385 Old Tuo's Means (Part 1)

Li Xiaofeng smiled and did not answer the question from the mentor directly, but said: "I think it is an opportunity now. The Germans used to take advantage of others' danger and overthrew the Soviet regime of the Baltic Three Kingdoms by force. Now, as their control declines, it is our opportunity to re-engineer the revolution in the Baltic Three Kingdoms!"

The tutor didn't say a word, but just looked at a certain immortal silently, with his eyes really a little creepy. Soon, the immortal could not hold on and said dejectedly: "If you don't agree, then forget it!"

The tutor nodded quietly, waved his hand and said, "Then you can return to Vyborg early and end the war there as soon as possible!"

When he walked out of the tutor's office, Li Xiaofeng was both inexplicably and a little unwilling to accept it. Could it be that the tutor's tutor has no desire for food? It is obvious that the food shortage has begun to spread, and it makes no sense? Especially the look he looked at him was weird, it was really weird.

That night, Li Xiaofeng was always worried about the tutor's eyes and couldn't figure out what the tutor's eyes meant.

Early in the morning, when a fairy was about to leave Moscow in a bad mood, the people from the Military Commission suddenly found him.

"Comrade Andre, Comrade Trotsky wants to see you, please come with us immediately."

Li Xiaofeng was a little surprised. His relationship with Trotsky was not good. What does it mean to ask him suddenly?

In fact, the meaning is very simple. Among all the leaders of the central government, Trotsky was the most enthusiastic about exporting revolution, and he had an almost pathological persistence in this. Even if he was about to go to Nizhny Novgorod, he heard that a certain immortal was preparing to launch a new revolution in the Three Kingdoms of the Baltics. He took the time to try his best to hear what someone wanted to do.

When Lao Tuo learned that the revolutionary issues of the Three Baltic Kingdoms, the national self-determination movement, the food issues, and the Ukraine issues, he couldn't sit still, and rang the bell and called the secretary and ordered: "Push off my special train for an hour!"

As he said that, he ordered Li Xiaofeng anxiously: "Comrade Andrei. Tell me about this issue in detail."

It was a surprise to Li Xiaofeng if it wasn't bright in the east. Although Trotsky's power was much smaller than that of the mentor, if Lao Tzu supported it, the driving force was many times stronger than that of him, the accurate alternate Central Committee. Li Xiaofeng immediately cheered up and explained his ideas in detail.

Just as he was full of hope, Trotsky suddenly asked, "What is Comrade Lenin's attitude?"

When Trotsky learned that Lenin did not support it, even Li Xiaofeng could see it. The second mentor's enthusiasm was instantly extinguished. Before he, the immortal, continued to fight for it, Lao Tuo directly brought tea to the guests: "Your idea is interesting, but the details still need to be improved. Let me consider it, and let the central government study more... I am anxious to go to Nizhny Novgorod. Let's talk about it when I come back."

Li Xiaofeng just wanted to curse, isn’t this teasing him? He even thought Trotsky was too out of his way, just because his mentor didn’t support him, which scared you so much that he was so scared that he was sneered. No wonder Stalin was later sneered.

When Li Xiaofeng boarded the train to Petrograd, he felt full of unwillingness and disappointment, and he felt that this trip to Moscow was a failure. Of course, the most important thing was that he couldn't figure it out, so why would the tutor refuse?

"Hey! Comrade Andre, what a coincidence!"

While Li Xiaofeng was thinking about it, a voice sounded in his ear. When he raised his head, he saw Klestingsky's face. Li Xiaofeng was stunned at first, and then quickly said hello: "Comrade Nikola Nikolaevich, it's been a long time since I saw you!"

Indeed, since the Agoda incident, he has not dealt with Klestingsky much. Of course, more importantly, Comrade Nikola suddenly soared into the sky and was soon elected as a member of the Central Committee. His identity is different from the present.

"Are you going to Petrograd to do business?" Li Xiaofeng greeted him for a while, and suddenly asked.

Klestingsky said proudly: "No. The central government sent me to Petrograd to organize work. I'm going to take office!"

Li Xiaofeng then remembered that because of several major events in Petrograd, the Party Committee and the Soviets were so bad that it was really unreliable to let a cartilage and a good man control this huge revolutionary center. So at Trotsky's strong request, the Central Committee transferred Kalinin and sent Klestinsky, who had a stronger ability.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaofeng felt a little embarrassed because, as the secretary of the Petrograd Party Committee, Klestingsky was theoretically the most powerful person in Petrograd State, that is, he was the superior of a certain immortal.

But a certain immortal, the subordinate, even forgot his superiors, and asked a very stupid question, and said bluntly that this was suspected of being slapped in the face and being arrogant. However, Klestinsky didn't care about it, and seemed to care about it at all. Instead, he said enthusiastically: "It's great to meet you on the train. I was just about to know more about the situation in Petrograd!"

Li Xiaofeng was a little ashamed. It was not only because of his previous mistakes, but also because he didn't care much about the issue of Petrograd. His state Chairman Chika had never cared about his work since the day he took office, and he was busy with some unrelated things.

