Ares from the Marvel Universe

Chapter 17 Preparation

……

In the evening, the coalition forces arrived in the small town of Weald after a day of fighting. .1kanshu

The Allied forces carried a large amount of supplies and began to build fortifications around the town. They were preparing to open a passage from here and use this as a stronghold to enter Belgium.

Brigadier General Wavell had learned that the German troops in the town had been cleared, ordered the soldiers not to enter the town, and discussed with the officers whether it was necessary to evacuate all the residents of the town to France - it was obvious that this would become a new front line.

On the contrary, the coalition forces need to stabilize their footing and enter Belgium in large numbers before the Germans react.

The headquarters has integrated the forces of nearly 15 divisions and rushed here. As the only breakthrough in the Hindenburg Line of Defense, this place has received unprecedented attention from the Allied Powers.

Of course, professional matters should be left to professionals, and it is only right for everyone to perform their duties.

A total of 12 bullets were taken out of Ye Hua's body, most of which were concentrated in the back, thighs and arms.

"Steve, are you a monster?" The bullet barely broke through the skin, and the bullet was stuck in the muscle. The work of removing the bullet was extremely simple. Some unsatisfactory bullets did not even need to cut the skin and could be picked out with only tweezers. .

The only one that was deeper was just embedded in the muscle. Samir tried his best but failed to cut through Ye Hua's muscle tissue. This bullet was done by Diana.

Apply wound medicine and bandage, and the simple battlefield surgery is completed. There was no anesthetic, and Ye Hua didn't feel much pain, but Diana was extremely nervous.

"I'm fine." Ye Hua found a towel and washed his face. He was wearing bandages on his upper body and only a pair of shorts on his lower body. "It just looks scary. Look, not much blood seeped out."

Diana rolled her eyes at Ye Hua and realized that this guy was indeed fine, so she turned and left the room.

Samir looked at Ye Hua and joked, "You missed million."

The straight man Ye Hua looked confused, not knowing what was going on. He shook his head, prepared to wash his hair, and said to Samir, "Help me get dressed."

When Ye Hua came out after cleaning, he found Diana back again, with a pile of clothes on the bed. Just as he was wondering what Samir was doing, Samir also pushed the door open with a pile of clothes in his arms.

"Oh, you went to the wrong door!" Samir yelled, turned around and left, closing the door on the way.

"Does it hurt?" Diana broke the calm and reached out to take Ye Hua's shirt full of bullet holes.

"It's okay." Ye Hua answered honestly, "I have been shot before. That was the real nightmare. I am referring to "my" past. "

"I know, you said it." Diana said, "In the human world, I only have you as a friend. I don't want to lose you, but the human body is too fragile, just like my mother."

Seeing Diana recalling bad memories, Ye Hua was instantly possessed by Steve and changed the subject, "I thought you were already asleep at that time."

"I'm listening." Diana raised her eyebrows. "I'm just worried that you will die before you can help me find Ares."

"It doesn't matter, I won't die. Don't you still have it?" Ye Hua raised his wrist and took off the watch. The silver "redemption" was particularly conspicuous.

Seeing this, Diana disarmed her "prudence" and raised her wrist. The golden tattoo was on her forearm. Ye Hua saw the beautiful curve of her mouth and didn't know what to say for a while.

At this moment, the Belgian ran over and knocked on the door: "Mr. Steve, we are holding a celebration dance, do you want to come?"

Diana and Ye Hua came to their senses at the same time and replied, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

Night had fallen, and the town was filled with a festive atmosphere. Someone moved the piano out of the church and played Belgian folk songs. Men and women hugged each other and danced to the music.

Someone found supplies being distributed by the Germans, including winter coats, food, and beer. Because it is close to the headquarters, their supplies are much better than those of the rat-eating troops, and they can also fight against the autumn wind!

Samir got a few boxes of cans and a few bottles of beer, and then he magicked out an orange and handed it to Diana.

A few people sat by the pool in the square and finally had lunch during dinner time.

“German canned food tastes really bad,” Samir complained.

"Indeed." Ye Hua agreed. This should be considered the most unpleasant food he has eaten recently.

Diana ate with gusto, and things she had never experienced before were very interesting to her.

After eating, Samir tidied up and disappeared in front of them. He went to find the guy who escaped from the factory to get information. Margaret told him that this guy was still hiding in the town.

Samir's departure gave Ye Hua and Diana some time alone. The two of them held a glass of beer each and looked at these people enjoying the long-lost happiness.

"What are they doing?" Diana asked Ye Hua.

