Chapter 185: Looting the only food
Although the emergency rescue plan has been issued, Yang Mingzhi is still not relieved, where can he continue to stare at the militia's training as if no one is fine. He was willing to stay at the division headquarters www.biquge.info sit at the table like Yevlov and wait for the latest news on the radio.
Yang Mingzhi was a little worried: "This group of refugees, mainly Jewish, was hungry and starved due to lack of clothing and clothing, and they continued to advance south in the snow. There are a large number of women and children in the army, and with such a long line, walking two or three kilometers an hour is already their limit. ”
The map shows that the Bend of the Dnieper River is at least thirty kilometers away from the barracks, but closer to the village of Heitu.
"You have a point, but we have to find them first. After that, what to do is to camp and supply on the spot, or continue to rush straight to Heitu Village, and then talk about it. ”
"That's all it takes, I hope those people can continue to work hard and take a few more steps!"
After receiving the order to take off urgently, the pilot Podovich thought that another air battle was about to take place. I didn't expect that my car would be reduced to a reconnaissance plane, and I was suddenly unhappy.
The herald said: "Comrade pilot, the order given to you by the division commander is to be the first to find the refugee team, so you have to unload the machine gun and load something special. ”
The so-called special thing is two hemp cloth pockets filled with pancakes. Pancakes are just pan-cooked pasta, this simple food made in the canteen according to Yang Mingzhi's description, and the black hairy people in the army simply call it naan.
People only have the strength to march when they are full, and two bags of grain can solve some urgent needs, and they are also a heart booster.
In addition to this, Podovich had to carry a radio, and he already knew the usefulness of such a machine. Thus he understood his responsibility, and the technician helped him bundle up all the cargo and slowly lift the plane into the air.
In addition to the airdrops, the rescue force was a battalion, consisting mainly of local militia.
Nineli was already the commander of a militia battalion and led more than 500 men to receive the necessary relief supplies from the quartermaster at once. That is, a lot of blankets, miscellaneous clothes, and food.
Horse-drawn sledding is undoubtedly the best tool for moving through the snow, and the other thing is horses.
In this operation, all the horses in the barracks were dispatched, and the horses carried supplies were led forward by the soldiers.
At the same time, Heitu Village also received intelligence from the division headquarters. Yevlov had already given the order to the village chief, Volmansky: "You can organize the militia to go north, search for a large contingent of refugees, prepare a large amount of food, and immediately go north along the river." ”
The rescue team actually became two groups, and theoretically, the rescue force of Heitu Village would arrive first.
Of course, where can the footsteps of humans and animals catch up with the plane?
Podovich in the sky squinted, and even though he was wearing windproof glasses, he was strongly stimulated by the strong reflection of the snow. The ground was snow-white, and the forest was black. If it's a group of people on the move, they're very easy to spot.
Podovich flew along the Dnieper, but the river was frozen, and he searched the ground, and the troops that were struggling to move forward were successfully discovered by him.
Podovich immediately called to the division headquarters.
"Catfish, catfish! I'm an eagle! I'm an eagle! The target has been discovered! ”
"Eagle received! Eagle received! Please report their location quickly, over! ”
While Podovich was driving the plane, he generally opened a paper map. These men have been advancing along the banks of the Dnieper, and it is wise that the search force will find them very easily.
"They're in the F025 area, south down the river! Complete! ”
When he reported the situation, Yang Mingzhi and Yevlov were already waiting by the radio, and the specific location had been reported, and the two were ecstatic.
"Misha! Now immediately send a report to Ninelli and the Black Earth Village, ordering them to immediately advance to the F025 area as fast as possible! Yevlov ordered urgently.
Once the location is known, the rescue becomes a clue.
On the other hand, Alexander is really under a lot of pressure, the whole team is supporting the old and the young, the soldiers are hungry and cold, everyone walks swayingly, how far is the destination?
Many soldiers complained, and Alexander had to repeat it like a machine, and he took the trouble to say: "It's almost there!" Hold on a little longer. ”
The soldiers did not complain either, because they were running out of strength to lose their temper.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound from the south, and the soldiers understood that it was an airplane coming. The whole team stopped staggering, every pair of eyes looked expectantly at the blue sky in the south, and every heart was pounding!
