After reading the mantra of the temple, Han Kongque sneered. Sun Dianying was an out-and-out scumbag, but it was ironic that such a scumbag died at a healthy age.
Sun Dianying himself was a warlord and bandit. He surrendered to the Japanese and became a traitor. The Japanese surrendered, and Sun Dianying surrendered to Chiang Kai-shek. However, Chiang Kai-shek used the excuse of needing to use the traitor troops to take him in again.
Therefore, the Sun Division was reorganized into the newly formed Fourth Route Army and transferred to the Jinghan Line from Xinxiang to Anyang to contain the Eighth Route Army.
After the full-scale civil war began, Sun Dianying's troops were reorganized into the third column and were stationed in Tang and Yin.
In May 1947, the People's Liberation Army captured Tangyin, and Sun Dianying was captured without a fight.
In the days after he was captured, Sun Dianying often cursed Chiang hysterically for being unkind and unjust.
Sun Dianying's life was cunning and capricious, and he could be said to have been full of evildoers. However, the Communist Party still remembered his good performance during the Anti-Japanese War and treated him very leniently.
No matter how you look at it, it violates the rules.
When did those ancestors treat prisoners so favorably?
So when he saw these records, Han Kongque just laughed it off, but now, he had a new idea.
But no matter what, whether it was generals, Zhang Xueliang, Mao, or the Japanese, they all treated Sun Dianying very favorably. This is an indisputable fact.
Although everyone wanted to kill Sun Dianying, he ended up with a miserable end.
Because Sun Dianying felt a complete failure, he was depressed and depressed all day long. In addition, he had smoked opium for decades, and he suffered from post-smoking dysentery, which was an incurable disease at the time.
Despite this, the Communist Party still sought medical treatment for him in the spirit of humanitarianism. This is clearly recorded in official history.
This kind of humanitarian spirit and magnanimous action deeply touched his heart. When he was critically ill, he confessed and said: "I have done many bad things in the past. I am sorry for the people and the party. The party is magnanimous and does not care about grudges."
I don’t know how many times better Jiang is!”
It was in the autumn of this year that Sun Dianying fell seriously ill and died, ending his warlord career.
It was such a person who was able to die a good death. Even if Sun Dianying's fate was not good, he was not directly shot to death by a human wall.
Why was such a villain-level character not severely punished?
There is of course a reason for this. Sun Dianying was not severely punished afterwards. The reason is actually very simple.
In the beginning, no one could deal with him casually. Although Sun Dianying was nominally subordinate to Chiang Kai-shek, in fact he was an independent warlord. The only way to deal with him was to attack with force.
Sun Dianying obtained a large amount of money by selling the treasures of the Qing Dynasty Tombs, and his army quickly expanded, becoming a decisive military force.
In the spring of 1930, during the Great War in the Central Plains, Sun Dianying rebelled against Chiang Kai-shek and joined Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan. He was subsequently appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Route of the Fourth Front Army and chairman of Anhui and Anhui Provinces.
Later, he surrendered to the Northeast King Zhang Xueliang and was named the commander of the 40th Division.
By 1934, Sun Dianying's army had reached 80,000 men. This was already considered top-notch among the warlords at that time.
It seems that there is nothing Jiang can do to deal with Sun Dianying. This is the fundamental reason why he cannot deal with Sun Dianying.
For example, if Chiang Kai-shek now wants to arrest Sun Dianying, which policeman in the whole of China would dare to arrest the Tu emperor with 80,000 troops?
If it is true, then this policeman may not want to live anymore!
Not to mention a policeman, even the commander of the Central Army with 20,000 troops did not dare to do anything to Sun Dianying. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese were beaten to pieces by Sun Dianying.
However, there are naturally other reasons for not being severely punished, namely bribery.
After Sun Dianying robbed the Dongling Tomb, it is said that he took out as much as one-third of the property and gave him gifts in all directions. Of course, this legend is definitely untrue. There are bribes from Sun Dianying, but if he really took it out, it would be too much.
With so many treasures, the only outcome waiting for him is to be hacked.
Therefore, the amount of bribes must be large, but the real treasures must not be much. This was also confirmed by the Dongling stolen goods later seized.
Xu Yuanquan, the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army who once served as Sun Dianying's senior commander, later handed over a batch of Dongling cultural relics. These cultural relics were given to him by Sun Dianying and asked him to help manage some officials.
The number of treasures in this batch is astonishing, including more than 300 items including: gold bracelets, rubies, sapphires, tourmalines, Chinese jade rings, jadeite, red coral faucets, flowered coral beans, agate double-mouthed snuff bottles, white jade snuff bottles, etc.
Although these things look like a lot and are first-class treasures, they are still very different from real rare treasures.
In addition to some of the jewelry mentioned above, there are rumors that Sun Dianying also gave some rare treasures to Jiang, He, Song Meiling, and Kong Xiangxi. However, it turns out that there are no legendary treasures among the relics of these people after their death.
