Meredith is a smart person. She should not know that she will not get much benefit from taking refuge in Arasaka.

No matter how confused President Myers and her generals are, they have no time to dwell on this right now.

The top priority now is to find out whether Texas has moved towards Arasaka.

Soon, they figured it out.

Texas did not fall to Arasaka this time.

It may be that the scale of Fifth Corporate War is too big, far beyond the level of Unification War, and this is not a scale that it can fit into.

Therefore, even if there was another feud with New America, Texas did not participate in the war, but lent military access rights to other armies.

The other armies here are not the army of Texas, nor the army of Arasaka...

Finally, we found out that it was the Bolivian army.

This made President Myers and the others collectively confused.

Because in their impression, let alone Bolivia, the entire Latin American region has no sense of existence.

After all, Latin America is too far from paradise and too close to the United States.

The United States' ability to develop and become a world hegemon is inseparable from its own geographical location, in addition to the recognized mistakes of World War I and World War II.

Its location is quite superior, and it belongs to God who is rushing to feed burgers.

The United States is bounded by Mexico to the south, Canada to the north, and the sea to the east and west. It is blessed by nature.

Unlike old Europe, where Spain, France, Austria, Germany, and Russia were all crowded together on one continent, there was also the United Kingdom, which although it was alone overseas, always wanted to be the continent's balancer.

And because of this, when the United States was still there, it kept an eye on Latin America to prevent the emergence of countries in Latin America that could compete with the United States.

During the decades of the Cold War, the United States did many things to impress Latin America.

Later, although the United States disintegrated, even if New America shifted its attention away from the Latin American region, Latin America would not be able to survive due to the disasters of the previous decades.

Although President Myers heard about it, a private military company called Dawn Society went to Bolivia, eliminated other forces in Bolivia, and became the ruler of Bolivia.

But if they are not there to plunder people's wealth and money, what are they doing here?

What is going on now?

Could it be that Dawn Military Company was hired by Arasaka, so he took advantage of Texas to send troops to New America?

If this is really the case, then it makes sense.

After all, during the Fourth War, both sides found many private military companies to help them fight the war.

This time, before Militech had time to look for it, Arasaka had already pressed forward.

But the problem is still not big.

Dawn Military Company is just a private military company established less than two years ago. How can it be so capable?

After a brief discussion, President Myers and the generals decided to let the Louisiana troops continue to go north to make dumplings for the Arasaka vanguard troops.

The Oklahoma troops went south, and they were responsible for defeating the Dawn Military Company troops.

Even if you can't defeat it, it doesn't matter.

As long as we can stop Dawn Military Company from going deeper, wait until the other troops of New America have solved the vanguard of Arasaka, and then they will be free...

The result is still the same.

If nothing else, there won't be any difference.

Then, things happened as expected.

Chapter 347: Opening champagne at halftime is taboo (4K)

February 20th.

The troops of Dawn Military Company and the troops of Oklahoma of New America met at a place called Nashville in Tennessee.

It's not far from the capital, Washington.

If the Oklahoma troops are unable to stop the Dawn Military Company troops here, then the burning of the White House in history will happen again today.

However, the commander of the Oklahoma unit was not too worried about blocking Dawn Military Company.

Because he has 20,000 soldiers on hand, as well as the support of a series of war machines such as armored vehicles, Main Battle Tank, fighter jets, etc.

He heard about Dawn Military Company kicking Anti-government Armed Forces and punching Sparkle Group in Bolivia.

But their Militech security forces are not on the same level as Anti-government Armed Forces and Sparkle Group in poor Latin American countries.

Although the commander felt that the men he had alone were enough to fight the opponent.

But even if you estimate conservatively, it won't be a problem to hold the opponent back.

What's more, they arrived at the battlefield early so that the soldiers could rest and recuperate.

Waiting for work with ease.

On the 21st, the troops of Dawn Military Company also arrived at Nashville and stopped opposite the position where the troops of Oklahoma were defending.

The commander of the Oklahoma unit originally wanted to take advantage of the opponent's new arrival and unsteady footing to launch an attack to catch the opponent off guard.

But after thinking about it, I forgot about it.

Now they need to delay more. Once other troops have eliminated the vanguard of Arasaka and come to support them, they will be sure of victory.

They don't need to rush to attack, because the real rush is on the other side.

Just as the commander thought, Dawn Military Company's troops, after resting for a day, the next day, that is, in the early morning of the 22nd, they couldn't wait to launch an attack.

First there was the roar of the cannon.

The artillery brought by Dawn Military Company made a deafening roar, and the shells fell like raindrops on the position of Oklahoma troops.

Oklahoma's artillery was also unwilling to be outdone and vented its anger.

While the cannons of both sides were competing, the Air Force was not idle either.

Fighters were fighting each other in the air. From time to time, a fighter jet would fall with a plume of smoke, or simply explode in the air, turning into a ball of brilliant fireworks.

The aerial battlefield was fierce. Of course, the ground troops did not hang up and watch. Instead, under the cover of artillery fire, they launched an assault towards the position of the Oklahoma troops.

Oklahoma's ground troops were standing ready on the position, with rifles, machine guns, mortars, anti-tank guns, as well as Walking Mech's Gatling guns and Rockets's, all facing forward, waiting for Dawn Military Company's troops to get into their firepower net.

But when they saw the Dawn Military Company ground troops, it was not the Infantry-tank Cooperation formation they expected with infantry hiding behind tanks and armored vehicles.

