65. End early
When General Thaddeus-Ross arrived on the border between Kenya and Wakanda on a special S.H.I.E.L.D. airliner with Ambrera's security team, the letter of authorization for command was also handed over to General Mattis.
With the frustration and reluctance of a loser, Matisse met with his old rival, and he couldn't figure out why Thaddeus had chosen to sit on the sidelines and why he was going to be in this muddy water.
Wakanda proved its military strength with two extremely beautiful wars, this third world country shocked the world at the same time, the seemingly backward way of warfare, extravagant to the price of vibranium weapons, these are all incredible, before the war escalated to the use of nuclear weapons, the bald eagle that has always been rampant had to pinch his nose and admit that this was a Waterloo battle encountered by the United States.
The world's great powers are waiting and watching, and if Wakanda resists the US attack, its international status will rise to a new level, and it will also be recognized by various countries, which may be an opportunity to rise.
And the defeated Bald Eagle will face the dual problems of military spending and domestic public opinion, which I believe will be a headache for the newly appointed president.
"Looks like you're confident."
Mattis wanted to admonish him, but seeing General Ross's confident and proud expression, he couldn't help but swallow his words back.
"Times have changed, old man." General Ross said with a sense of superiority. "Just like the saying that circulated in the last century, 'only tanks can defeat tanks', this is the era of the transcendental, cutting-edge technology can influence the direction of war, just like the contest between the battleship faction and the aircraft carrier faction, the form of war you know has been left behind the trend."
The old man who took over as Supreme Commander raised the corners of his mouth, he looked at the border of Wakanda, his eyes were full of confidence, with the mutant legion, plus the umbrella team, it was not an impossible task to break through this strong defensive line.
What's more, for this war, Sean has been fully prepared, and all problems will be solved.
"I'll see, Rose."
General Matisse snorted coldly, he had been fighting for half his life, but he would not be shaken by a few words.
"Don't go back to Washington, D.C. like me."
Leaving that last sentence behind, Matisse stumbled aboard the transport plane, still not believing that Thaddeus could easily break through a line he had not taken a month to overcome.
Even though he knew that General Ross had spent a lot of money to build a small army of super soldiers, in the battlefield of tens of thousands, this force was like a wave in the sea, it was really insignificant.
The vibranium weapons of Wakanda, as well as the strong defensive line of the capital, this is the most headache for the NATO army.
Even if it is bombed by fighters, it can't shake half a minute, and the huge protective shield of the energy structure has extraordinary defensive power, which is enough to withstand the continuous attack of fierce firepower.
Before General Ross arrived, Mattis had 4,000 NATO soldiers under the strong cover of aircraft and artillery fire, followed by hundreds of armored vehicles to attack the smoky capital of Wakanda.
"People who can't adapt to the changes of the times can only be eliminated."
General Ross clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his body, and his tone was steadfast.
…………
When Sean, who was in Manhattan, received the good news from General Ross, it was already three days later.
General Ross arrived at the border battlefield, and specially selected 300 mutants - they had already arrived quietly under Ambrera's plan, and reorganized into a legion with their own abilities, plus 1,700 super soldiers, equipped with Ambrera's liquid armor and energy weapons.
This formidable army, once it is pushed by a bang, is as unstoppable as a galloping bull.
Under the heavy cover of new warplanes and armored vehicles, they gradually approached the capital of Wakanda, and those vibranium weapons, the war rhinoceros raised by the border tribes, in the face of the torrent of heavily armed steel, did not show the same stubborn resistance as before.
In this small-scale raid, Ambrera showed for the first time the steel armor made by the chief weapons designer, Ivan Vanke, and compared to the more aesthetic humanoid armor of Iron Man, the Russian man's work has a strong native style.
Bulky, sturdy, rugged and with an emphasis on low cost, all produced on the assembly lines of the weapons manufacturing plant acquired from Hammer Industries, was unanimously appreciated by the Department of Defense.
What the military bigwigs need is not expensive toys that only Tony Stark can afford, but steel machines that can be put into the battlefield on a large scale.
Obviously, Ivan Vanke fully meets this condition, even if this kind of stupid and thick iron lump makes Tony, who has seen the finished product, complain mercilessly, and is a pile of scrap metal that tarnishes the beauty of technology and art.
But this pile of scrap metal perfectly played the due role of the war machine, whether it was a war rhinoceros wearing vibranium armor all over its body, or a suspended battleship and vibranium artillery, it could be stubbornly resisted.
The warriors of the border tribes retreated all the way back to the capital of Wakanda, where the energy shield was opened, and the old king Techaka, wearing a vibranium suit, looked down on the steel army advancing with cold eyes, and his expression was solemn.
In order to prevent foreign invasion, the Wakandans have gone to great lengths to disguise themselves with optical camouflage-like barriers, build giant defensive rings, and use various means to protect the priceless vibranium veins.
"We don't want war, General." T'Chaka is a politician and tries to impress the other side with words, "It's all a misunderstanding, Ulysses Crowe, that despicable thief, who was once punished by Wakanda, made up a lie...... We just want peace. ”
General Rus, who rushed from the front headquarters, looked at the capital of Wakanda shrouded in energy shields, and was unable to conquer the city, which meant that he could not capture Wakanda in the true sense of the word, and he could not obtain the ultimate goal - vibranium veins.
And once the opportunity is seized, the warriors of the border tribes will regain the lost land under the leadership of the king, and Wakanda, which has the advantage of fighting at home, has a way to deal with the NATO army.
So General Rus must smash the strong defense line of Wakanda with rapid momentum and win the war once and for all!
Otherwise, the previous efforts and advantages achieved will slowly be exhausted in the counterattack of the Wakandans.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, we are here for war."
General Ross spat and looked mocking, then gave the order to attack.
Super-soldiers mingle with legions of mutants and charge towards the Wakanda capital, and the Wakandans inside the shield hold their breath, confident that the line will not be broken.
Five hundred meters!
Three hundred meters!
100 meters......
The energy shield that enveloped the city suddenly flashed, like a light bulb that went out, and it dimmed in an instant.
The Iron Army is in full swing!
Like the Eye of Horus, overlooking the global Skynet, intruding into Wakanda's security system, Princess Su Rui, who manages all this, is full of disbelief, she never thinks that in this world, there will be hackers who quietly disintegrate their firewalls!
Wakanda's energy shield, like the nuclear bomb code, is divided into three parts, one part is in the hands of the king, one part is in the hands of the administrator, and the last part is given to the high priest, even if all the key parameters are obtained, it still needs to be scanned and opened by the royal bloodline.
This level of strict protection completely collapsed in an instant, which made the people of Wakanda fall sharply, and even give birth to a desperate mentality.
General Ross triumphantly lit a cigar, and now there was no need to wait for the sixty-day deadline, and from this moment on, the war ended prematurely.
