Marvel: It Starts with a Spell

Chapter 30: On the battlefield

Just like in the original novel, Steve was persuaded by Congressman Brandt to become an idol. He toured everywhere, made movies, and became a national idol in the United States, greatly increasing the number of people joining the army and the collection of military expenditures.

Li Huang has crossed the Atlantic Ocean and arrived at the European battlefield.

At this time in the European battlefield, the Nazis had a considerable advantage. Although the German army suffered a major defeat in Stalingrad in February 1943, the Allies were still at a disadvantage in the battle between them. Otherwise, the US officials would not want to increase military spending anymore, and Steve would not be touring the United States for military spending and conscription, calling on the public to buy and sell defense bonds.

Li Huang vomited a lot on the boat. He had been relying on teleportation to travel since his previous life and seldom took public transportation. The few times he took a boat were all on yachts near the coast. This time, he took the trip across the Atlantic Ocean on this ship with Colonel Phillips, Carter and others. In order not to expose his own uniqueness, he had to spend more than half a month on this ship.

"Boy, didn't you spit out the bile today?" Colonel Phillips teased Li Huang with a smile. In fact, after vomiting for more than a day, Li Huang had already gotten used to the life on the ship. After all, he had been injected with the original super soldier serum. Although there was only one, which could not be compared with the six injected by the original Steve, it also enhanced Li Huang's physical fitness and brain function.

But Phillips would joke about this throughout the voyage, after all, Li Huang's military training results were excellent.

"No, Colonel Phillips, can you give me some of the oysters in your hand?" Li Huang ate some bread and canned bacon, and looked at the fresh oysters in Phillips' hand.

"no……"

Li Huang reached out and took an oyster. He pried open the shell skillfully and stuffed the meat into his mouth. The American military's canned corned beef didn't taste very good, so Li Huang still preferred fresh seafood.

"Ah, that's perfect! It would be great if Jules was on this ship too..."

"Excuse me, Li, why do you always mention Jules every time you eat oysters?" Phillips was puzzled.

"Colonel, this guy is a master of oyster cooking. You don't know that I became interested in oysters because of Jules." Li Huang said every word truthfully. "By the way, are we there yet? I've almost forgotten what land looks like."

"It should arrive tomorrow..."

Sure enough, on the afternoon of the next day, they landed on the European continent, traveling all the way by trucks, cars, and troop carriers. After several days, they finally arrived at the front line of the entire battlefield.

"Colonel Phillips, Corporal Carter, welcome, this is..."

"This is Corporal Li Huang. Okay, Baker, let's talk about the battle first."

Baker's analysis made several people realize that the war situation here was actually very bad. The German army had deployed a lot of new equipment on the battlefield, which made the situation of the Allies very unfavorable. Fortunately, the country had recently increased military spending and a lot of new recruits had arrived, which temporarily stabilized the war situation of the US military.

"Recently, the German army has stepped up its attacks in the area where we are stationed. We are running out of personnel and ammunition. If your support had not arrived, we would have to retreat from here."

During their conversation, Li Huang learned that the German army was aggressively attacking this stronghold and seizing the roads near it. The Allied forces were now almost unable to hold on, and the fighting had been particularly intense in the last two days.

At lunch time, Li Huang swallowed the military camp lunch made of canned bacon and a bunch of messy paste with difficulty, and looked at Colonel Phillips opposite: "You want me to lead the new recruits to build roads?"

"Yes, Corporal, your strength test results are very good, which shows that you are fully capable of doing this job." Phillips said as he flipped through the documents in his hand.

"But……"

"There's nothing to worry about. Soldiers must obey orders! You fool, the road construction is in the rear, which can ensure your safety." Colonel Phillips's voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear it.

"..." Li Huang was helpless. Although Colonel Phillips had good intentions, but...

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The whole camp suddenly became chaotic. Colonel Phillips threw a rifle to Li Huang and said, "Boy, find a place to set up the rifle. Be careful."

Li Huang took the rifle and heard Baker giving orders: "Feilu, take your men to the machine gun position..."

"Jack! Go to the anti-aircraft guns!"

……

Li Huang lay behind a sandbag, looking at a hazy gray soldier in the distance, slowly holding his breath, and aiming his gun.

Bang! The gunshot rang out, and the soldier fell down.

There was a burst of gunfire above the camp. The Meng soldiers who reacted quickly poured hateful bullets at the German army. Machine guns spit out tongues of fire, licking the lives of German soldiers. Explosions filled every corner of the battlefield. Trees died, grass burned, and the soldiers' blood irrigated the muddy ground.

Suddenly, the sound of engines came from the dim sky, and bombers flew across the sky like predatory vultures, circling in the anti-aircraft gun fire.

"Damn it! Three Stukas! Robert, Bart, get on the anti-aircraft guns! Shoot them down for me!"

"Bang, bang, bang!" The anti-aircraft guns spit out shells rhythmically, brushing past the Stuka bombers with the roars of American soldiers.

The Stuka driver pulled up high, circled, and narrowly avoided several anti-aircraft shells. He glanced at the smoke-filled battlefield and easily locked onto several anti-aircraft positions of American soldiers.

As the joystick was pulled, a Stuka began to dive towards the ground, and its machine gun poured out a large number of bullets, pulling out two ammunition chains filled with the breath of death.

A metal storm of bullets smashed down, accompanied by incendiary bombs and explosive bombs.

"Bart!"

An incendiary bomb landed squarely on an anti-aircraft gun, turning the soldiers on it into human torches. At this moment, two other Stukas dived together, sprinkling death to the ground.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Black shells fell on the camp, black shrapnel, orange-red flames, bright red blood, and yellow-brown soil, forming a hell on earth.

The Stuka turned a circle in the air, ready to enter the battlefield again after the smoke cleared.

The roar of the explosion was deafening, and Li Huang's ears were left with only a buzzing sound. His physical fitness was still too poor, and his practice of the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra" was still too low.

Gunshots were heard every moment. Li Huang crawled out of the dust and shook off the dirt and flesh on his body.

"The enemy has broken through the line!"

The Germans began to pour in from the machine gun position not far away. The soldier named Feru was half lying on the heavy machine gun. The Germans kicked his broken body away and began to pour into the entire American position...
