Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 114: Promoted

Crete Island.

"What do you mean you sent the report to London?" Alexander asked the communications in charge.

"Sir, you ordered to send it to the high command," the soldier replied.

"Yes, I meant the immediate higher command. Which is in Egypt, just across the sea. Anyway, did they send any reply?"

"Yes, sir. Signed by Mr. Churchill himself. They have deployed heavy navy to be placed here. The Americans have also sent their ships for you."

"Alright, You men will soon be going home I guess," Alexander said, making the soldiers grin.

...

Hitler's Cottage, Alps

"You bloody swine. I'll kill you. I'll kill you all worthless incompetent numbskulls. They are just 30,000 fu*king men. How do you lose 140,000 men in a single week? Tell me you fagot" Hitler cursed.

"Sir, please don't attack me personally. I might like men but that doesn't make me any less of a man than anyone else." Keitel sternly replied.

"How dare you talk to me like that, I'll get you executed for treason." Hitler screeched.

"Then I'll tell the world that you have Herpes and AIDS." Keitel quickly retorted.

"You... What?" Hitler looked confused.

"The girl you had fun with last Sunday had Herpes and AIDS. Now tell me, do you want to say something about me?" Keitel said in a dangerous tone.

"WHAT? HOW DARE YOU. YOU BLOODY SWINE..."

"OK, so you still want to threaten me? Alright, I'll tell the world." Keitel started to walk away.

"Wait, wait. I'll forget that this conversation ever happened. But you must get a doctor to secretly check me up." Hitler voiced, sounding too scared.

"Yes, sir. I'll get it all done." Keitel replied and walked away. He was just bluffing with Hitler. The girl didn't have AIDS. She just had Herpes. But he'll surely use this opportunity to his advantage.

...

Within a week, the whole island of Crete was swarming with soldiers. Around the Island, many warships were stationed.

The island was fortified so that no german attack could occur. They also made the island a point of further attack in Greece.

He was outside his bunkers, waiting for his ride.

*Beep Beep*

A jeep stopped with a skid in front of him and Howard jumped out of it. He quickly ran and hugged Alexander.

"Haha, pops ain't dead yet," he exclaimed.

"You cracked it ha? Good job." Alexander patted his back.

"Sir," another voice came.

"Hahaha... Steve, look at you. Tall and handsome. Good, but you're still not as tall as me" Alexander gave him a hug.

"How are things back at home?" Alexander asked.

"Well, the president is going nuts and Colonel Phillips is cursing about his workload every day," Howard spoke.

"Haha... Then let's go back home." He jumped into the jeep.

...

1 month later,

White House

"Goddammit, I thought you were dead. Now, look at the mess you've made. Though it was a good mess, haha... You really handed it to them nazis." Roosevelt happily walked up to Alexander and gave him a brotherly hug.

"Roosy my boy, back on the legs, ha" Alexander spoke.

"You should have seen the faces when I walked into Congress and announced the Lend-lease bill. By the way, I just received amazing news from London. By the recommendation of the prime minister and many other high-level people, they have decided to award you another Victoria Cross and Knight Grand Cross. You'll be Sir Alexander from now on. Haha." Roosevelt happily announced. Having his legs back really made the guy cheerful.

"Don't tell me I'll have to go and kneel before the King," Alexander protested.

"Ah... You'll have to. He(King George VI) needs to do that Sword tapping thing to make you a knight. Also, the congress has decided to honor you with another Medal of Honour and a double promotion. You are a full 4-star general Alex. Newspapers are going to be after you like dogs in heat. Prepare something good, haha" he threw a file toward him to sign.

Alexander looked into it and they were his promotion papers. ~Damn, I didn't even need to ask. I guess after the war ends I'll try to become a 6-star general. Something that is yet to happen. George Washington was posthumously promoted to General of the Armies of the United States so that no one ever outranked him in 1976. Currently, the highest-ranking man was General John J. Pershing for his World War 1 success. He still wore 4 stars as the 5-star general wasn't a thing yet. But his 4 stars were golden in color.~

"Well, am I being reassigned?" Alexander asked.

