Chapter 2212: Battle of Two Cities! (Fifty-Four)

Chapter 2186 Battle of Two Cities! (Fifty-four)

Who is the mastermind behind the scenes?

This question has always been lingering in Batman's mind, and when the time has exceeded half an hour, the alert program that Batman set for himself finally started.

Once a mastermind has not revealed his tracks in Batman's half-hour reasoning, it means that he must be very difficult to deal with, and it also means that Batman must go all out.

He and the Joker really understand each other. Batman thought that the Joker might also realize that someone has calculated all of them and used all of them as guns to achieve his own goals.

So what is the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes?

Who will benefit from this war?

To explore this issue, we have to carefully analyze the war that is happening in the new city now.

But the war broke out too suddenly, and Batman did not have much information in his hands. He had to go deep into the front line to investigate. Fortunately, Batman had also participated in the war and had sufficient weapons and equipment, so it was not a problem for him to shuttle between the bases of warlords of all sizes.

He first came to several larger bases in Queens, followed the edge of their base to the line of fire, and witnessed a small war of about 200 people.

This was a squadron of more than 70 people attacking a street with twice as many defenders as them. A group of people skillfully threw weapons into the street, cross-fired to cover the attack, frontal attack, flank sneak attack, frontal feint attack, flank burst.

Batman was surprised by this, because he thought he would see a battle of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix. Even now, the armies of most countries are fighting bad wars, and their tactics and strategies remain at the level of the early stage of World War II.

The attackers first carried out a round of bombing, rushed forward with guns, and covered by firepower from the back. The defenders hid in the trenches. When charging, a group of people shot, and a group of people shot almost finished, and then launched a counterattack.

Even in some continents with excellent matching mechanisms, those who can complete the above process are already elite troops among elite troops.

But what is now presented to Batman is a street battle with relatively sophisticated tactical ideas. Although the reaction is still a little slow at times, it can be seen that the command of the attacker is quite professional, the tactical thinking is also very clear, and they know how to cleverly use the side firepower to suppress.

The command of the defender is not much less, and the timing of point shooting and explosive throwing is quite accurate. It can even counter-suppress the charging troops in the street battle, which is relatively difficult.

And although it can be seen that the quality of the soldiers is uneven, each two-person team has a tactical action that is quite proficient. With the old leading the new, the overall quality is quite a bit of veterans.

Batman found something wrong when he watched it. Are these citizens of New York and Gotham? I'm afraid that all the retired instructors of the Marine Corps have been invited here?

This is not a tactical quality that ordinary people can show. If the people of New York and Gotham all have this tactical level, what crime can Batman fight? Millions of elite veterans trampled from the East Coast to the West Coast, turning all of America into Gotham, and there would be no Gotham.

Batman felt that he might be too lucky. He came across a gathering area of ​​retired soldiers as soon as he came out. Although it was not a loss to witness the wonderful battle process, he was here to investigate war intelligence this time, so he had to be more practical.

So he changed his base again, and saw another wonderful battle for positions, followed by the escort and raid of material vehicles, the protection and assassination of important figures, and the attack and defense of important strongholds. It can be said that every scene was wonderful.

After wandering around the entire Queens area, Batman realized a problem-the people who were fighting were not ordinary people.

Even though the people in New York and Gotham were full of martial virtues and conducted actual combat exercises every three days on average, they had not received formal military training. They were just ordinary people.

Whether or not they have undergone long-term formal military training is an important criterion for judging soldiers and ordinary people. Don't underestimate the cumbersome rules and heavy training in the army. The more professional and formal, the farther the level of combat effectiveness is from ordinary people.

Even when soldiers fight against soldiers, there is a record of ten people capturing thousands of people. When soldiers fight against ordinary people, the casualty ratio of 1:1000 is not exaggerated at all.

It is not that ordinary people do not have courage and quality, but the battlefield is another world after all. Without strong military literacy, ordinary people cannot even last a minute in positional warfare.

But those who fought back and forth that Batman saw were obviously the foundation of elite troops. They not only received professional military training, but they may even be professional soldiers.

Going deeper into the front line, Batman found more suspicious signs. Many houses here looked like they were blown up, but if you look closely, the important items inside were gone.

And they were not looted after the house was destroyed, but they were taken away before the house was blown up and burned, and they were taken away in an orderly manner, not robbed.

Only the owner of the house can do this. If the owner of the house is gone, who are those people who are defending their homes outside?

After Batman's initial investigation, he found that the most densely populated streets in Queens were all like this. It was obvious that someone had notified them in advance to evacuate in an orderly manner. The war broke out after most people evacuated.

Batman sneaked into several surrounding bases, memorized the appearance of each soldier, and did mental calculations, and found that the population did not match at all.

