Chapter 19: The Nuclear Explosion Blows New York Harbor, and the U.S. Captain Retreats from a Strong Enemy (Part II)
The light and heat of the thunderstorm-class nuclear torpedo explosion flickered in the sky twenty kilometers off the coast of New York Harbor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info One hundred and sixty times the sun rises and the world falls into silence. Only the palpitating light and heat between heaven and earth remains.
It was like a camera with a high-powered flash, and it flickered again and again until the negative of the photograph was completely blown into a white patch, and it never stopped until then.
When everything stopped, and one hundred and sixty suns disappeared over the sea off New York, the Wyvern army that Zhang Tong had brought was gone. Originally, their place was empty, and there was no trace of their existence to indicate that they had been there, as if everything just now was an illusion of a magic show.
If it weren't for the spectative forces assembled off the coast of New York and the Docklands, almost everyone would have thought that what had just happened was just an illusion.
"Is this the end of it?, Zhang Tong died like this?" In the distance, the weather witch, who had just rushed back to the sea off New York Harbor, watched in disbelief at what was happening in front of her.
The Divine Spear Bureau has been fighting for decades, and how many times has it been impossible to catch it, let alone the Man who killed it has died like this? She felt that she was dreaming, but she pinched herself hard, and she gasped in pain. I found out that I was really not dreaming.
Did Lord Man really die?!In this violent nuclear explosion, he didn't leave even a trace of it, and died like this?!Just so suddenly.
Before, the weather was good for witches and swordsmen. It was still Shang Qi and Li Qianhuan, even Zheng Xian, the director of the Divine Spear Bureau who was tens of thousands of kilometers away, who had never thought that all this would be so simple.
To put it mildly, Zheng Xian didn't think about this operation to kill the Manchu at all. He is just pushing the boat to carry out this plan, and the biggest goal is to fight the Ten Rings Gang in Central Asia. Especially after Zhang Tong's dispatch, China and Latville joined forces.
The Ten Commandments Gang is too harmful on the Chinese border. The Divine Spear Bureau is determined to eradicate the Ten Rings Gang, as for whether Zhang Tong can be killed, he can really only do his best to obey the fate of heaven.
Perhaps, in the consideration of the Chinese side, perhaps Zhang Tong will make some big moves in New York, and even affect the United States. But all this is not much of a bad thing for China, because no matter how much dirt and nonsense there is, politics is always politics, and there is no warmth.
It's just that now everything has exceeded expectations, Zhang Tong was killed, and he was killed like this?! It's surprising! Anyway, the weather witch can't see the hope of Zhang Tong surviving again, it's a nuclear explosion!
Is there any country in society today that has dropped a nuclear bomb on the edge of New York Harbor? No! But now there is a group of aliens who have done so, and their nuclear bombs are clearly several levels higher than the nuclear technology that mankind has mastered.
The human world has no technology that completely controls the effect of the explosion and does not have any excess energy diffusion, and even paper research exists only in the deduction of science fiction.
And now that the Manchurian man died in this nuclear explosion, he should be dead, right?
Regardless of what the Weather Witch and these people think, anyway, when the nuclear explosion is over, Tony controls the remaining dozen or so steel armors, and mobilizes all the neutrino detectors that were originally on standby in New York Harbor to search and detect the waters just now.
Don't let go of any place, make sure that Zhang Tong is dead.
And Iron Man's current actions did not alarm anyone, or that everyone's eyes were not on him at all. Because the Wyvern Force is gone, the Manchurian is probably dead, but another threat remains.
That is the starfleet that has just defeated the Manju Wyvern force with a devastating force. This beautiful fleet with a white base and gold sides is still parked above New York Harbor.
And it is within the striking range of the US military's firepower. To fight or not to fight? It's a tough choice.
It was only from the moment the Wyvern Army, which had just become an adult, attacked New York City, that the news media throughout New York City went into frantic action. Don't underestimate the quality of professional journalists, there are many people who are willing to risk their lives to get first-hand news material.
More than 200 media outlets in more than 50 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, China, and France, have just broadcast the earth-shattering battle live in various ways.
The attack on New York is a matter for supporters of the United States, for abuse, and for those who sneer and feel that they deserve it. On the Internet, it is really a picture of all living beings.
But regardless of the attitude towards this matter, all eyes are now focused on that terrible starfleet. Several media outlets in New York with news helicopters have already dispatched helicopters. Those who don't have it are also trying to find a way to rent.
Because the North American aviation command and the command on the east coast were temporarily in chaos (it was not known how to deal with this group of fleets). Therefore, many news helicopters have blended into the army array and collected pictures from about a dozen kilometers away.
There are still people who want to get closer, but if the pilot doesn't do it, this distance is already super dangerous, and I am afraid that I may not be able to run away if I really fight.
Inside the Pentagon.
The Minister of Defense urgently convened a special military meeting.
The minister looked around at his subordinates: "Come up with a battle plan, generals." We are now facing the greatest crisis in the more than 200 years since the founding of the United States! You should have seen the picture off the coast of New York. ”
The words of the Minister of Defense silenced all the generals, and the silence of the scene was embarrassing, and the only sound that could be clearly heard was the wind from the air conditioning vent.
