44. Chapter 44 The same level as Yamamoto Fifty-six
I have learned about the Iron Cross, in Germany in the thirties and forties, there were two categories, one is what we often call the Iron Cross, which is more ordinary, divided into two levels, and according to the different contributions, the ranks are also different. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoDuring World War II, this type of Iron Cross was widely awarded, but this does not mean that it has no value, it was just used by the Nazis to fool people!
The other category is called the Knight's Iron Cross, which we have rarely heard of. The Knight's Iron Cross is divided into five categories, from low to high, the Iron Cross, the Silver Oak Leaf Knight's Iron Cross, the Double Sword Silver Oak Leaf Knight's Iron Cross, the Diamond Silver Oak Leaf Knight's Iron Cross, and the Diamond Gold Oak Leaf Knight's Iron Cross!
Unlike the ordinary Iron Cross, the recipients of the Knight's Iron Cross were usually among the elite of the German army!
According to records, during the Nazi administration, no more than 1,000 people received the Silver Oak Leaf Medal, and only 160 people received the Silver Oak Leaf with two swords, of which 159 were Germans and the other was Japanese, this person was the notorious Yamamoto Fifty-six!!
The number of winners of the Order of the Diamond and Silver Oak Leaf is even smaller, only 27 people, and as for the Medal of the Diamond and Gold Oak Leaf, only one person has received it, as if it is called Hans. In addition, there was another person who received the Great Iron Cross, and that was Field Marshal Goering of the German Empire, and the Great Iron Cross of the Stars was never awarded!
The upper part of this medal in my hand has a double sword and a silver oak leaf, so it should be the so-called double sword silver oak leaf medal!!
Although, I don't know who the 159 Germans out of these 160 people were, but judging from the fact that Yamamoto Isoroku also received this kind of medal, what kind of important person should the person who died here be!?
Suddenly, I felt like everything was getting more and more secretive.
At this time, Hong Kaiyuan stood up and saw me holding the medal in a daze, so he said: "I have checked them all, I can be sure that these are all Germans!"
I didn't answer, I turned my head and looked around, and saw that there were still many compressed biscuit packaging bags and many empty canned food boxes scattered on the ground, which were not domestic from the packaging, so I asked Hong Kaiyuan how these people died.
"They should all be starving to death, but I don't know why they are trapped here!" Hong Kaiyuan scratched his scalp.
"Look at this again!" I handed him the medal again.
"I've seen it a long time ago, it's definitely the Iron Cross!"
"Take a closer look!" I took a deep breath.
Hong Kaiyuan glanced at me with a puzzled expression, and began to look at the medal again and again for a moment, frowning and asking me: "Old Qi, what else is so special about this thing?" It seems that he doesn't know much about these things.
"Its full name should be the Iron Cross of the Silver Oak Leaf of the Double Swords!" I was already starting to get mixed up.
"Does this name mean anything?" Wen Jing felt that there was something in my words.
After a long sigh, I popularized it to them.
As soon as I finished speaking, Hong Kaiyuan almost jumped up: "Do you mean that among the people who died here, there is a person of the same level as Yamamoto Fifty-six?
"Isn't it, is there such an exaggeration?" Wen Jing's eyes immediately widened, with an expression of disbelief.
"It's not that I'm on the same level as that little devil, but this person should have made a very outstanding contribution!!" I wiped my face vigorously and continued, "Moreover, this contribution is absolutely amazing!"
"Lao Qi, are you particularly off-topic? What does the size of his contribution have to do with the things here!" Hong Kaiyuan gave me a roll of his eyes.
"All of these medals are awarded to soldiers, and unless you have made an extremely great contribution to the country and the army, you can only receive this kind of medal!" Seeing that he never got on the road, I was a little helpless, so I had to continue: "This shows that this person is here for some military purpose!"
"Damn, labor and management are cowardly, don't scare me!" Hong Kaiyuan immediately understood what I wanted to say. "Could it be that these short-lived ghosts are here for a military mission?"
Wen Jing also understood, and suddenly became a little panicked: "It stands to reason that the war in Europe was tight at that time, and if it wasn't for something important or urgent, the German army would never have sent such a high-ranking figure here! Could it be that what is hidden here has something to do with the military aspect?"
"Sister, your imagination is too rich, the things in the Dong family's collection are all hundreds of years old, even if they are military, they are all old antiques, and the things of the cold weapon era can be compared with modern weapons?
"Is there really such a coincidence in this world?" Wen Jing frowned.
