Start in Night City - #411 - Chapter 411
Others felt that they had just lost an army.
They still had several units, and those units were still resisting.
They can use the front line to deal with Arasaka’s troops and send some back to defend the capital.
If you choose to flee Washington, the capital, now, you will give up everything.
If the troops who were still fighting on the front line knew that they had escaped, they would not continue to fight, but would lay down their weapons and surrender.
Everything they have is here.
If you lose all your troops and lose the United States, the possibility of making a comeback in the future is basically infinitely close to zero.
Therefore, the final result discussed by the senior officials was to deploy more than 10,000 people from the troops that blocked Arasaka’s reinforcements and those that surrounded Arasaka’s vanguard troops, for a total of 30,000, and sent them back to defend the capital.
At the same time, there are many private military companies in the new United States besides military technology.
President Miles contacted them urgently.
Although I know that at this time, the opponent will definitely raise the price, but there is no way. As long as they can defeat the enemy, they will give President Miles as much as they want.
President Miles’s attitude satisfied the bosses of these private military companies in the new United States, and they all expressed their willingness to help this situation.
It’s a pity that the mercenaries under these private military companies are all performing tasks overseas, and there are not many of them in the new United States (because the security industry in the new United States is monopolized by military technology).
Therefore, military technology and the new United States have to survive a wave of offensives on their own before the mercenaries of private military companies can come over.
Fortunately, in addition to private military companies, there are also mercenaries in the New United States who work as teams or lone wolves like in Night City.
Normally, the company would never take a second look at such a mercenary, thinking that he is no different from an opera singer.
But at this time, there is no choice.
We can only cast a wide net.
These local mercenaries arrived very quickly, but there was just one problem.
These mercenaries have never experienced a real war. What they do most are street fights and gang wars. It is hard to say how effective they will be in a real battlefield.
I’m afraid that in the end, the ammunition of Shuguang Military Company will be consumed.
But even so, President Miles still chose to sign as much as he wanted.
Anyway, these mercenaries will be placed on the outermost defense line of the capital when the time comes, and they will consume as many people as they can from Dawn Military Company.
…
Su Xiao stood on the roof of the tank, looking into the distance with a telescope.
“That’s the capital of the new United States, the military
The headquarters of technology. “
V, who was next to the tank, sighed: “As long as we capture that place, military technology will be finished.”
Su Xiao put away the telescope and jumped off the tank: “A centipede is dead but not stiff. Military technology may not collapse immediately, but it will be greatly weakened. It is true.”
Most of the troops in New America are fighting with Arasaka.
There are only 30,000 people guarding the capital, of which 10,000 are mercenaries.
The number of mercenaries can be ignored. They have never seen a real war, and the possibility of collapse at the first touch is very high.
Lidya Su is not very worried about them.
He was thinking about what President Miles would do if he could capture the capital, Washington.
If she escapes, President Miles will most likely go to overseas military technology territories to try to make a comeback.
Of course, the military technology that has fallen in the country cannot make much trouble.
I can only say that I feel disgusted with Su Xiao and Arasaka Yorinobu.
And if President Miles chooses to surrender, military technology will immediately withdraw from the stage of history.
He and Arasaka Yorinobu are equal to having won most of the victory in smashing the world dominated by corporations.
Of course, popping champagne at halftime is also wrong.
Historically, the United States has been beaten to the capital, but in the end it won.
If they are blocked here, the situation may be reversed when the new United States slows down.
After all, Shuguang Military Company does not have as strong a foundation as Arasaka and Military Technology, and cannot fall into a consumption situation with Military Technology.
If the consumption is too great, then even if they win in the end, it will be a miserable victory, and they will be picked off by Arasaka, just like Britain after World War II.
Therefore, a quick solution is needed.
Take the capital, Washington, as quickly as possible without incurring too many casualties.
Chapter 348: All the free money is given to the poor, what a sin (4K)
That night, Dawn Military Company launched an attack.
Multiple rocket launchers and self-propelled artillery are sending all their firepower to New America’s positions.
Even without the use of flares, under such surging firepower, it was enough to illuminate the night as brightly as the day.
Fighters, warrior mechas, infantry, and tanks were dispatched in full force.
At this time, there is no point in playing anything else but relying on absolute strength.
New America also sent fighter jets to take off, but before they had time to climb up quickly, they rushed to the front of the Warrior mecha and used a magnetic field generator to start jamming it.
Under the influence of the strong magnetic field, although the new American fighter jets were not attracted because they were still a certain distance away, they were affected by the strong magnetic field.
Either they lose their balance and collide with each other, or they fall to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
Although this wave did not wipe out the entire air force of the new United States, it also lost most of the air force protecting the capital Washington.
The number of remaining fighter jets is completely incomparable to Dawn Military Company’s air force.
