Chapter 0003 1916 - The Somme River

Just call me Wang Weiyi. What about the Ziguang Military Base after I leave

After a slight pain in Wang Wei's left arm, he knew that the task tracker had been successfully installed

Wang Wei took up the document and was suddenly astonished to find that he could actually understand German characters

What should I do after the Battle of the Somme?

There is none.

I have serious doubts about your intelligence. Xiao Ling actually joked during the meeting: "I have emphasized multiple times that the base will not directly intervene in the war"

The door of the base slowly opened, and a beam of sunlight streamed in, causing Wang Wei's eyes to be unable to adjust immediately.

However, the time and place of the purple light's traversal cannot be controlled in any way

Wang Wei, ah, no, Lieutenant Blame, do you have any other questions

Wang Wei Yi felt somewhat puzzled: "What if the real Ernst Bloch were to appear?"

The Ziguang Military Base will automatically activate its stealth device, and the base will not interfere in this war. Therefore, whatever choice you make now is entirely your own matter... Of course, if m.hetushu.com, your ammunition runs out, or if you need any essential assistance, you can still return here to receive my help

Damn, I have to stay here for more than two years

Wang Wei, do you have any further questions

In the mid-period of World War I, British and French forces launched an offensive against the German positions in the Somme region of northern France. The campaign began on June 24, 1916, and concluded in mid-November.

Can I call for support?" Wang Weiyi suddenly asked

Xiao Ling's words left Wang Wei somewhat bewildered. September 1916? The Somme River? Could it be that he had crossed over to the time of the Battle of the Somme during World War I?

The casualties on both sides in this battle exceeded 1.3 million, with 300,000 fatalities. It was the most brutal trench warfare of World War I and marked the first time in human history that tanks were deployed in actual combat

A long mechanical arm extended out

Alright, we will now begin the installation of the task tracker. To reiterate, the base will not directly intervene in the war; the purpose of the tracker is solely to confirm that you have completed the assigned tasks. Once you successfully hold the B position after achieving the specified objectives, new tasks will be communicated to you.

Before the second crossing is about to be completed, through my efforts, you have already mastered the German language, and it is with a Bavarian accent. From now on, you are a true German, and no one will doubt you. Oh, by the way, this is the weapon you will use

But I need support! Wang Weiyi appeared very stubborn: "Strange troops, strange companions, I cannot guarantee that I can complete the mission. Xiaoling, if I fail to complete the mission, we will both have to stay in this damned era."

This damned purple light, how did I end up traversing to World War I, and in the Somme no less? This makes the days and places of returning to my own era seem even more distant.

No matter what, since I have arrived, this era will surely bear my footprints

"I really want to see what you will look like after you transform into a human," Wang Weiyi said with a smile as he donned his military uniform, picked up his weapons and ammunition. "Alright, I am ready now"

A magazine was installed at the junction of the barrel and the body of the gun, and the submachine gun from the library department appeared before Wang Weiyi

You may set off now, Ernst Blume

Wang Wei, I have told you that in this era, you are no different from any ordinary person. You will be injured, you will bleed, and you may even die. You must take good care of yourself.

When one realizes that their fate can no longer be reversed, it is best to calmly adapt to this process

The second crossing is complete ... ... Date: September 11, 1916 ... ... Location: Somme ... ...

Wang Wei smiled with satisfaction

I do not wish to have excessive communication with those who feel too good about themselves. Please do not forget that I am merely a computer. I care about you because I fear that if you were to die, I would be left alone in this era, unable to return.

Xiao Ling fell silent for a moment, and when she spoke again, it was clear that she had compromised: "Alright, when you need support, you can call through the tracker, and I will dispatch aircraft or tanks from the military base for necessary reinforcements... but you must remember, no more excessive demands."

What is hetushucom.com? Wang Weiyi thought he had misheard: "Am I commanding a company of German troops to conduct defensive operations?"

In four days, humanity will use tanks for the first time in warfare, and in the subsequent battles, the British and French forces will successively break through the German Army's third defensive line at strategic points B, C, and F. Your task is to lead the 3rd Company of the Bavarian Infantry Regiment No. 16 of the German Army to hold the position at point B firmly

This is the Bergmann MP18 submachine gun, which was originally scheduled to be released two years later. It will now become your weapon, and the corresponding ammunition has also been prepared for you. The military uniform tailored to your physique is in the cabinet behind you

You will remain here until November 1, 1918. By that time, upon completing your mission, you will be able to return to the base. Ziguang will conduct a new traversal, and hopefully, we will have good fortune then

Wang Wei Yi still could not adapt to this name, but he knew that the time that belonged to him had finally arrived. He glanced at the military base, then looked outside, and then strode out.

Yes, your name is Ernst Blame, and you were severely injured on September 3 during the third offensive launched by the Anglo-French forces, while serving as the company commander of the 3rd Company alongside Commander Hess. Consequently, the 16th Regiment appointed a new company commander, Ernst Blame; this is his photograph

No, he will never appear. When you, who do not belong to this era, appear in this time and space, there will certainly be someone from this era who will be replaced by you; otherwise, it will cause temporal chaos... Alright, your documents have been completed...

Complete the task, then embark on a new journey; one day, you will return to your own era

With a loud bang, Wang Weiyi once again felt a violent tremor

A German officer with an East Asian appearance appeared on the computer; if it were not for his German uniform, at first glance, he would not look significantly different from an East Asian person

Wang Wei's face suddenly broke into a mischievous smile: "Xiao Ling, you care about me so much, have you fallen in love with me?"

Xiao Ling's subsequent words also confirmed Wang Wei's thoughts

I have arrived, the Somme River; I have arrived, 1916; I have arrived, the First World War

Indeed, it is a weapon that is slightly ahead of the current era, Wang Weiyi murmured to himself
