Chapter 0901: Funeral and the Second Battlefield

When Li Zitao arrived at Skunk, there was silence in the huge international experimental center.

The whole world seemed to be immersed in mourning.

Agents from the FBI and CIA were also on the scene, and all sorts of luxury and official cars were parked outside.

People from all over the world spontaneously gathered around the airport runway.

The once milky white observation deck next to the airport is now pitch-black char, and the wreckage of the plane remains inside.

Danny opened the way in front of him, and when he learned that it was Li Zitao who came, people came spontaneously, and the general manager of Skunk also hurriedly stepped forward.

"Boss. Kelly Johnson appeared in front of him with a blue face.

"Yes. Nodding indifferently, Li Zitao looked at the wreckage and said, "What about the body?"

"In the laboratory... We couldn't see what it looked like before, so we asked someone from the funeral home to clean it up. Johnson whispered with his head down.

"Take me there. Li Zitao still can't believe that the scientific giant who thought he had been saved by him died because of an accident.

"Is this the power of fate?" personally experienced this kind of thing, coupled with a strong historical trajectory, which made Li Zitao more and more in awe of it.

Seeing Tesla's corpse with his own eyes, it is completely lost from what it used to be.

To put it more directly, there is no longer a human figure.

The whole body is dry, charred, and exudes a faint smell of flesh and stench.

Judging from his body shape, he is about the same size, and the rest believe that the FBI and CIA have verified it.

"Tia. Li Zitao asked people to cover the white cloth, beckoned behind him and walked to the window.

Opening the window to breathe in the fresh air, Li Zitao said softly: "The funeral is arranged by the secretary's room... Be low-key, but you can't miss it. ”

"Okay, boss. Tia thought for a moment and asked, "The guests here?"

"Everyone who comes today can be there. After experiencing Wise's death, Li Zitao didn't have much emotion about it.

Once a person dies, even he will not be able to escape, but sooner or later.

Tesla will become a legend in this life, and he will be known and remembered by countless people in the future.

However, Li Zitao does not intend to let him remain unknown for half a century.

He decided to give the Los Angeles News Corporationa new task, to find someone to write a biography of Tesla in the newspaper.

Since he can't change his fate, let his name spread throughout the world, which is the only thing he can do for him.

"Charlie..."Little John, who hadn't been out and about for a long time, also appeared in Skunk.

Naturally, his arrival is not only to mourn Tesla, but also to the huge interests involved in his sudden death.

You must know that according to their agreement, Tesla's share of profits is the sum of all the profits.

50 percent, what a huge profit in this.

And he has no wife, no children, and no immediate family.

That is, if he had not left a will, 50 percent of the proceeds would have gone into their hands.

"Uncle John, now is not the time. Li Zitao shook his head and said that he didn't want to talk about it at this time.

Death is great, although he also likes money, and eyes the 50 percent profit.

But at the very least, we have to wait until Tesla is buried and has had a funeral and prayer before talking about these issues.

Soon, Li Zitao saw the representative of Washington.

Roosevelt's Secretary of the Treasury, Hunter Morgenthau Jr.

Representatives of the McCormie and Wood families were also present at the same time, and as for the Rothschild side, Juliana informed the Secretariat and gave him full responsibility.

In the past two years, Juliana has been using the influence of her family and Li Zitao to frantically expand the power of her North American branch.

Every day is either on the plane or on the way to the airport.

Now, it is difficult for even Li Zitao to see her.

Tesla's funeral was scheduled for the next day, which was low-key but solemn.

The presence of representatives of all parties alone honored the cardinals who came to preside over the funeral.

However, Tesla's death is still a secret in front of the media.

Washington doesn't want to release this frustrating news at this special time.

You must know that Tesla's reputation in Europe and the United States and other countries has increased day by day in recent years, especially the addition of Skunk, which has allowed him to gain too much attention.

And the R&D of jet engines is even more affecting everyone's hearts.

The appearance of 'Lightning' made his name appear frequently in front of dignitaries from various countries, and many members of the alliance had high hopes for him.

They sincerely hope that this scientific giant can bring more advanced technology and achievements to the Union countries.

This allows the Allied States to defend against the FXS invasion and organize an effective counteroffensive as soon as possible.

Although the Soviets successfully fended off the aggression from FXS in Moscow, their situation was still uncertain.

Soviet leaders have been proposing that Britain and France and other countries should open a second battlefield in Europe to ease the pressure on the Soviet side.

At present, the German army is seeking to occupy the Caucasus in full force, which is naturally to obtain oil from the Baku oil fields and relieve energy pressure.

In order to cover this team, the Germans launched a fierce attack on Stalingrad-on-Volga, where several general battles broke out.

In the early stages of the war, in order to achieve their goals at a faster pace, the Germans launched a protracted and massive bombardment of Stalingrad.

But the Soviets had learned the lessons of their previous defeats, and they hid in pieces, patiently waiting for the German army units to enter the battlefield.

The ensuing war was brutal, with repeated battles for every street, house, and even ruins in and around Stalingrad.

The progress reports of the German army are often calculated in terms of 'meters'.

In the report it is always possible to see what kind of victory our army has won by launching a new offensive and moving forward to occupy 'a few meters'.

The brutality and gore of the battle pales in any language to describe it.

Both sides have invested more than 2 million troops on this battlefield, but there are still nearly a million troops on the battlefield.

The battle was a terrible nightmare for both the soldiers and the senior generals in command of the operation.

And in the Caucasus, there is also an elite German armored force, which is rushing towards their energy heart.

Such a dire situation brought the Soviet Union's need for a second battlefield to its peak.

But Britain and France had no time to take this into account, not because it was a deliberate attempt to weaken the Soviet Union, but because the time was not ripe.

In fact, Britain and France had already negotiated numerous times on the question of opening a second battlefield, and representatives of the Soviet Union were also present.

After several discussions, they all agreed that opening a second battlefield in France was the most ideal situation, and at the same time, it could play a key role in turning the situation around.

However, under the defense of enemy artillery, tanks and aircraft, they want to complete the beach landing and occupy the fortifications so that the follow-up troops can arrive safely.

This is a completely impossible task at the moment.

On the opposite side of the English Channel, there were 59 divisions under the command of Field Marshal of the German Western Front, Rundstedt, totaling about 760,000 men.

To make matters worse, the Germans, in order to resist the landing of the Allies, began to build permanent fortifications along the coastline from 41 years.

Those fortified fortresses and intricate moats were touted by the Germans as the 'Atlantic ramparts.' ’

As the name suggests, you can see how strong they are.

The situation of killing a thousand enemies with the German army and losing 800 is bound to be something that the allies do not want to see.

So, before launching an attack, they needed to find a way to divert the attention of the Germans.