"Yes, a full general can't just be heading a department. You will still be the chairman of the SSR, but Colonel Phillips will be the new director. You, on the other hand, will be preparing for war. I'm afraid we'll soon have to enter the stage." Roosevelt contemplated.

*Knock Knock*

"Come in"

A military officer entered. He saluted both; behind him was Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson.

"Sir, I have something of great importance to discuss," Henry spoke.

"Say it then." Roosevelt gestured.

"Sir I have received intel that there is a high probability that if the Japanese attack, then they'll target Pearl Harbour. I ask you to order Lieutenant General Walter Short and Admiral Kimmel to stay prepared." He advised.

~Woah, I nearly forgot about this.~ Alexander suddenly remembered.

"Mr. President, if it's not much, I'd like you to assign me to the Hawaiian command. I'll make sure everything's good." Alexander said, looking into Roosevelt's eyes.

"Henry, you may go." He sent his secretary away.

"Alex, what's the matter? You sound like they really are going to attack"

"I am 90% sure that they will attack. The current commander there is not competent enough to manage things. If I'm there then we might be able to fight the attack." Alexander stated.

"Very well, you'll get your new orders soon. Good luck"

...

It had been 3 months since he took over the command over Pearl Harbor. He had fortified the entire base with anti-aircraft guns. They were everywhere, on buildings, ships, etc. He had secretly sent all the planes to another airstrip in the mountains and put dummies out in the open.

Alexander had told Howard to start making as many fighting planes as he could as he knew the war was close. So the U.S Airforce had a steady supply of new and better planes.

7 December 1941. It was morning and all the people were secretly on alert.

*SIRENS*

As soon as the air raid sirens sounded, everyone took their positions. The Japanese had sent nearly 400 planes and Alexander had 600.

Soon the sound of heavy machine guns resounded in the base. Anywhere you see you would find an anti-aircraft gun firing. The air support had also come in and started gunning down the planes.

Alexander was wide in the open, standing in the middle of the airfield with sunglasses on, a cigar in mouth, and shooting his revolver. Every bullet he fired downed a plane.

He alone brought down dozens of planes in seconds. Some soldiers were dumbfounded by the scene and forgot what they were doing.

"Focus, you fools. Eyes on target," Alexander reprimanded.

Dobby stood beside Alexander with his Kar 98 and shot down planes that were too far away. The giant elf was also promoted to Brigadier General now.

The whole ordeal went on for 4 hours before finally ending. He conducted a thorough inspection to prepare a report. He was happy to keep up his zero death record, mostly due to his magic helping the people.

There were many casualties but no deaths. Though he did lose some planes, and ships due to crashing planes. But all in all, it was a very successful defensive fight.

That night they all ate and drank happily. Making up new stories about General Alexander the Invincible.

...

The next day,

Japan, Tokyo.

"How can a surprise attack cause zero casualties? I gave you 392 planes and this is the result? You should commit seppuku," Japanese general Hideki Tojo shouted at the commander responsible for coordinating the Pearl Harbor attack.

"What am I supposed to tell the emperor now?" Tojo said.

~huh... The emperor isn't even interested in the war. It's your ambition that has brought war to Japan.~ the commander cursed under his breath.

"Get out," Tojo shouted in rage.

"We are at war with America now. At least that message is clear," he said to himself.

...

December 8, 1941

Declaration of state of war with Japan happened. The declaration was quickly brought to a vote and passed. The vote was 82–0 in the Senate and 388–1 in the House. Jeannette Rankin, a woman's rights activist was the only vote against it.

Then 3 days later, a similar declaration was made against Germany and Italy.

At that moment, Alexander was already on a ship to London. from there he'd lead the war effort in Europe.