The embarrassing silence lasted thirty seconds, and the Minister of Defense was furious. He slammed the table and said, "Speak! Except for countries like Afghanistan and Iraq?" Can't our country's army even defend our country?! Generals! Look at the ranks on your shoulders!"
But still no one spoke, and the minister was somewhat frustrated. The days of high and powerful positions have made these generals more and more corrupt, and they no longer have the original hard work, except for bullying a small country, in the face of a real strong enemy like Mount Tai, but not many people have the fighting spirit. It would be nice if General Ross was here, the Secretary of Defense thought, at least General Ross is a real hard-blooded soldier who dares to fight and is not afraid of toughness.
While the Minister of Defense was thinking this, a relatively young brigadier general raised his hand. The Minister motioned for him to speak.
The brigadier general gathered his thoughts for a moment and said in a bad tone: "Your Excellency, with all due respect. Judging by the fighting situation on the ground, our army may not be able to stop such an offensive. As long as those fighters have the same number of nuclear bombs, then they can destroy all the important cities on our east coast!"
The brigadier general was telling the truth, but it made the minister very uncomfortable. Brigadier continued: "In my personal opinion, we don't think about how to resist, because most of us can't. Unless we drop a nuclear bomb directly on New York, it might be useful. Other than that, all we can do is retreat. ”
The Minister of Defense's cheek twitched: "You mean to run away?"
The brigadier general said indispensably: "I just received the news that the White House has issued an emergency evacuation message. The president and vice president, as well as key officials such as the secretary of state, have begun to evacuate Washington. Washington, D.C., which is less than 500 kilometers away from New York, has no strategic depth at all, and we should be prepared for the worst. Because this kind of thing like an alien invasion can't be undertaken by the United States alone, it's not a Hollywood movie!"
The Brigadier General's words were direct and to the point. The Minister of Defense looked at him speechless. And the words of this brigadier general represent the thoughts of countless people in this world.
This is really an alien invasion! What should the earth do? Will the army resist it? What should we do if it can't resist it?
After a brief loss of ability to think just after the nuclear explosion, people around the world who tuned in to the live broadcast of the Battle of New York pondered the question. Then some people began to rush into the nearest supermarket to buy all kinds of daily necessities including food, batteries, flashlights and sleeping bags.
And all the troops stationed on the shores of New York were also in disarray, and some wanted to open fire, even if they knew that it was impossible to hurt the opposing warship.
And some people think that since they are not angry with each other now, it is better not to provoke them easily.
This complex thinking is not only shared by the military, but also by journalists who come to gather news. No one knows what to do next.
And at this moment, a lonely figure flew out of the array. He stepped on the glitz wings produced by the Osborne Group, and wore the blue uniform that has been popular all over the world for 70 years.
The red, white and blue shield is behind his back, Steve Rogers, Captain America. He flew towards the starfleet without any weapons.
All the troops present, as well as the news media, received his message: "I'm Steve Rogers, and I ask everyone to cease fire and not anger each other." I'll find a way to talk to each other. If the negotiations break down and I am killed, then the army please do their duty, and all civilians should evacuate!"
Captain Rogers' words were as calm as explaining to his friend: I'll go to the convenience store around the corner and buy a piece of butter and come back.
But instead of going to the corner to buy butter, the captain is now going to come into contact with a group of powerful alien civilizations. While everyone was not composed, Captain Rogers continued to ascend with his wings.
Such a back figure appeared in the broadcast images around the world, a sturdy back wearing a blue uniform with a shield on his back. More than 70 years ago, this man saved World War II, is he going to save the planet again today?
Countless people began to pray for him.

At the Venus base, Dr. Hank used a tablet to connect to Earth's signal, which allowed both Li Jie and Professor Charles to see the news broadcast, as well as various online messages.
Li Jie glanced at Professor Charles and said, "Professor, if politics is a show, then I think Captain Rogers is probably doing a better job than the current politicians." A person who has been able to wit a villain like Red Skull for so many years is not a fool, after all, Red Skull is not a fool who will only attack the captain with a frontal attack. ”
"There was no shortage of political attacks on the captain back then, but they were defused by Captain Rogers one by one. ”
Hearing Li Jie say this, Professor Charles also smiled slightly: "Then we have to look at the level of the Great Prince of Asgard." I've heard you've rehearsed with Tony and Captain Rogers a lot of times. The result?"
Li Jie glanced at Professor Charles, and then said slowly: "I don't think it should be too bad, anyway, the current Thor has a divine light protection body, and he has just killed the Manchurian Lord and defeated the Flying Dragon Army, so people don't have time to think about many things." ”
"So this thing will give Captain Rogers enough political capital?" Professor Charles asked.
Li Jie nodded: "It's a lot, enough that any political system in the world, including the U.S. government, must face up to Captain Rogers' influence!"
…………
While Li Jie was talking to Professor Charles, the hatch of a starship slowly opened.