"Them?" Ye Hua followed Diana's fingers and looked over. A middle-aged couple hugged each other and swayed, and said, "It's like dancing..."

"Is human dance so simple?" Diana held her chin in one hand and held a beer in the other.

"That's not the case." Ye Hua took a sip of wine and replied, "This is just a way to communicate feelings and relax. Most people at parties will use such a simple way to entertain themselves physically and mentally. After all, it is not for performance."

"Amazon gatherings are not like this." Diana looked at Ye Hua and said, "We will pray to the gods together, or make wishes to the gods."

"Oh?" Ye Hua looked into Diana's eyes, "Athena?"

"Of course it's not just her." Diana replied, "Although the book says that she created the Amazons, she is not the only one we believe in. All good gods deserve to be respected."

"Speaking of which, although I promised to help you find Ares, we have no clue." Ye Hua said, "Diana, I have been doubting whether Ares really played a role in this war, including now." , I don’t know how we should find him.”

Diana shook her head and said it didn't matter. "Ares must have affected the war in some way. This is his priesthood, and Zeus has not been able to take it away."

"We have to plan. We have to find a way to sneak into the dance tomorrow. Besides, I always have a bad feeling." Ye Hua's intuition is often very accurate. "I always feel that the "time" is coming. "

Diana was confused, looked at Ye Hua doubtfully, and asked, "What time?"

"I don't know." Ye Hua couldn't figure it out himself, and suddenly thought of a plan, "Forget it, don't think about it. Ludendorff will bring together all the important figures in the German military and political circles at tomorrow's ball, and even the Kaiser will come. , I think we have to act according to the situation, it is best to directly capture Ludendorff and Elisabeth. As long as these two people are eliminated, the Germans will defeat themselves."

"Anyway, I don't have any good impressions of the Germans. As long as I don't implicate innocent people, I don't mind teaching them a heavy lesson." Diana put down the beer in her hand and jumped down from the steps, extending her soft skin to Ye Hua. "Since I want to attend the dance, don’t you think you can teach me human dance?”

Ye Hua recalled the dance steps in his mind, and did not refuse the girl's invitation. He took Rouyi from her and said, "It's my pleasure."

When the dance was about to end, Brigadier General Weiweier's communications troops found Ye Hua and told him that the general had something to discuss with him.

Ye Hua asked Diana to go back to her room to rest first, and he followed the communications troops to a group of broken houses in the west of the town. Ye Hua met the general who used this place as a temporary headquarters.

"Well done Captain!"

After returning the gift, the general did not hesitate to praise him and said to Ye Hua, "I have already reported your military exploits. I believe that your military rank will be promoted at least two levels in a row soon."

"The responsibility lies." Ye Hua responded loudly.

"I admire you very much. Are you interested in joining me as a commander?" Brigadier General Weaver extended an olive branch.

Ye Hua didn't have much interest in this and replied, "General, if the war is over, I want to return to my hometown and be an ordinary person."

"Okay..." Brigadier General Weiweier was very polite about this and did not show the slightest displeasure because of Ye Hua's rejection. "It doesn't matter. I didn't come to you to talk about this matter. Tomorrow evening, the first A batch of troops will arrive here, and we plan to enter Belgium the day after tomorrow and attack the Germans on the Hindenburg Line from both front and back in an effort to destroy their defense line."

"Today our people have completely eliminated the 'tongues' entering France. With this gap, the end of the war is just around the corner."

Brigadier General Weiweier motioned for Ye Hua to sit down and continued.

"Your mission is particularly important. The enemy's pharmaceutical factory must be destroyed. Do you have any idea about this?"

"The coordinates have been roughly located, but according to reliable information, the enemy did not stop the research and development of new poison gas because the notes were lost. The poison and medicine are both in the same factory." Ye Huahui reported, "We don't know the progress of the opponent's poison research and development, but we can It is determined that the production of enhanced agents is very low.”

Brigadier General Wavell nodded and made it clear, "We will cooperate with your actions and can send planes to blow up the factory if necessary. However, once the factory is destroyed, Elizabeth will become a big problem. As long as she is here, the Germans will still There’s a chance to make a comeback.”

"clear."

"In addition, the German army is unusually unprepared to close this gap. We must find out what they are planning to do tomorrow." Brigadier General Wavell added, "Leave it to you, Captain Steve."

"Understood." Ye Hua stood up, saluted and left.

Back in the central square of the town, the dance party had ended, leaving only Samir sitting on the steps.

"Hey, Steve." Samir saw Ye Hua coming back and invited him to drink together.

