A few days later, the Allies intercepted a secret message.
The content is: Due to the recent destruction of several important experimental bases by the evil Allied forces, His Excellency the Führer was very angry and ordered the Red Skull to immediately counterattack effectively and destroy the Allied resistance forces at all costs.
To know intelligence like this, the Allies were able to intercept hundreds of them every day.
Basically, all of them were issued from Berlin, orders from the Führer himself, and sent to the generals in front of the major fronts.
From commanding the strategic plan of a certain regiment to ordering a company to stay where they are and not to retreat, it fully reflects his love of micro-manipulation.
Originally, the Allies didn't care much about this kind of information, after all, it didn't have any substantive significance.
But in the next few days, Berlin sent a total of eighteen telegrams, all of which were urging the Red Skull to act as soon as possible.
Then a piece of information sent to Berlin from somewhere in the Siberian Icefield lifted the spirits of the Allied decipherers.
It was a piece of information from the Hydra headquarters, and the Red Skull replied to the head of state.
The intelligence vaguely mentioned an experiment, which the Red Skull called 'can be reversed in one fell swoop', 'easy to destroy the allied resistance force', 'the key to human evolution in the new era', just need the Führer to wait patiently for half a month, He will be able to lead the Hydra to conquer all resistance.
A large amount of human experiment data was stored in a base destroyed by Captain America before.
These experimental data all show that Hydra is conducting a secret research, creating a huge space-time essence stagnation stand by replicating the powerful ability of the 'mother', and even inventing a 'weapon that accelerates time in the area'.
This secret plan attracted the attention of the Allies.
Because once this secret experiment is successful, the enemy they will face is a monster that can manipulate time.
The Howling Commandos are tasked with thwarting Hydra's conspiracy at all costs.
And all the information about this plan will be sealed and sent to the Pentagon in the United States.
According to the sporadic clues mentioned in the intelligence, Howard successfully reversed the source of the signal through the black technology left by the German army, and found the hiding place of the Red Skull, which is located in an underground base between the Alps.
Now that the Red Skull's hiding place has been determined, the next step is to develop an attack plan.
The members of the Roaring Commando are not only limited to the combat team, but also a series of logistics support personnel, such as Howard Stark, Peggy Carter, etc. At this time, everyone is surrounded by the sand table of war, carrying out fierce battles. discuss.
"I still don't feel right."
Howard folded his hands on his chest, frowned and said: "Red Skull has always been very cautious. It is easy to reveal his position with such intensive telegram communication. He will not be unaware of this matter, I think there must be something wrong!"
"I agree with Howard's opinion." Peggy, as the rear commander of the squad, also held a serious skeptical attitude: "From our past experience with the Hydra, it is unlikely that the Red Skull will reveal such a big flaw. Man, this base must have been leaked on purpose."
"Perhaps, as you say, it's a trap."
Steve sat on a chair, put his hands on his chin, stared at the sand table, and said solemnly: "But we have no choice, unless we are willing to use the lives of tens of millions of soldiers on the front line to bet on this. A secret base, a trap set by the Red Skull."
As soon as these words came out, Howard and Peggy were speechless.
"Answer my question, do you dare to bet on this possibility?" Steve stood up slowly, with a hint of oppression in his voice: "In case the Red Skull is really hiding in this base, in case that plan is really If it succeeds, what will be the consequences?"
"The Allies are defeated...they will rule the whole world." Howard said bitterly: "I can't imagine what kind of dark abyss mankind will go to under the rule of terrorism."
"Maybe... we can wait a little longer, wait until the authenticity of the information is confirmed, and then act, instead of blindly crashing into the trap of the Red Skull as we are now." Peggy bit her lip, and this reason continued. She couldn't convince herself.
"Peggy, you know very well that this is not the right way to do it." Steve stared into the woman's eyes, where there was deep concern, but he still said firmly: "We can't afford to gamble, the Allies gamble. No, so I have to go, even if it's a trap."
During the quarrel among the three, a soldier barges in with surprising news.
Through the spies installed by the Allied forces, the Red Skull was secretly photographed, and it was determined that he was at the mountain base.
But here's the thing... Red Skull only stays for eight hours.
After eight hours, he would move the entire base and hide again.
This time card was very accurate. The Allies could not mobilize large-scale aircraft to bomb the area within eight hours. Too few fighters could not break through the defense of the base, and it also prevented the possibility of large-scale infantry assaults.
It has to be said that the Red Skull's calculation is quite accurate, cutting off the way they want to ask for backup.
"It's really the Red Skull..." Howard looked at the photo, and after a long silence, he sighed: "This is an invitation letter, he is inviting you to come over, and he will tell us his location in an open and honest way, and We can't say no."
After dealing with the Red Skull for so long, how could they not know the character of this guy?
His whereabouts were photographed by Allied spies. This kind of lie is almost as good as deceiving children. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. This photo is obviously made by him deliberately. The purpose is to invite Captain America Steve Rogers.
The thoughts and contests of the two sides were put on the table at this moment.
The meaning of the Red Skull is obvious, not even the slightest concealment, that is, to be honest and to force Captain America to come over.
In order to make Captain America voluntarily jump into the trap, Red Skull did not hesitate to use himself as a bait, and also added a heavy weight to the already tilted scale, the time stagnation and time acceleration mentioned in the plan. arms.
Even if the plan had only a one in ten thousand chance of success, Steve couldn't just sit idly by.
He couldn't bet on the 1 in 10,000 probability of the success or failure of the entire Allied army.
Choose, only one.
Accept the invitation of the Red Skull and go to the Longtan Tiger Den.
"Let all the team members stand by." With a sharp look in Steve's eyes, he said: "Whether it is a trap or not, we must break through, although it is very dangerous, but this is our only chance to destroy Hydra !"
"I understand what you mean Howard took a deep look at him, and finally nodded: "I'm going to check the equipment now, although some things have just been invented, but ... still bring Well, it should work. "
After that, Howard glanced at Peggy again and said, "You should have something to say, so I won't disturb you."
After Howard left, Peggy's eyes were full of water vapor, her teeth were biting her red lips, her palms clenched her sleeves tightly, trying to control her emotions.
Steve couldn't hold back his surging emotions any longer, and stepped forward to take Peggy into his arms.
He sniffed the slightly fragrant hair on the tip of his nose, and hugged Peggy with both arms, as if to integrate her into himself.
"You still... owe me a dance."
Peggy leaned against the man's arms, listened to his heartbeat, and said softly, "Next Saturday... at the Stork Club, at eight o'clock, don't be late, understand?"
"Wait for me, Peggy."
Steve said firmly: "I will definitely come back, then...you teach me to dance."
