Chapter 1153: Luo Army's Prisoners of War in the Mine (2)

After a while, Brimayo was carried out by the soldiers.

This originally strong officer has been stripped of only his military pants at the moment, his upper body is exposed, and his spirit is sluggish.

When he was viciously still on the ground, the blackened whip marks on his back caused Yang Mingzhi great discomfort.

"Oops! Are you going to beat this man to death?! How do I think this man is dead?! ”

Joshua immediately came forward to explain: "Comrade Commander! It's not what you think, this person is still alive! As for why he is sluggish, because we haven't eaten since last night. ”

"Why? Are you going to starve him?! ”

"It's punishment! This man is plotting an escape, and that's more than 500 prisoners of war! Whether they succeed or not, it is a very bad outcome! So ......"

"So you beat him wantonly and deliberately starved him?" Yang Mingzhi shook his head: "I think, this is no longer a simple punishment, but a vent of anger." Then, he gave Joshua a blank look: "I know that you have sacrificed many of your comrades in battle, but you should destroy the enemy on the battlefield, not against the prisoners of war!" ”

"Yes! You're talking about it! ”

"Then don't bother, get some food and feed him, and I'll have to talk to him when he wakes up."

So, these sturdy female soldiers easily picked up the languishing Brimayo and took it to the pavilion on the side......

Yang Mingzhi and Yevlov, on the other hand, stood aside and smoked again.

"The pressure on the officers and soldiers here is indeed very great! If those Romanians really decided to flee, our troops would have had to shoot. They will never be able to escape, and will eventually turn into a pile of corpses. As our battalion commander said, in any case, it will be a bad result. Yevlov spat out a string of smoke rings in concern. No wonder the female soldiers were suspicious of a group of elderly people working as armed overseers. ”

"Let's talk about these enemies, you saw that person just now! Yevlov, you know? At the beginning, I persuaded them to surrender, and I promised them that their lives would be guaranteed, and at most I forced them to farm. I promised them that if they lay down their arms and cooperate with our army, they would live until after the war. But they were sent to the mine, which was not what I expected. ”

"Forget it! You are an officer of the Red Army, and you don't have to feel guilty about these invaders. If they do not come to our country to kill, why should they bear such sin? Even if they were all shot, they deserved it. I don't think there's anything wrong with letting them mine, and to be honest, if I had been in command of the battle, I would have tricked them into surrendering and then they would all be shot. In this way, I will never have to worry about the prisoners of war rioting and escaping, let alone consuming food to feed them. ”

Yang Mingzhi grinned, he knew that this Yevlov would definitely do this, he had already done it many times!

Brimayo was already injured, but fortunately the injuries were minor. Now his injuries are quite serious, Yang Mingzhi never expected that this prisoner of war officer should have received a certain amount of courtesy, but now he is dying of being beaten.

As the man regained his spirits while eating potatoes, Joshua also explained why Brimaeu became the way he was.

It turned out that these Luo prisoners of war were sent to the mine as soon as possible, and the biggest reason was that the arsenal needed more sulfur to produce weapons. Since the original supply of sulfur miners could no longer meet the needs of the arsenal, Rigushkoff reported to Salinchkin that he could find a way to increase the supply of ore.

It was a critical period of fighting, and the arsenal's production capacity was nearly doubled, which was equivalent to doubling the demand for ore.

Just when Salinchkin and Lyudbalev were planning to organize Minfu to mine, good news came. The front-line fighters inflicted heavy losses on the Romanian army, capturing a battalion of the enemy, and these prisoners of war quickly turned into miners.

Romanians are very dissatisfied with the fact that they have become miners, so on the first day of work, almost all of them are passive and slacking off. These people were even more surprised that there was a large group of scrawny Germans in the huge mine.

In their impression, the German soldiers were fat and strong, and the Germans ate the best military rations, and they had beef to eat at every meal, and they could even drink wine.

Today, the formidable German soldiers were almost walking skeletons, digging through yellow stones and wearing gas masks, as if this was hell. Although you don't know how long the Germans have been here, after a little thought, the Romanians believe that if they stay here to mine, they will be like this in a short time, and eventually, after a few months, they will die of exhaustion.

The helpless Romanians discovered that it was not Soviet soldiers who supervised their work, but armed Russian civilians. These old guys with huge beards are full of Russian swear words. The vast number of Romanian soldiers have been in the Soviet Union for a year, and each of them can understand a little Russian.

They knew that the overseers were muttering bad words, especially the threat that when the Soviets counterattacked Romania, they would also kill Romanians in a frenzy to avenge their hatred.

The vast number of Luo prisoners of war were very frightened and angry about this, but the only weapons in their hands were rudimentary draft axes, and even worse, they were also grouped into a group of ten, each with his feet strung together by hemp rope.

And what about the Soviet army? They set up a large number of machine gun forts on the mine, and even suddenly shot into the sky several times a day, proving that the guns were full of real bullets with force deterrence.

In this state, there is no way to escape! Especially after the first day of work, they were ordered to take off their clothes, and the bayonets of the overseers drove a herd of pigs into the hot springs to wash themselves. At night's rest, the rudimentary barracks were locked, and outside the barracks, their guards did not rest all night!

The Luo prisoners of war experienced too many miracles in one day, and the Germans, who had originally wanted to build a new Germany, were now tamed by a group of mules and horses who could only work without brains.

During the day, the Romanian prisoners of war resisted the mistreatment of them with passive sabotage, and at night, they desperately vented their grievances in the barracks, which also provoked the anger of the guards.

Thus, after the triumph of the Soviets, Joshua's troops returned to the mines, and they were warned by the armed overseers that the Romanians had been plotting something every night, and that there was no need to doubt what was being plotted.

"We are all convinced that these Romanians are not going to mine well at all! Among the many prisoners of war, the Ukrainian traitors were the most active, because they were promised that they would be exempted from the death penalty after the war was won. The Germans were also treated a little better, and they were more willing to cooperate, and there was no trouble for a month. The most disobedient are the Romanians! We have no choice but to whip the officer who planned the escape, and maybe by doing so, they can become honest. ”

After Qiao Shuya's explanation, Yang Mingzhi also understood the necessity of their current measures. He also learned that it is debatable whether the Luo prisoners of war were really planning to escape. It's just that their barracks are noisy every night, and who can not suspect that they are not planning an escape?!

He thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I'll have to ask that person myself later. If these people really plan to escape, I think some of them can be executed to deter the rest. ”
