January 1943, just the beginning of the year. Hitler's Nazi forces and Joseph Stalin's Red Army are fighting for control of oil fields in the Caucasus region of the Soviet Union. The Battle of Stalingrad, which lasted for four months, has already turned into the biggest and bloodiest war in human history. With the fall of Stalingrad, billions of barrels of oil would fall into the hands of the German Nazi forces, and their spread from the Caucasus to the Middle East would be a matter of time. In a word, it will be almost impossible to stop the Nazi forces.

Joseph Stalin is walking restlessly with a pipe in his hand, his line of thought is clear on his forehead. For more than a year and a half, the Red Army has had no success, except for a few isolated incidents against the Nazi forces. The Germans are rapidly advancing, occupying city after city. Billions of Russians are being taken to concentration camps to be killed as subhumans. Stalin, a staunch atheist, went against his character and made a decision, ordering "OT" to be returned with due respect.

Turning counterclockwise, I went back another year and a half, in mid-1941. Mikhail Gerasimov, a well-known Russian forensic anthropologist, arrived in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, then part of the Soviet Union, at Stalin's behest, to bury the remains of Timur Long, a 14th-century World War II warlord. Like all other anthropologists, Mikhail Gerasimov's job is to rescue his face from the human skull. He was incredibly skilled at this task, even from the skull of the famous Russian Tsar Ivan the Terrible, he created a statue of what he looked like in real life. For some strange reason, Stalin was curious to see what Timurlang looked like in real life, most likely because he was as bloodthirsty as he was.

However, Gerasimov arrived at Gur-i-Amir, Timur Long's tomb, with his party. It is the tomb of other princes of the Timurid Empire, including Timur Long.

Taimurlang is lying in the middle of several tombs. Without delay, Gerasimov began work, and under his direction, excavations began to remove the remains of Timur Long. But the same, what is written in the tomb of Timur!

The day I wake up, the whole world will shake

Although everyone was a little shocked to read this article, the scientific Russian anthropologist Gerasimov laughed at this warning. Stalin's stern directive hangs over his head: "What's to be feared about the threat of a foolish Tatar king, Tuktak, some 600 years ago? You can't return to Moscow without the remains." Gerasimov again ordered his team to continue working.

After digging for a while, the coffin of Timur Long came out slowly. Without delay, Gerasimov immediately opened the coffin. As soon as the basket was opened, a strange unfamiliar smell filled the place. Gerasimov and his team are a little scared again, so is that warning message really spreading like a curse from the coffin like a Pandora's box? That's when it dawned on me that the smell of digging Gerasimov's old tomb was nothing new. In ancient times, the corpses of kings were preserved with camphor, roses, dyes, etc., a mixture of which must have given off this strange smell.

Gerasimov became accustomed, this time paying attention to see what was inside the coffin. Lying there is the skeleton of one of the cruelest rulers in history whose sword-wielding death has killed millions of people in an area of millions of square kilometers stretching from Russia to India. Timur Long would destroy city after city to spread the cold feeling in the chest of the enemy. The mighty Turkish-Mars ruler used to build skyscrapers outside the city gates with the skulls of the people of the city who rebelled against him. The world-shaking emperor of the Middle Ages proudly mentions all this in his autobiography "Tuzuke Taimur".

But what remains today is the remains of Timur Long. Some broken bones are scattered all over the coffin in a powerless, frozen manner. There is no difference between Amir and Fakir at the end of two days of worldliness. Everyone will be cut off from eternity by falling into a corner of the earth in such a helpless frozen way.

Gerasimov's mind became overwhelmed with an unknown sorrow, at the same time I know why he felt that he did not do the job well. Still, Gerasimov continued his work, imagining all this with a weak mind, and slowly began to pull the skeletons out of the coffin. At that moment, the second warning message written on the coffin fell in his eyes

The one who dug my grave threw a war winner more terrible than me

Gerasimov didn't care as much as before, he slowly pulled the bones out of the coffin and arranged them. The prevailing notion about Timur Long was that he was short but it turned out that was not true. His height was 5 feet 8 inches which was very tall for the people of that time especially for the people of Mongol nation. He also noticed that there were signs of deep wounds on Timur Long's right leg. So the idea that he was a hoax is not the least bit false. Enough then, Gerasimov packed up and headed for Moscow. The day was June 19, 1941.

Three days later, Gerasimov was working in his laboratory. At that time the news came that the Nazi forces had attacked Russia with about 40 million troops. The largest military offensive in the history of the world, called "Operation Barbarossa", surpassed the Mongols' invasion of Japan. Gerasimov remembered the warning message written on the tomb of Timur Long. But is that curse really true or is it just a coincidence? Her chest trembled with unknown apprehension. Gradually the news spread throughout Russia, just three days after destroying the peace at the tomb of Timur Long, Russia invaded a "more terrible" war winner.

Stalin is not credible. He instructed Gerasimov to quickly make his face out of Timur's skull. The Red Army, on the other hand, began to fight the Germans without much success. The Germans rushed towards Moscow in a storm. Under Stalin's direction, Gerasimov forgot all this and continued his work. Gradually, he skillfully made the face of Taimur Long. Nearly 500 years later, the world saw the thunderous face of Emir of Uzbekistan Taimur Long again.

The war is still in full swing. In the Battle of Moscow, the Russians fought to the death with the help of inclement weather, temporarily repelling the Germans and launching counter-attacks on the Germans in an attempt to repel them. The Nazi forces were not defeated, but they attacked the city of Stalingrad to occupy the Caucasus, and another deadly battle broke out between the Red Army and Hitler's forces. At the age of four months, Stalin decided to return the remains of Timur Long to his grave. At Stalin's behest, Timur's remains were returned to Uzbekistan for burial. In the hope that the curse would be cut off if Taimur Long was buried in a full Islamic manner. It took him a month to complete his burial in Uzbekistan.

Believe it or not, in just over an hour the good news came from Stalingrad that the Germans had finally surrendered to the bloody five-month war. The Caucasus is protected, the Sixth Army of the Nazi forces has been overthrown, their field marshals captured by the Russians. Surprisingly, the fate of the Russians, who had been beaten by the Germans for a year and a half, seemed to change completely in this one incident. At the turn of World War II, the Russians began to recapture the occupied territories one by one. Over the next two years, the victorious Russians entered Berlin, and Hitler was forced to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head, ending the horrors of the long six-year World War II that swept across Europe.
But this success of the Russians did not come until months after they were oppressed by the Nazis. Hitler's attacks are thought to have killed about 2 million Russians, surpassing the 1 million killed by Timur Long. Timur Long was the highest percentage killer in the history of the world, he alone killed 5 percent of the world's people.
Although he could not surpass Timur Long in assassination rate and success, Hitler calmed down only when the prophecy written in Timur's tomb came true. Whether it is the strangest and most horrific coincidence in human history or a real curse, this story of Timur Long is an unsolved historical fact.
