Promised to them that they could go home when the matter was over.

Germany laid mines in Denmark. The Danish instructor took some German prisoners to clear the mines. First, teach them how to clear. Then, divide the tasks, how much you have to clear in a week. A week later, the mission was completed, they played for a day, and on the way back, the Danish officer's puppy was blown up. The officer was very angry and asked how he could trust you to clear all the mines. The new method is to stand in a line and walk in the minefield to ensure that this area is really free of mines. Later, they still used the old method, lying on their stomachs and re-examined. Finally, the mission was done, and they got into the car and went home. The officer was called away by the British and was told that the German boys were going to another location to clear the mines. The Danish officer was furious and let the German boys go on their way to another location.

Some small stories interspersed in it.

The Danish officer tried to avoid too much negotiation with the German boys at first, and then had a good chat with one boy.

One man vomited and was injured during the demining of the mine. The wounded German boy was pulled away, and once the officer visited him, the nurse said the boy was dead. The officer came back and said the boy was home.

There are many types of mines. There is a type of mines called continuous mines, where one mine is connected to another. A German boy found out that the mines were connected, informed A, A told B, but it was a little far away, B was too absorbed to hear, and then bang, B was killed.

A and B are twin brothers and have a good relationship.

Near the place where they removed the mines, there was a family, a woman and a daughter. At first the German boys had nothing to eat, and one of them went to the woman's house to steal some food to eat, and then vomited collectively the next day. The Danish officer took one of the boys to the woman, who sneered at the incident.

Later, the woman's girl strayed into the minefield, and the woman turned to the German boys for help, and they helped her. A was lying on the bed at first, then he walked into the minefield, walked to the little girl, and chatted with him for a while. Because B had chatted with this girl before, because he was too hungry, he stole the girl's bread. After they rescued the little girl, A refused to follow the safe route. Staying in place for a while, A walks in the opposite direction, after less than 10 steps, bang, it explodes.

One night, British officers passed by, released the German boys, urinated on one of them, and mocked them. Later, the officer came out and said a few words before the British left.

The Danish officers had said before that they could go home after demining. It was the British who told him so. Later, the British said that the German boys were going to clear mines elsewhere. Danish officers were deceived.
