Fan Zhongxiu, a native of Henan, has been a monk in the Shaolin Temple in Henan since he was a child, so although he has a skill in martial arts, he can only protect himself in a chaotic world. One day he returned to his hometown and saw that the villagers were bullied by bandits, so he took a few young and strong boys in the village, directly took off the bandit's nest, and beat the bandit leader to death, which was also considered to be a harm to one side, so Fan Zhongxiu's reputation also spread slowly in the local area, and some young people in the next village came to him, and after a long time, Fan Zhongxiu also had his own team, a team formed by poor people, specializing in cracking down on local tycoons and gentry, landlord bullies, and bandits around him.
In order to be able to better restrain his subordinates, Fan Zhongxiu proposed three prohibitions: (1) not to rape civil women, (2) not to rob people's property, (3) to confiscate all captured things, and then distributed according to merit, and not to take it for themselves. It was also these prohibitions that made Fan Zhongxiu's troops continue to grow.
In 1914, Fan Zhongxiu's reputation in the local area grew, as the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. It is a good thing that the fame is too big, and Fan Zhongxiu is because of his great fame, and he was finally surrounded and suppressed by the government. As Fan Bu, who had not received formal training, was certainly not an opponent of the officers and troops, so he chose to go south to surrender to Mr. Zhongshan, which may be the most correct path that Fan Zhongxiu chose, and at that time, Mr. Zhongshan also belonged, and he was very happy to see Fan Zhongxiu with a team to defect to him, and he also personally received Fan Zhongxiu, and his troops were also reorganized into the Jingguo Army, and Fan Zhongxiu served as the commander of the Second Route Army, and from then on the reckless hero embarked on the revolutionary road.
Moreover, Fan Zhongxiu was also very loyal to Mr. Zhongshan, such as in 1923, when Chen Jiongming launched a rebellion and invaded Guangzhou, the Gui army of the Dian Army in Guangzhou at that time was defeated by Chen Jiongming, and the situation was very critical, so Mr. Zhongshan had to leave the Grand Marshal's Palace. In order to avoid the pursuit of the rebels, some people asked to leave Guangzhou and take refuge in Hong Kong, but they were opposed by Mr. Nakayama.
Fan Zhongxiu
So he hurriedly dispatched Fan Zhongxiu to come to the rescue, fan Zhongxiu, who received the order, immediately led his subordinates to dare to come to the rescue, Fan Zhongxiu and said to the troops, Mr. Zhongshan is behind us, the second battle can not be defeated, you all have to fight me desperately, in order to boost morale, Fan Zhongxiu carried a large knife, bare chest rushed to the front, and fought with the rebel Chen Jiongming's troops, after a fight, finally defeated Chen Jiongming's troops, this rescue, Fan Zhongxiu's contribution is indispensable, after the battle, he was also praised by Mr. Zhongshan, saying that he was a good comrade of the revolution.
From this, it can be seen that Fan Zhongxiu was very loyal to Mr. Zhongshan, which is why after mr. Zhongshan's death in 1925, Fan Zhongxiu, who was then the commander-in-chief of the Yu Army, was very sad after hearing this news, and sent a plain flower banner with words such as "Heavy Remembrance of Mr. Zhongshan, the Father of the Nation", and from then on, the title of Father of the Nation was fully opened, so Fan Zhongxiu was the first person to call Mr. Zhongshan the Father of the Nation. And in 1930, Chiang Kai-shek issued a circular to the whole country honoring Mr. Zhongshan as the founding father of the Republic of China.
Mr. Nakayama
In the following battles, he participated in the Northern Expedition, and led his troops to defeat Wu Peifu, making a heroic contribution to the victory of the Northern Expedition, so after the end of the Northern Expedition, he served as the commander of the 45th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, but later because of his dissatisfaction with Chiang Kai-shek. Standing on Yan Xishan during the Central Plains War, Feng Yuxiang opposed Jiang together.
Moreover, he was still a hard element of Chiang Kai-shek, and at that time, Chiang Kai-shek bribed him with heavy money, but he refused and insisted on opposing Chiang Kai-shek. Old Jiang could only fight when he saw that the bribe could not be bought, and finally sent planes to bomb, unfortunately Fan Zhongxiu, who was inspecting the positions on the front line, was killed by the plane at the age of 42.
