Even if Meredith informs Militech, what will happen?

Don't forget, she is in Night City now, not in the capital Washington.

She is originally far away from the center of power of Militech. Even if she makes a meritorious service this time, how much can the higher-ups take her seriously?

Just because of this, you want to enter the inner circle? How is it possible?

Meredith himself is obviously aware of this.

If Militech didn't know her background, she would have been transferred to the capital, Washington, a long time ago.

"Even if you are right, what's the use? The world is as dark as crows. Which company is not like this?"

"At least in Bolivia right now, it's the fittest that wins. If you do a good job, Minister

It won't be your end."

An hour later, Su Xiao left the Militech building with satisfaction.

After coming out of the Militech building, he went straight to Arasaka Waterfront.

In the port of Arasaka Waterfront, there is a huge ship parked.

A blockade was set up all the way near the port, strictly prohibiting ordinary people from approaching.

Su Xiao showed the pass to the Arasaka soldiers standing around the blockade, and then entered the port without any obstruction and boarded one of the giant ships.

On the deck of the giant ship, Saul, Mitch, Skar, Panam, V, Lucy, Mann and others were discussing around a map. When they saw Su Xiao coming up, they all came over and said, "Boss, how are you doing?"

"Let the brothers move and move things down. It's time for us to appear."

At the same time, at the same time, an encrypted communication was sent from the Militech building to the capital Washington.

The content of the encrypted communication is: It has been determined that Arasaka's follow-up troops are still marching along Canada. Arasaka has no other allies. Texas and Western States still remain neutral. Please rest assured in the organization.

Chapter 346 Here they come, they come (4K)

After the capital Washington received the encrypted communication from Night City, it did not doubt the content of the encrypted communication.

Neither President Myers nor the generals of Militech think that Meredith has a reason to betray.

Because even if she defected to Arasaka, Raijin Arasaka would not give her a higher status and treatment than in Militech.

Even if you look at Westerners, there are quite a few examples of surrendering during wars.

But this does not mean that surrender is not a shame.

It's just that in Western people's perception, if you reach the point where you run out of ammunition and food, there is no need to fight anymore.

Anyway, if you continue to fight, you will lose your life in vain. It is better to surrender and then find a chance to escape from the prisoner of war camp.

As long as there is life left, there will always be a time when it can be useful.

In the final analysis, surrender is only a move that Westerners will make when they have no choice but to do so.

As for defecting to another company, that option is even less rational.

Arasaka and Militech should not be simply regarded as companies, they are actually no different from countries.

If it is just a company and a normal job change, then there is no need for Herman to be secretive when leaving Arasaka, for fear that Arasaka will know his whereabouts.

Some people may say that he has Arasaka's top secret information and all information about relic, so Arasaka cannot let him go.

But doesn't this further confirm that Arasaka and Militech are not countries but companies.

After all, there is really a country that has done this kind of thing.

Moreover, Raijin Arasaka is Japanese.

Basically, Asian countries believe that surrender and betrayal are shameful.

People who change careers will eventually be disliked by their new colleagues after arriving in a new place, no matter what their reasons are.

Meredith Surrender, you may be able to save your life, but you will definitely not receive high treatment.

After the value is used up, there is a high probability that it will be kicked away.

Meredith himself doesn't understand this truth.

Therefore, President Myers and the generals all believe that Meredith will not join Arasaka.

In addition, the current collapse of the frontline battle situation does not allow them to have enough time to consider whether the content of the encrypted communication sent by Meredith is true or not.

Because Arasaka came too fast and too fiercely.

The attack target of Arasaka is Ogdensburg of New York.

Ogdensburg is located in New York, to the north of New America, adjacent to Ottawa in Canada.

If Arasaka breaks through Ogdensburg, then Arasaka's army can go all the way south, not only capturing the northeast of New America, but also going straight to the capital Washington.

President Myers and the generals are not unable to leave by plane before the enemy troops arrive and go abroad to establish a government in exile.

However, if New America is taken down locally, then Militech will definitely suffer a big blow, and its brand weight will fall to the point where it is even inferior to a medium-sized company like High-Tech Military Industry.

Therefore, now that the encrypted communication sent from Meredith has confirmed that Arasaka's follow-up troops will still take the Canadian railway, President Myers and the generals no longer have any hesitation.

Immediately dispatch the Wisconsin troops north to cut off the Arasaka railway from Canada Vancouver to Ottawa.

After the railway is cut off, it will not only block the supply transportation of the Arasaka troops, but also block the subsequent reinforcements of the Arasaka troops.

The Michigan troops also headed north, but their task was not to cooperate with Wisconsin's troops, but to follow the railway eastward and circle around to attack the back of Arasaka's leading troops.

Finally, the Ohio troops rushed to the New York front line to support the New York troops and stick to Ogdensburg.

As a result, two days passed, and Ogdensburg had already fallen before reinforcements from Ohio arrived at Ogdensburg.

The New York troops were defeated by the vanguard of Arasaka and fled in all directions.

Arasaka's vanguard troops did not go all over the mountains and plains to catch New York

The deserters from the army did not stop and wait for subsequent reinforcements. Instead, they plunged straight into the capital, Washington, like a sharp knife.

