Marvel's Superman

"General, let's move forward a bit. When was the Axis at a distinct disadvantage? Was it the defeat in North Africa, the landing of more than 2 million Allied troops in Normandy? Or was it the disastrous defeat on the Eastern Front?"

Baron Strucker narrowed his eyes. After receiving some resources from Hydra, he specially launched intelligence forces and reviewed the whole World War II situation.

​​

The leader of Hydra was a descendant of Junker nobility - a unique product of Prussia.

Junker means 'young nobleman' or 'young lord' in German.

Initially, it referred to the sons of the nobility without the title of knight, but later it referred to the Prussian nobility and the land in general.

Unlike the traditional class, the 'Junkers' have made military service the highest calling and an honorable tradition for the men in their family.

The eldest son's inheritance system; that is, the title and land were all inherited by the eldest son.

To gain the title under military service, other children could only work hard, actively exercise various military skills, and strive to establish military service.

The existence of the Junker aristocracy had something to do with Germany's ability to launch the Second World War twenty years after the end of the First World War.

They are all well-educated young elites with advanced military qualities and martial blood flowing through their veins.

At the peak of the war, there was one soldier for every twenty-eight adult Germans.

Compared with the military powers in the same period, there were 70 in France, more than 80 in Britain, and 130 in Russia, called the 'battle nation.'

It can be seen that Germany provoked the world war twice in a row and coveted the mighty throne of the European overlord, wasn't blind arrogance without any reason.

But Strucker, a Junker nobleman, joined the SS on his own initiative and became a close friend of the Führer -- most Prussian officers weren't considered staunch supporters of the Führer; they despised the secret police and the Gestapo. They thought them to be degrading to the military and lapdogs of the powerful.

But Strucker didn't give a damn about the honor of a soldier or the code of nobility.

He worshiped power and agreed with the extreme theory of 'Aryans were the perfect race.'

Therefore, he actively threw himself into the arms of the Third Reich and became the leader of Hydra.

"Let me tell you how the Third Reich collapsed, General. Even though the Allied attack was fierce, with Red Skull's energy weapons and the Valkyrie missiles, things were frankly far from being the worst."

Baron Strucker, who had a professional military education, touched his own shiny bald head and spoke with a grave face: "The first domino fell at the fall of Rome. The Italians are indeed foolish allies, they only held us back, but they were still somewhat useful. As a result, the failure of Italy made the 'Allied Superman' story a legend. It resounded all over the world, inspired the frontline soldiers of the Allied forces, and made more and more people see the light of victory."

"The second piece was the base in Klausenburg. The first time Hydra suffered such a defeat, even Red Skull had to flee in disarray and leaked the Valkyrie project. You know, before this, when the Allied forces faced our giant tanks and energy weapons, they simply couldn't lift the will to fight. Luke Cavill changed all this."

"The total defeat of Red Skull and the destruction of Hydra's headquarters proved that the Allied Superman was strong enough to influence the course of the war."

"The Third Reich always thought that the Allies were exaggerating the facts and over-promoting, making the soldiers at the front lines charge even more bravely."

"But this isn't the case. General, think back carefully. You sent Julian that was a 'tank-class' to track down the female defector spy. Who saved her and made you lose a loyal soldier?"

General Sankt was deep in thought. He still had some difficulty in believing that the Allied Supermen could threaten the Third Reich.

He's like an inventor of a new weapon who thinks that his product is the best and unbeatable.

So, does General Sankt, who is steadfast in his belief that the Aryan Supermen possesses a power that no creature can resist right now.

This iron-clad truth had been tested by hundreds of thousands of defeated Soviet troops.

Rifles, artillery, tanks, bombers ...

Human-made conventional weapons can't hurt the 'battleship-class'!

Even if there were powerful weaponry, such as naval cannons, it doesn't ensure an accurate hit.

Unless a new weapon with comprehensive coverage and fast shock wave diffusion is born, the 'battleship-class' could be taken literally. They are all humanoid battleships that could move quickly, have high maneuverability, and know-how to think for themselves and judge the situation.

"Baron, even if everything is as you said, the young Brigadier General of the Allied Forces is the greatest threat to the empire -- but he's only one person."

After a long silence, General Sankt silently raised Luke's danger level by two notches.

However, he still wasn't convinced by Baron Strucker and still had complete confidence in the three 'battleship-classes.'

"That's the key! The Allies only have one Superman, and we have three! And hundreds of 'tank-classes'!"

Baron Strucker slapped the palm of his hand and excitedly said, "So, we have a chance to wipe away this threat in advance!"

"You mean--"

General Sankt reacted with a frown, "Design a trap to ambush the Allied Superman?"

"That's right! Try to kill Luke Cavill before the Allies make another Superman, and then put the three 'battleship-class' in London and raid the Allied headquarters!"

"the Allied Superman could do it, so can we! Capture London, raid New York, and send the opponents and resistors to hell!"

Baron Strucker was excited and seemed to have seen the prospect of victory. He shouted, "At that time, no one could stop the empire!"

"But ... Guderian said that the 'battleship-class' is an important strategic weapon, and we cannot afford any loss."

General Sankt was hesitant. In the end, he isn't a politician or a military leader and usually stays in the laboratory, buried in all kinds of boring and tedious scientific books.

It was only when he sat in the 'Führer' position that he felt he still lacked the ability.

Fortunately, he is good at listening to opinions and isn't as complacent as his predecessor.

No matter Guderian or Baron Strucker, what they said seemed to be reasonable.

"You misunderstood my meaning. The Empire's war plan, of course, is still under Guderian's plan, but we can make some changes in the details."

A glint passed through Baron Strucker's eyes as he smiled and said, "General, it's all for the empire!"

"Let me think about it again."

General Sankt stared at the map on the wall and saw the gradually falling Empire. His heart was a little shaken.
