"The main ones, I think, are nothing more than two points, the key candidates and the training content." These were actually considered by Keating for Verak, but he didn't expect that as the big plan changed, he led the training class, and these preparations were ultimately used.
Regarding himself, "Both of these points are very important. We must give priority to training those who perform well. Comrade Piaf must know this better than the two of us who are new here, so I leave it to you."
"Well, how many people do you think we need?" Piaf took over the task of selecting training personnel.
Keating groaned: "Based on our capabilities, around fifty people are the best."
"Is fifty people too few? We have to absorb as many new members as possible, and the backbone framework must be large enough." When Verak heard the fifty people, he raised an objection, "Or are you just
Are you going to train fifty people for the time being?”
"This involves the second point I mentioned, which is the training content." Keating methodically introduced what needs to be done in the training class plan, "Comrade Morais gave us three days, and we are here
In three days, we need to determine the teaching content, then estimate how long the training will take based on the teaching content, and then determine how many sessions of students will be trained according to the training time."
"Can't we just organize a session with enough people? This way we will have plenty of training time." Piaf disagreed. In her opinion, if we follow Keating's method, we don't have much time.
Divided into several periods, with an average study period of about ten days, how can students learn enough things?
Keating explained his thinking: "I initially thought like you, thinking that it would be best to do this thing in one go, but after careful consideration, I found that this is not feasible. How many students do we need to train?
This is an unknown number, but it should be at least a few hundred. Based on our ability, we can train hundreds of people at once. The training time is guaranteed, but how can the training quality be maintained at a qualified level?"
"Indeed, if hundreds of people can't see it, it will only slow down the progress in the end." Verak agreed.
"The adoption of batch learning can reduce our pressure and ensure the quality of training. On the other hand, it can also continuously output trained students as quickly as possible. And I only plan to use the first period as a trial.
After the second phase has gained experience, we can recruit 100 people. In the third phase, some outstanding students will be selected to assist us in teaching. The number of trainings may be even greater. If we can train four or five batches or more within forty days
, that is basically enough, and we have completed our mission." Keating said.
With hundreds of people learning together, it may take a long time to complete the training. After batches, speed, and quality have been improved, according to Keating Road's estimate, the first batch of trainees can try to become the backbone in ten days.
The experience in the second and third periods has been enriched, and some students have been selected to assist in the training. By then, the number of people trained in each period can be increased to several hundred.
"This is better." Compared to Keating, who had been thinking about it all afternoon, Piaf naturally did not think carefully in a short time, but she quickly accepted Keating's idea, "Then we must first determine the training
What exactly is the content?”
"I think the training content must be streamlined to make way for the training cycle." Verak said, "Avoid many complicated things that are not of great value at the moment to take up too much time and consume too much energy."
"Tell me, what do you think must be trained?" Keating asked after listening.
The first one has no suspense.
"Equality." Verak blurted out, "As a member of the Equality Society, how can we be qualified if we don't even know what we are going to do, why we are doing it, and some deeper things."
"In terms of combat." Piaf followed closely and said, "I don't think everyone in our Equality Association must be able to use guns or kill people, but we must have a strong enough armed force. To capture the government building, we
It requires enough manpower, and the members responsible for combat operations must at least learn to use weapons."
Verac and Piaf talked several times in succession. Keating thought thoughtfully after listening: "The most important thing at the moment is the training of equality and combat capabilities. Other aspects are not necessary in the short term. In addition,
We also need to learn to recognize people during training. Some people are good at management, and some are good at financial management. If we send them to fight, it will only destroy their value."
"Yes." Verak nodded.
“Almost all the formal members of our Equality Association have a copy of Equality Theory. I can’t say how well they understand it. The basic content is still clear. So I think that when training in this aspect, the proportion of time can be reduced and more time can be spent.
Leave it to combat training that has no foundation and requires a long period of training to achieve combat effectiveness." Piaf suggested again.
"It makes sense. Then we will determine the detailed learning content and the estimated training time." Keating said, "In addition, I also plan to prepare special training classes. From each batch of students,
Pick parts and study them over a long period of time."
Explain some of the deeper aspects of "The Theory of Equality" and train basic combat capabilities. These are the things that must be possessed when the Equality Society opens the curtain to seize power and fights head-on with the government for a long time.
That is, spiritual weapons and practical weapons.
Only with all-round weapons can you be invincible.
However, Keating does not want to limit himself to this. His most valuable knowledge goes beyond this. He wants to cultivate more outstanding members who can stand alone and provide different aspects of support for the Equality Society, just like Verak.
He has some insights into military matters.
He also has some insights into medicine.
Politics, language, economics, management... He knows almost everything.
If what he has accumulated over the decades when he stood at the top of this country can be transmitted, it will definitely inject a strong force into the equality society.
And this is also in line with their original intention of establishing the training class early on, to train and discover outstanding talents.
"Well, I agree with Teacher Keating's idea." Verak faced Piaf and explained the situation to him, "Before the meeting, we heard that the Equality Association had suspended training courses, and we thought about starting them again. At that time
We planned to take advantage of Teacher Keating to train various talents, but we did not expect that such a plan was decided by chance during the meeting. We can only serve the plan first and provide targeted training according to the needs of the plan.
."
"But you still want to maintain the original intention without affecting the plan? Of course there is no problem. I support it. What we need to do now is to help us open up the situation for equality in the short term. What you really consider can
It will provide us with an important part of the key strength in the future." Piaf also has a long-term vision. She agrees with Verak and Keating's idea of setting up additional special training classes, and is even willing to provide support within her ability. "I only have one point about this.
