Chapter 402: One Ride is a Thousand (1)
What Mikhachav did, I was disgusted.
In fact, being a traitor is a helpless choice in war, and there is nothing surprising at all, and anyone has the right to make their own choice when the army is in the city. However, when he faced the aggressor's boastful appearance, he had already reduced his people to the lowest level.
In all human wars, there will be traitors, and the Northern Alliance has gone through too many civil and external wars in history, so it is normal for a traitor like him to appear.
"Is there anything else you have to say in this situation?" Mikhachav looked at me.
I shook my head slowly, indeed, with his assistance, the invaders drove straight in and captured the big man, which was a very frustrating thing. I don't want to say anything, especially in the face of a traitor like Mikhachav.
"Now, the city is under my control." Mikhachav said proudly.
"It's not under your control, it's under our control." Said the leader of the sneak attackers.
There are obvious differences between them, and traitors are the most despised, because soldiers in war have their own principles, and not being traitors is the first one.
"When we get to Berlin and meet the FΓΌhrer, we will be able to distinguish between us." Mikhachav said.
I can't imagine a scenario in which the Northern League fell entirely into the hands of the Nazis, in which case the Nazis would have unified Europe and would soon go east and south, igniting a second war in Asia and the Americas.
The same situation seems to have happened in history, for example, in the Yuan Dynasty in China, the Mongol army led by Genghis Khan first joined forces with the Southern Song Dynasty to destroy the Jin State, and then swept south, swept through the Southern Song Dynasty, and completed the unification of the Central Plains. The Southern Song Dynasty originally wanted to seek skin with the tiger, but in the end he became a victim.
Returning to the current situation in the Axis powers, once the Nazis gain power, it is very possible to kill the other two allies.
Actually, I could kill these people, but only if the big guys were safe. I haven't seen a big man yet, so I'm definitely not going to act rashly.
"Where is the big one?" Mikhachav asked.
The leader nodded: "It's on the truck right outside, it's double handcuffed and shackled, it's very safe." β
This news was shocking news for the people of the capital, who had become prisoners while they were still struggling to resist the Nazi attack. As a result, their battle is meaningless, and they have become headless birds, rootless trees, and sourceless water. So at this time, it is especially important to rescue the big guys.
He is the soul of the Northern Alliance, and if the soul is gone, then this war will be lost.
"You'd better get the big guy in and show it to my friends." Mikhachav said.
"Is this necessary? We were ordered to return the same way as soon as we captured the prisoners, and threaten the defenders with the lives of the big men to open the door and surrender. The leader said.
"Listen to my orders and bring the big guys in." Mikhachav said loudly.
They seem to have formed a complete antagonistic relationship, and Mikhachav wanted to show credit in front of me, but was blocked by his companions, which made him very shameless.
"I'm going out to see the big guys." I say.
"Of course, of course." The two of them rushed to say.
I made a "head in front of you" gesture, but the two of them didn't move and remained silent.
"Who can go out with me?" I asked.
This time, Mikhachav did not take the initiative, but waited for the leader to speak.
"The truck is out there, and the big guy is on the truck." The leader said.
"Okay, I'll go out on my own." I say.
As I walked out, the leader made a gesture, and two gunmen immediately followed me, one left and one right, close to me.
They are qualified military men who are able to strictly carry out the orders of their superiors and do not care for their own safety. War is the manifestation of the will of the head of state, and these soldiers can only obey because it is their duty. Most of the millions of soldiers who died in World War II were very innocent because they didn't understand what they were fighting for. Even among those fanatical Nazis, a considerable number of them have been coerced forward by others and have lost their minds.
Killing these people, just adding a few numbers to this war, doesn't make much sense. If you can know the secret of the dragon scale pattern from their mouths, it will be more important than taking their lives.
I walked out of the basement, and the trucks were all parked outside, with countless bullet holes and blood stains on the compartment.
"On the second truck." Follow the alerts of the people who are monitoring me.
I walked over to the second truck, grabbed the handrail, and flipped over.
"Bang, bang, bang", and two gunmen stood up from the corner and raised their guns at me.
I slowly raised my hands: "Don't be nervous, I'm just here to see the big guys." β
The big man sat in another corner, legs and arms stretched forward, locked in double handcuffs and leg irons. His mood was very bad, and he was reduced from the leader of the Northern Alliance to a prisoner, which no one could accept.
"Let him see, it's the captain who agreed." The gunmen outside the carriage shouted.
"It's not hurt, is it?" I nodded to the big guys.
The big man slowly raised his head and looked at me with a wry smile, without saying a word.
"It doesn't matter, there is an old saying in the Central Plains, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. Never admit defeat until the end. I continued.
At this point, I really didn't have much to say, I didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"There must be internal ghosts, there must be traitors, otherwise, the Nazi forces will not be easy to get their hands on." Said the big shot.
I nodded: "Yes, there is a mole." β
"Is it Mikhachav?" The big guy asked.
I nodded again: "That's right, it's him." β
The big man nodded again and again, and the wry smile on his face deepened.
