Superman

Chapter 44 Successful Triumph, Welcome Back

The next day, noon.

"Brigadier General Luke Cavill, and Captain Steve Rogers, they disappeared in the third area behind enemy lines. The reconnaissance team conducted a careful search and did not find any clues."

The sender reported the received news to Colonel Phillips, who was walking back and forth, anxious.

The latter was pale and said nothing.

The wrinkles on his face were squeezed into a ball, and his eyes were filled with anger.

The transmitter standing in front of him trembled, for fear that he would be affected by the innocent and become the object of the colonel's anger.

"Continue to let people start searching!"

Colonel Phillips slapped the table hard and gritted his teeth.

If Luke is still not found in the next twelve hours, then the military can only put him on the list of deaths.

Once this news spreads, it will undoubtedly cause a devastating blow to the morale of the Allied forces on the front line.

A war hero, a legend who was still working hard to promote his deeds a while ago, suddenly died in the hands of Hydra...

How to explain this?

I am afraid that when the time comes, not only the President will be furious, but the Allies will also be held accountable.

"This is terrible!"

Colonel Phillips sighed heavily.

He thought that Luke would have a longer-term development and a broader future.

But who could have expected that a rising star would fall completely before it radiated light!

Even if Luke had created an amazing miracle of conquering Italy, the possibility of surviving against the Hydra base with as many as six hundred people, as well as those giant tanks and energy guns, is still very low.

"The last reconnaissance plane is back..."

Carter hurried into the makeshift barracks tent holding a stack of blurry black and white photos.

"Still nothing was discovered! There was an astonishing outbreak in the Hydra base. The nearby buildings collapsed and collapsed, which also caused a wildfire... Fortunately, it did not spread."

When Colonel Phillips saw this British female agent, he was so angry that he said coldly: "What's the use of saying this, Agent Carter! We have lost a general! The Allies have lost a hero!"

"If you can notify me in time, notify the Allied Command, stop Luke's willful behavior! Maybe none of this will happen!"

"The military can't take Howard Stark, he is a well-known young and rich man in New York and the largest weapon sponsor of the Allies! But you are nothing!"

"Agent Carter, I hope you can think clearly about the consequences of doing things in the future... By the way, you won’t have a future. The Allied Command learned this news and must find trouble with the Strategic Science Corps. We will all be done together by then. !"

In the barracks tent, there was a storm of reprimand.

Colonel Phillips glared at the female agent in front of him, and lowered his voice: "I said many times, don't let personal feelings affect your work. This is the first lesson to be an agent!"

"I didn't, sir!"

Carter bit his lip and shook his head.

"Don't rush to deny it, I haven't said who it is, Luke, Rogers, or Howard Stark, the dude... Agent Carter, can you tell me who on earth caused you to lose your mind and risk yourself The risk of the military court help him?"

Colonel Phillips sneered constantly, and then added, "I said earlier that women shouldn't be involved in wars! Damn British!"

Faced with discriminatory words from his boss, Carter took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling, but he remained silent.

Just as Colonel Phillips was about to inform the Allied Command, the noisy noise outside reached the barracks tent where the atmosphere had fallen to freezing point.

Vaguely, applause and cheers could be heard.

"what happened?"

Phillips walked out of the barracks tent angrily, followed by Carter.

In front of the camp, the soldiers stood crowded in two rows.

On the tree-lined road not far away, two familiar figures appeared.

Luke and Rogers!

Superman of the Allied Forces, and Captain America!

A group of captured Allied soldiers followed behind them!

There was a huge tank rumbling further away, which seemed to be seized spoils.

"They are back!"

The soldiers were elated and looked at the captured soldiers with their chests and heads raised with energy guns in their hands with envious eyes.

They are like victors returning home in triumph, with great vigor and pride.

"How is this going?"

Colonel Phillips, who walked out of the barracks tent, asked in surprise.

Those captured soldiers not only returned smoothly, but also brought back the secret weapon of Hydra!

This is a great victory!

A victory for the Strategic Science Corps!

"It must be Superman! He led everyone to defeat the Hydra and rescued those compatriots!"

A soldier guessed excitedly.

The others nodded repeatedly.

The propaganda of the Allies these days has long made Luke's legendary image deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The people who returned to the camp were treated like heroes.

The impatient guy has already begun to inquire about what happened and how the captured soldier escaped from the Hydra.

Colonel Phillips, who had lost his temper just now, even came out to greet the team in person-of course he was mainly concerned about Luke's safety.

This young brigadier general, who is only twenty years old, is now a legend of the Allied Powers, a model of propaganda launched by the military, and a cult object of countless contemporary soldiers.

If Luke really had an accident and died on the front line, he would definitely cause a huge shock within the Allied forces!

Therefore, before he asked to rush to the front line, many senior executives disagreed.

Even President Roosevelt, who proposed to let Luke return to the battlefield, himself hoped that the young brigadier general would stay in the rear as a propaganda tool to stabilize people's hearts.

Luke, who just wants to lay a solid foundation, accumulate qualifications, and gain prestige, how could he accept this seemingly tempting suggestion.

Destroy the Hydra completely and lead the Allies to true victory.

As long as this matter is done, no one can accuse him of his achievements.

"You did a miracle again, Luke!"

Colonel Phillips looked excited when he saw Luke returning triumphantly.

As for Rogers on the side, he ignored it intentionally or unintentionally.

After all, the Allies only need one hero!

Just like in the eyes of the world, there has always been only one sun!

"Someone is injured and they need medical treatment. Also, Colonel, I was too reckless in this rescue operation. I will proactively declare this to the Allied Command."

Luke accepted the compliment indifferently.

After solving the four fortified fighters, he and Rogers rushed directly to the Red Skull's command room.

As a result, the latter had already taken a plane and fled with Cosmic Cube and Dr. Zola.

In addition, the base of Hydra is about to explode, it is difficult to continue tracking.

Therefore, Luke returned to the camp with only a group of captured soldiers and Rogers in a depressed mood.

Those giant tanks, as well as the energy guns snatched from the military factory, became their spoils.

"Mr. President, sitting in the White House, certainly would not have thought that he would receive your good news so soon!"

Colonel Phillips had a smile on his face, not seeing his previous anger at all.

With only two people, they completely destroyed the secret base of Hydra, took over the two military factories, and the six hundred na (na) defenders inside.

What an amazing record this is!

Intuition tells Colonel Phillips that Luke can do more than that!

When this war is over, he will get even higher honors!

The youngest major general in the history of the United States?

Even the general?

For the first time Phillips felt that his imagination was so barren.

"This is a big victory for the Strategic Science Corps! I will celebrate for you a little later!"

Colonel Phillips glanced at Carter beside him and said with a smile.

From the rank of officer, Luke is the highest officer of the camp.

He has the right to make any decision, except that he cannot disobey the direct instructions of the Allied Command.

But the young brigadier general didn't have the ambition for a while, so he turned his face on his face and put on airs.

On the contrary, Luke maintained an approachable and friendly attitude, whether he treated his former friend Rogers or his former boss, Colonel Phillips.

Reduce your aggressiveness and let those military leaders who are dissatisfied with them relax their vigilance.

This is his true thoughts.

"Anything you want to tell me?"

Luke saw Carter in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Welcome back."

The glamorous female agent was silent for a long time and said such a sentence.
