028 Moving on

Vladimirsky looked at the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones in the distance with concern. Ten minutes had passed. According to the original plan, the vanguard troops led by Li Xiaofeng should have taken down the building's door. But why did not send a signal as agreed? Could it be that the plan failed?

To be honest, Vladimirsky did not have much confidence in Li Xiaofeng's whimsical plan. He believed that this was a risk. As long as the enemy saw a little flaw, the raid troops would be like meat buns to beat the dog.

Vladimirsky already regretted that he agreed to someone's plan, regretted not dissuading someone in time, and regretted coming to attack the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones. He thought to himself that perhaps Usievech was right, the revolutionary forces in the city were still very weak, and he could only take a defensive move, and any offensive action would be a trap.

"Did Comrade Andre send a signal yet?" Vladimirsky asked the correspondent anxiously.

"No!"

"Is there any movement ahead?"

"No!"

"Really not?"

The correspondent nodded honestly: "No!"

Vladimirsky sighed speechlessly, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch for the last time. He had made up his mind that if Li Xiaofeng had not sent a signal in five minutes, he would lead the troops to start a strong attack.

However, Vladimirsky's concerns were completely unnecessary. Less than a minute later, good news came from the radio station: "Call No. 2, this is No. 1... We have occupied the gate, please come and support immediately, and repeat again, we have occupied the gate, please come and support immediately!"

This news really made Vladimirsky feel relieved. He couldn't wait to lead his young man to the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telecommunications.

He ordered very seriously: "Be prepared for battle! We must enter the battle as fast as possible!"

In Vladimirsky's view, no matter whether Li Xiaofeng's plan is successful or not, relying solely on the power of Troco, it is impossible to eliminate all the enemies in the building. He even thinks that Li Xiaofeng will seize the door unexpectedly. The next battle will be a lasting battle to clear the enemy. He and his young men will compete with the enemy for no house, every corridor, every step forward, and every price of bleeding...

Well. When Vladimirsky arrived at the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telecommunications, the above scenes that worried him did not appear at all. The entire building was basically controlled by Li Xiaofeng, and all he needed to do was take over the defense of the building.

"Comrade Vladimirsky, time is tight. So let's talk short!" Li Xiaofeng said without hesitation: "You take over the defense of the building immediately. In addition, I will allocate a young man from the company, and I will..."

"Slow! Slow!" Vladimirsky quickly interrupted his words and asked inexplicably: "Why am I taking over the defense of the building? Comrade Andre, I am just sent by the Revolutionary Military Commission to assist you. The task assigned to you by the Revolutionary Military Commission is..."

"I know the mission is to regain the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones," Li Xiaofeng quickly regained his voice. "Now we have completed this task well! So we must take the next action..."

"Next step?"

Vladimirsky was a little confused. He didn't remember any next plan. In fact, the Revolutionary Military Commission did not expect Li Xiaofeng to regain the postal and telecommunications and telephone calls. In essence, this counterattack was more like a trap.

That's right, it's just a trap. The Revolutionary Military Commission does not think that Li Xiaofeng can succeed. The reason why he agreed to someone's request is mainly based on two considerations:

First of all, the General Administration of Posts and Telecommunications is of great significance. If you lose it here, you will basically lose the freedom of communication in the city. This impact is quite bad. If the Revolutionary Military Commission does nothing, it will greatly dampen morale and be detrimental to their leadership of future "uprising operations". Therefore, it is necessary to fight back, at least all revolutionary masses and revolutionary soldiers must know that the Revolutionary Military Commission has made a counterattack!

Secondly. Although the counterattack is necessary, the Revolutionary Military Commission does not think that the counterattack will have any effect. The significance of the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones is too important, and the enemy will definitely be closely guarded. In this case, there must be a fool. Voluntarily assume the task of losing and take the blame.

It is obvious that Li Xiaofeng is the "fool" selected by the Revolutionary Military Commission. The reason why he disagreed at the beginning was actually a trick of indulgence. It was probably that Li Xiaofeng made a military order and then used this to facilitate them to shirk responsibility in the future.

After the action fails, they can put all the responsibility on Li Xiaofeng - it is you who want to go, and we also warn you that there are risks. If you fail, it is your fault!

And what is the most wonderful thing about letting Li Xiaofeng be this fool? The Revolutionary Military Commission can happily snatch a certain immortal's face. Don't you think you are a central commissioner, very strong, excited, and excited? Then we will make you feel bloody, so that you can no longer be so arrogant and proud!

Therefore, the intention of the Revolutionary Military Commission is quite sinister, which is to use this opportunity to kill Li Xiaofeng's majesty, so that he can no longer put pressure on the Revolutionary Military Commission on the issue of armed uprising.

