What is history: it is the echo of the past to the future, the reflection of the future on the past. - Hugo
Today I introduce a Japanese soldier whose life experience is simply a movie. The soldier was named Onoda Hiroshi, when the Japanese soldier was ordered to land on a small island in the Philippines, and when the Japanese trend was gone in 1944, Ono received the last notice to fight guerrilla warfare in the forest of the island, and suicide was not allowed to escape, let alone surrender, and only his commander could cancel the operation. Because of this order, Ono stayed for 30 years.
After the surrender of the Japanese in 1945, the U.S. military sent people to the forest to find the remaining Japanese soldiers and persuade them to surrender, but at first they did not believe it at all, insisting that this was the plan of the U.S. army, and the U.S. army could not persuade it, so they sent Japanese soldiers to persuade them, but they still only waited for the commander's order. Since then, these soldiers have been hiding in the forest, watching and stealing food from the villagers when they are hungry, and after being discovered by the villagers, the local police have a gun battle with them, and finally only Ono and Jinqi are left.
Time to 1972, Ono and Kinchi tossed and turned, two people who had been wandering in the forest for a long time were stealing corn once, and were found by hungry villagers in another village, the villagers found that there were two Japanese soldiers in the forest, this time the local police dispatched a lot of police, in this capture, Kinchi was killed, but Ono fled, when the police in many places in the forest put the news and newspapers of Kinchi's death, trying to force Ono to surrender, but Ono was not moved at all.
What's even funnier is that Ono's father also came to the forest to try to persuade Ono to surrender, but to no avail. Ono said that he only obeyed the orders of his superiors, and finally there was no way to find Ono's commander after 30 years, wrote a request, asking Ono to surrender, at this time 52-year-old Ono sorted out his rifle uniform, and said to the police: I am Lieutenant Onoda Hiroro, I surrender on the orders of my superiors.
At that time, the president of the Philippines also received him, Ono believed the fact that Japan had surrendered, and cried bitterly on the spot, and the people of the Philippines demanded that he be punished, because they knew that 130 police officers were sacrificed to arrest him, but at the request of Japan, Ono was taken back to Japan. Until his death in 2014.
This also counts the last Japanese soldier to surrender.
