American comics: The Savior Who Started with Vampires

Chapter 64 Major Rank

Boom boom boom!

Clumps of dirt, blown away by the bombs, fell on Lin Jue, along with countless pieces of sand and gravel.

Lin Jue finally realized why Germany was so fierce during World War II, fighting against many enemies single-handedly, and was able to swiftly destroy Poland and defeat France.

The power of that artillery fire was incredible; if he weren't currently on the front lines, he would probably have been blown to the ground again!

The American soldier huddled on the earthen bed next to him was trembling, looking like he had just survived a disaster. When he saw Lin Jue crawling out of the mud and rubble, he couldn't help but give him a thumbs up, repeatedly saying, "Brother, you're really brave."

bah bah bah!

Spitting out all the dirt from his mouth, Lin Jue looked at himself and breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully he didn't have to be sent to the hospital again.

He suddenly emerged from the pit, pulled out a grenade he always carried, and with a powerful thrust of his hand, the grenade flew past in a blur, heading straight for the enemy lines.

Thanks to Lin Jue's powerful arm strength, the grenade was accurately thrown to the enemy camp nearly a kilometer away.

With a loud bang, Lin Jue could clearly see his grenade from his perspective, which seemed to have instantly blown up three German soldiers passing by.

Phew, we're even!

In the days that followed, Lin Jue moved constantly across the battlefield. With his extraordinary senses and slightly unusual agility, he unconsciously led the American troops to break through the first line of defense. Soon he came into the sights of the military's high command.

In the command camp, American officers stared at the footage taken by a war correspondent. A nimble American soldier swiftly traversed trench after trench, advancing to the first German line. With his incredibly cool close-quarters combat, he quickly killed 16 German soldiers who gathered around him.

This instantly threw the German troops on the first line into disarray, giving the American forces an opportunity to reverse their decline. More and more American troops followed behind, breaking through the German front lines in one fell swoop.

"Whose soldiers are these? They're so fierce!"

A burly U.S. military officer couldn't help but exclaim in admiration; judging from his uniform, he was a U.S. Army lieutenant colonel.

"Haha! I've already ordered someone to bring him here. We have a bunker raid coming up, and we need a highly agile and combat-savvy soldier!"

The old man, standing among all the officers, spoke in a deep voice.

Soon, under the expectant gazes of all the American officers, the tent of the command battalion was opened, and Lin Jue, with his handsome face and upright figure, quickly walked into the camp.

After striking a perfect military pose, Lin Jue was pulled among the non-commissioned officers amidst the praise of the officers.

"Dude, you're amazing!"

"This is the first time I've seen such amazing soldiers! Can you teach me those cool moves?"

"I've always been strict with the military, but this is the first time I've admired a soldier!"

Hearing the praise around him, Lin Jue pretended to be flattered, while inwardly praising his own enlightenment.

This was Lin Jue's plan: to infiltrate the upper echelons of the US military in order to prepare for what was to come. It was also a desperate measure for him to make contact with Captain America.

God knows, during this time, he searched the entire battlefield but couldn't find that thin figure. Because he had watched the TV series a long time ago, he only knew a vague plot.

If he can't get in touch with the protagonist and can't develop the main storyline, then his return to the main world will be a long way off.

"Lin, in recognition of your outstanding contributions on the battlefield, you are awarded the title of Combat Hero and promoted three ranks to Major!"

Major General Pierd patted Lin Jue's shoulder hard, and Lin Jue's unmoving body made him secretly admire him.

"Thank you for your kind words, Your Excellency Pild!"

Lin Jue glanced at the old man's medals and quickly said.

"Well, Major Lin Jue, we didn't just call you here to award you a medal. There's a new mission for you. If you complete it, I can promote you to colonel, making you the fastest-rising officer in U.S. military history!"

Pierre stared at Lin Jue's face and said in a deep voice.

His words instantly astonished all the officers present, and a complex expression appeared on everyone's face, including admiration, covetousness, and schadenfreude!

However, unlike them, Lin Jue was secretly delighted. After all, in their eyes, he was just a soldier with skill, agility, and rich combat experience. Only he himself knew how much he was hiding.

With a single-handed salute, Lin Jue's face showed unwavering resolve: "I am willing to fight for a free America!"

"good!"

Major General Pierd looked excited and patted Lin Jue's shoulder hard again.

Upon arriving at the operations room, Pierd explained the entire operational plan to Lin Jue.

In short, the bunkers built by the German army made it difficult for the US forces to break through the defenses. These bunkers had small holes that could be used to place machine guns and fire indiscriminately. At this time, there were no tanks or armored vehicles, which meant that the US forces were always at a disadvantage in this line.

Even though Lin Jue had just successfully recovered the lost lines, they still stopped in front of the original German lines.

Lin Jue's objective was to break through the heavy fire lines under the cover of American soldiers and destroy the bunkers scattered throughout the German front lines.

This mission was virtually impossible for ordinary people; even with the cover of American soldiers, normal people would be attacked by German soldiers who would appear out of nowhere halfway through the mission.

Putting aside the German army's fierce firepower, even the American troops themselves would sometimes accidentally injure their own teammates. It can be said that Lin Jue not only had to guard against the German army in front of him, but also had to be wary of his teammates' backstabbing.

Lin Jue's main task was to destroy at least five bunkers at the front, which was practically impossible.

Long before the Germans broke through the American defenses, they had organized suicide squads, but they were all blown to bits halfway there.

The series of defeats left all the U.S. Army sergeants unable to even find reserve personnel for the suicide squad.

Not a single soldier who had experienced German firepower on the front lines dared to take on the mission again.

Lin Jue's extraordinary skills successfully caught the attention of the American officers who were almost at their wits' end.

Knowing the plan, Lin Jue couldn't help but secretly click his tongue in amazement. It was probably impossible to complete the mission without getting hurt. He would even have to deliberately cause some injuries.

Otherwise, if someone performs too exceptionally well, he may not only receive praise and commendation, but also fear and suspicion.

"If you can complete this mission, without hesitation, you will be the most outstanding soldier in this battle. You will truly be awarded the title of America's First Combat Hero, and at the same time, you will be promoted to colonel, becoming the fastest-rising non-commissioned officer in history!"

Pild said in a serious voice.

With his extensive battlefield experience, he knew exactly what this meant: courage, character, and skill were all indispensable. Yet, the seemingly ordinary Asian youth in front of him accepted his mission without hesitation.

Even though he was prepared to be rejected, Lin Jue still had a 'firm' expression and accepted the seemingly impossible task with a look of grim determination. It was precisely because of this that he appreciated Lin Jue even more!
