Our hero in this classification was Wu Pei-fu, who fought it out with Chang Tso-lin in a battle near Peking in the 1920s. The outcome was a virtual Mexican standoff, but Chang retreated into Manchuria where he was killed as the Japanese blew up his railroad train TNT's father, an eye doctor, once repaired the eyes of a Manchurian, puppet emperor Pu Yi, with nary a farthing for the former's services.
