Life of the characters

Tan Zixin (1896-1938), named Jinghua, was born in Jinxi, Liaoning Province. He was a general of the National Revolutionary Army and graduated from the second phase of the Northeast Army lecture hall. He successively served as platoon commander, company commander, company commander of the 5th cavalry brigade, battalion commander, regiment commander, staff officer, battalion commander of the 17th division, company commander, adjutant, battalion commander, regiment commander and brigade commander of the 8th cavalry brigade of Fengjun army. He came down to Japan after the September 18th Incident. On November 3, Tan Zixin led the fourth detachment of Heilongjiang puppet army to join Deng Wen and huogang in Anda. He served as the deputy commander of the 6th army of the Northeast volunteer army, and then retreated to Rehe with the rest of the mazhanshan army through the Middle East Railway. He was recruited by the branch of the Beiping army. Later, Feng Yuxiang organized the Anti Japanese Alliance Army, and Tan Zixin once transferred to the Alliance army. He served as the deputy commander of the 1st route of the Chahar Anti Japanese Alliance Army The road army was led to the National Army (Deng Wen was assassinated in a brothel). After returning to the national army, Tan Zixin's troops were changed into the 10th cavalry division. At one time, it was divided into two brigades, which had a huge establishment of six cavalry regiments, one infantry regiment and one artillery regiment. Later, it was reorganized into three cavalry regiments. Of course, Tan Zixin returned to Zhang Xueliang and took part in the Xi'an Incident. On February 2, 1937, Wang Yizhe was killed, and the Trinity failed completely. Tan detained several senior generals of Yang Hucheng's Department on February 3, and announced that he joined the national government with a gun and became the commander of the fourth cavalry army. In December 1937, the military commission ordered the army to be reduced to the new 5th division. As a bandit, he was attacked by a battalion of the 166 th division and captured after being annihilated.

He was shot in June 1938.

Xi'an Incident

On the second day of the double 12th incident, at 9 am on December 13, 1936, the 10th cavalry division of the second northeast cavalry army was taking up the task of "intercepting the Red Army" in the middle of Tongxin City, tuanchengzi, Ningxia. When the battle was in confrontation, he suddenly received a telegram from deputy commander Zhang Xueliang, ordering the whole division to rush to Pucheng County in Northern Shaanxi to set up defense. At that time, no one knew the reason for the defense. When the troops arrived at the headquarters of the 67th army in Guyuan, they learned that deputy commander Zhang Xueliang cooperated with General Yang Hucheng to remonstrate Chiang Kai Shek and put forward eight propositions to unite the whole country against Japan. So the morale of the army was inspired, and they traveled day and night. On the 15th, they arrived in Pucheng for defense. He served as the left wing to cover the main forces from Weinan to Zhongnanshan and prevent the invasion of Chiang Kai Shek at Tongguan. After more than ten days, because Chiang Kai Shek accepted the eight propositions of stopping the civil war and uniting against Japan, Zhang Xueliang thought that the goal had been achieved and sent Chiang back to Beijing.

However, when Zhang Jingxu did not return, a few of the generals of the Northeast Army took advantage of the opportunity to invest in Chiang Kai Shek to survive. First of all, Tan Zixin, commander of the 10th division of Qi, defected from the Northeast Army Group. Tanyuan served as company commander of Cheng Zhiyuan cavalry brigade in Heilongjiang Province. During the Japanese invasion in the September 18th Incident, the army and people of Heilongjiang Province rose up to fight against Japan at the call of General Ma Zhanshan. After the Jiangqiao war, TanSui led his troops to join the Japanese army. After being supplemented, he returned to the Northeast volunteer army and called himself a detachment. When Ma Zhanshan went abroad, Deng Wenjun took care of the remains. Tan also invested in Deng, which gradually expanded. Later, Deng retreated to the area near Zhangjiakou and returned to North China for the first time. Liu Yifei directed the training and prepared to march toward the northeast. After Liu left his post, Shi fengyuxiang called on the army and people of re chasui to resist Japan in Zhangjiakou, and Deng and Tan's headquarters were under his command. Soon, because of the conflict of power, Tan sent his cronies to kill Deng Wen in the brothel, and falsely accused Deng of mutiny. Feng for its deception, immediately appointed tan as commander. Soon after the failure of Feng's Department, Tan's Department was reorganized into the 10th cavalry division, and was transferred to Zhoujiakou, Runan and Shangcai in Henan Province for training, under the command of Liu Shi of Kaifeng Suizhou department. Later, it was organized by the Northeast cavalry army and went to the northwest to intercept the Red Army.

