Everyone who entered the KΓΆnigsberg defensive circle, whether a civilian soldier walking or an officer in a car, had to be subjected to strict but not harsh checks and registered according to classification, and Lynn was naturally not treated exceptionally.

"11th SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Division?"

Looking at Lynn's soldier's badge, the Wehrmacht non-commissioned officer in charge of copying the registration deliberately looked at him twice.

"Well, we still have quite a few officers and enlisted men in our company on the perimeter line. A bunch of poor creatures who can't keep up with the big army, aren't they? Lynn had been prepared for this question for a long time, so he spoke very slippery, and his pronunciation was corrected by Carl, and it was much more standard than before.

After confirming that there was no problem with the documents, the non-commissioned officer shook his head helplessly: "The battle is like this, it is not surprising that anything happens!" I heard that your division is assembling near Stettin to rest, you go to the port area to find the Kyle Hotel, and ask the people in the theater logistics command there to see if they can arrange for you to board the ship as soon as possible, there should be a ship to Stettin in the near future! ”

Although he didn't want to leave the "butcher" whose life and death were uncertain and evacuate alone, it can be seen that the non-commissioned officer in front of him was also very kind, Lynn still thanked him solemnly, and asked: "Then how long will they wait before they can get on the ship?" ”

The non-commissioned officer looked at a family of three standing on the side of the road through the window glass: "I can't say for sure, maybe two days, maybe a week, mainly to see the navy." They've done their best, but our enemies are too ferocious......"

Lynn was silent, indeed, Germany's chosen opponent was too "ferocious". Even if you have a high-quality and elite army, you can only accept the fate of defeat in the end.

Taking back his soldier ID, Lynn walked out of the booth with his head down.

"Daddy! Father! ”

Little Catrili, who was squatting at the young woman's feet, was like a puppy that saw her master come home, and she was overjoyed.

Lynn walked a few steps briskly, bent down and stretched out her arms: "Come, Daddy hug!" ”

Little Catrili happily threw herself into Lynn's arms, leaned in on his stubble-bearded face and chuckled.

Although Lynn was full of smiles, but the separation was imminent, he was very conflicted in his heart.

Private Karl, who was behind Lynn, quickly registered, and the main force of his unit was still on the perimeter at this time, and it seemed that he could not board the ship in advance. Although this guy looked indifferent, he could still see a little loss in his eyes.

"They told me to go to the field hospital over there to check my injuries, use some anti-inflammatory drops, and maybe go back to the front! Our troops are still holding out in the most critical positions! ”

Lynn glanced in the direction he had turned, and the woods and villages behind the line were presumably fully utilized, with headquarters, artillery positions, ammunition depots, and field hospitals equipped with conspicuous crosses. Such a defensive line could not be compared with Maginow's monolithic fortifications, which took a lot of manpower, material resources and time to build, but it seemed at least relatively complete, but Lynn was very impressed by the ferocious offensive of the Soviet army, and he also knew that the moment when the spear against the shield was not far off. Shou, it must be impossible to hold, and we must find a way to let the little Catrili family board the ship as soon as possible.

On this issue, Lynn thought to herself that it was "must" rather than "do your best", not only because of the "that night" with the young woman, the dictionary and books provided by White Goatee, the voice of "Daddy" from little Catrily, and the effective relief of his depression in less than two days, all of which were mixed together, so that he did not need to weigh this point at all.

"Thank you for taking care of you along the way, Carl! One more thing......" Lynn pulled the private aside and whispered, "Is there any other way you can get them on board as soon as possible?" ”

Hearing this, the private was not surprised, he lowered his head, bit his lip with his teeth, thought sullenly, and looked around cautiously, and then whispered: "I heard from a friend a few days ago that during the day, the boarding order is strictly managed, but at night, because of the fear of attracting enemy bombers, the entire port is almost completely devoid of lights. Either bribe the sailors who arranged for boarding the ship with their money, or sneak on to the ship quietly while others are not looking. ”

Apparently knowing that Lynn's German was terrible, Carl said as he gestured with his fingers to Lynn's palm. Finally, he advised: "A naval soldier may not accept a bribe, so you should try something else." It is very risky to sneak on the ship, but with the current situation, the naval soldiers are not enough to shoot, I think the most they can do is to be thrown into the sea and swim back to shore by themselves! ”

After half-listening and half-guessing the meaning of the private, although Lynn nodded again and again, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This kind of weather is painful enough, if he is thrown into the sea, I am afraid it will be even more tragic than being beaten directly!

