517 Laoto's Agent
As long as Mironov doesn't take the initiative to die, Li Xiaofeng can rest assured. With him and Fu Longzhi in Ukraine, neither Peterliula nor Makhno is afraid... So a certain immortal came in a hurry and then left in a hurry.
A day later, Li Xiaofeng appeared in Brest, Belarus. The city was also well-known in the history of World War I and World War II. In February 1918, the German-Austrian Group signed the famous "Brest Contract" with Soviet Russia. When World War II broke out, the Soviet Red Army, who guarded the fortress, told the Germans and Russia to fight to the end with their immortal will.
However, in September 1919, the fortress that later guarded the Soviet border did not belong to the Soviet Union, or even Russia. The last force of Belarus Lada was entrenched here. For Belarus' "conqueror" Tukhachevsky, winning the fortress was not a big problem at all.
Indeed, for the Bolsheviks, the problem of Belarus is no longer a problem, but after "restoring" Belarus, the next step is a big problem.
Trotsky meant that after taking Brest, the Belarusian Front should directly point to Poland and flatten Poland with the destruction of Gula. Not only should we establish a new socialist Poland, but we should also continue to move westward and let the flames of revolution burn in Germany again.
To say a interruption, the German Communist Party led by Luxembourg and Li Pokernesi is now a betrayal dog. The Bavarian uprising was extinguished, and the German revolution was ruthlessly pressed back just after it showed its head. This result was really not good for Trotsky.
So Lao Tuo was a little anxious. The German proletariat had stopped the dishes. Austria also stopped the dishes. Only the Hungarian proletariat and the Czechoslovak proletariat were left to support it in Eastern Europe. If he did not support it quickly, his conception of the World Revolution would really go bankrupt!
Therefore, Trotsky hoped that the faster Tukhachevsky's actions, the better, but not everyone in the party agreed with his opinion. Needless to say, the Lenin faction was more concerned about the issue of Ukraine. When this big granary could be taken back, it was related to the food problem of more than 100 million people in Russia. Today, when the famine is getting worse, the food problem is the top priority!
Therefore, the tutor hopes that Tukhachevsky's Belarusian front will not rush to advance eastward, go south first, help Fulongzhi, and get Ukraine as soon as possible.
The mentor's opinions are very important, especially the Bolshevik central leadership, who is currently tortured by the food problem, has dozens of eyes staring at the food, and they want to go out to grab the food.
For example, Trotsky's Tiegomo Bukharin did not stand completely with Trotsky at this critical moment: "The most important problem at present is the food issue. Without food, socialism cannot be built. It cannot even stabilize the Soviet regime. Starting from May this year, from Petrograd to Moscow, a series of peasant riots broke out from north to south. The peasant brothers who once stood with us Bolsheviks for revolution were gradually drifting away from us because of hunger... If this continues, the foundation for the unity of workers, peasants and soldiers will be completely destroyed!"
Bukharin looked at Trotsky, and this glance was very meaningful. Then he continued: "September and October are the season for food harvest. Since 1918, we have lost Ukraine's precious granary. Without Ukraine's food, we have been hungry for a year. At this moment, most people have consumed the originally small amount of food and are hungry! We are now urgently in need of Ukraine's food, the faster the better, the more the better! Otherwise, if we continue to make Ukraine so chaotic, these precious grains are likely to fall into the hands of the enemy. I am not exaggerating. If Peterliula burns all the granaries in Ukraine as required by the Group of Allies, then the revolution is likely to be fatal toll!"
Every time Bukharin said something, Trotsky's face looked ugly, especially when Bukharin equated the food issue with the future of the revolution, Lao Tuo's face looked ugly than the bottom of the pot.
Trotsky was very angry and thought Bukharin was too short-sighted. It was true that the food crisis was serious, but is there only one solution to this problem to recover Ukraine?
Trotsky believes that the best answer to this question is not Ukraine, but Germany, Austria and Hungary. He believes that if the world revolution is victorious and a socialist regime is fully established within Europe, then all problems will not be a problem.
At that time, Russia lacked food, so could it be supported by brotherly Western and Central European countries. Is it difficult to solve Russia's food problem with the productivity of Western and Eastern Europe?
Trotsky believed that Lenin and Bukharin were too short-sighted and only knew how to surround the circle of old Russia. Compared with Western and Central Europe, what is a mere Ukraine worth? It’s a drizzle!
So is Trotsky's answer really better than Lenin and Bukharin's answer? Not necessarily! It is true that Western and Central Europe have more developed productivity, but it must be seen that after a long world war, the above-mentioned regions are only 50 steps and 100 steps compared to Russia.
If life in Western Europe and Central Europe is so comfortable and easy, how could William II be forced to step down, and how did the Austro-Hungarian Empire collapse itself? Obviously, life in this area is not easy, or it cannot be lived anymore. Only those who cannot survive have the courage to revolution and rebel!
