Chapter 535: Multiple Choice Questions
Chapter 535
At a meeting of the military, Steve tried to convince numerous top brass that the Germans were ready to use gas bombs during the negotiations. But this negotiation is too important for those at the top.
The main thing is that everyone doesn't want to continue fighting. If they can negotiate peacefully, they will all go down in history. Of course, this plot is a bit mentally retarded from a military point of view. In the original book, Diana rushed in and reprimanded, attracting the attention of Ares, Sir Patrick.
But in the end, the meeting also did not pass Steve's application for action. Still relying on Patrick's sponsorship, he organized a private team to get rid of the German gas bombs. Typical Hollywood movie routines.
"Do you know where Ares is?"
Diana asked Su Yuan. Su Yuan said in his heart, of course I know. He should be in that building a few hundred meters away by now. However, Su Yuan did not plan to start a war with Ares in the city of London. It's not time yet.
You must know that the Ares of this world is a real god of war. Even if the injury is not healed, it is definitely half recovered. In the original work, a lot of divine power is really displayed. If Su Yuan wants to kill that guy, he still needs Diana's help.
But Diana at this time is actually not qualified enough.
In the original book, Ares was too confident. Help Diana awaken the divine power in her body. Su Yuan didn't dare to bet on the occurrence of such a thing. So, he needs to make Diana a qualified assistant in advance.
And the whole story of Wonder Woman is deceptively simple. But the various backgrounds, as well as the hidden story extensions, are actually very complex. For example, in mythology, more than one main god wanted to overthrow Zeus. This guy seems to be yin from time to time. But never really die. And turning around, it must be Zeus who has the last laugh.
Regarding the legend that Ares cut down Zeus, Su Yuan said that he didn't believe a word. Even if it's a family tradition. But Zeus is an expert at playing this. Judging from the performance in the back, Ares is completely naΓ―ve. To say that he can fight Zeus, Su Yuan said that it is purely funny.
In the DC universe, Su Yuan is not as familiar as Marvel. And he doesn't know much about this time period. All kinds of big events have basically not started yet. So it's the best choice to mix with Diana for the time being.
As the two were about to join Steve, an old man passed by. The muscles in Su Yuan's whole body tensed. In an instant, he felt a huge divine oppression.
Ares, a god-level existence, is completely different from the divine creatures that Su Yuan killed before. First of all, he has perfect control over his divinity. Second, he has a priesthood in this world. Before the rise of the new gods, Ares was a real god of war. So in this world, it is natural for divinity to suppress Su Yuan.
However, Su Yuan has mastered the four rules, and there are various hole cards in hand. It's not necessarily that I'm really afraid of him. What he is really afraid of is what is behind this ethical entanglement. and other old gods who are said to be dead, but must be hiding in the shadows of Zeus and the like.
Passed by, and in the end nothing happened. Su Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Together with Diana, join Steve.
"That's about it. The military did not agree with the operation. β
"Then we'll do it ourselves. We go to the battlefield, to the places where the war is most intense. Ares must be there, kill him, and end this war. β
Steve: "...... I said, the higher-ups don't agree with this operation. β
"Really? To be exact, it's just that the top management doesn't agree with your actions. We are not British and are not under the command of your government. So, Diana, if you want. Let's go ourselves. Go and complete your mission. β
"Hey, peace talks are already in the works. At this time, if someone broke into the German position, it would disrupt the negotiations. "Steve is still arguing with his arguments. However, Su Yuan didn't plan to get used to him.
"Really? What I don't understand is, do you want peace talks, or do the Germans want it? As far as I know, the Allies already had the upper hand on the battlefield. You can win the war. You know from your knees that the Germans will not really surrender, they will only use this negotiation to get a little breathing room. β
"You think I don't know, but I'm a soldier, and my vocation is to obey orders."
"Really? But in my hometown, the duty of a soldier is to protect the country and its people. Su Yuan said lightly what he had always wanted to say in his heart. Steve, on the other side, froze suddenly.
What exactly is a soldier's vocation? This statement is not the same. For those recruits, the teaching of veterans must be to obey orders. In fact, for the leadership, the most perfect soldier is a war machine that does not have a mind of its own and unconditionally carries out all orders.
Various Hollywood movies and dramas in Europe and the United States have explored this topic. The famous series of movies, Mission Impossible. The cause of this is the so-called stumbling block plan. Through drugs and brainwashing, soldiers are transformed into killing machines with no self-awareness. However, let them go on all sorts of black missions.
This leads to a number of questions worth exploring.
First of all, a soldier's vocation is obedience, right? Of course, if the soldiers are not obedient, the battlefield will become a mess. By every measure, the results were catastrophic.
But here's the problem. Is the person who issued the order trustworthy? They demanded that the soldiers carry out all orders unconditionally. But will these orders be mixed with personal feelings, and will there be actions similar to those of black missions?
The answer to this question is uncertain. Or rather, no one dares to say for sure. Because the superior controls everything of the lower, and the subordinate has no channel to supervise the superior. At this point, all systems are the same. From the moment rights are born, they are meant to be unfettered.
Most of the time, soldiers are unable to discern the nature of these tasks. But they will see the consequences of the task.
When they know that their mission has harmed innocent civilians and, worse, citizens who need their own protection. And the reason is to cover up the mistakes of some high-level officials, or some selfish desires? What do you think? They swore to defend the country, they swore to obey orders. But the two are not unified.
Now Steve is facing this problem. Choose between obeying orders and protecting your people.
After a long time, Steve took a deep breath and said.
"Well, we need a complete plan, and we need some support at the same time."