In particular, it is said that the Empress Dowager Cixi gave the black pearl to Soong Meiling, but in fact no one has ever seen this treasure since then. After Soong Meiling passed away, her belongings were checked, and no one was found.
Obviously, it is just rumored that the black pearl cannot be in Soong Meiling's hands.
In fact, the mystery of the whereabouts of the treasure is the main reason that truly ensures that Sun Dianying lives a free and unrestrained life.
It is basically certain that most of the treasures were obtained by Sun Dianying, and he also sold a lot of them, mainly to two types of people: one is domestic jewelry and antique dealers, such people are in Beiping and Tian,
Tianjin has the largest number of people and is also very powerful. Others are sold to foreign antique collectors.
A piece of news in the "Central Daily News" in 1928 can be seen from the side: Tianjin and Tianjin Customs seized 35 boxes of antique treasures at one time. It was found that these items were shipped to France by Zhang Yueyan, the antique shop manager of Ji Zhenhuan in Peking.
Treasures from the Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty.
At that time, such reports appeared almost every week, and a large number of treasures were lost in this way. However, only Sun Dianying knew how much these treasures accounted for Sun Dianying's harvest.
In the Dongling Tomb, there are some of the most famous treasures in Chinese history. In addition to the black pearls mentioned above, there is also Cixi's favorite during her lifetime, the nine exquisite pagodas carved from white jade and said to be able to "flow clouds of smoke".
There are also four emerald watermelons in Cixi's coffin, two with white skin and yellow seeds and pink flesh, two with green skin and white seeds and yellow flesh, and several exquisite jade cabbages.
A string of beads on Qianlong's neck contains 108 priceless beads, which are called the Eighteen Arhat beads.
The Nine-Dragon Sword worn by Qianlong was engraved with nine golden dragons, symbolizing "Nine Nine Returns to One", etc.
Most of the treasures inside have disappeared, and only two treasures are roughly known where they are.
Currently, there is an emerald cabbage in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Taiwan. It is the treasure of the museum. According to expert analysis, it is probably one of the several cabbages lost in the Mausoleum of Cixi.
As for Qianlong's Nine-Dragon Sword, which is said to have magical powers and bring bad luck to unsuitable wearers (legend has it that only emperors can wear it), the whereabouts are also known.
At that time, Sun Dianying was in charge, and he gave this sword to Dai Li. Dai Li died in a plane crash in Nanjing after the war, and finally fell into the hands of Han Peacock.
As for whether this sword is Qianlong's Nine Dragons Sword, it is still unknown. If so, it is an absolute national treasure.
Therefore, outside rumors that Sun Dianying paid a lot of bribes and sold a large amount of Tangling treasures are actually rumors. Even if the Tangling treasures are clearly confirmed, they are just some pearls, gems and corals, or coppers and some fragmentary jades.
thing.
Although these things can be considered treasures, they are nothing compared to emerald cabbage, emerald watermelon, or even emerald peaches, apricots and plums, let alone black pearls or the Nine Linglong Pagoda.
Among these treasures, only the jade cabbage and the Nine-Dragon Sword were truly lost, while the other treasures were all collected by Sun Dianying.
Sun Dianying worked thousands of miles as an official just for money. Sun Dianying originally just wanted to get some military pay. No one expected that their gains would be so huge.
With no other choice, Sun Dianying had no choice but to change his plan, so many treasures from the Dongling Tomb were leaked later. Among them, the famous ones include the Nine Dragon Sword, the Nine Linglong Pagoda, etc., as well as some pearls, jades, and bronzes, but most of them
was still secretly hidden by Sun Dianying.
Because Sun Dianying knew that if anyone knew about the treasures he obtained, he would not be able to survive, so he hid all these things. Even if someone knew about it in the future, as long as he did not tell the whereabouts of these treasures
, he will not die.
Sun Dianying achieved a lifetime of achievements because of the Dongling treasures, and was remembered all his life because of these treasures.
The main reason why the Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty were stolen was naturally Sun Dianying's greed, but here we must also despise the extravagance of the Manchu rulers.
They were extravagant and extravagant during their lifetimes, but they actually produced such extravagant burial objects after their deaths, which is also an important reason why their tombs were robbed.
If they wanted to be buried naked without a single burial object like Genghis Khan, do you think anyone would send out thousands of soldiers to rob the tomb?
But now, all this has come to Han Peacock's advantage. Today, seventy or eighty years later, Sun Dianying, who has been plotted all his life, has left all his gains to Han Peacock.
Although Han Kongque knew that he would not be able to get this treasure so easily, as long as he touched it, his chances of getting it would be infinite.
After confirming that this was Sun Dianying's treasure, Han Peacock would certainly not forget the ten unique treasures in Cixi's tomb.
The Empress Dowager Cixi was a top figure who was blessed with power and wealth. The treasure-filled coffin she was buried in in the "Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty" was considered "the best in the world".
But the most enviable thing is the "Top Ten Treasures" she has hidden beside her.
The first one has been obtained by Han Peacock, which is the Cixi Night Pearl. This treasure is valued at 810 million yuan! It is an absolute rare treasure. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