It didn’t take long for the air superiority to be firmly controlled by Dawn Military Company.
The fighter jets of Dawn Military Company, which had wiped out the new U.S. Air Force, roared over the capital Washington, pouring their firepower towards the enemy troops on the defensive line.
Terrifying bombs fell from the sky, setting off flames of death on the battlefield. It was only the first round of bombing, and the position that had been built so hard was already riddled with holes.
Some of the surviving soldiers looked outside from the fortifications, only to see that there were countless dead and wounded outside, and there were piles of corpses.
The mercenaries recruited at the outermost perimeter were completely frightened.
Even if they haven’t escaped yet, the rest are paralyzed in the trenches, their minds blank.
At best, they only had fights on the street. When had they ever experienced such a scene? The firepower carried by fighter jets cannot be compared to that of aerospace vehicles.
The sight before him was a living hell.
After bombing the outer positions, the fighter jets circled back and rushed towards the artillery positions of New America.
It only took a short time to destroy the artillery position.
Without the air force and the firepower of the artillery, the new United States is no longer able to stop the Dawn Military Company’s attack.
The general attack began.
The ones at the front were still the thick-skinned warrior mechas. They appeared in the dark night like gods descending from the earth.
Their huge bodies do not mean that they are slow and clumsy in movement. With the support of thrusters, the Warrior mecha is as fast as lightning and quickly approaches the New America’s position.
Seeing them, not to mention the mercenaries who had never been on the battlefield, even ordinary soldiers lost their courage and had no idea of resistance.
When the Warfighter mecha approached, it was discovered that the soldiers did not fire at them.
So the pilot in the mecha didn’t kill them either.
Instead, it used a magnetic field generator to attract the soldiers’ weapons.
It is equivalent to disarming them in disguise.
Wait until the following infantry and tanks come up, and then arrest them one by one.
The Warfighter mecha continues to attack the second line of defense behind it.
The soldiers on the rear defense line saw that they could survive as long as they surrendered.
So they all chose not to resist.
Just kidding, there are fighter jets dropping bombs overhead, and the enemy’s roaring artillery in the distance. Now in front of me
There are so many mechas, how can we fight?
Although these soldiers are regular troops with military technology, they also cherish their lives. Why must they die if they can live?
What’s more, I’m even less willing to die for the company.
Many officers and soldiers had the same idea.
But there are still quite a number of stubborn officers who still insist on resisting to the end.
However, even though these officers wanted to resist, no matter how hysterical and hoarse they were, it was of no use.
As for a very small number of officers, they tried to use the unwise method of shooting soldiers to force them to resist.
It’s equally useless.
Instead, the soldier who did so inspired a mutiny and was killed by the angry soldiers.
…
President Miles and the generals sitting in the Pentagon looked pale.
On the huge display screen, the picture that appeared was that the troops they had placed high hopes on were defeated like a mountain.
Since none of the troops who initially blocked the front line escaped alive, President Miles and the others did not even know that Sugon Military Company had such a powerful weapon as the Warfighter mecha.
“Madam President, should we run away?”
Most of the soldiers on the front line chose to surrender, and the few who dared to resist could not resist for long.
In fact, as far as the Warrior mecha is concerned, a powerful weapon that runs fast, is hard enough, and comes with a magnetic field generator and a gravity field, even if all the troops of the new United States fight to the death, the final result will be Still defeated.
It’s just that in that case, it can buy President Miles and the others valuable time to retreat.
Unlike now, the army was defeated so suddenly that there was no chance to escape.
With the speed of advancement on the other side, it won’t be long before the Pentagon will be filled with people from Dawn Military Company.
And if they want to escape, it seems they can only do it now.
However, President Miles turned pale and shook his head.
“Escape? How to escape? We no longer have control of the air. Now if we take off in a plane, we will only be shot down.”
Others also looked very ugly: “Is there no other way?”
“From now on, there will be no more military technology.”
An hour later, the sounds of fighting came nearby.
President Miles and others all knew that this meant that the troops of Dawn Military Company had arrived outside the Pentagon.
Their expressions were ugly, but they still sat still and did not move.
Another half hour passed, and the door to the combat conference room was opened, and a group of soldiers filed in.
One general wanted to yell, but in the end said nothing.
Su Xiao walked in under the protection of Goro Takemura and several soldiers.
“President Miles, and generals, you are in shock.”
“Are you the president of Shuguang Military Company?”
President Miles had never met Su Xiao. This was his first offline meeting, and he found that Su Xiao was unexpectedly young.
“I think by now we can have a good talk, right?”
“What do you want?”
“If you all cooperate, I think we can have a great time talking.”
Three hours later, Su Xiao left the combat conference room with satisfaction.
He didn’t want the lives of President Miles and those generals.
They were even allowed to keep a lot of their property.
