Twenty Seven Years Chapter 260

  Chapter 260 Firing the first shot

   "They also miss you very much, especially Nord. Now they have learned Welland by themselves, thinking that they will come out to make a living when they have the ability." Boyne said.

   "Has he already learned Wellandish?" Verak was extremely surprised. After the surprise, he admired Nord's efforts and heartfelt joy.

  Byne noticed the change in Veraker's expression: "He also asked me in particular, after I tell you this, carefully observe your reaction, and report it to him when you go back."

  Verak couldn't laugh or cry: "This kid..."

"Okay, let's talk about business." After a while of pleasantries, Boin, who was still hot on his buttocks, talked about the most important thing at the moment, the abolition of the new conscription law. They are reporting to me, but they are still not as familiar as you guys, I hope to listen to you explain the ins and outs in detail again."

"Then let me tell the story." Verac, who was 'proficient' in telling others about his experience, took the initiative to say, "Everyone here is my own, so I won't hide or delete anything. Teacher Keating and I have just arrived. After Dunman, I went to the Quinn Tavern to test it out, and later found that the situation was more complicated, so we came up with two plans to deal with it..."

  Verak told Boyne in detail the process of getting gold, going to the settler's territory, knowing the imminent crisis, and deciding to help fire Dunman's first shot.

   It took about ten minutes, and Boyin quickly digested it after hearing it: "Is everything almost ready during this time?"

   "Basically the preparations are completed, and the weapons are waiting to be placed properly, and they can be called at any time during the struggle." Keating said as the person in charge.

   "I heard that the Dunmanian version of Equality, The Internationale, Women's Declaration and other books are spreading here very quickly, and the results are not bad?"

"Yes, Dunman has not long ended the civil war, and it is still relatively chaotic. The government is facing many contradictions, so it does not focus on guarding against us." Verak replied, "In addition, people like Monroe who are infected by the idea of ​​equality , It has greatly helped to promote the dissemination of books and people's understanding, which makes the effect remarkable, exceeding our expectations."

   Monroe was a little shy, and smiled at Boyin.

   "I read the news on the ship before. You are very far-sighted and have paid a lot. I believe that the final harvest will not disappoint us." Boyne said to Monroe.

   "I believe it too." Monroe replied politely.

"Don't be so restrained." Boin looked at Boss Xin and Willow who helped keep the gold secret, "Thank you also for insisting on yourself in the face of such a huge temptation of gold, and for your trust in the Equality Association and your willingness to cooperate with us. Working together to change Dunman."

   Boss Xin nodded slightly.

  Willow stuttered because he was too nervous: "No, it's nothing, it's all, it's all agreed."

"Since we are almost ready in all aspects, we can start operations after the weapons are in place." Boyne, Keating, Verac, Sarah, and Eve said, "Counting the sub-station and I brought , We have more than one hundred people this time, and the weapons can not only meet our needs, but also be equipped for two hundred people."

   "Yes." Verac and Keating both nodded.

  Boss Xin interjected: "Let me ask a question, these weapons are indeed quite a lot, but can three hundred guns defeat the government?"

"If you mean fighting, you mean that we want to overthrow the Dunman government and establish a new regime, then ten or a hundred times more will not be enough. If you mean the abolition of the new conscription law, it should be enough. .” Boyne said.

"To be honest, I don't really understand. Didn't you mean head-to-head is inevitable? We can't beat them head-on, so how can we force them to cancel the new conscription law?" Boss Xin has heard Keating and Veraker say a lot during this period. They wanted to fight tough battles to force the government to cancel the new conscription law, so they felt conflicted when they learned that force was not strong enough to confront the government head-on.

   "Because we have more than these 300 guns." Keating continued with Boyne's words to answer his doubts, "We also have countless people."

  Boss Xin has experienced some things, and knows how scary it would be for so many people to stand up: "It's hard to get so many people to stand up."

"So these 300 guns, and the more than 100 comrades of the Equality Society present here, are rushing to confront the government for the first time to build up everyone's confidence." Verak also replied, "Three hundred guns It won't turn things around, but three hundred guns will mobilize the people who can turn things around."

   "Okay..." Boss Xin lost his doubts.

   "The weapons can be processed in a day or two, that is, we can act on March 6 at the earliest." Sara estimated how long it would take for the shipped weapons to be ready for use.

  Byne said "hmm": "There is no need to procrastinate, let's start working immediately, and set the time to act on the night of March 6th."

   "I'll do it." Eve took the task.

  Villac and Keating are still here, purely to help fire the first shot smoothly, so they do not have the real power to control the sub-station, and the actual power of these placements is still resolved by the person in charge of the sub-station.

"Then I'll go back and inform Lao Jin and Ruffalo, and make corresponding preparations." Time is short, and Monroe also knows that Boyin and the others will definitely have more private things to talk about, so after Ive left, Monroe logically Also follow out.

   Boss Xin didn't stay long: "I'll go and talk to those people too."

   Under Boyne's quick arrangement, he, Keating, and Veraker were the only ones left in the darkroom of the tavern that was converted into a conference room.

"When I sent you away from Laizein, I knew that you would definitely get things done, and maybe there would be some unexpected surprises." After there were fewer people, Boyin became more relaxed and natural, " In the end, as expected, the matter of gold was successfully completed, and you also helped to establish the Dunman sub-station and prepared for the first shot abroad."

   "Know us so well." Verak himself didn't expect so many things to happen.

"I can be regarded as seeing you all the way. You rescued me from the government building twice, and I was imprisoned in Daymans Prison. You can lead the prisoners to escape collectively. You always bring everyone surprises and hopes. So I have no doubts about your and Keating's abilities." Boyne said.

  Verak was very emotional when he heard it: "Have you been rescued twice..."

