Twenty Seven Years

   Sitting in the shaky carriage, Verak's thoughts were flying wild.

  He found that since leaving the slums of Tsward City, he had never stayed in one place for three consecutive months.

  In more than a year, I went to too many places and did too many things.

   But Rao has experienced so many partings, he still hasn't adapted. Every time I leave, I feel a little depressed.

   "Comrade Verac, do you speak Montrego?" Connie asked.

   "No." Verak shook his head slightly, "Monrego is quite difficult to learn, and I don't have a lot of energy to spend a long time learning another language."

   "Then we can only rely on Comrade Murphy, won't this be a bit inconvenient?"

   "It's definitely inconvenient. For the time being, let's just take it one step at a time." It is impossible for Verak to learn a language every time he goes to a place. He is not so good yet. Going to more places in the future, what he needs to practice more is to help every place more efficiently.

Connie is worried about Montrego's revolutionary future: "In my impression, Montrego and Shennai are the only two places where the International Equality League has not established a sub-station? Starting from scratch, it will probably take a lot more time than in Bash."

"The level of chaos in Montrego is beyond imagination. Diaz and Murphy have told me before. It is precisely because it is difficult to survive that the terminus has not developed here. If we can ignite Montrego The fire of revolution in Lego, then the significance will be extraordinary." The more others do not go, the more difficult it is for Verac to go.

  He is not very good at solving problems that others cannot solve, but he is willing to make such an attempt to provide a slight possibility to open up the situation.

  Monglego has been plagued by internal wars all year round, and has almost lost his sense of presence in the international community, so Connie has no knowledge of this place: "Over there...what's the situation?"

Verak himself has not witnessed it himself, but from other people's descriptions, he is already uncomfortable: "The so-called Montrego government over there is useless, with more than a dozen warlords, large and small, entrenched in various places to extort money, and they either cooperate with each other or form alliances. They all want to completely rule this land. Under this, the people are living in dire straits, and countless people are forced to go to a dead end. For a little food, they can even swing their knives at each other... In short, there is no order at all , human nature is overwhelmed by animal nature, except for the expansion of desire and the breeding of sin, there is no place for vitality..."

   "Just us and Comrade Murphy, can it work?" Connie said.

"It's impossible for the three of us to change the stalemate that has been stalemate in Menglege for more than ten years. It's still the same sentence, take one step at a time, go in and understand the situation first. If you can't do it, withdraw, if you have a chance Build sub-stations to guide the people in troubled times." Veraker is not too worried, in his eyes, only when he really arrives at the place can he judge the feasibility of many things.

   "Yeah." Connie was a little uncertain, but she trusted Veraker very much. Even if the situation in Montrego was far worse than the current description, she also believed that Veracer could lead them to make a name for themselves.

"However, we can't be ignorant of Montrego's language. It will take a while to meet Vladislav and the others. We can use this time to learn as much as possible to adapt to Montrego's language as quickly as possible. Live," Verac said.

   "Understood." Connie was ready to learn.

  Four days later

   August 25th

  Verak and Connie came to Dnokov City in Bash.

Vladislav had already received the message from Quentin and the others, so he sent someone to wait nearby to respond. After Verac and Connie arrived, they quickly escorted them to Vladislav and other cadres The temporary site where they are located—a mountain outside Dnokov City.

Looking at the simple houses built against the mountains, and the comrades in plain clothes who were busy coming and going, Verak greeted Vladislav, Arseni, Vikenj, August and others who were waiting for him with a smile. Several cadres of the Sder Kingdom sub-station.

   "You're finally here!" It's just been almost a month since Vladislav disappeared.

  It seems that after finding a place that really suits you, people will feel like a new life.

   Verac felt the same way.

   "Let me introduce to you the comrades from the Sder Kingdom sub-station, this is—" Arseni smiled and pointed to the few people beside him.

   "You haven't forgotten me, have you?" Before Arseni could introduce, the Sder sub-station who was pointed at first asked Verak with a smile.

   "Comrade Hogan." Verak remembered that when he went to Bash, it was Comrade Hogan from the Sdr Kingdom branch who escorted him to the border.

  After a few pleasantries, Vladislav invited Verak and Connie to a meeting room covered by a waterproof cloth, which was considered a room.

   "Let's not waste time, let's talk about the situation of the scavenger directly, get rid of Maxim as soon as possible, and get rid of the knot earlier." After sitting down, Verak said immediately.

"I like your clean and neat style!" Vladislav hasn't closed his mouth since Verak arrived, and after Verak and Connie sat down, he enthusiastically poured a glass of water for them, " Arseni, tell me about the situation."

"Well." Arseni said to Verak, "The situation is like this, Maxim bites very tightly, has a clear prediction of our travel route, and will greet us every time in the city where we have a high probability of going. Hearing our whereabouts, we immediately drove over as fast as possible after hearing our whereabouts, so that we could only be tired of moving and unable to carry out the revolution in a stable place."

   "Have you ever tried to separate out a small team to distract Maxim on purpose? You can even create a few more teams to interfere with Maxim's judgment." Verak asked.

"Yes, but it was seen through by Maxim. As mentioned just now, wherever we might go, Maxim notified the local officials in advance to fortify. Our investment is too small, either we can't detect it, or we just The local guards are enough to deal with it, and only large-scale operations will attract Maxim's attention. And if the soldiers are divided into two groups, it is meaningless to ensure that the scale can lure Maxim. We can't take the train, He couldn’t pass through the checkpoint, but Maxim was able to catch up with us in a short time by train, and if we separated, we would end up being broken one by one…” Arseni said.

"So, I have to get rid of Maxim, so that I can go to Montrego with peace of mind, and the Bash branch can develop more stably." Verak was more sure about the threat of Maxim and the importance of getting rid of him. sex.

