"We were fooled!"

After the meeting, Trotsky was silent in his office for a long time before suddenly saying this to Bukharin. However, the latter was very disdainful of Lao Tuo's sigh and asked back with a slight mockery: "You are just reacting now?"

Of course, Trotsky could not have realized it so much. When Lenin threw out his killer move at the meeting, he fully understood that he was being fooled!

How to say it? It is obvious that Stalin's previous mistake was probably not a mistake at all. It was designed by Lenin, in order to make him relax his vigilance and make him think that the original plan was foolproof, and then Lenin seized the opportunity to launch a fatal blow. The subsequent meeting process fully explained this point. When he thought he was taking the initiative and was a little satisfied, he was hit and almost lost all his money.

At that time, Trotsky almost vomited blood and did not recover until the end of the meeting. This was the main reason why he had been in the office for so long and didn't speak out. Of course, it is not ruled out that Lao Tuo had nothing to say. After all, all this was planned by him, but he lost completely. No matter what, he couldn't explain it to Bukharin, and he probably had a little shame on his face.

"We must make plans early. We can handle the next negotiation work carefully. If we imagine that we were so fooled in the past, it would probably not work!"

Speaking of this, Bukharin was very angry. At the beginning, he didn't agree with this bad idea. He used a little girl to design an important backbone in the party. He felt insidious and evil when doing this. In other words, in order to ensure the interests of Russia, he reluctantly agreed.

What happened? I almost lost my underwear. If Lenin hadn't saved them a little face and sent Kalinin, a good old man, to supervise Yuefei and Radick's work, otherwise the result would have been even more embarrassing.

He had a lot of opinions about Trotsky and thought to himself: "Look at what bad ideas you have come up with, isn't this a scam?"

So when Trotsky mentioned this, he couldn't help but get angry: "What's the use of saying this now? You should have foreseeed this unfavorable situation in advance, and we shouldn't have implemented your unlucky plan at all!"

Trotsky did not answer, not because he was afraid of Bukharin, nor because he felt embarrassed. For politicians, there was never the word "shy" in the dictionary. The main reason why he really chose to endure was for the overall situation.

Now he was hit by a blow. Although Lenin saved his face, it was a huge setback no matter what. This means that he had a full-scale attack in the previous period, and the general trend of coercing Lenin was inevitably defeated. In this case, he must immediately turn off attack to defense, shrink his defense line and stabilize his position, and actively prevent Lenin's counterattack.

Therefore, he cannot be serious with Bukharin. This guy is very powerful at the moment. If he gets into trouble with him, it is equivalent to breaking his arms. Without self-harm, he may not be able to fight Lenin. If he becomes a disabled person, he will not be Lenin's opponent.

This is the fundamental reason why Trotsky endured Bukharin's criticism, but Bukharin didn't seem to know this. In some aspects, he was a little novice and his experience in political struggles was indeed not as rich as Trotsky. He regarded Trotsky's silence as an admission of his mistakes and immediately criticized him even more fiercely.

Do you think Trotsky feels comfortable? I'm afraid I feel so angry that I feel so angry that I'm just trying to endure it.

After Bukharin finished criticizing, Trotsky said: "It can be expected that Lenin will make every effort to promote the negotiation process in the future. According to the current situation, we will be evenly matched at most. If we want to fundamentally deny the route of compromise and surrender, we must strengthen our power and strive for an absolute advantage!"

Bukharin sneered and said, "Simply put, how to do it? You haven't seen the situation today. When those fencemen see that the situation is not good, they immediately change their attitude. Relying on them is like a daydream!"

Trotsky curled his lips and said disdainfully: "I have never made too high hopes for them. I mean, it's time for me to find a way to invite Comrade Ulitsky back!"

Bukharin slapped his forehead. If Trotsky didn't mention it, he would have forgotten Ulitsky. In the past half month, Ulitsky, who was forced to cultivate in Moscow, would have been forgotten. However, no matter how he said that these guys are members of the Politburo, if he could come back, Lenin would have no advantage in the Politburo.

"You go and do the job of being an iron-faced man," Bukharin said in a commanding tone. "As long as he nods, I will be in the Central Committee and let him come back, there should be no problem."

Trotsky felt annoyed again. You are so rude that you actually gave orders to me? But for the sake of the overall situation, Trotsky was still patient. "The Iron-faced man has no big problem, and he still supports our point of view, but even if he agrees, it is not very meaningful. At most, it is still three to three in the Politburo. If Lenin is preparing to be unreasonable, Ulitsky will still not come back. The most important thing is the Central Committee. You must do more work. As long as the Central Committee agrees, Ulitsky can only come back!"

