Zhang Xueliang dictated his history in his later years, and said proudly to the visitors: "When I was a child, I wore the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty and wore a red top, and I was a five-grade official at the age of eight.
When the visitor heard that Zhang Xueliang had been a five-grade official of the Qing Dynasty at the age of eight, his face was incredulous, so why did the eight-year-old Zhang Xueliang have an official position in the Qing Dynasty? What is the reason for this?
In the 33rd year of Guangxu, this place in western Liaoning is not very peaceful, there is a rampant bandit, the leader of this bandit is named Du Lisan, this person is insidious and cunning, killing people like hemp, the local government has sent troops to suppress it many times, but they are all in vain.
After Xu Shichang, the new governor of the three eastern provinces at that time, learned about this situation, in order to be able to exterminate Du Lisan's gang of bandits, he let Zhang Xueliang's father Zhang Zuolin serve as the commander of the five battalions. Let him find a way to get rid of Du Lisan.
This Zhang Zuolin was originally born as a bandit, but was later appeased and became a pipe band of the Qing army, and in order to be able to go further in his career, he accepted the order given to him by Xu Shichang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, to get rid of Du Lisan, a giant bandit in western Liaoning.
Zhang Zuolin knew that Du Lisan was an old fox and would not easily go down the mountain to show up, in order to be able to lure him out and appear, Zhang Zuolin asked Du Lisan's uncle to write a letter of recommendation, and then sent someone to take this letter of recommendation to invite Du Lisan down the mountain for an interview.
After Du Lisan received the letter, he saw that it was his uncle's handwriting, so he was relieved to go down the mountain to meet Zhang Zuolin.
At that time, Zhang Zuolin set up a banquet for reception at the meeting place, and Du Lisan saw that Zhang Zuolin was sincere, so he relaxed his vigilance, and he was so happy with the wine.
After the banquet, Du Lisan, who was slightly drunk, got up and returned happy, when he staggered to the door, suddenly from the door appeared several strong men to block his way, Du Lisan saw this situation, he wanted to scold, but was thrown to the ground by these big men.
And Du Lisan didn't realize that he had fallen for Zhang Zuolin until this time, so he tried his best to break free from the shackles of these big men, but these big men didn't give him a chance to break free and escape, and one of the strong big men pulled out a big knife from behind, raised the knife and fell, killing Du Lisan with a knife.
After Zhang Zuolin solved Du Lisan, the bandit leader, he led his soldiers to take Du Lisan's bandit nest directly, and because Du Lisan was dead, the bandits had no leader, and Zhang Zuolin led the troops to easily wipe them out.
After Zhang Zuolin planned to get rid of the giant bandit Du Lisan in western Liaoning, Xu Shichang, the new governor of the three eastern provinces, was so far that he had one less confidant, and he was very happy about this, so he promoted Zhang Zuolin to the post and ordered him to lead the army to Zhengjiatun and Taonan to exterminate the local bandit forces that were on the side of the disaster.
At that time, there were three Mongolian bandit forces in Zhengjiatun and Taonan, namely Baiyin Dajiao, Sixty-three Yaqian, and Taoke Taohu, among which these three Mongolian bandit forces, especially Taoke Taohu, were the strongest.
In the following days, Zhang Zuolin overcame all the difficulties and pressure, led his troops to kill Baiyin Da Lai, and captured sixty-three Ya Qian, after solving these two Mongolian bandit forces, Zhang Zuolin challenged the most powerful Tao Ke Taohu, Tao Ke Taohu, the leader of the Mongolian bandits, compared with Bai Yin Da Cheng and sixty-three Ya Qian, he can be described as more cunning and cold-blooded.
Zhang Zuolin in the initial battle with Tao Ke Tao Hu, has been in a passive situation, casualties are very large, morale is very low, Zhang Zuolin saw that this development is not a thing, so he stood up to encourage morale and military morale, and then, under the personal command of Zhang Zuolin, they finally turned defeat into victory, defeated Tao Ke Tao Hu, and expelled him from the border.
Xu Shichang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, was very happy when he learned of this exciting news, and even went to the Qing court to ask for credit for Zhang Zuolin, who had exterminated the Mongolian bandits.
Xu Shichang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, praised Zhang Zuolin for his meritorious work in suppressing bandits, and he wrote in the recital:
The commander Zhang Zuolin and others drove through the desert and prepared for hardship. In the rest of the year, the huge troubles that have accumulated for many years will be wiped out, which is really not comparable to the extraordinary efforts to suppress bandits. ”
After the Guangxu Emperor saw this meritorious performance by Xu Shichang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, Longyan Dayue immediately issued a holy decree to commend Zhang Zuolin for his meritorious work in suppressing bandits, and named him a guerrilla deputy general.
At the same time, the Qing court also wanted to reward Zhang Zuolin with fame, but Zhang Zuolin himself was not interested in fame, but transferred the Qing court's grace to his mother Wang and his eldest son Zhang Xueliang, so Zhang Zuolin's mother Wang was posthumously named Mrs. Decree by the Qing court, and his eldest son Zhang Xueliang was named the five-grade Hubu Langzhong.
At that time, Zhang Zuolin's eldest son Zhang Xueliang was only 8 years old, at that time he was just a playful child, red-topped, Tobe Langzhong, he didn't understand what it meant at all, he only knew that the elders in the family often joked about finding something in front of him.
In his later years, Zhang Xueliang recalled this experience, and said to the visitor with a proud face: I didn't know what Hubu Langzhong was at that time, but now I know, that is, a clerk of the Ministry of Finance, I was wearing the five-grade official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, wearing a red top, but it was majestic, if it wasn't for the death of the former Qing Dynasty, I would be arrogant!"
From Zhang Xueliang's memories in his later years, we know that the reason why Zhang Xueliang had the five-grade official position of the Qing Dynasty when he was 8 years old was because his old father Zhang Zuolin exterminated the Mongolian bandits and risked his life in exchange.
However, Zhang Xueliang, who was only 8 years old at the time, did not go to the post, which made few people in the world know that Zhang Xueliang had an official position in the Qing court, and it was not until Zhang Xueliang's later years that Zhang Xueliang was interviewed by the visitor, Zhang Xueliang told his unknown past experience, which surprised the visitor.
Zhang Xueliang's life is full of legends, and there are many well-known stories in his life past and experience, which have been passed down to this day.
