Frowning slightly and looking at the steel factory not far away, Edward couldn't help but touch his chin, but he couldn't draw any conclusion. He could only turn his head to look at Kratos and asked: "Did they explain what happened?"
"No, they just said they are waiting for you to come back." Kratos shrugged, drove the military Hummer steadily, and said with some confusion: "It seems to be about some kind of war, saying that SHIELD needs you to lead it.
Let us support you."
"us?"
Edward frowned even more. Although he is capable of fighting now, it may not be his turn to face the real battlefield, especially his current armored company, which is no better than the army on earth in the 1980s.
equipment.
If you really participate in the Transformers, DX Expeditionary Force and the space battle, I'm afraid you can only be used as cannon fodder. If you really encounter those powerful beings and troops, it won't be enough to watch.
Seeing that the most powerful American Army was disgraced under the attack of the DX Expeditionary Force, Edward did not believe how powerful the armored troops under his command could be.
"Boss, don't look so depressed."
Looking at Edward's frown, Kratos couldn't help but curl his lips. Of course he understood what Edward was thinking, and couldn't help but smiled softly and comforted him: "Even if we can't fight, won't we still run away?"
"Then there will be a military court." Edward couldn't help but glared at Kratos, but he didn't get too angry. As a superpower of SHIELD, he did have the right to make independent decisions during wartime.
Even if he escapes on the spot, this matter can only be handled by SHIELD's special interrogation agency, Charter Glory. However, according to SHIELD's attitude, as long as there is something detrimental to superpowers at that time, it must be
In the end it was settled.
"Okay, boss, I've also seen the so-called superpower regulations."
Kratos continued to drive the military Humvee forward, turned to look at Edward, with a proud smile on his face: "Actually, even if we go and do nothing, it's totally fine."
After following Edward for so long, why doesn't Kratos know about the so-called superpower regulations? This kind of regulations written by SHIELD's charter is more like certain rules than regulations.
Although there are a few decisive restraint regulations for superpowers, most of them are really about the protection of superpowers, and the theory of how to quickly retreat and escape without guilt in certain situations.
"Of course, but do you think I would do that?"
For people like Kratos and others, Edward has a friend mentality. Moreover, during non-combat periods, the relationship between friends is indeed greater than the relationship between subordinates. Even if they are joking, it doesn't matter.
"Why not?" Kratos raised his eyebrows, as if holding something with one hand, and couldn't help laughing loudly: "Of course, head, you have to know that if we can sweep them away, we will actually be the most heroic knights.
them!"
"Oh, that's really great."
Edward breathed a sigh of relief and lay heavily on the passenger seat, squinting his eyes slightly. A certain kind of stability and relaxation gradually took over his whole body. Edward closed his eyes, but did not fall asleep.
Instead, he was thinking quickly in his mind. Although Kratos was still comforting him, he still had to have a sense of crisis. Imagining the purpose of SHIELD's arrival, Edward was thinking in his heart about what it was for.
If it was because of a simple war, I'm afraid there would be no need to find Edward. After all, even the ordinary Earth Federation Army is probably much stronger than the current Edward.
After all, even the federal army with the worst equipment has the M1A1 "Abrams" main battle tank, and now Edward is probably using it very carefully even with the T72 main battle tank.
Moreover, the T72 main battle tank is just an early model of the third generation main battle tank. Even in the war history of the 1980s, it did not leave many brilliant achievements, and it also left a certain reputation for poor overall performance.
.
Even though Edward has now modified the artillery to increase the range, stability and penetration performance of the original 125mm smoothbore cannon, to a certain extent, it has only improved the level of less than half a generation.
After all, the improvement is only the artillery, not the main body of the entire tank. Although compared with the M1A1 main battle tank, the firepower has been equal or even slightly superior, but in other aspects, it is really worrying.
"Sure enough, he is still a little weak."
Sighing slightly, Edward opened his eyes. The current armored company could still only engage in small-scale skirmishes, and could not even engage in real war. As for all-out war, he still couldn't even think about it.
"Quantity or quality." Edward looked at the scenery flashing outside the window, and these two multiple-choice questions instantly appeared in his mind. This was also something that Edward had been hesitating about. In fact, it was also some kind of inner struggle and military choice.
