On the night of August 31, when the Winter Palace was captured by the revolutionary army, Kornilov surrendered. At the same time, in a small room in the Tavriche Palace, Kerensky appointed himself as the supreme commander of the Russian armed forces and retained his position as Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

Later, he was satisfied and appointed Alexeyev as the chief of staff, forming five people led by Nikko, Deleshenko, Verkhovsky and Verdevsky.

The next morning, the pro-cabinet "Exchange News" published a headline news - the five-person "ruling cabinet" announced that the Russian Empire, which had existed for hundreds of years, had officially died, and was replaced by the new Russian Republic.

Needless to say, this is Alexeyev's method of diverting attention. His wishful thinking was to remove the Russian Empire and replace it with a republic that changed the soup but not the medicine, trying to fool people with such a trick.

"The Republic will usher in a new era in Russia!" Kerensky, who was full of energy, held a press conference as soon as he returned to the Hermitage, talking about new atmosphere, new era, and a broad vision that cannot be touched at all. "Under the leadership of the Republic, Russia will be reborn! I hope that all parties can participate in the construction of the New Russia, and we will create history together!"

"There will never be hungry anymore. Every Russian will have milk, bread and butter on the table! Every worker can find a job!" He promised, "As long as you give me full trust, this day will come soon!"

The Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party were interested in Kerensky's painting cakes. They were noisy like crows, creating all kinds of unpleasant noises, trying to mobilize the emotions of the people and let the impatient workers, soldiers and peasants follow their batons.

However, this trick was useless to Lenin. From the beginning, he had not planned to give Kerensky a good face. He had already decided to solve Kornilov first, and then he cleaned up Kerensky's plan and wanted to shake him up. How could it be!

"Kerensky hopes to draw a cake to satisfy his hunger, and to use hypocritical lies to deceive us into joining his government that is simply untenable," Lenin mercilessly mocked Kerensky, "Why should we stay in the mud with him like him? With the support of the people, we Bolsheviks can create a new situation... I think it's time to target the struggle's finger at this hypocrite!"

Trotsky, who hurried back to Petrograd, also supported Lenin's opinion: "...Our priority now is to win the majority of the Petrograd Soviets, and to oust Zihze and Zeretielli, who supported Kerensky, stepped down. They cannot continue to control the Soviets and do whatever they want!"

On September 1 (historically, August 31). The Petrograd Soviet convened a plenary meeting at the strong request of the representatives of the Bolsheviks. At the meeting, the resolution on the regime was easily passed by the Bolshevik Central Committee with 297 votes in favor, 150 votes against, and 51 abstentions.

The resolution strongly condemned the compromise tendency in the previous Soviets and their policy of compromise with the bourgeoisie, pointing out: "Not only should the Cadets and ordinary proletarians who are openly involved in the rebellion be eliminated from the regime, but all compromise and irresponsible policies should be fundamentally changed! Russia's only way out is to establish a regime composed of the revolutionary proletariat and peasant representatives..."

This was just the beginning. Four days later, the Soviet Union for Moscow workers and the Soviet Union for soldiers also held a plenary meeting. At the meeting, the same resolution was passed by 355 votes to 254 votes. This resolution was even more radical, not only condemning all compromises and surrenderism, but also calling on the Russian people to fight for the Soviet regime. They should immediately start arming workers and prepare to seize power with armed forces.

"asshole!"

When the news reached Petrograd, Celetielli threw a cup in public. The last time he was beaten by the Bolsheviks in Petrograd was caught off guard. He had already made him angry and wanted to win a game back in Moscow, but who would have thought that something even more slap happened again.

Although only these two cities in the country have passed similar resolutions, they must be seen. These two cities are the capitals of Russia and are the political, economic and cultural centers. In a sense, these two cities are the weather vanes of political changes. If they change their flags, they will soon affect the entire Russia.

"We must fight back!" Zeletiri said viciously, "If the initiative is not regained, the Bolsheviks will soon sweep the whole country! At that time, everything will be over!"

Qiheze asked with a bitter face: "How to fight back? Now the Petrograd Soviets are all their people, and any resolution we put forward will be rejected by them!"

Celeteli said furiously: "You can't do nothing!"

Qi Heze smiled bitterly and said, "What is the question?"

Suddenly, Akshelilod spoke: "It's not impossible..."

"What method?" Celetielli and Qi Heze asked in unison.

