These days, Hydra is busy with the research of the enhanced version of the super serum. Although it is very important for the Red Skull to unify the world, from the heart, the Red Skull pays more attention to the effect of the enhanced version of the super serum. .
He also couldn't wait to develop an enhanced version of the super serum so that he could become a real god, so these days, Red Skull's focus is on the research of the secret laboratory.
Under his urging, Dr. Erkins and Dr. Hank Pym's research work on the enhanced version of the super serum was progressing rapidly.
Compared with the Hydra side, the U.S. military is very serious. In the past two years, under the attack of the Hydra army, the U.S. military can be said to have retreated steadily. Weapons have dealt an overwhelming blow to these US military forces.
First of all, in terms of power, the power of magic weapons is generally stronger than weapons of this era; just like a small magic gun, its power is no worse than that of a cannon. The power is even more terrifying. Therefore, in terms of firepower, Hydra is far stronger than the current US military. What's more, in the scientific research department of Hydra, the weapons made by the Cosmic Rubik's Cube are becoming more and more powerful. Diversified.
Secondly, in terms of consumption; the energy in the Rubik's Cube is almost inexhaustible. In terms of consumption, Hydra has no worries at all, but the US military is not so generous.
The long-term war has already made the U.S. military show a weak posture. Simply put, the entire United States does not have enough money to buy or make weapons to support them in fighting.
Just like in the original book, Captain America was almost dragged on a parade across the United States, persuading the public to buy American bonds.
A great man once said it well: In war, the most important thing to fight is the advanced level of weapons and the amount of resources in hand.
However, in these two aspects, the U.S. military is not as good as Hydra. Therefore, the further the war reaches the back, the more obvious the defeat of the United States. It is conceivable that even the situation in the United States is so difficult. It can be seen Other countries must be no better...
In such a difficult situation, the U.S. military knows that there is no way to win a game in the competition of resources and weapon power, so it can only pin its hopes on manpower.
Fortunately, there are more citizens in the United States than the Hydra organization. If you want to defeat Hydra, you can only rely on the advantage of numbers. Moreover, you can't be ordinary people, you must be super soldiers...
Yes, super soldiers, the U.S. military, pinned their hope of victory on the plan of super soldiers.
Although the super-soldier project was interrupted because Dr. Erkins was taken away, Dr. Erkins' research materials and several successfully produced super-soldier serums are still there. The U.S. military has assembled a group of top The scientists who took over the work of Dr. Erkins seem to have made some breakthroughs over the past year. These scientists have successfully reproduced the same super serum as Dr. Erkins, but the only problem is The reason is that several human clinical trials have failed.
For a while, the U.S. military's super soldier program fell into a stalemate.
On this day, several senior officials of the U.S. military and several scientists in charge of the super soldier program gathered together to discuss how to break the current deadlock.
Of course, the person in charge of the U.S. military questioned more, why did Dr. Erkins' super serum successfully replicated, but still failed? The tone of the questioning is naturally unpleasant, and speaking in a hurry, a scientist below couldn't help complaining: "There is no way to do this, after all, even Dr. Erkins himself didn't do it What about the cases of successful clinical trials, perhaps, this super serum has some requirements that we don’t know about the strengthened people?”.
"What you mean is that you have no responsibilities at all, right?" In the eyes of the top U.S. military, the scientist's words, although true, are preposterous. In short, the current situation in the country requires It's not the reason, but the result!
"Wait...", but at this moment, on this conference table, Howard Stark suddenly spoke, as if remembering something.
As a U.S. military weapons supplier and a member of the U.S. Strategic Reserve Department, Howard Stark also attended the meeting.
"Howard? Do you have anything to add?" Hearing Howard Stark's words, the high-level US military asked at the meeting; Howard is not only the largest contractor of military weapons, but also a top scientist, I don't know Did he discover anything.
"When Dr. Erkins was taken away, I also heard about him. The place where he was taken away was in a recruiting office, right? I heard that Dr. Erkins admired a recruit very much. Advocate that he accept the transformation of a super soldier, right?" Howard Stark asked the senior military officers present.
