In June 1993, the airport in Akita Prefecture, Japan was crowded with people. At this time, a large number of Japanese people and reporters from major local newspapers gathered in the airport. Soon a plane appeared in everyone's sight. As the landing gear slowly lowered, the plane also landed successfully.

Then the cabin door of the plane was opened, and two men, one old and one young, walked out. The old man was named Hiroshiro Ishida, a Japanese veteran who participated in the war of aggression against China; and the young man was named Sun Baojie, a genuine Chinese farmer!

After the two walked out of the cabin door, the crowd that had been waiting for a long time suddenly burst out with a warm welcome. They held up the sign "Welcome home" and kept shouting. The reporter next to

couldn't wait to take a picture of this scene. So what's going on? Why would a Chinese walk with a Japanese veteran who participated in the war of aggression against China? And what is the final outcome of this matter? If you think today's content is good, you can collect it in a circle and read it slowly!

market, met Japanese soldiers on the way

0 Since the start of Japan Meiji Restoration , Japan's national strength has been rapidly improved, and the ambitions of the Japanese government have become increasingly greater. Then they turned their attention to the increasingly decadent Qing dynasty.

In fact, Japan's covetousness for China's land has never disappeared since ancient times. As early as the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Japan sent troops to North Korea and was later defeated by the Ming army.

Since then, Japan has been like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, ready to bite China hard at any time, until the Western powers opened China's door with strong ships and cannons, Japan believes that their opportunity has come.

After launching modern reform, Japan's military strength was significantly improved. It then launched a sneak attack on the Qing Dynasty in 1894, and the Sino-Japanese War of 1895 95 officially broke out!

It can be said that this is a national destiny battle initiated by Japan after thirty years of reform. Under Japan's conspiracy, the already weak Qing Dynasty was defeated with one blow, and China was defeated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1895!

Since then, Japan has begun to invade China on a large scale. Until the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out in 1937, the ambition of Japanese imperialism to destroy our Chinese nation has become clear! When facing the crisis of national survival, the Chinese people awakened. After eight years of hardship in the War of Resistance, Japanese imperialism finally went to defeat!

On August 15, 1945, the Japanese government announced unconditional surrender. On September 2 of the same year, Japan officially submitted a surrender letter to my country.

After Japan's defeat, those arrogant Japanese soldiers who once showed off their power and power on the land of China suddenly turned into rats crossing the street - everyone shouted to beat them!

Although most of the Japanese soldiers eventually returned to Japan, a very small number of Japanese soldiers were still abandoned in China, and Ishida Hiroshiro was one of them.

The reason why Ishida Hiroshiro was abandoned in China by the Japanese army was mainly because Ishida suffered serious injuries at that time. In order not to delay the evacuation speed, the Japanese army directly abandoned Ishida on the roadside and let him fend for himself.

But there is a saying that goes, "A good person will not live long, and the disaster will last for thousands of years." Although Ishida was seriously injured, he finally survived. At this time, the main force of the Japanese army had already run away without a trace.

Ishida only lasted two or three years from receiving the conscription order to come to China. During this period, he spent most of his time in the Japanese army's barracks in the county town, so he was not familiar with the surrounding terrain. In addition, Japan had been defeated at this time and announced his surrender.

So the Chinese people in the countryside are not afraid of this injured and lonely Japanese soldier. They scold them with a little good attitude, and some even beat them directly.

That's it. Ishida didn't know how long he had been wandering. Although he also wanted to return to Japan, he didn't know how to return, two, he still had injuries on his body, and three, the Chinese people hated these Japanese soldiers very much and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

So Ishida had to make a living by begging along the way, but because of his Japanese soldier's identity, no one was willing to help him. In order to survive, Ishida had done anything.

Until 1946, Shitian begged all the way to a small town in Henan. At this time, it was at the market and the people took to the streets, which seemed very lively.

And Sun Bangjun, a farmer who is not far from the market, is also pulling a truck of goods here to sell them. Suddenly, Sun Bangjun saw that the market was surrounded by people.

