In order to deal a better and more thorough blow to the entire Howington Group, whether it was Yurisses or Dabinett, they were quite generous in their fight against the second counterattack in Dark Town.
It was no exaggeration to say that under the command of Admiral Scana, the Marine Corps commander, the troops rushing to Dark Town were all direct subordinates of the Howington Group, and not a single outsider soldier was present.
This was undoubtedly a very abnormal phenomenon.
Although the four southwestern states of the United States were all under the influence of the Howington Group, they weren't completely out of the question. In fact, both Yurisses and Dabinett had confidants in the four southwestern states. They weren't as powerful as the Howington Group.
Along with Dabinett and Yurisses letting go, their troops in the four southwestern states also remained silent.
Without inquiring about the news or deliberately causing trouble, the two giants acted as if they were standing aside, causing the two political groups to watch this second counterattack war with cold eyes.
But in reality, Dabinett and Yurisses, who had let go on the surface, kept a high degree of attention to Dark Town. Naturally, what they were concerned about was not the course of the war, but the outcome.
Countless war analysts had clearly pointed out that with Scana's current strength, the chances of taking down Dark Town were no more than 30%, but the chances of both sides being injured were as high as 80%.
So Dabinett and Yurisses weren't worried at all.
They only needed to wait for the result of Scana and Teglas' defeat. As long as this result spread back to the Ancient City, it meant that the Howington Group would become history.
As the twenty-four-hour deadline approached, Yurisses and Dabinett sat together again in tacit understanding, waiting for news of the defeat ahead, as well as waiting to split up the Howington Group as quickly as possible.
"No matter what, losing the war is not something to be happy about. But why am I so excited?"
Sitting opposite Yurisses, Dabinett waved the glass in his hand and sighed.
"Because this failure will bring us a better future."
Yurisses was leaning against the sofa behind him in the most relaxed manner, and his expression was also very happy.
Better future!
Yes, a better future.
At the very least, the two of them believed that this defeat could be exchanged for more, so the sacrifice of tens of thousands of meters of troops?
Although this amount was large, it was worth it, and they could afford to lose it.
The intense pressure from the royal family and the Divine Continent Empire, the terrifying losses Lin Xuanyuan and the others had inflicted in the United States, and the infighting between them and their two successors, Huo Wenton and Dabinett, all made Yurisses feel tired from the bottom of his heart.
It was bone marrow fatigue. He was really tired, and he urgently needed a better environment to rest.
After the fall of the Howington Group, Dabinett became the only successor to the United States. The conflict between him and Yurisses would immediately ease. Without a Howington, the three of them would not have to fight. Yurisses would retire after the war and Dabinett would take over after the war. Everything was perfect.
As for the division of the Howington Group, There was indeed a difference between the two of them, However, once the most important matter was settled, it would be easy to discuss the matter of carving up the Huo Wenton Group. In fact, the two of them had already discussed about it. There were countless sensitive positions of power in the Huo Wenton Group and a large part of the territory. The two of them had already confirmed their ownership. Only a few extremely important sensitive positions still needed to be discussed.
For example, the candidate for governor of Golden State.
For example, the Marine Corps commander candidate.
Such as the Air Force Transportation Command candidate.
Or a list of some of the most important members of Congress.
These positions were very important, but compared to the entire Howington Group, they were still very few. The problem with Yurisses and Dabinett was that both of them were greedy and wanted more, but none of them could convince anyone. Therefore, this issue could only be put aside for the time being.
However, as the situation became clearer, Yurisses believed that these differences would not be a problem. If not, Yurisses did not mind taking a small step back in order to have a more comfortable environment.
After dividing up all of this, the internal strife in the United States was basically over. He and Dabinett would devote all of their attention to the war. Although the current United States suffered heavy losses, the reunited United States would also be so powerful that it would cause people to tremble.
A brighter future lies in the aftermath of the war.
"Yes, a better future, Mr. President. Cheers to the future."
Dabinett raised the glass in his hand and his smile became even more relaxed.
Yurisses smiled and clenched his glass with Dabinett. He looked at his watch and said, "General Thornton should be ready to go now."
Lieutenant General Thornton Maris, Commander of the Silver State Hurricane Corps, was also the spokesperson for Dabinett in the four southwestern states. The Dabinett Group's people in the four southwestern states were basically led by Lieutenant General Thornton Maris.
