Zhang Xueliang sighed, Zhang Xuesi's cause of death was unknown, and he didn't know how to endure
In 1991, Admiral Lu Zhengcao, who was over eighty years old, crossed the ocean and went to the United States to meet with Major Marshal Zhang Xueliang. Talking about the cause of Zhang Xuesi's death, Zhang Xueliang was silent for a long time, and finally slowly said: He may lack the quality of patience.
Who is Zhang Xuesi? What does Zhang Xueliang's words mean? Among Zhang Zuolin's eight children, some have become gentlemen, but the most promising is the eldest Zhang Xueliang, as the eldest son, he is most valued by Zhang Zuolin, and has become the object of Zhang Zuolin's key training, and eventually became his ** person.
In addition to Zhang Xueliang, there are four old Zhang Xuesi. Zhang Xuesi joined the party honorably when he was a teenager and followed the Communist Party on the road of revolution.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Xuesi went to Yan'an and was cordially received. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Xuesi was sent to the Northeast Battlefield and served as the chairman of Liaoning Province, as a witness to the liberation of his hometown, he realized what Zhang Xueliang wanted to do but failed to do.
In 1955, Zhang Xuesi, who was the deputy chief of staff of the Navy, was awarded the rank of rear admiral, however, he died tragically in 1970 at the age of 54.
His early death is regrettable.
The 90s have long since turned the page, Zhang Xueliang regained his freedom in the new world and settled in the United States. In the twilight of his life, the nostalgia was uncontrollable, and he longed to see his subordinates back then.
So, the arrival of the founding general Lu Zhengcao fulfilled this wish for him. Lu Zhengcao is physically tough and enjoys a 100-year-old life with Zhang Xueliang. They made an appointment to meet, and Lu Zhengcao mentioned Zhang Xuesi.
When they were detained together, Zhang Xuesi was in Lu Zhengcao's neighboring room, and they were all wronged. Zhang Xuesi has the perseverance of the Northeast people, he is incomprehensible, unyielding, sworn to fight to the death, and perseverance until he died unjustly.
Regarding his younger brother's misfortune, Zhang Xueliang was silent for a long time. He knows that character determines fate, and his younger brother's character is resolute and enterprising, which is a virtue, so he loves and admires his younger brother the most.
His younger brother Zhang Xuesi likes to swim, and once he swam in Beidaihe, he actually swam near the British ** ship, which amazed foreigners. He is a great swimmer, but he also has a stubborn side.
Zhang Xueliang also recalled a small story, once he went to Nanjing for a meeting, a Shanghai girlfriend came to him, Zhang Xuesi found out, and quarreled with him, asking him why he still brought a woman to the meeting.
Zhang Xueliang is on the right and Xie Xueping is in the middle. Zhang Xueliang explained that he didn't bring it, but happened to run into it. However, Zhang Xuesi still insisted. His character is too stubborn, and he will stick to what he believes in as soon as he sees it, but this kind of time is not always good.
He tends to appear overly determined in the face of difficulties, and may even suffer setbacks as a result. Zhang Xueliang once said to young people that a real man should be able to bend and stretch at the same time.
And his younger brother was too strong and did not know how to compromise and endure, which eventually led to the tragedy. Zhang Xueliang's life was full of hardships, and his perseverance led him to choose not to resist when the Japanese Kwantung Army occupied the Northeast, although this made him bitterly scolded by the countrymen.
But it was his patience that allowed him to be imprisoned for so long after the peaceful resolution of the Xi'an Incident, and even to live to be 101 years old. If Zhang Xuesi can learn to be patient, maybe he can continue to live at the age of 54, and even meet his brother Zhang Xueliang again.
Zhang Xueliang could never see his younger brother again, but he met his sister-in-law Xie Xueping. In 2000, when Zhang Xueliang celebrated his 100th birthday, Xie Xueping came to visit him and showed him Zhang Xuesi's **.
Zhang Xueliang watched for a long time and was speechless. Xie Xueping outlived Zhang Xueliang and died in 2022 at the age of 102.
