Chapter 343: Dalit Female Soldiers
Three more than 10,000 words, asking for a monthly ticket.
Since they were going to rest today, none of them went out, and in the evening they saw some local food, and there were some things that no one could adapt to.
In general, most of the people of the three kingdoms eat mush, and even if they have rice and white flour, they can make you a colorful mush.
Due to the different taboos of various religions, some meats cannot be eaten in the three countries, and gradually evolved into a vegetarian-based dietary system.
In addition to beef, chicken and mutton are the main foods of the people of the three countries, because cattle are worshiped as gods in the three countries.
Whether in high-end restaurants or under the shade of trees on the street, you can often see the people of the Three Kingdoms sitting cross-legged on the ground, tearing off a piece of naan with their hands, dipping it in vegetable paste, soup and bean soup made from various soy products such as peas and mung beans, and eating it with relish.
There are also foods that combine bread with potatoes, such as Masaladosa, a crispy burrito with assorted vegetables such as potatoes.
And what can make Han Peacock accept it the most should be a kind of mashed potatoes wrapped in dough and stuffed into the shape of zongzi, this thing is fried, and it tastes good, but this thing is okay to eat once in a while, if it is used as the staple food of every meal, it will be more sad.
In terms of beverages, there is a popular milk tea in India, called Chai, because it is a hot drink, especially suitable for drinking a cup on a cold and wet morning. It feels good.
If you don't want to have milk tea, there is also a drink called Laxi, which is a kind of yogurt, which is divided into ordinary yogurt and fruit yogurt (bananas, mangoes, etc.), and foreigners who come to the three countries generally drink more yogurt, even when they are upset.
Alcoholic beverages are not readily available in the three countries, and although the three countries have breweries and their own whiskey, they cannot buy beer in general shops and restaurants. It may be that the shopkeeper is worried about the taboo of people with different taboos.
Usually in frequented restaurants. You can make a request, and the restaurant people will go out to buy it back, the beer is more expensive, the most common brand Kingfisher. It costs Rs 80 per bottle.
Overall. One of the major characteristics of A-Mikuni cuisine is that there are many paste-like dishes. Moreover, various pigments are added, so there is often yellow soup and green paste. Red mud is difficult to get used to without a period of getting used to it.
Because you may be careless, you will associate some bad things, so even if you smell fragrant and you are hungry, you may not be able to eat it.
In addition, whether at home or in a restaurant, the people of the three kingdoms of Afghanistan believe that raw water is the best drink, and there is always a glass of cold water on the table.
The health of the diet in the three countries is not very good, and most of the tourists who come here have symptoms of gastrointestinal discomfort, so it is necessary to pay attention to food hygiene due to the different physiques of individuals.
This kind of food, after eating it once, the catkins are enough, there is no way, Han Peacock can only find someone to buy the materials, cook and eat by himself, fortunately they have rice here, and they can also buy chicken and beef, otherwise, they will not be able to stay here for a day.
After solving the problem of eating, Han Xing prepared everything and just waited for tomorrow's departure.
Although the preparation time is not short, it really comes, and there are more problems encountered.
When the car drove out of the road for more than 100 kilometers, Han Peacock's speed began to slow down, and the highway of the Three Kingdoms of Ah Sanguo was really impossible to say, of course, his highway was not good, but his railway was very powerful, maybe the highway was not easy to walk, so the railway became their most important means of travel.
It would have taken them four or five hours to reach their destination, but it took them twelve hours to reach a small mountain village.
Although it is called a mountain village, the mountain is not high, but there are many trees, and there is a lot of green everywhere.
If it weren't for the fact that the road was too difficult to walk, it would be a good pleasure to travel here, but now, it is torture.
It's been a bumpy ride, and if it weren't for a dilapidated off-road car, they probably wouldn't have made it here.
As soon as they stopped the car, Han Peacock and they were shocked again.
I saw that around their car, there were immediately several green figures around, these people were holding 97-type rifles in their hands, and they didn't look like they were coming to greet them.
