C3395 The Great Escape of Yili (1/2)
The main force of the Lake Barkish was out in full strength. In one night, they captured eighteen cities, including Ka Puqiagai. The thirty-six kulun senile stroke s were willing to die rather than lower themselves to burn the entire army's pasture.
This news quickly spread through the Ivu River Valley as if it had grown wings.
The Ivu River Valley had a total of 27 Ku Lun's, but they were currently filled with over 300 sick and old people, the rest had all lost their lives due to Yaqub's riot, and the Qing dynasty had yet to replenish any new troops.
It was impossible for them to do the same as Ka Puqiagai and left only the twenty-seven senile stroke s, half of the three hundred people would be placed in the Huiyuan City, the remaining veterans at the other stations could only be regarded as a symbol of national image.
It was impossible to take revenge with such strength, but Russian had also underestimated the determination of the Chinese. Ka Puqiagai's fire had completely ignited the anger of the older soldiers.
We are very old, we are very weak, we don't even have a single fireball in our hands!
But we won't betray our ancestors either. Hu Laosan and the rest can even sacrifice their lives for our country, what else is there to be reluctant about!
All the Kurun military stations that had received the news began to move. They wrapped the last of the taxes and tied them to the caravan and commissioned reliable herders and caravans to send them to the tower city.
The General Yili was located in the tower city. Although the road ahead was difficult and the mountain was the most important, no matter how difficult it was, these military assets could not be left for the Russian.
He had taken everything he could and burned everything he couldn't take!
These veterans burned the winter grass and grain, filled the well with water, and even hid the most precious household register before the arrival of the Sakyamuni.
Since ancient times, the household register had always been an important tool for ruling a region. It was even a symbol of legitimacy, and even its importance was greater than the official seal.
With an household register, you will have the ability to penetrate the basic-first line. Even after the war, you will still be able to distinguish between the ownership of the houses and the grass fields on this piece of land.
This was a very critical factor in maintaining order in society. It was also an important evidence of the trust of tens of thousands of people!
With the household register, the administrative power would be able to penetrate deeper into the people. This kind of treasure was slowly amassed over a period of decades by these local officials. It had already gained a very high reputation among the herdsmen.
There were many records that could be traced back to the time of the dryad. At this time, if a little dispute broke out among the herdsmen, they would usually find their own evidence from the household register.
Moreover, there were very few people in nomadic peoples who recorded their own family tree. They did not remember anything above the third generation, but there were still some records in the household register.
The two herdsmen's homes clashed. Perhaps with the register, they would suddenly realize that we used to be a family five generations ago!
This kind of literature truly reduces many contradictions and conflicts, and is indeed a powerful tool of administration!
Since it was a treasure, he wouldn't keep it for the Russian. He would bury it and wait for Wang Shi to come back to him in the future.
Those places of burial were sent to the Tower City along with the taxes!
The entire Ivu River Valley was in chaos, all the towns were surrounded by beacons of war, either the Russian was killing people or robbing local people were burning their property.
The fire around the Kulun military station became even more intense. The retreating senile stroke had basically destroyed everything, not even a single feather was left for Russian.
Everyone began to flee towards the east with their families. Everyone knew that the Ivu River Valley would not be able to guard against these robbers, so they could only head towards the north, risking their lives to reach the entrance of Mount Ala in the winter.
It was hard to describe this tragic escape, in the eyes of the Expedition, it was as tragic as hell!
Many old people and children fell on the ground and couldn't get back up. The temperature during the day was around -10 degrees Celsius, but during the night, the temperature dropped to -20 or 30 degrees Celsius.
