《Empire of the Ring》Chapter 776: Uyghur’s Pain (2)
Advertisement
Kazakh intelligence agents finally collected tangible evidence in Uyghur.
They confirmed human flesh and organ trafficking dealings.
As for the organ harvesting and trafficking, a Chinese criminal organization was involved, but what was funny was that the Chinese government had been supporting it.
Not only that, but there had also been cases where Chinese rich people had bought pretty Uyghur virgins as their trophies.
Aside from what rich people did, on top of frequent kidnapping, women imprisoned in political prisoner camps were frequently siphoned off and sold as sex slaves or prostitutes.
Every year in China, about 300,000 people waited for an organ transplant surgery, and because legal organ transplant donors were only about several thousands of people, illegal organ trafficking crimes by criminal organizations were rampant.
Kazakh intelligence agents could confirm the connection between food manufacturers and criminal organizations.
When the criminal organization harvested Uyghur prisoners' organs and passed the flesh to food manufacturers, it was processed as human meat and sold to all regions of China.
It would not make sense if the Chinese government was not aware of these crimes when the political prisoners continuously disappeared in a brazen manner.
Anywhere there was a money transaction, a representative of the communist government was there.
"It's becoming worse. On top of organ trafficking, they are kidnapping Uyghur girls? What b*st*rds…"
Youngho could not continue talking when he heard the findings of the intelligence investigation from Jong-il.
He knew that the Chinese government had collected DNA samples and fingerprints from the Uyghurs and collected biometric information such as iris and voice information, and wondered if all those efforts were for this.
"There are not many Uyghurs crossing the border anymore. The Chinese government is arresting all attempted-defectors and sending them to prison."
"I don't know why the Uyghurs are still silent. Don't they have to at least protest?"
"What can they do when the whole region of Uyghur is a prisoner camp? In cities, a watch post is installed every 500 meters and they inspect people's identification cards even when they enter traditional markets."
Xinjiang Uygur was the world's most heavily guarded area.
The Chinese government introduced data collection and surveillance technology based on advanced information and communication technology, closely monitoring every move of the residents.
Any Uyghurs were regarded as potential terrorists or anti-state forces.
The government said that it had no choice but to monitor Uyghur militants because they were linked to Islamic extremist groups.
Thus, although the political prisoner camp was called a vocational training program, Uyghurs trapped there were reportedly forced to learn Chinese and receive brainwashing education close to mental reform.

"Recently, the Egyptian government has also deployed Uyghur students studying in the country. I think the Chinese government is very determined."
Under pressure from the Chinese government, the Egyptian government was forcing Uyghurs to leave the country although they were the same Muslim people.
"What? So what did you do about that?"
"The Uyghurs are Chinese citizens, so what can we do?"
Kazakhstan should prevent the repatriation of the Uyghurs to China by informing the special nature of Uyghur because the students who were forcibly repatriated would surely be sent to the camps.
"We should sternly protest against the Egyptian government, saying that they are Chinese nationals but are no different from the people of Kazakhstan. Warn them if they continue to banish the Uyghurs, we won't stand still. Notify the Egyptian ambassador in Kazakhstan."
"That's not the problem. My source says that these days in Uyghur, all government officials in the region are staying at Uyghur families for a week, forcing them to learn communist ideology."
"Oh, jeez… Why does the Chinese government hate the Uyghurs so much?"
"Over ten million Han Chinese have moved to Uyghur. Considering it is the only region where the Han people moved in on such a large scale, I assume they are afraid of the Uyghurs."
"This is ridiculous. Could it be that China is pressing this with the intention of recapturing Kashgar?"
"..."
When asked by Youngho, Park Jong-il looked puzzled.
It seemed that he could not find the connection between the pressure of the Uyghur mainland and the recapture of Kashgar.
"I'm saying, don't you think the Chinese government is pressuring the Uyghurs in Kashgar to give up its independence to save the people of Xinjiang Uyghur?"
"Have you been reading fantasy novels lately? That's nonsense."
"What's nonsense about it?"
"The pressuring of Uyghur is not new. It has nothing to do with Kashgar."
Not being able to let go of his thoughts, Youngho struggled for a long time.
"Let's think about it."
"The recapture of Kashgar is what it is, and the Uyghur extermination policy has not changed. What if it's connected? We're already thinking of freeing the whole Uyghur anyway."
Park Jong-il was right, but Youngho could not agree.
"Most of the Uyghurs in Kashgar would have relatives in the Uyghur mainland. Think about how the people of Kashgar would react if they knew what was going on in Uyghur."
***
Only human rights groups and the media around the world were making a fuss about the Chinese government's crackdown on Uyghurs, but governments of each country remained silent as if they had made a pact.

