Chapter 128

From Lei Rui into General Duke's office, Rogers has been sitting there, keeping silent, with a look of loneliness and depression on his face.

Maybe it was Gabriel's heaven hymn last night that made him realize the holiness after being assimilated. Now that he has fallen into the mundane world due to the huge gap, he is a little uncomfortable. It may also be that he is thinking about other things, just like Captain He Shu. In that way, I feel a little guilty towards Lei Rui, who knows?

Lei Rui turned to look at Rogers, and saw that his face had the divine radiance of insisting on faith again.

"It's not too much!" Lei Rui replied seriously, "I have already died once, so I cherish the time I am alive, but this mission is clearly a mission that must die, and it is clear that I will die again. Die last time! I just asked to receive my war death pension in advance, so that I can enjoy life before I die, is this too much to ask?"

"But you are a soldier! Ray! Soldier!" Rogers argued, "Soldiers should be prepared to die in battle!"

"I have already died on the battlefield! This mission will require me to die on the battlefield again!" Lei Rui spread his hands and replied.

"This is your duty and honor! Ray! You can't make such excessive demands!"

Lei Rui replied calmly: "There are pensions for those who die in battle. This is not an excessive requirement. Rogers, you don't need money. You can't just think that other people can be like you and don't need money! You Look, I need money, I need it very much! Do you think this is a ridiculous and excessive thing to receive your death pension in advance?"

Everyone fell silent and asked to receive their death pension in advance. It is indeed not a funny thing, but a very heavy topic, but Rogers obviously did not agree with Lei Rui's reason, shaking his head and said: "Lei! I admit that what you said is very reasonable, but you are a battle hero who came down from the battlefield, you can have nobler pursuits and loftier beliefs, and you shouldn't be so self-sufficient!"

"Rogers!" Lei Rui shouted, shaking his head and replied, "You have your beliefs and beliefs, and I have my pursuits! You have the ideals and paths you insist on, and I have the path I want to take! You can't Ask me for your faith and convictions, just as I will not ask you for my pursuits."

"Rodgers, before participating in the super soldier transformation program, I remember you once asked me, what is it like to fight on the battlefield? The answer I gave you at the time was that you have to experience it yourself to know. Maybe you should ask now How do I feel when I am trapped in the sea water in the bottom of the submarine, surrounded by darkness and unable to find a way out? I found that there was no one in the submarine, and it was pitch black everywhere, and the submarine was still sinking. What kind of feeling is it? When being washed out of the sea by the air current, what is the feeling of being immersed and floating in the vast sea alone?! My answer to you is still the same, you have to experience it yourself to know!"

"Perhaps after you have experienced it yourself, you will understand why I cherish the time I live so much! Only then can you understand why I need this money so urgently! I want to live a good life before dying in battle again!"

"Rodgers! Without this mortal task, I would not ask for my own pension! Instead, I would live very well in London! Live very well! But this task needs me! Not that I need this task! You Don't you think it's fun for me to receive my own pension for death in battle, and then receive another pension for death in battle in advance?"

"This is not fun! Rogers! It's not fun at all! It's not even funny! It's not too much!"

There was silence in the office. Everyone just thought that Lei Rui was standing here alive, and that the death pension was just a joke request, but they ignored the weight of being buried in the sea on the battlefield!Now they are forcing Lei Rui to pour out all these words, arousing the heaviness in their hearts.

General Duke coughed and asked, "Son, this request can be considered! Do you have any other requests? Let's finish it at once!"

Lei Rui looked at General Duke and replied: "Yes! General! I still have requests! For this mission, I ask for reasonable remuneration! Pay it in advance! I want the power to select team members and equipment! In addition, I ask for the ability to There is a set of weapons and equipment specially designed for me, which is made of a similar material to Captain Rogers' shield! If you don't have enough time to make this request, you can wait until after this mission. Of course, if I can come back intact! With these requirements, General !”

General Duke was noncommittal, nodded and replied: "Okay! I will consider these requests of yours! You can go!"

Lei Rui saluted, nodded to Captain He Shu, turned and left, and when he walked to the door, Captain He Shu stopped him and asked, "Lei! Do you need me to tell Captain Taylor that they know about your return?" ?”

Lei Rui pondered for a while, then turned around and replied: "It's better not to, I don't want them to think too much about it! You know, it's not any of you's fault, and I don't mean to blame any of you, just let Maybe it's better that they don't know the news."

Outside the door, the two gendarmes who brought him here were still waiting to take him away.General Duke took a long breath and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"

"General! This precedent cannot be set! This is a matter of principle!" Rogers was the first to express his opinion.

Major Erritt met General Duke's gaze, spread his hands, and replied: "If we have enough options and time, I would rather send this kid to a military prison and a court-martial! But we didn't , there is no choice, there is not enough time! Damn! General! He has pinched our weakness! Fortunately, his request is not too much, General!"

The meaning was obvious. Although Major Errit was very reluctant, he had no choice but to agree to Lei Rui's request due to the situation.The other two men echoed Major Errit's sentiments.

Finally, General Duke looked at Captain He Shu, and Captain He Shu looked at the others, and replied sincerely: "General! My opinion is that his request can be met. If it wasn't for him, we would have all The army is annihilated! Not to mention the current advantages! His credit, his sacrifice, and the danger and importance of this mission in the Far East are enough to win him these requirements! These requirements are not excessive!"

General Duke stood up, nodded and said: "Okay! Major Erritt, get your team and supplies ready! Captain Hosh is ready to go to Moscow! I will report this to General Eisenhower. He is a member of the Army Rangers, I don't want the Army guys picking on the Admiralty! Call it a day, gentlemen! Major Erritt! What's the outcome of the investigation at Lockhard Mission Hospital last night?"