Sun Bangjun, who was very curious in his heart, asked the passerby, what happened there? Passers-by couldn't explain it clearly for a while, just said that it seemed like they were beating people there.

When he heard that there was fun to watch, Sun Bangjun hurried over and joined in the fun, but after he saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly became angry!

Because Sun Bangjun saw a young man covered in wounds curled up on the ground, Sun Bangjun didn't understand why he wanted to hit him.

So Sun Bangjun stood up to stop this behavior and asked why the other party wanted to hit someone? The man replied after hearing Sun Bangjun's words, "This man won't pay for eating my buns!"

When he heard this answer, Sun Bangjun couldn't say anything for a while. After all, those who do business are afraid of these rascals.

But looking at the person covered with scars on the ground, Sun Bangjun felt soft and continued, "I gave it to him, don't fight, you will die if you beat him!"

But what Sun Bangjun did not expect was that when the other party heard this, he seemed even more angry. He said loudly, "The dead will die, and he deserves it if he is a Japanese soldier!"

, and the crowd suddenly started to talk, and Sun Bangjun was stunned when he heard this, because he was just asking the other party not to hit him, and he had not carefully seen who was being beaten.

After hearing this, Sun Bangjun turned his head and looked at it. Sure enough, the man lying on the ground was wearing Japanese soldiers' clothes, but he was too dirty and torn. He didn't recognize him just now!

Now Sun Bangjun doesn’t want to care about this anymore, because during the War of Resistance Against Japan, the village where Sun Bangjun was also invaded by Japanese soldiers, and the Japanese soldiers killed many people in the village at that time!

Then Sun Bangjun turned around and left. Shortly after Sun Bangjun left, the crowd gradually dispersed, and no one cared about the life or death of the Japanese soldier on the ground.

As time passes slowly and the market is spreading, Sun Bangjun also pulls a cart to go home, but at this moment, Sun Bangjun suddenly finds that someone seems to be following him.

So Sun Bangjun turned his head and saw that it was the Japanese soldier who was beaten just now, looking at him not far away. Looking at this scene, Sun Bangjun turned around and left .

But what Sun Bangjun did not expect was that the Japanese soldier continued to follow him relentlessly, which also made Sun Bangjun very puzzled, why did the Japanese soldier insist on following him? Could it be that I was successful because I just spoke for him?

I wanted to ask something clearly in my heart, so Sun Bangjun stopped and looked at the Japanese soldier, but the Japanese soldier seemed to be afraid of being beaten. Seeing Sun Bangjun stop, he also stopped.

I don’t know what Sun Bangjun was thinking at that time, but just sighed, then threw a steamed bun at the Japanese soldier, and waved his hand to let him leave.

But the Japanese soldier seemed to have recognized Sun Bangjun and followed him. No matter what Sun Bangjun said, he refused to leave. So will Sun Bangjun take the Japanese soldiers home in the end? And what is the ultimate fate of this Japanese soldier?

was soft-hearted for a moment and took in Japanese soldiers

Looking at the Japanese soldiers following closely behind, Sun Bangjun felt helpless for a while. He waited until Sun Bangjun was about to go home, and the Japanese soldiers were still following him.

Seeing this, Sun Bangjun sighed again, then waved his hand to let him come over. Seeing this, the Japanese soldier walked up carefully.After

, Sun Bangjun saw clearly the appearance of the Japanese soldier. There were scars on his forehead and his face was very vicissitudes. He looked very thin and more importantly, he seemed to be unable to speak!

Sun Bangjun, this authentic Chinese farmer, perhaps out of his natural kindness, made the final decision. He said to the Japanese soldier, "You can follow me, but you can't cause trouble." Then he pointed to the cart beside him and signaled to let the other party sit on it."

And the Japanese soldier seemed to understand what Sun Bangjun meant, so he immediately got on the cart and followed Sun Bangjun all the way back home.

When Sun Bangjun brought the Japanese soldiers home, the news soon spread throughout the village. Because he was poisoned by Japanese soldiers in his early years, the villagers hated the Japanese particularly!

