Li Manlin, the "black boss" in Shanxi, committed all kinds of evil. What happened next?

Who is Li Manlin? Li Manlin, nicknamed Sanmahu, has dominated the Taiyuan underworld for more than 10 years. During this period, he colluded with officials, burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil. He is known as the No. 1 cancer in Shanxi and ranks fifth in the ranking of China's underworld bosses. He was arrested and brought to justice in 2001. In 2004, he was sentenced to death, fined 8 million yuan, and deprived of political rights for life. On December 20, 2005, he was shot.

So, how did he get to where he is today? Let's take a look at Li Manlin's record of the destruction of the underworld group.

Li Manlin was born in 1968 in a middle-class family in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province. His father was a small cadre in a public company. He has been competitive since he was a child. In December 1986, Li Manlin, who was 18 years old, had a dispute with Wang Qiang in a dance hall. Li Manlin and his accomplices hacked Wang Qiang to death with an axe, and Wang's friend Liu Jinping was injured.

In May 1988, the Taiyuan Intermediate People's Court sentenced Li Manlin to two years in prison for hooliganism.

After being released from prison in 1990, Li Manlin felt that he was full-fledged and no longer wanted to be a pawn for others. He began to look for people to organize his own underworld team. Liu Fuping (nicknamed "Yang Hui"), Ren Zhongyi (nicknamed "Five Dogs"), Wu Tiehu and other five or six people became his original troops. Li Manlin was very ambitious and got a few guns from the beginning.

In 1991, Li Manlin led five people including Fan Genwen and Ren Zhongyi to commit murder in the Kaihua Temple area of ??Taiyuan with knives and guns. The cause of the incident was very simple. When Li Manlin and one of his accomplices were eating in a restaurant, they had a quarrel with Guo Yuequan, and the two refused to give in to each other.

That night, Li gathered five people, including Fan Genwen and Ren Zhongyi, and went to Guo Yue's family with guns, but they failed. Half a month later, Guo Yuequan came to Li Manlin to plead for mercy. Li Manlin did not forgive him. Instead, he ordered Fan Genwen, Ren Zhongyi and others who were waiting here to rush forward.

Fan Genwen took out the musket he carried with him and fired two "bang bang" shots at Guo Yuequan's left and right legs.

Guo collapsed and fell to the ground, blood gushing out. Li Manlin was still upset and signaled Ren Zhongyi and others to chop at Guo Yuequan who fell to the ground. Guo's neck, back, and arms were covered with stab wounds. He fainted on the spot due to excessive blood loss, and later died of excessive bleeding.

Li Manlin became famous. The gangsters in the north and south cities of Taiyuan all know that there is a man named Li Manlin. This man is ruthless and ruthless. He is a terrible wolf that broke out in Taiyuan's rivers and lakes, so the "Three Mahu" got its name from this. Li Manlin was 23 years old that year.

According to folk information, in the early 1990s, there were several groups of underworld figures circulating in Taiyuan, such as the "Big Er Xiao" in the Taigang area, Lin Erwei, and the "Xiao Si Mao".

At that time, Li Manlin's underworld gang had already taken shape. Liu Fuping and Ren Zhongyi were Li's second generals, responsible for extorting debts and violent attacks. The older Wu Tiehu was responsible for serving Li Manlin tea and water, running forward and backward.

Whenever a gambling bureau is opened, Wu Tiehu serves as a liaison, summoning gambling bosses and underworld personnel. In addition, there are "Lai Huangmao" and other minions. However, compared with the previous "big brothers", Li Manlin is not ranked high in Taiyuan.

Li Manlin made himself famous in the underworld through the "Grand View Garden" incident in 1993.

The reason was that Wu Tiehu, Li Manlin’s die-hard subordinate, went to the Huazhou Hotel to gather people for gambling. The group of people in the Huazhou Hotel at that time were gang associates of "Little Four Mao" Ren Aijun. At that time, "Little Si Mao" didn't take Li Manlin seriously at all. Even though he knew it was Li Manlin's, he ordered his men to kidnap Wu Tiehu.

Wu Tiehu was tied to Dongshan Mountain in Taiyuan, and "Little Si Mao" threatened to bury him alive. In the end, Wu Tiehu was beaten and kicked, and he was released after defrauding him of several thousand yuan.

Li Manlin was furious and vowed to destroy the "pier" of "Little Si Mao". At that time, he was still somewhat afraid of "Little Si Mao", after all, they had "strong soldiers and horses".

In February 1993, Li Manlin's confidant "Lai Huangmao" (Zhang Haimo) was injured by the "Little Four Mao" Ren Aijun, Ren Xiaofeng, and Du Dazhong, and the "Grand View Garden" incident was finally lit.

After careful planning, on February 9, 1993, Liu Fuping, who was responsible for the inspection, reported that "Little Simao", Ren Xiaofeng, Du Dazhong and others were found in the "Grand View Garden" bathhouse.

Li Manlin immediately issued an order, and people from all walks of life rushed to the "Grand View Garden" in full force. Ren Zhongyi drove Li Manlin's "Fiat" car, and others took taxis.

When they got there, they rushed into the "Grand View Garden" armed with long and short guns, where they found Du Dazhong and Ren Xiaofeng. In an instant, the "Grand View Garden" was ablaze with flames and loud gunshots. Du Dazhong and Ren Xiaofeng fell in a pool of blood. Du Dazhong died, but Ren Xiaofeng was lucky enough to save his life.

After the "Grand View Garden" incident, the underworld has touted Li Manlin as a god. The main staff and minions around him admired him even more and were sincerely convinced. There was no need to plant a "recruiting flag", Taiyuan City's gangsters, social remnants, including corrupt elements in the political circles, all voted for Li Manlin's banner.

During the period from 1995 to 2000, Li Manlin gathered his accomplices Ren Zhongyi, Liu Fuping and others to repeatedly beat others and damage them in Haoyunlai Hotel, Tianfu Restaurant, Donghai Hotel, Wangfu Abalone Hotel, Xianhe Songcheng and other places. Facilities, the impact is extremely bad.

At the same time, Li Manlin also gathered his accomplices to beat and illegally detain more than ten people including Zhang and Yang in order to demand gambling debts, recover arrears and retaliate against others. At the same time, Li Manlin and others also gathered people to gamble, involving millions of dollars in gambling.

The past few years have also been Li Manlin’s most prosperous years.

On December 11, 2000, a national video and telephone conference on the special campaign against gangs and evil was held in Beijing. This conference marked the official launch of the national crackdown campaign that year.

In December 2001, Li Manlin was criminally detained on suspicion of organizing and leading a gangland organization and was arrested in the same month. On January 17, 2004, the Taiyuan Intermediate People's Court found Li Manlin guilty of seven counts of organizing and leading a gangland organization, intentional injury, provocation, illegal detention, extortion, illegal possession of firearms, and gambling.

On December 20, 2005, Li Manlin was shot.
