The worker patrol team member took the ID, looked through it a few times and then gave it back to Xiaoya. There was no problem. The ID was real and the photo matched the person, so they could let him pass. However, the name on the ID seemed familiar. I felt like I had seen it somewhere.

Without thinking too much, the team member used the remote control to open the door of the factory. Xiaoya smiled and thanked the team member before entering the factory.

It was noon now, and there were not many workers on the production line. Because a large number of citizens had replaced the student workers, Xiaoya did not see any other student workers except the worker picket member guarding the factory gate.

There is nothing much to say about the military factory. It is the key work area of ​​the Spartacus Regiment. Even though this military factory that produces light weapons is the asset of the former tank manufacturing department, Xiaoya and the others have cleaned it up quite thoroughly. A workers' committee elected by the workers has been established here. If those old experts who stayed behind had not still mastered the technology, the workers' committee would have kicked them out long ago.

Of course, you can’t just look at the records yourself, you also have to ask the workers. It would be best if you go down and experience it with the workers yourself. However, Xiaoya doesn’t have so much time to experience it herself, so she can only settle for the second best and ask the workers how they feel.

Xiaoya looked around and soon saw a dog-headed worker walking alone on the road between the factory and the cafeteria. The girl wanted to go up and talk to it immediately, but then Xiaoya stopped.

After a thought quickly flashed through his mind, Xiaoya took off the Spartacus Regiment badge pinned on his chest and put it in his pocket, then quickly stepped forward.

"Comrade..." Xiaoya had just opened her mouth when the worker subconsciously shrank his neck. He only relaxed after seeing that it was a student he had never seen before.

Xiaoya's eyes narrowed. Something was wrong.

However, on the surface, Xiaoya did not show anything unusual. She just asked the worker some detailed questions as planned.

"Comrade, I'm new here. I'd like to ask, are the wages in our factory good?"

"Okay, okay, it used to take twelve hours, but now eight hours is enough."

"Are you having any difficulties in life? Are you getting paid on time? Let me tell you, in some places, those oppressive classes are still relentless and secretly deducting wages! I've encountered this situation several times before, which is why I came here."

Xiaoya considered her words carefully, and decided not to act like a cadre of the Spartacus Regiment. It was not because of any other reason, but because Xiaoya subconsciously felt that this would bring her closer to the worker and thus alleviate some possible trouble.

Sure enough, after hearing what Xiaoya said, the worker's attitude immediately improved a lot. Although he didn't treat Xiaoya as an acquaintance all of a sudden, at least he didn't reject Xiaoya anymore.

"Oh, who isn't? I just came here because I was too tired from working in the restaurant. I've been here for a month or two now. Hey sister, let me tell you..."

Soon, this dog-headed worker started talking non-stop, and what he said was all nonsense, including how to work as a team and the benefits of working as a team, how to greet the senior manager when meeting him... and even how to use the formulaic answers taught above to deal with members of the Spartacus Group who came to ask questions!

The more Xiaoya listened, the colder her heart grew. How long had it been? Two months! And in just two months, all sorts of deceptions had occurred. The Executive Committee's resolution clearly encouraged the workers' movement to restrain the oppressive class, but also to avoid provoking them too much for the time being.

As a result, when it comes to the grassroots level, it becomes the grassroots staff who help the managers and bosses suppress the workers and even physically punish them?!

The one in front of me was still talking about how to avoid being hurt too much if unfortunately being physically punished. It was obvious that he had some experience in this regard.

Xiaoya's expression didn't change on the surface, but she was angry inside!

"Huh... Big brother, why didn't you go to the workers' patrol team when you were punished? Isn't it right at the door?" Xiaoya suppressed the anger in her heart and asked calmly.

There are reports from all over the country that the workers' movement is too radical. Surely these workers' pickets, which are spontaneously organized by the workers, are not in cahoots with the oppressive classes?

