Chapter 345 The Young Bird Must Leave the Nest to Truly Fly
"Rumlow, you lead Team A to defend the aerospace carrier. Be careful of Loki's counterattack!"
On the bridge of the aerospace carrier, which was in a mess due to the battle between Hulk and Thor, a large number of special operations members of the SHIELD Rapid Response Force gathered, and its leader Brock Rumlow was also in the queue.
Laini, who has been recognized by a group of SHIELD field staff with her influence, is standing in front of a group of team members and giving orders loudly:
"Bart, you and Price will lead Team B and Team C to New York respectively. I need you to control the underground facilities and subway lines around New York Central Station in the shortest time, and then assist the local police to complete the evacuation of personnel, so as to buy time for General Ross's army to arrive..."
After roughly explaining the mission deployment, Lainie then turned her attention to the members of Team B and Team C who were waiting for battle.
"This mission is very important. The enemies we are about to face are no longer terrorists and warmongers, but alien creatures with unknown appearance and unknown abilities! Therefore, I don't need you to fight ten or one hundred at a time. Leave the task of dealing with those monsters to us. You only need to cooperate with the military and police to reduce the casualties of ordinary people as much as possible. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
The two captains and Lainie are old friends. Bart, an old man who participated in the Mexican operation with Lainie, naturally needs no introduction.
Although the captain of Team C, Price, has not known Lainie for a long time, he has fully witnessed Lainie's true strength after the Libya operation, and his trust in Lainie is naturally extraordinary.
Therefore, the two captains had no objection to Lainie's sudden call for them to take command. They also knew that it was a critical moment, and naturally who could listen to who, so they responded without hesitation after receiving the order.
"OK, I'll explain the details of the mission on the way. Now everyone get on the plane and get ready to go!"
"Action!"
...
Time goes back to a few minutes ago. After Tony realized what the arrogant Loki wanted to do, his expression immediately became very ugly.
"Why does it sound like he's talking about himself?"
Clint's undisguised "whisper" mockery at the door of the conference room made Tony's already dark face even more embarrassed.
But there was no way. Tony, who was still self-aware, could only pretend that he didn't hear it, and then walked quickly towards the cabin where the iron armor was parked.
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, the remaining people in the conference room immediately turned their eyes to Lainie, hoping that she could give an idea.
Obviously, Lainie has become the backbone of this room. Even if Nick Fury himself comes, it may be difficult to take back the command of the Avengers from Lainie.
"We will go to New York immediately!"
Looking at Steve who hadn't changed into his uniform, Lainie took the lead and walked towards the preparation room.
"Skye, can you hear me?"
Halfway through, Lainie sensed the location of Skye and the others through the radar system, and immediately contacted them through the internal communication channel of the investigation team.
"I'm here, what happened? I saw Colonel Rhodes left in a hurry..."
"You lead the members of the investigation team to the bridge to board the plane immediately, and leave the repair work of the communication system to others. Melinda should still be on the plane. I need you to board the plane and prepare for takeoff immediately. I will tell you the details on the way!"
After saying this, Lainie signaled Clint and others to go first without paying attention to the situation on Skye's side, and then turned a corner and went straight to the command room of the rapid response force.
...
"What happened? Why does Colonel Rhodes look so ugly?"
Seeing Skye hang up the communication, Fitz, who was still repairing the communication system, also realized that something was wrong and hurriedly asked.
"I don't know, but Lainie told us to go to the bridge immediately. Melinda is waiting for us on the plane."
Skye was a little confused about the situation, but she could still tell the priorities. After explaining Lainie's orders, Skye and Fitz quickly packed up their equipment.
The same was true for Mester, who was silent on the side. Although she pretended to be unaware on the surface, she had already noticed the strangeness on Rhodes' face when he hurried away just now through magic, and used it to confirm her guess.
"Is it Stark Tower?"
