193 Emergency meeting

Bad news always passes faster than good news.

The news that the Xinshan Pass was broken, with the messengers and fleeing farmers, entered Ailena. The people of Ailena, who were already a little panicked because of the upcoming battle in the river beside, fell into deep horror.

The Luoshan Pass was broken, the Xinshan Pass was gone, and their leader Gastens was missing. The enemy was close at hand. Eilena, who had never experienced war since Gastens obtained control of Eilena, was experiencing war. Eilena, who had basically never failed after raising the anti-flag from Gastens, was also standing on the verge of failure.

"Director, I heard that the Xinshan Pass is also broken, what should we do?"

Jimmy Warren, an employee of the Eilena Agriculture Bureau, carried a backpack of a Type 27 steam rifle, held the rifle in his hand, and reached out to hold Charlie Harry Warren's hand.

"What?"

Charlie Harry Warren, who was busy evacuating order, did not hear clearly. He pressed Jimmy Warren's backhand and signaled him to stay calm, so he focused his attention in the crowd in front of him.

After the Luoshan Pass was broken, Elena's order was much better than Charlie Harry imagined. There were many people asking to join the army or receive weapons, and some people fleeing, but there were basically no one causing trouble. This also has something to do with Gastens's persistence in population screening policies. It is difficult for gangsters and gangsters to enter Elena's territory. People who can obtain the qualifications of new farmers have a strong sense of belonging to Elena.

"Everyone, everyone!" Charlie Harry waved to the crowded crowd in front of him, "Brothers who receive weapons can go to Chaoyang Square, where there are troops who are sending weapons to everyone. You can get weapons and gather and go directly to Hewan to prepare for war. Eilena thanks you for your unyielding moments in times of crisis, and Eilena will definitely not disappoint you! Now, please don't worry, follow me, comrade, and line up to Chaoyang Square. Do you understand?"

"OK!"

"Can we win?"

"Come on!!"

"Let's drive the enemy out together!!!"

The crowd was talking, but still maintained basic order. Charlie Harry listened to everyone's words and felt a warm feeling in his heart. He was a person who struggled from the bottom of society and saw the dark side of human nature. Although the people in front of him were simple in dress, many of them were not educated, and they looked very simple in working people, their trust and support for Elena still allowed Charlie Harry to see hope in danger.

"Director!"

Seeing that the people who had gathered together could not remember the first time they followed their colleagues to Chaoyang Square, Jimmy grabbed Charlie Harry Warren's sleeve again, "Director, I heard from them that the pass of the New Mountains has been broken!"

"That's impossible at the Xinshan Pass? Isn't Prince Eliot's troops outside? We should be allied with them?"

As a member of the council, Charlie Harry was able to get a lot of first-hand news. When Elena and Prince Elliot formed an alliance, Gastens also held a special meeting to discuss it. He was impressed and naturally would not forget it. Therefore, Charlie Harry didn't believe it when he heard Jimmy tell him the first moment he heard it. He intuitively felt that Jimmy must have heard it wrong or had some misunderstandings.

"Has it been wrong?"

Charlie Harry asked back, but subconsciously clenched the spear in his hand. He knew very well about Elena's situation. If the Luoshan Pass and the Xinshan Pass were broken at the same time, then this small revolutionary base would have reached the most dangerous time.

"The Xinshan Pass was broken!!! Prince Eliot was betrayal! Everyone should be careful when they flee to the Xinshan Pass!!!"

Someone whom I didn't know was yelling by the way in the street. Charlie Harry glanced at the man and found that he was not wearing the uniform of the Elena public servant, knowing that this person was just a commoner. He took two steps and stopped him.

"Comrade, you said the Xinshan Pass was broken, but it's true?"

"Of course," the man looked at Charlie Harry in a panic, "They all said that. It is said that the messengers have rushed into the first factory, and the top leaders of the Communist Party are holding meetings!"

The senior management did not hold a meeting.

As a member of the council, Charlie Harry knew very well that since the Luoshan Pass was broken, the top leaders of the Communist Party had not held a collective meeting. Daisy sent someone to inform the current situation. Even if the Xinshan Pass was really broken, the person in front of him did not tell the truth completely. Moreover, his expression seemed a little abnormal.