"Oh, you don't understand this, do you? The girls on the workers' picket team can only make those managers less aggressive. I don't know what's wrong with those Spartacus girls now, they're all siding with the managers and bosses. To protect ourselves, we had no choice but to ask the girls to organize a picket team, and that's how the managers' attitude improved..."

Xiaoya's face turned completely dark.

Born from the Fire of War: Chapter 31 This is no longer an ordinary speculator, we must strike hard!

Xiaoya had not expected that the grassroots would suddenly give her a big bomb. She waved goodbye to the unskilled worker who passed on the "survival experience" to her and took a deep breath.

It's possible that one worker's testimony was a misunderstanding, perhaps due to problems with the work methods of grassroots staff. Xiaoya hopes so.

But the results of her subsequent visits to other workers made her heart sink to the bottom.

Unfortunately, what the dog-headed worker said was true, but fortunately, Xiaoya now sees this situation.

There is still time. The workers have spontaneously organized a workers' picket to defend their rights. The masses have not abandoned the Spartacus League and still have hope in it.

Therefore, for the sake of these working masses, Xiaoya decided to restart the nationalization plan that had to be suspended due to the eastward advance of the Pandemonium Guards. As for the counterattack of the oppressed class?

The masses have already spontaneously organized pickets, so why should we fear a counterattack? If they dare to come, we will drown them in the vast sea of ​​the Fifth Campus masses!

Of course, this is one aspect. On the other hand, if it is not implemented, the Spartacus League will probably be drowned along with the oppressing class.

With this thought in mind, Xiaoya immediately rushed to the meeting room of the Gehenna Council headquarters. She wanted to convene an emergency meeting of the executive committee immediately and deal a heavy blow to these hateful oppressive classes!

......

"This is all the information I've gathered. Some grassroots members are deceiving their superiors and colluding with the oppressive class to exploit the workers. If we hadn't clearly stated in writing that we would implement an eight-hour workday and pay a minimum wage, I'm afraid some places would even revert to a twelve-hour workday!"

In the conference room, Xiaoya banged on the table, suppressing her anger. Her angry gaze swept over the other twelve people attending the meeting, and everyone who was seen by Xiaoya couldn't help but shrink their necks.

This was the first time they saw Xiaoya so angry. Although she was the first person in the Spartacus group, Xiaoya was actually very easy to get along with. Even if members of the organization made fun of her, Xiaoya would not get angry, and might even join in the jokes.

As for Eri and Futaba, who were unable to attend the meeting due to other matters and could only attend via video, they had only seen Xiaoya express this level of anger towards the Caesar Group before.

Of course, not only the executive committee members attended the meeting, but also He Xiang, who was attending as a special envoy of the Third International.

Finally, Xiaoya sighed and said, "I am responsible for what happened."

Seeing that Xiaoya didn't continue to get angry, the committee members looked at Xiaoya again, and Xiaoya took the opportunity to raise her voice.

"Comrades, we might think we have succeeded in this work simply by looking at the increase in the number of Spartacus members. Yes, our work is indeed something we can be proud of. In a short period of time, we were able to restore production, mobilize the masses, and even arm a large army to resist Makoto.

"But comrades, such victories have also intoxicated us, we have begun to be carried away by victory, and we have not noticed that those opportunists have also infiltrated our ranks.

"Look, how loud their slogans are! 'Resolutely obey the organization's instructions,' 'We can do anything, please rest assured,' and so on. What reliable assurances! Comrades, including me, think carefully: after we were assigned staff, did we ever personally go to the grassroots to see what things were like?"

Xiaoya became more and more excited as she spoke, but she managed to calm herself down later. From being expelled to returning to school; from being an ordinary student to one of the people who can now stir up the situation in Gehenna, Xiaoya's experience has indeed completely shaped her into a revolutionary.

Perhaps she had some shortcomings in her work, but she already possessed the qualities necessary for a revolutionary: criticism and self-criticism.

