In China's modern history, the northeast was under the rule of Zhang Zuolin for a period of time, and after the "Huanggutun" incident, the military and political power in the northeast fell into the hands of Zhang Zuolin's son Zhang Xueliang.
Because Zhang Xueliang was in danger and relatively young, this caused dissatisfaction among some elders among the warlords of the Feng clan at that time, but fortunately, he had his own uncle Zhang Zuoxiang to help preside.
However, among these elders, a man named Yang Yuting contradicted Zhang Xueliang everywhere, and under Zhang Xueliang's arrangement, his subordinates shot Yang Yuting under the pretext of talking about official affairs.
"Ambitionist" Yang Yuting
In fact, Yang Yuting's ambition was demonstrated as early as the Zhang Zuolin period, he was a very talented person, often arrogant, among the Warlords of the Feng clan at that time, each general would manage a unit.
And this Yang Yuting was deeply expected by Zhang Zuolin, but he was not satisfied, and in order to expand the strength of his troops, he secretly embezzled more than 3 million yuan of military expenses, which was a huge amount at that time.
Such a large amount of deposits disappeared, which attracted zhang Zuolin's attention. Finally, after investigation, Yang Yuting's head was found, and after the matter was revealed, Zhang Zuolin was very angry and called him over, and stripped him of all his military power in public.
However, within a few months, Zhang Zuolin found that he could not do without Yang Yuting in many places, and out of helplessness, he had to invite Yang Yuting back again.
After feeling that Zhang Zuolin could not do without himself, Yang Yuting became more arrogant, and he also knew that the reason for today's achievements was also brought to him by Zhang Zuolin.
Therefore, during Zhang Zuolin's tenure as the "King of the Northeast", Yang Yuting did his best to help him deal with the contradictions within the Fengjun army, and helped Zhang Zuolin eliminate many people with ghost fetuses, so Yang Yuting was highly respected and full of merits, whether in the army or in the political arena.
After Zhang Zuolin's death, Zhang Xueliang ascended to the throne of the "King of northeast China", but the young Zhang Xueliang was still very deficient in handling government affairs and military affairs, and needed his uncle Zhang Zuoxiang to help support him.
At this time, Yang Yuting's power among the warlords of the Feng clan can be described as the sun in the sky, impenetrable.
Yang Yuting often did not take Zhang Xueliang in his eyes, he thought that Zhang Xueliang was a newcomer who did not understand anything. What made Zhang Xueliang feel even more angry was that Yang Yuting actually killed his friend Guo Songling, who was also a teacher and friend, and it was precisely because of this incident that Zhang Xueliang was moved to kill.
Shoot Yang Yuting
Although Zhang Xueliang had already moved his killing heart, it was not so easy to kill such a senior-level figure, in addition to considering his influence among the warlords of the Feng clan, but also considering the problems of public opinion and people's hearts, if killing him would lead to internal chaos, it would be too unworthy.
Zhang Xueliang, who was wandering left and right, chose to throw coins and choose not to kill him, if it was face-up, he would kill him, and if it was the back, he would let him go.
In fact, Zhang Xueliang already had a decision in his conscience, that is, not to kill him, but he had no choice but to throw a coin once to be positive, and Zhang Xueliang, who did not believe in evil, twice was positive, and since Providence was so, Zhang Xueliang had to order him to be shot.
At that time, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Yuting just had a conflict on the issue of "Sino-Soviet joint railway on the Middle East Road", and the two of them had different ideas about the person in charge of this project, because to approve this provision, Yang Yuting must be signed by Zhang Xueliang.
Therefore, he went to Zhang Xueliang one after another to force him to sign, but he was always politely rejected by Zhang Xueliang, who thought that he should collectively discuss the long-term plan, but Yang Yuting did not give Zhang Xueliang face, and his attitude was extremely tough.
In the end, Zhang Xueliang, who could not bear it, called his police commissioner to the living room and asked him to find a way to deal with Yang Yuting. The Commissioner of Police was also shocked after receiving this order, and finally after consultation between the two, the location of the shooting was set as Tiger Hall.
In the afternoon, Zhang Xueliang sent someone to deceive Yang Yuting under the pretext of signing an official document, so Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai came to the Tiger Hall with a big wave, but at this moment, the soldiers outside the door suddenly rushed in and shot them to death.
Guilty Zhang Xueliang
After Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai died, Zhang Xueliang felt that he did not have this evil breath in his heart, nor did he feel relaxed, but he was extremely nervous.
He didn't know if what he was doing was right, after all, Yang Yuting was the founder of the world who fought with his father, and he was now shooting him to death, would such a practice make the elders of the Feng clan feel cold?
After he shot Yang Yuting, in order to make up for his deep guilt, Zhang Xueliang often compensated his family and sought some spiritual comfort.
After this incident, the things that worried Zhang Xueliang also came, and many of Zhang Zuolin's old subordinates were very dissatisfied with Zhang Xueliang's behavior, although Yang Yuting was usually arrogant, but he did not die.
In his later years, Zhang Xueliang recalled the incident, and he said that he regretted it very much, and it was precisely because of the "superstition" that the coins killed him.
Zhang Xueliang believed that this was the will of Heaven, so he "had to believe", although he had some regrets, but Zhang Xueliang found that after killing him, it was much more convenient to do anything, perhaps this was really "Providence".
brief summary:
There is an idiom called Gong Gao Zhen Lord, all rulers are very jealous of their own subordinates everywhere to contain themselves, forced to helplessly Zhang Xueliang chose to shoot Yang Yuting, and finally blood splashed the Tiger Hall.
