Six hundred and fiftieth third fire
On the windy and snowy continent, a slightly arched small snow pack moved strangely.
After a while, bunches of white snow slowly rose up. Finally, under the influence of the strong wind, they were chased away without a trace, leaving a narrow black hole.
In the heavy snow, an extremely small figure crawled out of the hole.
Bi Fang's body was covered with scattered snowflakes. These snowflakes were blown away by the cold wind like a steel knife, but new snowflakes flew in, one after another.
Even if it falls on the bare eyebrows, there is no sign of melting, and it is surprisingly cold.
Bi Fang couldn't help but huddle up. The current temperature was conservatively estimated to be -50 degrees below zero. It was a terrifying temperature where urine could freeze together on the spot. It was frightening.
Looking at the heavy snow around them, everyone in the live broadcast room was at a loss. They subconsciously shrank their hands and feet, as if the white cold wind had frozen them through the screen.
Checking again whether the rope around his ankle was loose, Bi Fang began to move forward with difficulty.
At this time, the arctic cold winds and blizzards made it extremely difficult for people to move forward in the ice and snow wilderness. Especially for Bi Fang, who had only eaten some moss for the past four days, he could clearly feel that his body condition was declining.
Moss provides too little heat.
"In 1902, after the "Three Kingdoms Intervention and Return to Liao Dynasty" incident, Japan hated Russia so much that it prepared for ten years and was gearing up for a big fight with the Tsarist Russian army in Northeast China."
"However, the weather in Northeast China was cold, and the Japanese army seriously lacked combat experience in cold areas, so they chose Aomori Prefecture, which has a climate close to that of Northeast China, as a training ground. As a result, one of the world's largest mountain fatalities occurred: the fatal march in the snow on Mount Hakkoda."
Although he was shivering from the cold, Bifang began to explain a famous snowstorm event with a slight trembling voice while rummaging through the snow.
Hakkoda Mountain is composed of a series of volcanoes in the central part of Aomori Prefecture. It is covered with forests, swamps and wetlands, and is deserted. In the winter, it is freezing and snowy, and no one except experienced local hunters dares to cross it.
They lacked experience and cold-proof equipment, but the Japanese army at that time was extremely confident.
What a coincidence that the day of departure was January 23, 1902, the coldest day in Japan.
On the first day, the team marched up the mountain singing military songs and camped as planned.
The problem occurred the next day.
The weather suddenly changed early in the morning, with violent storms and snow, and the temperature dropped sharply to below minus 20 degrees Celsius. Shortly after setting off, officers and soldiers suffered frostbite one after another, and the march was extremely slow. The officers wanted to return, but the sad thing was: heavy snow blocked the way back.
, can't find the way at all.
In the snow-capped mountains in the harsh winter, this group of Japanese lost their way.
But they were so confident when they set out, how could this little bit of wind and snow overwhelm the fearless Japanese samurai?
Keep marching! Not only that, the leader also ordered to march all night to make up for the lost time.
During the difficult march, a lieutenant fainted and froze to death, becoming the first victim.
That night, the team found a leeward spot and dug out snow to camp.
At this time, all the food was frozen and inedible, and the clothes were frozen and they could only urinate and urinate on their bodies. On the morning of the third day, many people never got up again.
Along the way, people kept falling down and freezing to death.
The severe cold made people crazy. Some people kept shouting "Let's jump off the cliff", some shouted "Let's do rafting", and then they went crazy and chopped down trees with bayonets.
By the fourth day, only 40 people were left alive.
On the fifth day, the officer leading the team finally came to his senses and issued the final order, allowing those who were able to escape and seek rescue, and then froze to death.
"A team leader named Goto Fusanosuke was frozen on the escape route and struggled to stand on the verge of death. Fortunately, he was discovered by the rescue team and saved his life. Later, he saw off his hands and feet and lived for another 22 years.
Year."
"In the following week, the rescue team successively found a large number of corpses of the marching party, and there were only a dozen survivors."
"A team of 210 people stayed on the mountain for a total of 11 days. In the end, only 11 people survived and 199 people died."
"And the temperature at that time was actually not even 25 degrees below zero."
Many foreign audiences were shocked when they heard this.
Honshu Island?
Bi Fang's last live broadcast was there, and many people are still impressed by it.
A snowstorm with less than 30 degrees below zero caused a mortality rate of more than 95%?
So now it's 50 degrees below zero, can you still survive?
Just when many netizens from across the ocean were preparing to post comments expressing sympathy, they were surprised to find that Chinese netizens seemed to be celebrating something, and they could not understand the strange comments.
Although there is a built-in barrage translation provided by the system, it is still not quite right in many cases, and it is difficult to understand without relevant understanding.
The lyrics of "Good Luck Comes" seem strange to many netizens who don't understand it, as if...very festive.
Bi Fang coughed twice. The example he gave was indeed world-famous. He happened to have been to Japan not long ago and just remembered it.
With the Thought Palace, many memories are too convenient to retrieve, and there is no other meaning in them.
Bi Fang used a homemade shovel to dig through the dry and hard snow, trying to find some remaining dead branches or other things, but unfortunately there was none.
The heavy snow blurred the distance, and Bifang couldn't even see the end of the rope when he turned around. Naturally, he couldn't judge the distance and could only continue to caress.
The length of the rope is more than 40 meters, which means that Bifang's radius of action is only 40 meters. This size may seem small, but it is still more than 5,000 square meters.
According to what Bi Fang saw last night, these were the dead shrubs he was looking for.
Greenland is not a desert...
Standing up, Bi Fang recalled the memory of last night, and based on the vague positional relationship, he dug through the thick layer of snow that looked like ice crystals.
After digging half a meter deep, just when Bifangdu began to wonder if he had remembered it wrong, finally, some brown things squeezed out the pure white dry snow, revealing its true appearance.
At first, the audience thought they had dug up soil, but upon closer inspection, they discovered that they were actually thick shrubs, but they were completely dead.
【Can this thing be eaten?】
"Of course not." Bifang dug out all the bushes and stuffed them into his backpack, "But just because it can't be eaten doesn't mean it's useless. We can use it to make fire."
The more the audience talked, the more confused they became.
Make a fire?
How to give birth?
Looking at the heavy snow all around, can a fire catch fire in such a big storm?
Of course it's impossible. The wind is so strong that even the burning alcohol can blow it out. You have to take it back and burn it in a cave.
Fire is the most primitive way for humans to keep warm.
[Damn it, if you light a fire in a snow cave, won’t it burn the house?!!]
