Chapter 23: Rumler
Fifteen minutes later, the team resumed its journey towards Rumler.
"Major Henry, why did you join the army when you are so rich?" Leybin's curiosity rose again.
"You don't know?" Henry was puzzled, I am a genius and rich person, and I should not be unknown in the United States.
Then I thought that there was no Internet in this era, and there was a military background, so it was reasonable for ordinary soldiers not to know about it.
"Do you know the life of General Bradley?" Henry continued.
"I know a little bit, and I know that it is your father," replied Captain Miller, and the other soldiers were not surprised, after all, they all had the same name, and they had already guessed.
"My grandfather died of illness before my father graduated from high school, and when he graduated from high school, my father went to work on the railroad, and then he was admitted to West Point, mainly for free."
"Then I went up slowly, and then I had my sister and me, and although I was admitted to MIT at the age of 14 and graduated three years early, my family had already started borrowing money to get by."
"My mother didn't worry that I would leave home to work in New York when I was a minor, so she asked me to go to West Point for a few years without spending money."
"Do you know the Gatling gun?" Henry smiled, looked at the people around him, and asked again.
"Of course I know, the battlefield is a big killer, and armored vehicles can shoot in more than ten seconds" Leybin said excitedly, he was a machine gunner, how could he not know, and the others also nodded.
"I designed and improved it, and then sold it to Stark Industries, got some shares and cash, and then I had the money to produce this," Henry continued, shaking the rifle in his hand.
"Cool~, it turns out that this is how the money came from, but unfortunately I can't learn it" Melly sighed, the Jewish one who doesn't want to make money.
"So I've already entered West Point, I can't quit if I want to, not to mention that my father also worked as an instructor at West Point, so it's impossible for me to drop out, so I can only go all the way to the black," Henry said helplessly.
"But when this war is over, I can leave the army"
"I don't know what I can do without the army" Capazzo was reminded of his thoughts, and said a little confused, after a brutal war, it is difficult to return to the life of ordinary people.
"There are a lot of them, such as private bodyguards, or invite a group of veterans to set up a bodyguard company, if you want to continue to pursue excitement, you can also set up a mercenary company, escort, private prison, etc." Henry opened his mouth to come, there are so many gangsters in the United States, and there are many businesses.
"If you don't have the capital, you can also open a gun shop, come to me to get the goods first and pay later"
"So, I can't live without this thing for the rest of my life," Captain Miller asked, holding up his gun.
"In the United States, there are so many gangsters, who can leave this thing," Dr. Wade thought very openly.
"Yes," Captain Miller smiled casually.
"Hide, there's a tank coming!" Henry heard the sound of the tank one step ahead of them, and waited until he was closer before leading the men into the nearby field.
"Don't use the bazooka yet, wait and see, these are still the German tanks that are going to be used against the Ramler," said Henry, holding Capazzo's hand ready to pull out the bazooka.
"Boom"
The sound of the diesel engine is getting closer and closer, and soon it is 100 meters away.
The sound of two rockets shuttling through the air sounded in a row, hitting the tank and the armored car behind, and with a bang, it became scrap metal.
"We're over, it's supposed to be the Allies," Henry beckoned to go out together.
"We are the U.S. military, who are you?" Henry shouted as he stepped closer.
"We too, we are from the 101st Airborne Division" came out of it a couple of American GIs.
"101 Airborne Division? Do you know a James Ryan soldier? ”
"I'm me, Major, what are you looking for me?" Ryan stepped forward and asked Henry.
"Captain Miller, show him the mission, tell him clearly," Henry asked Captain Miller to explain.
"How far is it from Rumler," Henry asked again, turning to another soldier.
"Not far, a kilometer at most"
"Okay, let's talk as we go, by the way help fight the machine guns, I heard that this is the front line, so we specially captured it from the Germans"
Henry asked them to hurry to help, and along the way, the few people holding the machine gun ammunition were exhausted.
"Thanks, we need this thing, it's going to help us a lot," one of the soldiers smiled and happily took the machine gun from Merry, and the others stepped forward to take the bullet box.
"Why are you looking for Ryan?" asked one of the soldiers.
"Because the other day, Ryan's mother received three death notices in one day, and now Ryan is still alive, so we are going to take him back," Henry explained casually.
"Okay"
Walking into Ramler, what you see is a bombed ruin, and there are not a single civilian.
"He won't go now," Captain Miller said as he walked over and told Henry.
"Okay, let's set it up, let's just add a few of them, and we don't have to defend the tanks and armored vehicles, so let's call them over," Henry said to Captain Miller.
