Zhang's rise was not only promoted by Zhao Erxun, but also framed by Du Yi. Du, male, 1880, from Qingmakan, Liaozhong County. His family is a bandit family, and his father and uncle are both famous local bandits. Du Lisan was deeply influenced by his father and uncle. /kloc-at the age of 0/7, he began to collect "tolls" on the Liaohe River, so he gradually became famous. Finally, with the reward of the Qing government, he established the "most wanted criminal".
1905 During the Russo-Japanese War, Russian forces gradually penetrated into the three northeastern provinces through "triple interference", which harmed Du's interests. At the same time, the Japanese also used Du to provide him with weapons and ammunition to fight against the Russians, and the result was that the Russians were miserable. After the Russo-Japanese War, Du Lisan's power grew stronger and stronger. At that time, he not only ransacked his home, but also sent his men to the military camps in Liaoyang and Yingkou to openly grab arms.
As mentioned earlier, Zhang and Du were the most powerful bandits in Northeast China at that time. Anyone familiar with history knows that Zhang is the ultimate winner. What's the unknown story? Because both Zhang and Du developed their power by looting, although the three northeastern provinces have a large area, conflicts often occur.
On one occasion, Zhang confiscated Du's men from crossing the border to grab his territory, which made Du fly into a rage. The last two men exchanged fire in Liaoyang. At that time, Zhang's power was not as good as Du's. Under Du's attack, he could only flee to Zhen 'an County. Seeing that Zhang was about to end in failure, at this moment, Mr. Tang, a local big landlord named Cun, stood up. This person usually associates with Du and Zhang. Finally, through the mediation of Mr. Tang, Zhang and Du became sworn brothers.
On the surface, they are "brothers". In fact, they all want to kill their opponents. At this time, Zhang waited for the opportunity. At that time, Xu Shichang, the governor of the three northeastern provinces, decided to let Zhang destroy Du, so that they could get the greatest benefit. Zhang also has his own small abacus. On the one hand, we can eradicate our opponents, on the other hand, we can further develop our own strength.
1907, under the planning of Zhang, Tang Yulin, Zhang and others, it was decided to set up a "Hongmen Banquet" to trap and kill Du. In order to dispel Du's doubts, Zhang also persuaded Du's uncle, and finally Du agreed to have dinner together. After Du's dinner, when he was about to leave, several big men immediately surrounded him and killed him. This once arrogant bandit died in Zhang's hands.
