chapter 4

The animals not only did the Rebellion on their own farm they also tried to encourage the animal on neighboring farms and advertised the song - “Beasts of England” and it was spread quickly among the animals in England seemly it could be heard in everywhere. On the other hands, during these days, Mr. Jones only spent his time at Red Lion and complained. Mr. Pilkington who owned Foxwood, and Mr. Frederick who owned Pinchfield, they also are two characters who took no interests with each other, but this time, both of them were frightened by the Rebellion on Animal Farm and worried if their animals would follow them as well. Before they just thought of this as a stupid thing owning to animals cannot get along with each other since it must against the laws of Nature.

Early in October, Mr. Jones together with other men who come from another farms attempted the recapture of the farm for their own purposes.

On the side of the animals, they had prepared it for a long time, Snowball had already learned a lot about the military. It was an extremely violent battle. Even though men had guns in hands, but with the great power of the animals, the animals won at last, especially Boxer’s bravely work and Snowball’s intelligence. But when Boxer killed a man he cried “I had no intention of doing that.” While Snowball told him not to feel guilty about it owning to “war is war. The only good human being is a dead one.” And Boxer showed his opinion that “I have no wish to take life, not even human life.” And on the other hand Mollie had just disappeared.

Finally Boxer and Napoleon had received a metal as “Animal Hero, First Class”. And they called this battle “the Battle of the Crowshed.” the Rebellion would be celebrated on October the twelfth every year.
