爷爷家就此衰败，人跑的跑散的散。爷爷捡回一条命，带着家小隐姓埋名跑到西安，开药铺为生。人到了西安，听说土匪还时不时在临潼找他。

　　剿匪不成，连累家人，这段经历刺激了爷爷。他觉悟“生逢乱世，家里没有拿枪的不行”，把三个儿子都送到黄埔军校。大伯是黄埔九期，二伯是黄埔十五期。张艺谋的父亲排行老三。

　　黄埔毕业之后都要带兵打仗，奶奶想留一个在身边，于是张艺谋的父亲做了国民党军队的后勤军需官。国民党溃退台湾之后，父亲和奶奶留了下来，根据解放初期的肃反政策，军需、军医等技术人员可以留用。正是奶奶的坚持、父亲的孝顺，保住了家，也才有了张艺谋。

　　二伯从黄埔毕业后，和一批同学一起被蒋介石派到胡宗南部。胡宗南对他们很忌惮，弄了个军官团，把这帮人养起来，不给带兵。这群人报国无门，成天闲得发疯，很痛苦。延安缺少军事干部，听说了之后，派人过来策反。胡宗南部队流传两句话：老蒋不要老毛要，老胡不用老朱用。策反到二伯的头上，他很动心，打算和几个要好的朋友一起投奔延安。他只是跟母亲说，要和一个朋友一起出差。没想到，从此一别，就再也没有见过他。父亲千方百计在军队内部动用各种关系打听。这件事怎么也打听不出来，很神秘。有些人肯定了解发生过什么，就是不说。
