As we entered October, the world war was once again in trouble.

When Qin Zhiyuan led the Foreign Legion to a brilliant victory at Reims, the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force, Hagrid, seemed to be stimulated, and he ordered to intensify the attack, at least to achieve a victory comparable to Qin Zhiyuan's.

But that's easier said than done.

The British, led by Plummer, won successive victories at the Battle of Maine Road and the Battle of Bolliganwood. The Bavarian prince could not bear the successive defeats of his troops and personally came to the front to supervise the battle.

This restored some morale to the Germans, and in the ensuing Battle of Brookson, the Germans suffered 30,000 casualties themselves, while the British also suffered 25,000 casualties.

It seems that the battle is back to the pre-1917 meat grinder mode.

Neither the British nor the Germans could afford such heavy casualties.

So the British changed their players again, from Gough to Plummer, and now it was the turn of Arthur Kerry from Canada.

The Canadians performed well, and they played the most glorious victory of the year for the British army in the Battle of Vimy Ridge.

This should have been a big book, but the former glory has now been overshadowed by Qin Zhiyuan's aura and has become dim.

Arthur Kerry's troops were all from the British colonies, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and so on.

Of course, the British colonial army was much more than that, and there were also a large number of Indian troops and Gurkha rifle battalions active in the European battlefield, which was the last capital of the British, and Haig would not assign these troops to Arthur Kerry.

It was also a colonial power, the British recruited millions of troops from the colonies to fight in Europe, but the French could only form a few regiments, and if it weren't for Qin Zhiyuan's birth, even the size of the Foreign Legion would not have exceeded 50,000.

From this point it is clear that the French were far behind the British in running the colonies.

Arthur Kerry carefully studied the current standoff situation and then took a conservative approach. Arthur Kerry estimated that if the offensive were to continue under the current circumstances, the strategic objective of capturing Paschal would perhaps reach 16,000 casualties.

Despite a premonition that there would be heavy casualties, Arthur Kerry did not refuse the mission and still led his troops to attack.

As Arthur Kerry had predicted, the first attack suffered heavy casualties, but it also inflicted the same losses on the Germans.

Three days later, the second offensive resumed, again with the same heavy losses, and even no improvement. Four days later, the third offensive began......

By mid-October, after a bitter battle, the exhausted Germans were driven out of the Paschand territory. As Arthur Kerry had predicted, the British suffered 16,000 casualties, mostly Canadians.

This led directly to the trial of Arthur Kerry after his return to Canada after the end of the World War.

For now, of course, Arthur Kerry is a British hero and has not been harshly criticized.

By the time of the victory at the Battle of Paschan, the British had lost a total of 250,000 men, and the Germans had suffered similar losses. The Germans lost 118 divisions, many of which were dead and wounded, and the British appeared to have only 43 divisions, but because of the constant replenishment of colonial troops, the British had much more living force than the Germans.

Haig even declared victory before the campaign was fully over, because the Allies needed a big victory to boost the morale of their troops.

As recently as October, the Germans and Austrians joined forces to launch the Battle of Caporetto, the twelfth Battle of Isonzo.

Before the campaign began, the German-Austrian army had 33 divisions and the Italians 41 divisions.

After the campaign was launched, to everyone's surprise, the battle turned into a major rout.

Because 6 German divisions were stealthily involved in the battle, the Italians surrendered 200,000 men in three days, lost 1,800 cannons, and the remaining 800,000 fled. Then in the ensuing battle, the Italians lost a total of 460,000 men, including 265,000 prisoners.

The result was unbearable for everyone, the Italian commander-in-chief Cardona, who liked to shoot every ten people, was dismissed, the Roman government fell, and the mess was eventually taken over by Britain and France.

As a result, General Fayolle, commander-in-chief of the French army's western front, and General Plummer, who had just made phased progress, immediately received orders that they would lead five French and five British divisions through the tunnel under the Albis Mountain to the Piave River to establish a defensive line and assist the Italians in strengthening their defenses.

It seems that the progress made by Qin Zhiyuan and the British army through a series of victories was completely lost by the Italians.

It's not all bad news, as in mid-October, there was finally good news in Corsica.

In fact, as early as July, penicillin research was in a state where success was possible at any time.

The first finished products were used in experimental mice, then monkeys, orangutans, and then German prisoners of war.

Since the beginning of the war, France has captured about 400,000 German prisoners of war, nearly half of which were captured by Qin Zhiyuan this year.

These prisoners of war were widely used for mining and road construction, and were engaged in heavy manual work.

After Crown Prince Wilhelm was captured, he visited more than a dozen German prisoner of war settlements within half a month, and then submitted a request to the French government to change the living conditions of prisoners of war.

As a prisoner of war, it is strange to be able to make such a request.

