Chapter 299 War Machine
Seeing that James Lord was not wearing the military uniform with the silver eagle epaulettes, the first thought that came to Greer's mind was 'Stark really pulled him over'. Ask Rhodes to 'help'.
But after mentioning it once, there was no more. Even Stark hadn't been to this base for two months. Greer felt that the war machine was probably blown away by his wings.Stark solved the crisis of palladium poisoning in advance, so he didn't deliberately let Rhodes take away a steel suit, and it was even more impossible to fight side by side with Stark, destroy the whip, win honors, get medals and a series of things happened.
If this opportunity is lost, Rhodes naturally has no chance to become a war machine. In the original book, Mark2 was handed over to the military by Stark through Rhodes, making Rhodes the driver of Mark2. Therefore, War Machine is for the military. party service.
But the current Avengers Alliance was initiated by Stark, a completely non-governmental organization. If Rhodes came, unless he handed over the steel suit to the military, otherwise Rhodes would only be able to fight for him if he left the military and became a free agent. Let's serve this NGO.
One is a member of a non-governmental organization, and the other is an Air Force colonel and the Minister of Arms Department, who are likely to become generals in the future. It is clear at a glance which one is more promising and powerful.
Um?Wait
Greer suddenly felt something was wrong. Rhodes was clearly an air force colonel, but he served as the director of the Army Weapons Development Department. Dud and Stark have a great personal relationship, the kind you could get on a plane with a bunch of pole-dancing stewardesses.
In this case, the position of Minister of Army Development was probably not appointed because of Rhodes' ability, but because of his relationship with Stark.However, Stark announced the disbandment of the weapon development department of Stark Industries the year before last, and would no longer provide any weapons to the army. He also strongly rejected the military's request for steel suits, and the relationship with the military was very stiff.
This can be seen from the hearing of the steel suit initiated by Congressman Stern last year. The military not only had several generals sign, but also sent Rhodes to the hearing site to publish a statement. It is unknown whether Rhodes wrote it or Others gave him the so-called Iron Suit report.
The content in it is very unfavorable to Stark. If Stark hadn’t hacked the network at the scene and played a lot of failure cases of other people’s development of the steel suit, it would be impossible to get out so easily, and even engage in Senator Destern swore.
From this, it can be seen that the relationship between the military and Stark is so bad that it has reached the point of making things worse. If Stark was kidnapped, this hearing would not be possible at all. The military and the Pentagon alone Will veto the hearing, let alone send someone to speak ill.
Stark, who doesn't produce weapons, has become so unimportant, and Rhodes, the middleman, is even more unimportant.Could it be that he didn't do well in the army, that's why he was planning to join the Avengers. After all, the steel suit is quite attractive.
When Greer was thinking about it, Rhodes also saw Greer and Daisy walking in hand in hand, he just glanced at Greer, and stayed on the beautiful girl for a while, unless he had an idea, otherwise Who would stare at a rough guy.
What makes Rhodes wonder is why the girl wears shiny metal 'sleeves' on her arms. Is it popular now not to wear necklaces and bracelets, but to replace them with thick arm guards?Or is it that the arm is injured without plaster and replaced with a metal sleeve?
After admiring the beautiful young lady for a while, Rhodes noticed Greer next to him. He looked very familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere before. After thinking about it for a while, until Greer and Daisy walked to the room full of various drinks and wine Sitting down at the bar, Rhodes remembered that he had seen this child in Stark's villa a few months ago.
At that time, the entire villa was smashed to pieces, with pipes and lines everywhere. Stark canceled the plan that had been discussed for a long time. Stark became one of the heroes who rescued the contract, and he became more confident, and firmly rejected the military's request for the steel suit under the pretext of safety.
What makes Rhodes wonder is why there are two children here?Thinking of the young age of Spider-Man mentioned on the Internet, could it be that the boy is Spider-Man?In this case, it makes sense.Rhodes was about to go up to say hello to 'Spider-Man' when the automatic door on the right side of the two- to three-hundred-square-meter general hall opened, and Stark and Banner walked in talking and laughing.
"Hey, James," Stark greeted him enthusiastically, and said, "Nick is very efficient, and the Air Force released him so quickly."
Rhodes immediately understood why the Air Force suddenly approved the discharge report he had submitted for a month, and went through the discharge procedures as quickly as possible. The co-author was Stark looking for someone, nodded clearly, and said : "Tony, what can I do?"
In order to join the Avengers, he desperately gave up the rank of colonel in the army. Except for a retirement fee, he has nothing else. Now he is eager to know what Stark's arrangement for him is.
"Well, how about being my wingman?" Stark walked to the wine cabinet at the bar, took out a glass, lowered his head and poured wine into the quilt, and said, "The lead plane is mine, and I won't give it to you." , you can only fly as a wingman."
"What?" Rhodes didn't react at the first time. As a former air force colonel, he had flown fighter jets for nearly [-] hours. When he heard "leader, wingman", he first thought of fighter jets, and then realized that Stark It should be the armor of steel.
Could it be that Stark really wants to give him a set of steel battle suits? This idea makes Rhodes, a middle-aged man, a little excited. Every time he goes to Stark's villa, he sees the ganache in the basement of his villa. The steel battle suit in his heart, he couldn't help being amazed and envious. When Stark canceled the plan, he didn't have the opportunity to drive the Mark2. He regretted it for a long time. Now he wants to make up for this regret?
Stark picked up the wine glass, raised it to Rhodes who was sitting on the sofa, and said, "Come on, let me show you your steel suit."
With Stark's own acknowledgment, Rhodes hurriedly stood up, even throwing away the bags he was carrying, ignoring greetings to Greer and Banner, and hurriedly ran to Stark, fearing that if he was too late, he would let him Stark changed his mind.
Holding the black tea, Greer thought silently in his heart: "Is this the plot returning to the original track?"
