Chapter 365 The only light in the dark land of America
One country, four regimes.
When Steve Rogers, the real Captain America of this universe, held high the flag of righteousness in Texas and officially reestablished the "Lone Star Republic", there were four independent regimes on the land of the United States.
They are the orthodox Eastern Federation, which can only cover a few states east of the Appalachian Mountains but is known as the "United States of America";
It is entrenched in the northwest states of Washington and Oregon. "Indian Republic";
The "Southwestern Commonwealth" is based in the three southwestern states of California, Arizona, and New Mexico and has invaded Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arkansas; Star Republic".
As for other states, they have all been in a wait-and-see mode before.
Some, like Florida, pulled Georgia and Alabama to create the "Florida Union", which was very independent, but did not ultimately abandon the name of the Confederacy of America and reestablish a flag.
There are also some states that have only established "local mutual protection" organizations. They treat the two major civil war forces equally and waver in the face of the two major civil wars.
Unfortunately, this situation was broken when the United States was blocked.
The foundation of any organization is its people.
When people's hearts are floating and riots are widespread, the original social order is bound to be broken. The "Lone Star Republic" that took advantage of the situation has given a successful example to many ambitious guys in the United States, further aggravating the situation in the United States. chaotic situation.
However, careerists who lack extraordinary combat power and ideological weapons can only resort to traditional American methods such as gangs and cults. In addition to making the situation more chaotic, it has no benefit to the civilians at the bottom. On the contrary, it highlights the " Lone Star Republic".
……
After capturing Houston, Captain True organized personnel to build a defense line outside the city and await counterattacks from other parts of Texas.
What he didn't expect was that the counterattack force was not strong enough at all. Not only were there insufficient numbers, but they also moved slowly.
The United States is blocked, and the consortium bosses who fled the country cannot contact the people left behind. The people left behind do not have enough authority and prestige to integrate all parties and form an efficient leadership organization.
Before the retreat, the masters had already established a power check and balance model for the left-behind people to ensure that no one could dominate the country. For major strategic matters, the masters must be consulted for instructions. Otherwise, how could the masters dare to transfer with confidence?
After the blockade was exposed, even the executives themselves became cautious, which further reduced the response efficiency of the government authorities.
100% of the strength cannot be used to exert 30%.
The true captain personally took action, quickly repelled a few "returning regiments", and then completely defended Houston's foundation.
The situation stabilized, and Steve Rogers began to carry out drastic reforms in the Houston area.
First, forcefully take over all factories and farms inside and outside the city, eliminate the rentier class, and mobilize the people to resume production.
Secondly, young and middle-aged men with innocent backgrounds are selected for military training to organize and train the new army.
Finally, intellectuals from lower-class backgrounds were selected to form new management agencies.
Three-pronged approach, Houston not only restored production and life order, but also showed unparalleled vitality.
After recognizing the reality that the United States is blocked, everyone knows that food, water, energy and other living supplies are the most precious things in the future. In a country under capitalist control, most production activities are only for the pursuit of profit. More than half of the wealth created by workers is taken away by capitalists and squandered to maintain their own enjoyment. Only a part will continue to be invested in social reproduction so that they can continue to pursue profits.
This model has fatal flaws in today's blocked America, because workers facing a life and death crisis are no longer willing to accept the exploitation of capitalists.
In the past, when the order was stable, there was no choice. If you wanted to survive, you had to accept exploitation. Now, in an environment where you are always ready to die, why do you still watch most of the fruits of your labor being exploited? Why are you willing to watch? Do working capitalists still enjoy the luxury brought by exploitation?
The capitalists did not believe that the poor would work conscientiously and continue to create wealth for them. They simply hoarded a large amount of supplies and arms and hid in the manors built into fortresses.
Without the leaders of the past to come forward to organize, there is no hope of restoring production order.
Unrest has occurred frequently in other areas of the United States, and the production order has been destroyed, further exacerbating the shortage of living materials. Various powerful organizations have stepped up their pace of plundering materials, causing the difficulty of civilian survival to skyrocket.
At this time, the "Lone Star Republic" has become the only shining star in the darkness of America, the most beautiful boy on this earth!
"My fellow Americans, I am Steve Rogers. I once had a title: Captain America..."
After putting into practice the ideas he learned in the past three years in Houston, the true captain saw a completely new city. , a completely different world.
This gave him firmer confidence in his grand goal of changing America.
This confidence made him believe that he was on the right track and that he could bring a new world to his fellow Americans.
Since it is successful, of course more Americans should enjoy the fruits of this success.
Therefore, he immediately used the remaining local television networks to conduct a live speech.
"I believe everyone already knows what happened in the United States. Yes, the United States is blocked by a mysterious membrane..."
"We cannot escape, but we cannot despair. We should rely on Use your own strength to save yourself!”
“I am now in Houston. I just led the rebel army to overthrow the Texas authorities a few days ago. Now I have restored the order of production and life in Houston...”
The scene shifts to the streets of Houston, where people are crowded, but they are not demonstrating or engaging in various violent actions like other cities. Instead, they are carrying out various labors under the leadership of new government officials.
Cleaning up urban garbage, repairing previously damaged streets and buildings...there is no anger, anxiety or panic visible on people's faces, but instead they are full of hope and high-spirited.
“Compatriots, if you have lost food and water, if you have difficulty surviving, please find a way to come to Houston. We have prepared job opportunities for everyone here, and prepared enough food and water... "
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"It's all fake!"
"These are not real people at all!"

Seeing the prosperous scene in Houston after changing the flag, but seeing the endless unrest in their urban area, the American "Fine Eagles" were unsurprisingly furious.
Are you kidding?
Can the great capitalism and the great America be no match for the red they have already killed?
I owe three chapters, so I will make up for it four times a day after three days off~
