Regarding the events of the War of Resistance Against Japan, when we mention Shanxi, I believe that the first reaction of most people is Yan Xishan. But there were also some people who were very famous at that time, and even more famous than Yan Xishan. Today we will talk about Wen Shouquan, who was born in Hongdong County, Shanxi Province.
Wen Shouquan once studied in Japan and returned to Japan. He has always been a teacher, and he has a lot of experience, he can see the problems that China will face in the future, and he decided to do everything for the country.
In 1911, when the Qing government was struggling to the death, many able people and people were doing their own efforts, while the Western countries were looking at the tiger and wanted to take advantage of the fire and robbery. Wen Shouquan, who had received a very advanced education, resolutely threw himself into the revolutionary cause.
At that time, Shanxi also began a revolutionary cause in full swing, of which wen shouquan's performance was the most prominent. At that time, the Inspector of Shanxi was Wei Zuofu and was not afraid of anything, Wen Shouquan first took the Inspector with a knife, and at that time there was an iron-blooded husband regiment in Shanxi, and a task of killing the Inspector was of course entrusted to this organization.
At that time, it was still difficult to enter the gate, and it was even more difficult to assassinate the inspector. Wen Shouquan was very attentive to the assassination of the inspector, and considered the matter very comprehensively, and finally succeeded in killing the inspector. The biggest credit for this matter was Wen Shouquan, so he later became the governor of Shanxi Province and the minister of military affairs of Shanxi.
At that time, the Qing government felt that shanxi was a great threat to itself, so it sent troops to attack here, Wen Shouquan personally led the troops to resist, and finally defeated the Qing army at Niangziguan, and also re-established the Hedong military government.
However, although the Xinhai Revolution was successful later, Yuan Shikai stole the fruits of the Xinhai Revolution, and Wen Shouquan, because he did not like Yuan Shikai very much, left his position at that time and returned to his hometown, planting an acre and a third of land. Although he returned to his hometown, he still did not forget his ideals and still made his contribution to the revolutionary cause.
