"Captain," as soon as Sokov finished speaking, Poledenko added: "From now on, not only your subordinates will live here, but you officers will also stay in this school like them.
.No order, no
I will leave at will."
When Sokov heard what Poledenko said, he couldn't help being surprised, and secretly thought that if such an arrangement was made, wouldn't it be equivalent to putting Hosenfeld and the others under house arrest in the school?
Before Sokov could speak, Vaserigov had already asked: "Major Poledenko, isn't this the same as locking everyone in the school?"
"Major," Poledenko said, looking at Vaselgov: "Such supervision measures are completely necessary before they officially begin their duties." "Okay, okay, Major Vaselgov."
Sokov was worried that the two of them would quarrel in front of Hosenfeld and others, which would have a negative impact on their image, so he quickly raised his hand to interrupt them: "Just follow Bo's instructions.
Major Ledenko did what he said, no one from the 3rd Guard Detachment is allowed to leave this school before the unit officially starts going on duty." Since Sokov was present, Poledenko clearly lacked confidence when he spoke just now.
As long as the other party raised objections, his plan would be rejected. But what he didn't expect was that although Vaselgov proposed
He questioned, but Sokov did not raise any objections, and even agreed with his arrangement. "Comrade General," although Sokov agreed with his arrangement, Poledenko was still worried about what Sokov would have in mind.
Thinking of it, he quickly pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "You may think that I am so peaceful.
It’s not a good arrangement, but I actually have a reason.”
"Is there a reason?" Sokov had already guessed that Poledenko had his own purpose in making this arrangement, but now that he heard it from his own words, he couldn't help but ask: "Comrade Major, can you tell me,
What's the reason?" Poledenko habitually looked to the left and right, and saw that the others were seven or eight meters away from here. What he wanted to say could not be heard clearly by the other party. But out of caution, he
He still lowered his voice and said: "This is what Comrade Marshal meant. He was worried that these prisoners of war were unreliable and would leak our intelligence to the British and American sides." Perhaps because he was worried that Sokov did not understand what he meant, he further explained, "
During the war, we and Britain and the United States
We are allies; but now that the war is over, there is no common enemy. Maybe one day in the future, our comrades who once fought side by side will become our enemies." Sokov was very concerned about Poledenko's statement.
Agreed. He nodded and said, "Yes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Comrades who once fought side by side may one day meet each other.
For example, in 1939, we attacked Poland together with Germany, but less than two years later, we started a war with them that resulted in tens of millions of casualties." "According to intelligence analysis, in another two years at most,
Britain and the United States may launch a provocation against us. Before that, they will do everything they can to collect intelligence on our military and then launch targeted actions." Poledenko said.
Here, I glanced at the location of Ernst and Hosenfeld not far away: "These Germans who are assisting us in our work may defect to them privately and collect information about our army for them..." Listen
When it came to Poledenko's doubts about the German prisoners of war, Sokov really couldn't say anything. After all, the composition of the German prisoners of war was complex, and there would definitely be a certain degree of hidden dangers if he rashly included them. He could only nod.
Said: "You are right, Comrade Major. Then let everyone stay here first. After the training begins, we will send people to screen them to ensure their loyalty to our army." "That's right.
, This is how I think about it." A smile appeared on Poledenko's face: "Since Comrade General has also seen this, we will start screening them as soon as possible and leave those who are loyal to our army to form
A reliable security unit."
When the two returned to the crowd, Adelina asked casually: "Misha, what were you two talking about over there?" Naturally, Sokov couldn't compare himself to Poledenko.
The conversation told Agelina, and she quickly changed the topic: "Agelina, please help me ask Captain Hosenfeld what he did when he first helped the Jews.
What happened?" Agelina didn't understand why Sokov suddenly asked this question, but she still faithfully translated Sokov's words to Hosenfeld. At the end, she added: "Just now
Misha and the major are here
We’ve been talking for a while, maybe we’re talking about your affairs. If you can say something valuable, it will be helpful to your future.” After hearing this, Hosenfeld nodded gratefully to Agelina.
, and then talked about his past experience of helping Polish Jews: "I remember the first time I came into contact with the Jews was in May 1941. At that time, we had not started war with Russia, and the garrison headquarters in Warsaw began to concentrate the Jews in fixed areas.
Of course, not all Jews are. If you work in some important factories and are important skilled workers, then congratulations to you.