"This is called 'no coincidence makes no book'!" Hong Kaiyuan doesn't seem to care about these things anymore. This surprised me a little, because I still know his temperament better, and he has always been the kind of character who breaks the casserole and asks questions without giving up, but now such an obvious and weird reality is here, he is actually indifferent!
But I know very well in my heart that it doesn't matter where someone robs tombs and digs treasures, explores and searches, no matter where this person comes from, at best, it is only a small-scale operation of a small group, but if it is involved in the military, and there is a person with outstanding merits involved, it means that this is definitely not a trivial matter!
Since this is the treasure of the Dong family, and according to the current analysis, the closest age to us should be the Ming Dynasty, unless there are still some things that we don't know later, how can the modern Nazis find out here?
Besides, if we hadn't entered here, I wouldn't have believed that in my hometown, where birds don't, there is such a huge underground space underground, and it has attracted the Nazis in Germany!
Could it be that as Hong Kaiyuan said, the Nazis came here and had nothing to do with what the Dong family hid, it was simply a coincidence?
But that's too special, isn't it?!
Also, if these Germans also came in through the secret passage where we entered, how did they know that there was a secret passage, or did they come in through another entrance?
If you come in through another entrance, I don't have any doubts, but if you come in through the secret passage in the temple like we do, it's a bit of a problem.
Because it was obvious that in order to open the dark passage, the clock had to be removed and the floor could be pried. In this way, there are two possibilities.
First, they opened the tunnel and restored the tiles and moved the clock back to its original position. But is it really necessary? We didn't do it when we came in, because they were afraid that someone else would find out about it, and then deliberately restore it?
Second, it was not the Germans who did it, but someone else, who locked them up here after the Nazis came in, so they couldn't get out, and finally starved to death here.
The question arises again, could it be that these Nazis were already being followed when they came here, so they were cut off? Moreover, the mechanism outside can lock this place completely? In this way, if there is someone behind us, if he wants to, then the three of us will have to stay with these Nazis forever!
it, then we're too wronged.
But then I thought about it, since the snake and the invisible thing didn't hurt us halfway, they shouldn't have been trying to harm us. Because obviously, there should be no little snakes waiting for us to feed them, otherwise these German Nazis would not have starved to death here, but would have been eaten by the little snakes as a snack.
Therefore, the serpent and the invisible thing are clearly not leading us into this place in order to put us to death, but there should be other meanings. If that's the case, we don't have to worry about our lives for the time being.
But in this way, the cause of death of these Nazis who died here is really difficult to judge.
I thought about it for a while, because I never knew the essentials, and there was no conclusion, and Hong Kaiyuan didn't seem to care about this, so I didn't bother to say it, and it was indeed a bit early to draw conclusions now. So I changed the topic and asked Hong Kaiyuan, "Did you find anything else just now?" Because he had been tossing around in these dry corpses for so long just now, he must have discovered something.
"Just look at the compressed biscuit bags and those empty canned boxes on the ground!" Hong Kaiyuan yawned and said lazily. "Everybody's bags don't have any food in them!"
"You mean, they were trapped here and starved to death?!" Wen Jing's eyes were a little flustered, and she said with a wince: "Could it be that the hole can only be opened on the outside and closed on the inside, so they are trapped here?"
As soon as I heard this, I remembered my inference just now, and I immediately became furious, and opened my mouth to scold: "Dead fatty, now it's okay, the girl may be right! The hole is estimated to only be open from the outside, and the one inside can only be closed! Otherwise, how can they not get out~?"
Hong Kaiyuan looked at me like a fool, and said coldly: "Are you a little brainy? It's definitely not because of this! Labor and management have already told you that unless the people who built this place don't plan to come in, you can definitely go out!"
On second thought, too, if you don't do that, it's really a bit too much to say. But why are these people still trapped here? When they came in, as soon as Hong Kaiyuan pulled the iron ring, the entrance to the cave was immediately closed, and the thing should not be broken.
Aside from what I just thought, there is actually another possibility.
That is: they don't dare to go out, they don't dare to open that hole!!
Thinking of this, I immediately shuddered: Is it because of the snake? If it was really the snake that imprisoned these people here, then my previous speculation was pure nonsense. So, the snake is really not what I thought, for some other reason, is it really a sperm!?
I shivered for no reason, and in an instant I felt like I had been thrown into an ice cellar, and a chill came at me like a tide from all directions, and I only felt chills all over my body!