"It's very simple!" Aksherirod said in a deep voice, "It is true that the Bolsheviks have achieved certain advantages, but this advantage is not absolute... On the one hand, we must actively act among the Soviet representatives and strive for more support. On the other hand, we have an absolute advantage in the presidium of the Petrograd Soviet... Although the resolution was voted by the General Assembly, if the Bureau unanimously opposes it, it can still be rejected!"

Yes! Celetielli and Ziheze suddenly lit up their eyes. The Bolsheviks have always been exploring their corners from bottom to top. Lenin could hollow out the bottom, but they could not reach the top for a while. If they make good use of it, they might not be able to turn the tables.

Celetielli and Qi Heze were excited, excited, and almost became incontinent. They were like people who were about to drown in the water. They finally grabbed a straw and used it as a magic weapon to save their lives. In three days, they ran around and connected, hoping to come for a Jedi counterattack, but they absolutely could not have imagined that what awaited them would be the most ruthless blow.

On September 7, the Petrograd Soviet rostrum, controlled by the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party, rejected the resolution on the regime. What nonsense is that this resolution was passed by extremely accidental without calmness and has no legal effect.

Two days later, on September 9, with the renewed efforts of the Bolshevik Central Committee, the resolution on the regime was passed again, and the number of votes to support it increased slightly. I really don’t know how the two idiots, Celetielli and Qiheze, do their work. This ability to sell roasted sweet potatoes is worrying!

And what's even more serious is that not only the resolution was passed again on this day, but also the case of distrust against the old presidium of the Petrograd Soviet headed by Telletelli. Amidst booing, the Mensheviks headed by Telletelli, Tychze and Skobelev were expelled from the presidium. Instead, the Central Committee of the Bolsheviks, such as Sverdlov, was elected as the throne of the presidium chairman. This means that the supreme power of the Petrograd Soviet fell completely into the hands of the Bolsheviks.

The continuous changes were dazzling. Before the Mensheviks understood what was going on, they stepped down in a daze. Their dying struggle seemed like a joke to Li Xiaofeng. He admired the far-sighted vision of the mentor.

When the resolution on the "On the Governance" was first passed, many bigwigs in the party believed that since they had gained an advantage, they should take advantage of the iron and completely wipe out the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party in one fell swoop, and they should immediately pass the case of distrust of the old presidium.

At that time, this kind of opinion had a very good market within the party. After a two-month low, the big guys were ready to do something big, and they wanted to immediately let the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party get out of their way and immediately seize power. Armed struggles began immediately. Among them, Trotsky, Derzhinsky and Stalin also supported this opinion.

But for the first time, Lenin opposed, "Comrades, we must see that although within the Petrograd Soviet, those who support our opinions have already occupied the majority, but we must see that this majority is not decisive... If we are too impatient to promote the radical revolutionary line, or immediately start to liquidate the mistakes of Cleiteli and others, it is likely to cause doubts among some central and central leftists, and they may think that we are just going to liquidate the old accounts before and retaliate... In order to win more support, we must endure!"

"How long will it take to endure?"

Regarding this question, Lenin smiled and said, "It won't take long. The Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party will not be willing to surrender. They will inevitably fight back and struggle to death. So soon, they will be impatient to jump out, and that is when we completely liquidate them!"

At that time, there was a debate within the party about the tutor's argument. If the tutor's prestige was not high enough and had won consecutive victories recently, it would have been really troublesome. At that time, Li Xiaofeng had secretly reminded the tutor.

"Some comrades in the party don't understand your opinions, and some still complain. I think this phenomenon is worth paying attention to..."

Lenin looked at a fairy who wanted to speak but stopped and smiled and said, "I'm afraid these people who don't understand include you?"

Li Xiaofeng nodded honestly. He did think that the mentor was useless and would have directly solved the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party. He always wanted to fight back passively, which was too frustrating.

"Do you know why we failed in 1905?" Lenin asked suddenly.

Li Xiaofeng curled his lips and was speechless at the god of the mentor. Why did you turn to the failure of 1905 in the blink of an eye? Not enough? Since the mentor asked, he couldn't help but answer: "We are not prepared enough and have not fully mobilized the power of the proletariat... Underestimated the cruelty of the reactionary forces... Stolepin's cruel suppression and land reform gave us a heavy blow..."

Lenin smiled: "You have summarized it well, and you are all right. Do you know why I mentioned the failure in 1905?"

Li Xiaofeng shook his head, and Lenin continued: "That time, our country was also internal and external troubles, and it was indeed a rare opportunity. The reason why it failed was the comprehensive result of all factors... But it is undeniable that we underestimated the influence of Russia's deep-rooted feudal ideas for hundreds of years. The farmers left the revolution because of a little benefit... And today, the situation we face is very similar to 1905. That time we failed because we were too impatient, and this time, we must be more cautious! Especially when victory is just around the corner, we need to be calmer!"

