In 1909, Huo Yuanjia, the leader of the martial arts, was poisoned by the Japanese, and the Jingwu Gate was greatly hit, and even risked closing. At this moment of crisis, Huo Yuanjia's second son Huo Dongge, who was only 15 years old, was born out of nowhere, and under his efforts, Jingwumen created brilliant achievements again, and once developed his power abroad, what kind of efforts did Huo Dongge make?
Li Zhongxuan was a martial arts master of the Republic of China, after the liberation he dictated, and Xu Gaofeng wrote the book "The Lost Wulin", which has a chapter telling the story of Huo Dongge, which is amazing to read, let's listen to how "The Lost Wulin" is told.
Huo Yuanjia had two sons and three daughters in this life, and Huo Dongge was the second son. After decades of development, their lost fist has also achieved great fame in the jianghu. Huo Yuanjia's character and martial arts are excellent, the most powerful thing is that after his own research, he has made the Lost Fist a highly confrontational technique, unique in martial arts.
When Huo Dongge was just born, Huo Yuanjia was just a small helper, and Huo Dongge's brother Huo Dongzhang did not like to dance with guns and sticks, but Huo Dongge was very close to his father's temper, so Huo Yuanjia obviously liked Huo Dongge more, usually taking him with him wherever he went, and once regarded him as his successor, and his requirements for him were extremely strict.
Later, Huo Yuanjia's fame in the martial arts became more and more famous, and many people were full of admiration when they mentioned Huo Yuanjia in front of Huo Dongge, which also made Huo Dongge know that his father was a big hero.
One day, a Russian Hercules ran to Tianjin to find trouble, and advertised in the newspaper that none of the Chinese were his opponents, but only some sick East Asian men who could only smoke opium. Such rampant words infuriated many patriots, many of whom went up to fight him in the ring, but were eventually defeated by him.
This made all the martial artists extremely resentful of this Russian Hercules, who openly ridiculed Chinese's incompetence and announced that he would continue to the south to see what level Chinese was. After this sentence reached Huo Yuanjia's ears, he came to the ring of the Russian Hercules and asked to compete with the Hercules.
However, Hercules had already heard of Huo Yuanjia's name, and he did not dare to fight with Huo Yuanjia at all, so he called him behind the scenes, hoping that Huo Yuanjia could cancel the competition. But Huo Yuanjia said: If you want to cancel the competition, you must apologize to all the Chinese, and you can no longer say that you are the most powerful Hercules in the world. If you don't meet my requirements, then we'll see the real chapter on stage. Hercules did not dare to be strong, actually apologized in the newspaper, and then left China in a gray and slippery manner.
There are too many legends about Huo Yuanjia. He was not only very patriotic, but also often acted heroically. Empress Dowager Cixi wanted to show the five owls of the Great Sword King to the public, but it was Huo Yuanjia who snatched back his head, which caused Wang Wu to fall into a complete corpse. Because of his chivalrous reputation, Huo Yuanjia had a very high prestige in the martial arts circles around Beijing and Tianjin.
Since he was a child, Huo Dongge has regarded Huo Yuanjia as his idol and is inspired to become exactly the same character as his father. He himself was talented and intelligent, coupled with diligent study and hard work, and by the time Huo Yuanjia founded the Jingwu Association in Shanghai, Huo Dongge's level of martial arts had surpassed most people.
It was only Huo Dongge who found that his father slowly focused on others. According to the "Lost Martial Arts", at that time, Huo Yuanjia founded the Jingwu Sports Association in order to eliminate the title of East Asian sick man imposed on China by western countries, and he hoped to cultivate a large number of physically strong martial arts talents in the way of masters and apprentices. Because of his great fame in martial arts, he attracted many people to study art, and his time was squeezed out.
In addition, because there were many Japanese ronin in Shanghai, these people did not obey Huo Yuanjia at all, and often ran to the Jingwu Gate to find Huo Yuanjia for "martial arts exchanges". As a result, after several battles, these people found that they were indeed not Huo Yuanjia's opponents, so they thought of a crooked idea, under the pretext of entertaining Huo Yuanjia, but secretly poisoned, causing Huo Yuanjia to be poisoned and die.
After Huo Yuanjia's death, his apprentices took out the medicine that Huo Yuanjia had taken out for testing, and found a large number of toxins, which made them know the true cause of death of the master. Two months after Huo Yuanjia's death, Jingwumen suffered a major blow, and seeing that it was about to close its doors, 15-year-old Huo Dongge stood up and inherited his father's mantle, which revitalized Jingwumen.