"Didn't you say that the security of the three countries is very good? Is that good? Han Peacock looked at Han Xingdao.
Han Xing didn't have a trace of panic, he looked at Han Peacock strangely and said, "Big brother, aren't you afraid?" ”
"You're not afraid, what am I afraid of?" Han Peacock patted Liu Wu's back and comforted her, he was really not afraid, such militants, as long as they were not mad and opened fire when they saw people, Han Peacock had a way to destroy them.
Han Xing said with admiration: "The eldest brother's mind is really delicate, these should be the local armed forces that my classmates said, they are all oppressed and ruthless, and they hold guns, just for self-defense." ”
"Oppression?" The catkins are still a little uncomfortable.
Han Xing said: "They are Dalits and are often treated unfairly, although there are fewer occurrences now, but it is not nothing, so they take guns just out of self-defense." ”
The Three Kingdoms still have a caste system, in which the lowest strata are called "untouchables", i.e., untouchables, by the traditional upper castes, and they themselves call themselves "oppressed people", i.e. Dalits.
To this day, in some of the still conservative villages of the three countries, you will see some people walking to avoid people, because they can't let their shadow fall on passers-by.
What's more, there are people who carry brooms and sweep away their footprints as they walk, and they work for the people of the village, but they are not allowed to live in the village; They can't go to the village well to fetch water, and even if their children can go to school, they have to go to a specialized school.
There are currently 167 million Dalits in the three countries, representing 16.2 per cent of the population.
A 200-page report released at the end of December 2006 by India's Central Investigation Department described the fate of a Dalit family: a mother named Suri Kabert Manji was dragged out of her home by a group of villagers. She was stripped naked in public, beaten with wooden sticks and bicycle chains, and then grabbed her head several times and hit the wall until she died.
Surika's 17-year-old daughter, Preyanka, was picked up from the cowshed where she was hiding by the same gang, stripped of her clothes, beaten in a group, and hit her head against the wall to death.
The same goes for her two youngest sons, Sudir and Rosan, who had been blinded in one eye before he died.
The four bodies of the Bertmanji family were transported by the mob in an ox cart to a canal half a kilometre away and discarded, and the only person in the family who fled for his life was his father.
Eyewitnesses said that Surika and Preyanka were also raped. But forensic exams in the report failed to find strong evidence.
According to the survey in Maharashtra. In 1981 604 Dalit women were raped, in 1990 the number increased to 885 and in 2000 to 1,034.
Rajasthan, another relatively backward state in western India, over the past three years. The average number of cases of violence against Dalits per year. 5,024 cases were reported alone; Thereinto. On average, there were 46 fatal injuries, 134 rapes and 93 serious injuries and abuse.
It can be said that where there is oppression, there is resistance, and this small village is a small gathering place formed by typical Dalits.
They were landless peasants in the first place. Living elsewhere, they could be oppressed at any time, so they gathered into a village and took refuge in this small mountain village deep in the jungle.
Han Peacock got out of the car and looked at the tall militants, and when he saw the appearance of those people clearly, he was dumbfounded again.
When these mighty soldiers saw them get out of the car, they immediately knelt down and kissed their shoes.
Liu Wu also exclaimed: "All women? ”
Han Xing said: "It's the first time I've seen it, when I first heard about it, I didn't believe it, here, when I met a nobleman, I had to immediately kneel down and kiss my shoes to show my wholehearted obedience." ”
Han Peacock looked at these tall women, although their skin was a little dark, but they were definitely not ugly, although they had the characteristics of the typical A-Three Kingdoms, but they were dressed in camouflage, and they looked so heroic.
Judging from their actions such as holding guns, surrounding, and collecting guns, they are no worse than some professional soldiers.
Just when Han Peacock was a large number of these female soldiers, those female soldiers were also secretly looking at Han Peacock and the others, and at this time, Gupal got out of the car and began to communicate with those female soldiers.