However, Li Xiaofeng could not say nothing, and could only answer carefully: "After Yudenic was defeated, Petrograd has basically returned to stability. The situation in all aspects is still relatively good."

Klestinsky naturally would not be interested in this general thing. What he wanted to know more was the specific situation of Petrograd, especially what were the problems.

Li Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "The biggest problem in Petrograd Prefecture is the leader's problem. Let's put it this way, Comrade Zinoviev has the biggest problem. He is the kind of person who likes to give orders and intervene randomly in the usual times, but can't count on anything at critical moments."

Klestingsky nodded. He had heard that Zinoviev was not easy to deal with. Not only was he arrogant, but he liked to interfere randomly. He had previously put Kalinin's party secretary for four or six. He did not want to be a good man like Kalinin, and he could just let the big pie face take care of him.

"What else?" Klestinski continued to ask.

Li Xiaofeng smiled faintly and said, "There is nothing else, and I mainly work in Finland. I basically don't care about the affairs of Petrograd."

Klestingsky also smiled, but he didn't really believe that a certain immortal was basically in charge. Over the past year, no one knew how powerful Comrade Andre was? Someone was the first to deal with Petrograd's riots. Not to mention how it was handled. Just because of this sensitivity, who believes that someone doesn't care about it!

Klestingsky knew that the reason why someone was asked to stop was probably because they did not have that friendship, and the most taboo thing in the officialdom was that a certain immortal could say something wrong with Zinoviev in front of him, so he would be very proud of his face.

Taking advantage of Li Xiaofeng's time to go to the bathroom, Klestinsky's secretary whispered: "Comrade Andre is too arrogant, right? Who doesn't know that you took over Comrade Kalinin's job. He pretended to be stupid. He said he didn't understand Petrograd's affairs. He is the chairman of the State Chika. Isn't this a joke?"

Klestinsky glanced at the secretary, meaning to shut up. If he had been a member of the Central Committee for more than half a year, if he still didn't know what someone was in the party, he would be a fool. To be honest, with Lenin and Sverdlov, the weight of someone's speech was equal to that of a member of the Central Committee. What's more, he had heard the news that after the meeting was held in March, a certain immortal would at least take the position of an alternate member of the Central Committee.

It is incredible that someone can enter the Central Committee at the age of his life. It is just this trick. Not to mention him, even the old Central Committee member dares to underestimate this kid. What's more, someone in Petrograd is said to be not a gangster at all, and he has beaten Kalinin. What does this mean? It means that he is very awesome!

A great man naturally has the confidence of a great man, so it is normal not to take his immediate boss seriously. Maybe someone said that just now, just to send a tough signal.

Klestinsky warned his secretary a few words and fell into deep thought. Being able to be the party secretary of the huge revolutionary center is certainly a gilded person. If you do well, you might get some benefits at the March conference, and at least you can ensure that the position of the Central Committee will not be lost. Of course, if you do not do well, it will definitely be a big setback, so you must be careful!

The only thing that made Klestinsky glad was that he and Li Xiaofeng were quite friendly. He helped him a little, but he didn't expect to gain a lot. Judging from someone's tone just now, although he made a tough statement, he did not send out any signs of kindness, especially because he focused on complaining about Zinoviev, which seemed to be a good sign?

Even a genuine Central Committee like Klestingsky is quite a headache to face Zinoviev. Although this guy took a detour after the October Revolution and was suppressed very badly, he still has some background after operating in the central government for so long. Especially after becoming the chairman of the Communist International, this guy seemed to have a little regained his energy.

Anyway, Klestinsky knew very well that he, the Central Committee, was not very good at seeing Zinoviev. Although Kalinin was not the Central Committee, he was also an old man of the Petrograd Party Committee. He has been operating in the Petrograd Prefecture Party Committee for a long time and has a little influence. Even he had no choice but to be a good person. Do you think Zinoviev is difficult?

If he could join forces with a certain immortal, Klestinsky felt that his back would be harder, with Trotsky covering the center and someone in the place to help fill in the gaps, why worry about not being able to deal with the big pie face?

Klestingsky was thinking deeply, but then again, is Li Xiaofeng really what he meant? It should be said that it was not at all. At least Li Xiaofeng had never thought about sending out any tough political signals. It was indeed an accident. He was careless. Because he had no need to show his muscles to Klestingsky. He felt it was unnecessary. If Klestingsky was about to give orders with the sign of the Party Secretary and was about to be domineering to him, then he would not mind teaching the other party a lesson.

Klestingsky is now very honest, has a good attitude and is very enthusiastic. As the saying goes, don’t hit people with smiles, a certain immortal is not that strong. Why do you say that Klestingsky is sent by the central government? You have to give some face, right?

