[Crossing] Beacon Fire Dragon Line

〖Caritasfraternitatismaneatinvobis. (Let brotherly love be with you.)〗The light blue stripes on the shoulder straps of the two SS soldiers touched Sheng Rui's nerves.

These days, he has not never considered the possibility of meeting Qi Han here.However, this idea was finally dismissed by him.

The SS unit participating in the Battle of the Ardennes was the Sixth Panzer Division, not Qi Han's unit, so he would appear on the Western Front for no reason.

Moreover, even if he actually came, the entire vast Ardennes area is now stretched with hundreds of thousands of American and German troops, and the possibility of the two meeting each other is extremely slim.Such a small probability is basically unnecessary to consider.

However, when he saw the epaulettes of the logistics force, his heart was still involuntarily twitched.

The one facing him is a boy with light blond hair and freckles, he looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, staring at the snow water in the helmet is like staring at a plate of fat roasted turkey on the dining table .Not knowing what his companion said, the freckle-faced boy shrank back in embarrassment, and vigorously wiped the snot that was about to flow down with the back of his hand.

Sheng Rui suddenly had some indescribable feelings in his heart.

If those uniforms were taken off, these two young soldiers were actually just children.

Harold was watching all this through the scope too.

Intuitively, he felt that the two German soldiers were not the shooter, and their aura was different.People who are good at shooting will have a unique temperament, calm, calm and sophisticated.These two German soldiers are too tender.

So he ignored the two small shrimps and waited for the big fish to come out.

Not long after, the door of the cabin opened again.A man wearing a steel helmet and a warrant officer's collar badge appeared in the field of vision, holding a Stg44 in his hand.

Harold's eyes lit up immediately.

Yes, it must be this guy.He could feel the aura, and the figure and weapon matched it.

The warrant officer seemed to be asking the two recruits to come inside.The freckle-faced boy stood up weeping, probably because he had been scolded.The warrant officer walked over, took off his helmet, and put it on the boy's head.

good chance.

Harold lifted his spirits and immediately adjusted the scale of the scope.The warrant officer's face suddenly became clear in front of his eyes. The handsome face with black hair and green eyes didn't look a few years older than the boy with freckles.

I don't know if a professional sniper can stare at the opponent's face close at hand while nonchalantly sending a bullet into the opponent's head, but when Harold actually pulled the trigger, he felt a little uncomfortable.

This discomfort made him hesitate for a second.

"boom!"

A muffled sound.

The shot missed.

The reason was not that his aim was bad, but that during the second of his hesitation, Sheng Rui who was next to him suddenly jumped up and pressed his gun barrel to the ground.

The bullet plunged into the snowdrift with a whoosh.

Their positions had been exposed, and before the opponent counterattacked, the two quickly retreated to a safe distance.

After running far away in one breath, Harold stopped and said to Sheng Rui angrily, "What's going on, are you crazy?"

In the cabin, Nightingale and John were still in shock.

Until now, they didn't quite understand what happened just now.There was only a muffled bang, and then two men in US military uniforms jumped up and down in the snow more than 200 meters away, and disappeared like rabbits.

Although it is not clear what the other party is up to, the fact that there are enemies lurking under the nose is already terrifying.They hurriedly prepared to evacuate here, in case the two men ran to move troops.

At this time, Nightingale heard someone shouting in German outside, asking to see their warrant officer.He looked out and saw a young American soldier walking towards them with his hands raised in a gesture of surrender. He was not wearing a helmet, he was an Asian with black hair and black eyes.

Seeing Nightingale poking his head, the man waved his hands at him, "Don't shoot, I don't have a weapon, I have something important to tell your warrant officer."

Nightingale retracted her head: "Sir, don't go there, it must be a trap."

However, before he finished speaking, he saw the warrant officer rushing out as if possessed.He heard the two men say something in a language he didn't understand, and then the warrant officer turned back: "You go out first, I have something to talk to him."

The three looked at each other.Although I can't figure out the situation, the commander's order must be obeyed.

When the door was closed, Nightingale secretly glanced at the warrant officer.

There was a strange look in the warrant officer's eyes, which Nightingale had seen before—once, when Herman talked about a girl he had a crush on in his hometown, there was such a look in his eyes.

Harold hurried back to his bivouac in the woods.

Hearing footsteps, several heads popped out of the foxholes.

"Hal? Why did you come back alone, where did Ray go?"

Harold wiped the sweat off his brow and opened his backpack: "We failed in the sniper attack and accidentally exposed the position. Ray was caught by them, and they said that he would release him only in exchange for food."

