When it comes to China's modern history, the ** period is undoubtedly a period of much attention. During this period, China was not a unified country, but was divided by warlords of various stripes, and the situation was turbulent and full of war. Among them, the great warlord Zhang Zuolin in the northeast has the most powerful Feng faction, and his territory has gathered many talents. In this context, I would like to focus on two characters, namely Yang Yuting and Guo Songling.
First of all, Yang Yuting is Zhang Zuolin's right-hand man, and he serves as chief of staff under Zhang Zuolin, a very critical position. No matter what decision Zhang Zuolin makes, he will discuss with Yang Yuting in advance, he can be said to be Zhang Zuolin's strategist, and he plays an important role in Zhang Zuolin's development. And Guo Songling is Zhang Xueliang's mentor and Xiao Zhang's superior leader. Therefore, Guo Songling had a huge influence on Xiao Zhang, and he began to teach Xiao Zhang and impart military knowledge to him since he was a child. Although they both served the Zhang family, due to the different ideas of their superiors, the concepts of the two naturally diverged. Although there were contradictions due to some things, there was no real conflict between the two in private, and the only difference was the future direction of the Northeast Army.
For Zhang Zuolin and the veterans of the Northeast Army, their ambition was not only to occupy the Northeast, but also to introduce troops into Guannai and realize the ambition of national occupation. Yang Yuting is the one who holds this idea, so he often persuades him to enter the customs in front of Zhang Zuolin. After a long period of persuasion, Zhang Zuolin launched two wars in a few years, but both ended in the defeat of the Northeast Army. This caused dissatisfaction among Zhang Xueliang, who had always hoped that the Northeast Army would be able to protect the territory and people of the Northeast. However, the two wars caused the Northeast Army to suffer heavy losses, which caused great anger among Guo Songling and Zhang Xueliang. Although they did not tear their faces with Zhang Zuolin, the contradictions between the two have accumulated to a great extent.
Subsequently, Guo Songling had no choice but to raise troops to admonish and lead his team to confront the Northeast Army. It's a pity that his strength was too weak and he didn't have any support, and he was finally defeated by the Northeast Army, and Guo Songling was thrown into the wild. Xiao Zhang endured it silently until after Zhang Zuolin's death, and his anger against Yang Yuting broke out. Soon after, Yang Yuting was killed by Xiao Zhang's own hands.
