There are 4000 words ahead
In China, where guns are strictly banned, it is unimaginable for a Chinese citizen to have a gun at home, and if a citizen has two guns at home, it is definitely a sensational case.
However, in Shandong, there is such a 96-year-old man, there is a gun at home, more than one, the old man has two Mauser guns, in his hometown is an open secret, for this old man to have a gun, the residents there are not only panicked, frightened, but take it for granted, why is this? What kind of story is behind this old man named Teng Xiyuan?
It all started with that era of gunpowder.
Teng Xiyuan was not an ordinary person when he was young, he was a well-known anti-Japanese hero. These two guns were given to him by the two commanders themselves, and he was rewarded with two first-class meritorious services.
Poor childhood
Teng Xiyuan's old hero's family was very poor, his parents died early, and after his two elder brothers joined the army, in order to support his younger brother, he even begged on the streets to make a living, and the seeds of revolution were already planted in his heart at that time.
In 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out, the Japanese devils fired the first shot of a full-scale war of aggression against China, the Japanese invaders were iron hooves, stepping through thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, Tengxiyuan's hometown was also occupied by the enemy, the old hero saw the Japanese army in his hometown as a prestige, mutilating the people, a heroic spirit rose in his chest, he wanted to join the team like his two brothers, fight the Japanese devils, and avenge his compatriots.
In 1938, Teng Xiyuan, who was just 13 years old, joined the anti-Japanese team led by our party and became a young soldier to start his legendary military career.
Fledgling, brave to make a first-class meritorious service
Don't look at this Teng Xiyuan's young age, and due to perennial malnutrition, he looks dark and thin, but his bravery on the battlefield is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
In the spring of 1940, the Japanese devils carried out a brutal sweep of the Shandong region, and a group of Japanese criminals rushed towards Beishanyang Village. Due to the betrayal of the traitors, the two soldiers of the county brigade who were on a mission with Teng Xiyuan were captured by the enemy, and Teng Xiyuan was also in danger, but this young soldier of the Eighth Route Army was not afraid at all, but was calm and calm, relying on himself to live here all the year round, and he was already familiar with the terrain of this place.
It was easy to escape from the house, but it was not easy to escape from the village, because the Japanese and traitors had already blocked the way out of the village, and after Teng Xiyuan joined the other two soldiers of the county brigade, he decided to hide in the village for the time being, waiting for the Japanese army to leave.
Teng Xiyuan hid on the top of the villager's pigsty, and he found a lone Japanese criminal.
In the face of the enemy, Teng Xiyuan did not feel scared at all, and there was only one thought in his heart: since the Japanese have come to the pigsty, then don't waste it, feed the animals with the meat of the animals, just right!
Just do it. Teng Xiyuan jumped down from the top of the pigsty, crushing the strong Japanese devil to his body like a divine soldier descending from heaven.
The other two comrades-in-arms flashed from the flank, held down the Japanese criminal, Teng Xiyuan drew a dagger, and stabbed it into the Japanese criminal's head, and the arrogant Japanese prisoner was killed at that time.
His bravery and composure, which did not match his age, shocked his comrades-in-arms, and the comrades-in-arms were impressed by this little brother.
This dagger of great significance is still lying quietly in the old man's home, proudly telling the world of the glory of the year.
Soon the Japanese organized a second larger-scale sweep, and this time the goal of the Japanese army was very clear, that is, our anti-Japanese base in Luzhong. The menacing Japanese and the Eighth Route Army fought fiercely in the Yangjiaheng area, and Teng Xiyuan's county brigade was also involved in the battle.
The battle did not test each other, and the two sides entered a white heat as soon as they clashed.
The invading Japanese invaders are not only advanced and well-trained, but they also occupy a certain advantage in terms of strength, and the soldiers of our Eighth Route Army dare to fight and fight, and their bravery is abnormal, and the two sides are fighting in the middle of the battle.
At this time, Teng Xiyuan stood up. The old hero took aim at a devil with a plaster flag at a glance, "This is a devil's head!" ”
He decided to shoot the man and the horse first, and capture the thief and the king first, saying that it was too late, and it was fast, and the bullet shot by the old hero flew into the chest of the Japanese prisoner like an eye.
