In a daze, Yang Mei woke up at noon.
The medicine I brought with me wasn't wasted, and my body doesn't hurt that much anymore. The high fever has also subsided, so I've managed to save my own life.
In this era, there was no anti-inflammatory medicine. Wounds becoming inflamed and feverish were life-threatening. In this era, the highest cause of death among soldiers was not being directly shot by bullets or blown up by shells, but dying from wound inflammation.
However, there are also benefits. This body has never used similar anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs, so it doesn't have any drug resistance. Therefore, ordinary medicine has a great effect on this body. Muyang is feeling much better now.
At this moment, Mu Yang finally had the mood to carefully think about the current situation and his task.
It is now June 10, 1918. In five more months, Germany will collapse with a loud noise, and Kaiser Wilhelm II will flee to the Netherlands for refuge, and the House of Hohenzollern will fall.
However, before that, Germany launched the Second Battle of the Marne, also known as the Reims Battle, which was Germany's last offensive battle. By August 6th, it ended with Germany's defeat, and thus the entire World War I entered its countdown phase.
These contents were all seen by Muyang before he crossed over, although he didn't know what kind of person he would be reborn as. However, since the second world task was 'European War World', he had to take a look at the history of World War I, so that he wouldn't be completely in the dark.
The German army broke through the lines between Soissons and Reims, approached the Marne River, preparing to take new positions, Joseph Williams was wounded by a shell during this defensive battle.
Moyang remembered that in the book he read, it was written that within two months after that, the German army would break through the Marne River defense line. After that, the Allied forces launched a counterattack and captured the German-occupied Marne salient, Amiens salient and Saint-Mihiel salient. The German army suffered heavy losses and retreated to the Hindenburg Line. On August 4, this battle ended with the defeat of the German army. From then on, Germany's defeat in the war was settled.
Alright, this major battle has nothing to do with Mu Yang, he is just a lieutenant colonel and the commander of a company with over 100 soldiers. Even if it were his own over 100 soldiers, Mu Yang wouldn't dare guarantee how many are left now. He should not have the mind of the Western Front Commander-in-Chief.
He came over just to do his job, he didn't have any intention of turning the tide of the battle, and he couldn't even if he wanted to, so just focus on your own task.
"Save Taylor Swift's life."
Who is Allen Swift, according to Mu Yang's speculation, he was probably a soldier or officer, but definitely not at the level of commander-in-chief, because among the few high-ranking officers of the Allied Forces that Mu Yang remembered, there was no name called Allen Swift.
Saving lives, is this guy going to sacrifice himself in battle? How can I save him myself? In such a large-scale battle, the battlefield is completely a slaughterhouse. What can my little power do? Can it withstand bullets flying around or shells passing by? Mu Yang said it's very difficult.
Forget it, let's first ask who Allen Swift is, with hundreds of millions of troops stationed here, it's also like finding a needle in the ocean.
But for now, let's focus on getting some food first, as it's already noon and Muyang's stomach is growling with hunger.
Even if Murong Yang returned to modern times, ate his fill and crossed back over, this body would still feel hungry. Therefore, Murong Yang now urgently needs to find something to eat to fill his belly.
Mo Yang shifted his body and found that Xiao En, who lived next to him, was sitting on the edge of the bed. He might have heard Mo Yang's movements and turned his head around, looking at Mo Yang with one eye, then revealed a somewhat discernible smile.
"Hello Sean."
"Officer, you're really able to sleep, it's already noon."
"Shawn, can you help me out?"
"Please go ahead, sir."
"I'm a bit hungry, can you help me find something to eat?"
"Ah, right, you haven't had lunch yet, you must be starving. We just finished eating lunch and the food was really good, much better than on the battlefield. There was bread, butter, lettuce, a few slices of sausage, and some delicious vegetable soup with pepper powder, it tasted great." Xiao En said with a lively expression, not looking like an invalid at all.
Mu Yang's face darkened for a moment, "Xiao En, can you help me get one?"
"Oh, okay, I'll go now." Shawn said, and then got out of bed with a limp to get what Muyang wanted to eat.
Time was not long, Sean carried a metal tray and a metal teapot.
"Sir, how would you like to eat?" Mu Yang is now lying on his back in bed.
"Can you help me get up?"
Xiao Yang put the things in his hand on his bed, stretched out his hand to hold Mu Yang's arm and moved it up. "Ah" Mu Yang let out a painful hum. It didn't hurt when he wasn't moving, but now that he was, it still hurt like that.
"Sorry, sir, did I hurt you?" Shawn said apologetically.
"It's okay," Muyang said through gritted teeth.
Sean has a lot of strength, it can be seen that his physique is good, otherwise he wouldn't have been injured and still so spirited.
He put a pillow behind Muyang's back and let Muyang lean against the wall at the head of the bed, and Muyang finally felt a little more comfortable.
"Officer, I specifically told the chef about your situation. You see, the standards are much higher here. The butter on the bread isn't that artificial stuff we usually eat. There's also lettuce and a few slices of sausage. The chef even added an extra piece of canned ham just for you. And look, instead of soup, it's cocoa, hot cocoa, it must be delicious." As he said this, Xiao En unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Thank you, Shawn." Murong Yang sincerely expressed his gratitude, which made the man smile.
The food wasn't as delicious as Shawn said, but Muyang still ate it up because this body needed the energy.
After dinner, it was still Shawn who helped Muyang clean up.
For this somewhat simple-minded fellow, Muyang truly had some affection for him.
After finishing his meal, Mu Yang thought of cigarettes, but his current body absolutely did not allow him to smoke. Mu Yang listlessly looked around at the situation.
This was indeed a church, and the wounded soldiers were placed in the great hall of the church. Shawn's bed was on the right side of Mu Yang, which was one side of the door. On the left side was the front desk of the church, with a statue of Jesus Christ on it, looking down at everyone in the house.
Muyang drew a cross on his chest.
He is not a believer, but he has respect for faith.
But this body of Major Joseph Williams was a devout Christian.
Xiao Yang returned and asked Mu Yang, "Sir, are you going back to lie down?"
"It's still no good, I'm too tired. I want to stay like this for a while. Shawn, let's chat, why did you join the army?" Murong asked.
