Twenty Seven Years

  Laizein Daily, Editor-in-Chief Office

"General, Captain Akers stationed at the Martyrs Cemetery of the International Equality League asked us for help. He said that a large number of people spontaneously interfered with their mission, and it was difficult for them to maintain order with only two companies. Destruction." A soldier knocked on the door, and after getting permission, he entered the office and reported to General Selt who was sitting at the desk.

   Too lazy to move around frequently, and sent editor-in-chief Byron to supervise the counterattack of public opinion. Selt, who occupied the office by himself, listened to his subordinates, pondered, and looked at the city defense map.

  The news of the International Equality Alliance spread faster than they thought, and the reaction of the people was more intense than they thought.

  At present, riots broke out in many places in Laizein, and limited troops were repeatedly dispatched. It is really difficult to send additional support to the cemetery.

   "Then let them put it aside first, stand by and wait for arrangements." Celt can only deal with other problems first, and then arrange reinforcements after the overall situation improves, so as to promote the implementation of the plan to destroy the cemetery.

   "Yes." The soldier left.

   Immediately afterwards, another person walked in in a hurry.

   "What's wrong?" Celt looked at the officer with glasses who looked flustered.

   "General, Alger just went to Mr. President's office." The officer with glasses said.

   "Alger?" Celt was a little unfamiliar with this name.

   "It's the director of the Laizein intelligence bureau who was personally appointed by the president. It's just that the affairs have been busy during this period. The intelligence bureau has always been an empty shelf and has not officially operated. He is probably relatively free." The glasses officer explained.

  Selter narrowed his eyes: "What is he going to see President Auston for?"

  The glasses officer shook his head: "The eyeliner we placed next to Mr. President is not very clear, but it can be seen that the other party seems to be a little wary of us. I have already sent someone to watch him secretly."

   "Do you suspect that he knew our secret and made a special trip to report to President Auston?"

   "Yes, at this juncture, he went to meet Mr. President in secret, I have to guess like this." The glasses officer was very cautious.

"Very good." Selt praised the vigilance of the spectacled officer, and then thought for a while, "The International Equality League just released news that is not good for us. There is a great possibility that something has been detected, and we should make other preparations besides monitoring him."

   "I was thinking, what would Mr. President do if he found out?" The officer with glasses was worried that the secret would be exposed, and all of them couldn't afford to go around.

   "It depends on how much Alger knows." Celt was also a little uncertain, but he didn't show it.

  They are united by interests, but their relationship is actually not strong enough.

   The more dangerous it is, the more likely it will collapse.

  Based on this, he must hold his breath, not let anyone see the color of panic, and lead this group of people to continue walking.

  Seeing that General Selt has always looked as stable as Mount Tai, the officer with glasses receded a lot of thoughts: "Should we arrest Alger directly? Threats and lures him to stand with us?"

   "It's too risky to do so. Once he pretends to agree, and actually plans to solve our plan secretly with Mr. President, what do you think should be done?" Selt denied this feasibility.

"But if Alger really finds out something, and this time I went to see Mr. President to report news that is not good for us, then we can't do nothing. To ensure safety, we can only start with him." Glasses The officer thought a lot on the way here, and he was sure that drawing Alger to their side was the only way.

"In this way, keep an eye on him first to confirm whether he is investigating us. If this matter is confirmed, then it can also be confirmed that he went to see President Auston to report our problems. After that, we can consider coercion, or Other means let him fall to us, remedy the situation, and work together to get the lie back." Celt ordered.

  The glasses officer frowned and said worriedly: "As long as Mr. President starts to doubt us, many things may not be able to be covered up, right?"

"So, there is a more important thing waiting for us to do." Celt nodded solemnly, "We must wipe out the action team of the Laizeinli International Equality League in the shortest possible time. That's the only way Only in this way can we grasp the initiative as soon as possible, even if President Auston suspects us, we can hide it again."

   "But..." the officer with glasses didn't say anything.

  He regretted it a little.

   Was the self insane some time ago? How dare you engage in such a big scam under the nose of the president?

  Usually you can’t even touch the shadow of the International Equality League Action Team, but now you dare to lie and claim that you have captured thousands of International Equality League members?

  Selter saw the uncontrollable and rapidly spreading despair of the officer with glasses: "You are worried that we will not be able to catch all the members of the action team in a short time, right?"

  The glasses officer bit the bullet and said: "You know this very well...how many members of the International Equality League have we arrested for so long..."

"You think we have nothing to gain? The few members of the International Equality League who were captured alive are the focus of our breakthrough. In addition, the martyrs' cemetery is very important to the International Equality League, and it is impossible for us to be indifferent to it. Besides, Duke Hall’s side, although we have not been able to obtain conclusive evidence, we know that he must be related to the action team.” Celt said several aspects of their progress, adding confidence to the glasses officer , "We don't have a big harvest now, not because we don't want to, but because we are waiting for the best opportunity."

   These glasses officers are not ignorant.

   It's just that he doesn't think these are enough to play a decisive role.

"The few members of the International Equality League who were captured alive were greedy for life and afraid of death. After our torture, they explained a lot, but they knew too little, so far they have not been able to provide us with real valuable information. As for the martyrs' cemetery, there is no There is no need for an action team, and the crowds of people are enough for us to have a headache. The Duke of Hall is even more concerned. The only clue person committed suicide. We have no evidence. Could it be that a noble Duke is tortured?" It is a matter of life and death, and the officer with glasses also Regardless of whether General Selt would feel offended, he bravely raised his own doubts.

"Ah…"

  To the surprise of the glasses officer, Celt actually laughed after hearing his words.

"you…"

   "You are right." Selt admitted, "We have not gone smoothly in these aspects, otherwise we would have wiped out the action team by following the vine."

