He was one of the leaders of the Fengzhi warlords and had long been entrenched in the Shandong region. I have not read a few years in my life, but my poetry can be called "unprecedented". Although he was a warlord, he did not win several battles. What makes him more famous is his private life. The number of his wives and concubines and aunts added up to 23.
Zhang Zongchang is a native of Ye County, Shandong Province. Around twenty-five years after Guangxu, he went to the northeast to earn a living and had some younger brothers. After the "Wuchang Uprising", he led more than a hundred people to defect to Hu Ying, the governor of the Shandong Nationalist Army, and was appointed as the commander of the Independent Cavalry Regiment of the Guangfu Army. He did not expect that just two months later, Hu Ying resigned and was later reappointed as an envoy to Qinghai Tunken in Xinjiang. When the patron arrived, he had to find the next target to cling to.
In July 1913, Zhang Zongchang defected to Feng Guozhang, one of the "Three Masters of Beiyang", and successively served as the supervisor of the Jiangsu Army Officer Education Corps and the deputy chief of the Jiangsu General's Office. Since after Yuan Shikai's death, Li Yuanhong succeeded him as president, Feng Guozhang was elected vice president, and later even served as acting president, so Zhang Zongchang's official position was also promoted again and again.
After the outbreak of the "Protector of the French War" in 1918, Zhang Zongchang led his troops to attack the Protector Army, followed Zhang Huaizhi to Xiang to participate in the battle against the Southern Army, and fled in defeat. In 1921, he fled to Zhang Zuolin and defected to the Feng clan, successively serving as a senior adviser to the Inspectorate and a gendarmerie battalion commander. From April 1925, when he became the military governor of Shandong, he brutally suppressed the strike of workers in the Qingdao Japanese Textile Factory, resulting in the "Qingdao Massacre". In July of the same year, he was also appointed governor of Shandong Province.
At the beginning of 1926, Zhang Zongchang was appointed commander-in-chief of the Zhilu Coalition Army. During this period, he levied tyrannical taxes, collecting more than 50 kinds of taxes in various names, and suppressed the workers' movement in Jinan. In 1928, in the Zhifeng War, the soldiers were defeated and fled to Dalian and Japan. In 1932, he returned to the Tianjin Concession from Japan. On September 3, Zhang Zongchang was shot dead by Shandong Provincial Government Senator Zheng Jicheng at the Jinan station of the Jinpu Railway.
When Zhang Zongchang was born with a wind and flow, when he entered Shanghai, Sun Chuanfang knew that he was a rogue, and immediately sent his henchmen to Shanghai to pack up all the places for him to enjoy every day. Subsequently, Sun Chuanfang rushed to Shanghai, intended to get to know him, and also worshipped him, just to make him give up his plan to attack Zhejiang. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zongchang really hit the plan. Among the women he married, some were beautiful, some were extremely ugly, such as eleven aunts, and some were female artists. Some were even foreigners, and while he was in Japan, he married his twenty-two aunts.
However, the most unexpected thing is that Zhang Zongchang actually married the five sisters of Belarus. At that time, many Chinese were bullied and feared by foreigners, and he also discovered this, in order to make the people in his jurisdiction obey, he deliberately found scattered soldiers who fled from Russia and formed a White Russian army of tens of thousands. The five aunts and wives were discovered by him at that time and brought back to Shandong.
Although Zhang Zongchang did not go to school for several years, as his official position became higher, he was still the parent official of Kong Shengren, and he did not have a little Sven atmosphere and came to Shandong in vain. Therefore, he learned from his teacher, and after some hard training, his learning has grown greatly. Soon after, he published a book of poems that he gave to friends and family. For example, he once wrote a poem "You Taishan": "Look at Taishan from a distance, black and mushy, thin on the top and thick on the bottom." If Tarzan is turned upside down, the lower head is thin and the upper head is thick. "The level of this poem has its own opinion.
In a hundred years of China, there are many poets, but there are only a few poets like Zhang Zongchang who still have poems circulating and are still remembered.
