Who is the person who left the camp and said "I'm going out for a while" when the British Antarctic expedition members were injured?

1911214 Norwegian Roald Meng Sen conquered the south pole, and the exploration of the two poles began a great era. A month later, his British rival, robert scott, also reached the South Pole a month later. Unfortunately, however, on the way back, Scott and four people with him died of hunger and cold. At that time, they were only a few miles away from the next supply station.

Since then, Scott has become a legend and a hero symbol in the eyes of the British; The real winner, Meng Sen, is despised and despised. The same experience brings such a strong contrast. Perhaps, this realistic story also coincides with the law that heroes must die in most stories.

In the following, Norwegian astrologer Lars-Witting will analyze and expound the life, personality and achievements of these two legendary figures on the birth disc.

Scott's story

191265438+1October 17, Scott and his four colleagues stood sadly on the Antarctic continent. They have been walking for 80 days in extreme weather, just to find the tent left by Meng Sen a month ago. There is a letter to the king of Norway, and Scott promised Meng Sen to bring it back. Later generations mentioned this story, saying that this letter turned Scott from an Antarctic explorer into a small letter boy.

Scott and his five people prepared a lot of dogs and horses at first, but because no one was proficient in dog sledding, the horses soon froze to death, and they had to drag the heavy sledge for most of the distance by themselves. By mid-March, when they set up the sixth and last tent, the number had been reduced to three. Evans, who has the best physical strength, said goodbye to his teammates first because of malnutrition and fatigue. Then, the frostbite on Oates' foot continued to deteriorate, and the unbearable pain made him move more and more slowly. He doesn't want to drag down his teammates. So one day, he struggled to get up, pulled open the tent, turned to look at his companion and said, "I'll go out for a while and come back soon." After that, he disappeared in the vast snowstorm, and his body was never found by later generations.

However, severe physical exhaustion and extreme weather still claimed the lives of the other three. In the last days, Scott kept writing letters and keeping a diary. By this time, he had moved away from the desire for honor and success and became the leader of the expedition. Perhaps, because of this, in his letters, he has never been pessimistic, but recorded all the qualities about courage, belief and heroism.

Six months later, people found this tent and found the bodies of Scott and others lying peacefully in sleeping bags. Later, people made crosses out of sledges and stood in front of their graves.
