Marvel’s Superman

Chapter 34 Reward from the Allies, the youngest general

A few days later, at noon.

Several jeeps slowly drove into Piazza Venezia, with Colonel Phillips and Peggy Carter sitting on them.

Covered with white marble, this circular square in the center of Rome is surrounded by Italian defenders.

They surrounded the Venetian Palace, which stood towering on one side of the square, and even set up machine guns.

It's no wonder that these Italians are mobilizing their troops and creating an amazing battle with great fanfare.

A few days ago, the huge commotion at the Venice Palace almost made the King of Italy think that the Allied tanks entered the city.

Later, it was learned that Hitler sent someone to try to rescue Mussolini, and the royal family hurriedly mobilized the army to surround the Venetian Palace in the name of protection.

"Looks like Captain Cavill has frightened the Italians enough."

Colonel Phillips said in a victorious manner.

He opened the car door, stepped down, and looked at the Palazzo Venezia.

Everyone else's eyes are also looking at the balcony on the second floor.

The former Mussolini lived there and delivered his famous "balcony speech".

And uttered those inflammatory words to the Italian people, promising many seemingly good futures.

Today, the dictator has been brought down and the country has chosen to surrender.

All the good things come to nothing.

The Piazza Venezia was gradually crowded with Italians.

After a while, a tall figure came out, standing on the open-air balcony, holding an Italian dictator who was no longer as majestic as before.

The mighty Mussolini who once pointed out the country, like an eggplant beaten by frost, slumped his shoulders and was lifted up humiliatingly.

He looked at Luke with hatred and fear, it was this young Allied captain who ended his dictatorship!

The other party suddenly rushed into the Venetian Palace like a magic weapon, knocked down all the guards, and defeated the team that Hitler came to rescue.

Let yourself, the ruler of Italy, become a prisoner of a little captain!

In the silent square, a cheer soon followed, followed by a mountain of tsunami-like applause.

Wave after wave of sound waves, centered on Piazza Venezia, spread in all directions, from one block to another!

"Liberate Italy! Long live freedom!"

"Down with the dictator! Mussolini step down!"

"Hang him! Hang the devil!"

In the warm and solemn cheers, such slogans continued to emerge, and more people began to gather in Piazza Venezia.

One by one looked excited, raised their arms high and shouted!

Mussolini's dictatorship led to the prevalence of fascism.

Food is regulated, freedom of speech is banned, people take to the streets to demonstrate every day, and the wave of strikes has never stopped.

So, in the eyes of the people who have lived a miserable life, Luke is not a hateful aggressor, but a great hero who liberated this country from the dictator!

Well, that fits the Italian character who loves romance!

"The original decision was indeed correct."

Seeing the reputation value refreshed like a waterfall on the character panel, Luke expressed his satisfaction.

Active attack, and passive completion of tasks, he prefers the former!

When the cheering crowd gradually dispersed, Colonel Phillips took Carter into the Venice Palace.

The Roaring Commando put away the heavy machine guns in the hall and waited for the condolences from the friendly forces.

"Long time no see, Luke!"

Colonel Phillips' calm expression could no longer be maintained, and he held Luke's palm excitedly.

Looking at him like this, it seems that I can't wait to take a photo and take a group photo immediately, so that I can be published in the newspapers of the Allied countries with such legendary figures as soon as possible!

"You didn't disappoint me! Mr. President praised you very much, and I will award you a medal immediately when I return to New York!"

Colonel Phillips whispered the news close to Luke's ear.

Carter's beautiful eyes flickered on the side. She did not expect that the young Brooklyn people who met at the Stark Industry Fair would one day become a war hero of the Allied countries.

There is nothing more wonderful about life's encounters than this.

At the behest of the American military, Luke's name has spread throughout the Allies, and the legendary deeds are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Compared with the Captain America who is known to every family by staying on stage selling bonds and performing in costumes, it is easier for the soldiers to recognize him when he sneaks into the base camp behind the enemy alone and makes an amazing feat of shocking the world!

"I just won this war for the Confederates and made a small contribution, like every soldier fighting on the front lines."

Luke humbly responded to Colonel Phillips' praise, which was even more appreciated.

A soldier who remains calm in the face of applause and flowers is the right person to be a general.

...

...

The night is draped in tulle, and it is coming.

The Venetian Palace, which has experienced a fierce battle, has been cleaned and cleaned by the Italians, and it has become brand new - if you ignore the destroyed open-air balcony of the dormitory, and the collapsed dungeon.

Those hornet-like walls were repainted and carved with more exquisite patterns.

The blood-stained marble floor was condensed, and after cleaning, it was as clean as a mirror.

Fallen crystal chandeliers, damaged oil paintings, broken railings... all of these have been restored and replaced.

Soothing music flows in the air of the Palazzo Venezia.

Those princes, ministers, and elites all dressed up and came here as if they were going to a ball.

The protagonist of this banquet is naturally Luke in a straight military uniform.

Everyone was curious about what this war hero who led a team alone, broke through the city of Rome and liberated Italy, looked like.

When they saw Luke, who was tall and straight, they were not disappointed.

His face is stern and his eyes are deep, like a hero who came out of Greek mythology, which makes people feel convinced.

Although this Allied Captain is still very young, his aura is no less than that of the princes and dignitaries present, and no one dares to despise him!

——It is not ruled out that this is the influence of the achievement of "Legendary Man".

"Guess where the Allies are going to promote you?"

The party was staggered, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves, as if he had left the war behind. After socializing with a group of members of the royal family, high-ranking officials, Luke was pulled aside by Colonel Phillips in his spare time.

"Colonel? Or Lieutenant Colonel?"

Luke held a glass of champagne with a relaxed smile on his face.

He is too young, even if he has real achievements, he still lacks qualifications.

Remember that the most famous general in American history, Douglas MacArthur, was promoted to major general at the age of forty-five.

Luke knew in his heart that no matter whether the military or the president, it was impossible for him to be promoted too high all at once.

First of all, it will lead to criticism and dissatisfaction.

Secondly, it is also difficult to convince the public, after all, he has no foundation now.

Relying on the name of a war hero is not enough to settle the bosses of various factions in the military.

What's more, the false name of "hero" can be made up, and it is the least valuable!

"In the beginning, I was preparing to award a colonel. Colonel officers under the age of 20 are enough to reward you, but..."

A cheerful smile appeared on Colonel Phillips' old face.

"Italians don't agree! Especially the royal family, if a mere colonel conquers the city of Rome, it will make them lose face!"

The government of the Kingdom of Italy would never accept it. A colonel with less than 30 people dared to break into the city of Rome, kidnapped Mussolini in a grand manner, and made 40 million people tremble.

This is so embarrassing!

And will make Italy a laughing stock!

"so?"

Luke raised his eyebrows in surprise, but the result was beyond his expectations.

"Congratulations, Luke, for being the youngest general in American history!"

Colonel Phillips replied.