Yes, although the armed uprising was underway, both the outright opposition like Nogen and the ordinary centrists were dissatisfied with Li Xiaofeng's strength. They had no choice but to pick up their weapons, and from the bottom of their hearts they were reluctant to fight. In order to get things back on the right track, on the one hand, they were passively lazy and were preparing to delay until the day when the situation changed, and on the other hand, they were also actively preparing for the insult to Li Xiaofeng.

Vladimirsky knew this very well, not that he had already been in mingling with the opposition and fence factions, but because he also belonged to the radicals in Moscow and the group of troublemakers to attack.

Before leaving, Pjanitsky warned him that this action was a pit, and you must not jump in silly, and you must pull Li Xiaofeng a little, so as not to let him fall too badly. The best way is to pull the troops back without any result and act like a decent move.

As for Li Xiaofeng's military order, he deserved it. Who made him so impulsive? It doesn't matter if the young people suffer some losses. Anyway, for the sake of the Party Central Committee and Comrade Lenin, those bastards dare not go too far. At most, they are a little embarrassing.

Now, these heavy things that have been pressing on Vladimirsky's heart have completely disappeared with the "unexpected" victory that Li Xiaofeng achieved. They completed the "impossible" task! They regained the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telecommunications. Not only did they do anything wrong but also made great contributions. Under such circumstances, Li Xiaofeng suddenly proposed a plan for the next step, which shocked Vladimirsky, who was ready to stop as soon as he was ready.

He did not allow Li Xiaofeng to destroy the current good situation, and he must not let the impulse of young people turn good things into bad things. So he immediately raised an objection: "Comrade Andre, our mission is to regain the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones. Now we have successfully completed this task... The only thing we have to do now is to inform the Revolutionary Military Commission of this good news and wait for their next order! We must not do our own thing, nor can we make our own decisions! Otherwise, it will be unorganized and undisciplined!"

Vladimirsky's cringe and conservative attitude made Li Xiaofeng very dissatisfied. He retorted: "Comrade Lenin has always warned us that we must not be timid when carrying out armed struggles. We must launch subjective initiative, actively and boldly carry out actions! Now, a good opportunity to change the balance of power between the enemy and us is in front of us. The Kremlin is ahead. As long as we move forward, we can transport the guns and ammunition from the Kremlin armory. Have you ever thought about it? How many comrades can we arm us?"

Vladimirsky said timidly: "But we had reached an agreement with Liang Bozef in the morning. He withdrew the non-commissioned officers who surrounded the Kremlin, and we no longer transported the arms if we tore up the agreement..."

Li Xiaofeng was angry and scolded: "There is no agreement. When we decided to launch an armed uprising, we can only fight to the death between our enemies! There is no intermediate route anymore! At this time, we still hold on to the agreement reached by the surrender faction and the enemy. Your attitude is very incorrect!"

Vladimirsky dared to speak, and Li Xiaofeng interrupted him ruthlessly: "Besides, has this agreement really been executed? I ask you, Liang Bozef really removed the siege? Now he not only did not implement the agreement, but also suddenly attacked the post and telecommunications building. What does this mean? It means that he did not take the agreement seriously at all!"

Speaking of this, Li Xiaofeng suddenly raised his voice and roared at Vladimirsky: "From the moment Liang Bozef attacked the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telecommunications, all the agreements between us have been invalidated! Faced with the enemy's life-and-death provocation, we can only fight back ten times a hundred times! Otherwise, the armed uprising would become a joke!"

Vladimirsky looked at Li Xiaofeng blankly. From the bottom of his heart, he felt that someone was right. The enemy had torn up the armistice agreement and launched a shameful sneak attack. If we can't fight back, what's that?

The fundamental reason why the Moscow uprising became this state and made the enemy grow step by step was that the appeasement of the Revolutionary Military Commission was causing trouble. Otherwise, on the 25th, when the enemy was the weakest, we could strangle it. However, as now, the enemy is getting stronger and stronger, but instead squeezed the revolutionary power into the corner.

As a staunch revolutionary, Vladimirsky was heartbroken by his current state, but he did not know how to change this unfavorable situation, and he was even more worried that excessively radical actions would cause division within the Revolutionary Military Commission.

So, he replied carefully: "Comrade Andre, although I agree with your opinion, the armed uprising in Moscow must obey the leadership of the Revolutionary Military Commission. Regarding your plan, I think it is better to ask the Revolutionary Military Commission first!"

Li Xiaofeng curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Comrade Vladimirsky, you are really talking nonsense again. Do you think the timid Revolutionary Military Commission can agree to my plan? I can guarantee that if you ask the surrenderists, you will get only one reply - disagree! Even, they will immediately deprive us of this pitiful military power and find another surrenderist to take over the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones!"