The existence of Huo Dongge became a reassuring pill for Jingwumen, coupled with his extremely high martial arts and great righteousness and pride, under his efforts, Jingwumen quickly survived the most tragic days of Huo Yuanjia's death and regained his former glory.
At this time, the Qing Dynasty had long since perished, the Republic of China had been established, and the Jingwu Gate had also been established for the tenth anniversary. Huo Dongge trained a large number of outstanding talents for the Martial Arts of the Republic of China, and in addition to his continuous teaching, his own martial arts did not fall behind, and he had a very high martial arts foundation.
In 1920, Huo Dongge arrived in Guangdong at the invitation of Wen Shude, the commander-in-chief of the navy at the time, to serve as the chief instructor of martial arts in the navy. But unfortunately, Wen Shude defected to Yuan Shikai when choosing sides, which made Huo Dongge extremely angry and resigned and returned home.
In order to develop the spirit of Jingwumen to all parts of the world, Huo Dongge came to Guawa Surabaya, which is now Surabaya. There, he tried his best to visit some Chinese celebrities, hoping to use their influence to open martial arts halls in the local area.
But no one would believe him, huo Dongge's fame had not yet reached there, but he was never discouraged. One day, Surabaya Middle School held a fundraising activity, in order to attract more people, Huo Dongge performed a set of lost fists on stage, and the wonderful performance was quickly welcomed by many people. Everyone asked him to continue to perform a set of drunken eight immortals, which was also praised by many people.
Since then, Huo Dongge has established a reputation there, and many schools have invited him to be a coach. Huo Dongge is also a very conscientious person. Under his leadership, the physical fitness of local students has made great progress. In order to further promote his martial arts ideas, Huo Dongge would bring students to perform martial arts performances together every holiday.
Huo Dongge has always taught his students that as a martial artist, you must love the country and your family, and you must know that only a strong physique can save China. Many people were inspired by him to help him create the first overseas branch of Jingwumen, and a large number of young people joined xiwu. Huo Dongge also asked his nephew Huo Shouchong, who was teaching in the Guangdong branch, to work for him in Surabaya, while he himself promoted martial arts everywhere, and even made the achievements of Jingwumen into movies for publicity.
Huo Dongge's efforts caused a sensation in the entire Indonesian community, and even changed the atmosphere of Indonesian martial arts for a while. In "The Lost Wulin", it is said that Indonesia originally did not have the so-called Wulin at all, and later after Huo Dongge went, the word Wulin actually became the most common word in the Indonesian population, which shows the great influence of Huo Dongge.
Huo Dongge not only fully carried forward the spirit of martial arts, but also a patriotic martial artist. After the Japanese invaded China in an all-round way, Huo Dongge led his disciples around to publicize and demonstrate, and constantly donated money and materials to the front line. His enthusiasm triggered a wave of Chinese fundraising, and many people had money to contribute money and made great contributions to the war.
After the Japanese occupied Guawa, Huo Dongge still did not give up anti-Japanese propaganda, and as a result, he was arrested by the Japanese police in a speech, and he did not return to freedom until the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan.
Huo Dongge has been living in Indonesia ever since, and in addition to teaching martial arts, he has also improved his family's secret recipe for treating trauma, while actively studying traditional Chinese medicine. Especially in the local area, he knew the problem of the lack of medical treatment and medicine for the local people, and he also began to treat diseases and save people when teaching, which was respected by the locals. Because of his superb medical skills, he is respected by many people as a divine doctor.
Huo Dongge, who has long lived in Indonesia and missed his hometown very much, returned to China twice in 1926 and 1935, and the last time he wanted to leave with his young son Huo Wenting, but his wife did not want to separate mother and son, so he had to give up.
In 1956, Huo Dongge died of illness in Guawa. Although he has left us, this wonderful patriotic martial artist will always live in our hearts. Until now, the overseas Jingwu Branch has still developed very rapidly, and its members are all over the world.
In the era of Huo Dongge's birth, it was the darkest period in China. In order to alleviate the national crisis, a large number of martial artists represented by Huo Dongge, Li Zhongxuan and others have brought about a peak in Chinese martial arts in order to promote the style of shangwu, and these people live in the most glorious moments of China's martial arts.