"Have you finished asking? I'm leaving! If I don't leave, I can't run away!"

The man broke free from Charlie Harry's arm and tried to leave. Charlie Harry's inspiration flashed, reached out and grabbed him again, and turned around and called him.

"Jimmy, come and catch him for me!"

"good!"

Although I don’t know what happened, there were many staff members of the Agricultural Bureau present, some of which were retired soldiers. Everyone arrested the man in a few seconds, and then they remembered to ask Charlie Harry why he wanted to arrest him.

"This person may be a spy or spy from the reactionary forces. He was publicly spreading rumors on the street and creating panic. I have this suspicion. Jimmy, you take two people to the Anti-Investigation Bureau and ask them to ask."

"Hey, why are you unreasonable?" The man suddenly started to make a fuss when he heard that he was going to send himself to the Anti-Investigation Bureau. "I just heard a piece of news and told everyone that I would not have time to run. What was wrong? What's wrong with me? Are you going to kill innocent people indiscriminately? Do you don't want everyone to know that the Xinshan Pass has been broken? Ah?"

The man spoke loudly, gradually attracting some people. Charlie Harry knew that this was an extraordinary moment and could not hesitate. He punched him in the mouth and sealed his words.

"Everyone, we are not clear about the situation at Xinshan Pass, but the Fourth Militia Division under construction has enough troops to resist the enemy's attack. Even if it cannot be stopped, it will leave enough time for everyone to retreat. I suspect this person is a spy or a spy, and will send him to the Anti-Research Bureau. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

"Well... I lost - I'm going to be beaten up..."

The man's teeth were knocked off by Charlie Harry, and he couldn't even speak clearly. Charlie Harry, who has been doing farm work for many years, still took a heavy blow, and he deliberately created this result. He kicked the man again, and Charlie Harry asked Jimmy Warren to take him away, which was the answer to this sudden incident.

"Comrade Charlie Harry, Comrade Charlie Harry!"

From a distance, someone rode a horse towards Charlie Harry. Charlie Harry looked in the voice and found that the person who came was wearing military uniforms, probably from the army.

"I'm Charlie Harry Warren, what's wrong?"

Charlie Harry met before the man came to meet him. Although he temporarily caught a spy who was suspected to be an enemy, he still wanted to know about the situation at the Xinshan Pass.

"Comrade Charlie Harry", the man turned over and dismounted, "I am Daisy's guard, Blackrock Gell. At the order of Comrade Daisy, please go to the First Factory Conference Room to attend the emergency council meeting."

"I see."

Charlie Harry felt a little sad, and he had a stronger sense of obscenity. He ordered several comrades who stayed at the scene to continue their work at the Agricultural Bureau and got on the horse with BlackRock Gell. On the way to the factory, Charlie Harry tried to ask about the content of the meeting and the situation about the New Mountain Pass, but was rejected by BlackRock.

"Comrade Charlie Harry, I don't know the specific situation. Comrade Daisy asked me to invite the committee members of the council to attend the meeting as soon as possible. Comrade Daisy will explain the situation at the meeting on the battle between the New Mountain Pass and Elena now."

"I see."

Charlie Harry remained silent. He stopped asking questions, but began to think about Elena's next way out. If Gastens failed to rush back before the enemy broke Elena, they might really have to lead troops up the mountain to fight guerrillas like the emergency plan discussed before, waiting for Gastens's return.

There were not many horses on the streets of Elena, and Charlie Harry and BlackRock soon arrived at Chaoyang Square in front of the First Factory. Here, the comrades in the army were organizing the people who came to hear the news to line up and collect weapons. They would do a simple formation here and go directly to the Hewan battlefield.

Because of the tight time, Charlie Harry did not stay in front of the square for too long. He took a few simple glances and followed BlackRock to the conference room. As soon as he opened the door, he heard the voice of Garrons Warren.

"I object! Sending such people to the front line is to die! Moreover, the number of people we are now far from the enemy, and no fortifications have been built in the Hewan area before. Relying on these farmers who have never fought wars will not only lose, but will also let their lives be lost in vain!"

