Section 66 Don't go
Hearing this, the long legs controlled their long sword and killed five or six pursuers, and at the same time glanced at Tom speechlessly: "You are the one who kills, not the one who is killed." Of course, it is impossible to understand that these pursuers do not see a little hope of victory, the despair of that time. ”
"Uhh
Tom was speechless for the long legs. After all, he is Tom White with shallow social experience, not extremely rich social experience and long legs. The battles he has participated in since he crossed into this world have all ended in victory. The despair and fear of the loser? Sorry, Tom really hasn't experienced it himself.
"Chief, your Blue Lantern Ring is really powerful and domineering..."
The pursuers in the vicinity fled, and the watchmen hiding in the surrounding buildings naturally gathered towards Tom. On the journey, he looked at the sledgehammer that was still hanging above Tom's head, three or four meters long and two or three meters wide, and the blue ring brilliance was conjured up.
"Envy? As long as you can pass the test of the Yao Room Phoenix, you can also get one. That's what I promised, and I mean what I say. Tom stretched his palm and shook the blue light ring on his ring finger at the journey.
"Now is not the time to say that, my lord..." Putting away the sword conjured up by his ring, his long legs glanced at Tom again. Then, he looked at the two brothers, Thunderbird and Journey:
"Take your men and hunt down the fleeing pursuers in the vicinity. Then, support the nearby watchers who are still fighting. Since these pursuers are here, don't let them go. ”
"Domineering..."
Tom looked at the Wonder Woman suit, with long legs that were even more heroic because of the victory in the battle. I couldn't help it, and gave her a thumbs up.
With a "snap", the long legs reached out and knocked out Tom's thumbs up, and said to Tom in disgust: "When is it, still making trouble?" Gather the people, let's go to the next area... ”
·····
Tom and the others were murderous and went to the next area. However, in the Pentagon, the previous military's operational command room, the air was once again stagnant.
"Can anyone tell me what these mutant demons are that use blue brilliance?"
With a cloudy face on his face and a book in his hand that recorded the latest battle situation, General Ross looked angrily at the five signal soldiers standing in front of him who were responsible for liaising with the front line of the battle.
In the face of General Ross's questioning, these five communication soldiers look at me, I look at you, and finally a male soldier stood up and replied: "I'm sorry, we don't know much about the general. We've only gathered this information from conversations with mercenaries. They say that the mutants use an indestructible and unbreakable blue glow. They simply can't be the opponents of these mutants. ”
"Invincible? And there's nothing to break? Still some? Are you sure these mercenaries are talking about mutants, not gods? Fiercely slapping the latest battle report in his hand on the table, General Ross's long-held anger finally broke out:
"A bunch of cowards, liars, if mutants are really that good. When Magneto was captured, Professor X was watched by us, and countless mutants were slaughtered by us, why didn't these mutants who were more powerful than God appear?
I think it's this group of mercenaries who are scared and don't want to carry out our orders. That's why such a group of mutants who are more powerful than God came out. Tell them, tell all the mercenaries, carry out my orders, hold all the mutants down. Otherwise, when this war is over, I will throw them all in prison. ”
The entire war room was instantly silent, and after a long time, a female signal soldier whispered: "The general's order, we have already conveyed it to those mercenaries." However, they all said that even if it was in prison, it was better than being killed by mutants. ”
"Uh..." General Ross, who was leaning back in his chair, couldn't stop panting. Hearing this, I couldn't even hold my breath. After a while, he waved his hand in annoyance to the five communication soldiers in front of him, signaling them to get out of here. Then, he looked at the other generals in the room:
"Mercenaries are unreliable, that's something I've emphasized early on. Did our soldiers withdraw? It seems that these mercenaries can't hold off the mutants for long. Nine thousand mercenaries are gone, but our three thousand soldiers must no longer be trapped in Hell's Kitchen. ”
Generals, look at me, I look at you, after a dozen breaths, one of the generals hesitated and said, "Not yet, our soldiers are still fighting with the gangsters and criminals in Hell's Kitchen." ”
General Rose's brow furrowed again, and he felt a wave of anger in his chest rush towards the Heavenly Spirit Gai. However, he endured it stubbornly: "What? Could it be that our soldiers are the same as those unorganized and undisciplined mercenaries? Would you rather go to court-martial than carry out my orders? ”
"That's not it, it's just that they really can't get out..."