When he heard this, Bukharin couldn't help but start muttering: "Look, I've told you a long time ago. Be kind of polite to Stalin and be sure to let him stay with us. You just don't listen and insist on forcing others to Lenin's side. What's wrong? If he stood with us, it wouldn't matter without Ulitsky. It would be simple to make Ulitsky come back. Why is it so troublesome now!"

Trotsky's anger had reached its peak, and he couldn't help it: "We have discussed the issue of Stalin long ago, and I have said it long ago, he is unreliable. Can't his performance explain the problem today? Only comrades who truly support our route are truly reliable, and those fencemen are not trustworthy at all!"

Seeing that Bukharin was about to fight back, Trotsky quickly said, "Okay, what's the use of saying this now? We should look forward, and I immediately asked Ulitsky to write a letter to the Central Committee to apply for the restoration of work. Let's take action immediately!" After that, before Bukharin could speak, he left on his own.

The quarrel between Bukharin and Trotsky was not pleasant, and on the other hand, Lenin was also holding a meeting of criticism and struggle, and the protagonist of the criticism was of course a certain immortal.

"Comrade Andre. Do you know that it is because of your momentary impulse that we almost fell into a completely passive today!"

Facing the scolding of the mentor, Li Xiaofeng naturally did not dare to say much. Sverdlov had told him before that, don’t think that things have been resolved successfully, you should not be lucky. The mentor’s eyes cannot get into the sand. Accept criticism with a serious and correct attitude!

To be honest, Li Xiaofeng was also a little scared at this time. He never expected Trotsky to be so insidious and set a chain of traps for him. If he hadn't had left some life-saving trump card before, this time it would have been really difficult.

"Do you know that you almost ruined the overall situation of the revolution, and you almost became the sinner of the revolution!" Lenin was indeed very angry because someone almost became completely passive just because of a woman, for some trivial matters. This behavior without a view of the overall situation is the most untolerable thing for the mentor.

However, Li Xiaofeng was also wronged. He muttered in a low voice: "How did I know that Bukharin and Trotsky are so shameless, they actually use such means to a lesbian. It's simply..."

"What's it?" Lenin snorted coldly, "I have warned you many times that struggles have always been cruel. Never have any luck, and look at the overall situation in everything. If you make a mistake for a moment, you will be regretful forever!"

Of course, Lenin was not just criticizing. Seeing that someone's attitude was quite correct, and this time the matter was a mistake or a mistake, which was considered to be a mistake. He said, "Of course, some comrades in our party are really too unconventional. It is indeed worthy of vigilance to use some despicable tricks!"

At this time, Li Xiaofeng felt like there were ten thousand grass horses running by, and he was not satisfied with the words of the mentor. You said that you were not honest and despicable. Why is such behavior just worthy of being vigilant? No matter how you say it, you can be too tit for tooth, just for eye for eye! Otherwise, wouldn’t it be too cheap for Trotsky!

In fact, not only Li Xiaofeng had an objection, but even Sverdlov was extremely dissatisfied. Trotsky's move this time was a secret move outside the board. In the previous struggles within the party, the struggle was due to struggle, but everyone still talked about rules and principles. Trotsky said nothing this time. To put it bluntly, he was using any means. How could he ignore such behavior?

Think about it, this time Trotsky can use the off-panel trick to get rid of Li Xiaofeng, and the next time he will dare to come to me, Sverdlov. If you can't ignore this sign, you should kill this evil spirit.

Therefore, Sverdlov naturally advised: "Comrade Lenin, it is probably far from enough to make comrades be alert. Faced with this unhealthy trend, if we do nothing, if we do not attack hard, some people will probably be even more rampant!"

Lenin just glanced at Sverdlov. He understood what Xiaos was worried about. Objectively speaking, such concerns made a lot of sense. If everyone followed Trotsky's example and engaged in such conspiracies, what would the atmosphere within the party look like?

If Lenin's original intention was to severely crack down on such behavior, of course, even if he was Lenin, the boss of the Bolsheviks, and the mentor, he could not do it by his own nature.

If it were normal, Lenin would definitely beat Trotsky's face hard and calculate the accounts carefully. But now is not the ordinary time. The Russian ship is full of dangers. As the Bolsheviks driving this ship, they must unite. If they start to toss and struggles regardless of it, it is not impossible for the Bolsheviks to split again.

So, this time Li Xiaofeng was obviously being imprisoned by Trotsky, and Lenin could only bear it temporarily, at least he had to maintain unity through the current crisis first. So he definitely couldn't settle the score with Trotsky, so he could only choose to swallow his anger.

And this is politics. To put it bluntly, in order to achieve one's own goals, persist when it is time to persevere, and compromise when it is time to pretend to be a grandson when it is really a pity, and you can only pretend to be a grandson.

Therefore, Lenin could only express lightly about Sverdlov's dissatisfaction: "It is not the time yet, and now we must unite and go to difficulties. It is not suitable to pursue relevant responsibilities at this time!"

