Target Set ~ Join the Army
Ao Yi knew a lot about the Qing Gang in this era of Huaxia. For a long time, when it came to the Qing Gang members in Shanghai, Boss Du was the first to be mentioned. Boss Du's reputation was indeed very big. The emperor of Shanghai, the godfather of Shanghai, and other titles fell on Boss Du. However, in fact, there was a real Qing Gang leader in Shanghai during the same era. Compared to Boss Du, the gap was still quite big.
Then who was the Qing Gang member who was more powerful than Boss Du in Shanghai? He was the leader of the Qing Gang, Zhang Fakui.
Born in poverty, determined to make a name for himself
Zhang Fakui was from Teng County, Shandong Province. He was born in 1865. When he was young, his family was poor. When he grew up, he became a long-term worker in a nearby landlord's house. Zhang Fakui was an ambitious person who didn't want to be a long-term worker. When he was 27 years old, Zhang Fakui only carried a sickle with him. Without any travel expenses, he quietly ran out of the landlord's house.
Zhang Fakui had no money on him, so he had no choice but to work as a laborer on a cargo ship and finally arrived in Yangzhou. Zhang Fakui's fate changed completely when he arrived in Yangzhou.
Joining the Qing Gang, life changed
After Zhang Fakui arrived in Yangzhou, he joined the Qing Gang and started to smuggle salt under Xu Baoshan, the boss of the Qing Gang in Yangzhou. Xu Baoshan was the leader of the Hong Sect, the Qing Gang, and the Qinghong Gang. He was a legendary figure in the history of the Chinese gangs. He was the boss of the Qing Gang, Hong Sect, and the Qinghong Gang. He was the most powerful boss in the gang.
Xu Baoshan, Big Brother of Yangzhou Green Gang
Zhang Fakui was brave and resourceful, and he quickly gained Xu Baoshan's recognition. His status in the Qing Gang rose quickly. After the Revolution of 1911, Xu Baoshan led the Green Gang brothers to support the revolution and became the commander of Yangzhou. Zhang Fakui was appointed as the brigade commander.
After the victory of the Revolution of 1911, the conflict between Yuan Datou and Sun Dapao gradually became public and eventually led to a war, known as the " Second Revolution."
General of the army, holding a large number of troops, overseeing a region
Xu Baoshan believed that Yuan Datou was the president, so he firmly supported Yuan Datou. Therefore, the National Party under Sun Dapao's leadership decided to get rid of Xu Baoshan. The National Party sent someone to put the bomb into an iron box and pass it off as a vase of the Yuan Dynasty to Xu Baoshan. Xu Baoshan opened the box and the bomb killed him on the spot. The legendary big brother in Jianghu died just like that.
After Xu Baoshan's death, his army was taken over by Zhang Fakui. The Beiyang government under Yuan Datou's leadership awarded Zhang Fakui the rank of general of the army and appointed him as the garrison of Tonghai, stationed in Jiangsu, and the garrison of the Beiyang government was roughly similar to the commander of the military division today.
Zhang Fakui invited Zhang Jian, the top scholar of the Qing Dynasty and a famous entrepreneur of the Republic of China, as a teacher to study history, literature and other knowledge. He also opened a incense hall in Nanchong and recruited disciples. In 1923, Zhang Fakui was awarded the title of "General Jiewei" by the Beiyang government.
Retreat from the military and become the most powerful boss of the Qing Gang in Shanghai.
In May 1927, the Northern Expedition Army under the command of the chairman arrived in Nanchong. Zhang Fakui supported the Northern Expedition and announced that his troops would join the Northern Expedition Army.
However, the National Party had always been wary of Zhang Fakui. Firstly, Zhang Fakui's old superior, Xu Baoshan, had supported Yuan Datou and opposed Sun Dapao. Secondly, Xu Baoshan was assassinated by the National Party, so the National Party was afraid that Zhang Fakui did not really want to join the National Party. At this time, Zhang Fakui's nephew was incited by others and gathered a group of people to launch a mutiny, trying to stop Zhang Fakui from joining the Northern Expedition Army.
Zhang Fakui's glory in the military is boundless
In order to show his support for the Northern Expedition, Zhang Fakui killed his nephew who participated in the mutiny, but the National Party still did not believe him. Zhang Fakui didn't expect that his sincerity would be met with suspicion and ostracization from the National Party. In a fit of anger, he took off his military uniform, resigned from his official position, and left the army. From then on, Zhang Fakui ended his military career and began the most glorious, carefree, and carefree days of his life as the leader of the Qing Gang.
What was the difference between Boss Huang, Boss Du and Zhang Fakui?
Zhang Fakui was a senior of the Qing Gang. He had led the army for decades. He was the Guardian and the General of the Army. No one could surpass him in the gangs of the same era. Therefore, Zhang Fakui was a well-known figure in both the white and the underworld. This was far beyond the likes of Boss Huang and Boss Du in Shanghai.
