Although Zhang is a warlord, he is patriotic. He participated in the Sino-Japanese War and helped the Qing Dynasty eliminate bandits like Du. Zhang also took the position of leader of Beiyang Army, and even later formed an alliance with Sun Yat-sen and Duan. Although Zhang was in a high position, the situation in Northeast China was very chaotic at that time, and there were Japanese Kwantung Army. The Japanese tried many times to win over Zhang, but Zhang refused. In the 1928 Huanggutun incident, Zhang was attacked by explosives laid by the Japanese army on his way back to Shenyang, and Zhang was seriously injured. After returning to Shenyang, he died after being rescued.
After Zhang's death, his coffin was not buried immediately, but delayed for nine years. How did this happen? In fact, this matter has to start with Zhang's life experience. At that time, Zhang wanted to move his mother's grave to other feng shui treasures, so he ordered his brother-in-law Wu Yongen to choose a cemetery, and later decided to set it in Yimafang, Linghai City. It can be said that this place is a designated ancestral grave. From then on, I began to think about my own grave. In any case, he is also a marshal. Anyway, he wanted to build a grand mausoleum, so he ordered people to build the Marshal Mausoleum. In order to make his mausoleum more magnificent, Zhang even used the cemetery of Nuerhachi's seven sons and got some precious things from the royal cemetery to decorate his cemetery.
Who knows that the Japanese army has sinister intentions? Zhang was killed by the Japanese army before the Yuan Shuai Mausoleum was built. Therefore, Zhang's coffin can only be placed in Guanjulin Temple in Shenyang. At that time, the political situation was chaotic, and the repair of Marshal Mausoleum stopped, which lasted for 9 years. 193 1 year, when the September 18th Incident of Japan invaded China, the Marshal Mausoleum had not been built, and even because of Japan's full-scale aggression, the project of Marshal Mausoleum was directly forced to proceed. Zhang's burial continued to be postponed.
It was not until 1937 that Zhang Xueliang asked Wu Tingkui, the son of Wu Yongen, to bury Zhang's coffin with Zhang's mother. For this matter, Wu Tingkui also discussed it with the Japanese army many times and got the consent of the Japanese army before he could hold a massive burial ceremony. Zhang's coffin was sent from Shenyang to Linghai City and finally buried with his wife and mother.