Rajawa next to her translated on the side: "Mr. Han, your subordinates have already gone up the mountain, and at the same time there are many villagers in the village, because there are only the old and weak left in the village, so they have raised the vigilance of the village, please don't worry, we can go into the village now to rest, it's not early now, and your subordinates will come back later." ”
Han Peacock half-hugged the catkins and walked into their village under the protection of the female soldiers in shabby camouflage.
While walking, Rajawa communicated with Gupal: "Mr. Han, there are more than 600 people in this small village, which is the largest Dalit village in the surrounding area, and the Gupal family is also here, so you can rest assured."
And they are all devout Buddhists, although they have their own arms, but they are all good people, and there is no way to hunt in peacetime, if they don't hunt, they will starve to death, so even if they take up arms, it is just to protect themselves.
As you can see, they are all beautiful girls, and if they don't have the power to protect themselves, they are the most vulnerable to persecution, so they will be educated by the elders of the village from an early age, so that they can learn some means of self-protection. ”
"They're Buddhists?" Han Peacock said curiously, he didn't have much interest in other things, but didn't the Buddhists disappear in the Three Kingdoms?
"Since 2008, when nearly 10,000 Dalits converted to Buddhism in the village of Pukriya, near Kanpur in the northern part of the country, more and more Dalits have begun to change their faith, and this change seems to have been after the Khanda riots. ”
Although I don't know what happened to the Candema riots, I think it was nothing more than bullying the Dalits, and if it weren't for that, the Dalits wouldn't have made the decision to change their faith.
Han Peacock didn't ask more, and Rajawa didn't say more.
Liu Wu looked at the broken grass sheds, as well as the broken straw shoes on the feet of those female soldiers, although the camouflage on her body was very neat, it could be seen that it had been washed a little white.
The tallest building in the village should be the tall courtyard wall outside the village, but this courtyard wall is only made of rubble, and such a wall can't block anything at all.
Although they have spent a lot of effort to build walls outside the village, they have not repaired their houses properly, and if psychology explains this phenomenon, it is that they are extremely insecure.
Han Peacock and the others were arranged in a brick house in the center of the village, which had no door and was supported by several long stone pillars.
The only difference between it and the grass hut is that the roof is covered with red tiles, and Han Peacock found that this is the only brick house in the village.
What does the countryside look like in the three countries? In the countryside of the Three Kingdoms, people live in the same strict hierarchy as China did hundreds of years ago.
Most of the peasants lived in low-slung huts with shabby furnishings, while the landlords lived in luxury, and the Three Kingdoms had a very strict hierarchy, especially in the countryside.
Here, there is extreme inequality between people, and it is hard to imagine that a democracy that claims to be the largest democracy in the world is actually divided into hierarchies, and what is even more terrifying is that the ranks are inherited, no matter how hard a pariah tries, this pariah and his descendants will be untouchables for all eternity.
In the landlord's house, the status of those male servants and maids is even inferior to the landlord's dog, almost everything in the village is the landlord's final say, including who to elect as prime minister, the so-called one person, one vote is a joke, the untouchables dare not go against the landlord, otherwise the landlord will not even give you the land.
This group of Dalits was bullied by the landlord and couldn't get by, so they fled here and gathered to live together.
Although they have the advantage of numbers, they have no land, and the land here is not suitable for farming, so they can only feed some chickens and graze some cattle and sheep.
Of course, there are very few cows, and there are not many sheep, only chickens, which are available in every family, but there are not many, and there are already a lot of more than a dozen chickens in the family.
The tropical jungle is very dangerous, and the land there does not belong to them, so the people in this village have extremely few means of livelihood, and hunting is an extremely important means for them.
It is because there are a group of professionally trained female soldiers in this village, and this training has been passed down from generation to generation, so that generations of female soldiers in this village have grown up smoothly.
This group of female soldiers is completely different from those women in the slums of the city, because they are relatively healthy and do not have the appearance of yellow muscles and thin muscles, so they look more beautiful.
In this strange country, you can see a lot of super beauties in the city, but the girls in the countryside are black and thin because they are very hard, and there are really not many who can look heroic like this group of female soldiers. (To be continued......)
