The more things get bigger and bigger, the more things get worse, and it's getting worse and worse. It's also more and more trouble for Lenin. It's said that if you take Tukhachevsky, Trotsky will be lame when the Military Commission is lame. If you don't take Tukhachevsky, how can this matter end? After all, Tukhachevsky is making the matter very big now, and it's impossible for both sides to give a conclusion.

So when Trotsky entered Lenin's office, he could see that Lenin's face looked quite bad, which made Trotsky's heart skip.

"Comrade Trotsky, how many years have we been working together?"

This question made Trotsky very stunned, and a very bad premonition surged in his heart. However, before he could speak, Lenin said to himself: "From 1905, we have fought together for 29 years, and next year will be the thirty years... Thirty years! Thirty years are the blink of an eye..."

Trotsky's bad feeling became stronger and stronger. Could it be that something was a major change? Is Lenin not going to let him take over? Thinking of this, Trotsky couldn't help but feel a little trembling.

But Lenin did not notice Trotsky's strangeness at all. The tutor fell into memories and kept saying: "I still remember the scene when we first met in London, and even more so when we were ecstatic when the October Revolution was victorious..."

Trotsky tried hard to control his trembling voice and asked anxiously: "Comrade Lenin, are you?"

Lenin looked up at Trotsky and said calmly: "Stalin and Sverdlov have just arrived..."

This sentence almost knocked down Trotsky because he knew very well what it meant to meet Lenin with Stalin and Sverdlov in front of him. Could it be that everything is over?!

At that time, Trotsky's knees were weak and he almost collapsed to the ground. However, Lenin supported him with one sentence: "I don't agree with their approach!"

Trotsky looked at Lenin straight, and he didn't believe his ears, but Lenin really meant this: "Comrade Mikhail did make a mistake this time, but this mistake is not unforgivable. He still made outstanding contributions to the regularization of the Red Army in the 1920s and 1930s. Just because of a little problem, he defeated a comrade with outstanding achievements. This is too cruel... Can't our comrades be a little more tolerant?"

Trotsky couldn't answer this question. Where there were people, there would be a world of martial arts. Where there were worlds, there would be a world of interests. Now it is a pure dispute over interests. No one would tolerate huge political interests.

Lenin sighed, and he knew that this question was a bit naive and there was no answer at all. Has he been tolerant before? It should be said that no, since even his great mentor cannot tolerate it, how could he ask those below who are inferior to him to tolerate it?

In fact, hoping to solve problems with tolerance is equivalent to putting the hope of curbing crime on morality and conscience, which is unreliable no matter how you look at it. Lenin also deeply realized this. He realized that the biggest failure during his term of office was the failure to improve the system construction within the party and the failure to establish an effective set of rules and regulations. Instead, he handed over everything about the party to professional revolutionaries, hoping to solve problems with high-quality "people".

Obviously, "people" are unreliable and unreliable. When the power in the hands of revolutionaries becomes greater and greater, their ambitions will become greater and greater. Look at Sverdlov in 1917 and Sverdlov in 1934, are they still the same person?

Not only Sverdlov, but a large number of old revolutionaries kept falling in front of power and becoming captives of power desire, gradually becoming a face to the bureaucrats of the Tsarist era. When they thought that all this happened under his nose, Lenin couldn't help but feel heartbroken. What made Lenin even more painful was that he had no ability to turn it around and he had no time!

However, Lenin could never do it even if he lets all this happen. Faced with such a bad situation, Lenin believed that he had to start and set an example.

For the whole afternoon, Lenin and Trotsky communicated in the office, joined forces to overthrow the two major mentors who led the Russian proletarian revolution, and finally joined hands after the October Revolution!

On July 17, 1934, the day of the July bloodshed incident in which the Bolsheviks first tried to seize power in 1917, was exactly 17 years ago. On the day when the party commemorated the incident in a high-profile manner, Lenin made a decision in front of all the Central Committee members attending the meeting.

"Comrade Tukhachevsky was removed from his post as Chief of General Staff and transferred him to serve as the First Vice-Committee of the People's Committee of National Defense. The work of the Chief of General Staff is temporarily represented by Comrade Yegorov. Comrade Gamarnik was also removed from his post as Deputy Director of the General Political Department, and his work was taken over by Comrade Blin (formerly Political Commissar of the Belarusian Military Region)."

At first glance, the results seem to be very unfavorable to Trotsky and Tukhachevsky, but the mentor made many adjustments at the same time: "Comrade Shao Wumian was removed from the position of editor-in-chief of Pravda, Molotov's Central Propaganda Minister, Comrade Luzutak's first secretary of the Organization Bureau, and Comrade Andre Petrovic's position as Director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff..."

The action was quite intense, especially the removal of Comrade Shao Wumian from the positions of editor-in-chief of Pravda and Molotov from the position of Propaganda Minister of the Central Committee. This was a bombshell. The party's mouthpiece department replaced him. This was really a big deal. If he didn't do it well, it would be a bloody storm. Maybe Stalin and Sverdlov would counterattack together, and even Lenin would be able to see it.

