Chapter 814: Abandoning Turpan
"Ahhh~~" screams continued, with someone taking the lead, a dying Russian soldier was bitten by his companion on the neck, and even several people bit one person at the same time, or drank enough to let go of the next person to suck, in short, they were sucking the warm blood to their heart's content.
The blood is very fishy, but it can bring warmth, and it can also replenish water, Kaufman is right, at this time, everything is false, life is the last word, and he did a good demonstration, the soldiers did the same, took off their clothes and set them on fire, cut off pieces of meat, set them on fire, and then swallowed them in their stomachs.
Some people are born indifferent, chewing and chewing, eating more naturally than Kaufman, some people look at the pieces of meat, their faces are full of hesitation, and finally the extravagant hope of survival prevails over human instinct, close their eyes, pinch their noses, and swallow, and others just put it in their mouths, they begin to vomit, but only by eating can they live, they force themselves to swallow, keep vomiting, vomit and eat again, and the cycle repeats, the difference is only how many times they need to vomit to get used to.
In the narrow valley road, the bonfire was everywhere, wafting the strange smell of barbecue, this time, while recovering their strength, the Russian army left after eating, leaving only piles of ashes and a mutilated corpse.
Of course, there were more than 10,000 fewer people in the ranks, and the sacrifices of more than 10,000 people were exchanged for the lives of the remaining nearly 270,000 people.
The next day, when the soldiers of the Democratic Alliance Army chased here, they were all stunned, looking at the piles of bones, internal organs, palms, soles and heads, no one could have imagined that the Russian army would be so frustrated, Yang Shuijiao and some female soldiers were restrained from vomiting on the spot, and even Zhou Xiuying, who had personally chopped Zhong Dianxuan, was churning in her chest and abdomen.
This can't be blamed on her, there is hatred when she chooses the bell hall, and hatred fills her heart and makes her focus on chopping. This hatred cannot be solved by a thousand cuts, but these Russian soldiers are different, they have no personal grudges with her, it is nothing more than a struggle between race and living space, and it is enough to kill her, and replace her. She would never use such tactics against the Russians.
"Vomit~~" Yang Shuijiao's tears came out, and she said with difficulty: "The Russians are so cruel that they actually eat the corpses of their companions, looking at his hairy appearance, he really hasn't fully evolved into a human being." ”
Wang Feng was quite unimpressed, he could also understand the situation of the Russian army, in the winter night, the consequence of losing all the baggage could only be freezing to death or starvation. Especially since the Russian army has been on an empty stomach for a day and a night, and if they don't want to die, they can only share their companions.
In fact, before the establishment of modern civilization, although cannibalism was hated by people, it happened from time to time, and every time there was a war and famine in China, the phenomenon of cannibalism was not uncommon, such as cannibalism among ordinary people. There are also wives and concubines who are sold to butchers, and they are openly sold in the market. Whichever part the customer clicks, he immediately cuts it, and he cuts it alive, which is no different from Ling Chi.
If you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, which is the golden rule of Confucianism. It also shows from the side that the essence of human beings is selfish, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can only be done within their ability, and when survival becomes a problem, people will become devils, and their selfish nature will be completely exposed.
Merely. Wang Feng didn't want to stimulate Yang Shuijiao, but took out a handkerchief from Yang Shuijiao's pocket, wiped the stains from the corners of her mouth very carefully and gently, and then said with a look of indignation: "The Russians cannibalism, exterminate humanity, and commit ****** crimes, none of the more than 200,000 Russian troops can escape, come here, take pictures of the scene, let the whole world know the cruelty of the Russians, and then seize the time to pursue and resolutely eliminate these cannibal demons." ”
"Yes!" Several reporters with the army set up their cameras and took random pictures of the corpses scattered all over the ground.
For example, two days ago, the Russian army drove Central Asians as cannon fodder, and an angry denunciation article was also prepared, and today the Russian army eats its own kind, Wang Feng believes that this kind of blockbuster news with pictures must set off an uproar in world public opinion and bring extremely negative adverse effects to Russia.
At least some left-wingers and mother-type figures in Europe and the United States will attack Russia in a frenzy.
Ten minutes later, the reporter put away the camera, the whole army continued to pursue, it does not matter if there is no trace of the Russian army, there is only one road from Hami to Turpan, unless the Russian army has the ability to cross the Tianshan Mountains.
The Russian army went into battle lightly and completely got rid of the drag of baggage, while the Democratic Alliance army had to carry artillery and food supplies, and the marching speed was a little slower than that of the Russian army, and the Russian army began to flee last night, and the distance was twenty or thirty kilometers.
However, a pile of broken corpses every 100 kilometers indicates the traces of the Russians, but it is impossible to catch up with the Russians before rushing to Turpan.