They were in a position to consider trade and diplomatic relations with China, so they feared worsening of the diplomatic relations with China.
In addition, knowing that taking part in defending human rights against a socialist country, would not solve anything, they had no reason to participate.
However, the situation in Uyghur was not getting out of the spotlight as civil organizations and media around the world criticized China day after day.
The Chinese government was still harshly criticizing Kazakhstan, insisting that it was creating a fraud against the world by fabricating the facts that did not exist.
"I can't help but laugh because I can't believe it although I didn't expect much."
Youngho was discussing China's situation with Prime Minister Kasim over tea.
He stopped by at Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan, on his way back to the royal territory after checking the border's condition.
"Your Highness, I think it's time to stir up the Uyghur militants and cause some confusion. If you want to keep Uyghur in the limelight, don't you think we should move the Uyghurs?"
"All the armed groups are in Kashgar and are being trained, so there is no right group to take the lead. And it will only have a negative impact because it will reverse the armed struggle to terrorism."
It would be great if the struggle for independence could be achieved through terrorism, but things in the world did not go that way.
Such an act conducted by the Uyghurs rather denounced them as an extremist group linked to the IS.
In fact, some countries saw the Kashgar government as a terrorist group.
"It's because I think the seeds of the Uyghurs will dry up if we leave them alone. Recently, groundless rumors have been circulating in Guangdong Province that Uyghur men are sexually harassing Han Chinese women, and national sentiment has exploded. Perhaps the Chinese government is stepping in and amplifying the rumors."
"I know that Uyghur men don't even care about Han women, but it's a terrible scheme."
Unlike mainland China, Uyghur had a similar gender ratio, so why would Uyghur men bother Han Chinese women?
It would make sense if it was the other way around.
The Chinese society had 70 million more men than women as a result of its one-child policy and preference for boys.
Unmarried Chinese men who were grown old as bachelors all their lives, and sexual assault had been a social problem due to those who had not found a mate.
Therefore, young Han Chinese people were looking abroad to find a bride.
Some poor Uyghur women were sold for money to the Han Chinese to marry, which upset the Uyghur society.
The beauty of Uyghur women with Western appearance was well-known in China.
Likewise, Uyghur men's masculine appearance was popular among Han Chinese women.
"We must make sure that the Chinese government pays for the human trafficking of Uyghur women and human flesh trade for negligence."
Youngho cares about the Uyghur issue because of his responsibility as the Duke of Kazakhstan, but Kasim's affection for Uyghur was special.
Like most Central Asians, many ethnic groups in Central Asia thought they had the same roots.
Perhaps that was why the Kazakh people were so sad that the Uyghurs were persecuted by the Chinese government.
"I agree with you, Prime Minister. I'll make sure they pay."
"Your Highness, I don't think we need to free the whole Uyghur area if we have an independence war. The eastern Uyghur region is already occupied by Han people, so it doesn't mean much to the Uyghurs. The Uyghurs cannot afford to manage such a huge territory and we cannot rule out the possibility that there could be a long-term war."
"There are Uyghurs living there, aren't they? And there are a lot of underground resources buried in the region, but do you want to give it all up?"
"The West alone is enough for the Uyghurs to live. And there are a lot more resources in the western region that borders us."
Kasim suggested to give up the eastern side that was mostly occupied by the Han Chinese people as it would lead to a long-term war.
He was right. It was most desirable to propose a ceasefire after occupying the areas where only Uyghurs were concentrated.
If a ceasefire was made through the mediation of the U.S. or Russia, China would accept it because two-thirds of Uyghur's territory would still remain in its territory, and the occupied area could be restored as much as possible if it waited for the right time.
If the war was stopped at that point, it would be a less burdensome war.
"The question is whether the Uyghurs will be convinced."
"They will. In fact, they don't have a problem living in the current Kashgar Autonomous Republic alone. However, the Uyghurs are also distributed in the Midwest, so if we just sort it out up to that region, we'll successfully establish a buffer zone against China."
He was right.
There was a cause to help the Uyghurs, but practically, Kazakhstan was helping them because it needed a buffer zone against China.
If Kasim did not remind him, he would have overdone it which could end up in a long-term war.

In the shadows, Ardalian rebels successfully unlock an ancient magical gate. Their desire? A soldier, immutable, unstoppable, and enslaved.

Trapped in a land of hostile magic and alien politics, the two of them must use their newfound powers to make alliances, stop their enemies, and ultimately reunite. However, something goes wrong. In this chaos, as the world begins to unravel in foul ways, something else stirs. Something else found its way through. Author's Note: I will update this story as often as I can. I am quite busy and write this during breaks at work. This is one of those goon-squad stories with a million characters, so "dizzying" might be a good way to describe the energy. Much of what builds up to the first arc happens in the first ten chapters, which are quite long. For that reason, if you have difficulty getting through the story, I understand, though things don't really start happening until Chapter 8-10.