However, what is surprising is that Stalin did not counterattack. He calmly accepted the result of his two confidants being dismissed. The reason was later, because Lenin also removed the position of vice chairman of the Trotsky People's Committee, and Stalin was replaced!!

This change is quite surprising. Logically speaking, Trotsky, who will succeed the next term, should retain the position of Vice Chairman of the People's Committee. It seems inappropriate to dismiss him at this time!

But Lenin thought it was appropriate. He used the Vice Chairman of the People's Committee to weaken the existence of Stalin's real power department in the Party Central Committee. This was actually a advantage. After all, Trotsky still retained the position of Chairman of the Military Commission, and Tukhachevsky was just removed from the Chief of Staff, and the identity of a member of the Military Commission was still retained. This transformation was actually beneficial to Trotsky.

So why did Stalin accept it? No matter how he looked at it, it was not very beneficial to him. He had no reason to sit back and wait for death, right? Lenin still had a solution. The first secretary of the Organization Bureau of Luzutak was handed over to Molotov. Stalin finally captured the Organization Department, which made Stalin unable to say that the mentor was unfair.

Even another Sverdlov, who suffered a great loss, could not explode the sting. Li Xiaofeng took over the General Political Department. The General Staff intelligence department had to let go, and there was nothing to say. Lu Zutak also became a member of the People's Workers' Committee and vice chairman of the Supreme National Economic Commission, and Lu Zutak had no reason to be dissatisfied.

After this series of transformations and transactions, all forces were not completely satisfied, but at least they could tolerate it. Lenin also made the forces in all aspects more balanced through these series of actions. However, this was not the end for him. In fact, the previous actions were just the beginning.

In November, at the special plenary session of the Central Committee celebrating the 17th anniversary of the victory of the October Revolution, Lenin made another super big move.

"The Politburo's work is quite heavy, and the existing staffing is no longer competent for these heavy tasks. It is imperative to expand the Politburo."

The enlarged Politburo meeting was held immediately with the advocacy of Lenin and Trotsky's full support. After a fierce confrontation, the Politburo of the five elders was expanded to nine people, namely: Lenin, Trotsky, Sverdlov, Stalin, Derrensky, Kalinin, Kamenev, Zinoviev, and Luzutak. It can be said that only Bukharin, who had "cultivated due to illness" in the previous alternate committee, could not be promoted to normal.

In this way, the fixed structure of the Politburo formed in 17 years was completely broken, and the power was reshuffled, and all forces needed to work harder. Obviously, this action caused the supreme power class of the Soviet Union to fall into turmoil, and what Lenin and Trotsky needed was this turbulent window period because their actions were not over yet.

Just when the Central Committee just elected a group of new alternate members: Gubishev, Li Xiaofeng, Orzhongnikize, and Ulitsky, Lenin announced another important news, announcing that he would resign as chairman of the People's Committee and nominate Trotsky to replace him as chairman of the People's Committee!

"Comrade Lenin is clearly trying to pave the way for Trotsky. We cannot be foolishly led by him!" Stalin said indignantly.

"Then what are you going to do? Oppose?" Li Xiaofeng sneered.

Indeed, with the reshuffle of the Politburo, the Sverdlov-Stalin alliance was greatly weakened. Among the nine elders, they only had three votes, and it was difficult to dominate the Politburo. Among the other elders, Lenin and Trotsky were already wearing pairs of pants, and Kalinin was a fence-between, and they were unable to rely on the fact that Lenin and Trotsky reconciliation, and now they accounted for four votes, which was quite troublesome.

"It seems that Comrade Lenin has made up his mind. Unexpectedly, after he retreats next year, Ulitsky will take over his position. In the future, we will deal with the Tut-Jia-Jia alliance. It seems that we must win over Kalinin in advance!" Sverdlov smiled bitterly.

Indeed, after Lenin's reorganization, the forces of the Trotskyists and the Lenin factions were really close to a considerable balance. Even if Stalin and Xiao Si did not pull Kalinin over quickly, they would still be at a considerable disadvantage.

"It is one aspect to win over Kalinin, but we cannot defend passively, we should take the initiative!" Stalin also gave his suggestion, "We have an unreliable Kalinin here, and Trotsky also have unreliable Kaminev and Zinoviev. Comrade Lenin can barely pinch them together, but Trotsky may not be able to do it. We should take the initiative to find ways to disintegrate their political alliance, and the key target is Zinoviev. I know him, and he will never be willing to work hard for Trotsky!"

"The most important thing now is not the People's Committee and the Politburo! It is no longer meaningful to pay attention to Comrade Lenin's resignation and the major changes in the Politburo!" Li Xiaofeng suddenly spoke.

However, his remarks did not receive much response. What is the importance of the People's Committee and the Politburo?