As for the focus of the mention of the big pie face later, it was indeed a certain immortal who said he was not paying much attention to Petrograd's affairs, and it was also intentional. This was his statement in a vague manner. He raised the big pie face to wake Klestinsky up, which means that you, the party secretary, have paid attention, and the president of the state Soviets who really fight against you is. Before you overturn Zinoviev, you should be more or less relaxed and don't mess with me. The meaning of the latter sentence is even clearer. It was a certain immortal who said bluntly that he was not interested in interfering in the government affairs of Petrograd, so don't point the gun at him when you want to fight.

To put it bluntly, Li Xiaofeng still wants to maintain his previous neutral style. He did not intend to steal the right to speak in Petrograd. You can fight anyway, don't mess with him anyway. As for joining forces to fight against Zinoviev, he is not interested. The central government's meaning, especially the mentor's meaning is very obvious, otherwise the person who was adjusted and left would definitely not be Kalinin.

From this action, we can see that even if Zinoviev is really unable to support the wall, the central government did not intend to change the guy to another place. Especially if he didn't want this guy to return to Moscow, because the struggle in Moscow is already fierce enough, and with the big pie face, the messing stick, at that time, even Lenin and Trotsky could not control the situation.

Therefore, no matter who is in charge of the Party Committee of Petrograd, Zinoviev will definitely not be able to defeat it for a while. So why waste this energy? What's more, Li Xiaofeng didn't want to participate in the struggle between the Soviets and the Party Committee at all. Anyway, Zinoviev had no choice but to do anything to him. He did whatever he wanted in Petrograd, and how free he was!

Of course, if another person comes to Petrograd to preside over the work, Li Xiaofeng may have a slight change in his attitude, and he may really join forces to give Zinoviev eye pills. But forget about Klestinsky, everyone is not the same person!

Why do you say so? The reason is very simple. Klestinsky shines brightly in March 1919 in history. He took advantage of the unfortunate death of Sir and became a new member of the Politburo! To be honest, this is simply a flying change, because before April 1917, this guy had never been elected as a member of the Central Committee, not even an alternate member of the Central Committee!

In two years, he rose like a plane, and his splendor was no less brilliant than Sverdlov in the past. However, the factional belonging of this Klestinsky was not very clear. When he was in the Organization Department of the Central Committee, he cooperated well. However, the reason why he was able to become a member of the Politburo was that Trotsky contributed even more!

The direction in history is also very obvious. From 1919 to 1927, Klestinsky was considered a Trotskyist. It was not until the end of 1927 that when Trotsky's defeat was already obvious, this person began to draw a clear line with Lao Trotsky.

In fact, Klestinsky had not been glorious for long in history. The election of the Politburo member in March 1919 was his most glorious moment. However, with the failure of the Hungarian and German revolutions, Trotsky's line was completely stopped, and when the mentor strongly suppressed the Trotskyists, he, the emerging Politburo member, the Secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat, and the Member of the Central Organization Bureau, was completely beaten and sent him with only a symbolic ambassador to Germany.

Since then, Klestinsky has been in a slump. Not to mention the members of the Politburo, even the Central Committee members have no distinction. It can be said to be a political meteor.

Of course, Li Xiaofeng was not willing to cooperate with him, not because this guy was Trotsky or because he was a political meteor. The main reason was that this guy was a little unkind enough. Trotsky said to him quite well, and strong support made him brilliant. However, when Lao Trotsky needed the most support, this guy chose to stay away from Trotsky. His character was not bad, but he was definitely flawed.

Li Xiaofeng is more willing to cooperate with people with guaranteed character. Like Klestingsky's journey, he might turn around and make a comeback at any time, which is really unbearable. That's why he made the neutral statement before.

However, Klestinsky had a little miscalculated and understood Li Xiaofeng's meaning incorrectly. So when a certain immortal returned from the toilet, he was still very enthusiastic and pulled someone to keep asking for advice. Just when Li Xiaofeng was so annoyed and was about to explain it clearly, the guy suddenly said:

"By the way, before getting on the bus, Comrade Trotsky called me. He had a message asking me to convey to you."

Li Xiaofeng browed. He and Lao Tuo had just broken up. He couldn't say anything in person, but he had to send a message from someone else. There was no problem with saying it here. If there was no explanation, who would believe it!

However, Li Xiaofeng asked quietly: "What should Comrade Trotsky explain to me? As long as it does not violate the principles and party discipline, I will try my best to do it."

In fact, saying this is equivalent to refusal. Li Xiaofeng is not stupid. He relies on his mentor to make trouble. What he fears most is that he is entangled with Trotsky. So it is better to cut the mess quickly and refuse directly!

Klestinsky seemed a little surprised. He didn't know why when he mentioned Trotsky, someone's attitude changed immediately and became unspeakable at all. He clearly remembered that before getting on the bus, Trotsky called him and asked him to set off immediately and take a train to Petrograd with a certain immortal. He also emphasized that he could talk to him about cooperation and could tell him the verbal message if necessary.

Klestinsky hesitated for a moment before saying, "Comrade Trotsky asked me to tell you that your previous suggestions were very good, and he was willing to support your suggestions..."