The status of the Hurricane Corps in the New Silver State was roughly the same as that of the Third Field Corps in Lonemoon State. It was also one of the main corps of the United States, with a total of 23,000 men. They could be considered elites.
The Hurricane Corps was also mobilized under the War Mobilization Order, The moment they received the mobilization order, the Hurricane Corps also started to move. However, their base was in the northernmost part of the New Silver Nation . In addition, Thornton and Scana were not on the same side, and their march was also slow. That was why the Hurricane Corps had just entered Lonely State when the counterattack in Dark Town broke out.
This was naturally the result of deliberate arrangements.
Dabinett and Yurisses had been waiting for the moment when Scana and the drug dealers of Dark Town were both injured. In their analysis, even if Dark Town could withstand the second counterattack, the losses would be extremely heavy. At that time, it would only leave 10,000 to 20,000 loose soldiers behind.
At that time, the war was over, and it had exceeded the time limit of 24 hours. At that time, it would be easy for Thornton to directly enter the arena and bring the Hurricane Corps back to Dark Town.
With the location of the Hurricane Corps now, Yurisses estimated that Thornton should have made his move.
"Yes. Fifteen minutes ago, Thornton reported to me. He is ready to leave."
Dabini nodded. He didn't spend much effort trying to get Thornton to do the job of taking back Dark Town, Yurisses's influence in the four southwestern states was mainly concentrated in politics, and the military's influence was very weak. Thornton was the only person who could bring the Hurricane Legion back to Dark Town. This could be said to be the consensus reached by the two of them at the fastest possible speed.
"Very good."
Yurisses nodded in satisfaction, "How is Dark Town? Have you received any news?"
"No."
Dabinett shook his head. He frowned slightly. Immediately after, she opened her mouth and said, "However, it doesn't matter anymore. It has been more than 24 hours now, but the news hasn't spread yet. This proves that Scana and Teglas have failed. However, Scana's military talent is not bad. With his command, the drug dealers in Dark Town will definitely not be able to relax. Both of them will be injured. This is the greatest possibility."
Yurisses nodded and said no more.
The two of them fell silent almost at the same time.
Dabinett's eyes flickered as he thought of his missing chief think tank, Elvin.
Erwin was now in Scana's hands. This was something he would save no matter what, because Erwin's existence directly affected one-third of the Dabinett Group's strength. This was the backbone of the Dabinett Group, and it was even more important than half of the Howington Group's strength.
So he had to make some compromises with Scana.
Dabinett drank a mouthful of wine silently. He thought of the bargaining chips he was prepared to take out to compromise, and looked at Yurisses quietly.
The other party wanted the same thing as him. He wanted the Huo Wenton Group to disappear. In such a situation, he didn't know if the other party would agree to keep Scana alive.
He wanted to compromise with Scana, but he also wanted to compromise with Yurisses.
Upon realizing this, Dabinett's mood instantly darkened. He was certain that if Yurisses agreed to keep Dabinett, there would definitely be one less important position in the Howington Group.
Is it the position of governor of Golden State?
Or the Marine Corps?
Dabinett rubbed the glass in his hand and had a headache.
In the silent atmosphere, Yurisses's phone suddenly rang.
Yurisses raised his eyebrows. Without hesitation, he grabbed his phone and suppressed his excitement. He picked up the phone and asked in a low voice, "Is there any news from Dark Town?"
"No, it's not... Mr. President."
The secretary on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously.
"What is that?!"
Yurisses lowered his voice. There was already a trace of anger in his tone. He had always been very satisfied with his secretary. However, the other party had clearly not done a good job. At this time, the Dark Town incident was almost the first thing in his heart. Now that his expectations had failed, his disappointment immediately turned into anger.
"It's Marshal. Marshal Earlaen is awake."
The secretary said carefully.
"What?!"
Yurisses stood up in surprise. "Marshal Earlaen is awake? Alright, Senator Dabinett and I will be there soon."
As he put down the phone, Dabinett stood up from his seat.
"Let's go to the hospital."
Yurisses didn't waste any words, he picked up his coat and rushed out of the door.
The awakening of Earlaen was equivalent to the revival of America's super combat strength. Yurisses and Dabinett had to pay attention to this point alone.
Moreover, Earlaen's awakening wasn't that simple.
From Catu's mouth, they were certain that Atlas could also find allies.
Atlas allies!
This was the most important thing for Yurisses and Dabinett.
