After Japan surrendered, a Japanese soldier hid in the Philippines and refused to surrender, insisting on fighting for 29 years.

1August 945 15, the Japanese emperor finally announced Japan's surrender. Subsequently, among the Japanese soldiers who participated in the war at that time, some were sent back to Japan and some became prisoners of war. Of course, some people choose not to surrender, and finally they are shot or "wandering in the jungle" for decades. ...

Xiao Ye Tian Honglang is such a soldier. He took part in the Second World War. After the Japanese emperor announced Japan's surrender, he should have surrendered immediately and abandoned armed confrontation like other Japanese soldiers. But in the end, he not only refused to surrender for various reasons, but also insisted on fighting for more than 20 years.

From refusing to surrender to questioning the truth, to never surrendering and fighting, this is a portrayal of Onota's 29-year life in the jungle. Next, let's take a look at what this Japanese soldier experienced after Japan surrendered, why he refused to surrender, and why he persisted in fighting for 29 years.

Xiao Ye Tian Bolang's persistence for 29 years may be due to the support of Japanese militarism or his own "obsession". But no one can imagine that a Japanese soldier during World War II can persist in fighting for 29 years, and all this began with the news of Japan's surrender.

At that time, when the news of Japanese surrender reached the location of Xiao Ye Tian Hong Lang, he and several other Japanese soldiers saw the leaflets sent by Americans, but then they heard gunshots suddenly approaching and far away, so they agreed that it was false news.

Because the news of Japan's surrender was false, some people thought that the gunfire in the distance was caused by the pursuit of the "enemy." So, they immediately returned to the jungle.

After that, Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang and his party began to take advantage of the unique landform of the jungle to play a long game with the local police and soldiers in the Philippines, and even the locals who are familiar with the route can't catch them because they change their positions every few days.

Later, after finding out the fighting habits of the Philippine search team, Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang and his party were able to avoid the search team's tracking freely, but food became another problem. So in order to supplement their physical strength, they often go outside the jungle to steal food from local residents, and they have never been caught by local people.

Later, for self-encouragement, Xiao Ye Tian Honglang wrote the slogan "Carry the war to the end" in his residence, and organized some collective activities for his teammates to keep the determination and confidence to fight to the end as much as possible, so as to prepare for the long-term jungle battle.

Then, in order to get a few people out of the jungle, the local military took real-time newspapers and letters from relatives and friends and distributed them in large quantities, hoping to move them out of the jungle by themselves.

However, Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang and his party still agreed that this was a trick of the other party to cheat them out of the jungle, so he thought that these were all false. He didn't believe the contents of the leaflet and didn't want to leave the jungle.

After the news of Japan's surrender came out, Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang and his party always doubted the truth of the news of Japan's surrender and tried their best to refuse to surrender.

Until 1950, leaflets of Japanese surrender were "delivered" into the jungle, and finally a Japanese soldier surrendered, but it was not Xiao Ye Tian Honglang.

In the next few years, although Hiroro Onoda and several other teammates often saw letters from relatives in the jungle, they always believed that these were all scams, so they strengthened their belief of never surrendering.

Until 1953, one of Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang's teammates died, but he still chose to fight, and new leaflets were constantly distributed in the jungle. At the same time, the local search team also found broadcasting equipment and shouted at Onoda Kuanlang and another teammate to inform them that the Japanese army had surrendered again.

Later, Xiao Ye Tian Kuanlang's brothers personally went to the scene to persuade him, but they still didn't let him shake the belief of fighting to the end and never surrendering. He firmly believed that Japan could not surrender, so he resolutely refused to surrender, did not want to be a Japanese deserter, and did not want to disappoint the country and his family.

Moreover, he firmly believes that Japan will become the ruler of this land, and thinks that people outside the jungle yell at him that Japan has surrendered, which is a disrespect for him and Japan.

Based on the belief that Japan will never surrender, Xiao Ye Tamborang stayed in the Philippine jungle for 29 years until a Japanese explorer appeared. During this period, he also experienced many changes and ideological struggles.

After ideological struggle: According to Xiao Ye Tian Bolang's own description, he actually thinks that his life in the jungle has always been hard and helpless.

Because he can't trust the information on the leaflets, the propaganda of the military, and he can't get the news directly from the outside world, he often falls into self-doubt, but he is afraid of getting help from the local military.

Death of the last teammate:19721kloc-0/0. In October, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang and his teammates planted mines in residential areas near the jungle, but they were quickly discovered by local residents and reported directly.

In view of the critical situation, the police who received the news directly shot and killed Hiroro Onoda and his teammates. Because his teammate was unfortunately shot and died on the spot, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang lost his last teammate and began to fight alone in the jungle.

Encounter Japanese Explorer: Two years after the death of his teammate, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang unexpectedly met Japanese explorer Suzuki in the jungle. At this point, he finally believed that Japan had surrendered as early as 1949, and the war had already ended.

When Suzuki advised Xiao Ye's Tian Bolang to walk out of the jungle, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang said that he was a soldier and had to obey the orders of his superiors. Therefore, Yukio Suzuki assured him that he would bring the orders from his superiors.

After 29 years of fighting, Suzuki finally found the superior leader of Xiao Ye's Tian Bolang after returning to Japan, and informed Xiao Ye's Tian Bolang in March 1974 that his superior personally came to the Philippines with a copy of the surrender letter of that year and would wait for him to make an appointment at the designated place.

Later, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang finally came to the designated place, met his superiors, received a surrender order, and expressed his intention to surrender to the local military. At this point, Xiao Ye Tian Bolang finally ended 29 years of jungle life and fighting.

Although Xiao Ye Tian Honglang has experienced many hardships during his 29 years in the jungle, it is not easy to stick to the belief of never surrendering. However, if he can get out of the jungle and communicate seriously with the local military in these 29 years, he will not be trapped in the jungle for 29 years and lose one teammate after another.

Perhaps in the 29-year battle of Tian Honglang in Xiao Ye, what trapped him in the jungle was not the accomplishment of soldiers or patriotic feelings, but just because he couldn't believe it and didn't want to face the fact of Japanese defeat.