At this time, I heard that Sun Bangjun brought a Japanese soldier to the village. For a moment, people flocked to Sun Bangjun's home and asked if the other party had really brought a Japanese soldier back?

At that time, Sun Bangjun was also in a dilemma, because his family members were extremely confused when they saw him bringing back a Japanese soldier, and his wife even asked why the Japanese soldier came back? Want to ask him what he wants to do?

But before Sun Bangjun could comfort his family, the villagers flocked to him. Now Sun Bangjun had no choice but to respond in the face of questions from his family and villagers.

I just saw that this person was seriously injured and felt very pitiful, so I took him back to treat his injuries and sent him away immediately after his injury healed. Seeing Sun Bangjun's repeated assurances, the villagers also left here, and their families believed what Sun Bangjun said.

Then, under Sun Bangjun's arrangement, his family first prepared a meal for the Japanese soldier, and then cooked a large pot of hot water for him to take a shower. After finishing, he changed into a clean and warm new clothes for him.

After everything was done, it became dark. At night, Sun Bangjun arranged the Japanese soldier to sleep in a woodshed in his backyard.

Looking at the sleeping Japanese soldiers, Sun Bangjun also returned to his house to lie down and rest, but at this time Sun Bangjun couldn't sleep. He was lying on the bed and tossing and turning, constantly thinking about what to do in the future?

But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the backyard. Sun Bangjun, who was confused, was immediately awakened by the scream, and then realized that it was sent by the Japanese soldier!

immediately got up and rushed to the backyard. When Sun Bangjun opened the door of the woodshed, he saw the Japanese running around in the room, screaming whimperingly.

Sun Bangjun came forward to stop this behavior, but the Japanese soldiers seemed to be in a very wrong state at this time, and they immediately became entangled with Sun Bangjun.

Later, the neighbor heard the noise and rushed over to help Sun Bangjun subdued the Japanese soldiers. Seeing this, the neighbor persuaded him again, "Let's see him away tomorrow!"

But Sun Bangjun fell into silence again and waited until dawn the next day, when Sun Bangjun led the Japanese soldiers to leave the village.

The family and villagers thought Sun Bangjun had listened to the advice and were very happy. So did Sun Bangjun really send the Japanese soldiers away?

named Li Tong, and forty-seven years of support

As Sun Bangjun and the Japanese soldiers were getting farther and farther away, the villagers also started to work, but until noon, the villagers were shocked to see that Sun Bangjun actually came back with the Japanese soldiers!

Then the villagers gathered at Sun Bangjun's house again to ask what the other party meant? Where did you go early in the morning? Then Sun Bangjun replied. I saw that I had seen last night, and it seemed that there was something wrong with my head, so I took him to the county hospital for a check-up this morning.

When Sun Bangjun heard that not only did not send the Japanese soldiers away, he treated him, the villagers became even more angry and their families were very puzzled.

But at this time, Sun Bangjun seemed to be determined to keep this Japanese soldier. Looking at Sun Bangjun so stubborn, the villagers had no choice.

Since then, this Japanese soldier has officially become a member of Sun Bangjun's family, and the villagers can often see this Japanese soldier coming out to bask in the sun.

Until the victory of the Liberation War, After the founding of New China , the local government went to the countryside to apply for household registration for each village and household. Sun Bangjun also officially registered the Japanese soldier and named him Li Tong!

But it is precisely because of this that the life of Sun Bangjun's family has become even more difficult, and the future life of his son Sun Baojie has been greatly affected.

First of all, as a Japanese soldier, Li Tong could not farm at all. In addition, his brain was injured in the war. Although the doctor later treated it, it was only relieved, not cured.

Li Tong usually stays in a confused state most of the time, and he doesn't know how to communicate with others. Even after living together for a long time, he can't speak. The doctor judged that this is a sequelae after a head injury.