"But..." As soon as Vladimirsky opened his mouth, Li Xiaofeng rushed to say: "Then in a few hours, Liang Bozef will once again attack here and drive our team away again! Tell me, what's the point?"

Vladimirsky still had concerns: "But it is not appropriate to take action without notifying the Revolutionary Military Commission to take action privately?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled, laughing terrifiedly. "Comrade Vladimirsky, you have to learn to adapt! That's right, the Revolutionary Military Commission did not let us go to the Kremlin, but this does not mean we can't do this!"

Vladimirsky was completely confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I mean very simple!" Li Xiaofeng said with a smile. "The mission assigned to us by the Revolutionary Military Commission is to regain the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones occupied by the enemy and eliminate all the enemies entrenched in it! Therefore, we have the responsibility to completely eliminate the enemy!"

Vladimirsky said foolishly: "But all the enemies here have been wiped out!"

"Where did it be eliminated!" Li Xiaofeng said seriously, "There are obviously many fish that escaped the net fleeing towards the Kremlin. In order to completely eliminate them, we must continue to pursue!"

Vladimirsky understood, and understood it all. To put it bluntly, Li Xiaofeng was just playing the edge and using the orders issued by the Revolutionary Military Commission to take advantage of loopholes. We are pursuing the enemy. We are not intentionally approaching the Kremlin, and no one expected that the enemy would escape in that direction, right?

Vladimirsky changed his view of Li Xiaofeng. Li Xiaofeng's first impression was not particularly good. When the Party Committee dealt with Nogen, he was too strong and too reasonable, giving people an aggressive feeling. But now, he realized that Li Xiaofeng is not only able to play hard, but also good at playing with evil. As long as he becomes a fait accompli, the Revolutionary Military Commission can't do anything about them!

As soon as Vladimirsky thought of defeating the fenceists, he was a little excited. He used to want to do things and didn't know what to do. Now, with Li Xiaofeng, he pointed out a clear path for him. Why not do it?

"Is a company enough?" Vladimirsky asked.

Li Xiaofeng replied, "It's a little less, but we have limited staff now, so we can only make ends meet! After all, the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telecommunications still need people to defend!"

"We can call the Revolutionary Military Commission and say that the mission has been completed. Let them send someone to support us!" Without thinking, Vladimirsky came up with a bad idea.

Li Xiaofeng gave him an angry look. "Do you think the Revolutionary Military Commission has learned that we have completed the task and will let us stay here?"

Vladimirsky immediately wanted to slap himself in the mouth, but he said this without any brains. Those guys would definitely recall him and Li Xiaofeng when they learned that the conspiracy had failed. At that time, they were just disobeying their orders, which was equivalent to giving them the handle and letting them get rid of it happily.

"But if the Revolutionary Military Commission is not notified, there will be no reinforcements, and we cannot defend here without reinforcements."

"You're thinking too simple!" Li Xiaofeng sighed and explained: "Even if you notify them, there will be reinforcements! Don't you understand the attitude of those guys. They just want to wait, delay, or negotiate with the enemy! Do you think they will pay attention to the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones?"

"What should I do?" Vladimirsky was stunned. In his opinion, according to Li Xiaofeng's statement, the future was dim.

"So we have to be more proactive!" Li Xiaofeng instructed, "Don't put hope on the Revolutionary Military Commission. The only reliable thing about those guys is that they are not reliable at all! We must mobilize the masses now and arm them with the weapons of the Kremlin Armory! After arming them, we don't need to look at the face of the Revolutionary Military Commission!"

Vladimirsky suddenly realized that it was so simple to resolve this tangled situation. He knew the revolutionary enthusiasm of the grassroots masses too well, and it was in full swing. On the 25th, when the workers in Moscow heard that the battle of the uprising had begun, they raised the 55th infantry regiment who actively responded to the uprising and lifted them into Moscow. On the 26th, when the Revolutionary Military Commission negotiated with Liang Bozef, the workers in the Hanwai District seized the power station and controlled the lighting of the city. The Red Guards in the Simon District also occupied an arsenal, providing valuable arms for the workers.

Compared with the workers and soldiers who actively carry out operations at the grassroots level, the Moscow Engineer Representative Soviet Union and the Revolutionary Military Commission were simply a slow turtle. After the outbreak of the revolution, their greatest contribution was to make the enemy stronger little by little and create obstacles to future armed struggles.

When Li Xiaofeng told his true plan, Vladimirsky felt for the first time that the revolution had hope of victory. He was willing to contribute to this hope.

"Great, I'll send someone to contact Comrade Pjanitsky, who was sent by the Revolutionary Military Commission to appease the people in the city. If he can organize the masses and you can provide weapons and ammunition, then we can really be able to defend the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones and the Kremlin!"
