When I woke up from my coma, I found myself lying on a grass surrounded by many soldiers. My hands on the ground, want to get up, next to a lieutenant came to hold my shoulder, concern said: "you wake up, it doesn't matter?"
I sat up with his help, touched the back of my head with my hand, tried to squeeze out a smile to him, and replied, "thank you for your concern, but the back of my head still hurts, but it doesn't matter." At this point, I looked around again and found that we were in the open space in the middle of the forest. There were nearly a thousand people wearing Soviet uniforms. I was surrounded by school or Lieutenant level officers. Further away, there were sergeants or ordinary soldiers. Hundreds of German soldiers armed with guns were on guard in the north, East and west of the forest, but there was no one in the south. In addition to the infantry, there are several tanks and armored vehicles in charge of us. The machine guns and muzzles on them point to where we are.
I asked the lieutenant in a low voice, "do you know where this is?"
The second lieutenant shook his head and said, "Comrade major, I don't know. After I was captured, I was taken directly here. "
I asked curiously, "how did you get captured?"
The second lieutenant said with a wry smile: "the troops were scattered by the Germans. I wandered in the forest for a few days and unexpectedly met a so-called search team. I thought they were my own people, so I came out from the hiding place to contact them. I didn't expect that they were the traitors of Dongfang camp. So I became a prisoner in such a muddle headed way. "
I was chatting with the second lieutenant when a captain came to us with a cat on his waist and said in a low voice, "Hello, two, we are going to escape from the south where there is no German defense. Will you join us?"
"Run? Where are you going? " After listening to what he said, after observing the surrounding environment again, I resolutely denied his proposal and pointed out to him with good intentions: "Comrade captain, we are at least 300 meters away from the nearest forest. How likely do you think it is that we will not be found by the Germans before we run there?"
After listening to what I said, the captain thought for a while and said, "we can crawl to a place only 50 meters away from the forest, and then get up and run quickly. It only takes more than ten seconds to run into the forest."
"Yes, major, the captain has a point. We can get close to the edge of the forest quietly, then get up and run into the forest quickly."
I looked at the black muzzle, shook my head, lowered my voice and said to him, "what's the use of running into the forest. We don't know where we are now. We may be captured by the Germans or starved to death in the forest after wandering around for a few days. Do it yourself! "
Listen to my words, the second lieutenant is a Leng, obediently closed his mouth, did not agree with the captain's proposal. When the captain saw that we were not moved, he moved to other places to lobby other commanders.
Just then, the three officers jumped up from where they were sitting and ran to the forest hundreds of meters away. Although everyone has been hungry for a long time, their speed is not slow.
With a bang of gunshot, a fast bullet with a strong force, after completing the flight in the air, hit the officer running in the front on the back. A brilliant splash of blood, his body rushed forward, heavily fell on the ground, and then lay there motionless.
Seeing his companion fall down, the other two officers quickened their running speed. In a few seconds, they could run into the forest. At this time, there was a sharp whistling of the shells in the air, and then the smoke of the explosion of two shells landed and covered them. After the smoke dispersed, we saw two fresh and smoky craters surrounded by many human limbs and arms.
A German armored car quickly drove towards the accident site, stopped at the place where the officers were lying dead, got off the car, checked the bodies on the ground, got on the car again, turned around and drove to our position.
The second lieutenant and the captain who tried to persuade us to run away were scared pale by what happened just now. Maybe they were glad to listen to my words and didn't take risks. Otherwise, they would become two cold bodies now.
I don't know how to calculate and predict what will happen in the future, but I analyze it according to the German deployment. The reason why they didn't set up defenses on the edge of the forest in the South was that they had thought in advance that someone would try to escape. And I'm sure no one will be able to run away, because all the Soviet prisoners of war have been in their fire range.
The armored car stopped in front of our team, and a German Lieutenant came down from the car. He came up to us with his hands behind his back, and said in Russian without any expression on his face, "guys, I think you already know the consequences of escape. I hope you will remember that if you want to escape, there will only be one result, and that is death! "
After listening to the German lieutenant, everyone was silent.
I didn't expect that what he said next made the originally quiet team noisy“ There are so many disobedient guys in your team, because you can't stop their stupid behavior in advance, then you will also be punished. Tonight's dinner has been cancelled, so that everyone will not think about running away when they are full. "
"Why cancel our dinner? We don't know they're going to run away." Someone in the line yelled“ Yeah, yeah! Why punish all of us when a few of them make mistakes. " In the face of the noise, the lieutenant frowned, pulled out his pistol, and without hesitation fired a shot at the head of the officer who made the most noise. As the officer fell to the ground, the originally loud crowd suddenly quieted down“ Who else has a problem with cancelling dinner? Stand up Seeing that his authority had been adjusted, the Lieutenant's face began to darken. Then his expression gradually began to become crazy, seeing that the prisoners who were closest to him all bowed their heads and dared not face the madman's eyes. Seeing that the prisoners of war kept silent, the German Lieutenant put the pistol back in the holster, turned and boarded the armored vehicle, directing the vehicle back to its original starting point. After a while, a German corporal with four or five soldiers, carrying pickaxes and shovels, picked a few strong commanders and fighters from the prisoners of war, thrust the tools into their hands, and then drove them to bury the dead prisoners.
