Latterly, as Kuomintang forces were defeated and retreated to Taiwan, Master Yang, a Warlord from Qimen with outstanding military achievements, had secretly been granted the rank of Major General by the Kuomintang. At that time, Chiang Kai-shek had sent someone to escort him to Taiwan, but for reasons unknown, he opted to continue remaining in Myanmar.

Many aspiring individuals joined the Qing Gang and Hung Men at that time, including many Kuomintang generals who were former members of the Qing Gang.