The Japanese army, which had lost its command, instantly fell into chaos and the attack was stalled. But as a well-trained army, the chaos was only momentary, and the Japanese quickly adjusted their formation and continued to attack.
Teng Xi was not afraid of the menacing enemy from afar, and continued to shoot and roll call the Japanese invaders!
However, the Japanese invaders relied on the strength of the crowd, and the ferocity of the firepower still touched it. The brave wins in hand-to-hand combat, and in the face of fierce enemies, only those who are more fierce than them can survive.
Teng Xiyuan thought of the villagers who were killed by the Japanese invaders, and his courage doubled, and he raised his bayonet to fight with the Japanese invaders. But I have to say that the Japanese invaders' bayonet skills are really powerful, Teng Xiyuan didn't pay attention, a bright bayonet was inserted into his armpit, pain, the pain of the heart, like a tide to Teng Xiyuan's mind, but the firm belief to destroy the enemy supported him to continue to fight, he did not fall, but rose up and pulled out the bayonet from his body, in the frightened eyes of the Japanese invaders, as if Xiang Yu possessed the body, fiercely inserted the bayonet into the throat of the Japanese invaders.
A battle came down to the 15-year-old black and thin Teng Xiyuan. He killed 6 Japanese criminals by himself and was awarded the honorary title of first-class meritorious hero.
His deeds reached the ears of Liao Rongbiao, who was the commander of the fourth detachment of the Shandong Column at the time, and he was full of praise, personally met with the old hero, and praised him: "You little black man is really good at fighting devils!" ”
Not only that, but Comrade Commander also gave the old hero a Mauser gun, which is the origin of the first gun in the old hero's family. This gun accompanied the old hero through the war years, and countless Japanese criminals and reactionaries were killed at his gunpoint.
Teng Xiyuan has become a well-known anti-Japanese hero by virtue of his courage, knowledge, courage and strategy.
One man's empty city plan
After the victory of the 8-year Anti-Japanese War, Teng Xiyuan thought that the battles that should be fought had been fought and that he could go home to farm. But Chiang Kai-shek did not think so, and he provoked a civil war. In July 1947, Teng Xiyuan staged a good show of outwitting 200 enemy soldiers by one person.
At that time, Commander Su Yu decided to concentrate 4 columns of our army against the enemy, and the ace troops were reorganized into 11 divisions to encircle and annihilate!
Teng Xiyuan also participated in this campaign. At this time, Teng Xiyuan was already an experienced grassroots commander.
One evening, Teng Xi went to check the outpost and suddenly found 200 well-armed Kuomintang soldiers walking towards the ravine, and at this time the large force of our army was half an hour away from this place.
Don't let these enemies go! "But by his side, there is only one soldier in charge of vigilance, and the ** on the two of them adds up to a gun each of the long and a short, plus three grenades.
But as an extremely experienced commander and fighter, he always kept a cool head, and after analyzing the enemy's situation, he immediately decided to play Zhuge Liang in person, sing an empty city plan, and drag the enemy army.
When the enemy sneaked up the valley, Teng Xiyuan threw down a grenade, shrapnel flew everywhere, and the soldiers thought they had been ambushed and lay down.
Teng Xiyuan took advantage of the situation and shouted: "Surrender your guns and don't kill, you have been surrounded, surrender quickly, the People's Liberation Army will treat prisoners preferentially!" As he spoke, he shot into the air.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the Kuomintang army had no lighting equipment, and they really thought that they had been ambushed by the People's Liberation Army, and they did not dare to move for a while.
However, after a long time, there was still no movement on the hillside, and the expected PLA did not appear, and at this time there was a commotion among the enemy, who were going to retreat and try to escape.
At this moment, the PLA brigade surrounded the ravine like a divine soldier descending from the sky and launched a fierce battle with the enemy.
It turned out that when Tengxi was far away from the empty city, the main force of our army heard the sound of firefighting here, and immediately ran to support, and finally these 200 enemy troops were surrounded by our army! Teng Xiyuan relied on his witty performance and won the first-class merit again!
At the post-war celebration meeting, Commander Su Yu specially took his hand and talked to him, affectionately calling him a lonely hero.
A generation of gods of war also wore a Mauser pistol for this lonely hero, this honor really made many PLA soldiers covetous, this box gun is a very scarce treasure in our army, the old hero is like a treasure, this is the origin of the second gun in the old hero's home.