   "Then we..."

   "I can only take one step at a time, it's a big deal..." Celt's eyes flashed fiercely.

  The officer with glasses shuddered, and a bone-chilling chill emerged.

  A strong intuition told him that General Selt meant that even the president could be removed if necessary.

"Look, what a mess Brexi has become, and what a mess the whole world has become. Under this situation, we can do nothing too much." Celt knew very well that his role as The initiator and core of the deception plan, as long as the matter is revealed, he will surely die, so on the road to desperation, he can give birth to all crazy ideas with peace of mind.

   "I really want to..." The glasses officer's sense of regret now is ten times that of when he first entered the door.

  Why didn't I see that General Selt was such an unscrupulous person before?

   Of course he couldn't see it.

  Many changes happened quietly.

Celt recalled that because of his repeated defeats in battles, when the other main forces went to chase the remnants of the Equal Army, he could only lead a group of subordinates who also failed to achieve anything to stay in the dull Laizein alone, and his eyes couldn't help become icy.

  Especially the contempt and ridicule of other colleagues towards him, the disappointment and helplessness of the family towards him, and the obedience and disobedience of his subordinates. He, who is calm on the surface, wishes to immediately turn into a beast and tear apart all the noisy and twisted things.

   "Do you think there is still a way to turn back now?" He raised his head slightly and looked contemptuously at the spectacled officer who was trembling with fright.

   "I, I just don't think... it's not enough to..."

"As far as it goes, we didn't decide. But when Mr. President decides, we will lose all the ability to struggle. No matter what the result is, we can only choose to bear it." Celt vaguely enjoyed the current state , Many people look down on themselves, but they also have the ability to subvert these.

   "...I understand." The officer with glasses saw the situation clearly.

   If you disobey Celtic, you will be killed by Celtic if you are not executed by the president.

   One way to go to the dark, continue to support Celt firmly, there may be a glimmer of hope in things.

  Two choices, two choices that are worse.

   "What do you need me to do?" asked the glasses officer.

  Selter smiled: "As I said just now, just stare at Alger first."

   "Does this matter need to be told to other people?"

   "I don't need it for the time being." Celt was also afraid that panicked people would group up with him and sing against him.

  If you want to avoid this from happening, you must first drive everyone to a dead end, and make sure that they can only stand on your side without hesitation when they know about it.

   "Understood." The officer with glasses left the office.

Selt sat alone in the office, unhurriedly called another subordinate in, and issued a new order to him, requesting that the cavalry battalion arranged to support the prison stop supporting, and immediately rush to the martyrs cemetery, and Captain Ax joins.

  —

  December 7th, 3 o'clock in the afternoon

  The prison has not waited for the support of the government army for a long time. Although the deputy warden has organized the guards to shoot and suppress, it is still difficult to resist the pace of the people.

  In the end, the prison was breached, and more than half of the jailors were killed by the angry people. The rest either escaped with the deputy warden or were captured alive.

  Thousands of innocent people held in prisons were also released.

  They became the most powerful proof that exposed the lies of the government.

  Seeing that most of them were abused to pieces, the relatives and friends who came to rescue them, as well as the people who came to help spontaneously, became even more angry.

  The battle didn't end with the rescue of the innocent, but it started to get more intense.

  Alger, who was ordered by President Auston to deepen the investigation of General Celt, originally planned to contact the people in the prison to further collect evidence, but he did not expect that all the prisoners in the prison had been rescued.

  If he hadn't hurriedly mixed into the crowd to pretend to denounce, he might have ended up in the same fate as the jailers.

  Wilak and others who were in the warehouse in the North District cheered when they heard the news.

   This is a beautiful counterattack. Under their guidance and impetus, the people not only rescued their relatives and friends, but also became more united.

  The government will not be afraid of one person, but it will be afraid of 10,000 people united, 100,000 people.

  Learning to unite and recognize the enemy and ourselves is an undeniable great progress.

  From this day on, Laizein will enter a new stage.

  Government forces can no longer arbitrarily arrest them, oppress them, and use them as before.

  It didn’t take long to pass the latest situation of Laizein to the main station of the International Equality League in Lelister. Verak and the others also received news about the public opinion war at the main station and the suppression of undercover agents.

  The intelligence department, led by Comrade Charles, cooperated with the counterattack of the public opinion war, and arrested more than 200 undercover agents from the government army overnight.

   They have been planning this operation in secret for more than two months. This time, there is no doubt that it will deal a devastating blow to the intelligence forces of the government forces.

  The public opinion war is also unfolding in an orderly manner through the unity and cooperation of sub-stations around the world. More and more people learned the other side of the matter through the newspapers spread by the International Equality League, and began to judge the truth by themselves based on the existing information.

   It is true that the public opinion of the government army has lasted for too long, and the adverse impact on the International Equality Alliance is incalculable.

   It can also be foreseen that in the future, various forces will continue to endlessly smear and criticize the International Equality Alliance and the concept of equality. There will always be people being lied to, there will always be arguments.

   But at the end of the day, the International Equality League did all they could.

  It is best for people who have been deceived to rationally have their own clear judgments, and it is even better to help others see the facts spontaneously.

   If you can't, it doesn't matter.

  Because the truth will be concealed, but it will not be buried forever.

  Time will eventually give everyone an answer.

  The public opinion war has come to an end.

  Or maybe, it has just begun, and it will not end until the power of the old era has completely fallen.

   It's just that the comrades of the International Equality League no longer worry about it after doing their best. They know that they are on the side of justice and truth. Dirty water can stain clothes, but it is absolutely impossible to dirty their clear eyes, their words and deeds, and their lofty ideals.

  Hold the truth.

   They will win.