On the seventh day, the Russian army finally returned to Turpan, and the total number of people was still about 250,000, which is equivalent to the Russian army eating nearly 50,000 of its own.
Everyone seems to have fallen apart, recalling the experience of the past few days, there is a thrilling feeling, especially after eating so many companions, it is inevitable that some people will have a sense of guilt, except for a few heartless people who fall asleep, most people are rushing to the church to confess and plead for their sins.
Kaufman frowned, looking preoccupied, and a staff officer leaned forward and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, but are you worried that you won't be able to hold Turpan?" ”
"yes!" Kaufman nodded: "The remaining strength of our army is already equivalent to the Chinese army, and we still lack heavy weapons, once the Chinese rush to attack, I am afraid that they may not be able to resist, what good way do you have?" ”
The staff officer muttered: "The current situation is obvious, Xinjiang is most likely unable to hold, I mean immediately retreat to Central Asia and give up the occupation of Xinjiang." ”
"Give up?" Kaufman was unwilling to say: "His Majesty the Tsar entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, and all of Russia is paying attention to me, and I have lost so many people and achieved nothing, how can you explain if you let me return home?" In particular, we have eaten our own companions, and once it leaks out, it will inevitably be used as an excuse for attacks by political opponents, no, I will never withdraw from Xinjiang until the last moment.
Didn't General Vyazelsky go to the rescue of Vilneburg? If there is good news, we may not have a chance to turn defeat into victory, and I think we should wait for ten days and a half to be fine. ”
The staff officer said again: "Your Excellency, regardless of what happened to General Vyazelsky, I just want to remind you that even if it lasts for ten days and a half months, then what about after that?" If we are defeated, we still have to leave all our baggage and flee, from Turpan to Urumqi is 200 kilometers, we have to eat our companions at least once again to ensure that we have sufficient physical strength, and if Urumqi cannot hold on, then I am afraid that when we return to Central Asia, it will be very good to have 350,000 people left. ”
Indeed, according to this staff officer's algorithm, if he is defeated and retreated all the way, not many of the nearly 400,000 Russian troops will be killed in battle, and most of them will be eaten by his own people, even if Kaufman no longer takes human life seriously, he can't help but feel terrified, and I am afraid that he will also be named a cannibalistic governor in the future.
But Vyazelsky is always one of his hopes, and he is unbalanced when he withdraws from Xinjiang now.
Intellectually, Kaufman agreed with the staff officer's analysis, but emotionally, there was a hint of a gambler's mentality, and for a while, he fell into extreme entanglement.
The staff officer sighed and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, I understand your feelings, and I don't want to face defeat, in fact, we can take a compromise method, give up Turpan, and return to Urumqi first to see the situation, with the distance between us and the Chinese army, as long as we go now, they can't catch up, and we can also set fire to Turpan, delay the pursuit of the Chinese army, and buy more time for us to retreat." ”
Kaufman hesitated: "Give up Turpan? Turpan is the main road connecting northern and southern Xinjiang, and if it is occupied by the Democratic Alliance forces, doesn't that mean that we have cut off contact with southern Xinjiang? ”
The staff officer smiled bitterly: "Now that there is only Agu Bai all the way left in southern Xinjiang, how much can he help us?" Even if he is surrounded by Chinese troops, he will fight to the death, because he knows that the Chinese will not let him go.
And Urumqi is closer to Khorgos and Alashankou, in case General Vyazevsky encounters difficulties, we can also escape back to Central Asia at the first time, Your Excellency the Governor, we can no longer afford the slightest defeat, please think twice. ”
In fact, abandoning Turpan and moving to Urumqi just to escape is more convenient, which is equivalent to admitting defeat, but the staff officer is right, do you really have to wait for the Chinese to attack, and you have to eat up your own people all the way to escape back to Central Asia?
His face was hesitant and he struggled repeatedly, and Kaufman finally said in despair: "Pass my order, the whole army will immediately make preparations for retreat, and it must be completed within two hours, and then someone will collect the things that cause the fire and place them in the main buildings in the city." ”
"Yes!" The staff officer saluted and walked away quickly.
With the order issued, many people are complaining, after all, the Chinese are still a hundred kilometers behind, continuous rush, mental and physical strength have reached the limit, everyone wants to sleep well, especially after slackening and tense again, this is undoubtedly an ordeal, but there is no way, Kaufman's speech in the Russian army is still very effective, the whole army has to get busy, take away as much as possible the materials that can be taken away.
After two hours of accuracy, a scattered team gathered outside the west gate of Turpan, mixed with many vehicles, carrying food and cold supplies, after the skyrocketing fire in the city, Kaufman waved his hand in a complicated mood: "Urumqi is two hundred kilometers ahead, everyone hold on, and then have a good rest when you arrive in Urumqi, and now the whole army is set off." ”
The soldiers dragged their tired footsteps slowly to the west. (To be continued.) )