"Otherwise?" Sink Warren leaned forward and quarreled with Garrons, and didn't even see Charlie Harry standing at the door. "Don't forget, less than a year ago, you and I were just farmers. It's better to learn about fighting and killing people, but it doesn't have much impact. The leader also said that when you are a soldier and a war, you must have faith again and again. I think the most important thing about these brothers outside is faith!"

"Belief cannot make up for the disadvantages of terrain and number of people!" Garron Warren's voice was a little loud and he was obviously excited. "These are the seeds of our revolutionary hard-working cultivation. These people, if they survive now, can pass on the revolution. When the leader comes back, he will respond with a hundred responses. Another Elena is. But if you want to send them all to the battlefield and send them to death, what can we do to inherit the revolution? The leader has also said that the most important thing is always people! You can't all die!"

After hearing a few words, Charlie Harry understood the focus of the debate between the two sides. Whether to send the people who gathered voluntarily on the battlefield or let them escape in dispersed ways, that is, to determine the outcome of the Battle of the River Bay, and also to determine whether Elena's remaining power will leave or stay in this crisis moment.

"Charlie Harry", when Charlie Harry also began to think about this issue, Daisy came to him, "We just received the news that Prince Eliot violated our covenant and attacked the Pass of Jones. The 9th Regiment of the Second Militia Division guarding the Pass of Jones was killed. Comrade Caribbet Warren, who was heading to negotiate, was unknown. Now Prince Eliot's army is approaching Elena quickly. We have just sent three regiments of the Fourth Militia Division to build a defense line, but everyone is not confident enough. You are here just now. When they finish speaking, you will also tell me your opinion."

Charlie Harry nodded, thought for a few seconds, and asked Daisy a question.

"Is there any new news for the boss?"

"Not yet." Daisy's expression was obviously worried when she talked about Gastens. But she quickly hid this emotion. "After this matter, the most important thing now is to decide the next step."

Charlie Harry nodded softly again, then turned his head to listen to his comrades' arguments. Due to the tight time, Garrons Warren and Sink Warren spoke very quickly. The focus of the two debates was still how to deal with the people. However, as more people joined the discussion, the content of the debate became whether to fight guerrillas or defend the enemy. Sink and others, who supported fighting guerrillas, believed that the people would be allowed to escape in dispersed manner, and the Communist Party led the soldiers to go up the mountain to fight guerrillas.

, is the best way to preserve power and wait for Gastens to come back. The defenders represented by Garrons believed that since the people's hearts are available, it is not easy to establish Elena's foundation, and they should fight and try again. If they don't work, they will run away and they must retreat without fighting. Charlie Harry and Daisy are the only remaining members present without expressing their opinions. The other members have already revealed their attitudes during the discussion. Finally, everyone gradually calmed down and looked at Daisy.

"Daisy, you are Chairman Gastens's lover. What should you do?" Garron Warren handed over the decision to Daisy. He looked at Daisy with a firm and sincere attitude in his eyes.

"Well, let's talk about it. We have said all the ideas. Time is tight now, so we can't delay too much."

Sink Warren also expressed his opinion. Daisy glanced at Charlie Harry and asked him.

"What do you think?"

"I think I should play," Charlie Harry knew that time was tight. "Eilena has put in too much effort and gave up like this. Everyone will definitely not be willing to give up. And we still have a try. If we don't try it, how can we know that it will not succeed?"

"I get it," Daisy nodded and faced everyone.

"My idea about this matter is this. Since the people outside came voluntarily, I would like to emphasize to them that war will kill people. If we insist on joining, we will accept it, and whether we go to the front line or fight guerrillas, we will be our soldiers. As for the Hewan position, we will first use the geographical advantage of Liuyin River to defend for half a day. Wait until the evening, see if there is any news about Gastens. If there is no, or if his instructions are not obvious, we will be ready to leave. Now, except for Garrons and two comrades Eddie, the other comrades, took their own things and started to prepare for evacuation. They did not bring any heavy items, only key information, do you understand?"

"clear!"

Although Gastens was not here, the order of the council was still good. After the members reached an agreement, they began to arrange their work quickly. Charlie Harry and Daisy chatted for a few words and said goodbye. In the square outside the window of the conference room, the number of people gathered to join the army was still increasing.