I would say, don’t ignore the power of women.”
"Of course." Verak doesn't think that gender differences will determine the quality of the enthusiastic Equality members.
Piaf was used to men's contempt for women. She joined the Equality Society with the original intention of speaking out for women and striving for equality between men and women. Then she realized in the Equality Society that the first thing to be achieved was equality between people.
, just let go of the present and focus on the new world that includes the present.
World: "Women are being oppressed, their voices are less likely to be heard, and the environment they live in is even worse. It seems that they are not worthy of the same rights as men by birth, but this does not mean that they do not have enough
Ability to do the same thing as you."
This is indeed the current situation of women's existence. Verak has seen many cruel facts that women have to face in the slums.
"They just lack equal opportunities. They can be better than anyone else," Piaf said.
She is a powerful proof of that.
Start your own newspapers, write novels, live your life not according to male requirements, and be a free and independent woman.
Verak nodded solemnly: "Then let such equality begin to be realized in our training classes."
The three of them discussed in the conference room for a long time. They originally agreed to take a rest at twelve o'clock, but they unknowingly talked about it at one o'clock in the morning.
"Now that the general things have been decided, the work to be done tomorrow is to initially determine the detailed training content and preliminary training personnel." After nearly two hours of discussion, Keating breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed the cloth.
With bloodshot eyes, he ended the meeting and said, "Let's all go and rest now."
"Well, you should go back and rest early. Only by maintaining sufficient energy can you get proportional feedback." Piaf stood up and told Keating.
Keating smiled back: "Same for you."
"Then let's meet here at eight o'clock tomorrow." Verak looked at the clock and suggested a time.
"How about nine o'clock? It's already after one o'clock now. With all the miscellaneous things and sleeping, it might be a bit too early." Piaf thought for Keating's sake.
"Time is very important. We may not be able to finalize the training in two days. One day earlier means that we can absorb one more day of manpower and train one more day of things." Keating said.
Piaf only said so much out of concern for the elderly. Since Keating had stated many times that she was fine, she no longer pressed for anything: "Okay, let's meet here at eight o'clock tomorrow and leave the rest
Everything should be settled as soon as possible.”
Verak said "hmm".
"Then I'll leave first." Piaf left the conference room first.
"Teacher, can your body still bear it?" Verak asked about Keating's condition.
"It's okay. I've been sitting in jail for too long. Now I just want to sleep endlessly to make up for all the wasted time." Keating stood up slowly and walked towards the door.
Verak quickly came to Keating's side, supported Keating with one hand, and opened the door of the conference room with the other: "You can persist better than me."
"You are a good role model." Keating smiled.
"You are also a good role model."
While chatting and joking, the two went out and passed the main conference room.
In the main conference room, the discussion on the battle plan to capture the government building has not yet ended. Morais was smoking against the wall outside the door to soothe his nerves. When he saw Verak and Keating coming out, he said: "You have just finished talking? Did you talk well?"
How about it?"
"The preliminary things have been decided, and we will implement the more detailed ones tomorrow." Verak replied, "By the way, combat training will account for a large proportion. You are professional in this area. Let's discuss it together tomorrow.
"
"Okay, call me anytime tomorrow." Morais didn't know how late the conversation would be tonight, but he still agreed to Verak, "Comrade Keating, how are you? Can your body handle staying up so late?"
Keating said: "I'm fine, but you should also pay attention to rest and don't open the meeting too late."
"Don't worry."
"Then let's go first." Verak and Keating were preparing to return to the hotel next door through the underground passage to rest. There will be a lot of work tomorrow.
"Hey, wait." Morais suddenly remembered something. He threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out. He took out two folded papers from his pocket and handed them to Verak, "Don't you want me to get you a copy?"
Can Chris write poetry?"
Verak took the paper, opened it and took a look at the name of the poem "Intrachonelle": "I had completely forgotten about it."
"Okay, nothing else. See you tomorrow." After handing the poem to Verak, Morais returned to the main conference room and continued to discuss matters with other cadres.
"What is this?" Keating looked at the paper unfolded in Verak's hand.
"Ah... it's a poem that Chris wrote before his death." Verak glanced at it roughly, "When I went to the cemetery to see Colin in the afternoon, I accidentally discovered that they also built a tomb for Chris, but because of Chris,
Reese has a special status, so he can only be referred to as 'Intrachonaire', which is this poem."
Keating then briefly glanced at the content of the poem: "It's very powerful and magnificent."
"Well." Verak was very curious about what 'Internachonelle' meant. He put the paper away, "It's getting late, let's go and rest soon."
"Do you want to arrange Diaz, Nord, and Murphy to be among the first batch of students?" Keating asked on the way back.
These three are all very important people to Verak, and they trust him unconditionally: "Yes, it's not just basic training, I also hope that they can learn more from you."
"Okay." Keating had no objection.
"As for the gold, do you think we should arrange for someone to investigate it now?" Verak was a little worried that gold is not that safe now.
After coming out, they went straight to Lezein without even bothering to go to Dunman's capital, Old Nanyue, to investigate the gold situation.
"Don't worry, there's a civil war going on over there right now and it's very chaotic. Even if there is really a problem with Gold, it won't take long. After we finish capturing the government building, we can go there in person." Keating said to Gold.
Things are very patient.
Seeing that Keating was so calm, Verak naturally became less anxious: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's talk about it after this period of work is over."