Demolition heroes on the battlefields of Korea
Teng Xiyuan participated in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and participated in the War of Liberation, with the founding of New China, Teng Xiyuan originally thought that the battle should be over, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, the Korean War broke out in 1950, with the United ** landing in Incheon, the Korean People's Army fell into great passivity. U.S. bombers even crossed the Yalu River and bombed our border cities.
Under the call of ***, hundreds of thousands of volunteers crossed the Yalu River with high spirits, resisted US aggression and aided Korea, defended the homeland and the country, and the army where the old heroes were located was also one of the participating troops.
The enemy of the old hero on the Korean battlefield was no longer the ferocious Japanese, nor Chiang's army, but the army of the United States, the world's number one power.
In 1953, on the eve of the imminent armistice between the two sides, the US military still made frequent moves, trying to use military victories to strive for more interests at the negotiating table.
They took the initiative to launch an attack on our troops in the Mapingli area near the 38th parallel.
In the face of the enemy's attack, our army responded calmly, using large-scale roundabout interspersed tactics to drag down the enemy's car wheels with iron feet.
During one operation, Teng Xiyuan's unit was blocked by a U.S. tank.
If you don't pass through here quickly, you won't be able to reach the designated combat area on time. This tank had to be cleared.
But the heaviest firepower of the troops interspersed here turned out to be the explosive pack, but the lethality of the thrown explosive pack was almost 0 for the tank. In order to defeat the tank, a soldier must rush to the tank with the explosives bag, hang the explosive bag on the tank, and face the fire of the American army and the machine gun fire on the tank, this is gone!
But the heroic volunteer soldiers are never afraid of life and death, and several soldiers are vying to blow up tanks, this is not the time to talk about military democracy, Teng Xiyuan picked up the explosives bag and rushed forward!
Teng Xiyuan found that there was a ditch on the side of the tank to hide, so that he could hide from the enemy!
However, when he came to this place and took a closer look at the enemy's tank, he found that the enemy's tank had a turret, and he could see the situation here through a telescope.
This time I may not be able to go back! But Tensi, far from being afraid, did not flinch, but grabbed the explosive bag and jumped up and rushed towards the enemy tank.
It may be that he moved too quickly, or maybe the enemy was too light on the enemy, and he did not expect that anyone would dare to rush out from under the nose of the tank, so the explosive bag was hung on the enemy's tank, and after a few seconds, the enemy's tank turned into a pile of scrap metal, and the blocked road was cleared out of a passage, and the volunteer soldiers quickly passed here.
Teng Xiyuan became a famous demolition hero in the Volunteer Army with this exploit, which ended his legendary military career!
Back to the ordinary
After more than ten years of long and brilliant military career, in 1953, the old hero finally took off his beloved military uniform, disarmed and returned to the field, and the battle that should be fought was finally over.
As a combat hero, the old man never deliberately mentioned his heroic deeds on the battlefield in his hometown, and whenever a junior mentioned it, he always said how heroic his comrades were, and almost ignored his great achievements.
Whenever in the dead of night, the old man will always quietly take out his good companion who has accompanied him for more than 10 years, two Mauser guns presented by the commander, and see them as if he saw his comrades-in-arms back then, as if at that moment time went backwards and came to the era of gunsmoke, as if the white-haired Teng Xiyuan had become a majestic hero on the battlefield again.
The villagers naturally knew that the old hero had two guns in his hands, but they were not surprised by this!
After all, the old man is a veteran, and as a veteran of the Eighth Route Army, the People's Liberation Army, and the Volunteer Army, it is enough to ensure that the old man's muzzle will never be aimed at the people.
After the release of the "Measures for the Administration of Firearms", ** relevant departments also came to the door, and the old man showed the gun license issued to him by Unit 6206 of the People's Liberation Army, indicating that the old man was legally in possession of firearms.
They did not take away the guns, saluted the old hero, and cared for the elderly, such old heroes are living history, high-quality idols of young people, and they have a spirit in them, this kind of Chinese spirit that is not afraid of sacrifice and perseverance
Such an old hero is really a treasure, and two Mauser pistols of great significance are the most suitable in the hands of the old hero, because this is their best home!
Once again, I wish our old heroes a long and healthy life and will be able to see the day when the motherland will be completely reunified.
