Chapter 17 Section VI

It is impossible to retreat quickly, because we have to uproot the counting house, catch up with the cattle and sheep, and take the wives and children with us.The calls of cattle and sheep became chaotic.Before going far, people and livestock stopped, looking back at the checkpoint made of stone and wood on Rina Mountain, reluctantly.First, the cattle and sheep turned back. They seemed to care more about the loss of territory than humans, and they were even less willing to leave this place they had never left.A male yak named Gang Zhong seemed to know why he had to leave his homeland. He broke into the ranks of the Crusaders and bumped him from left to right. Several British soldiers were knocked to the ground by him.

gunshots.Colonel Galan personally shot and killed the spiritual male yak Gang Zhong. All the bulls were in a hurry, and rushed to the Crusaders, and they jumped at anyone they saw.Intensive gunshots rang out, and many bulls fell to the ground. The Tibetans watching from a distance screamed.Guo Mu rushed over first, and Ouzhu Jiaben followed behind.Gunshots, this is a warning from the British: come over and kill you.Xiama Ruben understood, rushed forward and hugged Guomu.When Guo Mu stopped running, Ouzhu Jiaben also stopped.The Tibetans stood in grief and indignation, looking at the checkpoint that had been taken away—the Rina Pass where they had been grazing, eating, drinking, making love, and guarding. They shed tears when they saw the dead yaks scattered about.There were miserable cries everywhere.The hearts of Tibetans are suddenly filled with such questions: Lord Buddha, why are these foreigners walking around with guns and guns instead of relying on reason?

Under the threat of foreign guns and cannons, the Tibetans really left this time. They used horses to carry the Tibetan soldier who was killed by the British army.The dead are to be buried in the sky, and they must go to a place where lamas chant scriptures for salvation.But the dead yaks could not be carried away. They will become the breakfast, lunch and dinner of the British.When Tibetans think of these things, their hearts are broken with pain.Those yaks are life companions and are used to carry salt and barley from the rear. They never thought that they should kill and cook meat to eat.

Guomu sang folk songs that he could sing while walking and working. This person who can't talk around detours, sang folk songs but detoured farther than anyone else.Maybe it's enough to sing folk songs and go around, so I don't have to go around when talking. God, which one is more merciful, a snake or a wolf? God says wolves are more merciful. God, why do you say that the wolf is more merciful? There is no merciful wolf in the world, It's like a foreign country without a good God. To ask which in the world is more compassionate, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is more compassionate.

Gom replaced sadness and anger with sarcasm, singing along the way.The man-falcon from the Himalayas came following the sound, and accompanied Gomu's farewell with its mournful cry.The blood that covered the rocks began to flow, and the purple color of Rina Mountain was more and more wantonly staining the pure blue sky of Tibet. Someone came riding from the direction of Longtu Mountain and shouted: "It's fighting, Longtu Mountain is fighting." Xiama Ruben thought of Pastor Mahon and his guards, and thought that the British had violated the agreement and rushed to Longtu Mountain so quickly.He exclaimed, "Quickly, leave your wives and children behind, your cattle and herds, and the men charge forward!"

It was a sad beginning day in spring.From this day on, the British began their march on Tibet.But the official history does not record this day, because the time from the occupation of Rina Mountain to the attack on Longtu Mountain is very short, and the interval cannot be seen after a long time; also because Rina Mountain is only 32 kilometers away from Longtu Mountain, it is impossible to see it on the map. distance.When official historians were sloppy, they included Mount Rina in Mount Longtu.Besides, Rina Mountain did not shed blood. One Tibetan soldier died, and one Crusader was injured, and neither of them was an officer. For a war, it is basically negligible.As for the dead yaks, they cannot be counted in the number of casualties at all.However, this "Holy History" novel that originated in the mountains must remember them. There is no test of what the wounded British soldiers were called: the dead Tibetan soldiers were called: Yancuo Sandan.If he hadn't been the first to devote himself, no one would have known that a man with this name had ever romped.

Two days later, Yancuosandan was sent to Chunpi.There is a celestial burial platform and a lama who specializes in funerals. Chunpi's eagles are all here.They know that from now on, they must eat meat without any slack, and then fly in the air to digest it quickly, otherwise they will not be able to eat it.They are loyal to their duties and understand the meaning of those mulberry smoke, human roars, sutra sounds, and drum beeps.Understand people's expectations better: If the corpse is not eaten clean, it means that there is no good reincarnation.They don't want to disappoint people, so they come not only to satisfy their hunger, but also come even if they are full, grab food and drink sacredly and solemnly, and then send their spirits away as far as possible.They know from the eager look of man that the higher they fly the more hope there is for the souls of the dead.

It is said that the soul of Yancuo Sandan, the first person to die defending Tibet, was sent to Tushita Heavenly Palace, the pure land of the future Buddha Maitreya.
