Chapter 365: The Only Light in the Dark American Land
One country, four regimes.

When the real Captain America of this universe, Steve Rogers, raised the flag of rebellion in Texas and officially re-established the sign of the "Lone Star Republic", there were four independent regimes in the United States.

They are the Eastern Confederation, which only covers a few states east of the Appalachian Mountains but claims to be the orthodox "United States of America";

the "Indian Republic" entrenched in the northwestern states of Washington and Oregon;
The "Southwestern Federation," which has its base in the southwestern states of California, Arizona, and New Mexico and has invaded Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arkansas;
And the "Lone Star Republic" that has just occupied Houston and is facing a counterattack from remnant forces in Texas.

As for other states, they were all in a wait-and-see state.

Some, such as Florida, pulled together Georgia and Alabama to form the "Florida Confederation", which was very independent, but did not ultimately abandon the sign of the United States of America and raise a new flag.

Some states have only set up "local mutual protection" organizations, treating the two major civil war forces in the east and the west equally, wavering and belonging to the type of "not releasing the eagle until seeing the rabbit".

Unfortunately, this situation was broken as America was blockaded.

The foundation of any organization is people.

When people's hearts were in turmoil and riots were everywhere, the original social order was bound to be broken. The "Lone Star Republic" that rose up took advantage of the situation and gave many ambitious guys in the United States a successful demonstration, further aggravating the chaotic situation in the United States.

However, the ambitious people who lack extraordinary combat power and ideological armament can only come up with traditional American ways such as gangs and cults. Apart from making the situation more chaotic, they are of no benefit to the lower-class civilians. Instead, they highlight the preciousness of the "Lone Star Republic".

……

After taking Houston, Captain True organized his men to build a defense line outside the city, waiting for a counterattack from other parts of Texas.

But what he didn't expect was that the counterattack force was not strong enough at all. Not only were there not enough people, but they were also slow in action.

America was blockaded, and the consortium bosses who had fled the country were unable to contact those who stayed behind. The people who stayed behind did not have enough authority or prestige to integrate the various factions and form an efficient leadership body.

Before the masters retreated, they had already established a system of checks and balances for those who stayed behind to ensure that no one person could dominate alone. All major strategic matters must be reported to the masters for approval, otherwise how could the masters dare to move on?
In addition, after the blockade was exposed, even the enforcement personnel themselves began to have their own concerns, further reducing the efficiency of the government's response.

You can only exert 30% of your full strength.

Captain Zhen personally took action and quickly defeated a few "Returning Home Groups" and 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 in and outside the city, eliminate the rentier class, and mobilize the people to resume production.

Secondly, select young and middle-aged men of clean background to receive military training and organize a new army.

Finally, intellectuals from the grassroots were selected to form a new management body.

Through these three-pronged approach, Houston not only restored production and living order, but also demonstrated unparalleled vitality.

After recognizing the reality of the blockade of the United States, everyone knows that food, water, energy and other living materials are the most valuable things in the future. In countries controlled by capitalism, most production activities are only for the pursuit of profits. More than half of the wealth created by workers is taken away by capitalists for squandering and maintaining their own enjoyment. Only a part will continue to be invested in social reproduction in order to continue to pursue profits.

This model has a fatal flaw in today’s blocked America, because workers facing life-and-death crises are no longer willing to accept exploitation by capitalists.

In the past when the order was stable, there was no choice but to accept exploitation if you wanted to survive. Now, in an environment where you can die at any time, why should you still watch most of the fruits of your labor being exploited? Why should you be willing to watch the capitalists who don’t work still enjoy the luxury brought by exploitation?
The capitalists also did not believe that the poor would work honestly and continue to create wealth for them, so they simply hoarded large amounts of supplies and munitions and hid in their manors which were built like fortresses.

Without the previous leaders to organize, there is no way production order can be restored.

Riots were frequent in other parts of the United States, and the production order was destroyed, further exacerbating the shortage of daily necessities. Various powerful organizations stepped up their pace of plundering supplies, causing the difficulty of survival for civilians to rise sharply.

At this time, the "Lone Star Republic" became the only shining star in the darkness of America and the most handsome guy on this earth!
"My fellow Americans, my name is Steve Rogers, and I once had a title: Captain America..."

After putting into practice what he had learned in the past three years in Houston, Captain Zhen saw a brand new city and a completely different world.

This gave him even stronger confidence in his grand goal of changing America.

This confidence made him believe that he was on the right path and that he could bring a new world to his fellow Americans.

Now that we have succeeded, of course we want more Americans to enjoy the fruits of this success.

So he immediately used the remaining local television network to give a live speech.

"I think everyone knows what happened in America. Yes, America was blocked by a mysterious membrane..."

"We can't escape, but we can't despair. We should save ourselves with our own strength!"

"I am in Houston now. I led the rebels to overthrow the Texas authorities a few days ago. Now I have restored the production and living order in Houston..."

The scene turns to the streets of Houston, which are crowded with people, but unlike in other cities where there are no demonstrations or violent acts, people are instead carrying out various activities under the leadership of new government officials.

Cleaning up urban garbage, repairing previously damaged streets and buildings... There is no anger, anxiety or panic on people's faces. Instead, they are full of hope and have a high spirit.

"My fellow countrymen, if you have lost food and water, if survival is difficult, please find a way to come to Houston. We have prepared job opportunities for you here, and we have prepared enough food and water..."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Fake! It's all fake!"

“These people on the street are not real people at all!”

Seeing the prosperous scene in Houston after the flag was changed, while their city was in endless turmoil, America's "eagles" were unsurprisingly furious.

Are you kidding me?
How can the great capitalism and the great America be inferior to the red color that they have already wiped out?