These words made these high-level officials look slightly embarrassed. After all, Dr. Erkins was indeed arrested at the recruiting office. It can be said that he was taken away in front of them. , It simply made the top leaders of the US military feel ashamed.
However, this is indeed the case, so despite some embarrassment, these senior military officials nodded and acknowledged Howard Stark's words.
"But, that little guy is too thin, as if he's never had enough to eat." But then, some high-ranking US military officials shook their heads and said.
Dr. Erkins advocated the remaining soldiers. As Dr. Erkins was taken away, the high-level US military naturally paid attention to it for a period of time. However, Steve Rogers' physique is really thin for the army. It's poor, and he doesn't have any special talents, so he gradually lost attention to Steve.
"That's the problem," Howard Stark nodded upon hearing this.
"In recent days, none of our experimental subjects has been able to succeed. Does it mean that the injection of the super serum does not require physique? At least the physique is definitely not the main thing, but some other things are needed. , Dr. Erkins, thinks that guy named Steve Rogers has it, so, in my opinion, might as well let that Steve Rogers try it, after all, that's Dr. Erkins' choice, isn't it?".
Howard Stark's words made these high-level US military officers silent. If Howard Stark made such a suggestion in the past, these high-level US military officers would never care. After all, that Steve Too weak and small, these high-level US military officials prefer strong and strong men.
However, several strong soldiers failed one after another, and Dr. Erkins valued Steve. It can be said that the reason why Dr. Erkins was taken away was because he went to the recruiting office on purpose. , made an exception and admitted Steve.
At this time, maybe we should really trust Dr. Erkins once
What Howard Stark said, not to mention the silence of these high-level US military officials, even the scientists responsible for the research on super serums looked at each other in blank dismay.
Strong people fail, can weak people succeed? But this is the choice of Dr. Erkins. As the inventor of the super serum, why did he value such a thin little guy so much? Could it be? For a super serum to succeed, don't you really need physical fitness
"Well, if this is the case, then you should prepare quickly. When the time comes, let Steve Rogers come and try it yourself, everyone. I hope you will succeed, and we don't have much time." With the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, these high-level US military officials made a final decision after deliberating, and then got up and left.
And these scientists immediately started preparing for the next human experiment, a thin little guy? Need a super serum? At this moment, even these few scientists have no confidence.
"You don't have to worry. Since Dr. Erkins chose the boy named Steve, he must have his ideas. At that time, you can just experiment as usual." Howard Stark is also a scientist after all, and he understands the meaning of these scientists Worried, he opened his mouth to comfort him and left.
The top brass of the U.S. military gave Howard Stark a job, which is to ask him to do the ideological work for Steve first, and also explain to him in detail that this time the super soldier plan is for himself and for the entire United States. meaning.
"Hey, those who can do more work...", this lobbying job was actually handed over to him, Howard Stark sighed helplessly, and after saying such a shitty sentence, he found Steve Rogers.
Find a barracks to sit down, Howard Stark, and have someone bring Steve Rogers in front of him.
When he saw Steve for the first time, Howard reflexively wanted to turn around and leave. Although he knew that Steve Rogers was a very thin person, Howard Stark still felt famous when he saw him. It's better to meet him, this is as thin as a little chick, even a woman, maybe stronger than him, Dr. Erkins, why did you choose this little guy
Well, even Howard Stark, who advocated letting Steve try, began to doubt whether Dr. Erkins' vision was correct that day.
"Mister, hello, are you looking for me?" After entering the barracks, Steve Rogers sat down in front of Howard Stark unceremoniously and asked.
"Steve Rogers, right? I belong to the US military's logistics reserve department. I'm looking for you today because I have a task for you. This task may have a bearing on the safety of the entire United States..." Well, although I also have some doubts in my heart, but the matter has come to this point, and I can only force the ducks to go on the shelf.
"Sir, I am ready to sacrifice for the country!".
However, before Howard finished speaking, Steve said loudly, with a solemn expression, which made Howard startled slightly, and then a smile appeared on his face. It seems that this little guy is not useless.