Li Xiaofeng felt that the mentor was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the rope. The Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party were dead dogs. What else should I worry about? Just go up and explode their chrysanthemums. I was not happy enough to look forward to it.

"What do you know!" Lenin criticized him, "Don't underestimate the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party. Their strength is stronger than you think. To deal with them, you must have enough patience, and you must break up their alliance bit by bit. This is the best strategy... Too impatient, it will cause them to fight to the death, but it will be bad!"

Li Xiaofeng vaguely guessed the thoughts of the mentor. According to Mao Taizu, it was to unite all forces that could be united. Whether it was the Mensheviks or the Social Revolutionary Party, it was not a monolithic part. If they could be divided and disintegrated, the resistance to the revolution would be much smaller.

It has to be said that Lenin's estimate was correct. If he forced the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party too quickly, they would be anxious. Now, the seemingly warm method of boiling frogs has achieved unexpected results.

For example, the vote on September 9th can be clearly seen that there have been cracks within the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party, but the active work of Zeretielli received more votes in favor of the Bolsheviks.

It is not difficult to guess that the left-wing Social Revolutionary Party and the Menshevik New International faction were quite dissatisfied with the decision to use the presidium to deny the "Region". He also appreciated the Bolsheviks' actions that did not directly overthrow the presidium at the beginning. He believed that the Bolsheviks were the ones who truly took the overall situation into consideration.

In contrast, for the "unruly" and selfish and selfish Zeletielli and the presidium, their patience has reached its limit, and it is normal to have a turnaround.

"Turn against the enemy?" Lenin refused to comment, but it can be seen from the smile of the mentor. He had expected this, and even made more amazing words: "This is just the beginning, and soon the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party will be divided!"

On September 10, at the first plenary session of the new Petrograd Soviet, the Mensheviks and the Social Revolutionary Party were indeed as Lenin expected. There was a great division within, and the number of left-wing social revolutionary parties suddenly increased, accounting for two-thirds of the entire social revolutionary party. The new "international faction" in the Mensheviks also began to emerge.

They were tired of the deadly attempt to preserve the Provisional Government and began to agree with the Bolsheviks' proletarian revolutionary line and increasingly tended to be close to the Bolsheviks.

After this battle, the balance of power in the Soviets changed fundamentally, and about 40% of the representatives who originally supported the Mensheviks and the right of the Social Revolutionary Party turned to the Bolsheviks. This was a catastrophe for the people of Telletelli and Qiheze, who were originally dominated by the mainstream.

"I said, it's a stupid way to use the Soviet presidium to deny that resolution!" Celetielli cursed angrily, "It's good now that Lenin has completely pulled our people away. In one day, we have become a complete minority! It's all your fault, it's all your bad idea!"

Akserillo was so funny that he couldn't help but laugh. Well, it was you who was at a loss at the beginning. He thought that my method was good and that it was you who was not good now. You were the one who scolded the streets. You snatched the blame completely. I have to complain about it when I help you find a solution. What is this? As expected, the more you do, the more you make mistakes. Doing nothing is the most correct!

Thinking of this, Akserillo wanted to leave. He and a fool like Celetiri could not cooperate. This idiot was useless except for bad things and shirking responsibility.

No wonder Plekhanov on the hospital bed just sighed after learning about the change of the situation, but said nothing. What else can you say to these pig-like teammates?

Qi Heze finally persuaded him and held him back: "Now is not the time to hold him accountable! None of us at that time expected that some of our comrades would be so weak that they would be confused by the Bolsheviks..."

"What's the use of saying this now!" said Celetielli, who was stumbled and beaten. "We must find a way to save ourselves, otherwise Lenin will immediately start to implement his tricks, and Russia will be finished by then!"

Aksherirod nodded: "We should indeed save ourselves. Petrograd is just the beginning. The Bolsheviks are ready to convene the All-Russian Soviet Congress in September. If they are allowed to succeed, the inevitable Soviet Central Executive Committee will also change the world. That will be a disaster!"

"What do you think of?"

Akserillo walked around, thought for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "We must take advantage of our Central Executive Committee to temporarily hold back Lenin and buy Kerenskido some time!"

“How to do it?”

"It's very simple! Let's start first!" Akserillo said with a tiger face, "We will hold a meeting in advance in the name of the Soviet Central Executive Committee, insert as many of our people as possible, and then use the name of this meeting to promulgate a result that is beneficial to us..."