Sverdlov sighed in his heart. He could understand the tutor's difficulties, but he really disagreed with doing so. Because the current situation is very obvious. Trotsky saw your last resort, so he became more and more rampant and unscrupulous. Unity comes from unity, but he can't indulge this guy, right?

As for a certain immortal, he was even more annoyed than Sverdlov. How could he suffer such a loss after traveling through time? According to Lenin's meaning, he was not going to pursue the matter. How could he swallow this anger?

Lenin also knew that the anger in someone's heart would not dissipate, so he immediately instructed someone: "Don't go and ask for trouble for Trotsky and Comrade Bukharin! This is an order! If I hear any news that is not conducive to the unity of the party during this period, I will definitely deal with you first!"

A certain immortal suddenly felt even more painful. He said reluctantly: "If other comrades can't stand their actions and have to settle accounts with them, can't I blame you too?"

"Hmph!" Lenin snorted heavily, "No one in the party has so much excess sense of justice except you! There is no one who likes to meddle in other people's business!"

Li Xiaofeng stopped talking awkwardly because the mentor was not wrong. Those who dared to trouble the Politburo member were not even alternate members of the Central Committee. There were so many people in the party, and there was really no second one except him. If the mentor did not have such a solemn warning, he would really take the mentor's previous warning as if he had to touch Trotsky's tiger's butt.

However, now the tutor has said everything to death. Even an immortal like a certain immortal who has no moral integrity has to stop. He can only record the account in his heart, and then slowly find a way to settle the score with Trotsky and Bukharin.

"Don't say much about the related issues of Trotsky and Comrade Bukharin," Lenin knocked on the table and shouted to a certain immortal: "Now, Comrade Andre, should you explain the secret code?"

Li Xiaofeng was about to fool things around, but Lenin glared at him fiercely and said arrogantly without anger: "Don't try to fool me, honestly explain what's going on? Anyway, I don't believe that you got the secret code by chance!"

"Of course it's not a coincidence!" Li Xiaofeng could only tell the truth, "The secret code was stolen from the German Embassy in Sweden last time..."

"Slow down!" Lenin immediately interrupted someone, "You mean, was the secret code obtained with the last information?"

Li Xiaofeng nodded silently, but the tutor was surprisingly angry and slapped the table and said angrily: "Such important information. Why didn't you report it to the central government last time!"

Li Xiaofeng curled his lips. The reason why this guy didn't hand over the secret code directly was to put it bluntly. He was forced to go to Sweden last time. He taught him a lesson. It is not a good thing to be too capable. In order to prevent such good things from falling on him in the future, he had to keep one move, otherwise the next time the mentor would send him to the UK, France or the United States for information. He really couldn't stand this trouble, so he just kept one move. Fortunately, he kept one move, otherwise he wouldn't be able to pass this time.

Now that the tutor has been pursuing it, he has already thought of an excuse. The man spread his hands helplessly and replied with great grievance: "This secret code came too unexpectedly and too easy. Even I can't believe it is real... How dare I report it to the central government before it is confirmed its authenticity? Do you think I am the kind of person who likes to push credit out? If it weren't for the fact that I really couldn't do it, I wouldn't dare to take it out this time..."

Lenin was speechless again, but he could probably understand someone's concerns. It was indeed a great contribution to getting this kind of fatal information done. If he didn't do it well, he would cheat himself and be detained as a counter-revolutionary crime. Someone was unable to make up his mind and did not report it immediately, but slowly verifying the authenticity of the information is also a sign of responsibility.

However, understanding it in your heart does not mean that the tutor does not hold someone responsible: "Then your behavior will be even worse. Things that cannot be guaranteed for authenticity will be thrown out in order to save your life. What kind of behavior is this? It is not an exaggeration to say that you are a counter-revolutionary!"

If it were someone else, they would probably be scared by Lenin. However, after dealing with the mentor for so long, Li Xiaofeng began to understand the mentor's temper. If the mentor wanted to hold him accountable, there was no need to talk nonsense. He just called the guard in and got him out, or handed him over to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection for handling.

The reason why the tutor spent so much talk was nothing more than scaring him or fearing that he would cause trouble, so this guy didn't care at all. But this time Lenin wasn't just scaring him, there was a saying.

"You guy is too brave," Lenin glared at this guy and taught a lesson: "If you keep staying in Petrograd, you might cause trouble again. Comrade Yakov and I don't have time, energy, and are not interested in helping you wipe your butt. So, you should hurry back to Petrograd and continue to do a good job in the fight against the counter-counterfeiting! By the way, you should implement the import of food as well!"

"Ah!" Li Xiaofeng was full of dissatisfaction and immediately began to complain: "Comrade Lenin, I just came back, and Angelina was still unconscious. It was because of me that something happened to her..."