At the end of 1936, when Zhang Xueliang sent Jiang back to Beijing, Tanzi Xinmi sent his chief of staff, Zhang Shusen, to Kaifeng to show his hospitality to Liu Shi. At this time, the Central Committee of Chiang Kai Shek was eager to split up the Northeast Army. He sent it to the army by himself. When he was welcomed, he would be promoted to the commander of the army and paid millions of yuan. He would make an appointment to betray the flag at one stroke, and the official pay would come. Chief of staff Zhang is still in Kaifeng, waiting for Pucheng to move. On January 28, 1937, Tan Zixin called together the leaders Wang Yujiang, Zhang Jingkui and Zhang Qingdi (now Zhang Yan) to Pucheng division headquarters for a meeting. But because it is the wish of the officers and men to unite against Japan, especially the officers and men of the division are all composed of the Northeast Anti Japanese volunteers. They are homesick and have a strong anti Japanese sentiment. Tan is afraid that the subordinates who advocate Anti Japanese oppose it. Therefore, it is absolutely secret in advance, even as the commander at that time. When the meeting began, Tan said: "the Northeast Army and the northwest army have betrayed Jiang this time, arrested Jiang and released Jiang. The resentment has been deep. It is difficult for Zhang Xueliang to return to Beijing. The Northeast Army is bound to disintegrate. It is better to plan for himself as soon as possible. I have sent chief of staff Zhang Shusen to Kaifeng to contact Liu Shi, and Liu Yiyun tried to expand the army. As long as we occupy Pucheng, disarm the local people, send a telegram to show that we are separated from the Northeast Group, and support the Central Committee of Jiang, we will be successful, but I don't know what opinions you have! "At that time, the leaders looked at each other, and it was hard to answer. Wang Yujiang, Zhang Jingkui and Tan had been friends for many years, and they all agreed to obey the order. At that time, I was forced by the situation and had to be complacent on the surface, so tan was overjoyed. When I returned to the regiment, I was deeply distressed. Zeng secretly consulted with Zhang Pinqing, who was attached to the regiment, and planned to get rid of the rebel division. He led the whole regiment to Xianyang and returned to the second cavalry army.

At 9 am on February 3, Tan convened a meeting at the division headquarters. He told Liu Shi that he should act immediately and decided to disarm the security forces in Pucheng at 9 pm this evening. At that time, Pucheng had three brigades of security headquarters, which were stationed in the city and Beiguan. Another guard of Yang Hucheng mansion, Pucheng is Yang's hometown, where Mrs. Yang lives. The division headquarters ordered the 28th regiment to disarm the security brigade in Beiguan, the 29th regiment to disarm the security brigade in ximenli and the guards of yanggongguan, and the 30th regiment to disarm the security brigade in dongmenli and the security headquarters. Prior to the incident, Tan Zixin had invited the security commander to the division headquarters to play cards. He started the operation at 9 p.m. and resisted a little. By 10 p.m., he had all his weapons removed. Tan sent a telegram to Liu Shi, who was deeply praised. On the afternoon of the 4th, I secretly asked Zhang Pinqing to tell the close officials that they were going to lead the Department out that night. But because of the company commander's confidants, it was difficult to keep secret. At ten o'clock in the evening, Tan Tu talked with him about important matters and repeatedly called to urge me to go to the division headquarters. Knowing that the situation was not good, he and Zhang Pinqing only led more than 50 officers and soldiers to the Xianyang military headquarters on a star night ride and separated from the 10th division. Later, the officers and soldiers of the 10th division fled to northern Shaanxi to take part in the revolution.

After he joined Chiang Kai Shek without authorization, he made contact with the enemy in Zhangde area of Xinxiang during the Anti Japanese war. That is to say, the casualties fled and broke up. After he arrived in Kaifeng, he was reduced to brigade and tandiao counsellor. At the time of adaptation, Tan Zixin led more than ten cars, carried his relatives with two or three hundred people, and fled to western Henan as a bandit. Later, after Tang Enbo was incorporated into the army, he still embezzled his wages and plundered the place. In the name of summoning, Tang Enbo arrested him at Xinyang east railway station and sent him to camp in Wuhan for execution.

The Anti Japanese army collapsed

The fourth cavalry army was expanded from the 10th Cavalry Division in September 1937. However, the army had only one 10th Cavalry Division under its jurisdiction. In December, the military commission ordered the army to be downsized to the new 5th cavalry division. Tan Zixin was determined to resist the order, so he had to find his own way out. Tan Zixin brought his troops to Xiangshan temple, Baofeng County, on the eastern edge of the western mountain of Henan Province. He joined the local bandit leader Gao Laomo (Gao Lingyun, the former commander of 257 regiment of gaoshuangcheng Department of the 86th division of the Kuomintang, with the name of Xiaxuan). He planned to draw his troops into Funiu Mountain and occupy the mountain as king by virtue of his superiority in weapons and ammunition. He would not make plans until his troops were strong.

On December 13, Tan Zixin led the crowd to enter Lushan County along the Lubao highway, and soon got involved with Zhao zideng, a bandit in Zhaocai township. Because of the rugged mountain road and the difficulty of driving, Tan Zixin first sent his wife, old and young, with soft gold and silver, to Zhao zideng for deposit. At that time, Yang Bichang, the head of Lushan County, received a call from Liu Shi, and the gate of the city was closed. Tan had to pull his men, horses, and supplies to the area of Wangzhuang in the north of the city for stationing, waiting for Zhao zideng to take advantage of local forces to build a mountain road, and then led his army into the mountain. At that time, the war of resistance against Japan was going on, and Eastern Henan was not occupied. Liu Zhi, director of Henan regional appeasement, heard of Tan army's mutiny in Kaifeng and fled to the west of Henan. He then sent Zhou Yu, head of Henan provincial security regiment, who was very capable of fighting, to lead a strengthening regiment to follow him.

The army and people in Lushan city were worried that Tanzi new army would attack the city and the county town would not be protected. Several times in one night, they called for help from the 166 division of the Kuomintang army stationed in Luoyang at that time. Gao Ziju, the teacher of the division, is a native of Lushan County. He always cherishes his hometown. However, the division was in charge of defense along the lines of Gongxian and Luoyang, and faced off the 14th division of Kenji tohihara of the Japanese army across the river. Therefore, after Gao Ziju received the electricity, he was in a dilemma. He did not send troops to rescue his neighbors. Once the county is lost and ravaged by bandits, it will be criticized by the neighbors. There were no soldiers to send, and there was no order from Liu Shi (the division was under Liu Shi's command at that time). He sent troops without permission. In the future, the superior would blame him
