Twenty Seven Years Chapter 306

  Chapter 306 Preparing the Factory

   Benson wanted to wait until he went back and forged a letter: "Don't bother, we'll just go back and get it later."

   "You don't need to run around, tell me where the letter is, and I will personally notify someone to deliver it." Francois didn't want to give them a chance to leave.

   "My letter was burned by me." Jeffrey didn't want to get into danger with Benson, and directly stated that his letter was gone, "His, I don't know."

   "Why burned?" Francois turned to look at Jeffrey.

   "Because this letter is too, too dangerous." Jeffrey bit the bullet and explained.

  Francois smiled even wider: "How dangerous is this letter? Why don't you just show it to me? This is strong evidence to expose that Wilbur Flynn wants to instigate you."

  Benson wanted to kill Jeffrey: "It is estimated that Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey is worried about being discovered by others, causing some misunderstandings, and hindering our further investigation of Wilbur Flynn's details."

   "That's it." Francois was already confident about the fact that the two would turn against each other, "Then what did you and Wilbur Flynn talk about last night?"

   "Actually, we haven't had time to talk about it yet, but it was forced to stop because of the assassination incident in the southern district." Jeffrey noticed Francois' suspicion and hurriedly told the truth to restore trust.

   "You tried your best to meet, and then left without saying a word?" Francois was amused.

  The rhetoric of these two people is really too funny, they just fooled themselves as if they were children. We met, but we didn't talk about anything, and this kind of statement is actually embarrassing.

"It's like this." Benson deeply realized that he and Jeffrey were on the verge of life and death. Their greed led them to danger, and their indecision cut off both the front and back roads. "We made an appointment to meet at ten o'clock. After the meeting, we didn't chat too much. He directly threw out the benefits he could give. He said that as long as we help the parliament to overthrow your rule, the independent mixed editor, Laizein The post of Major General of the Guard Corps can be handed over to us. We wanted to have an in-depth chat at that time to find out his details, but it happened that there was an assassination incident in the southern district, and we had to go there, so the conversation was forced to stop. Because our communication was too short and we failed to get any useful clues, we thought about continuing to meet and report to you when we got the handle. After all, we don't know what cards the people sent by the parliament have. In case your What about people who have them around? Based on this consideration, we decided not to inform you for the time being. I hope you can understand our difficulties and our loyalty to you."

   "Yes, the situation is exactly what Colonel Benson said." Jeffrey felt that Benson was perfect. Even if François still doubted them, it would not have much impact without direct evidence.

"Since you are worried that there are people from the Parliament faction around me, you can report to me directly." François hit the nail on the head, pointing out the omissions in Benson's logic, "Knowing that it is extremely dangerous to contact Wilbur Flynn in private. It may cause a crisis of trust. You still insist on doing this without telling me. This is not something that a thoughtful person can do. However, when you met him, the layout was very careful, and you looked like a smart person... What? How can there be such contradictory behavior?"

  Francois didn't say it clearly, but it has already revealed the truth.

  There is only one possibility for contradictory behaviors, that is, Benson and Jeffrey intended to get in touch with Wilbur Flynn first, and choose whose side to take based on the conditions given.

   It's not what they said, it's just to dig out the details of the Parliamentarian faction.

   "This—" Jeffrey was embarrassed. He knew that the more he said, the more mistakes he would make. At this moment, he could only pin his hopes on Benson.

Benson felt the interrogation and help-seeking gazes focus on him, and when he was extremely nervous, he breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relaxed smile: "Heh, it's been less than twenty-four hours since this incident happened. , you want us to make the most perfect judgment and response, I admit that we can't do it. But things are still moving in a good direction. If it wasn't for the equality meeting that took the lead last night and affected the meeting, maybe it's not your interrogation now We, rather we, are reporting to you the most critical intelligence from the Parliament faction."

   It is an indisputable fact that Francois doubted them.

  It is difficult for them to dispel doubts, but they have no choice, because if they don't try their best to dispel themselves and prove that they are doing this to catch the parliamentarians, Francois will definitely abolish them for safety reasons.

