Section 1120 General Xinfa Qiu Zhonglang
On the orders of Yan Changwu, Mr. David summoned Zhang Dafa, the commander of the 116th Engineer Division of the Southeast Army, who had built the new city of Calcutta and was even more brilliant in the construction of the new city of Cairo.
He is familiar with the business, can effectively organize the construction site and mobilize the enthusiasm of everyone, and is a rare civil engineering talent.
When Zhang Dafa saluted the red-haired fan, Mr. David was touching a copper seal on his desk, which had a hideous god head.
Mr. David returned the salute, invited him to sit down, and said directly: "Master Zhang, your ancestor did an inverted bucket business?" ”
Fallen fighters, folk archaeologists too!
"Exactly!" Zhang Dafa replied.
As a division commander, he is already a senior officer of the Southeast Army, establishing a file and checking the eighteenth generation of his ancestors, he also confessed to it, knowing that the leader only talks about loyalty and ability, regardless of his background.
One asked naturally, the other answered calmly.
"Good!" Mr. David said happily and exclaimed, "Go on! ”
He threw the copper seal to Zhang Dafa, Zhang Dafa followed the copper seal, and saw that the head of the god was printed with Zhong Kui!
couldn't help but look at the words on the copper seal again, and suddenly breathed shortly.
The copper seal has eight big characters on the copper seal, "Heavenly official blessing, no taboo", most people don't know what it is, but Zhang Dafa has a family heirloom, and naturally knows that this is a replaceable divine object.
However, the copper seal should be newly cast, and I don't know if it has any effect!
"After the study and decision of the General Headquarters of the Western Front of the Southeast Army, you will be appointed as the general of the Faqiu Zhonglang of this dynasty, the commander of the rank-related army, and preside over the archaeological affairs of the Valley of the Kings in Egypt!" Mr. David took out a copy of the order and read it aloud.
This order is a bit nondescript, but Zhang Dafa happily obeyed!
Hair Hill Zhonglang General, Hair, Excavate. mounds, graves. Zhonglang General, the official name, Qin Zhonglang, to the Western Han Dynasty divided into five officials, left and right, three Zhonglang offices, each Zhonglang will lead the emperor's guards, belonging to Guangluxun.
There are many kinds of Zhonglang generals, such as Cao Cao's son Cao Pi served as the general of the five senses, Zhuge Liang served as the general of the military division, etc., as for the Faqiu Zhonglang general, it was initiated by Cao Cao, and it has left a strong mark in Chinese history!
This is the Han system, and the subsequent dynasties have hardly been reset, and today this official name has seen the light of day, and it is clear that it has the right to be capricious.
This official position is equivalent to the treatment of a military commander, and Zhang Dafa is very happy and determined to carry forward the career of his ancestors abroad.
He carried out his work and did not rush to go out, first gathering information.
What surprised Zhang Dafa was that the Southeast Army had a lot of information about the Valley of the Kings, and there was a thick stack!
700 kilometers south of Cairo and 7 kilometers on the west bank of the Nile, there is a large desert area where the ancient Egyptian capital of Thebes was located.
The Valley of the Kings is located in a deserted limestone canyon not far from the ruins of Thebes. At the bottom of that cliff is the place where the pharaohs were buried during the New Kingdom of ancient Egypt (1570 B.C. ~ 1090 B.C.). For centuries, pharaohs carved burial chambers in these cliffs on the west bank of the Nile to house the remains of their dignitaries.
With the passage of time and the change of dynasties, after 3,000 years, the Valley of the Kings has long been completely abandoned into a dilapidated desert.
However, it has always been thriving, and for 3,000 years, groups of grave robbers have turned the valley over and over again.
Today, it's the turn of archaeologists from the East to show their skills!
Thanks to the teachings of the leader, Zhang Dafa knew the meaning of "Terminator", and he was determined to become the Terminator of the Valley of the Kings.
Everyone else is making a small fuss, with the support of the army, coupled with the diligence of the Chinese, it is enough to turn the Valley of the Kings upside down, and all the cultural relics are in hand!
His shrill laughter came from inside the tent, which made the passing officers and soldiers feel nervous.
In the desert south of Old Cairo, there is a large black market that specializes in the trade in antiquities.
The ancient relics here have always been prosperous, after all, the Egyptian civilization has a long history, and some cultural relics have been left to the people of this land.
As the political situation in Cairo stabilized, it gradually recovered, and the purchase and sale of cultural relics boomed.
The so-called black market is some tents, where the stall owner places some things in front of the tent, and good things come into the tent to negotiate.
People come and go, and everything is sold here, including the crown worn by the pharaoh and the toilet bowl used--- well, the pharaoh never used the toilet? That's how little you know!
For example, mummies are very sought-after, as soon as they are sold out as soon as they are listed, merchants buy them, smuggle them to Europe, and make them into divine powder.
What is Divine Powder? It is a powder made from the mummy of the pharaoh, which has incredible magical powers, and is used to apply to the wounds of the wounded, and is an important medicine in Western medicine at that time.
However, some discerning merchants have noticed that individual activists have disappeared and do not know where they have gone.
And in the barracks, from time to time there was a howl of ghosts and wolves, and those guys fell into the hands of Zhang Dafa, who tortured them to explain the situation in the Valley of the Kings, and his information continued to increase.
Finally, he issued an order, and mobilized 20,000 men, including 10,000 combat troops and 10,000 engineer divisions, to go south of the Nile River and go straight to the Valley of the Kings.
Needless to say, the march was hungry and thirsty, and the troops arrived at the Valley of the Kings, a desolate valley surrounded by the surrounding mountains, full of the shadow of death. The lavish caves of the year have been looted, and many of the caves have open entrances that serve as nests for wild foxes, falcons and bats.
What's even more terrifying is that the people there are full of murderous intentions, and corpses are seen from time to time, and one after another gang of tomb robbers are still active here.
Even after 3,000 years of illegal excavation, there are still cultural relics flowing out in a steady stream, which shows the prosperity of ancient Egypt!
Walking in the ruins and broken pillars of the Thebes ruins, I didn't have time to sigh at the vicissitudes of life, the world changed, the Chinese blockaded the Valley of the Kings, and those people of all kinds who stayed in the Valley of the Kings had no time to escape, and all became free migrant workers, responsible for "helping" the southeast army to carry out "archaeology" operations, and there were as many as 3,000 of these people.
When he first set out, someone asked Zhang Dafa if he didn't bring migrant workers?
Zhang Dafa said that there is no need for migrant workers, there are migrant workers!
Those men may be brave and insidious, but they are nothing in front of an army armed to the teeth.
Those who resisted were shot instantly, those who did not do their jobs well were whipped, and the army was not polite at all.
It is really the wicked who have their own evil grinding, and they were killed by the Southeast Army in three days 500 people, and the rest worked honestly.
The entrance to the tombs of the pharaohs of the Imperial Valley is often halfway up the mountainside, with small passages leading to the depths of the tombs, and the patterns and hieroglyphs on the walls of the passages are still very clear today.
From the entrance to the final burial chamber, a few hundred meters horizontally and half a hundred meters vertically, huge rock caves were dug into underground palaces, and the walls and ceilings were covered with frescoes, richly decorated to the point of unimaginable.
The Southeast Army first built roads and houses, and announced the establishment of the Imperial Valley Archaeological Affairs Office to carry out rescue archaeology in the Imperial Valley.
As a result, the more I dig, the more exciting I became!
