Firearms are contraband in our present era, except for public officials in the state department who can be qualified to be equipped, others should not be eligible to hold, if guns flow into the hands of criminals, it will cause social unrest, but also endanger people's lives and property safety. In 1966, the state promulgated the Gun Control Law, which explicitly prohibited ordinary people from carrying guns, but there was such a person, who was specially treated by the state and was specifically licensed to hold two pistols, so how did this person qualify for the state charter to bear a gun? What is his story?
Born in 1925 in laiwu, Shandong Province, Tengxiyuan was born in an era of war, when most of the people were displaced by the war and had to beg for food for a living. When he was a teenager, he had to work for the family, bear the hard work, and let the young Teng Xiyuan train a strong iron bone and strong physical fitness over the years. Because he witnessed what foreign invaders did to our country since childhood, TengXiyuan hated them to the bone, and when he was a teenager, he secretly passed on useful information to the local anti-war team, and was also deeply trusted by the local team, plus his two brothers joined the communist team very early.
Teng Xiyuan finally officially enlisted in the army at the age of 13, and his performance in the team can be described as quite brave, in 1940 he also won the title of "Tenghezi" in the battle, and he was very brave in the fight with the Japanese army, and also made a first-class merit, so the commander of the Shandong Column rewarded him with the first pistol in his life, which was also the one he cherished the most.
Because of his outstanding performance in the team many times, and then repeatedly received rewards, in the Liberation War, Teng Xiyuan served as an artillery company commander of the Huaye Army, mainly responsible for observing the enemy army and passing on intelligence. Once, when Teng Xiyuan was standing guard on the hillside, he suddenly found that more than 200 Kuomintang soldiers were quietly advancing towards their ranks in the distance, and in the distance, the other side was fully equipped, and at this time, only the two of them could resist them.
At this time, the situation was critical, and it was necessary to come up with a way, just when the enemy was about to approach the team, Teng Xiyuan suddenly calculated from his heart and threw the only three grenades around them into the direction of the enemy army, the enemy did not think of it, so he confused himself in the artillery fire. At this time, Teng Xiyuan shouted slogans at the other side, creating the illusion that the troops were full of troops, making the other side confused, and buying a lot of time for the arrival of reinforcements from the rear. The Kuomintang did not think of this wave of operations, so they immediately laid an ambush in place, did not dare to make any more rash moves, and by the time they reacted, our reinforcements had arrived smoothly, fought fiercely with them, and won the final victory by overwhelming superiority.
This battle gave everyone encouragement and confidence, at the celebration meeting held in the team, Teng Xiyuan was once again awarded the honor of first-class merit, this time the reward is still a pistol, but the significance is extraordinary, because the pistol was given by Comrade Su Yu himself, Su Yu praised the performance and wit of this hero, and also called him "Lone Hero", which gave him great recognition. In this way, Teng Xiyuan got the two most cherished and meaningful pistols in his life. With his own bravery and wit, Teng Xiyuan finally waited for the liberation of the country and the hard-won day of the founding of New China.
Since then, Tengxiyuan is still on the road to defend the country, relying on strong willpower to embark on the road of the Korean War, in a battle, the United States and South Korean troops launched a fierce attack on us with tanks, Tengxiyuan disregarded the danger, with explosives packs came to the tank's route of travel, the soldiers saw such a scene, launched an offensive more and more fiercely, the soldiers are also covering Tengxiyuan. In the midst of the artillery fire, Teng Xiyuan successfully came to a dark pit on the side of the road, put down the explosive package and returned immediately, the tank was scrapped and could not move forward, Teng Xiyuan's behavior was also remembered by everyone, and he was also praised as an explosion hero and became an example for the soldiers.
In 1996, government workers searched for guns door to door, and guns were also found in the old man's home, Teng Xiyuan took out relevant legal documents, and the staff inquired about it and learned that the guns were personally rewarded by General Su Yu. Today, Tengxiyuan is 96 years old and has established himself in his lifetime
First class work twice, third class work three times
He has been injured several times, went back and forth several times in the ghost gate, and is also one of the few people in The country who can legally possess a gun. The old man's life can be described as ups and downs, and the experience is shocking, but without their sacrifices and risks, I think our happy life today would not be so smooth.