This is of course not the case.

The real situation is——

"Hal, that warrant officer...he's my brother."

"What?!"

"I'll explain to you later, you do me a favor first. I have to see him right away, and you find an excuse to deal with the rest of the class."

"What?!"

"Also, can you bring something to eat? I think they've been hungry for days."

"What?!"

"Hal, only you can help me now. Do you remember the Philadelphia motto? I would do anything for my brother, so please."

(Philadelphia is also known as the "city of brotherly love", and the city motto is "Let brotherly love be with you".)

The last sentence convinced Harold.

He had witnessed the old crow transforming from a kind person into what he is now, and he had imagined what would happen to him if the same thing happened to him.

Finally, he sighed. "After this matter is over, you have to talk to me about why your brother is a fucking SS."

——These truths, of course, cannot be told to others, so Harold had to bear this huge blame.

Sheng Rui's popularity is very good. When he heard that he had been arrested, several people who were usually close to him jumped up and wanted to get a gun.

"Don't! Don't mess around!" Harold hurriedly stopped him, "They said that as long as you get food, let him go, and he won't hurt him. If you mess around, it will be bad. Whoever has something not to eat, take it Give me."

Others also opened their backpacks and picked out the food that didn't suit their taste.

The U.S. military is so capricious. When the Germans were starving to death, they were still choosing tastes, and untouched canned meat was often thrown in the trash.

Harold ran back with his arms full of cans, turned his head and shouted: "Stay where you are, don't follow! They are very cruel."

As soon as the door was closed, Sheng Rui brutally pushed Qi Han against the wall and bit his lips.This longing has been stretched for so long that he doesn't know how to vent it.

Qi Han was much thinner than he remembered, and his small chin was as sharp as a Swiss Army knife, which made him feel very distressed.

Under normal circumstances, Sheng Rui's physical strength is not comparable to Qi Han's.He has done his best and only joined the army for a few months, how can he compete with Qi Han's physique that has been trained for many years.

But now Qi Han was so hungry from head to toe, and he didn't want to resist at all, so he felt that the opponent's strength was extraordinarily strong, and he was restrained so that he couldn't move at all.

A slight dizziness hit like a wave.He can swim 200 meters in the water without breathing, but this kiss makes him feel as if he is about to suffocate.

His lips were sealed and he couldn't speak, so he had to hug the other person's neck subconsciously.A thin metal bead chain is hooked on the fingertips, and an oval sign hangs at the bottom.He knew it was a "dog tag."

Sheng Rui, soldier.

He hadn't been able to complete this huge transformation in his head.

Even through the thick military uniform, you can feel that the muscles on Sheng Rui's arms and chest are as solid as steel.

He couldn't help being a little stunned.Before he knew it, Sheng Rui had changed so much, he was no longer the weak and charming young man when he first met.

If it wasn't for his stomach growling, I don't know how long this kiss would have lasted.

"I forgot, you're still hungry." Sheng Rui took out the M&M chocolates in his pocket.It was part of the K ration for the U.S. Army, and he always carried one with him to prevent hypoglycemia.

He peeled it off and put it in Qi Han's mouth.

Taste is the best memory storage.

The first time they kissed, it was the smell of daffodils.The second time, it was the taste of chocolate.

He hoped that every good taste in this world would be stored in Qi Han's memory, and that every bit of their relationship would be recorded.

"Sorry, I know this chocolate is not very tasty." Sheng Rui apologized.

The chocolate tasted badly, like boiled potatoes, so that soldiers wouldn't eat it as candy.So much so that American soldiers complained: It is said that soap made of chocolate is good for the skin when taking a bath. Judging from the taste of this chocolate, they must be bath products, not food.

Qi Han shook his head, buried his face on Sheng Rui's shoulder, like a dog confirming its owner's scent.

"Rui, after I bring them back to Germany, can I come back to see you?" His voice was muffled, "Take me away, you can go anywhere. I don't want to go back to Berlin."

It was too far from Sheng Rui.He was afraid that once he went back, he would never be found again.

At this moment, nothing is important anymore, and he doesn't understand it all.The person in front of him is his whole world.Even if the earth will be swallowed by the red giant sun tomorrow morning, he just wants to hug him and be with him.

Sheng Rui did not respond.

The barn appeared in his mind, the old crow's phosphorescent eyes, and the order: "All SS soldiers will be killed immediately if found, and no prisoners will be kept."

He couldn't protect him, and it was impossible to take him out of this snowy fighting zone without supplies.