This large area should have at least 150,000 permanent residents. Now there are less than 30,000 people in the more than 70 bases of all sizes. This number does not match at all?

Batman went to the Transportation Management Bureau to check the driver's license information, and took the residents' driver's license photos to the bases to check one by one.

Indeed, many soldiers are local residents, accounting for about half of the number. Among the 30,000 people, 15,000 are local residents, which means that there are still 15,000 people who don't know where they came from. Who are these people?

Batman searched the Gotham Police Department and the New York Archives Administration, and he went through all the permanent population survey reports. He used the Batcomputer to check the identity information one by one. After checking over and over again for a whole night, Batman finally found some clues.

The clue appeared in a man named Tucci. Of course, this is not his real name. His real name is Brak Tansandbis, an international fugitive wanted by the FBI. His nationality is German and he has committed six murders in the United States.

And he also has a famous code name - Hydra Killer.

Or it can be said that this is not his code name, but his profession. The FBI database shows that this guy belongs to the terrorist organization Hydra. For many years, he has shot celebrities around the world for Hydra, causing panic.

Batman didn't know what Hydra was before, but he conducted a simple investigation and roughly figured out the origin of Hydra and their nature on another earth.

What Batman found was the record of this man named Brak who recently entered the United States under the alias of Tucci.

Of course, it is not new for fugitives to change their identities and make a comeback. What is new is that this guy does not hold a fake identity, but a completely new one.

It is not that he killed a man named Tucci and disguised himself as him, nor did he forge a passport. The photo on his passport is his personal information and is completely true. At least Batman can't find any flaws.

In other words, the US Immigration Bureau probably also has Hydra, which made a brand new passport for him.

And obviously this man is not an exception. After discovering this strangeness, Batman began to use the computer to compare faces.

Two hours later, the shocking result appeared. Among the bases he visited, half of the middle-level commanders in the bases were terrorists who were wanted internationally and belonged to the terrorist organization Hydra.

Looking at the origin of Hydra, Batman understood something, and the source of the brand-new German equipment that appeared in the pictures taken by street cameras was also explained.

This is a group of NAZI remnants.

Then Batman began to wonder, who is the other group of people who fought with this group of people? Could it be that the Soviet Union has resurrected and wants to beat up the mustache again?

Batman had no time to think about these messes as he checked. His face began to become more and more solemn, because he found that the Germans were fighting back and forth with the Court of Owls.

Yes, this was actually a war between Hydra and the Court of Owls. Although many belligerent civilians participated in it, it was essentially a war between Hydra, which had been wandering around for half a century, and wanted to turn Gotham into its permanent base, while the Owls were unwilling to give up their homes.

Batman was simply shocked.

In addition to providing a venue, the mastermind behind the scenes brought their own manpower, dry food and equipment, and devoted themselves to the noble cause of fighting crime with a high enthusiasm that made Batman look at them.

Don't worry about whether they are also criminals, just say whether the efficiency of fighting crime is high or not?

How many superheroes can beat the kill achieved by a main gun of a main battle tank?

At the same time, his mood became a little subtle.

Some people say that there is no just war in this world, and Batman agrees with this, but the only time this theory doesn't make sense is when it's a dog-eat-dog situation.

If you let them fight, it seems that Batman is useless. He came all the way here, interrogated Robin with great vigor, and caught the Joker to ask for clues, but in the end he did nothing, which somewhat lost his identity as a superhero.

But if you don't let them fight, Batman always feels like he is at a disadvantage.

He didn't forget that when Gotham flew into the sky, a huge maze of skulls was lifted up. Batman is not stupid. Who is the Court of Owls targeting after so much effort to build such a large maze for so long?

The terrorist organization called Hydra is obviously also guilty of numerous crimes, and the Court of Owls is just for power and profit. These Germans are real NAZI swastika flags, and their bloodline may be purer than the mustache.

The two sides are fighting together. Isn't it a contribution to world peace if we fight for one more second?

Then doesn't it mean that if I delay for one more second, I will maintain world peace with much higher efficiency than before?

Batman has to think carefully about how to make the two sides reach a ceasefire.

Considering the dangers of the warring parties, at least 8,000 main plans must be prepared first, and then 5 sub-plans for each main plan, and then 26 feasible response plans in the branch lines under the sub-plans.

No, it's not the time yet, Batman thought. Maintaining world peace is important, but Dick's French homework is also an important factor in maintaining family harmony and stability. He has to check it carefully.

Just as Batman walked upstairs and came to the lobby of Wayne Manor, he suddenly saw that the portal he set up under the sky island lit up.

It was Darkseid's army that rushed out.

Just as he rushed out, he fell down.

Now he has to go to Tim's reading club, Batman thought.

I slept after taking the medicine. Sorry for being late.
