As we all know, after Emperor Hirohito of Japan announced his unconditional surrender on August 15th, 1945, Japanese troops all over the world surrendered one after another, and the war ended. However, there is still a wonderful Japanese army in the Philippines, which insisted on guerrilla warfare for nearly 3 years before surrendering in the sen mountain of Lubang Island.

At that time, the U.S. military distributed a large number of leaflets about Japan's defeat, and the Philippines went to the mountains for numerous searches. The Japanese side did not give up on him, and all his brothers went to distribute leaflets to persuade him to surrender, but he thought it was fake.

He firmly believes that Japan will not be defeated, and his boss will keep his promise and lead the army to save him. So he insisted on guerrilla warfare in the dense forest until nearly 3 years later, when Japanese explorer Yukio Suzuki brought his boss Yoshimi Tanida, he turned in his weapon and announced his surrender.

He didn't starve to death on a desert island because he had received field military training and had strong viability. He would occasionally go to the farmer's house at the foot of the mountain to rob food and drink. He killed and wounded 13 Filipinos, including civilians who were killed while robbing.

1. On the orders of superiors, we launched guerrilla warfare in Lubang Island.

This man is a Japanese army second lieutenant, Hiroro Onoda. Speaking of it, he is also very unlucky. After receiving guerrilla training from the Army Nakano School in November 1944, he was sent to the battlefield of Lubang Island in the Philippines.

The American troops pushed into Lubang Island step by step. His boss, Yoshimi Tanida, decided to retreat, but ordered Hiroro Onoda and others to wage guerrilla warfare in the dense forest of Lubang Island, and said to him: I forbid you to commit suicide or surrender. I will be back in three, four or five years. Only I can cancel this order.

This boss is really amazing, which makes people speechless.

On February 28th, 1945, American troops captured Lubang Island, and most Japanese troops died or surrendered. However, Onota, Teru Shimada, Kozuka, and Chijin fled into the forest mountain, which opened a long guerrilla warfare mode.

Second, Onota insisted on fighting when his comrades surrendered or died.

A few people have received military training in the field, and their survival ability is extremely strong. They will not stay in one place for too long. They also salute the rising sun and encourage each other.

They are in the dense forest, and there are many natural fruits and small animals, which can be used to satisfy their hunger. They also find time to go to farmers' homes at the foot of the mountain to snatch food. It is said that they stole a lot of dried bananas to replenish energy and killed civilians.

The Philippines also suffered from this. It organized a search team to search in the mountains and distributed a large number of leaflets. The leaflets all said that Japan had surrendered, but these people didn't believe it at all. They thought they were tricking them out of the mountain.

In this photo, Onota's own brother came to Lubang Island to look for him, shouting with a megaphone, telling him that Japan had surrendered and the war was over. I was worried that he couldn't hear me, and I got a huge balloon to rise to the sky, which read: Kuanlang, brother!

Actually, Onota heard it, but he didn't believe it. He thought someone was impersonating his brother's voice.

Three of his teammates left him successively. In 195, Chijin couldn't stand this savage life and ran out of the jungle to surrender to the police. In May 1954, Teru Shimada died in a conflict with the police; In October 1972, Kozuka was also shot by the police.

Onota hid in the dense forest and insisted on fighting alone.

Third, the boss came to surrender, and Onota surrendered.

It was already in 1972 when Kozuka died in battle, and the transport of his body to Japan caused a sensation again. People from the Japanese government and the people continued to come to Lubang Island to look for him, but there was no sign of Onota.

In 1974, the explorer Yukio Suzuki also went to Lubang Island to look for Onota. Yukio Suzuki set up a tent in the dense forest and finally ran into Onota. Onota approached the Japanese on his own initiative.

Yukio Suzuki told him that the Japanese really surrendered, and the war had been over for many years. Onota was very depressed, but he still insisted on seeing his boss before surrendering, because he had promised his boss that he would not commit suicide or surrender.

Yukio Suzuki returned to Japan, found Yoshimi Tanida, and they came to Lubang Island together.

On March 1th, 1974, Onota, dressed in Japanese tattered military uniform, accompanied by his boss, surrendered to Lubang Island Police Station: I am second lieutenant Onota. I surrender to you on orders from my superiors.

Fourth, he was pardoned by the Philippine President and returned to Japan.

Onota wounded and killed 13 Filipinos, including civilians, in nearly 3 years of guerrilla warfare. Many people suggested putting him in prison, but at this time, Japanese and Philippine relations were very good, and Philippine President Marcos pardoned him.

actually, the Philippine police smiled at the photos of the surrender at that time, and I guess I thought it was a wonderful work.

Onota, who returned to Japan, became a touted hero. His former boss, Yoshimi Tanida, became a bookseller, and he also wrote a best-selling book: Never Surrender, My Thirty Years' War.

He didn't ask for Japanese consolation money, and refused to meet with the Japanese emperor, but paid homage to his comrade-in-arms Teru Shimada and the tomb of Otsuka.

on January 16th, 214, 91-year-old Onota died in Tokyo.
