On the third day after Gastens released the Thunder Cloud Storm, he decided to convene the Second Congress of the Communist Party of China. The location was in the large conference room of Elena's first factory. The Communist Party of China Chairman Gastens Warren, Evan Warren, the head of the front-line military force, Eddie Warren, the head of the militia, Binbo Bobluf, the head of the internal affairs and diplomacy, Sink Warren, the head of the security and intelligence, Thomas Gulakos, the head of industrial production, and Charlie Harry Warren, the head of agriculture, attended the meeting. At the same time, more than 100 party representatives recommended by various systems were also attended. According to Gastens's plan, this meeting will determine the development direction of Elena after the Thunder Cloud Storm.

"Everyone, I am very happy and happy to be able to see you all alive today. To be honest, when I was chased by the Tai family Bush's troops some time ago, I was worried that I would say goodbye to this world and our unfinished revolutionary cause. However, no matter how difficult the situation is, but how big the setbacks are, I always firmly believe that I will live to the moment of victory of the revolution. I believe, and I also hope that you can have the same confidence in yourself and revolution as me. After all, history has proved that communism will replace capitalism. Maybe the journey will be long and tortuous, but the result will not change. We have chosen the right path, so we should never doubt the light of the future again!"

Gastens's voice was not excited and his speech was a bit casual. He did not like to prepare speeches. In his past speeches, he often wrote a few summary on paper. This gave him greater freedom of speech and gave the audience a more intimate feeling. After his opening remarks, warm applause rang out at the venue, which lasted for a while and gradually became quieter.

"Of course, you will definitely say in your heart that this person on the stage is holding a forbidden spell magic in his hand, or even a great magician. Of course, he would not think that the revolution would fail. He was so squeamish, did he really think that we are the great magicians like him?"

Gastens made a joke, but only sporadic laughter sounded at the venue. Most of the people were silent and looking at Gastens on the stage. Most of the people here witnessed the thundercloud storm three days ago, with the powerful and unstoppable power from the extraordinary dimension. Even Gastens declared immediately after the end of the forbidden spell that he was not a great magician, but could only release the forbidden spell magic. However, everyone's views on him had undergone fundamental changes. No matter what he said, the magic that day was real, and nearly 200,000 people died were real. Under such power, few people really believed Gastens, believing that he was just an ordinary person.

Gastens knew that this was the adverse reaction he would inevitably have when he used the forbidden spell magic to save Elena. Compared to the other costs that only he knew, this reaction alone had already made him feel a little anxious. As the leader of a revolutionary team, especially a leader of a proletarian revolutionary team, if he could not integrate himself into the masses and gain the trust of the masses, he would never be able to achieve the true victory of the revolution. However, since he had done it, Gastens had also made corresponding psychological preparations. No matter how difficult it was to let the party members and the masses accept him again, he would have to regain the recognition and trust of the masses based on equality, rather than obedience based on awe.

"Everyone," knowing that this problem cannot be solved in a short period of time, Gastens is not confused. "Today's meeting has three main contents. The first is the summary and reflection of this battle against Elena. In the previous battles we experienced, relying on advanced weapons and the sincere fighting will of comrades, we have never lost the battle. The only two hard battles were just a bit too much, but the results were acceptable. Objectively speaking, such historical achievements can almost be called a miracle for a small base such as ours with a total population of less than 50,000. We have reason to be proud of it and also have reason to be proud. However, what we absolutely cannot have is the complacency, arrogance and self-conqueror that arises from this! "

Gastens said very heavily. Many people in the venue looked at Ivan and Eddie sitting in the front row. The two heads of Elena's military power twisted uneasy, but did not speak.

"I'm not talking about all the soldiers, nor are they all the generals. I'm talking about myself!" Gastens noticed the reaction of the venue and immediately corrected it. This time, he came to conduct a review, not to blame others. "The reason why this battle of Elena's defense was so hard that even our home was almost taken over was that the front-line combat troops led by the enemy's 17th Army and 18th Army were dragged out tightly and could not return on time. This directly led to us being able to use militia troops and backward front-mounted smoothbore rifles to go

Fight against the enemy's steam cannon! Faced with the double disadvantage of number and technology, my comrades and comrades can hold Elena for three days, giving me the opportunity to rush back, giving me the opportunity to get key props desperately, release that magic, and let us save Elena together! It is no exaggeration to say that the three days that comrades have won directly determine the outcome of Elena's defense battle. So, everyone, before I reflect on my mistakes, please pay my highest respect to each of us soldiers and comrades who died in this battle!!!”

This time, the applause at the venue was deafening and lasting for a long time. This time, the battle for Elena's defense suffered heavy losses. Many of the people participating in the meeting had their relatives and friends died in this war. Now, seeing Gastens, who had saved Elena with a magic, still valued the dedication and sacrifice of ordinary people, the comrades attending the meeting were both moved and heartwarming. They applauded vigorously, conveying their admiration for the sacrificed comrades and their support for the suspected great magician on the stage.

"...Dears," Gastens and others calmed down the applause and continued, "Victory is hard-won, but we must also face the mistakes behind the victory. This time, the production brigades and guerrilla brigades I led use the most advanced weapons in the world and have the most determined warriors in the world, but they are still almost completely defeated by the enemy and killed them all. The most fundamental reason is my carelessness and underestimation of the enemy. Before the battle, I did not conduct sufficient reconnaissance and did not understand the enemy's release.