I couldn't find the right words to comfort him, because he relied heavily on Mikhachav, and this time he looked away, and his cronies turned traitors, which led to a total collapse. In a sense, this failure also originated from his misuse of people.
"Tell me, what does the dragon scale pattern represent?" I asked.
The big man frowned: "You went into the basement of the museum and saw the scroll and the tin bucket too, right?" β
He was sensitive and immediately guessed the Nazi attempts. This also shows from the side that he knows the scroll very well, and he also has an in-depth exploration of the meaning of the dragon scale pattern.
"We've got the scrolls and the tin buckets, and they're going to be sent to the Chancellery in Berlin soon." I nodded.
"No, you can't send it, that's going to be a big problem. Once the Nazis got all the dragon scales, the scales of justice would tip in favor of the Nazis, making the world black and white. Stop them, you must stop them......" The big man shook his head repeatedly.
"I just want to ask you, since those things are from the western part of the Central Plains, they must represent the interests of the Central Plains, right?" I asked.
I know that it seems inappropriate to ask such a question at this moment, because the big man is already in danger and will soon be in danger of his life. The city was in a precarious state, and while the inhabitants were still resisting, they were no longer able to defend their leader, and had to allow the enemy to capture the big guys.
This is just another copy of the "Jingkang Shame", in the Central Plains at that time, the Jin people roared south, sacked the capital, and carried away all the gold and silver treasures of the Northern Song Dynasty. Now, in the basement of the museum, the Nazis are seizing the national treasure of the Northern Alliance, but no one can stop it.
"It's too late to say anything, and I can only tell you that those things are about the rise of a dragon. You may wonder that there is no such thing as a dragon in the world, and it was made up by your ancient people in the Central Plains. However, there is a lot of information that suggests that the dragon really exists. Said the big man.
The dragon scale pattern is of course a part of the dragon, but I can't fully believe the dragon that the big man says. In ancient Chinese philosophy, the dragon was invented by all intellectuals, incorporating the characteristics of various animals, ascending to the heavens and the earth, soaring through the clouds and fog, everywhere, and omnipotent. However, apart from a few unwarranted wild history notes, no one has actually seen the so-called dragons. Especially in the 21st century, dragons are even more unlikely.
"You've been captured, and these secrets will eventually belong to the Nazis, right?" I asked.
The big man sighed deeply: "This is a state secret of the Northern Alliance, which will not belong to anyone, especially not to the Nazis." So you should know that my time in this world is running out. It is a great fate for us to meet at this time, and I want to entrust you with one thing, and that is - never let the Nazis take the scroll with them. I'd rather you take it and take it to the Central Plains, collect all the dragon-related scrolls, and finally find the dragon. I have always believed that only that dragon can bring peace and prosperity to the world. β
The four gunmen inside and outside the carriage didn't care at all what I was communicating with the big guys, just watched indifferently and listened silently.
"Any further clues about that dragon?" I asked.
"All the information comes from the treasure cave in the western part of the Central Plains, and the dragon is behind the treasure cave. Now, the world is in turmoil, and it is the time when that dragon is born. The big man replied.
"What does that treasure cave refer to? Is it Dunhuang? Is it the Mogao Grottoes? I asked.
I have seen the Mogao Grottoes turn around, so I absolutely believe that there is another world behind the grottoes, and it is not a simple mountain. However, there was no water and no food on the Gobi Desert, so it was impossible to hide a dragon.
"It's there, it's there." The big man nodded in reply.
When all the clues pointed to the Mogao Grottoes again, I didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
Many metaphysicians have said that the Mogao Grottoes are by no means a simple mural display corridor, but have a deeper existence value. It's just that modern people can't understand the design of ancient people, because the worldview, values, and outlook on life of modern times are different from those of ancient times, so modern people have no way to guess what the designers wanted to express at that time. If you really want to know the secrets of the Mogao Grottoes, you have to dismantle it completely.
I knew that with just a scroll and a tin bucket, I couldn't uncover the secrets of the Mogao Grottoes. When the cave was excavated, the cultural relics dealers of the Eight-Nation Alliance participated in the plundering of the treasures of the Mogao Grottoes, not only the people of the Northern Alliance, but also other countries gained a lot. I can even think that any one of the Eight-Nation Coalition holds some of the secrets of the Mogao Grottoes, and all the secrets are connected to the real answer.
Sure enough, the answer of the big man confirmed my guess: "Back then, the eight countries entered the Central Plains for no noble purpose, but to plunder wealth. However, the United States and Britain are good at camouflaging their own purposes with a beautiful halo, so they mainly emphasize the opening of commercial ports and the demarcation of concessions in the capital, but in essence, the only purpose is to take root in the capital. Compared with their hypocrisy, our Northern Alliance is very merciful, and did not excessively embarrass the Central Plains government, but took away its own share of the fruits of victory. If you put all the cultural relics related to the Mogao Grottoes from eight countries together, you will clearly see the past and present life of the Mogao Grottoes. β
