Eleven days had passed since the day of the revolution, and Kassi Lonergan felt as if he was still standing in the thick of the night, clutching the knife that had been stabbed in the policeman's chest. Until now, he didn't know the name of the policeman he stabbed to death and what the story was.

He didn't have much time to think about these and indifferent things. The process of capturing Revadren was too smooth, and it went smoothly made him a little suspicious of reality. And then there were too many and too many things to follow, and it was too much and too complicated for him, a leader with no actual revolutionary experience, to be in a hurry. From defense to law and order, from food to money, everything depends on his decisions, and all his decisions will determine the direction of this small revolutionary contingent to a certain extent.

"Let's talk about it, it's already like this, we have to find out who did it!" Tara and Hansen, workers at the Chisha Foundry and deputy to the Rovaderen rebels, slapped the table with a sigh of relief. Opposite him were Yarrow Lynch, the leader of the Textile Mill Workers' Force, Cassie Lonergan, the general leader of the uprising, and Yarrow Lynch's deputy, Chip Shaunal.

In the large conference room of the Rawaderen City Hall, an unexpected meeting is underway. From the day after the revolution, the city was in chaos. The police were wiped out and the criminals were sent to heaven, robbed, raped, killed, and the whole city was filled with terrible wails and screams. Cassie Lonergan and his companions dealt with it severely as soon as they got the news, and they arrested and killed a group of people, which can be regarded as stifling the momentum of this crime. But no matter how swift their reaction was, the damage caused by those outlaws had already been done, and the follow-up finishing touches continued until the 11th day after the revolution began.

"How do you find this? Now the team is more than 5,000 people, looking for a dozen people from here? Is there still a war or not? ”

Yarrow Lynch's deputy, Chip Shaunal, did not support the decision to investigate thoroughly. Even if those hateful rapists had been proven to come from this nascent revolutionary ranks, in the eyes of Chip Shaunal, it was obviously foolish to stop the current preparations because of a dozen men.

"Chip Shaunal!" Taraji's voice was even higher, "You always obstruct the investigation, do you have something to do with those people??" ”

"There's a fart relationship", Chip was also angry, "Now the army of Fort Piller is already on its way over, a full five thousand, regular army!" In three days, five days at most, and we'll have to fight these people! If we win this battle, we will be able to gain a firm foothold in Revadren! If you lose, everyone will go to the gallows together! At a time like this, you still have to worry about how many rapists there are!? Aren't you afraid of delaying your training? Affected the battle?! ”

"I add," interjected Yarrow Lynch, the leader of the textile mill workers, "and I am in favour of the immediate death penalty and hanging of the rapists as an example." But now the situation is special, and we have already arrested all the rapists who could be caught before. Those who should be killed are also killed, and the remaining batch is said to be within our army, and if this is investigated, it will be troublesome. It is time-consuming and affects the cohesion of the troops. I think this needs to be done, but we can't rush it. First deal with the enemy of the 5,000 people in Fort Piller, and then win, and then check slowly, and if you lose, it doesn't matter, right? We can't just check these dozen people and give away Evadron and the fledgling communist cause to the enemy, right? ”

"I don't understand, how can investigating a few rapists affect the war?" , Tara and still have that burning temper, "Those people in the city now keep saying that we want to have a communist wife!" People are panicking, if we don't even have the support of the citizens, how can we fight? ”

"The support of the citizens? Those bourgeois burghers are the ones we should exterminate! Chip Schonal is more radical in some ways, "If we want to build a thoroughly communist system, we must eliminate these petty bourgeoisie." They are not our comrades-in-arms, and we do not need their support. These people should be exterminated, their property should be confiscated, redistributed and distributed to the vast majority of the poor working class! ”

"This ......"

Although they are both communists, they have different understandings of the theory and the way to realize communism. In normal times, this is not a big deal. Through continuous study and discussion, everyone can eliminate differences and unify their understanding. But in wartime, this disagreement can become a fatal difference, which can lead to the division and destruction of the team at any time.