  The first time he came to his senses, he began to face the pursuit that was gradually rising in his heart, gave up the hope of life, and let Boyin out.

  The second time, he was already a core member of the Equality Society, and played a decisive role in the plan to attack the government building. Finally, he and Morais rushed in under the hail of bullets and rescued Boyne.

   "Yeah, I owe you two lives." Boyin joked.

   "There is nothing owed or owed, this is my compensation and redemption." Verac didn't feel that he had done this, and Boin really owed himself something.

Boyin heard what Verac referred to as compensation and redemption. He was probably talking about Colin. He was afraid of the atmosphere being sad, so he changed the subject: "I'm here this time. Just go to Pullman, go to Winston."

"If all goes well, we should be able to see him before the end of the month." Keating secretly sighed in his heart. After all, this era belongs to young people. More and more young people are shining brightly and doing things that can change history. great cause.

   "What's the situation with that Winston?" Verac didn't know enough, and was about to ask Boyne.

"He, Charles has found relatively limited information at the moment." It is said that it is limited, but it must be more than half a month's information. Boin shared what he knew with Verac and Keating "This Winston's family is not bad. His parents intend to train him to be a lawyer, but he probably isn't interested in these things. He has been pursuing philosophy and history throughout his schooling career, and later became the editor-in-chief of a major newspaper. "

  Verak listened carefully, wondering what was so special about this person.

"But the environment in Pluman is very bad. The king persecutes liberal democrats, and the social situation is very severe. Because of the tragic situation of the people, he has repeatedly expressed his views in newspapers and criticized them. After that, he left the newspaper under pressure. , continued to study these things in depth with the help of friends. The Internationale should have been born during this period, and it was passed to Chris by chance. After that, the influence of his writing became more and more powerful, and he was hunted down as expected On weekdays, he hides in a hut in the suburbs. It is precisely because of this that our people have spent a long time finding his whereabouts. But we haven't disturbed him yet. Wait for us to visit the door in person, and then tell him about our intentions. .”

   "That's fine, if you make a fuss, I'm afraid it will arouse his vigilance, and it will be troublesome if something else happens." Verak agreed with Boyin's move of not alerting the other party.

   "We are still too weak on Pluman's side, and the help we can provide to Winston is very limited. When we pass by, we need to be extremely cautious in our actions to avoid any mistakes." Keating reminded.

Boyne was also aware of this: "Since Pruman's environment is not good, I want to try to bring Winston to Brisey, let him see what our Equality Association has been doing for more than two years. .”

   "It would be great if he agreed." Verac naturally had no objection to people like Winston coming to the Equal Council to stay here.

"It has been almost a year since Comrades Chris and Francis wrote the theory of equality. During this year, we have absorbed the things of the theory of equality and established a line of struggle to the end, but we have still stagnated for too long in terms of theoretical knowledge. I hope Winston can solve our urgent needs." Boyne put the notebook he carried with him on the table, "When I was under house arrest in the government building, I was trying to perfect the theory of equality, and I didn't have any problems during the time I came out." Stop, when I see Winston, I will have a good conversation with him. See if he has any higher insights, and let him see the crystallization of our equal society."

Verac remembered that when he was in prison, Mr. Keating and Mr. Keating also added something new based on the original version of "Theory of Equality": "It seems that everyone is opening up a changeable and infinite theory through the half-fixed theory of equality." The second half."

"Yeah." Boyin stared at the "New Theory of Equality" written by himself, and the things Winston wrote a year or two ago were still leading them, "How do we change... I think We've got an answer soon."

  March 6th

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, Boyne had been in the Old South for two days. Comrade Yves worked hard day and night to complete the equipment. Verac and Keating also ran among the immigrants and the locals respectively. , making sure everyone is in place.

  At night, Boyne took Sarah, Eve, and a hundred armed members of the Equality Society on standby to sit in the tavern. Veraker came to Manchester City to join Monroe, and Keating and Boss Xin joined them to assist them in their operations.

At eight o'clock in the evening, with the secret support of many parties, most of the factories that had been running continuously shut down. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of workers ignored the warnings and curses of the factory owners, and left their jobs one after another. On the streets, tacitly shouted and demanded that the government abolish the "New Conscription Law".

  The newspapers flying all over the Old South were printed with a big "0" - that is the number of casualties of the nobles on the battlefield.

  Government agencies established in various parts of the block were also burned on a large scale.

   Gradually, not only workers, people from all walks of life, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, or background, stood up and called for the abolition of the "New Conscription Law".

  The sound spread through one street after another, and the flames made the old Nanyue at night as bright as day.

  Sudden changes have made factories dead, shops are empty, stations and ports have stopped operating. Driven by the Equality Association, more and more people choose to go out of their homes and unite for legitimate rights and interests.

The guards from all over the country tried to suppress this massive riot, but a few or a dozen people were so vulnerable in the face of the torrent. Their warning voices were drowned out by the appeals of the people, and the guns they held were trembling with fear. Underneath it became a fire stick.

   "Equality between people, between life and life!"

  Those who had read "Theory of Equality" shouted the contents of the book under the outrage.

   "We want our rights back!"

  The streets and squares were crowded with people.

   "Please repeal the new conscription law immediately!"

  The following is written to everyone who is reading this book, regardless of the original or pirated version.

  I will explain it again to everyone very seriously. The title of the book is very simple. I didn't play any tricks here. Originally, it was intended to be called Seventeen Years or Twenty-One Years, but they were all taken up.

I didn't want to do anything big or grand in this book. My original intention was really simple. I wanted to write about a group of great people, people who I need to look up to, and a group of people who are stupid and very stupid. Persistence, very naive, very brave and brave people.

  Thank you for liking this book, thank you.

  I love you, I love my career, I love this world.

  I wish you all peace, prosperity, health and longevity.