Hearing that Benson was still struggling and showing a grievance, François felt murderous in his heart: "I didn't interrogate you, this was just a simple question about what happened last night. Can you do it?" Do you think I'm offending you by asking this?"

"No, I just think that although we did not have time to report to you, which caused some misunderstandings, it should not destroy our hard work and loyalty." Benson gradually became tougher, trying to make himself He also believes that he is innocent.

   "Then what are you going to do next?" Francois asked.

   "Find a chance to meet with Wilbur Flynn again. If you trust us, give us a chance to wipe out the parliament faction who still plans to resist!" Benson decided to take the initiative to ask for Francois' support.

   "I believe..." Francois murmured to himself, and connected the calls of Joseph and Maguire, who were on standby outside and ready to dispatch to control the two light infantry regiments. "It's time to start, um."

   "Patter." The phone hung up.

  Francois, Benson, and Jeffrey looked at each other quietly.

   After a long while, Benson's shoulders slumped, and the tough illusion he maintained collapsed: "It seems that you still doubt us."

   "You will understand, such a big omission, I have no other choice but to remove you from your post." Francois said regretfully.

   "You already knew about this. You called us here today to test out and give Joseph and the others a chance to control the army, right?" Benson had figured everything out since Francois finished making the phone call.

"That's right." Francois didn't hide it, and it was meaningless for the two of them to know more at this time, "You should also be lucky, no matter whether you have betrayed me or not, we haven't got absolute proof yet. This can keep you in prison for a while."

  Jeffrey has never suffered such humiliation as a nobleman: "I would rather die than go to prison!"

"Actually, even if we find out in the end that we really didn't do anything, we won't be able to come back because our face has been torn." Benson knew about the arrest, and even if Francois didn't find any evidence and released them, they didn't mind. In the end, Francois will still worry about their resentment and put them aside.

   "I can only blame you for being too greedy. You could have achieved success by following my side, but you have to take risks and conspire with the parliamentary faction for the future." Francois has no psychological pressure on ruining their lives.

"Didn't you think about our feelings when you supported Joseph?" The outcome of pretending or not was doomed, Benson's face turned cold and he asked Francois, "Let the dignitaries who support you not be promoted, Instead, they suppressed you... Have you forgotten how you got here today? Have you forgotten who is supporting you? Are you not afraid that you will be alone and helpless in the future?"

"I think the result has already explained everything. If you are slightly dissatisfied with my arrangement, you will choose to betray. Is it necessary for me to continue to reuse you? When questioning, first think about whether you are worthy or not." Franco Wa didn't intend to chat with these two traitors any longer, he clapped his hands, and a group of armed guards walked in, removed everything except clothes from Benson and Jeffrey, handcuffed them with chains, and escorted them to Outside.

"Francois! You are asking for your own death! You will never become the emperor of Brecy!!" Benson, escorted away by the guards, roared angrily as he watched Francois getting further and further away from him. , "Sooner or later! Brisey will be thrown into chaos because of you!"

   "Don't catch me, don't catch me, my father is a Marquis..." Jeffrey's mind went blank, and he followed him out blankly.

   "Oh." Francois felt a moment of fear. When Joseph's confidant was promoted to lieutenant colonel a few days ago, the two men opposed it desperately, and wanted to arrange their own person as the head of the cavalry regiment. If what they wished at that time was true, Joseph and he would both be emptied.

Joseph and Maguire made preparations early on. As soon as they got the news, they immediately split into two groups, leading people along the way to take over Colonel Benson's 7th Light Infantry Regiment, and leading people to take over Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey's 15th Light Infantry Regiment. corps.

   Soldiers in both camps were puzzled by the arrival of the unexpected guest.

And Joseph and Maguire were neat and tidy, showing orders from François in different places at the same time, arresting the cronies of Benson and Jeffrey in the two regiments, and arranging people appointed by Joseph Temporarily acting as an agent at all levels.

  In just half an hour, the independent mixed editor completely changed, from the situation where Joseph's faction and the rich and powerful faction were fighting against each other, to Joseph's sole power.

