Zhang, a warlord in Northeast China, was buried many years after his death. What is the reason?

Zhang is the king of Northeast China. Although he was born a bandit, he gradually grew into the largest warlord in Northeast China in the unpredictable late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, and even became the person who controlled the Beijing regime, completing his own transformation. It can be said that he enjoyed the scenery for half his life, but his presence was an obstacle to the Japanese invasion of Northeast China. 1928, Zhang was bombed on his way back to Northeast China, which was the Huanggutun incident. However, this great warlord who lived a good life was buried nine years after his death. So why did he end up like this?

In fact, this matter is very simple, because Zhang Xueliang didn't have a chance to bury his father.

1. After Zhang Zuolin was killed, Zhang Xueliang took over and controlled the Northeast. After all, for Zhang, the identity is there and we can't just bury it. Regarding Zhang's burial, Lao Zhang's family was very moved. In order to find the cemetery, their family sent many Feng Shui teachers to the famous mountains and rivers in Liaoshen, and Mr. Shui chose this place, which he called "Tiebei Mountain in front, Jinlongwan in the back, Phoenix Park in the east and Golden Beach in the west". Zhang Xueliang even went to see it himself and thought it was a good place, so he decided to build a mausoleum for Zhang Jianyi here. This is Marshal Lin.

2. In order to bury Zhang, under the auspices of General Zhang Xueliang, the Marshal Funeral Preparation Office was established, with Peng Xian (general manager of Northeast Official Bank) as the general manager, Shi Ren as the manager, Zheng Tianshun, director of Marshal Office, and general affairs section chief. Responsible for building the mausoleum. They also selected a good design company to take charge of the project construction through bidding. Investment of the whole project140,000 yuan. It is expected to be completed in three years.

During this period, Zhang's coffin was parked in Chikurinji, Dongguan, Shenyang for a period of time. But before Marshal Lin finished, the September 18th Incident broke out and Japan invaded Northeast China. Zhang Xueliang carried out Chiang Kai-shek's policy of non-resistance and led the army into the customs. Then, this is equivalent to handing over the Northeast to the Japanese, and Marshal Lin has stopped working. On the eve of the Xi Incident, Wu Tingkui, the son of Wu Yongen, and Zhang Xueliang were in Xi. Zhang Xueliang had a premonition that it was unlikely that he would return to the Northeast, so he asked him to bury the coffin of the Prince in Yimafang as soon as possible and entrusted him to take care of the tomb of the Zhang family.

In the northeast, Wu Tingkui joined forces with many old Japanese forces to negotiate with the Japanese puppet authorities. Finally, at 1937, Wu Tingkui and Zhang's sister's son paid tribute to Xiao Baoling. Zhang's coffin was transported from Shenyang to the station by train and then carried to Yimafang to be buried with his wife Zhao. A generation of warlords, in this way, was buried after nearly ten years.
