** period, the Japanese launched the "918 Incident", because the young marshal Zhang Xueliang ordered the Northeast Army not to resist, so the Northeast was occupied by the Japanese soldiers without blood, Zhang Xueliang is also known as the "general of non-resistance".
Zhang Xueliang was interviewed in his later years, saying that at that time he thought that the Japanese were only small-scale military friction, so he ordered no resistance, but he did not expect that the Japanese wanted to occupy the entire Northeast, and it was his own judgment that led to the loss of the Northeast.
After the outbreak of the "918 Incident", the main force of the Northeast Army retreated into the Guannai, and some of the Northeast Army did not withdraw in time, and most of these Northeast Army that did not withdraw into the Guannai surrendered to the Japanese and became puppet troops. There were also some officers and soldiers in Northeast China, who refused to surrender to the Japanese and spontaneously organized themselves to resist the Japanese, represented by Ma Zhanshan, Su Bingwen, Li Du, Zhang Dianjiu and others.
Zhang Dianjiu was an old school in the Northeast Army, and joined Wu Junsheng's team at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and later Wu Junsheng became the overseer of Heilongjiang, and he also became a brigade commander. After the outbreak of the "918 Incident", the main force of the Northeast Army withdrew into Guannei, while Zhang Dianjiu's troops were in Heilongjiang and had no time to retreat, so they stayed in Heilongjiang.
When the Japanese army occupied Fengtian and Jilin, and then prepared to attack Heilongjiang, Ma Zhanshan, Su Bingwen, Zhang Dianjiu and others refused to surrender and spontaneously organized troops to fight against the Japanese army. Due to the great superiority of the Japanese army, although the anti-Japanese forces in the northeast put up stubborn resistance, they were still outnumbered in the end, and Zhang Dianjiu had to lead the remaining troops to withdraw to the Soviet Union, and then make a detour back to Guannai.
Born in Chaoyang, Liaoning Province in 1882, Zhang Dianjiu joined the Fengtian Patrol Battalion as a young man and served as a sentry under Wu Junsheng.
In 1910, Zhang Dianjiu performed well in the army, so he was sent to study at the military academy in Fengtian, and after graduation, he returned to Wu Junsheng as a sentry commander.
In 1913, it was already the first period, Yuan Shikai was the big **, and Zhang Dianjiu also became the company commander, when the Mongolian bandits in the northeast often rebelled, Zhang Dianjiu followed Wu Junsheng to suppress the bandits. After the success of the suppression of bandits, Zhang Dianjiu was promoted to battalion commander, and because Zhang Zuolin liked learned new-school soldiers, he would naturally snub old-school soldiers like Zhang Dianjiu, so Zhang Dianjiu's battalion commander served for many years.
In 1924, at the end of the Second Zhifeng War, Zhang Zuolin defeated Wu Peifu of the direct line, the power of the Feng family reached its peak, and the Feng army began to expand on a large scale, and Zhang Dianjiu became the commander of the cavalry at this time.
In 1928, on the recommendation of Wu Junsheng, Zhang Dianjiu served as the brigade commander of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Fengjun Army and the envoy of Xingdong Town. In August, Zhang Dianjiu was reappointed as the guard of Hulunbuir Town and the deputy commander of the Eastern Provincial Railway Escort Army.
In December, Zhang Xueliang was already the new "King of the Northeast", under his leadership, the Feng warlords joined the National**, the Feng Army was reorganized into the Northeast Frontier Army, Zhang Xueliang served as the commander-in-chief, and Zhang Dianjiu was appointed as the commander of the First Brigade of the Heilongjiang Army.
In 1931, before the outbreak of the "918 Incident", Zhang Xueliang was in Guannei, and he asked Zhang Zuoxiang to be in charge of the affairs of the Northeast, but Zhang Zuoxiang's father died, and he returned to his hometown to take care of the aftermath, and temporarily handed over the military and political power of Jilin to Xiqia to deal with. On September 18, the "September 18 Incident" broke out, and the top military commander in Mukden at that time was Rong Zhen, who was the chief of staff of the Northeast Army Command.
