The story of the old man with two guns
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > old man with a double gun</h1>
In Laiwu, Shandong Province, there is a 96-year-old man whose home has always had two guns, and most of the neighbors and neighbors around him know about it. In 1996, in order to protect the safety of the people, our government introduced the Gun Management Regulations, which stipulate that no one else can be equipped with a gun except in special circumstances. Even if you have it in your hand, you must turn it in immediately. Facts have proved that our country's approach is very correct, and the harm of gun proliferation has been fully exposed in some Western countries.
In the process of handing over the guns in that year, the old man's situation was naturally known to the government. When the government workers arrived at the old man's home, they found that the old man had kept two old Mauser military pistols, but they were still very polished, and after inspecting them, the staff did not take the two guns away.
Old Man Teng Xiyuan
Because with these two guns in the collection, there is also a document, which is the gun control instructions issued by the 6206 unit of the People's Liberation Army. The main content is that if you want to carry a gun, you must carry this certificate, you must protect the pistol, do not shoot randomly, and the date of issue is 1982. So who is the old man? Being able to have a legal gun license issued by the military department is obviously not an ordinary person. During the conversation, the old man gradually recounted his experience.

Between 1931 and 1949, the Chinese nation experienced the pain of war. In the 1930s, China was also in chaos, warlords were divided, wars were burning, coupled with the Japanese army harassing the people every three to five, the lives of ordinary people were miserable, not to mention making money to support their families, and ensuring the most basic food and clothing was a luxury for most people. The old man Teng Xiyuan was one of them. Of course, he was still very young at this time, and he was just 6 years old when the Japanese army invaded the northeast of our country.
The Japanese invasion of China
Although he was very young, he did not suffer a lot. Because the country is very chaotic, there are wars everywhere, and he has no production capacity, so he can only beg everywhere to live. The days of begging were hard, but what made him even more angry was the atrocities of the Japanese army. Especially after the outbreak of the all-out war of aggression against China and the occupation of Shandong, the young Teng Xiyuan witnessed the Burning and Looting of the Japanese Army. Hatred burned in his heart, but he was too young for the anti-Japanese armed forces to accept him, for fear that he would suffer.
At this time, Shandong Laiwu also formed a Laidong County Brigade, Teng Xiyuan asked Liu Zizheng, the political commissar of the county brigade, for half a day, and Liu Zizheng promised to accept him, in order to protect him, only let him be a member of the hoeing team, mainly responsible for comparing the work of the rear. The young Teng Xiyuan was not dissatisfied with this, but instead seriously patrolled everywhere every day. But in those days, although it was said that they were working in the rear, the fierce And vicious Japanese Kou also often swept away these guerrilla anti-Japanese forces.
Guerrillas during the War of Resistance
In the spring of 1940, the Japanese army, which had been harassed by the Eighth Route Army, showed its fangs and began to sweep the base areas of the Eighth Route Army, and the Laidong County Brigade was caught off guard by the sudden Japanese army. Fortunately, at this time, most of the fighters had gone out on a mission, and the only ones left were Teng Xiyuan and a few other fighters.
Teng Xiyuan originally lived here, and he was very familiar with the situation of the whole village, and when the enemy rushed in, Teng Xiyuan seized the opportunity to sneak over the wall in the blind spot of the enemy's vision. Of course, he did not flee from the front, but saw that the number of Japanese troops was too large and was busy moving the rescue troops. However, in the process of leaving the village, it was not very peaceful, there were scattered Japanese troops sweeping on the road, Teng Xiyuan hid around, and finally found two fighters who were not caught by the Japanese army.

