How to convert windows-1250 encoded string to unicode?

Question

I get from some dll library (which is a wrapper for some external data sources) in the Windows-1250 code page, and I would like to insert them correctly (as unicode) into a table in a SQL Server database. Since a specific row in the database that should contain this data of type NVarchar, I needed to convert it to C # code in unicode and pass it as a parameter. Everything is good and pleasant, but I came across a transition step.

I tried the following, but this does not work:

private static String getUnicodeValue(string string2Encode) //
{
    Encoding srcEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding("Windows-1250");
    UnicodeEncoding dstEncoding = new UnicodeEncoding();
    byte[] srcBytes =  srcEncoding.GetBytes(string2Encode);
    byte[] dstBytes = dstEncoding.GetBytes(string2Encode);
    return dstEncoding.GetString(dstBytes);
}

When I insert this returned row into the table, I do not receive the correct letters, such as Đ, đ, Č, č, Ć or ć.

Please, help!:)
