One mile from the outskirts of Dallas, the forces of the Republic of Texas and the NUSA square off. Texans holding the line against the onslaught that the NUSA and Millitech can throw at them. Texan Artillery raining hell down on the incoming tanks. But it isn't enough and if help doesn't arrive soon they will be forced back into the City itself. Fighting is already happening in the Trenches.
"We have to push them out of the trenches otherwise our lines will collapse!" Texan Ranger Clint Jackson said after shooting one NUSA soldier in the face with a shotgun and killing another with a shovel.
"But Sir., we are being overrun." First Sergeant Kate Pines pointed out.
"Brass informed me that allied reinforcements are on their way and to not just push back the enemy but to also push them out of Texas."
"Let's hope that is the case Sir."
"It is, now let's get moving. We need to retake that pill box."
So they ran dodging explosions and avoiding gunfire. Taking out enemies along the way to help the disjointed pockets of troops fighting for their lives so they can get back to preventing more from getting to the trenches. Eventually the two reached the pill box. Ranger Jackson tossed in a smart grenade and after it blew up they went in and killed whoever was still alive.
"Get on that machine gun. I will send some men up here to support you."
"Yes Sir." She said before immediately getting on the gun and checking to see if it was still usable before firing it at the enemy.
The Ranger then grabbed a battle rifle, loaded it and then went out to find whoever was tearing up his men. It didn't take long as the mantis blades were a dead giveaway. So the Ranger started blasting away missing half of his shots due to the speed of the cybernetically enhanced beast. However enough shots landed that when the thing went strike he was able to block with his gun. Ranger Jackson then finished the job with his shovel.
"And that's what you get when you fuck with Texas." He said, however. Even though things were now stabilizing, the battle could still go either way. But then the ground shook and a laser destroyed one of the NUSA's heavy tanks.
"WE WILL NOT FEAR THE RED MENACE!" A giant robot yells as it marches towards the NUSA's forces. Following up behind it are soldiers dressed in Black uniforms with metal armor mixed in.
"This must be our reinforcements. I can see why the brass was vague on who they were now."
