The US military dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan.
In the same month, the Soviet Union, having concluded its European battlefield, declared war on Japan.
In mid-August, Japan finally announced its unconditional surrender, ending World War II.
Aboard a U.S. warship in the Pacific.
After a cheer of victory, Gary was officially awarded the rank of brigadier general.
"Gary."
"Gary!"
The veterans of the 107th Regiment shouted in unison.
"Colonel Gary, in view of your great contributions in the European battlefield and the Pacific battlefield, the headquarters has specially awarded you the rank of brigadier general. I hope you can continue to serve the country!" Smith, the chief of staff of the US military, smiled and personally put on the brigadier general badge.
Gary's chest.
Gary looked solemn, "Thank you to the headquarters for the high expectations! I will continue to work hard!"
After the conferring ceremony, Smith put his hands on the railing, looked at the endless sea in the distance, and said: "Gary, now that the war is over, what are your plans?"
"Chief of Staff, I hope to continue working under you!" Gary said seriously.
"Are you sure? I probably won't stay in the military." Smith said with a smile.
Gary said without any hesitation: "It is an honor for me to follow the Chief of Staff."
"Haha, flattering me is not a good idea." Smith shook his head and continued: "Tell me what you really think."
"Chief of Staff, actually I want to stay in the strategic science department. Although Hydra has been annihilated, there are still many remaining forces around the world. They are still planning for their comeback, and in the process of annihilating Hydra,
Countries have actually stolen a lot of technology, and even recruited a group of scientific research talents to secretly prepare super soldier projects..." Gary said slowly.
Smith listened carefully. After Gary finished speaking, he nodded, "You are right. The war is over, but the competition with other countries has just begun. We in the United States are lagging behind other countries in this regard. We really need a group of fresh people."
Blood injection."
On the deck of the warship, Gary talked a lot with Smith. Although Smith did not reply clearly, judging from his intention, it was obvious that he agreed with Gary to go to the strategic science department.
And sure enough, a month later, in mid-September, the transfer order for Gary came down.
Strategic Sciences Headquarters.
"Gary, I didn't expect that you would be transferred here. With your qualifications, you can definitely stay in the military and develop!" Colonel Phillips was a little confused. You have to know the status of the strategic science department since the annihilation of the Hydra organization.
It's getting worse day by day. Except for some old agents, no one else has been transferred to other departments through connections. But who knew that Gary, who has a bright future, would take the initiative to come here.
Gary smiled and said, "I'm a nostalgic person and can't bear to leave Chief Phillips."
"Oh, Gary, please stop joking. I should call you "Sir" now. Hey, I never thought that I would one day call my subordinates "Sir". Phillips' expression was also quite complicated, and he looked towards
Gary continued: "You really shouldn't be transferred here. The strategic science department now only has one name left."
The two of them walked inside while talking.
Gary looked at the sparse staff in the corridor and wondered: "Isn't Stark still in the department? Didn't he provide funds?"
"If it weren't for Stark, I think I would have retired by now." Colonel Phillips said helplessly, "Compared to dreams, the headquarters would rather see actual benefits."
Gary really didn't expect that the strategic science department would be so miserable. It seems that the United States also has a hobby of flying birds and bows. "Colonel Phillips, don't be so pessimistic. At least my transfer brought a lot of support money. We will soon
Then we can recruit employees again.”
"I hope someone will come," Colonel Phillips shrugged.
The two came to the underground research room.
Carter and Stark were studying the infinite energy source. Because Gary arrived early, they did not go out to greet him.
"Ahem, let me introduce to you, this is the new director of the Strategic Science Department, John Gary!" Colonel Phillips coughed lightly.
Carter was stunned and couldn't help but said: "Gary, it turns out that the newly transferred minister is you?!"
Stark was also startled. After reacting, he couldn't help but joked: "It seems that we don't have to look at Colonel Phillips' face in the future."
Upon hearing this, Phillips' face suddenly darkened.
"Gary, you shouldn't be here." Carter stepped forward and said.
"I'm already here." Gary smiled and changed the subject, "How is it? Have you researched anything?"
When it came to work, Stark became interested, but he shook his head and said: "There is no progress yet. The energy of this infinite energy source is very huge. If you want to use it, you need very precise instruments. If Erskine
If the doctor is still here, he will definitely be able to build it."
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time, I think there will always be something to gain." Feeling the strong spatial fluctuations around him, there was a faint excitement in Gary's eyes.

Yangzhou City.
Mingyue Community.
After Gary was successfully transferred to the strategic science department, he focused his main attention on Luo Hua. After all, he was likely to have to deal with various insidious methods from Luo Feng's enemy Li Yao.
"It has been a year since Xiaofeng left." In the living room, Gong Xinlan sighed repeatedly. Although there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart, as time went by, this glimmer of hope became increasingly slim.
Luo Hua comforted him: "Mom, my brother Luo Feng will definitely be back, and he will be back soon."
Gong Xinlan forced a smile on her face. She knew that Luo Hua was comforting her. It had been a year. If he could come back, he would have come back long ago.
In the afternoon, an announcement was posted on the official website of Extreme Martial Arts.
"Because he stayed in the ruins of the ancient civilization for more than a year, his chance of survival is zero. The martial arts hall has determined that he has died. A memorial service will be held tomorrow afternoon."
The news got out.
The remaining hope suddenly collapsed. Gong Xinlan and Luo Hongguo couldn't bear the blow and fainted.
Luo Hua hurriedly sent the two elders to the hospital. They didn't wake up until night, but they were both in bad moods.
Yaofeng Peak Villa in Jiangnan Shanshui Community.
"Haha, I'm so happy, so happy. Extreme Martial Arts finally confirmed Luo Feng's death, hahaha!" Li Yao laughed happily.
Wenina was also very happy, squinting her eyes and humming: "Although we didn't kill Luo Feng with our own hands, he still has relatives, and I want to make their lives worse than death!"
"Yes, let them live a life worse than death." Li Yao's eyes revealed a sinister look, "I've been waiting for such an opportunity, and now it's finally here!"
Li Yao clenched his fists, looked at Winina and said: "This time I arrange the forces of the HR alliance, there should be no one to stop me."
"Everyone is dead, who cares!" Venina said disdainfully.
"Then let's start, destroy them psychologically first!" Li Yao said viciously.
Venina nodded, but just as she was about to make a call, her phone rang.
"What? The Extreme Martial Arts Hall intervened to prevent us from taking revenge?!"
After hanging up the phone, Venina's face turned completely gloomy.