But what is even more strange is that the French government actually accepted the request of Crown Prince William, and the labor intensity of German prisoners of war was reduced, and their lives were improved.

Crown Prince Wilhelm's prestige among German prisoners of war rose sharply for a time, which was a pleasant surprise.

Under the joint operation of Qin Zhiyuan and Crown Prince Wilhelm, some German prisoners of war were transferred to Corsica for resettlement, on the one hand, to serve their sentences, and on the other hand, to help Corsica in construction.

Mary and Potlaim were overjoyed by the fact that they not only provided the prisoners of war with a relatively superior living environment, but also referred to the level of the boot camp as much as possible in all aspects of the supplies, except for the absence of alcoholic beverages, basically what was in the boot camp on Corsica, the prisoners of war had it.

Corsica is now mostly populated by newcomers, who have just arrived in a strange place, and instinctively maintain a tolerant and friendly attitude towards the people and things around them.

Especially the Chinese who came from the Far East, although the Chinese who are accustomed to living a hard life are diligent and thrifty, they will definitely not be stingy.

The Chinese who take the family as a unit are also accustomed to sharing, and if they do something good at home, they must call their neighbors to share together, and their hospitable nature has won universal praise.

Moreover, the Chinese, who themselves suffered from discrimination, were not able to maintain basic friendliness to anyone, even the German soldiers who had fought with their husbands or sons, which made the German prisoners of war feel warm.

The German prisoners of war were engaged in construction work on the island of Corsica, and it was inevitable to carry and carry them, and since they were all manual work, they could be injured.

One day in mid-August, a German prisoner of war was injured while transporting construction supplies, and the wound became infected and pus.

If normal procedures are followed, such injuries usually require amputation.

However, when the injury was reported to Mao, Mao, approached Sandy and asked for penicillin, which had not yet been verified, to be given to the casualty.

"Directly on humans? No, absolutely not! This drug has not yet been validated, no one knows what will happen, and we are responsible for the patient. Sandy directly refused.

"It is precisely because of the responsibility to the patient that I ask for the use of this drug on the patient. The wound on the patient's leg has become infected, and it is both lower limbs, and if it is not treated in time, the patient's legs will be amputated, and you should know what this means for the patient. "Mao Shiba, no matter what kind of medical ethics and fashion, as long as this "money string" thinks of the beautiful "money" scene depicted by Qin Zhiyuan, he can't wait to put this medicine on the market tomorrow.

"Amputating both legs, after all, life is still alive, it's much better than trying to lose your life." Sandy is insisting, and she has now confirmed that this is indeed a project that touches the dynamite prize, so there is no room for slackness.

"Life is incomplete without legs, the patient may become a burden to the family, a burden to society, a heresy in the eyes of others, and no one has the right to decide the patient's future life, except for the patient himself." Mao Eighteen is now using a big hat to suppress people.

"But now penicillin has not reached the stage of clinical application, if something goes wrong, who is responsible for the patient's life?" Although Sandy also wanted to speed up the development of penicillin as soon as possible, Sandy wanted this "accelerated" process to be controllable.

"The patient himself will be responsible, so let's ask the patient himself and see what he decides, after all, the patient is awake now." Mao made a suggestion that Sandy couldn't refuse.

"Okay!" Sandy nodded in agreement.

At this point, there was really no need to push back, so Sandy and Mao 18 came to the hospital together and let the patients decide their own fate.

A 300-bed hospital has been built in Thunder City to provide medical care to patients in Thunder City and Trident City. Relative to the huge population base, and the ongoing war, a hospital is certainly not enough, so the expansion never stops.

It is expected that the hospital, as well as the supporting nursing home and rehabilitation center, will cover a total area of more than 1.5 square kilometers and will have 3,000 beds.

Most of the doctors in the hospital are Chinese, and there are also medical professors hired from France with high salaries, and this hospital is also an internship center for medical schools, and medical students usually stay in the hospital most of the time, ready to be known by teachers, and of course do some simple work.

The hospital now has more than 200 seriously wounded people who have been sent from the field hospital, most of them with physical disabilities, who will receive long-term treatment here.

The smashed German prisoner of war was also here.

After hearing Mao Eighteen's explanation, the choice of the German prisoner of war was not surprising, and he asked to be treated with penicillin, whether it was effective or not, and whether he himself would suffer a second injury, he would have no regrets.

So Sandy personally performed a skin test on the patient, and then injected penicillin.

The effect was very obvious, and from the evening onwards, the redness and swelling of the wound were significantly reduced, and the patient's symptoms of high fever began to subside.

On the third day, Mao Shibai personally got started, cleaned up the rotten tissue after the wound was infected, and re-sutured it for the second time.

That is, from August, penicillin entered the clinical stage.
