Well, here we are in chapter 4 of George Orwell’s Animal Farm, the attempted revenge of Mr. Jones. The drunken farmer returns to the farm with a gang of supporters from adjoining lots and tries to forcefully take back his land. The animals repulse their attack, injuring several and killing one. One sheep is killed.
The scene of course is reminiscent of how several capitalist countries converged on the Soviet Union after the end of the First World War and attempted to overthrow the Bolshevik regime. The newly formed Red Army, headed by Leon Trotsky (Snowball in this book) managed to defeat the allied forces. However, the bloodies civil war in history lay ahead for the new regime before Vladimir Lenin could consolidate his power over the entire country.
After their victory, the animals institute two medals for bravery.