  Comrade Hogan of the Stall substation spread his hands: "The problem is how to get rid of it? Head-to-head is not advisable, and assassinating us will never get close to him."

"Where is he now?"

   "It's in the city of Denokov." Vladislav spread out the map and pointed to the city of Denokov, which was 10 to 20 kilometers away from them.

   "Are there any of our people in the city now?" Verak asked again.

   "A few comrades have been placed to monitor Maxim's movements." Vladislav said.

   "Tell me carefully."

Vladislav waved to Vikenti and August, and the two understood, and brought the floor plan of Dnokov City: "The scavenger just arrived, and he doesn't fit in with the locals. Maxim He simply did not hide the whereabouts of these people under his command, and settled in the highest-standard hotel next to the city center openly."

  Verak looked at the building next to the town hall that Vladislav was pointing at.

"Now the city hall and the three blocks near this hotel are under martial law, and you need to go through strict interrogation before you can pass through it. As for this hotel, no matter how qualified people want to step into the gate, they have to ask Maxim first. opinions." Vladislav drew a large circle with his fingers, and within the large circle was the defense zone set up by Maxim, and even if they could enter, they could not carry any weapons.

   "The senior officials of Winterhold come to such a small place as Dnokov City, the pomp is really big enough." Verak stood up and looked down at the map, "If you don't enter the city, how about ambush when he leaves the city?"

   "They have more people than us, and there are guards in the city, so an ambush is not realistic." Arseni shook his head.

"He is such a cautious person, shouldn't he let people other than the scavenger take the train with him? We can consider tampering with the train or the rails, not only to get rid of Maxim, but also to severely damage the scavenger." Velak mentioned a more ruthless one.

  Anyway, Maxim won’t let the civilians get on the train, so it’s easier to just destroy the train and let the scavenger disappear with him.

"On the contrary, Maxim knows how to take civilians as hostages. He has never taken any special trains, and he only rents a few carriages. Of course, you don't have to think about whether you can start with civilian carriages. Maxim is naturally on guard. Focus on this." Arseni shrugged.

   "Interesting." Veraker became more interested.

   The more Maxim prevents everything from leaking, the more it can raise Verak's fighting spirit.

  The International Equality League has eradicated countless ruthless characters, and Maxim will not be an exception. He will break through Maxim's layers of defense, and let the old forces all over the world see that no one and no means can stop the progress of the International Equality League.

   "Do you have any better ideas?" Hogan asked expectantly.

   "Not yet, but within ten days, Maxim will die." Verak said with rare self-confidence.

   "Comrade Verak can say such a thing himself, it seems that Maxim really won't be able to laugh for a few days." Vladislav was a little surprised when he heard Verak's speech, and then he didn't worry about it anymore.

  During this period of time together, he had never seen Verak say such a thing. It was the first time he saw him, and he was more expecting than anyone present that Verak would come up with some brilliant way to make Maxim die.

"Running all the way, I will arrange for you to rest first, and we will hold a formal meeting in the evening to discuss ways to eradicate Maxim." After the formulation of the plan came to an impasse, Vladislav first arranged for Verak, Connie stayed to eat.

"I heard that Montrego is quite chaotic. Can you just take Connie and that comrade named Murphy?" In the simple room, Vladislav personally brought food for Verack and Connie , By the way, ask about its follow-up plan.

"It's not that the three of us have to do something big in the past. You can understand that we are a reconnaissance team, go there first to investigate the situation, and when we have enough information, we will review the situation and make some arrangements that are currently unforeseen." Wei Wei Luke handed Connie a meal first, then picked up another and ate it himself.

   "Do I need to arrange some more people? Even if we are going to investigate the situation, three people are still too few. You will encounter a group of desperadoes casually on the road, and you will be overwhelmed." Vladislav was really worried.

   "Too many people attract attention and make it unsafe. You must know that there are warlords everywhere, and they don't care about our identities. As long as they are caught, we will definitely die." Verak declined.

  Verak doesn't need it, and Vladislav can't force it: "...OK, you need it anytime, we are here to help you."

  Verak let out a "huh".

   "Eat first, take a good rest after eating, and I will ask you to go to a meeting together in the evening." Vladislav did not disturb the two of them for dinner, and left the room after saying hello.

   But everyone didn’t actually give Verak and them a chance to rest. As soon as Vladislav left, Vikenji and August came together, and also asked about Verak’s going to Montrego.

   "Are you really going? Montrego is in a mess."

   "Do you need us to follow? If there are more people, we can take care of each other."

   "Three people are still too dangerous, or you should think about it..."

  …

  The questioning of the two was basically the same as that of Vladislav, and Verak repeated his answer.

  The same is true for the visits of Arseni, Hogan and others in the future.

   At night, Vladislav came on time to invite Verak and Connie to the conference room.

  The meeting room was filled with more than a dozen comrades. Vladislav arranged for Verak to sit on the main seat and presided over the meeting: "First of all, let us welcome Comrade Verak to guide our work."

  Everyone applauded unanimously.

  Verak waved his hand: "No need to do this, just get straight to the point."

"Okay, then let's have a meeting directly." Vladislav smiled heartily, and got straight to the point, "Comrade Verak came here this time mainly to help us eradicate Maxim, the biggest threat to us. Maxim We are fully prepared, and calling everyone here tonight is to let everyone brainstorm and work out a method with the least risk and the best success rate.”

"Maxim is the soul of the scavenger. As long as he dies, it is impossible for others to take over the scavenger to exert any effective countermeasures." Verak said after Vladislav, "Let me mention it first. My new idea, I hope it can open everyone's minds."