Cassie Lonergan could faintly see this terrible prospect, so he worked hard to maintain the basic unity and unity of everyone, consciously or unconsciously. Seeing that everyone was again arguing about how to deal with the petty bourgeois problems in the city, he took the floor in time to interrupt the discussion, which was destined to be fruitless.

"How to deal with the petty bourgeoisie, let's wait until we have won the army at Fort Piller, these petty bourgeoisie will not run anyway. Even if they run away, their houses and money won't run, and when it's time for us to divide them, we can easily divide them. For now, let's focus on how to deal with this group of rapists. ”

Hearing Cassie Lonergan speak, the room fell silent. As the former vice-president of the Coalition of Trade Unions and the earliest promoter of communism, he was still influential among all of you. Cassie Lonergan waited for a while, saw that there was no disagreement, and began to express his thoughts.

"My idea is very simple, this matter needs to be investigated, and it must be investigated immediately and thoroughly. Although those petty bourgeoisie are not necessarily our comrades-in-arms, but the women who have been violated, as well as the wives and daughters of our workers' families, if it were you, and your wives and daughters have been violated by some of our troops, do you not want to kill those who have violated them at once? If we find a reason to drag on and delay the process, will you still support such a team? ”

"But now it's about to go to war......"

Chip Shaunal was still struggling, but even he was much quieter.

"War is about to start, but just because there is about to be a war, we can't let these filthy people and filthy things continue to exist in our ranks! Even if this battle is won, there are still more garrisons in Fort Piller, what should we do? Wait until you win these garrisons, and then clean up these scum? Or will you wait until you win the garrison at Fort Piller, the garrison in the province of Solon, all the armies of the entire Third Republic of Fern, overthrow the Aziva regime, and then liquidate these outlaws? If it were you, would you be willing to wait until that time? ”

The room was even more silent. Chip Shaunal looked at Yarrow Rose, who shook his head at him, and Chip blinked and fell silent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first time I have done this to start a revolution, and I have no experience. Many things are not written in the book "On Capital", and they are not written in detail in "Fluorite". In this case, we can only do it according to our inner thoughts, according to our feelings. I don't know the big thing, but I know a simple thing. If you were to do something, imagine yourself as a citizen, a citizen, or a victim affected by that event, and would you be willing to accept your own proposal? If you can, then do it, if it doesn't work, then don't do it, that's my idea. ”

Cassie Lonergan said a lot in one breath. So much so that he was surprised by his own. Originally, when he was with Caber Luya, he was more of a follower than a leader. What he needs to do is execute, speak out at the right time, not lead the team forward. Now, to be able to bring a revolutionary contingent to the present and to make everyone obey his own orders made Cassie Lonergan a little frightened and a little trembling. Even in dealing with such a small matter as a rapist, Cassie Lonergan actually doesn't have much confidence in his heart. He just said his thoughts and judging criteria, hoping to get everyone's support. If you support it, that's the best. If people don't support it, he doesn't know what to do next.

"Chairman Cassie is right!" Tara and Hansen didn't know what was going on in Cassie Lonergan's heart, he only heard Cassie's words, and he agreed with Cassie's words, "We don't just fight. If the revolution is to win, we must not stop fighting. But if we keep fighting, then we won't deal with these lawbreakers, these scumbags? If we don't deal with these scumbags, how can our team win? Therefore, it should be dealt with quickly and strictly! ”

"Lynch, what do you think?"

Cassie Lonergan threw the problem to Lynch. The composition of the revolutionary contingent was now relatively simple, consisting mainly of workers in the Chisha foundries and textile mills. Foundry worker, he was basically able to decide. The workers in the textile mills had to listen to Yarrow Lynch.

"You're right, just check it, it's all for the victory of the revolution, isn't it?"

Yarrow Lynch didn't insist. Chip Shaunal saw that he no longer insisted, and therefore no longer raised objections. The top brass of this small revolutionary contingent agreed on how to deal with rapists and robbers in the army.

"Alright," Tara patted the table, "Let's talk about it now, how do we fight the next battle?" ”

————————————

Three days later, 3,700 soldiers of the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Army of the 25th Army of the Third Republic of Fern from Fort Piller, stationed in the province of Solon, arrived on the outskirts of the small town of Evadelen and saw the rebels waiting for them.