No one else knew what Mester was thinking, but the clanging noise in the command room obviously attracted the attention of a group of SHIELD agents, including Nick Fury and Agent Hill who were in the center.
"Are they... going to leave?"
Agent Hill realized something and quickly called up the situation of several Quinjet fighters that were still well preserved and on standby on the bridge.
As expected, the SHIELD 13 fighter of the investigation team was ready to take off at this time, and it seemed that it could set off at any time.
"It seems that Lainie and the others have found Loki's hiding place."
After staring at the actions of the investigation team for a while, Nick Fury turned around and pretended not to see it.
"Let them go, the young birds have to leave the nest to truly enjoy flying."
Looking at the endless sky outside the bridge, Nick Fury pretended to be deep and pondered for a while, then suddenly turned his head to look at the SHIELD agents watching the show.
"What are you still looking at! Why don't you fix the communication system quickly! Everyone has set off, and we don't even know where the enemy is! Are you still in the mood to watch the fun now?"
…
"Tony, you and Roddy are fast. You go first and try your best to prevent Dr. Silvig from opening the portal. If nothing can be done, don't confront Loki head-on. His scepter is very evil..."
On the SHIELD Quinjet, Leni asked Skye to use the communication equipment on the SHIELD 13 fighter to temporarily build a new communication channel for everyone, and use SHIELD 13 itself as a springboard to repair the communication. communicate with the system’s space carrier.
"I know it without you having to tell me, Jarvis, increase the propulsion coefficient to the maximum!"
Looking at the steel armor that turned into two streaks of light outside the fighter plane's window, Leni sighed helplessly.
There was no way, at this level of flying speed, the Quinjet he was sitting on was simply out of reach. At the moment, he could only hope that nothing would go wrong with Tony and the other two.
Turning her head and looking at Aegis 13, which was flying at high speed, Leni continued to give the order:
"Melinda, after we arrive over New York City later, I need you to provide vision for ground personnel from the air and assist us in rescuing people. With the performance of Aegis 13, this will not be difficult for you."
Melinda, who was sitting in the driver's seat of SHIELD 13 next to her, nodded when she heard this and whispered back "received."
Colson's sacrifice also hit her hard. Although the relationship between the two was not that close, they had known each other for so long. It would be difficult for anyone to accept the sudden bad news from a friend around her.
Therefore, after hearing the news, Melinda has been alone on the plane. It seems that only here can her originally troubled heart regain peace.
"The investigation team is responsible for maintaining the communication frequency band and providing aerial vision. Team B is responsible for the various blocks north of Stark Tower. I need you to clear several streets around Stark Tower as soon as possible. Team C is responsible for To the south, where the enemy’s strength is, to ensure safety, all of you should equip yourself with large-caliber weapons!”
After sending the tactical hologram of the planned area to the other two accompanying Quinjets, Leni turned to look at Steve who was adjusting his state with his eyes closed in the cabin.
As if he had a premonition of something, Steve opened his eyes and looked at Leni.
"Captain, if chaos breaks out later, I may not be able to take care of the combat command. You have rich practical experience. I will leave it to you to coordinate the military and police work later."
"No problem, I will hold on until reinforcements arrive."
Steve didn't say much and responded simply, but the serious expression on his face didn't look relaxed at all.
"I have asked Roddy to contact General Ross, who promised to send troops to support, but the specific arrival time is unknown. That guy Loki is very cunning. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, we must prepare for the worst. …”
Leni was planning to make the final pre-war mobilization for the upcoming war, but she was interrupted by Natasha on the side before she finished speaking:
"Wait a minute Leni! Look over there!"
With everyone's astonished gazes, Leni turned her head and looked at the sky in the distance in the center of New York City...
After asking a doctor friend for some information, Cheng Zi didn't seem to have a cold, but a yang. If you don’t have a fever or a cough, you just have a stuffy and runny nose and a dry throat, you are basically positive. But it doesn’t affect your life. You should code words and games.
