The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

Li looked at Ma En who was digging the drainage ditch with a hoe. Instead of calling him immediately, he squatted beside him.

Ma En was digging a stone at this time. His hoe got stuck and he couldn't dig it anymore. Ma En was about to squat down, but someone else had already squatted down before him.

The man used his upper body to dig out the stone together with Ma En, and Ma En looked at the person who came.

"Li, why are you here?" Ma En asked after wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"Mr. Maan, I want to report to you about the news in the town. There are also some work issues that I want to ask you for advice on." Li Huishou said.

“Regarding work matters, you can report to me when you return. This is not the place to discuss such matters.

However, if you have any doubts, you can tell me now, and I will help you consult and see if I can answer them. "Ma En continued.

When Li heard what Ma En said, he immediately asked, "Mr. Ma En, according to my investigation in the town, even in the town, people's life is very difficult.

This is also the reason why I was able to quickly expand the revolutionary party organization to every city in such a short period of time.

I wonder if we had launched the action in the city at the beginning, we would have overthrown the nobles and the king with the help of the people.

By relying on the large amount of materials hoarded by the exploiting class to help the people, can we now bring the victory of the great revolution on Roland Island forward?"

Ma En heard Li's thoughts and shook his head. "Li, I'm glad that you were able to actively investigate and find me, but you didn't consider that the power of the exploiting class in the city is equally strong."

Li hurriedly said, "But their strength is not enough..." Ma En interrupted Li directly, "You forgot that the direct manifestation of strength is not simply how good the situation is or how many people there are. It is directly reflected in violence."

Lee went on to say, “I know that the kingdom’s elite military may be powerful, but the army has been on the front lines of the war and is stuck in the quagmire.

I think by the time we win, they may not be able to react at all, and by that time we will have taken all the cities, armed the people, and the outcome will be decided.”

Ma En then shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Li, you still made an empiricist mistake. The armies of the Kingdom of Deya and the Kingdom of North have been fighting for years, and they are not comparable to the group of overseers of the Kingdom of Andorra.

We were able to win at that time because the army itself was very sympathetic to the lower-class revolution we were carrying out, and many people even participated in it.

However, we are now on Roland Island. I dare say that even if we control all the cities, kings and nobles in the rear.

The remnants of the kingdom's forces in the army will definitely go back and suppress the revolution without any hesitation, even at the cost of selling out national interests.

Their innate class nature means that once they have power, they will definitely use the most brutal means to deal with any class that dares to challenge them.

Although the soldiers were certainly also victims of oppression and exploitation, this time was different from the last time. Our revolutionary party did not gain any support from the army.

With the violent support of the army, I believe the exploiting class can do anything cruel.

Facing a well-trained army with years of combat experience, what would it matter if they took the city? They couldn't defend it. And it would also cause a terrible blow to the progressive forces in the town."

After listening to Marx and Engels' hypothesis, Li admitted that Marx and Engels were right. He had made an empiricist mistake, only seeing the comparison of the enemy's and our own forces in the city, while ignoring the enemy's greatest violent organ.

Alas, Li sighed in his heart, thinking that it would be too difficult to replicate the revolutionary army's overwhelming victory in the Kingdom of Andorra.

Mr. Marx and Engels were right. It seems that the most important thing for the revolution is to control the gun. If we have the support of the army, we can directly march into the capital and see if he dares to oppress the people.

After answering Li's question, Ma En started digging the drainage ditch. Due to a delay, Ma En fell behind the team.

Seeing that Ma En had fallen behind in progress due to his own reasons, Li started to help Ma En. He used his hands to move the stones in front of him so that Ma En's hoe would not get stuck in the stones again.

The two were working enthusiastically for a while, but before long, the person in front had already finished, ahead of everyone else.

The man was still walking back in the dust, and actually walked straight towards Ma En.

Li couldn't see clearly from a distance because the man's face was covered in dust. When he got closer, he found that it was little Gus.

Ma En also said jokingly, "Hey, our construction site guard comrade is here."

Little Gus also laughed and said, "Mr. Maan, please stop teasing me. I am just young and strong, and I have been doing this since I was a child."

When Li heard what Gus said, he also teased, "Mr. Maen, you're right. Gus was the same when he worked in the coal mine with us before. He could do the work of three of us."

Ma En looked at the two men and laughed and scolded them for a while, then said, "Let's work harder together and try to finish the work on this piece of land in the morning."

The two of them also followed Ma En, and after everyone's efforts, they finally completed the drainage channel before lunch.

After finishing the work, Ma En, Li and Little Gus went to eat together, and the three of them wiped their sweat as they walked.

They soon arrived at the cafeteria. The line had already stretched to the road outside the cafeteria, and the three of them lined up slowly.

While waiting, some workers who had finished eating earlier left the canteen. When they saw Ma En queuing, they all rushed over to say hello.

"Hello, Mr. Marx." "Hello, Comrade Marx."

Ma En also smiled and replied, "Hello, comrades."

Of course, the thing that made Ma En happy the most was that a large group of children who had just finished their meal, when they saw Ma En, all ran over to greet him.

These children are not all from Dashi Village. After the school in Dashi Village was built, children from several surrounding villages also came to study there.

Now, when they saw Ma En, they were very excited and ran over to say loudly, "Hello, teacher."

Then, before Ma En could react, they all ran away shyly.

Ma En could only loudly reply, "Hello, classmates."

After thinking for a while, and waiting for everyone to run away, I remembered to say, "Study hard and remember to do your homework."

But at this time, the students may not be able to hear the advice of Teacher Marx and Engels.

After dinner, the three of them separated and Ma En returned to his residence.

After talking with Li in the morning, Ma and Engels discovered that there were still many ideas within the revolutionary party that needed to be corrected, and the ideas of many comrades were immature and needed further polishing.

Marx and Engels thought for a while and took out two reports prepared for the meeting: a report on the investigation of the rural movement on Roland Island and a report on why the revolutionary party regime can exist.

Marx and Engels now felt that the two reports were still insufficient, so they took out paper and pen and wrote down - a single spark can start a prairie fire.
