Speaking of Zhang Zuolin, many people still admired him, in that era many warlords did not hesitate to cooperate with the Japanese for their own territory and interests, and Zhang Zuolin, as the king of the Northeast, did not have very bright means in the struggle between the warlords, but in personal principles, he resolutely did not cooperate with the Japanese.
Because of this, the Japanese regarded him as a thorn in the flesh of the eye, and they had to get rid of him quickly, and finally planted a bomb in Huanggutun and killed Zhang Zuolin. Zhang Zuolin's life can be said to be a legend, and he can achieve the position of the head of the Feng clan not only by his own ability, but also with the help of several brothers.
The so-called three gangs of a good man, Zhang Zuolin, no matter how strong, could not support the entire northeast alone, so this was inseparable from his seven brothers. Zhang Zuolin's seven brothers are: Ma Longtan, Wu Junsheng, Sun Liechen, Zhang Jinghui, Feng Delin, Tang Yulin, and Zhang Zuoxiang.
Zhang Zuolin's brothers each held a high position, and were told by people in the folk that they shared the glory and wealth before they died, what was the fate of these seven brothers after Zhang Zuolin's death?
Old Malone Pond
Born into a military family, he not only likes to read and especially likes firearms, but can be called a Confucian general who is both literate and martial. But because of Ma Longtan's strong ability, Zhang Zuolin is actually very afraid of him in his heart, although the two are brothers, but this is more of a cooperation in interests.
In order to prevent Ma Longtan from posing a threat to Zhang Zuolin, he found a reason to take back Ma Longtan's military power and let him be his own staff. The respect of Ma Longtan mainly comes from his patriotic feelings, whether it is a war with Russia or a civil war, his starting point comes from national interests.
After the "9/18" incident, the Japanese tried to bribe him, but he angrily refused. In 1940, Ma Longtan died in siping apartment at the age of 84, this patriotic old man completed his life, and many celebrities and merchants from all over the northeast came to send him.
The second eldest, Wu Junsheng
This person can be said to be the most loyal to Zhang Zuolin, and he also remembers the oath he took at the time of worship, so he has won Zhang Zuolin's trust. Wu Junsheng was loyal to Zhang Zuolin, but was very cruel to the people, not only using power for personal gain, but also exploiting the people at all times and using cruel means.
Because he was a bit stuttering, he was ridiculed by the people as "Wu Big Tongue", because Zhang Zuolin trusted him, so he gave him a high-ranking official Houlu, and basically took Wu Junsheng with him everywhere he went. Therefore, when Huanggutun exploded, he was also with Zhang Zuolin, so Wu Junsheng was killed on the spot.
Old Three Feng Delin
Feng Delin died of a sudden heart attack at the age of 59. As a senior who is 9 years older than Zhang Zuolin, although he and Zhang Zuolin are brothers, they are more often regarded as predecessors, and Zhang Zuolin, who is proud and arrogant, is also more disgusted with him.
Among the warlords of the Feng clan, Feng Delin's power and status Zhang Zuolin were on a par, so both of them were secretly competing with each other, and later Feng Delin participated in Zhang Xun's restoration, failed and was imprisoned, Zhang Zuolin used all means to release him from prison, and after that, Feng Delin had nothing but to participate in some industry, and zhang Zuolin had almost no meeting.
Old Fourth Tang Yulin
Nicknamed "Erhu", he was also a good man in the green forest before, and the two became brothers because they saved Zhang Zuolin's life. After Zhang Zuolin made his mark in the northeast, Tang Yulin became very rampant, Zhang Zuolin saw this and repeatedly suppressed him, and Tang Yulin felt that Zhang Zuolin crossed the river and demolished the bridge, so the two became estranged.
Later, Zhang Zuolin saw that Tang Yulin had no intention of repenting, so he found a reason to dismiss Tang Yulin, and Tang Yulin was angry and participated in Zhang Xun's restoration with Feng Delin, and after the failure, Feng Delin was imprisoned, and he ran to Mongolia for refuge. It was not until Zhang Jinghui matched that Zhang Zuolin and Tang Yulin reconciled.
Although Zhang Tang and Tang are estranged, they are brothers in life and death after all, and when Zhang Zuolin was killed, Tang Yulin vowed to fight with the Japanese and swore in public not to be traitors. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, he repeatedly refused japanese cooperation and actively participated in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression until his death in Tianjin in February 1949 at the age of 78.
Old five Zhang Jinghui
This person is also only loyal to Zhang Zuolin, but he is loyal to Zhang Zuolin, but his integrity is extremely poor. At that time, Shenyang fell, and he openly defected to the enemy in order to survive, and at the highest time he became the prime minister of Manchukuo. After the victory of the War of Resistance, he was captured by the Soviet army and finally died in a war criminal.
Zhang Jinghui was also the only one among the eight brothers to become a traitor, but even so, his feelings for Zhang Zuolin were the most real. At that time, after Zhang Zuolin was killed by the explosion, the body was not buried, and it was always placed in the courtyard of the Shuai Mansion, and the Zhang family could not carry the body after leaving, and the Japanese did not care at all, and the body was released for six years.
When Zhang Jinghui was the prime minister of puppet Manchukuo, he heard that his brother was so miserable, and personally buried Zhang Zuolin properly, after all, he was buried in peace.
The sixth grandson of the old sun
First as the commander of the 24th Division, and then as the deputy commander of the Northeast Army, he was not only Zhang Zuolin's trusted brother, but also Zhang Zuolin's confidant. Sun Liechen's ability is outstanding, and Zhang Zuolin greatly appreciates it, but it is precisely because of this that he holds several positions, resulting in overwork and serious illness.
In 1924, Sun Liechen died at the age of 52 and stayed in Fengtian Provincial City for a long time, causing him to suffer from depression and never marry. After hearing the news of Sun Liechen's death, Zhang Zuolin rushed forward to mourn and held Sun Liechen's body for half an hour crying bitterly, which showed Zhang Zuolin's feelings for Sun Liechen.

The seventh is Zhang Zuolin, and because the names of the two are only one word apart, many people mistakenly think that they are brothers. In fact, Zhang Zuoxiang is from Yixian County, Jinzhou, while Zhang Zuolin is from Haicheng County, Fengtian.
Zhang Zuoxiang was different from several other brothers, he was indifferent to fame and fortune all his life, after Zhang Zuolin's death, Zhang Zuoxiang assisted Zhang Xueliang, and later the Northeast Army failed to resist Japan, Zhang Xueliang went to the wilderness, and Zhang Zuoxiang also left his post in anger.
After this, the Japanese wanted to bribe Zhang Zuoxiang with a lot of money, but they were all refused. After liberation, he was captured by the People's Liberation Army, but because Zhang Zuoxiang did not have any negative style in his life, he was treated with state courtesy. In 1949, Zhang Zuoxiang died of illness in Tianjin.
Zhang Zuolin's life can have such achievements, it cannot but be said that the help given by his brothers is still quite large, except for one brother who did a traitor, the personal plot of the other brothers is still admirable, even after Zhang Zuolin's death, they are determined not to be traitors. It is precisely because of the support of these brothers that Zhang Zuolin can become a famous "King of northeast China" in history.
