The Red Skull's life is becoming increasingly difficult, because Hitler now relies heavily on the Gestapo. Only they can stabilize the situation in Berlin and prevent the capitulation theory from fermenting.
If the people's hearts cannot be stabilized, chaos will happen in minutes. The Soviet troops outside the city are already pressing closer. If everyone wants to surrender, it will be completely over.
Therefore, the secret police team must not have any problems. If it loses its deterrence at this time and cannot deter those who want to surrender, it will be completely over.
At this time, Mustache is on the verge of madness, but he has not really gone mad after all. In other words, this is the last sober time in his life. He knows who is the best knife now.
In the past, he needed to use Hydra to spread the deterrence of the German army around the world, but now they are trapped in a corner. No matter how useful Hydra's intelligence is, it is difficult for a woman to make a meal without straw. In terms of importance, it is naturally not as good as operating locally.
Years of Gestapo.
Adolf once again made his choice, and the power in the hands of the Red Skull began to be weakened little by little.
Of course, the Red Skull cannot accept this situation. He has to start thinking about using the ultimate weapon. Since Germany is unreliable, he should find the Americans. At least under the nuclear threat, there will be someone in the United States willing to talk to him.
The Red Skull began to frequently urge the base to conduct simulated missile launch drills, but the information was quickly leaked and was eventually placed on the desk of the Supreme Head of State.
Of course, it is not very specific, but the more unclear it is, the more doubts it will arouse. The first step some people take to save themselves is often why the base they are most confident in becomes the first choice of the Red Skull.
The investigation against the Red Skull began. He himself was placed under house arrest in his own home. The Gestapo began to suppress his subordinates like crazy. Countless Hydras were arrested for spreading capitulation theories. Under the cover of such actions
Then, a secret force approached the base.
The Red Skull has not been running the business for nothing for so many years. His family fortune is still very strong. Some people keep passing on news to him. But when he learned that Mustache had really taken action against the base, he could no longer sit still.
He knew now was not a good time to push the button. He hadn't even contacted a reliable American yet. The nuclear bomb was most deterrent when it was not launched. He needed to wait for a price and sell it instead of destroying himself.
.
In order to ensure that the nuclear bomb can be safely kept until he is ready to start negotiations, the Red Skull has only one option left, and that is to transfer the nuclear bomb.
This activity must be carried out secretly, but there are not many people under the Red Skull anymore. After much deliberation, he only found one person who might have a community of interests with him, and that was Baron Zemo.
But Baron Zemo has long since disappeared, and the new man who succeeded him is called the Doctor. The Red Skull knows nothing about him, but since it is Hydra, there is naturally room for negotiation.
The Red Skull found the right opportunity to have a secret conversation with Schiller. What he didn't know was that during the time he was under house arrest, Nick's team had basically recovered and Captain America was ready to go.
Finally one night, a secret team was sent from the base to move the nuclear warhead. The Red Skull sent a mutant who was good at moving, so he could move the nuclear warhead to the target location without any large equipment. But what he didn't know was that the nuclear warhead had already been moved.
Replaced.
The mutant he was looking for was not even Alpha-level. He needed a long period of energy storage to move heavy objects. The time he needed to accumulate energy was just enough to move the original nuclear warhead, but the current one was more than 200 times larger.
, he couldn't move it no matter what.
Therefore, Nick's team intercepted the team with almost no effort. Captain America used his superb fighting skills to kill almost all the escorts, including many technicians.
The Red Skull kept a very close eye on this nuclear warhead. No one except his confidants had access to it. The only technicians who had come into contact with the original nuclear warhead were killed before they could report the strange changes in the nuclear warhead to the Red Skull.
, Red Skull has no way of knowing.
Nick believed that the nuclear warhead produced by Hydra might be the behemoth in front of him, but he was a little confused that Hydra was clearly called a snake, but there was a huge bat printed in the center of the nuclear warhead.
But no matter what, this was still a highly successful operation. Nick immediately reported the good news to the U.S. headquarters. Of course, the headquarters asked them to transport the nuclear warhead back to the country. The most important thing is that it must not fall into the hands of the Soviet Union.
inside.
So it is definitely impossible to transport it back now, because there are Soviet troops everywhere outside Berlin, but staying there will be long nights and dreams. Congress asked Nick to find a way even if there is no way, and to create conditions even if there are no conditions. Within ten days,
They are about to see this nuclear warhead appear on American soil.
But Nick had no energy left.
They are just a small team sent to investigate the situation and spy on Hydra's operations, not a regular army. Even a regular army has no way. In this case, it is necessary to completely avoid transporting such a large thing.
Passed the KGB's radar.
In fact, being able to hide it depends on the meticulousness of the Red Skull. At least the second place the Red Skull found to hide the nuclear bomb was relatively concealed. Otherwise, Nick would not be able to hide it for even two days, and he would be attacked by the Soviet army.
Raid.