If we really compare them, they are probably the Soviet model and the American model.
Using absolute quantity to accumulate powerful quality, when the Soviet Union was at its strongest, even the whole of Europe was trembling. If it were not for the collapse of the country due to economic and leadership issues, then the mighty Soviet giant would still be there.
Standing tall in the heart of any European country.
The torrent of countless T-series tanks, as well as Su-series and MiG-series fighter jets, are simply a terrible nightmare for any army, especially those armored divisions and tank divisions that are truly fully equipped, which can simply destroy everything on any land.
Even the United States and many European countries have even developed nuclear bombs, cannons, nuclear mines, and the funniest nuclear mortars in order to suppress the Soviet Union's terrifying offensive posture.
The United States, on the other hand, uses the most cutting-edge technology to produce products of absolute quality, just like the United States in its previous life. It seemed to dominate the world and made the whole world suppressed and unable to breathe normally.
Especially without the obstruction of the Soviet Union, the quality of the entire army has increased to an extremely powerful point. In some respects, even if the Soviet Union is reborn, it will no longer be able to compete with it.
"Head, here we go!"
Kratos slowly stopped the car and turned to smile at Edward. Not far away, a burly man in a black suit immediately came over, opened the car door and said in a deep voice: "Sir, welcome back."
And just behind this burly man, there are six people dressed in black suits and black sunglasses standing there, holding some kind of formal leather briefcase in their hands. If you don't think too much, it must be some kind of strong man.
white collar.
However, they are not ordinary white-collar workers. If they encounter a real enemy, they will instantly tear off their official-looking disguise and turn into brutal war murderers.
Russian Federal Guard Service, elite bodyguards.
A deadly killer trained by the former KGB, he is now a guard for senior officials of the Russian Federation. He is proficient in the use of any firearms, vehicles, and precision military instruments. He is even proficient in the languages of various major countries and the etiquette of various countries.
“Thank you very much!”
Edward walked out with a smile and turned his head slightly to look at the surrounding situation, only to find that everyone who walked out had a solemn look, especially Jessica, who was walking slowly over, followed by two people in black suits and sunglasses.
man.
Frowning slightly, Edward immediately had a slight smile on his face, looking at the two men behind Jessica. However, they were not from the Russian Federal Security Service, but were dressed in glorious charters from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Especially that cold look and stern expression, they are exactly the same as those former glorious charter civil servants.
"Welcome back."
Jessica smiled slightly, shook hands with Edward gently, but did not say much else. Instead, she slightly turned sideways to let the two Charter Glory men behind her, and introduced: "This is Charter Glory's Chel and Dar.
"
With that said, Jessica pointed at Edward again towards the two men in standard charter brilliance suits, and smiled softly: "This is our commander, Edward."
"Hello, Mr. Edward."
The man in a Charter Glory suit named Chel took the first step forward, took off his sunglasses, and with a smile on his prim face, said softly: "As Ms. Jessica said, we come from Charter Glory."
"Of course, it's nice to meet you, Mr. Chel, Mr. Das." With a slight smile, Edward shook hands with the two of them, looked at Jessica, and couldn't help but show a warm smile: "Let's go in and sit down, and there are also people from
British black tea.”
"As you wish." Jessica nodded, with a certain kind of excitement on her delicate face like an angel. She glanced at Edward slightly, with a certain smile: "Please follow me."
They first walked into the buildings in the steel factory. One of the office buildings had already been transformed into some kind of fortress. A large number of sandbags were piled up in various windows, and even the entire first floor was completely covered by a group of sandbags.
In the entire steel factory, a large number of bunkers, large and small, have been excavated, and many soldiers are looking outside through the observation positions. There are powerful heavy machine guns next to them.
Even within the interval between the bunkers, there are trenches one after another distributed among them, including communication trenches, combat trenches, and shooting trenches. In this short period of time, the entire steel factory has been excavated by the soldiers.
defense system.
Even the mortar firing positions are already distributed among them. From time to time, one or two spacious pits can be seen there, and inside, there are three 51mm mortars distributed in a zigzag shape.
"Not bad." Edward finally nodded slightly. During his absence, the defense work was really in place. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
