In 1904, there was a severe drought in Zhili and Shandong, and the people were hungry and "broke into the eastern part of the country". Among the crowd who went out to make a living, there was a girl named Zhang Shuzhen. She is a native of Cao County, Shandong, and followed her father Zhang Mingde to the northeast by water. After settling down a little, Zhang Mingde worked as a stevedore in the foot shop, and his monthly salary was not enough to buy 20 catties of cornmeal. One day, Zhang Mingde twisted his waist while working and had to go home to rest. In order to treat her father's illness, Zhang Shuzhen knelt on the side of the road in the cold wind. Begging passers-by to give her a little help. However, Zhang Shuzhen's begging was useless, and Zhang Mingde died in poverty and illness.
After her father's death, Zhang Shuzhen had no support and lived on the streets. An old bustard in a brothel saw that she was a little beautiful and took her in. In this way, Zhang Shuzhen fell into the dust and made a living by laughing every day. By chance, Zhang Shuzhen met a man named Da Long. He is the leader of the bandits in the area of Princess Ridge, and he has an endless amount of silver dollars in his hand. Dalong likes Zhang Shuzhen very much and buys her a lot of jewelry and jewelry. Zhang Shuzhen was tired of the life in the brothel and went up the mountain with Dalong to become a bandit. At that time, bandits in the Northeast were very rampant, and after Zhang Shuzhen fell into the grass, she practiced her marksmanship hard. She has a high level of understanding, and soon became a heroine among bandits. From 1922 to 1923, Zhang Shuzhen "smashed kilns" dozens of times in Gongzhuling and Changchun, and grabbed more than 300,000 silver dollars.
After becoming rich, Zhang Shuzhen's ambition swelled, and she gradually came up with the idea of replacing Dalong. One day, Zhang Shuzhen invited Dalong to drink. When the wine was hot, Zhang Shuzhen smashed the glass, and everyone shot Dalong to death. After Dalong's death, Zhang Shuzhen became the number one female bandit. After coming to power, Zhang Shuzhen adjusted the strategy of "smashing the kiln". She no longer stormed the bandits' deep mansion compounds, but robbed them by outwitting them.
Once, when Zhang Shuzhen dressed up as a Peking Opera actress to celebrate a landlord's birthday, her subordinates mixed guns in costumes and brought them into the landlord's home. The landlord's family was drunk, Zhang Shuzhen fired a gunshot, and the bandits looted the landlord's property. In order to eliminate Zhang Shuzhen, the Jilin Provincial Police Department thought of many ways. They worked with the landlord to have the police disguise themselves as caretakers. Zhang Shuzhen went down the mountain to rob these landlords, and the police took out pistols and mortars that had been prepared. In the end, Zhang Shuzhen's team was broken up, and her whereabouts are unknown.
The police were unwilling to let Zhang Shuzhen go and asked around about her whereabouts. Eventually, they found Zhang Shuzhen in a brothel in Changchun. It turned out that Zhang Shuzhen returned to her old business and worked as a prostitute in a brothel in Changchun. The police disguised themselves as prostitutes and arrested Zhang Shuzhen while she was undressing. After Zhang Shuzhen**, she knew that she would not escape death. In the face of interrogation, she did not say a word. Despite this, Zhang Shuzhen was sentenced to death. In January 1925, Zhang Shuzhen was executed in Changchun. Throughout Zhang Shuzhen's life, it can be described as ups and downs. She was originally an ordinary girl and lived an ordinary life. However, fate made her a bandit. In this sense, before the founding of the country, who was the first female hooligan?There is no doubt that it is Zhang Shuzhen.
