Chapter 20: The "Secret" Base
"Schmidt's ability is beyond our predictions, and he only needs to cross the Atlantic to wipe out the entire East Coast in an hour."
Howard, as an expert, put forward his own opinion, and this fact made the hearts of everyone present heavy, thinking that the enemy had such a powerful weapon, and it had to be said that it was not a thing to be thankful to have an enemy with such a powerful weapon.
There was a silence,
"How much time do we have?" One of the participants at the table asked, which is basically a common question.
"According to our new friend (Dr. Zola), no more than 24 hours."
"Where is he (John Schmidt) now?" Someone else asked.
"Hydra's last base." Phillips went on to say, "Five hundred feet below the surface of the Alps. ”
He put a picture of the Hydra base on the table.
One of the members of the Howling Commando asked again, "What do we do?" You can't just knock on the door and get in. ”
"Why not? That's what we did. ”
A categorical voice sounded, and it was up to Steve to turn the tide at the critical moment. His words caught the attention of everyone present.
"Click!"
Another picture was produced, with Steve sitting in the middle of the table while the rest of the group turned their heads to look at him. Even the title Li Yi has thought of it, and it is called "Captain America Leads America to Victory". Li Yi temporarily put this photo down, and planned to take it out after the past few days, after all, when Steve is going to attack the Hydra base, he still has to pay attention to secrecy.
It didn't take long to prepare, and after the meeting everyone was up to speed.
Howard, along with Lee and Eric, are preparing some suitable weapons for Steve, such as a multi-purpose high-tech motorcycle, and some other equipment suitable for stealth.
When Steve came here to choose the equipment, he didn't choose the infiltration gear, but the motorcycle with lots of weapons and fun gadgets. This time he wasn't going to do the trick of infiltrating the base.
Steve has a new plan, and he's ready to make a noise.
That is, they will use their own assault at the gate of Hydra to attract firepower, while the rest of the Howling Commandos will infiltrate in other directions.
To be honest, he wasn't sure if Hydra would capture him alive or kill him outright, but he had already realized it.
"Uncle Steve, will you ever come back?" Eric looked at Steve, and somehow, he suddenly had the feeling that he would never see the venerable Captain America again.
Steve stroked Eric's hair, "Of course, Eric. When I get back, I'll treat you to cheese fondue. By the way, I heard that you were involved in the creation of the magnetic attraction device for this shield? I don't think you were as good as you were when you were that old. ”
With that, Steve left the lab with his vibranium shield, taking some useful things with him.
Eric looked at Steve's back and made up his mind that he must study hard and build a powerful weapon to deal with war in the future.
"Eric? What are you doing here? Howard looked at Eric in amazement.
Seeing that Howard was wearing the same armor he had saved in the first place, Eric asked, "Mr. Stark, are you going to go too?" Going to Hydra's base? ”
"Yes, Steve is strengthened and has the will to conquer everything, but I think it would be better to have a mechanical warframe to help." Howard's voice was also full of determination, and he didn't look like a cynical playboy at all, but more like a warrior ready to go.
"A nice picture." Li Yi said as he showed the quick-printed photo in his hand, "How about it, my latest invention can be printed immediately after taking a photo." ”
In the photograph, a pair of armor and a boy stand opposite each other. The background has been blurred, and the entire photograph highlights two people standing opposite each other.
"Li, are you going?" Howard knew that Li Yi's technology was no worse than him, at least, the original armor could let him see Li Yi's level.
"Why not?" Li Yi asked rhetorically, "Of course I want to go." ”
Eric's mother has been discharged from the hospital, and Howard has temporarily hired her as his family's cook. Because the war did not end, Eric now has no school to study at all, and can only temporarily start in the experiments of Li Yi and Howard, so his current knowledge is a bit biased, and he already has a university level in electromagnetism, but other aspects are uneven.
Howard was going to wait for the war to end or when the intensity of the war had subsided, and Eric would send him to New York for an education, but Britain was still not very safe. Who knows if there will be Nazi bombs falling that day.
Leaving Eric in London, Lee and Howard boarded a plane to the Alps.
The Allied air forces near the Alps now have the upper hand, so they can safely reach the nearby Allied camp at the Hydra base.
There weren't many people flying from London to the Alps, only Phillips, Carter, the Howling Commando, and Lee Yi and Howard. The rest of the soldiers were recruited from the nearby US military base, and there were a lot of spies for Hydra, and they were also just in case.
Steve was the first to break through to the Hydra base, while the rest of the group marched in the other direction, with a large force hiding in the nearby woodland.
On a hill near the Hydra base, Howard gets a report from Phillips: "The captain has departed!" ”
Li Yi, who was wrapped in the armor, waved his hand and made a tactical move to advance, Howard took off the dark post in front, and Li Yi was leading the members of the howling commando, they didn't know the identities of Li Yi and Howard's two sets of armor, although they were also acquaintances with the two.
After climbing to the top of the mountain, on the opposite side was the luxurious floor-to-ceiling window presidential room of the Red Skull, a secret base that was so comfortable, and the office of the leader who specially watched the scenery. It's simply unreasonable that he doesn't fail.
"Report, the captain has arrived at the designated location." In the telescope, Steve is being escorted by two Hydra soldiers, seemingly talking to Red Skull.
"Let's go!" Orders are given directly.
"Take! Snatch! A large nail gun with a rope shot at the wall outside the base, and the rest of the howling commando team began to glide through the established rope path.
Red Skull saw them, turned to Steve and said, "Sorry, Captain." Looks like I can't continue to play with you. ”
He pulled out an energy gun and pointed it at Steve.