With that, one of the generals stood up and handed General Ross a piece of information that had been sent a long time ago.
"What? Because our soldiers are carrying too much belongings, which has caused all the gangsters and criminals in Hell's Kitchen to attack? ”
Look at the paper. It is clearly written in black and white. General Ross instantly felt that his IQ was not enough.
"Huh, uh-huh..." The general who had previously handed the information to General Ross coughed, then explained:
"For some reason, the belongings of the big gangsters in Hell's Kitchen are some gold or jewelry. Although we soldiers obeyed your order to evacuate Hell's Kitchen, they were inevitably coveted by all the villains in Hell's Kitchen, with a large amount of possessions.
In addition, our battle with mutants has been going on so far, and there are quite a few gangsters in Hell's Kitchen who have been involved. As a result, there aren't many people in Hell's Kitchen right now who believe what we've advertised that we're fighting against only mutants.
So, as our soldiers retreated, they were attacked by more people. Among them, there are even many super criminals who have committed big crimes before. For these reasons, our soldiers have never been able to get out of Hell's Kitchen. ”
"So, you're telling me that the 3,000 soldiers under our command have no chance of escaping?"
"Uhh
In the face of General Ross's questioning, the media general chose to remain silent. However, his silence was already equivalent to answering General Ross's question.
"Wow, wow, that's exciting. First nine thousand mercenaries, then three thousand of our own soldiers. There were 12,000 people, and the mutants didn't destroy a few, but they all trapped themselves.
Twelve thousand, this... I'm afraid that the United States of America has suffered the most casualties since the Irak War, right? In my opinion, you should think about it and how to explain it to the whole media country. ”
Just when everyone was silent, a person suddenly burst into gloating applause in the room. This person is the representative with gold wire glasses sent by the government of the matchmaker.
The corners of General Ross's mouth twitched, and then he said with an ugly mocking smile: "It is precisely because the losses this time are so heavy that do you think that the people of our matchmaker country will believe that the government is not aware of this matter and that our military did it?"
So, compared to the schadenfreude taunt. I think you should think about how you can persuade the legislators to help us all and cover it up when you go back. ”
"Hey, hey, two, the situation has developed to this point, I don't think we can tolerate internal strife, can I?" Seeing that General Ross and the government representatives were showing signs of analizing again, a media general hurriedly interrupted them:
"And, I think we're more worried about right now, will the mutants in Hell's Kitchen take the opportunity to break out? After all, our 12,000 men don't seem to be able to escape much. And according to our intelligence, the mutants in Hell's Kitchen don't have as many casualties. I fear that the ambitions of the mutants will be as simple as destroying our people. ”
Propping up his gold-rimmed glasses, the government representative replied to the military general's concerns with disdain:
"So? What can mutants do when they rush out? Occupy all of New York? Really provoke a war between mutants and humans? Please, how many mutants are there? But it's only about 10 million. How many humans are there on Earth? More than eight billion. Even if mutants could defeat all the nations on Earth, do you think they would have so many men to rule over so many humans?
Know why our government can tolerate your military's repeated provocations of mutants, even. Are you allowed to wage an all-out war against mutants within the borders of the matchmaker? It is because we know that it is impossible for mutants to wage a full-scale war against us.
There are many wise men among the mutants, not all fools like your military, they know it very well! Once they do declare war on us, even if they capture a city in our matchmaker's country. It is impossible for any other human nation on Earth to allow mutants to exist.
So, your worries, let's honestly put them back in your stomach. ”
·····
In the Pentagon and the operations command room, military generals and government representatives were discussing the issue of how to deal with the aftermath. In Hell's Kitchen, whether it is 3,000 media soldiers or 9,000 pursuers, they have also ushered in their ends.
"Please spare my life, I'm just a mercenary hired by the matchmaker's military to fight."
A pursuer with nowhere to run, kneeling in front of a mutant with hair several meters long and as hard as a steel needle, pleaded.
"Contrary to you, I am fighting for my own survival. Besides, didn't you say that when you killed my parents and brother before? ”
