Chapter 12: The Future Winter Soldier

The bearded lieutenant didn't waste much time, and after sweeping away the remaining ammunition from the battlefield, he withdrew with his team.

The encounter between this team and the German army was more occupied by the element of chance, and not long after they left, the recovering German army also arrived here, but unfortunately it was already empty.

Although he was a new member, Zhang Yang's actions just now undoubtedly gave him a lot of good impressions, and these surviving allies expressed a friendly attitude towards Zhang Yang's joining, and the young man with brown hair took the initiative to chat with Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment.

"What did you just say? Your name is James. Barnes? ”

He turned his head to look at the young man, who had been hidden by the smoke and dust before, and after wiping off these disguises, a very familiar face appeared in front of him.

"Well, I guess I should be right, it's James. Barnes. The brown-haired young man repeated in confusion, not knowing why Zhang Yang was a little strange.

"It's okay, your name reminds me of someone." Zhang Yang smiled, laughing very happily.

True, there is nothing special about the name, and there are simply not too many people who call Barnes in the United States. But a sergeant named James Barnes happened to serve in the 107th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army, and with this somewhat familiar face, Zhang Yang was almost certain that the brown-haired and blue-eyed young man in front of him was the famous Winter Soldier in the future.

The Winter Soldier's name, also known as Bucky, is Captain America's nickname for James Barnes.

Let Barnes guess at this moment. probably can't guess that Zhang Yang has known himself decades later. And Zhang Yang looked at Barnes's face, and then thought of the facial paralysis in Captain America 2, Zhang Yang wanted to laugh a few times at the moment.

I thought the system would make it more difficult for me. But I didn't expect the system to give me a big gift.

Who is Barnes? The future Winter Soldier, Captain America's best friend, was transformed into a Winter Soldier by the former Soviet Union, and fought against Team America in Captain America 2, and the two sides were of equal strength, while Bucky joined the ranks of superheroes in the later storyline. Took over the flag of Team America and became the second generation of Captain America (Team America was dead at the time, later resurrected).

Zhang Yang is now experiencing the world of Captain America 1, Steve Rogers at the moment. He was probably training as a recruit at a military base in the United States, and there were many ways to get close to Steve, but he wanted to make Steve trust someone completely. Then Barnes is definitely an important plot character.

"Okay. Thank you so much for your help, you can call me Bucky, that's what my friends call me. ”

Barnes, who couldn't figure out the key to it, no longer bothered with Zhang Yang's slightly strange smile, but thanked Zhang Yang in a friendly way.

"It's a gesture."

Knowing that the other party is the future Winter Warrior Bucky, Zhang Yang is no longer confused, and there are already preliminary steps on how to proceed with the follow-up plan.

Now Bucky and himself are in France, but the American team is still receiving recruit training in New York, USA. It will take a while for the two to get in touch, and Zhang Yang needs to be in this time. Do your best to improve your friendship with Barnes and bring the two closer together in order to prepare for the next mission.

As for how to achieve such an effect, Zhang Yang is also somewhat prepared. As the saying goes, there are three irons in life: they have carried guns together, prostitutes together, and squatted through the window together, and the most iron of the three irons is comrades-in-arms, on the battlefield, it is easy to establish an unbreakable friendship, and this is also a good opportunity for Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang does not intend to waste it.

In addition to getting rid of Barnes, Zhang Yang also has to take advantage of this time to brush up his prestige and gain a firm foothold in the 107th Infantry Regiment, otherwise Steve will have some trouble when he joins the Super Soldier and becomes Captain America.

The rest of the time, Zhang Yang chatted with Bucky intentionally or unintentionally, and through a short conversation, Zhang Yang roughly understood Bucky's current character, stable and mature, patriotic, and has a very good marksmanship (his father was a soldier, but he has passed away), although he has only joined the army for less than a month, he has already experienced actual combat.

"You've been in the army for less than a month? According to my observations, there are very few recruits who are as good as you, at least the recruits I have met, many of whom are afraid to fire a gun when they go into battle. Zhang Yang looked at Bucky, and the other party didn't look like a rookie at the moment, but more like a veteran.

"It's supposed to be two weeks and five days, today is the sixth day, my father used to be a soldier, and I learned my marksmanship from him, so I ......" Bucky (for convenience, Barnes is collectively referred to as Bucky.) After explaining, Zhang Yang nodded, some things can be stopped at the moment, and there is no need to say it.

Bucky's character is easy to eat well in the army, coupled with Bucky's experience since childhood, he is much more mature than Steve in terms of dealing with people, and for Steve he is more like an elder, and the experience of both being orphans has also laid an unbreakable foundation for the strong friendship between the two of the American team.

Zhang Yang nodded, Ba'en was very good, although one of the two was a corporal and the other was a sergeant, they still chatted very well.

That's right, what makes Zhang Yang want to vomit is that he, a veteran who has been in the army for two years, is actually just a corporal, and Barnes was already a sergeant when he was drafted into the army, Zhang Yang doesn't know if it's because of his race, or if this body was a completely mediocre character before, and the director was just a corporal, but this already made Zhang Yang feel a toothache.

"Before leaving France, at least you have to find a way to get promoted to the next rank, a corporal is just too painful."

The general Zhang Yang didn't think about it, and the world left by the system to himself did not allow him to do this, and the school level would be a little difficult for a while, (you don't see that the American team is only a captain after working hard for a long time, of course, this is also the US government's plan to hide the identity of the American team, and secretly suppressed the promotion of the military rank.) But it's relatively easy to get a second lieutenant, as long as you have enough merit, there is hope.

Although there are reasons for racial discrimination, some people in the military may reject their applications, but now is World War II, and the battlefield is undoubtedly the fastest place to be promoted, and promotion in the line of fire is not just a joke. (To be continued......)