The steam cannons in the middle of the army were all broken baits. On the contrary, after I initially confirmed the position of the enemy's steam cannon, I invested most of the power in my hands, hoping to defeat the enemy's troops guarding the steam cannon in one fell swoop, destroying the enemy's killer weapon, as before. This directly led to the tenacious resistance of the enemy, our production brigades and guerrilla brigades had to give up their range advantage and go against the enemy. Not only did they suffer heavy losses, but they also used up their bullets.

Medicine had to evacuate the battlefield and was chased by the enemy. At the same time, because we mistakenly thought that we had destroyed the enemy's steam cannon, we had a wrong understanding of the defense situation of Elena. After completing the ammunition supply, we chose to turn back and continue fighting with the enemy instead of returning to Elena to join the defense operations. This directly led to Elena lacking enough advanced weapons and experienced soldiers to resist the enemy, and could only rely on undertrained militias and backward weapons to fight against people.

The enemy with absolute advantage. It can be said that because of my leadership and decision-making mistakes, Elena was almost destroyed by the enemy in one fell swoop, which directly led to the fatal blow of the production brigade and the guerrilla brigade, which directly led to the loss of their relatives and friends in the sitting area, which directly led to the biggest crisis since its establishment! I, Gastens Warren, solemnly apologize to all living comrades and sacrificed comrades! I am sorry, it is my fault!"

Faced with the apology of a great man who was suspected of being a great magistrate, even if the person was Gastens, who was already very familiar to most of the people present, the atmosphere in the venue was still a little panicked. The comrades at the meeting knew that Gastens was different from all the old bureaucrats in this world. He never put on airs and lost his temper, always stood with the masses, lived and worked together, and never shy away from his mistakes and mistakes. However, in such a formal occasion at such a party congress, with his hidden identity as a suspected great magistrate, he could actually put down his face and reflect and apologize seriously, and even take all the mistakes on himself. How could such a responsibility be achieved by leaders of other forces or countries, or those once arrogant mages?

"President!"

In the quiet venue, a sudden shout suddenly rang out, and Ivan Warren stood up.

"Chairman! In the guerrilla war outside, every decision is a collective decision. Every decision, everyone who participates in the decision bears an unshirkable responsibility! In this way, not only you underestimate the enemy, but we also underestimate the enemy! You are arrogant, arrogant and self-righteous. Although we do not admit it, we have some similar thoughts in our hearts! This mistake, this failure, like you, we must be responsible for the sacrifices of our comrades!"

"Yes, we are also responsible!!!"

Six or seven comrades stood up in the back row of the venue. They all survived the guerrilla warfare like Ivan and found Elena's officers and soldiers. They experienced the entire battle personally and naturally knew what the reason for the failure of the battle. Now that Gastenth had taken the initiative to admit his mistake, they could not hide behind their chairman. It was a man, and if he had any mistakes, he had to admit it bravely!

"I am the main leader, and I am the first person in charge of the Party and military forces. You can make suggestions, but whether to adopt them or how to implement them will be decided in the end. If the battle is not won, it is naturally caused by my decision. I have taken the good intentions of my comrades, but I must say this apology!"

Gastens said, signaling Ivan and the surviving soldiers to sit down. Ivan and the soldiers looked at each other and sat down slowly.

"Fortunately, we have another forbidden spell magic, otherwise, we might really have to go up the mountain to fight guerrillas. Without factories and advanced weapons, the revolution will only be more difficult. Although I still firmly believe that the revolution will definitely win, we should avoid detours and we should avoid detours. Therefore, based on the problems exposed by our troops in this past battle, the command and decision-making system exposed by our troops is incomplete, insufficient military strength, overly dependent on advanced weapons, poor information communication, etc., after repeated consultations with the members of the deliberation, I announced that the restructuring of the Ailena armed forces will be launched from now on. We will start the current elite party membership route.

The line turned to the large-scale army line with party members as the backbone core, and expanded the scale of Elena's army by absorbing a large number of peasants, workers and comrades from all walks of life who are close to communism and accepting revolutionary concepts. At the same time, in order to maintain control and establish an army party committee system, all military commanders and chief officers must be party members, and set up a position of instructor in all grassroots companies, full-time responsible for solving the ideological problems of the soldiers, popularize our revolutionary concepts to the soldiers, improve the ideological awareness and revolutionary literacy of the soldiers, and ultimately, cultivate all soldiers into a qualified revolutionary of the cause of communism!"

Some representatives from the military system in the venue already knew the content of this reform and were not too surprised. But most people were not aware of it. People suddenly started to talk, and a low buzz sounded in the venue. Gastens waited for a while and found that everyone had no intention of stopping, so he continued.

"The specific reform content and plan will be officially notified to the military comrades later. Here, I will only talk about ideas. While promoting the establishment of a large-scale troop system with party members as the core, we must establish a complete combat staffing system to eliminate the current one-man phenomenon, and minimize the impact of individual mistakes on collective decision-making as much as possible. Whether it is the army-level big strategy, general direction, or small meetings at the regiment level, we must adhere to collective decision-making, fully express opinions, and fully discuss, ensure that everyone can understand our strategy and minimize the risk of decision-making mistakes!"

Because it involves a specific command system, and Gastens's speech was not very detailed, many people in the venue did not understand it very much. However, since there will be a formal notice after the meeting, everyone's eagerness has been reduced. The comrades briefly discussed for a while, roughly understood Gastens's meaning, so they calmed down and waited for Gastens to continue their speech.

"The reform of the military system is mainly about these two parts, expanding the army and establishing a complete staff system. After that, the second point I want to talk about is our territorial expansion strategy after the Battle of Elena!"
Chapter completed!
