Others feel that they just lost an army.

They still have several units, and those units are still resisting.

They can completely 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 are still fighting on the front line know that they have escaped, they will not continue to fight, but will 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 blocking the Arasaka reinforcements and the troops surrounding the Arasaka vanguard, for a total of 30,000 people, and let them return to defend the capital.

At the same time, there are many private military companies in New America's homeland besides Militech.

President Myers 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 them as much President Myers as they want.

President Myers's attitude satisfied the bosses of these New America local private military companies, and they all expressed their willingness to help this place.

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 New America (because New America's local security industry is monopolized by Militech).

Therefore, Militech and New America have to survive a wave of offensives on their own before the mercenaries from private military companies can come over.

Fortunately, in addition to private military companies, New America also has mercenaries like Night City who work as a team or as a lone wolf.

Normally, the company would never give such a mercenary a second glance, thinking that they are no different from opera singers.

But at a time like this, I have no choice.

We can only cast a wide net.

These local mercenaries arrived very quickly, but there was just one problem.

None of these mercenaries have ever experienced a real war. What they have done 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, Dawn Military Company of ammunition will be consumed.

But even so, President Myers still chooses to sign as much as he wants.

Anyway, these mercenaries will be placed on the outermost defense line of the capital at that time, and they will consume as many Dawn Military Company people as they can.

Su Xiao stood on the roof of the tank, looking into the distance with a telescope.

"That's the capital of New America, military

The headquarters of science and technology."

V, who was next to the tank, sighed, "As long as we capture that place, Militech will be finished."

Su Xiao put away the telescope and jumped off the tank. "A centipede is dead but not stiff. Militech may not collapse immediately, but it will be greatly weakened. It is true."

New America Most of the troops 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.

Su Xiao is not very worried about them.

What he was thinking about was what President Myers would do if he could capture the capital, Washington.

If she escapes, it is very likely that President Myers will go to the overseas territory of Militech and try to make a comeback.

Of course, Militech, whose homeland has already fallen, cannot make much of a turmoil.

All I can say is disgusting Su Xiao and Raijin Arasaka.

And if President Myers chooses to surrender, then Militech will immediately withdraw from the stage of history.

He and Raijin Arasaka are equal to winning most of the victory in smashing the world dominated by corporations.

Of course, it's not right to open champagne at halftime.

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 New America slows down.

After all, Dawn Military Company is not as strong as Arasaka and Militech, so we cannot fall into a consumption situation with Militech.

If the consumption is too high, even if you win in the end, it will be a miserable victory, and you 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 was given to the poor, what a sin (4K)

That night, Dawn Military Company launched an attack.

The multiple rocket launcher vehicles and self-propelled artillery are sending all their firepower to the New America position.

Even without flares, under such raging firepower, it was enough to illuminate the night as brightly as the day.

Fighters, War Machine Mech, 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 could climb up quickly, War Machine Mech rushed to the front, so they used Magnetic Field Generator to start interfering with it.

Under the influence of the strong magnetic field, although New America's fighter jet was not attracted because it was still a certain distance away, it was 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 its string broken.

Although this wave did not wipe out all of New America's air force, it lost most of the air force protecting the capital Washington.

The number of remaining fighter jets is completely incomparable to the Dawn Military Company air force.

It didn't take long for Dawn Military Company to gain control of the air.

The Dawn Military Company fighter jets that destroyed the New America Air Force roared over the capital Washington, pouring their firepower towards the enemy forces 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 peeked out from the fortifications, only to see numerous casualties and piles of corpses outside.

The mercenaries who were recruited at the outermost perimeter were completely frightened.

Even if those who had not escaped, the rest were paralyzed in the trenches, their minds blank.

At best, they only fight in the streets. When have they ever experienced such a scene? The firepower carried by fighter jets is not comparable to that of AV.

The sight before him was a living hell.

After bombing the outer positions, the fighter jets circled back and rushed towards the artillery position of New America.

It only took a short time to destroy the artillery positions.

Without the air force and the firepower of the artillery, New America is no longer able to stop Dawn Military Company's attack.

The general attack began.

The ones at the front were still the thick-skinned War Machine Mech. When they appeared in the dark night, they were like gods descending to earth.

Their huge bodies do not mean that they move slowly and clumsily. With the support of the thrusters, War Machine Mech is as fast as lightning and quickly approaches the position of New America.

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 War Machine Mech approached, it was discovered that these soldiers did not fire at them.

So the pilot in the mecha didn't kill them either.

Instead, he used Magnetic Field Generator to suck in the soldiers' weapons.

It's like disarming them in disguise.

Wait until the following infantry and tanks come up, and then arrest them one by one.

War Machine Mech continues to attack the second line of defense behind it.

The soldiers on the defensive line behind 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 all Militech regular troops, 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 also useless.

On the contrary, the soldiers who did this triggered a mutiny and were killed by angry soldiers.

President Myers, who was sitting in the Pentagon, and the generals looked pale.

The picture that appeared on the huge display screen was that the troops they had placed high hopes on were completely defeated.

Since none of the troops who initially blocked the attack on the front line escaped alive, President Myers and the others did not even know that Dawn Military Company and War Machine Mech were such big killers.

"Madam President, should we escape?"

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, for a powerful killer like War Machine Mech that runs fast, is hard enough, and comes with a magnetic field generator and Gravity Field, even if New America's army fights to the death, the final result will still be defeat.

It's just that in that case, it can buy President Myers and the others valuable time to retreat.

Unlike now, the army was defeated so suddenly that there was no chance to escape.

At this advancing speed, it won't be long before the Pentagon will be filled with Dawn Military Company people.

And if they want to escape, it seems they can only do it now.

However, President Myers 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 Militech."

An hour later, the sounds of fighting came nearby.

President Myers and others all know that this means that Dawn Military Company's troops have arrived outside the Pentagon.

Their expressions were ugly, but they still sat there 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.

A general wanted to scold him, but in the end he said nothing.

Su Xiao walked in under the protection of Goro Takemura and several soldiers.

"President Myers, and generals, you are frightened."

"Are you the president of Dawn Military Company?"

President Myers has never met Su Xiao. This is the first time they met offline and I found that Su Xiao is unexpectedly young.

"I think by now we can have a good talk, right?"

"What do you want?"

"If you cooperate, I think we can have a nice talk."

Three hours later, Su Xiao left the combat conference room with satisfaction.

He did not want the lives of President Myers and those generals.

They were even allowed to keep a lot of their property.
