"Hurry up and cover your mouth and nose. Don't make any noise. If people outside know that we are hiding here, they will not give up. You must hold back..."
Everyone blocked their mouths and noses with wet cloths and breathed carefully. They knew that the outside must be surrounded by enemies who were pouring cigarettes from hole to hole. If there was a sound, they would keep pouring it until they were forced out. If If a bonfire makes no sound, they will move to another hole to continue.
"Everyone, hold on...it's just a matter of time for a bonfire...you must hold on..."
The smoke became thicker and thicker, and people even felt that the smoke had completely wrapped their bodies. No one dared to open their eyes. The burning smell was very uncomfortable.
There are always old, weak, sick and disabled people in the crowd who can't stand it. A young man named Wang had just recovered from typhoid fever. His lungs were at their most sensitive period. He couldn't hold back even if he covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth. .
Cough cough... The slight coughing sound frightened the people around him and kicked him quickly, but the infected person couldn't bear it at all, and soon there were two low coughing sounds.
"What the fuck, are you going to die if you shut up?" Ding Si leaned forward with a fierce look on his face, covering his mouth and nose with his left hand, and went around Xiao Wang's neck with his right hand to cover his mouth fiercely.
A series of Russian words suddenly sounded outside. No one knew if the enemy had discovered them. This was already their last hiding place. If they were discovered, these people would definitely die.
Xiao Wang's feet were kicking helplessly, but Ding Si and the others were all focused on the outside. No one realized that the boy's mouth and nose had been completely covered, let alone coughing. It was impossible to breathe.
The noise outside the cave became louder and louder, and people's hearts were in their throats. More and more thick smoke blew in. Soon people forgot about Xiao Wang, and everyone's hearts were in their throats. .
This group of people was really lucky. After another half hour of hard work, people obviously felt that the smoke from the fireworks blowing into the cave was much smaller. In the end, there was even a cool wind blowing in. It seemed that the enemies outside had given up here. Go find a new hole.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and Ding Si let go of the limp little Wang. "Oh my god, you scared me to death. I almost died because of this... Okay, Xiao Wang, you can cough now..." Little Wang, Little Wang!”
It was only then that people realized that Xiao Wang had not moved for a long time, and he had stopped breathing if he changed his mouth and nose.
Ding Si was dumbfounded on the spot. He never expected that he would actually cover his brother to death. "Oh my god... why did he die? How did he die..."
No one knew what to say. Ding Si grinned and suddenly opened his arms and gave himself two big-eared melon seeds. "Are they tigers? Are they fucking tigers?"
Li Gui grabbed his hand, "Are you crazy? Do you want to bring in enemies from outside? Shut your mouth and wait until it's safe before you howl... Damn you, this is war. Do you understand war?" The brothers outside are worse off than Xiao Wang!"
What Li Gui said was not wrong at all. In the evening, Atolin on the Aleut and his party, Secretary Coster, finally landed on this gold-rich island.
Coster used his pen to record all the incredible things in front of him.
"...The battle officially ended around four in the afternoon. The Commodore and I landed on the island together. The scene in front of me was shocking..."
"...There are dead bodies everywhere, scattered everywhere, and the ground is covered with black and purple coagulated plasma, which is extremely dazzling against the thin white snow..."
"... Countless Chinese prisoners are cleaning the battlefield under the coercion of bayonets. With faces of horror or numbness, they pull off the clothes of the dead, searching for possible gold..."
"...All the rooms in the mine were searched. The gold sand in the leather pockets and the rough gold ingots were actually cast into a beautiful horseshoe shape. This is completely different from the aesthetics of the people in Moscow..."
"...There is no doubt that the winner has privileges. Battalion Commander Andreev is known as the Man-Bear. There seems to be infinite power in his body. He used ropes to surround a gladiatorial arena and released one person after another. A famous prisoner goes in to fight with him. If a prisoner fails, there is only one outcome, and that is death..."
"...God bless me. I saw with my own eyes that he lifted up a thin Chinese man and then smashed it down onto his knees. The spine was broken into two pieces with a crack. It was even more exaggerated. He actually used his hard head to hit the foreheads of those Chinese people, one after another, as if he was smashing a watermelon with his own head..."
"...I have to admit that I was disgusted when I saw such a scene. Fortunately, I am a civil servant so I don't have to go through all this. And because I often help these soldiers write letters home, they still respect me very much and see my face. Showing disgust, these people would avoid me and kill people, but despite this, I still saw many scenes that made me sick..."
"...Second Battalion Commander Vadim is known as the Human Killer. His eyes are as annoying as a cold poisonous snake. He is very good at all kinds of torture. It is worth mentioning that he innovatively created a hanging... The dead man’s new method…”
"Tie a slip knot common in the navy on the branches of a tall pine tree, and then tie the two ends down to the captive's feet and shoulders. The prisoner's back is stuck face down on the branch, and then the spine is pushed up hard... …”
"...I really can't describe the misery. Human slaughtering Vadim will not let the captives die immediately. He just increases his strength bit by bit, making the captives feel the pain of having their spines broken. Every ten seconds Over a few minutes, he will increase his strength a little, until finally his spine can no longer bear the torture and breaks..."
"...Later I heard that the highest record among the prisoners was 38 minutes. The poor people were actually tortured like this. Although they were pagans, I still felt very uncomfortable. By the way, there is one more thing that I am very worried about. It’s puzzling, but Battalion Commander Vadim has a wooden house of his own, and a strong smell of barbecue often comes from inside. I wanted to take a look, but the guard who I was close to stopped me, shaking his head and forbidding me to get closer..."
"...I didn't know what meat tasted like until long after the war. My God, please forgive me. I swear that I will be a vegetarian for the rest of my life, at least when I return to Moscow." Vegetarians…”
Coster's diary, which recorded the entire battle of Qingdao, also became ironclad evidence of the Russians' brutal rule. During the diplomatic debate after the war, this diary became important evidence against the Russians.
The tragic experience of the indigenous people in the Far East moved the whole of Europe, causing the Russians to lose the legitimacy to rule this region. The protracted debate was really a classic diplomatic breakthrough.
Note: There will be another update at 8 o'clock tonight, four updates today!