As they walked outside, they encountered a lone Japanese soldier. At that time, Teng Xiyuan was just 15 years old, but he immediately decided to kill this Japanese army, he only had a dagger less than 20 centimeters on his body at that time, and it was not easy to kill a strong Japanese soldier. But he still took the lead, overturned the Japanese army, and quietly killed the Japanese army with the assistance of his comrades-in-arms.
But that's not the end of it. After this sweep, although the Japanese army temporarily stopped sweeping, it increased the intensity of attacks on the battlefield, and there were often encounters between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army. Although Teng Xiyuan was still young, he was also assigned a gun to fight on the front line. In this battle, Teng Xiyuan stood out.
Japanese forces in combat
Although it was his first time to participate in a frontal war, he immediately understood who to fight first, aimed at a japanese squad leader, and killed him first. The Japanese rushed up with a strange scream, and Teng Xiyuan killed several people in a row, and by the end, the pistol was empty. In the end, he could only engage in white-knife battles with the enemy.
Although Teng Xiyuan was very brave, but there were too many Japanese soldiers, he was still stabbed by a Japanese soldier, he was in pain and fainted in front of his eyes, but still did not fall, but did not know where the strength came from, snatched the bayonet over, and killed the Japanese soldier in front of him. Before he fainted from excessive blood loss, he was still thinking, how many Japanese devils did he kill?
This is also the origin of his first Mauser military pistol. After the war, although he was seriously injured and recuperated for a period of time, at the commendation meeting, he still successfully won the first class merit with the record of killing 6 Japanese devils by 1 person. In addition, he was always able to treat all kinds of emergencies calmly, and the military commanders were impressed.
At the post-war commendation meeting, Liao Rongbiao, the commander of the fourth detachment of the Shandong Column who followed him, praised him greatly and rewarded him with a Mauser pistol. He loved this and kept it on his body, and during the anti-Japanese war, he did not know how many Japanese devils died under this gun.

The old man showed off his gun
In August 1945, Japan finally chose to surrender, teng Xiyuan was very happy about this, he thought he could finally go home to farm, but he never expected that Chiang Kai-shek openly tore up the peace agreement and civil war broke out. Teng Xiyuan, who had just taken off his military uniform, immediately joined the People's Liberation Army and began to fight against the Kuomintang reactionaries.
At this time, Although Teng Xiyuan was only 20 years old, he already had rich combat experience and became an artillery company commander. In order to make the limited artillery contribute the most to the battle against the enemy, he often went to the combat site to conduct secret investigations and select the most favorable terrain. He not only let his subordinates go down, but often went himself.
The young Teng Xiyuan and his comrades-in-arms
One day in July 1947, Teng Xiyuan secretly went to reconnoiter as usual, and suddenly found a 200-man Kuomintang squad marching nearby, only half an hour away from where the main force of our army was stationed. But Teng Xiyuan did not know where they were going, and he was afraid that when he went to call people back, these people had disappeared without a trace, sparing 200 enemies. Between the electric light and flint, he thought of Zhuge Liang's "empty city plan".
So he stood on the hill, and when these people came to the ravine, he threw the only grenade on his body in front of these people, and the Kuomintang officers and soldiers who passed by were startled. At this time, the Kuomintang officers and men were already scared by the Platon Army, so their first reaction was not to fight back, but to flee in fright. Teng Xiyuan took the opportunity to shoot and shouted, "You are already surrounded, do not kill, preferential treatment for prisoners!" ”

A few Nationalist creeps were so frightened that they had begun to put their guns on the ground. However, the leading Kuomintang officer was quite cautious, and he signaled his subordinates to be quiet, wanting to wait and see the situation. Teng Xiyuan waited for a while to see that these Kuomintang officers had never moved, and they were afraid that their "empty city plan" would be discovered. As a result, the main force of our army heard his gunshots and rushed to wipe out these 200 Kuomintang soldiers in less than a few moments.
This "Empty City Plan" was sung very beautifully, and Su Yu, deputy commander of Huaye, personally awarded him a first-class merit and gave him a brand-new box gun, which was the source of Teng Xiyuan's second gun.

But that's not the end of it. When the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out in 1950, Teng Xiyuan resolutely rushed to the front. In one war, the enemy blocked our army's way with tanks. Our army did not have anti-tank equipment at that time, and if the stalemate continued, it would delay the battle plan, and Teng Xiyuan stepped forward and hung it on the tank with an explosive package, and successfully destroyed the tank. This great tank blast won him a first-class success. In Teng Xiyuan's career, he won 3 first-class merits, and each time, he risked his life.
The current old man Teng Xiyuan is 96 years old, but his body is still very healthy, and like a child, he likes to eat small snacks, and when he meets someone coming to the door, the kind old man will first send a handful of candy. The children nearby also know that this old man is a hero who has made great contributions to the construction of new China, and always runs to listen to his stories. While Teng Xiyuan was relieved that these children were still willing to remember history, he also felt bitter: Old comrades-in-arms, they can't come back.

In the old man's life, the most precious thing was the two old Mauser pistols. Now these two pistols, it is difficult to find bullets, but the appearance is still polished, as if it is new, which shows the deep love and care of the old man over the years. It is not so much two guns as it is the old man's patriotic heart. Government workers in 1996 also realized that these two pistols were the most appropriate to follow the elderly.
