Imperial Marshal Count Thạch Hung Sõn Chiến (12 March 1892 – 30 June 1945) was a Quenminese general officer in the Imperial Quenminese Army and member of the Thạch Hung noble family. In his military career, he quelled the 1928 Kaung Ko Uprising in Bethausia when he was a colonel, and while serving in the Second Europan War, he commanded the Western Division of the North Asianna Expeditionary Front as an Imperial Marshal, earning his recognition. He died by suicide on 30 June 1945 during the Battle of Kontin.
Chiến was known to his colleagues and the Allies to exhibit an aggressive style of warfare, often committing full-frontal assaults and Muôn năm Charges whenever the opportunities present itself. Coupled with his determined, prideful and stubborn demeanor, he garnered the nickname Tiger Chien (Hổ Chiến). Although a source of his resolve, it also became a source of his weakness, resulting in tensions with his professional relationships and numerous casualties.
Early Life
He studied at the Kiều Thạc Nhu Institute of Military Studies, where he graduated as a colonel, thanks to his family's influence.
