The history inn previously introduced the story of the founding general Song Renqian returning to his hometown, because there were too many villagers who came to see him, and they had to invite guests every day, and Song Renqian had no money in a few days, so he had to "slip away".
In fact, there are many stories of Song Ren's poor return to his hometown, and the following are a few more, all of which are wonderful.
After Song Renqian joined the Red Army that year, once the Red Army fought with the enemy army at Jinggangshan, and the result was unfavorable, and Song Renqian also separated from the large troops.
Song Renqian could not find the troops for a while, and thought that he had been away from home for several years, so it was better to go home to see first, and then find the troops later.
However, Song Renqian didn't have a penny on him, so how could he go home? On this day, Song Renqian was worried about how to fill his stomach, suddenly met an artist who ran a snake in the rivers and lakes, performed for a while, and made a lot of money, Song Renqian looked at it, this job is very good, and it doesn't take much capital, he can do it himself, so he wants to worship this snake-tricking artist as a teacher and earn food.
The snake-tricking artist saw that he was very clever, so he accepted him as an apprentice, and Song Renqian's understanding was very high, and he soon learned the whole snake trick and bid farewell to the master. Then, Song Renqian played with snakes by setting up stalls along the way, earning money while walking.
Once, when Song Renqian encountered a vigilante group interrogation, the leader looked him up and down and said, "How do I see you like the Red Army?" ”
Song Ren was not in a hurry, took out a snake from his pocket, shook it at the leader, and said, "Have you ever seen the Red Army play with snakes?" The leader took a few steps back in fright, and quickly let Song Ren pass.
After Song Renqiang finally returned to his hometown in Liuyang, Hunan, he released this life-saving snake into the mountains and never ate snake meat again.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Song Renqian once returned to Liuyang to visit his relatives because he had an official business to pass through Hunan, but something happened that made Song Renqian very angry.
On that day, Song Renqian came to the township alone and wanted to know about the situation in the township, but the clerk said that the township chief was holding a meeting and asked Song Renqian to wait for a while. Song Ren was not easy to disturb, so he sat outside and waited, waiting for more than half an hour, and the township mayor had not finished the meeting.
Song Renqiang walked over, leaned over the window to take a look, the gas did not come to a place, it turned out that there was no meeting in the house at all, it was a few township cadres playing cards and chatting!
Song Renqiang was furious and kicked open the door, the township chief knew Song Renqian, frightened, and quickly apologized, the clerk was even more frightened and almost fell to his knees, trembling and saying: "I didn't know that you were Secretary Song, I didn't know Taishan!" ”
Song Ren's poor iron blue face said, "I am not Tarzan! The real Tarzan is the masses of the people! I look like a cadre, you dare to fool me like this, you can imagine what you look like to ordinary people! ”
A few days later, all the cadres in this township were rectified, and the atmosphere was also new, and the common people all said that Song Renqian had done a great thing for his hometown!
Song Renqian has a special car, but he has strict requirements for his children, saying: "This car is used by the state for me to work, you have no right to sit, even if you are tired of walking, don't want to take the car!" ”
But after Song Renqiang returned to his hometown, he let the children in his hometown come to take the car and let the driver take the children for a ride. The secretary did not understand, Song Renqiang said: "Children in the countryside rarely see cars, let them sit once to see the world, and then study seriously and serve the country." The children of cadres see cars every day, and if they don't care about stricter care, they will easily become the children of the Eight Flags. ”
On January 8, 2005, General Song Renqiao died of illness at the age of 96. When this news reached his hometown, many people in his hometown put incense cases on him and paid tribute to him in the air.
