You can find: Yang's life.
Yang (1870 ~ 1933), a native of Caoyankou (now Jianhu) community in Shanggang, Yancheng, was born in a miller's family. In the 22nd year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (1896), the county took the examination of "Wusheng". Later, he joined forces with salt officials such as Ma who were active in Xinxing and Miaowan to help smuggle salt. After Yang joined green gang, he and Ma joined Xu Baoshan, the leader of Kuihong Gang, a smuggling giant in the Yangtze River, as his teacher. Xu Kaishan attracted followers and became the leader of the salt owl gang in He Lixia. Later, he was recruited by Liu Kunyi, Governor of Liangjiang River, who was in charge of anti-smuggling in Huaibei. Under the care of Xu, he successively served as the commander and assistant ambassador of Nanyang Navy. During the period, Yang's new camp was stationed in the county. After the outbreak of Wuchang Uprising, the 13th Association of Puxin Army stationed in Qingjiang demanded repayment and mutiny, and the rebels looted Jianyang and Huduo. Geng Huatang, who was stationed in the anti-smuggling camp in Shanghai, took advantage of the chaos and entered Xinxing Town, plotting to occupy Yancheng. The territory was jittery and surprised several times overnight. At the request of Lingzhou of Yancheng County, local gentry and business leaders, Yang cooperated with Yancheng Camp to defend the city. After the deployment was confirmed, Yang led some soldiers to the station, boarded the Genghuatang warship with one gun, figuratively speaking, and advised them not to harass the place. Geng learned that Yancheng had come prepared and immediately returned it to Shanghai. Soon, Yancheng announced the recovery, and Yangzhou Military and Political Branch appointed Yang as the Minister of Yancheng Military and Political Branch. Xu Baoshan, then commander of the Second Army of the Soviet Union, appointed him as the brigade commander of the 23rd Huncheng Brigade and the guerrilla commander of Xu Huaihai, who was stationed in Yongning Temple in Yancheng. In the third year of the Republic of China (19 14), Xu Baoshan, who took refuge in Yuan Shikai, was killed by the revolutionary army Chen, and the second army was downsized into the fourth division. Yang's Huncheng Brigade was organized as the Eighth Route Army of Dingwu Army, which was led by Zhang Xun to patrol the river and then transferred to Hefei. After Zhang Xun became governor of Anhui Province, he plotted to promote the restoration of the Qing Dynasty, and Yang advised him to conform to the irreversible trend. In the Republic of China 13, the situation in Anhui changed and Yang was excluded. Although he is a soldier, he can care about local public welfare. During his tenure as brigade commander of Hunchenglv, he dredged the riverbed downstream of Datuankou at the request of local people, donated money for disaster relief, set up schools and raised charitable funds, which was praised by local people. The county boundary is located in the hinterland of Lixia, west of Gangan, with frequent floods. During his stay in Shanghai, Yang called the villagers to hold a meeting to promote Huai River and asked the authorities to control Huai River. The stain of his life is at the historical juncture when Yuan Shikai stole the achievements of the Revolution of 1911. In order to please Yuan Shikai, he even trapped Liu Tianheng, commander-in-chief of Yuan Jun, in the north of Yancheng. In the third year of the Republic of China, that is, 19 14, Liu Tian was ordered by Yuan Shikai to be executed in Yuhuatai, Nanjing. Yang's slip not only made him lose the possibility of becoming a national hero, but also made him lose his reputation as a villain and traitor. In the Republic of China 10, 52-year-old Yang initiated the compilation of Yang's genealogy in Yancheng during his tenure as brigade commander in Anhui, and served as the general manager of the compilation. He printed his genealogy in Lide Xinzhai, Hefei, which was published in January of the 12th year of the Republic of China (1923). Ten years later, in the twenty-second year of the Republic of China (1933), Yang, who had left the army for nine years, died of illness at the age of 64.