"Now the advanced masses have spontaneously organized themselves into pickets. Comrades, even those who previously had no concept of communalism are ahead of us! How can we still be considered the vanguard? But the masses haven't given up on us; they haven't kicked us off to go it alone. So this is our chance to make amends."

Koya knocked on the table, and Anna immediately distributed the documents to the committee members, while Eri and Futaba received an electronic version of the document.

Seeing that the committee members were reading the documents carefully, Xiaoya's resentment dissipated a little. At least everyone here was still a good comrade, and everyone could correct their mistakes.

"This is the result of a temporary statistics by the comrades in the Intelligence Department. Due to time constraints, we did not count all the factories.

"In our survey of over thirty factories, large and small, including military factories, workers in thirteen of them spontaneously organized pickets. These pickets were generally found in factories where Spartacus members were colluding with the oppressive class."

Anna pushed her glasses. She did not ask the people in her own department to do the statistics, but temporarily asked the most reliable intelligence department. Although they were not responsible for this aspect, the comrades in the intelligence department still collected the information.

What’s interesting is that the factories where the pickets were organized and the factories where the grassroots members of the Spartacus League colluded with the oppressive class had a high degree of overlap.

What was said before about the masses being too radical is complete nonsense!

It’s no wonder that the workers are eager to carry out the nationalization movement. When Xiaoya thinks about how he wanted to stop the workers before, his face becomes hot.

[I almost became the villain! They say the public has sharp eyes...]

"Ahem, so comrades, the nationalization movement is imminent. Let's vote now."

Xiaoya started the voting process only after the committee members had finished reading the materials. Judging from the committee members' expressions, it seemed that the information recorded in the document had indeed shocked them.

Especially Eri, her expression was the most grim. It was understandable. She was fighting on the front lines, and these opportunists were stirring up trouble in the back? These were no ordinary opportunists, they were going to be dealt a heavy blow!

As Xiaoya expected, the proposal was passed unanimously. The next step is to discuss how to carry out nationalization and how to deal with the counterattack of the oppressive class.

As for the latter, Xiaoya already has some ideas.

"We have the support of workers and pickets in promoting nationalization, but this alone is not enough. The oppressive classes will not let us do whatever we want. In the worst-case scenario, they may have armed forces of secret organizations." Xiaoya crossed her arms and leaned forward slightly.

"So, Comrade Xiaoya, what you mean is..." Eri in the video seemed to have realized something.

"Yes, we need the Red Army."

Born from the Flames of War: Chapter 32 Everything is going according to plan...

Red Army, Xiaoya now needs the support of the Red Army to carry out forced nationalization.

The oppressed class is not a fool. As the ancient books say, the oppressed class will do its utmost to use various means to defend its fundamental interests. The current situation of the Gehenna Soviet is just that the oppressed class has temporarily gained the upper hand. If a thorough liquidation is not carried out, they will definitely make a comeback.

How should the liquidation be carried out? Xiaoya thought of the example of the Holy Trinity. When she left Hongdong, Wu Hui had told her not to give up the armed struggle. She had also asked Wu Hui if it was possible to complete the revolution peacefully. At that time, Wu Hui had told her that she would see an example of this at the Holy Trinity within three months.

Now Xiaoya has seen that Shengyuan Weihua of Trinity completed the coup by taking control of the Patel Guard. Of course, this does not count as a "revolution". The key point is the administrative secretary of Trinity named Shi Guiwenjie. According to the intelligence of Comrade Hongdong, she seems to belong to the left-wing moderate faction in the Patel faction. Then she was arrested by Shengyuan Weihua who had the armed forces before she even started her reform plan.

Shi Guiwenjie, who represents the interests of the lower classes of the Holy Trinity, has no armed forces at his disposal, yet he dares to undermine the interests of the oppressor class in a game set by the oppressor class. Is this acceptable? He is just going to serve his food.