When Li Tong was a little awake, Sun Bangjun would also think of teaching him some farm work, but what Sun Bangjun never expected was that Li Tong was really a person who was not diligent in four bodies and did not distinguish between grains.

asked him to go to the field to pull weeds, because he couldn't tell the difference between wheat seedlings and green grass, Li Tong pulled out all the wheat seedlings, leaving behind a field of green grass.

asked him to herd sheep, but the sheep came back, but he didn't come back by himself, and then asked him to mow grass and feed the cows. He had not cut a bundle for the whole day.

htmlWith helplessness, Sun Bangjun had to give up the idea in his heart and let Li Tong stay at home honestly and not go out at will. But this is not a big deal, especially his son Sun Baojie is gradually growing up. As the saying goes, men should get married, and women should get married.

The marriage of his son became Sun Bangjun's concern, but because Li Tong is a Japanese soldier, no one is willing to marry him. Later, after someone introduced her, Sun Baojie, who was nearly thirty years old, met a girl from the next village and got married to her.

And as time goes by, Sun Bangjun is getting older and older. At this time, he only has one wish in his heart, which is to send Li Tong home.

In fact, Sun Bangjun has also asked the government for help over the years, but because of the reason why Li Tong himself could not communicate, things have been delayed so much.

Until 1962, Sun Bangjun died of illness. Before his death, Sun Bangjun pulled his son Sun Baojie and said, asking him to promise to send his second uncle (Sun Baojie called Li Tong the second uncle) home.

Faced with the old father's death request, his son Sun Baojie agreed, but at that time, the normal diplomatic relations between China and Japan had not yet resumed, and Sun Baojie had no choice for a while.

Wait until 1972, Japanese Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka visited China, and then China and Japan announced the restoration of normal diplomatic relations, which gave Sun Baojie a glimmer of hope.

So did Sun Baojie fulfill his father's last wish this time? And what is Li Tong’s true identity?

fulfilled his last wish and sent Japanese soldiers home

After establishing diplomatic relations between China and Japan, Sun Baojie once again came to the local government, hoping to get help from the government, and the local government also attached great importance to this and immediately launched an investigation.

, but in the end, it was still limited by the conditions at that time, and it was not possible to verify who Li Tong was? In desperation, Sun Baojie had to return home.

In a blink of an eye, twenty years have passed. In 1992, the Japanese government sent a delegation to China to China. Sun Baojie, who received the news, believed that this might be the last chance.

So he tried his best to finally contact the group visiting China, and then explained Li Tong's situation and asked the other party to help him.

I heard that there was a Japanese veteran here and the delegation attached great importance to the visit to China. He immediately sent someone to his home with Sun Baojie, hoping to meet Li Tong.

Maybe the time has come. There happened to be a person whom Li Tong knew in this group of visiting China. He was his comrade-in-arms back then. He recognized the Li Tong in front of him at a glance, which was the abandoned Hiroshiro Ishida!

After recognizing it, the man first returned to Japan to contact Ishida's family. Only then did he know that Ishida's parents had passed away, and only one younger brother Ishida Kojuro is still there. After

, the visiting group of China finally confirmed the identity of Ishida Hiroshiro through DNA comparison, which completely shocked all walks of life in Japan.

None of Japan can imagine that a Japanese veteran who once participated in the war of aggression against China was taken in by the Chinese and lived to this day!

In June 1993, Sun Baojie took Li Tong, Ishida Hiroshiro, on board a flight back to Akita, Japan, and the opening scene happened.

Ishida's family and the villagers nearby were very grateful to Sun Baojie and his father Sun Bangjun. They forced Sun Baojie to stay in Japan for a month. After learning that the Sun family was in financial difficulties, they raised 5 million yen, equivalent to more than 300,000 yuan, and they wanted to donate it to the Sun family.

But Sun Baojie refused. Later, at Sun Baojie's suggestion, the money was donated to the local government to build his hometown. Since then, Sun Baojie has been in contact with the Ishida family.

In 1994, Sun Baojie's second son Sun Lufeng studied in Japan and received funding from the Japanese government. Later, Sun Lufeng married a Japanese girl. In 1997, Sun Baojie died of illness, and the Ishida family also sent a letter of condolences.
