In 1932, Zhang Zongchang, the former lord of Shandong and the leader of the Fengzhi warlords, was cursed by Han Fuyu, and although Zhang Zongchang was already weakened and had no power at that time, his death still caused quite a stir.
In fact, at that time, Zhang Zongchang had no soldiers and no generals in his hands, and there was no threat to Han Fuyu at all, so why did Han Fuyu have to take a shot at Zhang Zongchang?
Although they once dominated Shandong, Han Fuyu and Zhang Zongchang were not the same people Zhang Zongchang was born in Ye County, Shandong, and in 1921, after defecting to Zhang Zuolin, the leader of the Feng warlords at the time, after being ordered to "Dulu", Zhang Zongchang climbed to the position of "King of Shandong" step by step, but after the Second Northern Expedition, Zhang Zongchang was defeated.
At that time, Han Fuyu was a cadre general of Feng Yuxiang's Third Army, who had nothing to do with Zhang Zongchang and had not even met him.
In 1928, in order to resist the Northern Expeditionary Army, Zhang Zongchang actually colluded with the Japanese to enter Jinan, which led to the "Jinan Massacre", but even if he was so unscrupulous, he was destroyed by the Zhilu coalition army commanded by Bai Chongxi, and one surrendered and was incorporated.
Zhang Zongchang originally wanted to escape from Guanwai like Sun Chuanfang and continue to stay in the Feng army, but Zhang Zuolin's father and son were wary of Zhang Zongchang early on, after all, this person was wavering and unsteady, and he also corrupted military discipline and colluded with the Japanese Kou, so he could not help but guard against it.
Therefore, the remnants of Zhang Zongchang were rejected by Zhang Xueliang into the northeast, and even legend has it that Zhang Zuolin left an order before his death to prevent Zhang Zongchang's troops from harming the northeast.
At the end of Zhang Zongchang's road, Han Fuyu, who served as the commander of the 20th Division in the Third Army of the Northern Expeditionary Army, showed outstanding combat bravery in the Second Northern Expedition, defeated the Feng army in the Central Plains, and became the first person in Feng Yuxiang's army to rush to Beiping Nanyuan.
After the war, with his outstanding military achievements, Han Fuyu became the head of Henan,But Feng Yuxiang felt that Han Fuyu was a bit drifty shortly thereafter, removed him from his division commander post, and prepared to cut his military power.
In the 1929 Jiang-Feng War, Han Fuyu defected to Support Nanjing, formally rebelled against Feng, and soon became the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army, but at that time, Han Fuyu was still stationed in Henan and did not touch Shandong.
In the Battle of the Central Plains in 1930, Han Fuyu was ordered to lead the Third Route Army to meet the combined forces of Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan, and shortly after defeating the combined forces of Feng Yan, Han Fuyu was transferred to Shandong and became the main family of Shandong.
Han Fuyu was extremely wary of outsiders early on, and in order to prevent Jiang's influence on Shandong, he even sent people to assassinate the personnel sent by Chen Lifu, and in order to maintain his monopoly in Shandong, Han Fuyu did everything he could.
When Zhang Zongchang was in charge of Shandong, the horizontal conquest was a tyrannical crime, and Compared with it, Han Fuyu was not much better or worse, and under the management of Han Fuyu, Shandong became a "Han Family Kingdom" that could not be contaminated by external forces.
After Zhang Zongchang, who lost his speech after drinking and blew the cowhide, which killed himself, Zhang Xueliang was very worried that Zhang Zongchang, who had a previous crime, colluded with the Japanese Kou, so in 1932 he invited him to return to China to live in the Iron Lion Hutong in Beiping.
Logically, Zhang Zongchang has long lost his former scenery, honesty is the way to survive, but his thief's heart is not dead, or fantasize about a comeback all day, but this thought has brought him disasters.
In August 1932, Zhang Xueliang, as the "chairman of the North China Army Branch", convened a meeting of the leaders of the various armies, during which time Zhang Zongchang officially became acquainted with Han Fuyu.
Under the mediation of Shi Yousan, Zhang Zongchang, Han Fuyu, Yu Xuezhong and Zhang Xueliang even became brothers, and on the surface it seemed that the relationship was quite good.
But Zhang Zongchang, a person, dared to open a dye shop by giving a few colors.
At the cocktail party, Zhang Zongchang drank some wine and began to boast: "Many of my old subordinates are now scattered all over Shandong, and as long as I raise my arms, I can immediately reassemble a new team." ”
Zhang Zongchang's words were listened to by Han Fuyu on the side, and Han Fuyu suddenly killed his heart, knowing that Han Fuyu dared to move for his position in Shandong, even the people of the Nanjing faction dared to move, let alone a warlord in the field.
Borrowing a knife to kill people, Han Fuyu finally got rid of Zhang Zongchang Zhang Zongchang's words sounded like a cow skin, but Han Fuyu, in line with the principle of preferring to be indulgent, would never let Zhang Zongchang go, he was silent on the surface, but behind his back, he began to plan, but Han Fuyu did not intend to do it himself.
Han Fuyu thought that in 1927, when Feng Yuxiang was fighting with the Zhilu Coalition Army, Liu Zhenhua, who was originally a local warlord, served as the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Front Army of the Second Army, and Zheng Jinsheng, who was born in the Northwest Army, was only a deputy commander-in-chief, but later Liu Zhenhua defected and bundled Zheng Jinsheng to Zhang Zongchang, and as a result, he was killed, and Zheng Jinsheng was Han Fuyu's former colleague.
Han Fuyu sent people to secretly contact Zheng Jinsheng's son Zheng Jicheng, instigating him to avenge his father, and providing him with Zhang Zongchang's daily travel plan and various conveniences, which Zhang Zongchang did not know about.
On September 7, 1932, Zhang Zongchang, who had returned to his hometown in Shandong to visit the tomb, was invited to Jinan and was warmly received by Han Fuyu, but just as Han Fuyu was sending Zhang Zongchang to the station, Zheng Jicheng suddenly appeared and shot Zhang Zongchang, causing him to die on the spot.
Subsequently, Han Fuyu also took Zheng Jicheng into custody under the pretense of feeling sorry, and then ran along feng Yuxiang and others to get off the donkey and release him, And Han Fuyu quietly cleaned his hands and got rid of Zhang Zongchang.