"The Party Committee and the Military Commission are now more important than the Political Bureau!" Li Xiaofeng said, "We are already at a disadvantage in the People's Committee and the Political Bureau. But we have certain advantages in the Military Commission and the Party Committee! But we must also realize that this advantage is very weak. If you are not careful, even once Comrade Lenin and Trotsky launch a new offensive in these two departments, our advantages will immediately disappear!"

"What do you mean?" Stalin asked in a state of emotion.

"If we want to change the passiveness, we must take the initiative!" Li Xiaofeng said calmly, "We had been concerned about Comrade Lenin's attitude before, believing that Comrade Lenin would also safeguard our basic rights and interests, so we have always tolerated it. But now the situation is very obvious. Comrade Lenin is ready to fully support Trotsky. We will suppress us in a complete manner. We can no longer hesitate and wait!"

Li Xiaofeng's words made the atmosphere in the small conference room suddenly solemn, because both Stalin and Sverdlov were both emotional and fearful of the mentor, which caught Lenin off guard continuously. Otherwise, with the previous forces of the two families, Lenin would not be able to do anything!

Even now, even Stalin and Sverdlov have been forced into a corner by Lenin, allowing them to break up with Lenin as Li Xiaofeng said. They neither want nor dare to.

"We can't hesitate anymore! If we hesitate, we will continue to lose the only remaining advantages of the Military Commission and the Party Committee. We have no way out!" Li Xiaofeng looked at Stalin and Sverdlov hesitantly and couldn't help but roar.

This sound made Migoyang and Zhidanov wake up immediately, and immediately followed up and shouted: "Comrade Andre is right, we can't wait any longer!"

Stalin looked at Sverdlov, and Sverdlov also looked at him. None of the brothers spoke, and no one was determined. After a long time, Xiao Si said: "Comrade Luzutak, what do you think?"

Ruzutak is currently the third giant of the Sverdlov-Stalin Group. As a person second only to Sir and Stalin, his opinions are quite important.

In fact, Lu Zutak was also quite entangled. He was also promoted by Lenin and had a lot of feelings for his mentor. Now that he is opposed to Lenin, he is really unable to make up his mind.

Seeing the situation in a stalemate, Li Xiaofeng had to say again: "Comrades, we are not going to oppose Comrade Lenin now. Are we saving ourselves? Do you understand? If we do not take measures, what awaits us will be crushed step by step!"

This sentence woke Stalin up. He was the darkest man back then. His relationship with Lenin was his relationship, but he would not do it if he had to lose his political career for it! He was hesitant just now, just pretending to make his eating look better. Now that Li Xiaofeng has broken the window paper, why are hesitating?

"Yes, this is self-rescue. We cannot let Trotsky become bigger, and we cannot let Trotsky do whatever he wants!" Stalin threw his pipe on the table and put on a stance of burning his boats.

"How to do it?" Luzutak asked.

"The Military Commission is crucial! Avoid Trotsky's Chairman of the Military Commission!" Stalin pointed to the center with a sharp stroke.

The enlarged meeting of the Military Commission? When Lenin learned the news, he was a little surprised because he believed that with his prestige, he should be able to suppress Stalin and Sverdlov for a longer time. But he did not expect that these two right-hand men grew so fast that they now...

To be honest, Lenin sighed a little. He naturally knew what Stalin and Sverdlov were preparing to hold the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission. It was obvious that they went to Trotsky's Chairman of the Military Commission. However, Lenin thought Stalin and Sverdlov were too young. Do they think that holding this enlarged meeting of the Military Commission could squeeze out Trotsky?

Lenin ordered his confidential secretary: "Tell the comrades of the Military Commission that I will attend this enlarged meeting in person on time!"

Lenin believed that even if Stalin and Sverdlov were together, it would not offset his personal huge political reputation. As long as he took office in the enlarged conference, Trotsky would support him, he would not be able to overturn his ship!

However, what Lenin did not expect was that just as he was about to attend the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission to stand up for Trotsky, another news emerged.

"Comrade Lenin, Comrade Sverdlov invites you to attend the emergency meeting of the Supreme Presidium of the Soviet Union!"

Lenin was stunned at this moment. Why did the Supreme Presidium of the Soviet Union suddenly hold an emergency meeting? And it was Sverdlov personally requested it, which was unusual. Is Xiao Si going to do something else there?

After thinking for a while, Lenin had a problem. He thought that this was Stalin and Sverdlov's plan to attack the world. If he went to attend the emergency meeting of the Supreme Soviet Presidium, he would naturally not be able to catch up with the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission, and naturally he could not cheer for Trotsky. However, this little trick was really not very clever. It was obvious which was more important to the Supreme Soviet Presidium or the Military Commission! How could Lenin do the stupid thing of picking up sesame seeds and throwing watermelons?

"Tell Comrade Sverdlov that I will not attend the emergency meeting of the Supreme Presidium of the Soviet Union. Just convey the spirit of the meeting to me after the meeting!"

Lenin was ready to defeat Sverdlov and Stalin at the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission. He believed that as long as he succeeded this time, these two right-hand men would never make any tricks anymore, so he could only act obediently according to the route and principles he set...