"Have you got the information?" Ye Hua sat next to him.

"Everything went well. The guy told me the location of the factory. It's not too far away. It's at most seven or eight miles from here." Samir opened a bottle of beer for Ye Hua and handed it to him, "What do you think about letting the coalition planes blow it up?" How about it."

"This is indeed a good idea. You and Brigadier General Weiweier came up with it together." Ye Hua nodded, "The plane is too conspicuous during the day. Tomorrow night you will be responsible for guiding the plane's route. Diana and I will go to the ball to assassinate Lu Dendorff and Elizabeth.”

"Aren't you afraid that the Germans will fight with their last resort?" Samir pointed out the problem. "Although they are already at the end of their strength, if this provokes them, it may be self-defeating."

"Then what do you think we should do?" Ye Hua raised his eyebrows, "Keep them here for the New Year?"

"..." Samir was speechless for a moment. The two of them clinked their glasses and drank the beer in them.

"Let's meet here tomorrow night." Ye Hua put down his beer glass. "Pay attention to safety. The entire Flanders Territory will be on heightened alert tomorrow. Go and set signals with friendly forces in the morning."

"Okay." Samir nodded, knowing that Ye Hua was worried about him.

……

The weather in Belgium in October was gloomy and cold. Ye Hua and Diana said goodbye to the residents of the town in the square early in the morning. They enthusiastically helped find two horses for them to ride, one black and one white.

Ye Hua was not surprised that Samir set off alone before dawn. He always showed unexpected professionalism during the mission.

Yesterday, I asked the residents of the small town to find a German officer's uniform. Fortunately, he was a colonel. Diana was still wearing her black fur, and Ye Hua was thinking of a way to get there. If it didn't work, he could just rob a lady attending the ball.

According to the map, the Supreme Command is located due north of the town. The two chatted about some interesting facts about the Amazon along the way. Diana told Ye Hua that her mother did not allow her to practice martial arts when she was a child, but Aunt Antiope often took her secretly. Horseback riding and archery filled her childhood with joy, especially because she could communicate with animals. Often during competitions, her aunt, a general, could never catch up with her.

While paying attention to the traces of Germans along the way, Ye Hua responded to Diana, "I think I can guess Queen Antiope's expression after losing."

"Yes, it's very interesting." Diana said happily. "My mother and the teacher often looked for me everywhere. My aunt and I hid here and there. We both failed once."

"That time you said that Adam was seduced by another female monkey with fruit?"

"Yes, after that, although my mother no longer cared about my martial arts training, my aunt became more and more strict." Diana recalled, "Until the day you appeared, I accidentally released the power to protect the silver bracelet and accidentally injured Anti." Aunt Op.”

"Diana." Ye Hua suddenly said, "If, I mean if, you find that humans are not because of Ares, and that this war is caused by humans themselves, will you give up on humans?"

Memory cannot be faked. In the previous life, the gods on earth were just myths and legends, but this war was still unavoidable, and there would be subsequent, more terrifying wars. Everything clearly told me to blame all the faults on a certain "god". Must be kidding.

"The Amazon books tell me that Ares is the starting point of all wars." Diana responded. "I think I need to confirm it with my own eyes before I can give the answer."

The two men bypassed the German cordon and arrived at the German high command - an old Belgian castle built on the edge of a cliff - after lunch.

There was only one road into the castle from the front, and the cars attending the dance were lined up in a long queue. Ye Hua saw many figures on the intelligence agency's blacklist. In a sense, this was a large gathering of war criminals.

Due to the presence of the Kaiser and the loss of the front line not far away, the inspection entering the venue was particularly strict. Ye Hua found that every guest present, regardless of military rank and position, had to get out of the car and undergo inspection. They were not allowed to carry any weapons. Women were not a big problem. , after all, they are all wearing tight-fitting dresses.

Ye Hua felt that there was no chance to sneak in. It would be easy to get in, but without knowing what medicine the Germans were selling, it was definitely not a good choice to rush in.

"I think we can get you some clothes first, and then climb up the cliff." Watching the convoy slowly enter the castle, Ye Hua finally made up his mind.

Diana had no problem with this, and a car happened to park near them, and a man and a woman got out of the car.

"I don't want to stay here all night, the French are coming, and this will be the front line soon!"

"Oh, dear, don't be angry. His Majesty the Emperor is here, so there will be no problem with safety." The man explained patiently, "Your Excellency, the General, will be showing off new weapons today. If I don't participate, I won't be part of the first batch." ."
