Era background:
In the spring of 1928, the National Revolutionary Army’s Northern Expedition had entered the Hebei region. Feng’s army withdrew northward, but the bandits in eastern Hebei were very Many, extremely raging. In this case, the National Revolutionary Army sent Sun Dianying's troops to suppress. On the way, Sun Dianying repeatedly saw that a large amount of wood from the demolished Dongling Palace was stolen and transported, and he became unjust.
Then, he learned that Ma Futian was stationed in Malanyu to prepare for excavation of the tomb. He thought it was a God-given opportunity and immediately ordered Tan Wenjiang, commander of the Eighth Division, to lead his troops there overnight and drive away Ma Futian. At the same time, in order to cover people's eyes and ears, they posted notices everywhere, claiming that the troops would conduct military exercises and began planned tomb robbing operations.
Sun Dianying held an emergency meeting at the military headquarters and declared that the collapse of the imperial mausoleum was also a revolution. It was a "just" act to inherit Mr. Sun Yat-sen's legacy and contribute to the revolution. Feng Yangtian announced the action plan. At this point, a rare treasure theft incident began. The tomb robbers headed by Sun Dianying spent 7 days and 7 nights to rob the Dongling Underground Palace in the Qing Royal Cemetery.