The rebel army, the communist army, the rebel army, the outside world has different names for this team. But in the eyes of Viola Howard, commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 2nd Army in Solorne Province, they were nothing more than a rabble.

"Brigade commander, I have already seen the enemy, how to fight?"

David Reynolds, the operational staff officer of the 1st Brigade, began to ask for instructions after clarifying the enemy's position. Viola Howard looked at the enemy on the other side and saw that they didn't even have a uniform uniform. Some of those enemies were dressed in workers' uniforms, some in police uniforms, and some were even just dressed in their usual clothes, which looked like a mass of scum from a distance.

"Platoon gun tactics, march in formation!"

Dealing with this untrained rabble, Viola doesn't feel like she needs much attention. After three rows of guns in the platoon gun tactic, the enemy will definitely suffer heavy casualties. Moreover, looking at the current state of the enemy's organization, it may collapse directly and scatter and flee. At that time, the credit for quelling the first communist rebellion in the country will be credited to his name.

"Why are you still stunned, go quickly!"

Inspired by the future she imagined, Viola found her combat staff officer still standing beside her, and she couldn't help but feel a nameless fire. Are you standing still trying to thwart me from getting credit?

"No, my lord", David Reynolds noticed that Viola's mood was not right, "how do we set up?" How many regiments fought in the front battle? ”

"The first regiment and the second regiment are advancing side by side, and the third regiment is in reserve, go quickly, start!"

At Viola's urging, the 1st Brigade, which had just arrived on the outskirts of Revaderen, quickly entered combat mode. They laid out a neat platoon of guns and began to follow the drum beat towards the enemy. And the rabble on the opposite side, who didn't even have military uniforms, also began to line up, and even put on a twisted and crooked gun formation that was exactly the same as their own.

"Hey, they really dare to learn!"

Viola Howard was a little surprised to see the enemy's response, and he turned his head sideways and ordered David Reynolds, "Go and ask the front, how is the enemy's weaponry?" ”

In this position of Viola, he could not see the details of the enemy's equipment. If more intelligence is needed, timely feedback from soldiers on the front line is needed. Whether it was the Third Republic, or the armies of other republics. He was familiar with this set of procedures, and after a while, the information that Viola wanted came back.

"About half of them have guns."

"What about the others?"

"Knives."

"Hah!"

Viola let out an exaggerated laugh, "Do you want to fight like this?" ”

"I guess it's a young person who hasn't fought on the other side, right?"

David Reynolds' mentality was also a little lighter, and he began to despise the equipment on the other side along with Viola. And while the two were chatting, the troops of both sides had already entered the range of engagement.

"Bang bang bang-"

Platoon guns of the 1st brigade began to sound, and the sound was neat and beautiful. At the same time, there was also a sparse sound of gunfire on the opposite side, not only chaotic, but also inconsistent sounds, obviously from different weapons. After the first volley of guns on both sides, the soldiers on the opposite side fell one piece, while their own side was mostly intact.

"Alright, let's win!"

"Definitely win!"

Viola and David came to the same conclusion at the same time. In the midst of their education, there was such a huge difference in battle damage, and the commander on the opposite side had only one choice but to flee but to surrender. Whatever he chosen, the 1st Brigade would have won the war without much effort.

However, things went beyond the two of them could have imagined. After two rounds of platoon guns, the opposite side also found that the casualties caused by the platoon gun tactics were too great. They responded with little hesitation.

Everyone, all the rest of them on the other side, armed with scimitars, long knives, scythes, and all sorts of steam rifles, charged at the enemies lined up in front of them.

"They...... Crazy? ”

Viola opened her mouth and muttered to herself as she looked at the fallen enemies who had fallen under the sound of her own gunfire, and at those who had fallen behind the corpses and continued to charge. As far as his line of sight could see, the distance between the two armies rapidly narrowed with this decisive charge, and finally became a mess.

"It's ......"

David Reynolds put down the half-drunk Lunding in his hand and also grew his mouth. This battle has been fought until now, and for the first time, the two people have doubts about the outcome of the battle.

Can you win by fighting like this?
