The Jie people , who had formed the Later Zhao Dynasty , did not accept Ran Min ' s rule and rose against him , and they were joined by many other Wu Hu nations . The resulting war was a decisive victory for Ran Min , who then proceeded to issue his famous " extermination order " , which resulted in the extermination of virtually all of the Jie and most of the Wu Hu . Background . By 350 , struggles within the Jie Later Zhao regime had resulted in the benefit of Ran Min , who then took over the regime and massacred the entire Shi family , who ruled Later Zhao , with the exception of one cousin of Shi Jian , the last emperor of Later Zhao , who led an uprising against him , beginning the Wei – Jie war . Course of the war . Outbreak of the war . Shi Jian ' s cousin , Shi Zhi , had been a Later Zhao general at Xiangguo . When he heard that Ran Min had massacred the Shi family and declared himself emperor , Shi Zhi rebelled against Ran Min . He was quickly joined by several other Later Zhao border armies , mostly composed of Jie soldiers and who despised Ran Min ' s rule . Extermination of the Wu Hu . When he heard of the Jie revolt against him , Ran Min issued his famous " extermination order " , in which he called on the Chinese to kill all the Wu Hu who had conquered them half a century earlier . The effect was immense ; some 200 , 000 Jie were killed in Yecheng ( the Wei capital ) in a few days , and brutal fighting broke out between Chinese and Wu Hu throughout North China . Battle of Xiangguo . Meanwhile , Ran Min ' s army met the main rebel forces under Shi Zhi and defeated them at the Battle of Yecheng . In spring 351 , Ran Min besieged Shi Zhi ' s capital Xiangguo . Shi Zhi sought aid from Former Yan ' s prince Murong Jun and was able to deal Ran a major defeat . At this time , the Xiongnu soldiers in Yecheng rebelled , captured his son Ran Yin , and surrendered to Shi Zhi , who executed Ran Yin . Ran Min was thought to be dead , but when he appeared in Yecheng , the city was calmed . Shi Zhi had his general Liu Xian ( 劉顯 ) besiege Yecheng , but Ran Min defeated Liu in battle and awed him so much that Liu agreed that once he returned to Xiangguo , he would kill Shi Zhi and surrender . He did so and sent Shi Zhi ' s head to Ran Min , and Ran Min had Shi Zhi ' s head be burned on a busy street in Yecheng . Later Zhao was at its final end . The city of Xiangguo was burned , and its population moved to Yecheng . End of the war . Following the victory at Xiangguo , Ran Min ' s forces proceeded northwards and defeated two Later Zhao border armies . Wherever he captured territory from the rebels , Ran Min ' s forces massacred any Wu Hu living there , burying them in large pits . Some 100 , 000 were reputedly killed in this way . Thousands of Wu Hu fled China or were killed . The Jie were particularly hard hit ; they were virtually completely wiped out .
Breach and clear Breach and Clear is a tactical name for a common room clearing method . It is used when capturing a room or area with guards , enemies , or hostile civilians near the entrances to the area .

Amédée Mouchez Amédée Ernest Barthélemy Mouchez ( 24 August 1821 – 29 June 1892 ) was a French naval officer who became director of the Paris Observatory and launched the ill - fated " Carte du Ciel " project in 1887 . Life . Born in Madrid , Spain , Mouchez embarked on a career in the French Navy as an ensign in 1843 . This was a period of relative international maritime peace and much of the navy ' s activities were dedicated to exploration and discovery . Mouchez was initially occupied on hydrographic studies along the coasts of Korea , China and South America , penetrating 320 km up the Paraguay River and exploring the Abrolhos Islands . He improved the practice of surveying at sea , adapting terrestrial instruments for naval use , and was especially concerned with the problems of determining longitude . He developed the use of the theodolite and meridian telescope to improve the error in establishing longitude from around 30 ″ to 3 - 4 ″ . Attaining the rank of post captain in 1868 , he embarked on a series of expeditions to chart the coast of Algeria . However , in 1870 , during the Franco - Prussian War , he was called upon to make an heroic defence of the port of Le Havre . Returning to his Algerian survey , he brought it to a conclusion in 1873 , when he was elected to the Bureau des Longitudes and , in the following year , was sponsored by the " Académie des sciences " to observe the transit of Venus from St . Paul Island in the Indian Ocean . On 9 December he made a sequence of superb photographic plates of the event .

Mouchez set about a programme of reconstruction but failed to persuade the government to fund a new observatory outside the centre of Paris . In 1887 , he collaborated with Sir David Gill to host an international astronomical conference in Paris . The principal outcome of the conference was a multi - national project to compile and index a photographic atlas of the heavens , the " Carte du Ciel " . The project consumed massive effort over several decades before it was rendered obsolete by modern astronomical methods . Mouchez died in Wissous , Seine - et - Oise .

Down the throat Down the throat typically refers to a term used by United States Submariners in World War II , in reference to a type of torpedo attack angle used usually against attacking destroyers or anti - submarine craft . A " down the throat " shot would be any shot in which the target craft was presenting a 0 - degree bow angle ( AOB ) , or simply put , it was heading straight toward the submarine . These were extremely difficult setups from which to launch torpedoes , and usually it was only the skilled or desperate boat skippers who attempted such attacks . Further complications with the " down the throat " shot were the gyroscope issues that plagued US torpedoes , as well as the rapidly diminishing range of the target that could prevent arming of the torpedo . It was first used by under the command of Lieutenant Commander Lew Parks during the boat ' s first war patrol , although it did not hit . The technique is unlikely to be used again , since modern guided torpedoes usually are launched from an angled tube on the side of the submarine , since the bow is needed for a sonar dome . During its last patrol , sank an attacking Japanese destroyer with such a shot . " Harder " s captain , Cdr . S . D . " Sam " Dealey , was awarded a posthumous Medal of Honor for the patrol . Another Medal of Honor was awarded to the captain of , Lawson P . " Red " Ramage for a similar shot on a patrol that returned .
