III. 1916 – Somme!
"Boom", Wang Weiyi felt a violent vibration again.
"Time of completion of the second crossing, September 11, 1916, Somme"
Xiao Ling's words made Wang Weiyi a little confused. September 1916? The Somme? Did you travel to the Battle of the Somme during the First World War?
In the middle of the First World War, British and French troops attacked German positions in the Somme region of northern France. The campaign began on June 24 and ended in mid-November 1916.
The battle suffered more than 1.3 million casualties and 300,000 casualties, which was the most tragic positional battle in World War I and the first time in human history that tanks were put into actual combat.
How did this damn purple light shuttle himself to the First World War, and it was still in the Somme? In this way, it seems even more distant from the day and place when I returned to my own time.
However, the time and place of the purple light cannot be controlled in any way
Xiao Ling's subsequent words also confirmed Wang Weiyi's thoughts:
"In four days, humans will use tanks for the first time in war, and in the ensuing battles the British and French will successively break through the B, C and F strategic points of the German third line of defense. Your mission is to lead the 3rd Company of the Supplementary Battalion of the 16th German Bavarian Infantry Regiment to hold Point B."
"What?" Wang Weiyi thought he had misheard: "I commanded a company of the German army to conduct defensive operations? ”
"Yes, your name is Ernst Bramm, the commander of the 3rd Company, Hess, was seriously wounded in the third attack launched by the Anglo-French forces on September 3rd, so the 16th Regiment assigned a new company commander for them, Ernst Bramm, here is his photo"
A German officer with an Oriental face appeared on the computer, and if it weren't for the fact that he was wearing a German military uniform, at first glance, he would not look much different from an Oriental.
Wang Weiyi was a little puzzled: "What if the real Ernst Bream appeared?" ”
"No, he will never appear, when you who do not belong to this era appear in this time and space, there must be a person in this era who will be replaced by you, otherwise it will cause chaos in time and space, your documents have been made"
Wang Weiyi picked up the certificate, and he was suddenly surprised to find that he could actually understand German characters.
"Before the second crossing is about to be complete, through my operation, you have become proficient in German, and it is German with a Bavarian accent, and from now on you are a real German, and no one will doubt you. Oh yes, it's the weapon you use"
A submachine gun with a magazine mounted on the upper part of the junction of the barrel and the barrel appeared in front of Wang Weiyi.
"This is the Bergman MP18 submachine gun, which should have been available two years later, and now it will be your weapon, and the corresponding ammunition will be ready for you, and the military uniform tailored to your body will be in the cabinet behind you"
Sure enough, it is possible to use a weapon that is slightly ahead of the current era, Wang Weiyi muttered in his heart.
"Wang Weiyi, ah, no, Lieutenant Bream, do you have any questions?"
"Call me Wang Weiyi. After I'm gone, what about the Ziguang military base? ”
"The Purple Light Military Base will automatically enable the stealth device, and the base will never intervene in this war, so whatever choice you make now is your own business, of course, if you run out of ammunition, or need any necessary help, you can still come back here and get my help."
"Second question, what should I do after the Battle of the Somme?"
"You will stay here until November 1, 1918, and at that time, you can return to the base after completing the mission, and the purple light will make a new crossing, and I hope we will have good luck that time."
Hell, have to stay here for more than two years?
"Wang Weiyi, do you have any questions?"
"Nope."
"Okay, let's start installing the task tracker. Again, the base does not intervene directly in the war, and the purpose of the tracker is only to confirm that you have completed the assigned mission, and to relay the new mission to you after you have successfully held the B position. ”
A long mechanical arm stretched out.
After a slight pain in Wang Weiyi's left arm, he knew that the task tracker had been installed.
"Can I call for support?" Wang Weiyi suddenly asked.
"I have a lot of doubts about your IQ." Xiao Ling actually held a meeting and joked: "I have emphasized many times that the base will not directly intervene in the war." ”
"But I need support!" Wang Weiyi looked very stubborn: "Strange troops, strange companions, I can't guarantee that I can complete the task." Xiao Ling, if I can't complete the mission, we all have to stay in this damn era. ”
Xiao Ling was silent for a while, and when she spoke again, she had obviously compromised: "Okay, when you need support, you can call into the tracker, and I will send planes or tanks belonging to this era from the military base to provide necessary reinforcements, but you have to remember that you can't make any more excessive requests." ”
Wang Weiyi smiled with satisfaction.
When you know that your fate is irreversible, then adapt to this process with peace of mind.
Complete quests, then embark on a new journey back in time to one day return to your own time.
"Wang Weiyi, I told you, in this era, you are no different from any ordinary person, you will be injured, you will bleed, and even die, you must protect yourself."
Wang Weiyi's face suddenly showed a wicked smile: "Xiaoling, you care about me so much, are you in love with me?" ”
"I don't want to have too much communication with people who feel too good about myself, please don't forget that I'm just a computer. I care about you because I'm afraid that if you die, I'll have to stay alone in this era, and I won't be able to go back. ”
"I really want to see what you'll be like when you become human." Wang Weiyi smiled and put on his military uniform, picked up weapons and ammunition: "Okay, I'm ready." ”
The door of the base was slowly opened, and a ray of sunlight shone in, making Wang Weiyi's eyes unable to adapt for a while.
"You're ready to go, Ernst Braem."
Wang Weiyi still can't adapt to this name, but the time has finally come for him to know that the Tao belongs to him. He glanced at the military base, then outside, and then strode out of the city.
Here I come, Somme; Here I came, 1916; I'm coming, the first world war!
No matter what, since I have come, this era will always leave my steps!
