In the ranks of the Eighth Route Army, there was a soldier who was only one meter and two meters tall, and although he was short, he was a well-deserved "giant". With his height advantage and shooting skills, he made great achievements, and he became a legend of our army. Well, this "giant" who is only one meter and two meters tall, he joined the Eighth Route Army at the age of 13 and assassinated many Japanese officers! Who is he?
The Eighth Route Army soldier, named Li Anfu, was born in 1925 in Dezhou, Shandong. Due to the dwarfism, Li Anfu grew very slowly, and his height was finally only fixed at one meter and two. However, despite his short stature, Li Anfu's mind is very flexible, and his academic performance has been very good since childhood. At the age of 13, he approached the Eighth Route Army and wanted to join the army, but because of his stature, he was refused. However, Li Anfu was not discouraged by this, but on the contrary, he volunteered himself, and finally succeeded in convincing the leaders of the Eighth Route Army with his rich knowledge, and allowed him to enter the army.
After entering the army, Li Anfu quickly stood out with his excellent marksmanship, and because of his height, he was also transferred to the enemy rear martial arts team and began to perform very important assassination missions. During one mission, Li Wasfu was ordered to assassinate the Japanese military instructor Kawashima Tanigawa, and this mission became the most unforgettable experience of his life. Kawashima Tanigawa was a fanatical militarist in the Japanese army, who trained his soldiers extremely cruelly, and often captured civilians as live targets for Japanese soldiers to train. It is precisely because of this that the local people hate him to the bone, and the armed workers' team also regards it as a thorn in the eye, and it is bound to get rid of it quickly.
After receiving the task, Li Anfu came to the necessary path for Kawashima Tanigawa to lead the training of the troops, and with the advantage of his short stature, he disguised himself as a child, so no one was alert to him. After seeing Kawashima Tanigawa, Li Anfu walked toward him, during which he also bowed to him, making Kawashima even more unguarded. However, after the two rubbed shoulders for a few steps, Li Anfu immediately fired several shots at him in the back, and Kawashima Tanigawa was also killed on the spot. Moreover, in the process of escaping, Li Anfu took advantage of the chaos to blend into the crowd, and due to the advantage of short stature, he was finally able to successfully escape. It can be said that Li Anfu completely turned his innate disadvantage into his own advantage, thus unexpectedly causing losses to the Japanese army. And this one-meter-two small man can also be called a giant!
