Why is Zhang called the King of Northeast China?

From the early years of the Republic of China to Chiang Kai-shek's Central Plains War, it can be said that it was another separatist period in China, and warlords were everywhere. Among many warlords, Zhang's Feng warlord, Feng's direct warlord and Duan's Anhui warlord are the most powerful, and they are called the three major warlords in the Republic of China.

Among these three warlords, Zhang is the most powerful!

Zhang (1875 ~ 1928) was born in troubled times. Like many people, his family is poor. When a teenager lost his father, he sold steamed buns at a young age, learned from carpenters and did many things that were not his age.

The so-called troubled times make heroes. If Zhang hadn't been mixed up in troubled times, it is estimated that his life would be flat.

When the Sino-Japanese War 1894 broke out, Zhang joined the army and was promoted to captain because of his outstanding performance.

1902, promoted to Taonan.

After Wuchang Uprising, Zhang was promoted to? Minister of foreign customs training department? , and served as the general manager of the scout camp (this position is in charge of Feng Jun's military power). This also laid the foundation for Zhang's future rule (the three northeastern provinces).

After Yuan Shikai's death, Zhang was appointed as the governor of Fengtian and the governor of three northeastern provinces by the then Beijing government. Later, in collusion with the Japanese, he took control of the three northeastern provinces with the help of the Japanese and became the leader of the Feng warlord.

Zhang's Feng warlord was not the most powerful at first. Because it broke out on 1922? The first direct service? Zhang was defeated, the strength of the army was weakened, and? Tourism ambassadors from three northeastern provinces? The title is gone.

However, after the defeat, Zhang did not recover, but chose to accumulate strength and make a comeback. Two years later, Zhang's troops in the three northeastern provinces were about150,000, with six armies. At this time, there is strength to challenge Zhang's immediate warlord Wu. So what? The second direct service war? Break out.

Because the strength gap between the two sides is not very big, the engagement between the two armies has also fallen into a stalemate. However, this situation did not last long. Because Feng Yuxiang, an ally of the direct warlord Wu, was in Zhang? Persuade? Finally, Wu's direct troops retreated, and more than 30,000 guns were seized by Zhang's troops. After Zhang became famous, he took advantage of the situation to enter Shanghai, and his strength reached a peak stage.