An I-153 fighter suddenly appeared, as if an angel had descended! It rushed to the top of the group and flew low in a circle, when suddenly two large brown sacks of burlap were thrown off. And the plane was still circling, which was a very unusual behavior.
But the people were even more curious about what was thrown down, so that suddenly someone in the line shouted, "They're throwing bread!" Everyone, go get it! ”
At the sight of the word bread, the crowd was doping, even the frail women went berserk, and the refugee group went straight to the place where the sack had fallen. The speed of their change made the soldiers so much that many of them blindly followed.
Alexander was taken aback, and the otherwise orderly ranks suddenly went into disarray.
These people, who were almost frozen to death and starved to death, suddenly turned into hungry wolves. Among them, the adult men rushed the most fiercely, the women were not far behind with their children, and the last old man also faltered with the crowd.
"Oh no, these crazy guys are going to rob! Something is going to happen! Alexander immediately drew his pistol, and he first gathered the soldiers together.
He ran out of revolvers with his famous gun, and the soldier's heart was brought back.
"Now without my order, you are not allowed to loot things with those people, otherwise you will be shot on the spot!"
The soldiers were able to enforce the order, and the refugees who were so hungry were completely insane.
Some rationality is meaningless under hunger, wise people will follow the instinct of survival and become hungry wolves in search of food, and those who have exploded in bestiality will even eat people.
No, when the first person to untie the sack found that it was full of pasta, the chaos instantly intensified.
A few strong men grabbed a few loaves of bread and put them in their arms, and when the people saw that they had food in their arms, the robbery immediately ensued.
Podovich was horrified to see a large crowd of people on the ground. "Aren't these people dying of starvation? How did it become like this! He immediately reported this information to the division headquarters.
Yelentina finished handling her own affairs and returned to the division headquarters with great interest, hoping to get good news, but she didn't expect the pilot to say three "bad" in a row.
"Oh my God, you're going to order him to simply throw the food down and solve the urgent need?!" Yerentina slapped the table angrily: "You guys are crazy! I don't know if this will cause a scramble?! ”
Yang Mingzhi and Yevlov were still puzzled, how those people went crazy, like zombies with the T-virus. After Yelenkina's simple speculation, Yang Mingzhi realized that he had made a big mistake.
"Oops! Too bad! I forgot that they were all going to be hungry and eating each other! Damn it, I'm driving them to rob! This is miserable, many people will be trampled to death and exhausted! ”
Yevlov patted Yang Mingzhi on the shoulder: "You don't have to blame yourself too much, we don't handle things well, I have a lot of responsibility as a division commander." Ultimately, you and I have a collective responsibility. ”
Collective responsibility is no responsibility, Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but smile. This war is really like an ant.
At this moment, Yerenkina also knew that anger could not solve the problem, "The most important thing now is how to stop the robbery!" ”
Yang Mingzhi's mind quickly turned, and now he could rely on that pilot.
"Now urgently order Podovich to fly at a very low altitude and disperse the crowd with strong winds and noise! The rest depends on the control of the soldiers in that team! ”
Podovich took the order, and he began to dive as hard as he could, and the strong whistling sound was deafening, and the people who were still looting immediately covered their ears, and some simply knelt on the ground. Then the fighter jets flew through the crowd at an ultra-low altitude of only ten meters above the ground, and the strong wind even blew down many people.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Alexander's soldiers advanced in a skirmish line and immediately took control of the scene.
There were also people who planned to continue to loot were pulled away, and the hardliners simply waited with the butts of their guns. The looting scene ended with the violent handling of the soldiers, but around the sacks, more than a dozen people were already lying down. There were men and women, and young children.
The soldiers took control of all two sacks and gathered all the refugees together, taking all the bread looted.
Alexander's heart was already numb, he had seen too much death. The refugee cannibalism did not make him too angry.
"Now you stand in line, the women stand in a row, the underage children stand in a row, and the adult men stand in a row!" Alexander divided the team into three groups, and he was also selfish, and the soldiers were given a sack of bread, and the rest was distributed among the refugees.
Under the threat of guns and bayonets, there was no further looting. After the horrific incident just now, many people became indifferent, and everyone received a small piece of bread and quickly devoured it. (To be continued.) )
