Zhang Xueliang is a famous patriotic general and was once a heavy smoker. After the September 18th Incident, the northeast where Zhang Xueliang lived soon fell, and Zhang Xueliang became the object of abuse. Great mental pressure forced Zhang Xueliang to take more opium to relieve the pressure. As time went on, his demand for opium increased.
At that time, the national government issued a drug rehabilitation order, and Zhang Xueliang's drug rehabilitation had to be put on the agenda. How can the road to detoxification be smooth sailing? Only two days later, Zhang Xueliang was fed up. He rolled all over and even hit his head against the wall when his drug addiction came up. Yu Fengzhi was worried that it would hurt his head, so he went to the Japanese military doctor, hoping that the doctor could help Zhang Xueliang.
When the Japanese military doctor arrived, he gave Zhang Xueliang an injection without saying anything. This injection is very useful. Zhang Xueliang immediately recovered his spirit, and the whole family was very happy, thinking that he had given up opium.
But no one knows that this needle contains morphine, which is more poisonous than opium. After the injection, Zhang Xueliang stopped smoking opium, but what is even more deadly is that he didn't take morphine for a day. When they knew it was morphine, the Japanese doctor had fled back to Japan. In order to cheer up Zhang Xueliang, he can only insist on taking morphine every day, because smoking opium is useless.
This situation lasted until1March, 933, when he resigned as the chief commander and announced that he would go to Shanghai drug rehabilitation center for detoxification.
Zhang Xueliang began to give up drugs at the suggestion of a foreign doctor. Foreign doctors told Zhang Xueliang that only by being cruel can he get rid of drug addiction completely, so they tied Zhang Xueliang to the bed and ignored him no matter how he struggled or shouted until he had no strength to struggle.
This painful detoxification method lasted for about a week, and Zhang Xueliang was in a coma for a week, but fortunately, Zhang Xueliang finally succeeded in detoxification.
Extended data:
Zhang Xueliang recalled in his later years that the taste was skin-free.
1932, Zhang Xueliang retired and prepared to go to Europe. Before he left, he listened to Song Ziwen's advice and prepared to give up morphine. He tied himself to a chair, took medicine to make people sleep first, and then struggled after waking up, which made people feel uncomfortable. Before giving up drugs, Zhang Xueliang handed the gun to the adjutant and said that anyone who dared to give me medicine (morphine) and let go would be shot on the spot.
For seven days and seven nights, Zhang Xueliang struggled and screamed, and finally seconded drugs. At the same time, his two wives also gave up drugs.
The Zhang family has a tradition of smoking opium. Both Zhang Xueliang's parents used to smoke opium, but they all gave it up later. Therefore, Zhang Xueliang's detoxification also has family influence.
