Zhang Zuolin was born into a poor peasant family since childhood, participated in the Sino-Japanese War, threw himself into the green forest, and was later recruited by him to suppress the bandit forces, and then eliminated the Mongolian plague, maintained the unity of the country, and gradually promoted, successively served as the Overseer of Fengtian And the Inspector of the Three Eastern Provinces, etc., known as the "King of the Northeast", and became the leader of the Beiyang Army.
It turned out that Zhang Zuolin climbed to such a high position, and it was not a smooth ride, which could be described as quite bumpy. Zhang Zuolin lost his father at an early age, lived with his mother, sold burnt cakes, learned carpentry, lived on the streets, and finally became a veterinarian, originally living on this, did not expect to be wronged and beaten, and almost died. It was at this turning point that the Sino-Japanese War broke out, and Zhang Zuolin resolutely joined the army and embarked on the road of career.
In the Shuai Mansion, the person who knows Zhang Zuolin's diet the most, in addition to Zhang Xueliang, belongs to the chef park Toyota in the palace. Park Toyota once said: There is a rule in the house, no matter who it is at the meal, ask for extra dishes to pay for themselves, remember once, the fourth aunt (Xu) brought the guests to the house, she paid for a hot pot; one summer at more than nine o'clock in the evening, when Zhang Dashuai was outside to cool off, he heard a noise in the back kitchen, went to the back kitchen and asked loudly, Who is this cooking for? The soldier hesitated for a long time before replying that it was the eldest wife (Lu). After hearing the soldier's answer, Zhang Dashuai said loudly: In the future, no matter who it is, even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is not allowed to cook after eight o'clock. Therefore, the young masters had to eat rotten eggs and silkworm pupae.
As for silkworm pupae, Zhang Zuolin's favorite food is the dry sautéed cocoon pupae, its protein content is extremely high, and it also has a great effect in medicinal use, it can kill insects and cure chancre, adjust metabolism, and prevent three highs, so Zhang Zuolin loves this dish very much. But for the family, the smelly salted duck eggs smell bad, the silkworm pupae looks so disgusting, and the family does not dare to say that they do not eat. Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Zuolin's beloved son, saw these 2 dishes, usually looking for opportunities and hiding far away.
Wuchang revolted and led troops into the towns of Fengtian Province to suppress the revolutionaries. In 1912, he was named minister of military training outside Guanwai for suppressing the revolutionaries. Yuan Shikai became the commander of the 27th Division after serving as the provisional president. In 1915, he was summoned to Beijing by Yuan and expressed his support for the "Speed Zheng Da position". Yuan Shikai was proclaimed empress dowager, and was also made a viscount and a general of Shengwu, and supervised the military affairs of Fengtian and the inspector. In 1916, Duan Zhigui left Fengfeng and served as the inspector of Fengtian Military Affairs and Inspector General Shengwu. He is in charge of the Northeast
Zhang Zuolin did not give in to the Japanese military, and this "bearded" generation of "Hu Shuai" was not useless; he ruled the army well, and Zhang Zongchang, a famous soldier of the Republic of China who was also born as a bandit, defected to Feng Zhang, and Zhang Zuolin was extremely kind to him, and even offered him gambling money. Zhang Zongchang, who was strong and strong, relied on his bravery and good fighting to become a fierce general under the marshal. But Zhang Zongchang was a big grin and had no scruples. He came back from Heilongjiang to see the marshal, and before he reached the marshal's office, he shouted: "Old man, Xiao Kun has returned..." The voice did not fall, only to see Zhang Zuolin shoot the case and scolded: "Get out!" Are you a soldier? Mom pull a, when at home! Re-enter me! Frightened, this Shandong big man broke out in a cold sweat, stunned, immediately stood still, turned backwards, stepped out, and then, at the door, turned around and raised his hand in salute and shouted: "Report! Zhang Zongchang arrived! "After the words are spoken inside, I will enter the house in a formal manner to listen to the training."
Is Zhang Zuolin a traitor? The answer is no. Why do people have such questions? It is because although Zhang Zuolin does not make false remarks about the Japanese, he has not openly opposed Japan, and Zhang Zuolin's attitude toward Japan has always been somewhat ambiguous in the eyes of the public. Because Zhang Zuolin once worked for Russia, and later also worked for the Japanese. Especially at the time of Guo Songling's anti-Feng war, he also cooperated with the Japanese for a time. He also hired Takeo Kikuchi as a consultant in Fuchu.