Let me put it this way, Trotsky's method of "demolting the east wall and repairing the west wall" is that there is no wall to dismantle.
It can be imagined that at that time, Trotsky, who drew a big pie, would probably be difficult to end. If it were not done well, it would be the beginning of another comprehensive collapse and chain reaction.
This is one of them. Secondly, although the Bolsheviks all had confidence in the World Revolution, to be honest, this confidence was more like a kind of self-hypnosis. It was like a warrior facing the dragon muttering to himself, "I'm not afraid."
Think about it, it was difficult and dangerous to deal with a civil war, and it was almost turned over several times. This was Russia, which had the weakest imperialist and counter-revolutionary forces. Even the Russian revolution was so difficult and so dangerous. Is it easy to go to the base camp of old imperialism to make a revolution?
To be honest, many of the big men in the party are actually very nervous. They may be shouting about the future of the revolution, but their hearts are filled with haze. Everyone will think, what if the World Revolution fails? What should I do if it fails?
I'm afraid the only one who hasn't thought about this problem much is Trotsky. This guy has been completely hypnotized by his theory. There is only one thought left in his mind: "The revolution must be exported, and the world revolution must be advocated. Only in this way can one succeed and win, this is the only correct route!"
Anyway, Trotsky was already a devil at that time and could not listen to any other opinions. So when facing Bukharin's "betrayal", his face became so ugly and so angry.
Almost the moment Bukharin finished his speech, he couldn't wait to stand up and retort, "To Poland, I want to export revolutions to China and Eastern Europe, it's already a step forward! The conditions are now fully ripe. Of course, the problem of famine is very serious, but it is not insurmountable. We can grit our teeth. After these few months, once victory is achieved in Poland and Germany, the situation in Europe is no! The pattern of the whole world will be completely changed. At that time, the imperialist blockade will inevitably collapse. We will have various channels to obtain food, and the problem of famine will be self-defeating!"
Speaking of this, Trotsky also glared at Bukharin fiercely and said passionately: "If we only stare at the domestic one-point land and only look at Ukraine, we must miss the opportunity! Comrades, the opportunity is too rare. The reactionary forces of Germany and Poland are now in the weakest state. This is the best time for us to eliminate them! If we miss this opportunity, we will regret it for life!"
The reasons given by Trotsky and Bukharin made the big men of the Central Committee very confused. It seemed that the opinions of both sides were very reasonable and no one could convince anyone. There was no choice in the end.
"Continue to discuss and research? What kind of shit is the conclusion!" When Trotsky returned to his office, he sweared to a rare swear word. From this point, we can also see how anxious he is now.
But what's the point of being anxious alone? If the Central Committee does not follow him and is in vain!
"Bukharin is always losing track at critical moments!" Ulitsky muttered angrily.
However, his words did not receive a response from Trotsky or Likov. The reason is very simple. Trotsky was not suitable for echoing, and Likov could not echo. Why? Ulitsky simply said that Bukharin did not maintain consistency with Trotsky on the issue of the Brest Contract, which led to Trotsky being punished by Lenin very miserably. As a result, Lenin's authority in the party was unprecedentedly high, resulting in Trotsky being passive for many years.
This is the truth, but no matter what, Bukharin is now a Trotsky giant. If Trotsky turns over old accounts regardless of the consequences, it will be suspected of tearing him apart. What's the benefit of tearing him apart? What's more, there was a Likov sitting in the room. At that time, Likov stood firmly on Bukharin. When Ulitsky made such a fuss, Likov would be quite embarrassed. Which end should Likov speak for?
So neither Likov nor Trotsky could only pretend not to hear it. Otherwise, there is no need to talk about the serious matters next, let’s talk about internal conflicts first!
Sometimes even Trotsky thinks that Ulitsky is not smart enough to speak, so he will do his best to help. You don’t think about it. When Bukharin was tinkering with the left-wing communist alliance, you were also actively responding and still a backbone. Now you are turning aside at this time, is it interesting to make a comeback? But Trotsky can’t blame Ulitsky yet. Who told Ulitsky to help him speak?
Trotsky skipped the topic and said, "If you continue to drag on this, then the opportunity will be wasted..."
Before Trotsky finished speaking, Ulitsky responded positively: "I agree that time is not waiting for anyone now. If necessary, you must take action first and then report!"
Likov frowned. Although he agreed with Trotsky's opinion, it did not mean that he agreed to leave the central government alone. No matter how he looked at it, it was a disorganized and undisciplined behavior. It was a little mistake and the consequences were extremely serious.
"Comrade Likov. What expression do you have?"