"Good luck anyway, Lynn!" The private solemnly shook Lynn's hand, then turned to say a brief goodbye to the White Goatee.

Although it was a parting, everyone did not show much sadness, the white goatee deliberately stepped forward to shake hands with Carl and say goodbye, and the young woman bowed down and taught little Cazzeri to say "goodbye, uncle".

"Goodbye, Carl! Take care! ”

After saying this, Lynn was very resolute not to overdo it. There is no feast in the world, but ...... I don't get along much with this family of three.

Bidding farewell to Private Carl, who was carrying the black pot, the group of four continued to travel north along the road. The white goatee always seemed to have such an unfazed expression, and the young woman seemed calm at this time, but she was not ignorant of what was about to happen. The delicate eyebrows recondensed the sadness, but it had changed a connotation, the lowered gaze seemed to no longer want to intersect with Lynn, and the two white and tender hands clasped each other tightly. Only little Catrili is immersed in the happiness of family and affection, but the more this is the case, the more she will be hurt when they are separated. Lynn was thinking about whether to "cool down" her in advance by harshly reprimanding her and getting angry for no reason, but when he saw that innocent and slightly vegetable-colored lovely face, he couldn't do it anyway - it was even more difficult than having him shoot the enemy in front of him!

After hesitating for a long time, and looking up the dictionary in advance, Lynn took the opportunity to go to the roadside to relieve himself and said to White Goatee, "Sir, there is something very important that I must discuss with you...... In order for you, Alice, and Catrili to board and evacuate as soon as possible, I'm going to take a special route, which will require some money, but I'm afraid I don't have enough with me......"

"You mean bribing someone to arrange the order of boarding?" White Goatee said bluntly, shaking his head after receiving a nod of acquiescence from Lynn. Leaving the bushes on the side of the road, he placed his suitcase on the ground and opened it in front of Lynn.

Inside, in addition to a few changes of clothes, were a few books and a small brown paper bag, which the white goatee had opened to reveal some bits and pieces of bread.

"When I gave you the book, did I ever take a penny from you?"

Hearing the words of the white goatee, Lynn suddenly felt very ashamed.

Immediately afterwards, the white goatee said to the young woman in a small and unangry tone, "Alice, do you have anything of value in your luggage?" ”

The young woman hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "There is only one silver ring left!" ”

Although she didn't say that this ring had any meaning, since it was kept to the end, it naturally wouldn't be dispensable.

Lynn sighed lightly, and after a while, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was found to have tampered with the scores of the exam papers in his childhood, and was instantly attacked by both human morality and emotional self-esteem, so that he felt uneasy for a while, and guilty and ashamed for a while.

Closing the suitcase again, the white goatee didn't look at Lynn, and said directly lightly: "It's okay, our meals are very small, and it is not a problem to support it for four or five days!" ”

"I've got some pie here, too!" When she said this, the young woman looked directly at Lynn, and there was no reproach in her eyes, but it gave Lynn a sense of relief.

If he had met such a family in peacetime, Lynn would have promised him without hesitation.

Standing next to the young woman like a little penguin, Catrili didn't understand what the adults were worried about, but she said to Lynn firmly, "It's all right, Daddy! As long as you take us with us, even if we don't take a big boat, it's good to walk like this all the time! ”

In an instant, the embankment that protected Lynn's inner emotions collapsed, and he bent down to pick up little Katri, and burst into tears: "You are such a little fool, a little fool, a little fool, a little fool, a little fool......"
