Chapter 333 You Are a Legend

Rogers is very familiar with the Political Propaganda Department of the US military. Because for quite a long time after the success of the super soldier project.

Captain Rogers, as a super soldier of the US military, did not devote himself to the battlefield as a soldier. Instead, he launched various tours throughout the United States.

In those times in the 1930s. Watching the circus is still one of the most important forms of entertainment for people. At that time, there were not as many ways of entertainment as there are now.

A successful product as a super soldier. Captain Rogers has superhuman strength. If all the strength in his body is squeezed out, he can have about a ton of strength.

It also has super high flexibility and physical coordination. And the circus he is in, Rogers is the biggest star. Every time he tours in a place, there will be countless people flocking to it.

They want to see what it's like to be the strongest and most flexible man in the world. In fact, the earliest Captain America uniform was born in the circus period.

At that time, that suit did not have any design for combat. It's just a costume that Rogers can use when he can perform with the ballerinas in the circus.

And the name Captain America was first called from this circus. Because there was a short play in the circus at that time.

The general content of the story is a funny show in which a group of American soldiers beat up German and Japanese Axis soldiers. And the leader of that group of American soldiers was Rogers.

Rogers has a famous line in the play. "I will punish you on behalf of the United States!" So the name of Captain America began to spread from this place, and it has not changed until now.

Um? You ask why the super soldier success story, Steve Rogers, goes to the circus?

ah! You are still too young to understand the true meaning of war.

Beginning in mid-1941, the European Western Front has entered a state of total defeat. The Allied countries in Europe have entered a state of exhaustion, completely relying on the will of the people.

And Germany also began to attack like the Soviet Union on the Eastern Front. Germany at that time looked unstoppable. It is only a matter of time before the world is unified.

When the United States introduced the Wartime Arms Lend-Lease Act, then President Roosevelt knew very well that if the allies on the European front did not provide certain support, then Europe would be completely shrouded in the shadow of the Iron Cross.

However, isolationism and conservatives were rampant in the United States at that time. These people always feel that the war will have nothing to do with the United States, and they can live in the North American continent forever.

These people blocked the passage of the Soldier Arms Lend-Lease Act, thinking that it would lead to fire.

To change this isolationist attitude within the country, the U.S. Military Political Propaganda Department has been given a major political propaganda job.

They need to publicize the importance of resistance to the Axis powers. In the same year, the super soldier project, which was successfully tested, was selected by the military.

At that time, all the military believed that if Steve Rogers entered the battlefield. Then the Allies just got a super soldier. If such soldiers cannot be used on a large scale, they will not be able to fundamentally change the situation of the war.

And if Rogers is used as a signboard of the US military, it is similar to the popular kanban girl. Then Captain Rogers has an excellent appearance and a super strong physique. These are enough to attract most young people.

In today's more popular terms, the Political Propaganda Department of the US military hopes to create an idol effect.

Of course, everyone underestimated the power of a super soldier after entering the battlefield, and underestimated the appeal that Steve Rogers would have in the future.

So Rogers back then was like the top card in the circus, following the political propaganda department to perform around, promoting performances such as "America Needs You".

So before stepping on the battlefield, Steve Rogers has actually made his debut as a star. Even in 1941, the military and Hollywood co-produced a twenty-eight-minute film starring Steve Rogers.

The content is to call on young people to serve as volunteers to fight against the Japanese on the Western Front in Europe.

Others are calling on the people to donate money and goods to support the European battlefield and the war refugees who have run out of fuel.

Rogers did a lot of things like this back then. But the whole year of political propaganda work in 1941 did not have fond memories for Rogers.

He prefers to go head-to-head with the enemy on the battlefield, or to match wits with the Hydra behind enemy lines.

Instead of standing in the spotlight and being manipulated like a clown. Make exaggerated expressions, pose exaggerated movements, and finally show the audience a smile showing eight teeth.

It can be said that this past event is simply a dark history that Captain Rogers does not want to recall.

"I don't like the military's political propaganda department. In every sense." Rogers said in a dry tone, breaking away from his own memories.

"I don't like it when they use my name for anything, in every sense of the word."

Li Jie clapped his palms and made a snapping sound. "Then it's easy to handle. In this way, I don't think you, captain, want your copyright to still be in the hands of the military."

"To be honest, the military expenditure of the US military is a bit outrageous. But they are still using your name to make money, and they have established the Captain America Operations Association."

"Although I hate to say it, this operation can bring more than one billion or even two billion dollars in additional income to the US military every year. And this income is neither reported nor disclosed."

"No one knows where the money will end up. It's inappropriate to say something. If the US military holds this money, you might as well use it to support S.H.I.E.L.D."

"I heard that your finances are very difficult recently? I don't think your bureau chief will refuse an extra two billion dollars in income every year." Li Jie said with a smile.

"I thought you said so much because you wanted to sign my copyright." Rogers looked at Li Jie's expression and said in surprise.

"Of course, I naturally want to sign your copyright. But I don't want to sign Captain America." Li Jie looked at Rogers with a very serious look.

"I want to sign you. The title of Captain America can go to anyone, but you are you."

"You are the one and only legend, the irreplaceable Steve Rogers."
