His name may be unfamiliar to you, but the major events he witnessed and the people he met are surely familiar to you.

He accompanied Jiang Jieshi in two eastern expeditions against Chen Jiongming, once saving Jiang's life while bare-chested amidst a rain of bullets;
In the Northern Expedition of 1926, he was invincible, capturing Tingsi Bridge and fighting fiercely at Hesheng Bridge, making the Beiyang warlord faction tremble in fear.
Due to the "misunderstanding" in textbooks, many people only know that Ye Ting's Independent Brigade was hailed as the "Iron Army," unaware that Ye Ting's Independent Brigade was merely his subordinate. The true "Iron Army" of the Northern Expedition should be the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and the true "Iron Army" general is this Zhang Fagui, who served as the commander of the 12th Division of the Fourth Army and the commander of the Fourth Army.
The author of this book records in vivid detail the life experiences of this "Iron Army" commander and describes the glorious deeds of this Anti-Japanese war hero!
