Chapter 351: Orwell

"It's nice to meet you." The visitor is thin, with a hooked nose, and wearing a navy blue suit, looking very energetic.

Shaking hands with each other, Orwell always feels, where does he seem to have seen this person?

"Mr. Orwell, your novel is really well written!" The visitor sat down and said to Orwell: "I have read all the manuscripts of your book, although it is a fairy tale, the implications are The truth is so profound."

The compliments from the people made Orwell feel embarrassed. His wife Irene had quietly retired. At this time, she had to be a foil with peace of mind.

"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. When equality is also distinguished between high and low, the so-called equality is nothing but a self-deception lie, and the so-called freedom has become a complete joke, humble The civilians can only struggle in silence in a difficult situation." The man continued to say.

These were words from Orwell's Animal Farm. He really didn't expect that the other party could say it so fluently, apparently he had really read his entire book.

This sentence, of course, is a sentence that Orwell deeply understands. In Spain, as a left-wing intellectual, he resolutely took up arms and wanted to fight for justice and freedom.

However, on the Spanish battlefield, he was completely disappointed. The failure of the Spanish Civil War was not because of how strong Franco’s army was, but because of the mutual intrusion of the left-wing parties. As a Trotskyist, Orwell was almost too close. Was washed away.

This caused Orwell's thinking to undergo a great change. Through his own experience and his understanding of a series of events such as the Great Purge of the Soviet Union, he had his own judgment on the nature of the Soviet Union under Stalin's rule.

It is inconvenient to write facts, so you can only rely on fairy tales.

The sentence that the other party said just now is what Orwell feels most deeply. The so-called equality and freedom are all his own wishful thinking. In this world, there is no such thing.

It's stupid to even want to pursue these things.

"Okay, let's talk about the issue of publishing. We plan to publish 400,000 copies in advance..."

The talks upstairs are still going on, Irene is downstairs, waiting patiently, outside the window, spring is beautiful.

At this moment, suddenly, she heard a deep cry that seemed to come from the next door.

what happened?

The enthusiasm and friendliness of the neighbors made Irene be close to them. Now, hearing the cry, Irene immediately walked towards the neighbor's house.

When she walked over, she happened to look at the neighbor's mistress, Osivia, who was in her fifties, sitting on a chair, crying.

And her wife, Becker, was also full of tears at this time, but did not cry.

"Our son is great!" Becker said: "He killed five Polish devils alone, all of them were cavalry. The last one was killed with a grenade, and he did not shame us!"

Irene's brain was blank, and she saw the white death notice on the table.

Neltz, the only son of the couple, died on the battlefield in Poland. Now is the moment when the death notice arrives at their home.

Erin was impressed by the death. She was in Spain almost every day. The disappearance of every living life would make her feel the cruelty of war.

At the same time, going deeper, she and her husband's thoughts gradually approached. There is no right or wrong, no justice and injustice, as long as there are contradictions and disputes, there will be war.

"Yes, our son has also been regarded as a battle hero. Their entire camp is a hero!" Becker shouted to his wife: "We are proud of having such a son!"

Even though he said that, tears still flowed from the corner of his eyes.

All parents hope that their children are safe.

At this time, Becker saw Erin and said, "Eileen, are you here? Sit down."

"Two, please be sorry." At this time, Irene didn't know what to say.

"Neltz died in battle, we are very sad, but we are also proud of him." At this time, Osivia had stopped crying, and she said to Ai Lin: "I Lin, can you do us a favor? "

"Of course." Irene said.

"Your husband is a writer. Can he write the story of our Neltz battle?" Osivia said to Irene.

It is a wish of the two old men to write down the battle story of his son.

In the face of this request, what can Osivia say? My husband just writes fairy tales?

"Yes." Just then, a voice came from the door.

I don't know when, at the door, there were two more people. One was Irene's husband, Orwell, and the other was a contact for that publishing house.

The two looked at Orwell, and the sound they had just heard came from Orwell's mouth.

Orwell and the visitor had already concluded their negotiations. When they came out, they heard the movement next door, so they came over. When he heard the old couple's request, Orwell knew that he had no choice but to rely on the other party's midnight When he sent his wife to the hospital, he needed to help.

And the visitor beside Orwell was also very happy at this time: "Mr. Orwell, if you need it, I will help at any time, find someone to take you to the battlefield at that time, and find some parties for consultation."

? Orwell turned his head in confusion and looked at the visitors of this publishing house. He has such great ability?

By this time, Becker had recognized it.

"Goebbels? You are the Minister of Propaganda of our empire, Goebbels?" Becker took a few steps, wanting to see more clearly~www.novelhall.com~Yes, it’s me, Neltz is good In the same way, he is an ordinary warrior and our proudest warrior. He is the glory of the empire and our hero. "Goebbels said: "The Empire will not make these heroes nameless." "

Orwell was also taken aback. He really didn't expect that the person who had just come to talk with him about publishing was not from the publishing house, but from the propaganda minister of the empire. No wonder he just looked familiar.

Paul Joseph Goebbels, German statesman, orator. He is good at speaking and is known as the "genius of propaganda" and "Nazi mouthpiece". He defended Hitler's regime with an iron fist and maintained the system of the Third Reich, and was regarded as the "person who created Hitler."

There is sympathy and tit-for-tat. Goebbels can speak eloquently, and he has obtained a Ph.D. degree. He disagrees with the eloquence of ordinary people, but sincerely admires Hitler's eloquence.

In 1922, Goebbels heard Hitler's speech and immediately decided to join the Nazi Party. A few years later, he clashed with Hitler’s ideas, but after listening to Hitler’s three-hour "extremely wonderful" speech, he immediately "doubt his views" and decided to bow to "this great man, a political genius." pay tribute".

Goebbels was a loyal man, and he stayed with Hitler until the last moment. Soon after Hitler committed suicide, Goebbels and his wife committed suicide in the basement of the Imperial Chancellery at 8 p.m. after poisoning his six children. .

When the empire is destroyed, he will follow the empire. Such a person can be regarded as a member of the troubled times.

Now, some changes have taken place in history. After Hitler's assassination, Goebbels was also filled with outrage. Moreover, Cyrek was the person who was with Hitler at first and was the second-in-command in the party. Therefore, Goebbels chose to continue to follow Greece. Rick, avenge the head of state.
