Welcome to 19th-century Europe, where strength reigns supreme

Valentina participated in the Battle of Wiesenberg with the large army. She saw the true strength of the French army. The French army's cannons and rifles were not inferior to the Prussian army, and their fighting will was not as fragile as she had heard.

The Sixth Division of the Third Army she was in directly faced Douai's French Second Army. She hid in the trench and felt countless bullets grazing her head. This battle lasted for many days. Lentina experienced the aftermath of war firsthand.

She thought war was terrifying... because she might die in the next second. One of her comrades was hit by a French bullet the moment he looked out, and the life that had just been alive disappeared in front of her.

The battle lasted for a whole day and night, and the fighting between the two sides never stopped. Valentina's position was that of a medical soldier, responsible for transporting the wounded soldiers back on the battlefield, giving them simple bandaging and disinfection, which required being at various locations at all times. Moving back and forth in the trenches, the possibility of being hit by artillery shells is high.

But compared to positions such as infantry and messengers, the tasks of medical soldiers are much safer because they can always hide under the trenches.

On the first day, she and another medical soldier transported more than fifty seriously injured soldiers to the rear. This was a chore, but Valentina still completed it brilliantly, but many soldiers were rescued from the battlefield. Even if they are injured, they will die due to various reasons, and because there are too many wounded soldiers, after the medicine is used up, those soldiers who lack medicine can only wait to die.

When the Prussian army broke through the Wiesenberg Fortress, they had no time to be happy. Moltke received the information and McMahon retreated towards the town of Fleschwiller in the west. If he waited for McMahon to set up a defense line there, the Prussian army would not be happy. It would be much more difficult for the army to rush down.

Therefore, Moltke ordered not to rest. While the French army was not yet stable, he immediately pursued and harvested the French army along the way.

This made the already tense people feel extremely stressed. After the battle, they didn't even have a chance to breathe. They had to fight forward immediately. The soldiers who had just crawled out of hell were already frightened by the horror of the battlefield. .

At this time, the captain of the team said, "You have already gone through forced march training when we were training in the military camp. Don't sigh. You are tired after only two days of fighting. When we fought fiercely with the Austrian army, you were still lying on the ground." I’m sleeping in bed.”

And those recruits who usually shouted in support of the war are now hiding in the broken eaves and broken walls, praying that they can survive until tomorrow, while some recruits are excited and have trouble sleeping and eating.

After a whole day of high-speed marching, on the night of March [-]st, the Prussian reconnaissance force discovered the French outpost. The French army was ready. The French Second Division bought them time and was immediately stopped by McMahon. Realize.

The French army dug trenches before the Prussian army attacked, laid out sandbags, and brought machine guns and artillery to the front of the formation. The division commander asked the entire division to rest on the spot and launch an attack immediately the next morning.

Valentina originally wanted to take a rest, but at this moment, she saw Juliet shivering in the corner.

Valentina looked at her and patted her shoulder, "Are you okay?"

"Lenna...are you still alive?"

"Ah."

"Great...Jutta, Karen, and Dietlind are all dead, killed by the French right in front of me..."

"Is that so? Really? They are all dead..." These are the names of Valentina's former roommates.

The mortality rate of new recruits on the battlefield is the highest. No matter how well they are trained in the army, they may not be able to do it on the real battlefield. Not everyone can rush all the way like the Son of Destiny and nothing will happen.

The most dangerous training in the military camp is the safest. There will definitely be certain safety measures. The instructors will not really play with you and risk your life. Otherwise, you, a new recruit, will have to burp before going to the battlefield. Lose.

Juliet covered her mouth. She felt nauseated now when she recalled the scene. The French cannon blew up a whole person into four pieces. That scene was definitely the most terrifying scene she had ever seen in her life.

Valentina has killed people before and has seen some stomach-churning scenes. She is relatively able to control her emotions, but for people who have spent the first half of their lives in a greenhouse, this kind of stimulation may be difficult to overcome. accepted within a short period of time.

War is a good way to kill fear and enthusiasm. Perhaps nothing in this world is more terrifying than enemy shells.

……

The next day, the Battle of Volta broke out. This was the most brutal battle the Prussian army had ever fought. In this battle, the Prussian army lost nearly [-] people, while the French army lost [-] people. They faced a Prussian army several times their own. The French army was not timid at all and fought against it desperately, and finally successfully repelled the Prussian army.

In this battle, there were a large number of casualties, and a Prussian vanguard unit was almost wiped out. Valentina was lucky to escape the crisis. She was transferred to the rear to treat the wounded soldiers, so she did not have to go to the battlefield.

Nursing work is also very important. It can significantly reduce the death rate of soldiers. One of the soldiers impressed Valentina the most. His whole body was covered with bandages, and his left leg was completely blown to pieces. He relied on temporary amputation. It didn't continue to get worse.

But due to the lack of medicine, he is now suffering from a high fever, with his body temperature once higher than [-] degrees. Valentina has no choice but to use ice water to cool him down.

Valentina looked at his appearance and felt a little uncomfortable. He should have had a bright future.

"Hello, doctor?" he said in a weak tone, "can I survive until tomorrow?"

"Without anti-inflammatories, you might not survive tomorrow..." Valentina told him the desperate fact.

"Is that so? It's such a headache... If I don't go back, a few people will definitely be very sad... Doctor, is there nothing we can do?"

"Sorry……"

"Is that so? Can you write a letter for me? I want to tell my family..."

"Well, of course..." Valentina used a pen to write down what he dictated on paper. The content was very short, only six or seven lines. She only briefly explained herself and comforted her family.

There is no fancy language, just an ordinary letter home.

"Is that all right?"

"Well, that's enough, they will understand me." Valentina folded the paper and placed it on the soldier. He held the paper with his bandaged hand, his right hand There are only three fingers left, which looks a bit thrilling.

"God bless you."

Valentina bowed to him and moved on to the next wounded man.

In the dark and damp fortress, the smell of blood and medicinal wine irritated Valentina's nose, and she didn't sleep all night.

The next day, the soldier died and was lying on the cold floor. Valentina took the dog tag off his neck and tied the letter to it. She didn't know if the person who recovered it could see it. .

No...the recycling people shouldn't be able to recycle this kind of stuff...