, your document will be affixed with a blue label, which means that you are an important skilled worker and are qualified to enter and exit the Jewish ghetto. One day, when I was driving through the door of the Jewish ghetto, I looked at a
The man wearing a top hat and a very black trench coat was arguing with the Jewish policeman at the door. I vaguely heard the other person saying that he was an important person.
Even if you don’t have the blue mark, you can enter and leave the Jewish ghetto at will.”
"Who is he?" After Agelina translated this passage, she asked on her own initiative: "What kind of important person is he?" "This Jew, I happen to know him, is the tutor of my friend's child.
He was originally a professor of mathematics at a university in Warsaw. After Warsaw was occupied by our army, Jews were no longer qualified to stay in the school and teach.
After a long life, I became a tutor for my friend’s children, specializing in teaching mathematics.”
"Since he is a teacher, he should be considered an important person." Hearing this, Vaselgov couldn't help but ask: "Why not put a blue label on him?" "Comrade Major." Hosenfei
I looked at Vaserigov and said: "Before the war broke out, Jews who served as teachers were respected. But after our army entered Warsaw, a series of decrees were promulgated, among which
Jews were not allowed to engage in professions such as teaching. It can be said that a high-level intellectual who was once respected by others was not as good as a skilled worker who was once looked down upon by them."
"What happened next?" Sokov asked: "What kind of help did you provide him?" "Comrade General, since I know him, I will definitely not ignore him. Ignore him." Hosenfeld replied:
“I ordered the driver to stop, got out of the car, walked over, and told the Jewish policeman who stopped the professor that he was a respected man.
Professor Zhong, why don’t you let him leave the place where he lives? The policeman replied: Today’s professors don’t even have ordinary technical workers, and no one is willing to provide them with blue ID cards. It doesn’t mean they are special.
Without proof of identity, he cannot be released from his residence.
"Residence." Although Agelina spent a lot of time in Warsaw, she never went to many places because she was worried about her identity being exposed. For example, she never set foot in Jewish gathering places. Therefore, Huosen
What Phil said
The content made her feel very strange.
"Captain Hosenfeld," Agelina asked curiously, "I think you must have helped him leave the Jewish ghetto. What happened next?"
"Don't worry, I will talk about this next." Hosenfeld continued: "After I negotiated with the Jewish police at the door, the other party finally agreed to make an exception and let the professor leave the residential area and follow me.
After getting on the bus, I curiously asked the professor why I didn’t get the blue expression. After hearing this, the professor replied bitterly: I thought I was in a classroom at a well-known university. When I went to the bank to apply for identity, the staff there
He would definitely put that blue mark representing his special status on his passport without hesitation. Who would have thought that when the other party heard that he was just a professor at the university, he would coldly tell him that nowadays professors and scholars are the most important people in society.
A useless occupation, not eligible for the blue mark representing a special status
After saying that, he kicked him out. After he left the bank, he originally wanted to go to my friend to see if he could get a blue tag representing his identity with his help. Unexpectedly, he encountered an inspection on the way.
The soldier saw that there was no code in his passport.
With a blue tag indicating his special status, he was arrested and sent directly to a Jewish residence for detention."
Hearing this, Vaserigov couldn't help but asked curiously: "Captain, why do you have to go to the bank to apply for identity? Shouldn't you go to the police station?"
"This is a rule from superiors. I don't know the specific reason."
"Oh oh oh, so that's it." Vaserigov continued to ask: "Then what happened next?" "I took him to a nearby big bank and asked the waiter at the counter to give him
There was a blue tag on his passport. But after the other party learned his true identity, he clearly told him that today’s scholars and professors
He is not qualified to apply for a special status at all. If he wants to apply for it, he can only change his status to a skilled worker. I thought about it at the time, since the bank staff said so, if he continues to want to maintain his status as a professor, it will definitely not work.
Ask him tentatively if he is willing to obtain a representative special occupation in another capacity.
A blue label? He thought for a long time and finally agreed to my proposal. So I told the bank staff to put a blue label on him to indicate that he was a skilled worker. The staff picked up the pen and entered his passport.

He erased it and re-wrote an occupation in the blank space: mechanical engineer. Then he took out the seal, paste and blue label, pasted them in the passport, and stamped it. After doing all this, he exchanged the passport to the

"What happened next?" Agelina asked eagerly: "What happened to the professor later?" "After the failure of the Warsaw Jewish Uprising in 1943, all the Jews were sent to concentration camps." Hosenfeld
He sighed and said, "When I got the news and rushed to the Jewish ghetto, there was not a single living Jew in sight except corpses on the ground and suitcases scattered everywhere. I later made inquiries through my connections.