I didn't expect Arasaka's vanguard to be so capable of fighting. President Myers and the generals were still a little panicked.

However, it's only a little bit.

Not particularly panicked.

It's okay, no big problem.

Because they already know that Arasaka's reinforcements are taking the Canadian railway from Vancouver to Ottawa, and they have also mobilized troops to intercept Arasaka's reinforcements.

Now Arasaka has no reserve team.

Then the troops they left behind in Oklahoma and Louisiana no longer need to stay there and can be transferred over to defend the capital Washington.

Although Ohio troops have been sent there before, this Arasaka vanguard force is a bit fierce.

President Myers doesn't dare to bet on whether it can be blocked.

If we can't stop it and the enemy attacks us in the capital, it will be very embarrassing.

In the history of the United States, there has been a humiliating history of being attacked by the enemy in the capital and burning down the White House.

Of course, since the United States later entered the world stage, it has never experienced such a dilemma.

Therefore, of course, if possible, we still want to try our best to avoid such a situation.

If the White House is burned down again, then Militech and New America's faces will be completely lost.

In fact, President Myers and the generals, even if they try hard to figure it out, why Raijin Arasaka is so reckless?

You must know that at Fourth Corporate War, like this Hot Weapon War, it has reached the third stage.

Moreover, the battlefields of their conflicts were all overseas, not decisive battles at home.

The previous president New America, and Raijin Arasaka's father Saburo, all beat Fourth Corporate War in this way.

How can Raijin Arasaka be like this, who directly removes all Arasaka's overseas territories, gathers all the troops, and then sends them over in one go?

There was no probing, no mercenaries were hired to attack, it was a formal war from the very beginning. Raijin Arasaka, this guy doesn't want to destroy the earth, does he?

Although Raijin Arasaka's thoughts were elusive, good news came from the front line soon after.

The Ohio troops and the dispersed New York troops united and actually resisted the attack of the Arasaka vanguard troops.

And Arasaka's reinforcements came all the way from the railway as Meredith's intelligence said, but were stopped by Wisconsin's troops.

However, the troops from Michigan disobeyed the orders issued by the Pentagon and did not attack the vanguard of Arasaka. Instead, they joined forces with Wisconsin to jointly block Arasaka's reinforcements.

Although the commander of the Michigan troops made arbitrary decisions and disobeyed orders.

But President Myers and the generals, considering that Arasaka's leading troops have now been stopped, plus blocking Arasaka's reinforcements, are indeed very important.

Therefore, after thinking again and again, I chose not to pursue the matter.

Although Arasaka's thunderous action shocked Militech at the beginning, the offensive of Arasaka's vanguard has now been blocked.

Although the Ohio troops and the remnants of New York alone are not enough to take down the vanguard of Arasaka.

But don't forget, after receiving the encrypted communication from Meredith, heavy troops of Oklahoma and Louisiana were mobilized.

Once these two troops arrive, and then encircle them, Arasaka's leading troops will definitely be gone.

President Myers seemed to have seen the scene where Raijin Arasaka was so angry that his face turned green.

Now it seems that burning down the White House is impossible.

Not only has the situation turned around, but Militech has the upper hand.

Therefore, everyone was in a very happy mood.

One of the generals even said with a smile.

"The Japanese have never turned a corner in their wars for the past two thousand years. I have studied their history and found that the hero they admire most is called Sanada Nobushige, or Sanada Yukimura. When he died, he rushed into the enemy lines and died."

Another general also said, "It's a pity that Raijin Arasaka is not Sanada Nobushige and will not be in the vanguard."

If Raijin Arasaka dies, Arasaka will collapse instantly, and there will be no need to fight this battle.

But I can only think about it.

Modern war is not ancient war. Even in this era, the war is fought like World War II, but its nature is completely different from ancient war.

In ancient wars, emperors or kings fought in person.

But in modern warfare, there will never be a situation where a president, or a company CEO, moves with the troops.

Because the risks of modern warfare and the possibility of accidents are simply too high.

If something goes wrong, it will be GG.

Moreover, even in ancient times, it was definitely not a wise choice to go on a personal expedition.

Unless the emperor himself experienced countless fierce battles and fought hard all the way before he became emperor.

Otherwise, for an emperor who has been in the palace compound since he was born, it would be better not to go on a personal expedition, such as the Mingbao Sect, so as not to ruin a good situation.

Just as the Pentagon was filled with laughter and laughter, a piece of bad news came like a bolt from the blue.

Texas, who claimed to be on the side of neutrality, suddenly launched an attack on New America.

an army

Rushed directly into Oklahoma.

Like a whirlwind, passing through Arkansas.

Just as the news came through, it had already entered the territory of Tennessee.

Their target, without a doubt, is the capital, Washington.

President Myers and the generals, who were chatting and laughing just now, were all shocked.

Didn't it say that Arasaka's troops all use Canadian railways?

How could he come from Texas?

Moreover, from Night City to Texas, you have to pass through Western States in the middle.

If it is Arasaka's army, why don't Meredith who stayed in Night City report it?

Did she betray Militech?

But this shouldn't be the case.
