  Dew drops moistened the entire city, and the earth awoke in a misty veil. People who had been reveling all night got up early, walking on the road with a hint of disbelief that happiness had come so suddenly. Women carried baskets out of their doors, with enchanting smiles on their faces. Ah... we finally don't have to live in fear and anxiety anymore.

  People were amazed to find that at every intersection, two soldiers of the national defense army stood upright. These soldiers obviously hadn't slept all night, their faces were extremely tired, but they still maintained a perfect military posture, standing at attention with guns, looking forward with tired and vigilant eyes.

  "They stood for us all night. Soldiers, the soldiers of our motherland..." People's eyes were moistened as they passed by, looking at the soldiers with respectful gaze, deeply moved in their hearts.

  The military vehicle carried the soldiers who were changing shifts, they saluted each other and then swapped positions. The soldiers who had been relieved walked with a stiff posture, having stood all night, their entire body hadn't moved for a whole night, suddenly having to walk, their muscles and bones felt sore from the sudden activity. This bit of pain was nothing, they were delighted by the respectful glances from the civilians, perhaps they would complain when they returned to the barracks, but in front of the civilians, they wouldn't dare damage the honor of the national defense army.

  The military vehicle carried away the exhausted soldiers, and the soldiers who came to take over continued to stand still, vigilantly looking forward, their eyes as sharp as eagles, their majestic physique and high chest, all emitting an aura of 'safety'.

  "Good soldier!" The men suddenly had an impulse, they wanted to join the army and be looked at with respectful eyes.

  "With them around, we'll always be safe!" That's what everyone thought.

  People dare to speak out loud now, which was not the case in the past Rhineland, where speaking loudly was considered a "noise crime". Nowadays, they can finally speak loudly under the protection of their country's soldiers, laugh when they want to laugh, cry when they want to cry, and walk with their heads held high in the middle of the pedestrian path, without having to carefully follow along the wall, fearing being beaten by military police.

  "It's great to be alive! It's even better to live under the protection of our country's soldiers!" They looked up at the sky, which was gray and showed signs of rain, but in their eyes, the sky was clear. The soldiers standing guard with their eyes level, people silently cheered: they were like sunshine!

  At 10 o'clock in the morning, the sky finally floated down with fine rain. People on the streets took shelter under eaves or in roadside shops, laughing "haha" happily as their companions got drenched by the rain.

  "Gentlemen, would you like something to drink?" Oh, this is a coffee shop.

  Pedestrians taking shelter from the rain think it won't stop so soon, and those in a good mood tell the boss what flavor of coffee they want, willing to spend a little money to reward themselves when they're happy.

  The boss greeted his colleagues and smiled: "Everyone is happy today, I'll treat all the gentlemen and ladies here to a drink!"

  "Oh! Thanks boss!" The unexpected surprise made the people taking shelter from the rain even happier, they thought: if there was beer it would be even better.

  The boss not only prepared a cup of strong original bean coffee for each person, but also gave away some small pastries. In his words: as long as you remember my coffee shop and come to patronize it every day, haha... these losses will be made up quickly.

  The boss's creativity was successful, at least the people here have already remembered the name of this coffee shop in their hearts. With enthusiastic bosses and not bad coffee and pastries, they are willing to come here for consumption in the future.

  It's been a long time since people have enjoyed sipping coffee, eating pastries, and sitting in the warmth of their homes while gazing out at the misty streets on a rainy day. When they calm down to take a look, they find that the streets of our small town are actually so beautiful.

  "They... our brothers are standing in the rain..." A middle-aged man from the Mediterranean suddenly shouted loudly, touching his sparse hair and stood up.

  People looked in the direction that the middle-aged man of 'Mediterranean' was pointing, they couldn't see very far on the rainy and blurry street, but vaguely saw two people standing at the intersection.

  "They shouldn't be out in this rain, they should have gone inside somewhere?" a woman tried to explain.

  "No! We also saw them, they are our soldiers, still standing guard in the rain!" some people emphasized.

  At the intersection, German soldiers stood quietly in the rain, their military posture still standard. When the raindrops hit the 33-type steel helmet, they made a "ding" sound. The soldiers let the heavy rain pour down on them, and their eyes were so uncomfortable with the rainwater that they didn't even want to wipe it away. A pair of red eyes stared vigilantly ahead.

  The soldiers' gray uniforms were completely soaked, sticking to their bodies, not to mention how uncomfortable they felt. Their underwear was also completely wet, and the lower body's underpants stuck to their organs. The itching sensation of being stuck by clothes made them want to go crazy as normal men.

  "Can't move, unless there's a situation, can't move! The honor of the national defense army cannot be destroyed in my hands!" Sergeant Longdekele-Von-Jiete (Book friend inai9 participated) really wanted to reach out and adjust his crotch, damn it, he was still a virgin until now, didn't want a big rain to affect a certain man's function.

  Jie Te looked at his companion opposite him and found that he also had a weird expression, his posture was stiff to the extreme. He thought: His eggs must have also been stuck to his underwear.

  Schultz, a private first class (with Bookworm Rain Frog participating), was originally a duty soldier. To be honest, standing guard was not his turn at all. Unfortunately, he volunteered to stand guard on the street for an afternoon, just to experience the feeling of being respected by others again. The feeling of being respected by others yesterday made him unforgettable for life.

  Before the rain, Schultz's vanity was satisfied, and the respectful glances of passersby made him feel extremely comfortable. Normally unable to stand still for two hours, he stood perfectly still for four hours under their gaze. Now, he wants to move, very much wants to move a little, but thinking that countless eyes might be watching him, he holds back again, thinking: These are the happiest days of my life, I am willing to stand like this forever. Glory belongs to the Defense Army!

  In the rain, Jett and Schultz couldn't see very far. They simultaneously discovered many people approaching in the distance. The heavy rain made their field of vision extremely blurry, and they couldn't determine who the incoming people were. Residents should all be taking shelter from the rain. Thinking that it might be a counterattack by hidden enemies, they hastily grasped the rifles on their shoulders, half-squatted down, and aimed the muzzles at the sky, ready to fire warning shots at any moment.

  Schultz's finger had already touched the trigger when he suddenly released it again.

  The people who came were residents of Begor town, their clothes soaked in rain, looking at the defense military soldiers with a face full of emotion, some holding strange tools and wooden boards.

  In the "Mediterranean" middle-aged man holding in his hand is a hammer, this is not a murder weapon, his left hand is still holding steel nails, "Brother, we come to help you."

  Jett and Schultz exchanged a bewildered glance, neither of them having any idea what the residents were up to. The wooden planks they were carrying were clearly freshly dismantled from somewhere. They were led by the woman under the eaves of the house, where she conjured up steaming cups of coffee with a flourish.

  "We're on duty." Jet and Schultz were dying for a drink, their eyes never leaving the steaming cup of coffee, though they kept swallowing saliva, but the sense of honor of the defense army told them that they couldn't take it. They saw the woman's clothes stuck to her body, her curvaceous figure fully exposed, and they swallowed even more frequently, of course, the discomfort below was also more intense. The two didn't dare look anymore, quickly turning their heads to look at the residents who were busy in the rain, discovering that the residents were building small sentry posts, people working so diligently in the rain.

  "The people of Germany..." Jett and Schultz exchanged a look and grinned at each other in satisfaction.