  In the main station of the Equality Association, the people who got the news had no time to cheer, and just breathed a sigh of relief, they turned around again and started preparing for the work in three aspects.

   On the first aspect, after all the corps of the independent mixed division are controlled by Joseph's cronies, the scale of propaganda carried out by the Equality Association can be expanded.

  Secondly, the independent mixed division is responsible for the defense work of the entire city of Laizein, and the independent mixed division has turned against the Equality Association, and the Equality Association can resume the previously suspended work in Laizein.

   In the third aspect, try to control Laizein.

  Wilbur Flynn House

  Wilbur Flynn, who received the news that Colonel Benson and Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey had been arrested, felt a chill in his heart.

  After dealing with the visiting guard last night, he felt that the situation was not good, but no matter how flustered he was, he never thought that something would happen so soon.

   While secretly scolding Benson and Jeffrey, since they asked him to meet, why didn't they arrange it more carefully, and at the same time, he destroyed the correspondence between them, so as not to be found as evidence of collusion and harm him.

  April 29th

  Benson and Jeffrey couldn't resist the torture and confessed the truth. Soon, the former speaker of the parliament, Wilbur Flynn, was arrested, and the parliamentary faction was under attack again.

  April 30th

During the meeting, Joseph, who had completed the full control of the independent mixing division, suggested to Francois to suspend the daily execution of the arrested members of the Equality Society due to the panic among the people and the crazy revenge of the Equality Society, so as to realize the protection of the Equality Society Counter threats and strike a balance.

  Because of the delay in the execution, François agreed to Joseph's suggestion and decided to follow Joseph's policy to deal with the Equal Society, which he called "a threat comparable to a country".

  May 3rd

  In the apartment room of the General Station of the Equality Society, Verac burst into cheers.

  He finally finished researching "The Theory of Classes"!

   Looking at the "Theory of Classes" and the two thick notebooks on the table that had been flipped through countless times, Verak wept with joy.

  After the research, it means that the Equality Association can set up a pilot factory in accordance with the "Class Theory" to explore the future direction, and it can start to do it. And just right, the problem solved by the independent blender made it easier to set up a pilot factory.

  May 5th

  With the suspension of the execution, the assassination work of the Equality Association also came to an end, and Lei Zeyin temporarily restored a certain amount of tranquility on the surface.

  The Equality Society is no longer aggressive, and Francois can devote more energy to restoring the monarchy and preparing for the expedition. The pressure exerted by the government has dropped sharply, and the development speed of the Equality Association has also increased rapidly.

  Both sides want to solve each other immediately, but at the same time, they know that this is impossible, so they try their best to develop in the delicate balance that is difficult to achieve, and strive to solve their other problems first, and then concentrate on killing each other.

After two days of in-depth discussions with Winston, the two decided to buy a factory in Kip, the closest city to Laizein, to start a cotton spinning factory, to reform the system according to their theories, to run the factory, and to see if they oppressed the workers. In the case of solving problems for them, can they work together to create greater value than other factories that squeeze workers.

  The training of teachers at Keating's school is on the right track, and it can be put into use in as little as half a month or as long as a month, and then learn together with the students in teaching to truly master the teaching ability.

   Therefore, the establishment of club schools is imminent.

  Villac and Keating hit it off during dinner and decided to go to Kip City together to select a site for a club school and a factory. On the one hand, they will train and send talents for the Equality Association, and on the other hand, they will clear the fog for the Equality Association to see the way forward.

  After the two applied with Boyne, they received strong support from Boyne.

  Boin asked the sub-station in Kipp City to put down other work in hand, and first try his best to help the two to do the work of the club school and the pilot factory. If there is anything beyond the capacity of the sub-station, he will arrange support here.

  The next day, that is, May 6th.

Early in the morning, Verac, Keating, Winston, Nord, Murphy, the principals of the club school and the pilot factory packed their luggage, and left Lai together under the **** of Boyne, Morais and others. Zein went to Kip City, which is less than a day's journey away, to do two decisive things for the development of the Equality Association to be more stable and go further.
