Chapter 34 The Reward of the Allied Powers, the Youngest General

A few days later, noon.

Several jeep slowly drove into Venice Square, with Colonel Phillips and Peggy Carter sitting on it.

This white marble is located in the circular square in the center of Rome, surrounded by Italian defenders.

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

It’s no wonder that these Italians mobilized the crowd and created a stunning formation of fanfare.

The huge noise that happened in the Venice Palace a few days ago almost made the Italian king think that it was Allied tanks entering the city. The air force launched a bombing and was so scared that he got up from bed late at night and didn't fall asleep all night.

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

"It seems Captain Cavill has scared these Italians very much."

Colonel Phillips said in a victorious gesture.

He opened the car door, walked down from inside, and looked at the Palace of Venice.

The others also looked at the balcony on the second floor.

Mussolini lived there and delivered the famous "Balcony Speech".

And he spoke those inflammatory speeches to the Italian people and promised many seemingly beautiful futures.

And now, the dictator has been defeated and the country chooses to surrender.

All the beauty has become a bubble.

The Wisney Square gradually crowded with Italian people.

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

The arrogant Mussolini, who once guided the country, was like an eggplant made from frost, shook his shoulders and was lifted up in humiliation.

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

Like a divine weapon descending from the sky, the opponent suddenly rushed into the Venice Palace, knocked down all the guards, and defeated the team that Hillert came to rescue.

Let yourself, who is the ruler of Italy, be reduced to a prisoner of a little captain!

A cheer soon rang out in the quiet square, followed by warm applause like tsunami.

The sound waves followed by waves, spreading in all directions with Piazza Venice as the center, spreading from one block to another!

"Liberate Italy! Long live freedom!"

"Down with the dictator! Mussolini stepped down!"

"Hang him! Hang this demon!"

Such slogans continued to emerge among the warm and solemn cheers, and more people began to gather towards Piazza Venice.

Everyone looked excited and raised their arms and shouted!

Mussolini's dictatorship led to the prevalence of fascism.

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

Therefore, in the eyes of the people who live a miserable life, Luke is not a hateful invader, but a great hero who liberated this country from the hands of the dictator!

Well, this is very consistent with the Italians' worship of romantic personality!

"The original decision was indeed correct."

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

He prefers the former by taking the initiative and completing tasks passively!

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

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

"Long time no see, Luke!"

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

Seeing him like that, he seemed to want to take a photo immediately and take a photo together and join such legendary figures in the newspapers of the Allied Powers as soon as possible!

"You did not disappoint me! The President praised you very much, and I will immediately award you a medal when I return to New York!"

Colonel Phillips approached Luke's ear and whispered the news.

Carter's beautiful eyes flashed, she didn't expect that the young Brooklyn who met at the Stark Industrial Fair would one day become a war hero of the Allies.

This is the wonder of life experience.

Under the instruction of the American military, Luke's name has spread throughout the Allied forces, and the legendary deeds have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Captain America, who is known to be a household name, is more easily recognized by soldiers than to stay on stage to promote bonds and perform in costumes, who is known to everyone, like Luke, who sneaks into the base camp behind enemy lines and makes amazing achievements that have caused a sensation in the world!

"I just made some insignificant contributions to the Allies, just like every soldier fighting on the frontline."

Luke responded modestly to Colonel Phillips' compliments, and this behavior was even more admirable.

A soldier who can still remain calm in the face of applause and flowers is the right choice to become a general.

...

...

The night was covered in tulle and came gracefully.

After a fierce battle, the Palace of Venice has been cleaned up by the Italians and has become completely new - if you ignore the destroyed open-air balcony of the bedroom and the collapsed dungeon.

Those walls that look like hornet's nests are repainted and carved with more exquisite patterns.

The marble floor with blood stains condensed, was cleaned and cleaned like a smooth mirror.

Falling crystal chandeliers, damaged Renaissance paintings, broken railings... all of them are restored as before.

Soothing music flows in the air of the Palace of Venice.

The princes and ministers and the powerful class were dressed up one by one, and came here as if they were rushing to a dance party.

The protagonist of this banquet was naturally Luke in a well-decorated military uniform.

Everyone was curious about what this war hero who led a team alone to conquer the city of Rome and liberated Italy.

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

The face is cold and the eyes are deep, like a hero who comes out of Greek mythology, making people feel impressed.

Although this Allied Captain was still very young, his aura was no less than that of the princes and powerful people here, and no one dared to underestimate him!

——It is not ruled out that this is the impact of the achievements of the "Legendary Man".

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

The guests and guests were having fun, as if they had put the war behind their heads. After Luke had socialized, a group of royal members and senior officials were pulled aside by Colonel Phillips in his spare time.

"Colin? Or lieutenant colonel?"

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

I am too young, and even if I have real achievements, I still lack qualifications.

You should know that Douglas MacArthur, the most famous general in American history, was promoted to major general at the age of 45.

Luke knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to be promoted too high, whether it was the military or the president.

First of all, it will cause criticism and dissatisfaction.

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

Relying on the title of war heroes is not enough to settle the bosses of various factions of the military.

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

"At the beginning, I was preparing to award the colonel, and the colonel officer who was less than twenty years old was enough to reward you, but..."

Colonel Phillips showed a happy smile on his old face.

"The Italians disagree! Especially in the royal family, if they conquer the city of Rome just by a mere colonel, they will lose face!"

The Italian government would never accept it. A colonel with less than thirty people dared to break into the city of Rome. He kidnapped Mussolini in a dignified manner, which made 40 million people frightened. He even moved into the Venetian Palace like the Supreme Emperor to issue orders.

This is so embarrassing!

And it will make Italy a laughing stock!

"so?"

Luke raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and the result was beyond his expectations.

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

Colonel Phillips replied.
