Secret cables from the United States embassy in Beijing have shown there was
no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square when China put down student pro-

The cables, obtained by WikiLeaks and released exclusively by The Daily

The battle between Panzer Group 1 and the Soviet mechanized corps was the
fiercest of the whole invasion, lasting a full four days. The Soviets fought
furiously and crews of German tank and anti-tank guns found to their horror
that the new Soviet T-34 tanks were almost immune to their weapons. The new

是youtube上的，还是wiki上的，无一不把他和他的军队形容为肆杀残暴的，其中有不
少血腥的描述，包括对敌人煮人砍头什么的。当然对敌军的残暴是任何一个军队都应该
做的，但是对老百姓的残暴呢？
历史上最残暴的一次应该是针对Khwarezmid Empire这个王国的，具体位置不知道在哪

死；其中有小部分居民试图逃难，成吉思汗还继续追杀，叫了两个小部队把剩下的人全
杀干净。不仅如此，还毁掉所有建筑，农田，甚至还把一条属于这个王国的河流给转个
道了，盖住了这个王国的原来地方，从地图上彻底抹去了这个王国的一切痕迹。
对待北部汉人也是很残暴的，事实上，成吉思汗最开始的几次胜仗都是在中原的土地上
打赢的，西夏，金，都一下子被干掉了。其中也包括试图利用黄河之水把整个西夏的首
