6 armed Japanese soldiers came to a farmer's house, the Japanese soldier: Can we have a meal?
The 13-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression left a huge poison on millions of square kilometers of Shenzhou and also brought great trauma to the entire Chinese nation. The Japanese invaders of that period were deeply influenced by the militarist trend of thought, and relying on the so-called spirit of Bushido, they killed, burned, and plundered on the battlefields of China, and did all kinds of evil, which was deeply repugnant.
To say that history must not only have national feelings, but also uphold an objective and fair view of historical facts to view the events and figures of war history. There is no doubt that most of the Japanese army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was inhumane and had done bad things on Chinese soil to a greater or lesser extent. However, there are also a very small number of alternative Japanese troops who have found out in conscience, so that they have turned against each other.
In 1944, the Japanese army stationed in Nanjing had an incident in which low-level soldiers revolted and "surrendered to the enemy", which was extremely rare in the history of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression for more than ten years. The thing is, a Japanese soldier named Takada Shochi was captured by the New Fourth Army during a battle in Zhejiang and was imprisoned in a prisoner-of-war camp for more than three years.
This Japanese prisoner originally thought that the New Fourth Army would not spare him, but he did not expect that our army was kind and kind to him, eating and drinking better than the soldiers of the New Fourth Army, and smoking. After several years of preferential treatment as a prisoner of war, Takada regained his understanding of the New Fourth Army and reflected deeply on the war waged by Japan.
In the summer of 1944, the New Fourth Army released Takada, and he could not find his troops for a while, so he went to Nanjing, where the Japanese army was heavily guarded. There, he befriended a group of low-level Japanese soldiers who often went to the tavern to drink, and met Yasuo Fukushima, a second lieutenant officer.
Subsequently, Takada told Fukushima about the fact that he was a prisoner of war released by the New Fourth Army, and claimed that the New Fourth Army treated prisoners of war with kindness, and also built tombstones and made epitaphs for the Japanese troops who died in battle, and many captured Japanese troops also joined the New Fourth Army.
In fact, at that time, the low-level officers and soldiers who came to the Chinese battlefield like Fukushima had not returned to the motherland for many years, and the feelings of homesickness and missing their relatives were always haunting their hearts, and at this time, the Japanese army was not only deeply trapped in the quagmire of war in the Asia-Pacific region, but also constantly struggled to the death, there was no end in sight, and the war-weary mood was high.
Coupled with this by Takada, Fukushima had the idea of surrendering, and conspired with Takada to take a batch of weapons to defect to the New Fourth Army. Subsequently, Fukushima called his 5 hearts and stole 6 detachment pistols, 300 rifle bullets, 1 tube of luminous stone, 2 38-type horse riding guns, and 470,000 yuan of golden tickets.
One night, they pretended to be a patrol, deceived the sentries at the Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing, and sneaked out to escape with Takada, who had come to meet them. Takada took Fukushima and his party toward the Maoshan area southeast of the city, where the New Fourth Army was fighting guerrillas.
The Japanese troops stationed in Nanjing soon discovered the rebellion of Fukushima and their party, and immediately sent heavy troops to search the nearby mountains to encircle and suppress, plus Takada did not know much about the road, and was soon chased by the Japanese detachment. The two sides began to fire, and Fukushima and his party repelled the pursuing soldiers and fled to a farmer's house at the bottom of the mountain at night.
The farmer was awakened by a violent knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw that the six Japanese soldiers with guns in front of them were so frightened that they almost fainted. Takada hurriedly said in a lame Chinese, "We are hungry, can we have a meal?" ”
Subsequently, 6 wretched Japanese deserters devoured the fire in the farmer's house to eat a full meal. Unfortunately, at noon the next day, hundreds of Japanese troops found it and surrounded them. At this time, Fukushima and his party were making lunch.
After being captured, deserters such as Fukushima and Takada were sentenced to execution by firing squad, and 12 Other Japanese soldiers who assisted them in their escape were arrested and sentenced to five years. In fact, the following year, after Japan's defeat, they were released from Nanjing Prison and returned to China!