Therefore, Xiaoya didn't believe that the oppressive classes in the Fifth Campus were unarmed. Therefore, Xiaoya had to rely on the Red Army to crush their resistance and force nationalization. As for calling the Discipline Committee? Sorry, not only Xiaoya, but not even one of the executive committee members present would believe that the Discipline Committee had no vested interests with these oppressive classes.

Perhaps Hina and Iori can firmly implement the purge order issued by the Gehenna Council, but the administrators or secretaries of the Disciplinary Committee below may not be able to do so.

"Comrade Eri, are there any idle Red Army companies on the front line that can be transferred away?" Xiaoya asked.

Eri thought about it. The situation on the front line was now at a stalemate. In addition to four newly formed Red Army artillery companies, the only two Red Army infantry companies deployed on the battlefield were the Red Army.

The artillery company definitely couldn't be transferred back. They were the only ones with heavy firepower on the front lines right now, and using artillery to carry out suppression activities seemed a bit overkill. One of the two infantry companies could be withdrawn. After all, the majority of the frontline forces were occupied by the Discipline Committee, and the two Red Army infantry companies were just doing some supporting work. Taking away one company of a hundred or so men wouldn't have much of an impact. Iori would just have to be informed. After all, this was a joint command. Withdrawing troops silently would cause misunderstandings.

"Yes, Comrade Xiaoya, we can transfer a Red Army infantry company back to the front line."

"Okay, that'll do."

Xiaoya breathed a sigh of relief. With the support of the Red Army and her own personal involvement, she could make the final decision and say that even if the oppressive class called the Caesar Group, she would still fight.

The content of the subsequent meetings was nothing more than some detailed issues, including how to mobilize the workers, organize workers' committees, and how to deal with the oppressed class and the old experts.

The secretary in charge of recording the meeting kept recording the content of the meeting in his notebook. Now that the Spartacus Group has more people, there is no need for Xiaoya to serve as secretary.

Moreover, their secretary is simply a secretary, which is different from the secretary recorded in ancient books.

......

"Hurry, hurry, act fast!"

The train stopped at the platform, and a company of Red Army soldiers immediately ran off in an orderly manner.

Unlike the Pandemonium, due to Nomiya, the railway line of Highland College, which is located in the area controlled by the Gehenna Soviet and its allies, cooperates very well with the work of the coalition forces. As long as the coalition forces have a troop dispatch mission, as long as they inform the students of Highland College, they will immediately arrange a train.

It was different on the Pandemonium side. The students of Highland College, who strictly adhered to neutrality, had their own departure schedule. If the Pandemonium Guards wanted to quickly and massively deploy their forces, they had to follow this schedule. If it was not within the specified timeframe, then there would be no vehicles. This also led to many of the Pandemonium Guards' forces being deployed via highway trucks. Makoto was so angry that her teeth itched, but she had no choice. Gehenna was not under her control to begin with. If she offended Highland College again, she would have a hard time in the future.

If the students of Highland College went on strike, Makoto didn't dare to think about what would happen to the supply of materials in the central area and the logistics and transportation between different places. The major manufacturers would definitely suffer huge losses and then oppose her rule. That would be bad, so at least for now, Makoto couldn't break off relations with Highland College.

The Red Army's miscellaneous members immediately blocked the platform. They came back at night, and this deployment was considered a secret operation. Only Iori and a few senior officials from the third and fourth campuses knew about it in the coalition.

Iori agreed readily. Although she didn't know why the Red Army wanted to dispatch troops back, the Red Army's artillery units helped them share a lot of pressure, so Iori didn't care why.

As for the Hot Spring Development Department of the Third Campus and Sena and Fumika, who were renamed the Provisional Council of the Fourth Campus, they had no control over the Red Army's deployment, so this time Xiaoya and the others wanted to take advantage of the information gap to launch a surprise attack and catch the oppressive classes off guard.

Xingnai has compiled a list of factories that have spontaneously organized pickets, and Xiaoya and the others, based on the list, bypassed the Spartacus staff in these factories and instead mobilized Spartacus staff from other places to contact the workers' pickets.

