I Am In Marvel Chapter 57: National card
Under Fury's guidance, Kyle followed to the command room of the US headquarters.
"You go in, I'm just helping to deliver a message." Fury stopped at the door of the command room and motioned for Kyle to go in alone.
"Okay, I'll see you later."
Kyle nodded and walked directly into the command room without any stage fright.
The interior is monotonous and simple, with a huge strategic map as a decorative background banner, plus an American flag with stripes and stars. A middle-aged officer is sitting behind a military desk filled with documents.
The middle-aged officer looked to be in his early forties, with a majestic and tough face. He was wearing a complete set of officer uniforms. On the left chest of the uniform, there was a distinguished military rank badge of general level clearly pinned on it, with five more stars on it. star.
Five-star general! The highest-ranking general in the United States during World War II was also the highest commander of the Triple Alliance Army!
Kyle looked at the general officer in front of him, stood firm on his feet and gave a standard salute, and said in a loud voice: "Major Kyle, come and report!"
General Chester raised his head, looked sharply at Kyle, who was standing three meters in front of him, and then nodded with a gentle smile, "Major Kyle, you are back."
Kyle nodded and said: "Yes, during the battle in the Alps, while chasing Schmidt, the leader of Hydra, some accidents occurred. Steve piloted an out-of-control fighter plane and crashed into the sea. I parachuted early and escaped. ."
"Steve... I have read the telegram sent by Agent Carter for the specific details." General Chester sighed regretfully and said to Kyle: "As long as you can come back safely, it will be The greatest victory for our army is that at this critical moment of World War II, war heroes cannot fall easily."
General Chester paused here for a moment and said meaningfully: "Actually, I personally have wanted to meet you for a long time. You must know that the super soldier experiment was originally completed according to the instructions given by me. You refused the forerunner experiment of super soldiers and gave the opportunity to Steve who was in the same military camp. This is still fresh in my memory."
Kyle was ashamed, shrugged and said: "On this point, I can only say that I was too proud at the time and did not cherish the opportunity to become a super soldier. Fortunately, I was lucky enough and became the second one by coincidence. A super soldier."
"It turns out that you have that proud capital." General Chester shook his head gently and said in a deep voice: "After Steve became the only super soldier, I was also very optimistic about the American justice and steel in him. Will, so I specially taught him fighting skills."
"The fact that Steve can become Captain America and an American hero is beyond my expectations, but it is also within my expectations."
"It's you - Kyle, from a new recruit in the training base to repeatedly creating war miracles on the frontline battlefield, step by step through your own strength to the hero status that dominates the battlefield now, it can be said that it is far beyond my imagination. ."
After General Chester finished speaking, he looked at Kyle with undisguised admiration.
"Luck, it's all luck." Kyle said modestly. This general has boasted himself to the sky, so he must keep a low profile.
"If it's all luck, I probably hope that the goddess will spend all her luck on you." General Chester joked, and then said seriously: "Yesterday, after knowing that you returned to the training base safely, I specifically contacted the president to discuss your matter."
"Discuss with me?" Kyle was slightly stunned, waiting for General Chester's next words.
General Chester said seriously: "I suggest that you be promoted to the rank of major general as an exception, and the president has approved it."
Major, major general?
Kyle was really stunned this time. What does major general mean? That's an officer at the level of a general!
Although I have had the proud experience of being promoted from recruit to corporal, from corporal to second lieutenant for meritorious service, and from second lieutenant to major based on my military merit, the magnitude of the jump this time is really astonishing.
You must know that each promotion from major to a lower level requires a lot of time and accumulation of military merit. It was less than a month since Kyle was promoted to the rank of major.
"General Chester, I probably haven't accumulated enough military merit to be promoted to major general yet." Kyle said hesitantly.
"Hahaha, you said that if I relied solely on military merit or performance, I would have struggled for fifty years, and at most I would have been a four-star general." General Chester laughed, woke up Kyle and said, "But now During World War II, there were exceptions to everything!"
That's right. The only five-star general in the United States appeared during World War II.
Kyle nodded thoughtfully.
General Chester continued: "Those military rules in peacetime do not apply here. As long as you can better guide the war to victory, let alone major general, you can even do the position of five-star general." !"
"You're just a major general. I have no reason to dare to sit down." Kyle nodded confidently and threw out his last concern: "It's just that on the battlefield, compared to commanding soldiers, I am better at killing enemies alone. .Isn’t it too luxurious to give me the status of major general?"
"It's not extravagant at all." General Chester smiled and replied: "With your current reputation and prestige as a war hero, even if you are promoted to major general status as an exception, all our soldiers will only raise their hands in approval."
“What’s more important is that the upcoming battle against Germany~IndoMTL.com~ is fought by the Allied Forces led by our army. As a hero representing our country in the expedition, your status as a major will inevitably make some other countries’ The officers looked down upon it."
Hearing this, Kyle quickly understood.
General Chester made an exception and promoted him to major general, not only for him, but also for the face of the entire country and the army.
The hero who symbolizes national strength and conquest is just a major? That won't work, at least the general level has cards!
General Chester finally said slowly: "Part of the army under your command can be handed over to officers whom you trust enough to command. If there are no other problems, you will be a major general from now on, and the corresponding military rank badges can be handed over now Here you go. I will also hand over the relevant information for you, and this promotion message will be spread before our army joins the Allied Forces."
"General, you have arranged everything a long time ago, so why should I refuse?" Kyle spread his hands. This is forcing him to come over with the rank of major general. There is no reason not to accept it.
Five minutes later, Kyle left the command room speechlessly.
Fury had been waiting not far outside the door of the command room. When he saw Kyle coming out, he immediately went up to greet him: "Hey, Kyle. What's the matter? You look gloomy?"
"See for yourself." Kyle raised his left shoulder expressionlessly.
"Huh? How did your rank of major become a star..." Fury stopped in shock, wiped his right eye, and said bitterly with his eyes wide open: "My other eye Is there something wrong? Why did I see the badge imprint of the rank of Major General?"
"You read that right, the rank of major general." Kyle said boringly.
Promotion is a good thing. The problem is, being promoted to major general like this is really unfulfilling!