The rise of Boss Huang's status in Shanghai Bund was largely due to Zhang Fakui's help. In 1923, a Shandong bandit named Sun Meiyao held a train hostage in Lincheng (now Zaozhuang, Shandong Province). In addition to the Chinese passengers, there were dozens of foreigners on the train, including a French bishop.
At that time, Boss Huang was working in the police station of the French concession in Shanghai. The French ordered Boss Huang to find a way to rescue the French hostages. Boss Huang was introduced to Zhang Fakui, who was the Guardian at that time. Zhang Fakui gave Boss Huang a special pass and sent his subordinate Wu Kunshan to accompany Boss Huang to Lin City to save people.
With the help of Zhang Fakui, the French bishop was finally rescued safely. Boss Huang made a great contribution because of this matter and was promoted to the chief inspector of the French concession police station a year later. Without Zhang Fakui's help, Boss Huang's rescue mission wouldn't have gone so smoothly.
Boss Huang is Zhang Fakui's disciple
Boss Huang had always regarded himself as the big brother of the Qing Gang and opened the Fragrance Hall to take in disciples. However, in fact, Boss Huang had never taken that Qing Gang member as his master. Therefore, the real members of the Qing Gang in Shanghai had never recognized Boss Huang as a disciple of the Qing Gang.
Zhang Fakui is a senior in the Qing Gang.
Later, under the guidance of Boss Du, Boss Huang found someone to plead with Zhang Fakui and prepared a generous gift to insist on taking Zhang Fakui as his teacher. Because Zhang Fakui had helped Boss Huang in the Lin City car-hijacking case, he couldn't refuse this time. He had to accept the disciple invitation from Boss Huang. Just like that, Boss Huang became a true "Tong" generation member of the Qing Gang.
At that time, the highest generation in the Shanghai Bund Green Gang was the " Da " generation. Zhang Fakui was the strongest and most prestigious among the " Da " generation. No wonder Boss Huang wanted to find a way to become his disciple.
All the celebrities in Shanghai want to be Zhang Fakui's disciple
As for Boss Du, his seniority was even lower. Boss Du's master, Chen Shichang, was Zhang Fakui's disciple, so Boss Du was Zhang Fakui's grand-disciple. In fact, when Boss Du saw Zhang Fakui, he was indeed respectful.
The troubles of the big brothers in Jianghu, celebrities from all walks of life in Shanghai compete to worship Zhang Fakui as their teacher
After Zhang Fakui arrived in Shanghai, many famous people from all walks of life in Shanghai came to ask for a master. Some of them were big shots that we are very familiar with. Because Shanghai Bund was very chaotic at that time, the rich were afraid of being kidnapped, and the officials were afraid of being assassinated. Therefore, they all hoped to find a powerful gang leader as a backer to protect their safety.
At that time, Zhang Fakui was undoubtedly the most powerful among the gang leaders in Shanghai. There were too many people who came to learn from him, and many of them were high officials in the political world.
Thinking of this, Ao Yi wondered if he should join the Qing Gang and take a look. However, it was just a thought. He already had a plan in his heart. He would start from commanding the army. He would establish a force, and he would be the warlord. If the rise of China only relied on the guardian dragon of China to bear the responsibility, then China would never be able to stand up.
The future of China was decided by the Chinese themselves. He could be a guide. Ao Yi knew that the Chinese people had yet to awaken. China needed an unprecedented victory to stimulate the Chinese people's full awakening.
This could not be done with just a few words. Someone needed to take action, someone needed to bleed, someone needed to pay the price with their life. Moreover, in this war that concerned the fate of the nation, the number of people who might die would be unimaginable!
Ao Yi felt that he could destroy the Wei Nation with a few tsunamis, but how could China awaken like this?
The war against the Japanese was the first time in the past hundred years that the Chinese people had won a complete victory. It was the greatest and most sacred national liberation war in the history of the Chinese people. It was an important part of the world's anti-fascist war. It was the first great national liberation war in which the Chinese people had won a complete victory against foreign invasion in modern times. In the War of Resistance against Japan, the Chinese people fought against the invaders unyieldingly, further consolidating the national strength of the Chinese nation and strengthening the national self-esteem, self-confidence, and pride of the Chinese nation.
In this magnificent and touching national liberation war, the national spirit forged by the blood and lives of the Chinese people is a precious spiritual wealth and an inexhaustible source of strength that we should inherit and carry forward forever. The national spirit is related to the rise and fall of a nation. It is the internal driving force for a nation to realize its common ideals and development goals. It gathers the will and aspirations of the entire nation and guides the direction of the nation's progress.
This chapter is a bit of a joke. Recently, it has been a bit strict to eliminate evil. I don't dare to take the risk to write it.
