There may be a misunderstanding here. The Allied armies entered Germany in order to defeat the country militarily, not in order in liberate people from concentration camps: that was, so to speak, an added bonus.

There were 18,200,000 listed personnel in all branches of the German military at the time (wermacht, luftwaffe, etc). Bearing in mind some of those were captured citizens of other nations, or volunteers not German, that number isn't 100% accurate. Over 5,500,000 of that number were killed. Well over 6,000,000 wounded. So of that number, roughly 6 million remained totally unscathed. All in all, roughly 13 million German soldiers survived the war.


What is the conflict in the story of truce in the forest?

"Truce in the Forest" is a story that takes place during World War II. Independent of each other, some Allied soldiers and German soldiers showed up and knocked on the door of a cabin. The Allied soldiers showed up first and one was wounded. The woman invited them in, even though they were the enemy, and offered to feed them. Later, when the German soldiers knocked, she let them in too, but told them there would be no trouble. She took their weapons, then took the weapons of the Allied soldiers and fed them all. The conflict in the story is the fact that the soldiers were on differing sides. Under different circumstances, they likely would have tried to kill each other.
