Ifihlwe kwihlathi elishinyeneyo kwiiAlps zaseAustria, ngaphantsi nje kwekhulu leekhilomitha ukusuka kwisixeko saseSalzburg, kukho ichibi elihle: IChibi iToplitz. Yonke ingqongwe ziintaba kwaye kubunzulu beemitha ezingama-20 amanzi ayo akasenayo nethontsi leoksijini, ke ubomi bayo baselwandle bunokuhlala kuphela ukusuka apho ukuya phezulu kuba ukusuka apho ezantsi amanzi anetyiwa kwaye ibacteria kuphela kwaye ezinye zihlala. umbungu onzima.
Kodwa iLake Toplitz ayidumanga ngale nto ikhethekileyo kodwa kuyo imbali kunye nabanazi. Kubonakala ngathi phakathi kuka-'43 no-'44 isikhululo sovavanyo somkhosi waselwandle saseJamani sasebenza kunxweme lwaso apho sasilinga khona ngeziqhushumbisi ezenziwe ngobhedu. Iziqhushumbisi zenziwa kwiimitha ezininzi ubunzulu kwaye ii-torpedoes zaze zamiliselwa ngasezintabeni, okanye bathi. Kwakhona bathi ezinzulwini igolide edumileyo neyalahlekileyo yamaNazi ifihliwe.
Iidiving zokuqala zazisekupheleni kweminyaka yoo-50 kwaye iibhokisi ezinemali yomgunyathi zifunyenwekodwa kwithuba elidlulileyo urhulumente wagunyaza umzingeli waseMelika ukuba enze iidives ezintsha, ukubona ukuba le mfihlakalo isonjululwe na ekugqibeleni. Iibhasi zaseMelika zichithe ixesha elide zisiya emazantsi echibi zikhangela igolide yamaNazi. Imbali ithi iilori zaseJamani zazisa iibhokisi zentsimbi apha zaza zazilahla echibini. Iibhasi bakwazi ukuntywila ukuya kwiimitha ezili-107.
Kwaye bafumanisa ntoni? Udaka neenkuni, iinkuni ezininzi. Ke kwakunzima ukwahlula into kwaye ngakumbi ukufumana into. Eli bali ndikuxelela lona lenzeka kwiminyaka elishumi elinanye eyadlulayo. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku akukho nto intsha phantsi kwelanga. Igolide yamaNazi, ukuba ikho, ayifumanekanga kwaye iLake Toplitz ihlala iligugu kwaye akukho nto iyenye.