There were only ten days left, and Nick was almost gray with worry. In the end, he had to turn to the one person he really didn't want to turn to, and that was the doctor.
"You have to think of a way." Nick said: "You know what will happen if this thing falls into the hands of the Soviets."
"There will be no consequences," Schiller said. "They have more nuclear bombs than this."
"But this is a secret nuclear bomb, do you understand?" Nick raised his voice and said: "It means that it is not registered, and no one can find the murderer if it falls on anyone's head!"
"Wouldn't there be serious consequences if we were taken over by the United States?"
Nick was speechless, but he still tried to argue: "Since you are the person in charge of New York State, it is naturally better to place this thing within your jurisdiction than to place it so far away. I believe you are there.
Management and construction are much better than here."
"Thank you for the compliment, but I'm afraid we have to cooperate on this matter."
"What do you mean?"
"I heard that Congress is planning to organize a management agency for superpowers. What role do you think you will play in it?"
Nick's face darkened, and he said: "Very well, doctor, I can't hide anything from you. I'll tell you that my teacher Alexander Pierce has some ideas about this."
"Just your teacher?"
Nick was silent, and Schiller said: "You know that their method will not work, and you must follow them into a dead end?"
"What do you mean?"
"You know how much benefit our cooperation will bring. In peacetime, there is no room for you to perform. If there is no trouble, there will be no merit..."
"I don't understand what you mean."
"Then let's not beat around the bush. When selecting people, you open up a hole and let my people in. We can create endless troubles for this organization in the future, and there will naturally be a stage for you to perform."
"I'm afraid I disagree."
"But it's definitely not because of justice." Schiller smiled and said: "The first thing that comes to your mind is not benevolence, justice and morality. You are subconsciously thinking about how to hide it from everyone."
Nixon was shocked and said, "You can read minds?"
"It's much more than that." Schiller said: "I can tell you a method that is guaranteed to be more efficient than all the answers you can come up with."
"what is that?"
"Either there are none, or they are all." Schiller's words were shocking. He said: "As long as they are all enemies, there is no enemy. That's all I have to say. Think about it for yourself."
Nick hung up the phone, why couldn't he figure it out? When these words came out, he understood what Schiller meant. As long as this organization is all Hydra in the future, no one will be able to report it.
But is this too crazy? Even the young Nick would still think about this, but he couldn't help but think that it would totally work, because what normal agents can do for wages, Hydra can also do for the purpose of lurking and gaining trust.
.
In fact they will do a better job, because no one is better at dealing with Hydra than Hydra.
It’s just that Nick still doesn’t understand what Schiller’s ultimate goal is. He must have such a purpose, but it’s currently hidden in the thick fog. Neither Nick, nor Eric, nor the Red Skull can see clearly at all.
Nick finally agreed to Schiller's request.
Nine days later, the nuclear warhead boarded a transport plane bound for the United States and arrived safely on the night of the tenth day.
Without the interference of these special figures, history returned to its proper course. A few months later, Germany announced its unconditional surrender. From then on, there was no war in Berlin.
A few months later, the northern hemisphere entered summer, and Nick had already returned, but now he faced another trouble.
When Hitler's government fell, Red Skull resisted desperately, and Captain America died together with him, falling into the deep sea. Congress urgently needs another leader to stand up, because they are about to do something big.
Nick got the news, so he had to contact the person he didn't want to contact again. He picked up the phone and said to the other party "...their emperor refused to accept the "Potsdam Declaration", and the so-called 100 million jade plan became more fanatical.
."
"The casualties of the Allied soldiers have far exceeded the acceptable range, and the resistance of the other side seems to have just begun. They cannot accept any more losses. They will definitely sign the consent form for the bombing within three days at the latest."
"what are you planning to do?"
"The bombing plan is inevitable, and I will recommend that they use the atomic bomb I got back." Nick said: "I'm sorry, but I can't let you control it."
The other party seemed to chuckle, but Nick said: "I have no intention of destroying our cooperation, but it is more conducive to balance. You know it is unfair to put such a big killer in the hands of a group of people who don't care about the country and the people."
This is especially true in the hands of terrorists. We dare not use it, but you are different, so it is best to consume it as soon as possible, which is better for everyone."
"If this is your decision, I have no problem with it."
Nick took a deep breath and hung up the phone. He knew that participating in this kind of thing meant that he had to bear the burden of countless lives, but as this damn Hydra said, benevolence, justice and morality are never the first thing to happen.
Thoughts that came to his mind.
What Nick didn't expect was that he would have to bear far more than he imagined.
One day, an intercontinental ballistic missile launch base in a certain state in the western United States received the usual launch order. The operator completed all safety confirmation procedures and pressed the launch button.
Thousands of intercontinental missiles burst out of the cabin, one of which was particularly huge and had a bat logo printed on it.
Half an hour later, the target country announced that the interception had failed and asked people to immediately evacuate into air-raid shelters for emergency refuge.
An hour later, the largest human extinction event in history was recorded in history——
