they moved Zhang Zuolin's coffin to Zhulin Temple for parking. This release was six years, and poor Zhang Zuolin, who had unlimited scenery before his death, lay alone in the desolate Zhulin Temple, unattended, and could not even enjoy the smell of incense.
Later, because Zhang Zuolin's brother Zhang Jinghui defected to the Japanese and became the prime minister of puppet Manchukuo, he really could not bear that his brother was so desolate, so zhang Luo buried Zhang Zuolin. It just so happened that the Japanese were also considering how to dispose of Zhang Zuolin's body, after all, Zhang Zuolin, as the former king of the Northeast, his body was parked in Zhulin Temple for such a long time, which was not the case.
In this context, the Japanese agreed to Zhang Jinghui's burial of Zhang Zuolin. At this time, the squire of Zhang Zuolin's hometown of Haicheng heard that Zhang Zuolin was to be buried, so he jointly wrote a letter requesting that Zhang Zuolin be buried in Haicheng.
At the same time, Zhang Zuolin's old subordinates came forward one after another to request that Zhang Zuolin be buried in the completed Marshal Lin.
Later, after the news spread, newspapers from all walks of life in the northeast published many articles calling for "
Puppet Manchukuo
"The authorities buried Zhang Zuolin. The Japanese did not expect that Zhang Zuolin's burial would cause such a big sensation in society, and they began to feel some fear. Because they suspect that everyone is likely to use their admiration and nostalgia for Zhang Zuolin to negate and oppose the current puppet state of Manchukuo.
It is precisely for similar reasons that the Japanese originally wanted to take back their lives and let Zhang Zuolin's body continue to be parked in Zhulin Temple. However, the problem is that now that international public opinion and people's voices have been quarreled, the Japanese will obviously put themselves in a passive position of public opinion when they treat Zhang Zuolin in this way.
For a time, the Japanese were in a dilemma, and at this time Zhang Jinghui came up with an idea, that is, to bury Zhang Zuolin's body in Jinxian Stagecoach. This Jinxian Stagecoach Is buried with Zhang Zuolin's mother and original wife Zhao, so this is also the family cemetery of the Zhang family, so Zhang Zuolin is buried here, and it is reasonable to say that people from all walks of life are not easy to say.
At the same time, this stagecoach was remote, not as eye-catching as Marshal Lin, nor as close as Haicheng to Fengtian. Burying Zhang Zuolin here basically isolates his influence in Fengtian and Haicheng, and naturally will not cause people from all walks of life to overly respect Zhang Zuolin, which is not conducive to the rule of the puppet state of Manchukuo.
TheRefore, the Japanese quickly agreed to this plan, and then in June 1937, under the auspices of Zhang Jinghui, Zhang Zuolin was officially buried in Jinxian Stagecoach (
It is now Linghai City
According to the Meaning of the Japanese, Zhang Jinghui designed a funeral for Zhang Zuolin, which was neither grand nor simple.
At that time, when I was buried, there was also an accident, that is, I could not find the person who made the flag. Because according to Chinese customs, the flag must be made by the son, but Zhang Zuolin's eight sons are all in Guannei at this time. You must know that a big person like Zhang Zuolin, if there is no one to beat the flag when he is buried, it is really impossible to say!
In desperation, Zhang Jinghui had to find Zhang Zuolin's eldest sister, ask her son, that is, Zhang Zuolin's nephew, to give him a flag, and then the flatbed truck carrying Zhang Zuolin's coffin went to Fengtian Station in a big way, and then Fengtian drove a special train directly to Shishan Station, burying Zhang Zuolin in Stagecoach, and the tomb was selected next to Zhang Zuolin's original tomb with Zhao.
