After the troops were mobilized, there was a lot of pushing and shoving from the Pentagon, and finally Brigadier General Talbot, an old acquaintance of SHIELD, was sent to command the operations in New York.
Brigadier General Tarbert is already a relatively upright and bloody general among the generals. Facing aliens in New York is a crucial and tough battle. What they are guarding behind them is the heart of the country. If something goes wrong,
If something goes wrong, it will be a stain that will last a lifetime.
In addition, even if we put aside this relationship, just being "responsible for commanding the battle against aliens" is already stressful enough. The appointment of Brigadier General Tarbot to command the battle was also based on his experience with the Frost Giant tribe.
experience of.
The army and SHIELD are on track, but the superhero side is more troublesome to command.
Iron Man is used to making his own decisions, so it would be unreasonable to expect him to obey orders and act in accordance with orders. Thor has the title of Prince of Asgard on his head, let alone commander, he is just like those in the Pentagon with their nostrils turned upward.
The old man didn't dare disrespect him.
Dr. Banner is willing to cooperate in the battle, but the big green guy in his body refuses. Everyone knows that he has disowned his relatives after his transformation, and he might kill one of his own people before the fight starts. Then Zita
Rui Ren flew down and looked confused. What's going on? We didn't even exert our strength, why did they all fall down?
Originally, it was difficult enough to bring these people together to form a team, but fortunately, everyone was aware of the seriousness of the matter when the enemy was facing the enemy. With a wave of his hand, Stark left the mothership and brought all the Avengers there.
On the balcony on the top floor of his building, he used this as a base to prepare for the battle.
In such a large number of battles, these individually powerful heroes can only play a limited role, but they can serve as general-level figures. It is like the battle between two armies in ancient times. Although the victory or defeat must be determined by the soldiers, the role of powerful generals is the same.
Can not be ignored.
The Chitauri have their own clear military system and command system, and do not directly accept the orders of the five Obsidian generals, so now Thanos's subordinates themselves seem less important in the war. The biggest problem is the Cosmic Cube
Still in their hands, if humans can recapture the Rubik's Cube, they can close the portal and cut off the opponent's source of troops.
It's a pity that the five Obsidian generals are not like Loki in the movie, who insists on being arrogant and seeking death. He holds the Rubik's Cube on the roof of the Stark Tower, as if shouting to the world, "I'm here to catch me."
Thanos's men are very thieves. They hid when the Chitauri army came. They even used some method to block the energy signal of the Rubik's Cube, making it impossible to find it.
Richard did not follow Stark to Avengers Tower, but stayed on the A.D. Shields mothership to watch the battle with Fury. He looked at the huge vortex that appeared on the surface of the earth through the surveillance screen, and frowned slightly.
He raised his eyebrows.
He has a bolder idea, but he's not sure it's a good one.
For soldiers like the Chitauri, who rely on human waves tactics to win, the beheading plan most commonly used in old American movies is really not of much use. The Chitauri don't have a core figure like a leader, you kill them
A commander will immediately be replaced by an adjutant, and if the headquarters is destroyed, a new command system will immediately replace it. The best way to kill them is to fight on the ground with real swords and guns, until the last one of them is reduced to rubbish.
Until the slag.
But this was for the Chitauri. But Richard thought, if he flew directly in from the wormhole and killed Thanos directly, then the Chitauri would have no reason to lose this employer.
Then fight it on the earth, right?
It's just that the risk is not small. First of all, he doesn't know what is going on at the other end of the wormhole and how far it is from the earth, so he has no way of knowing how long it will take to go back and forth. His teleportation looks like teleportation, but in fact it is
After his body is quantized, he escapes into the subspace and moves at high speed, which is equivalent to folding the distance between two points, but it does not mean that he can jump from one end of the universe to the other in an instant. It would be very painful if the wormhole suddenly closes after he enters.
.
There is no guarantee that the Earth side will need his help. Now that three of Obsidian's five generals are here, who knows if Thanos will throw down other trump cards.
There is another point. Although he can't explain why, Richard has a very bad premonition about this upcoming battle, as if something other than the Chitauri and the Five Obsidian Generals are waiting in the dark.
move.
Although it might just be unreliable intuition, out of caution, he decided to wait and see before taking action until there was no other choice.
The best tactic is actually to attack head-on. Killing one, or killing a pair is also an opportunity to show the strength of the earth to Thanos and even the universe, letting the little guys in the universe know that the earth is not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated casually.
Just two hours after the evacuation order came down from the city government, the Chitauri arrived.
Evacuating a metropolis like New York in just two hours is undoubtedly a fantasy and an impossible task. A large number of citizens failed to evacuate the city and had to hide in underground shopping malls, subways and other places just like in the movies.
Take refuge. Fortunately, the Chitauri's goal is to occupy rather than kill people. They will most likely start a head-on war with the military in downtown New York and will not deliberately seek out civilians to kill.
When the dense alien army broke through the atmosphere like locusts and rushed straight towards New York City, everyone in the city almost stopped breathing.
Thanks to the various film and television images created by people's own imagination so far, "aliens" have been planted with a deep-rooted "invincible" impression in the hearts of modern people. Most of the alien armies that everyone has imagined are
It can sweep through planes and tanks and destroy human armies as if it were a joke.
Before the fight started, all the soldiers thought about it and their fighting spirit was gone.
Not only New York and this country, but the whole world is paying close attention to this war at this moment. Although the battlefield is in New York, this is a tough battle that belongs to all mankind.
Finally, when the first batch of Chitauri Vanguards riding flying vehicles came into range over New York, Brigadier General Tarbot hissed and ordered: "Listen to my command...fire freely!"
Turrets and rockets shot up all over the streets, and the anti-aircraft weapons deployed all around fired all their rounds. Gunfire flashed, and the rain of bullets formed a hot metal storm and swept towards the aliens in the sky.
The moment of contact, the Chitauri who were at the forefront were blown to pieces.
