With Houston secured thanks to the counter attacks surprise, the American forces in Texas launch a blitzkrieg to link with the besieged army groups in the southwest. River boats operating on the rio grande rush to re supply those in the pocket, also carrying orders from Admiral Guy:

"the fight is not over. We all must fight to the last tank, the last tank, the last bullet; I will do the same."

Meanwhile, an iron dome-like defensive grid is established using Horizon class arsenal ships (picture of which is on the U.S. navy page, FYI) linked into the radar stations around the pockets perimeter, capable of engaging anything larger than a heavy bomber with hypersonic-capable kinetic heavy missiles.

From an unknown location, relayed through two dozen different towers to throw off tracking the signal, Admiral Guy calls for a cease-fire.