Although both sides were a little nervous when they first met, fortunately the workers' pickets remained restrained and did not attack the staff. After the two sides communicated, they heard that the Spartacus Corps was preparing to take action against the oppressed class, and the workers' pickets immediately agreed to cooperate with the mission.

"Report to Comrade Chairman! All 201 members of the Second Company of the Red Army have arrived!"

A small group of people came over and reported to Xiaoya, who had been waiting on the platform for a long time, that she was the company commander of this company, and the deputy company commander and political commissar was organizing the other small groups of people to line up.

"Very good. Inform the comrades to begin the operation according to the plan. Be careful to move quickly and not to disturb the masses too much. Those who are oppressed will be knocked unconscious on the spot if they dare to resist."

Xiaoya didn't say much. These Red Army ragtag guys had been fighting on the front line for more than half a month. They were no longer as loose as when they were first formed. With their current level, they would not be afraid even if they encountered bad girls three times their size. Moreover, the mission details had been sent to them through Maomaotao when they were still on the train. Now they just had to follow the plan.

Born from the flames of war: Chapter 33: Knock over with one punch!

The night in the Fifth Campus was quiet. Since there were no fixed-wing aircraft in Kivotos, and missiles were banned in the entire Kivotos, there was no need to fear any air raids. Therefore, there was no blackout in the Fifth Campus, and everyone could continue to do their activities at night.

It was only because of the need for stability in the rear of the war that the Gehenna Soviet implemented a curfew policy. Now it was one in the morning and the streets outside were empty.

Xiaoya silently led the Red Army team along the street. The Fifth Campus was a port city. In order to facilitate freight transportation, the station of Highland College was not far from the port, and there was a track directly connected to the port.

Xiaoya and the others now have to cross the city to the industrial area, starting with the military factories and clearing out the businesses one by one.

......

In the industrial zone, the worker pickets that had already come into contact with other Spartacus Corps staff members did not leave the factory. Instead, they gathered in the factories one by one and even pulled the managers who were supposed to be off work and refused to let them go, saying that they wanted to negotiate their salary and benefits.

In fact, the purpose was to hold these guys back so that the Red Army could come and wipe them out. Therefore, the pickets and workers' representatives did not come up with any plans. They just let the managers come up with solutions themselves. Of course, no matter how generous the conditions offered by the managers were, they would not let them leave.

"I'm warning you, if you don't let me go, I'm going to notify the Spartacus staff! You're breaking the law!"

Inside the military factory, a manager who was trapped in an office was making harsh remarks in a timid manner. He was surrounded by managers of all levels in the factory. Most of them were old managers who stayed on after the Spartacus Corps took over the Fifth Campus. A few were newly promoted personnel, but now they were also standing anxiously with the other managers.

The Spartacus Corps did not change the old production relations, but only made some improvements, so these newly promoted personnel quickly sided with the running dogs of the oppressive class.

"Haha, go ahead and sue me. Anyway, you won't be able to leave here today!"

The worker patrol member sneered, the gun in her hand slightly raised, with a threatening look. After seeing this, the managers did not dare to continue to be arrogant, and could only mutter curse words in their hearts.

There is no way, they don’t have guns. I heard that the boss is armed, but unfortunately they are just lackeys and have no power to mobilize these forces. They don’t even know where these armed forces are hiding.

Besides, they have been disarmed now, and their communication tools such as mobile phones have been taken away by the workers' pickets. They can only rage helplessly here.

"Damn it... you lowlifes! When we report this to the Spartacus staff, you'll definitely be in for a rough patch!"

"Who will report this to the Spartacus staff?"

The manager was still shouting, but Xiaoya pushed the door open and came in from behind. When she heard what the manager said, she was happy. She didn't expect that there was really collusion here. Now she confessed it herself.

"If it's not you, then who else could it be?"
