Answer: The General wouldn't have realized he was the Drummer boy, he would have played the drum slowly and the soldiers would have lost the war.
Explanation: When the General heard the drum he realized that the boy was "the heart of the army". He told the boy that if he played his drum rapidly, the soldiers would feel less pain and be braver, because the sound would be like "their armor".

Explanation:
Mollie, the cat, and Benjamin are depicted as animals who are not concerned about the Rebellion and have no apparent political affiliations.
Mollie only concerns about the revolution are ones prompted by her ego,
Benjamin stubbornly refuses to become enthusiastic about the rebellion. Benjamin only remarks, "Donkeys live a long time. None of you has ever seen a dead donkey."
The cat does have significance, but it's hard to say who exactly she represents.
She skulks around and doesn't do any work, votes for both sides, and makes people satisfied enough that she never actually has to do anything.
A good question to ask her is:
When did she start writing?
What gave her the idea to write her book?
What is her favorite place to write?
How does she sit still long enough to write (That's something I can't do for more than a few minutes, so I'd like to know!)
