1978 zhuanghe city cypress troops lost their guns and Kong Xiangjun shot and killed people. What happened?

My home is not far from cypress. When I was a child, I heard adults say that Kong Xiangjun was alone at home because his parents died. Life was hard at that time, and there was no food at home during the Spring Festival. He asked his relatives and neighbors for food, but he didn't give it. On New Year's Eve, he ate fried corn kernels to fill his stomach. In desperation, he stole the gun from the army and shot and killed many people. At that time, it was the first day of the first month, and people regarded gunshots as firecrackers.