Instead, there are more than a dozen War Machine Mech that are five meters high.

These War Machine Mech are taller than Militech and Walking Mech, but the armor also looks stronger.

What's even more terrible is that when Oklahoma's troops saw them, the propellers behind these War Machine Mechs started, and these dozen War Machine Mechs all turned into black afterimages and rushed towards the position of Oklahoma's troops.

Oklahoma's troops were all shocked.

What is going on?

Is this a mecha?

How can there be a mecha that can run so fast?

Because the speed of War Machine Mech was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly, the troops of Oklahoma had no choice but to fire at will, trying to cover it with a hail of bullets.

But it's no use.

War Machine Mech basically avoided most of the barrages. Only a small number of bullets could hit their armor, but they could only splash little sparks.

Nothing else.

Then, just for a moment, these dozen War Machine Mech were like meteors, crashing into Oklahoma's position.

What followed was a massacre.

They don't even need to shoot, as long as they increase their speed, ordinary infantrymen will die if they hit them.

Even tanks and armored vehicles, Walking Mech, couldn't carry it at all, and they would roll over and fall down when hit.

Then use Gravity Field to squeeze the driver inside alive.

After being betrayed by War Machine Mech, the defense line that Oklahoma's troops had worked so hard to build suddenly collapsed, and the troops fell into chaos.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dawn Military Company's infantry and tanks formed a coordinated formation to press forward.

Unfortunately, because Su Xiao was wearing "Falcione" Exoskeleton Armor and assassinated Hana Arasaka before, he could not put the already mass-produced Exoskeleton Armor into uniforms for the troops.

Otherwise, others will know that Hana Arasaka died at the hands of Dawn Military Company, and the legitimacy and legitimacy of Raijin Arasaka will instantly collapse.

But it doesn't matter.

Although there is no way to equip the troops with Exoskeleton Armor, Su Xiao worked overtime to make War Machine Mech, and it lived up to Su Xiao's expectations.

Successfully broke through and disrupted the enemy's defense lines.

Once the defense line was disrupted, there was no suspense in this battle.

What followed was a full hour of massacre, and 20,000 Oklahoma troops were finally wiped out.

It's not that they have the courage to fight to the death, nor is it because of Militech and New America's loyalty.

But they had no chance to escape at all.

War Machine Mech looks big, but it is not bulky at all.

When the propellers are turned on, they are faster than a car, and they are very targeted. They rush into the enemy lines and the first thing they destroy are self-propelled artillery, tanks, and armored vehicles.

Ordinary infantrymen without vehicles can run faster than War Machine Mech with just their legs.

Moreover, when the battle situation on the ground turned one-sided, the winner in the air was also clearly determined. The victorious Dawn Military Company fighter jets aimed at the defeated soldiers of the Oklahoma unit on the ground and fired with a single barrage.

It was with such efficient and rapid killing that none of Oklahoma's troops could escape.

The Nashville battle ended with the victory of Dawn Military Company.

Dawn Military Company There are not many casualties here.

The casualties of the ground troops mainly came from the initial artillery fire.

Boom, when the two sides get close, the casualties caused by the enemy will be very few.

The losses suffered by the Air Force were even smaller.

Because all the fighter jets here at Dawn Military Company are sponsored by Arasaka, and even the pilots are their own.

Or to put it bluntly, he is an old brand Mega Corporation, and he has a lot of money.

In order to bring down Militech, Raijin Arasaka is willing to lend Su Xiao the latest fighter jets and pilots, so naturally Su Xiao cannot be stingy.

So when they arrived, Su Xiao sent Combat Augmentor Enhancer to each of them.

This thing is inspired by the modification of the chip by Su Xiao from Judy.

He previously produced many regular versions and sold them to Republic of Texas.

What I left behind were enhanced versions.

Compared with the normal version, the enhanced version can be greatly strengthened.

If the special forces are equipped with it, the special forces will become as powerful as Captain America.

And if the pilot is equipped with it, it can also greatly enhance the pilot's abilities in all aspects.

Although these pilots are all Arasaka's people, now is the stage of cooperation with Arasaka, and Raijin Arasaka is so interesting, so Su Xiao cannot hide his secrets.

So he gave these pilots the enhanced version of Combat Augmentor instead of the normal version.

It is precisely because of this that Arasaka's fighter can completely defeat New America.

After defeating the Oklahoma troops, the Dawn Military Company troops rested for a while and then continued eastward toward the capital, Washington.

Since all the combat units of New America had their own tasks, they did not expect that the Oklahoma unit responsible for blocking the attack was almost completely wiped out after not being able to sustain it for even a day. This resulted in the Dawn Military Company unit acting as if they were in a no-man's land, never encountering any resistance and moving forward unimpeded.

While the troops of Dawn Military Company were roaring all the way on the land of New America, in the Pentagon, President Myers and the generals who finally learned that the blocking troops had been wiped out were collectively dumbfounded.

No matter how hard they tried, they still couldn't figure out why the troops who came to block the attack couldn't even stop them and were destroyed.

Even the intelligence was not sent back in time. The news that Dawn Military Company's troops were advancing towards the capital, Washington, came from civilians who witnessed it along the way.

Because Dawn Military Company's troops did not massacre civilians, many civilians videotaped Dawn Military Company's advance and posted them online.

After seeing these pictures on the Internet, President Myers and the generals had different opinions:

Some people think that you have to run quickly before Dawn Military Company arrives, otherwise it will be too late;