When the Kwantung Army attacked the North Camp, the officers and soldiers of the North Camp applied to Rong Zhen for a counterattack, but Rong Zhen resolutely carried out Zhang Xueliang's order of non-resistance, and finally Mukden was occupied by the Japanese, and the Northeast Army, which was unwilling to surrender to the Japanese, withdrew into the pass. When Mukden was occupied by the Japanese, Xiqia announced its surrender to the Japanese in Jilin, resulting in Jilin being occupied again without bloodshed.
After Fengtian and Jilin were occupied by the Japanese, the Kwantung Army began to march to Heilongjiang again, when Ma Zhanshan and others were in Heilongjiang, resolutely not surrendering to the Japanese, so he was appointed chairman of Heilongjiang Province by Zhang Xueliang, and Ma Zhanshan commanded the "Battle of Jiangqiao". At that time, Zhang Dianjiu led his troops to garrison Zhalantun and Angangxi, which were far away from Qiqihar, so the Kwantung Army did not attack here at the first time.
Zhang Dianjiu knew that the Kwantung Army would definitely come here, so he formed an alliance with Su Bingwen, who was stationed in Hailar, and Su Bingwen served as the commander of the Second Brigade of the Northeast Army, and the two swore that they would never surrender to the Japanese and not allow the Kwantung Army to enter their defense area. After the Japanese took control of Qiqihar, they sent puppet policemen to Zhang Dianjiu and Su Bingwen's defense area, asking them to hand over the defense area and surrender to the Japanese.
Seeing that Zhang Dianjiu and Su Bingwen never surrendered, the Japanese asked the puppet regime in the Northeast to cancel all the official positions of the two and let the traitor Feng Guangyou take over Zhang Dianjiu's position. Zhang Dianjiu and Su Bingwen resolutely refused to surrender to the Japanese, and gathered troops to prevent the Japanese from attacking.
In September 1932, Su Bingwen and Zhang Dianjiu established the Northeast People's Salvation League, with Su Bingwen as the commander-in-chief and Zhang Dianjiu as the deputy commander.
On October 3, the Japanese army began to attack the Fularji offensive, where a regiment of Zhang Yufei was stationed, in the face of the Japanese attack, Zhang Yufei resisted stubbornly, repelled the Japanese attack many times, and killed hundreds of Japanese puppet soldiers. Soon after, the Japanese army increased troops towards Fularji, Zhang Dianjiu hurriedly sent a regiment to support, although the Japanese attack was repulsed, but the loss of anti-Japanese rescue was also very large, the regiment commander Gao Junling, who was responsible for reinforcing Fularji, had his arm blown up, and ten officers below the battalion were sacrificed.
After resisting the Japanese attack, Su Bingwen and Zhang Dianjiu held a military meeting, re-made military deployments, and prepared to unite the troops of Ma Zhanshan and others to Qiqihar together.
In late October, the Japanese army and the anti-Japanese rescue ** held a tug-of-war in Fularji, the Japanese army did not have any major advances, but after the Nenjiang River froze, the Japanese tanks and artillery were transported, and then the Japanese army sent cavalry troops, bypassing the position of the anti-Japanese rescue **, and directly attacked Zhang Dianjiu's base camp Zhalantun. Since Zhang Dianjiu's main forces were in the forward position, the Japanese army soon occupied Zhalantun, and Zhang Dianjiu had no choice but to lead his troops to withdraw to Hailar and join up with Su Bingwen's troops.
Soon after, the Japanese army gathered heavy troops to attack Hailar, in the absence of reinforcements, Su Bingwen and Zhang Dianjiu led their troops to resist stubbornly, and when the ammunition was exhausted, Su Bingwen and Zhang Dianjiu had to lead their troops to retreat to the Soviet Union.
On December 4, 1932, Zhang Dianjiu led his troops to withdraw to the Soviet Union, and Zhang Yuling led some people to leave Zhang Dianjiu and enter Rehe through the south, and later joined the Anti-Japanese Allied Army led by Feng Yuxiang.
After Zhang Dianjiu and others arrived in the Soviet Union, they then made a detour from the Soviet Union to Europe, and finally returned to China, which was praised by the people of the whole country, and there is no record of Zhang Dianjiu's later life.