Ulitsky was unhappy. When he criticized Bukharin just now, he could understand that Trotsky didn't speak, but he was dissatisfied with Likov. In his opinion, Likov should have a positive position and criticized Bukharin with him. This is the right thing to do. But this guy chose to pretend to be stupid. When he echoed Trotsky again, this guy actually showed a constipation expression again, which made him even more unhappy. He felt that Likov was planning to be Bukharin's second!
At that time, Ulitsky could not bear it and scolded: "Comrade Likov, is your position not firm? If it weren't for Comrade Trotsky, would you have been sitting at the Central Committee for a meeting easily and comfortably?"
This made Likov's face change rapidly. Ulitsky's words were too slap in the face. Stalin had previously reported that he had appointed foreign spies as special envoys, which led to his disadvantage in the gold battle and almost sent Chabayev, the fighting hero who captured Kolchak. Anyway, Steel had to hold him accountable for his leadership, which was to make him resign.
Likov was quite passive at that time, almost blocked by steel and beaten up wildly. If Trotsky had not spoken for him in time and excused him, he would have put the blame on Chabayev. Chairman Likov, who would have done the final result.
Ulitsky's current meaning is that Likov doesn't know how to repay kindness and is a pure villain. How can Likov stand it?
To be honest, Likov's passiveness has a great relationship with Trotsky. If it weren't for Trotsky's request, he would have sent a special commissioner to participate in the gold issue, how could he be so slutty? But Ulitsky was entrusted with gratitude, and this was really unbearable!
Seeing that Likov was about to explode, Trotsky quickly interrupted: "Now is not the time to blame each other. The more this time, the more united we need. And Comrade Likov was right, putting aside the central government's risk of doing solo work is too great. We cannot be so reckless!"
Ulitzki was still unwilling to accept it and said angrily: "Are you just waiting like this? We have missed the opportunity more than once while waiting. This time we can't wait like this anymore!"
"I know!" Trotsky quickly appeased Ulitsky, and he did not want to wait. He said confidently: "Of course we cannot wait, but at the same time we cannot leave the central government alone. I mean, can we let the comrades in Poland take positive action and let them open up the situation?"
Ulitsky and Likov looked at each other and were a little strange. Poland had always had a bad relationship with Russia and the Bolsheviks, and neither side had much intersection. Where can I go to find Polish comrades at this time? Isn’t this nonsense?
But Trotsky never talks nonsense. The reason why he said this was that he had found the so-called Polish comrade. This comrade was Boleslaw Beirut.
This Beirut comrade may not be familiar with many of his comrades, but he is indeed a fierce man (at least when wiping his feet, Poland is considered very "strong"). Born in 1892, he devoted himself to the revolution very early, joined the left wing of the Polish Socialist Party at the age of 20, and later became one of the founders of the Polish Workers' Party. After the victory of World War II, he served as the General Secretary of the Polish Unified Workers' Party and the first president of the Polish People's Republic. When he kicked his legs in 1956, Taizu of this dynasty also sent a condolence message to commemorate.
Of course, the most glorious moment of this fierce man was not later as the president of the foot cloth under the support of the Soviet Union, but advocated the Krakow Uprising in 1923 (you should have a hundred poisons for this uprising). Although the result of the Krakow Uprising was not particularly ideal, it was not very bad. In short, Beirut, who was in his early thirties, fully demonstrated his ability in this uprising, which laid the foundation for his future entry into Poland.
However, in 1919, Beirut really had no reputation. Anyway, when Ulitsky or Likov heard his name, his first reaction was: "Who is that?"
"Comrade Beirut is an outstanding representative of the Polish Social Workers' Party. When Pisusky was acting counter-incidentally and frequently interfering in other people's internal affairs, this comrade was able to stand up bravely and publicly criticize his crimes. His courage and class position are very worthy of recognition!"
In fact, these are nonsense. The real reason is that Trotsky really couldn't find a suitable "agent" in Poland, so he could only draw the general from a short man and carry out Beirut who took the initiative to surrender to him for use.
"We should support Comrade Beirut and help him establish a revolutionary army belonging to the Polish proletariat. During the period when the central government failed to reach an agreement on the issue of line, Comrade Beirut would carry out work in advance to lay a solid foundation for the comprehensive implementation of the World Revolution!"
Likov understood what Trotsky meant. Now he couldn't openly putting aside the central government and making trouble on the Polish issue, but he could use Beirut as an agent and secretly use the Polish Workers' Party as a guise to secretly visit Chen Cang!
In fact, such methods are not new at all. Didn’t a fairy support the Jews to gain the opportunity to intervene in the German and Polish issues? What’s wrong with Trotsky’s copying now? Even Trotsky’s agent is much better than the Jews. At least Beirut is a Marxist, and the Polish Workers’ Party behind him is also a serious socialist party.
Likov thought for a while and suggested: "It's okay to do this, but I suggest that it's better to advocate this through the Communist International!"
Trotsky's eyes suddenly lit up. Likov's advice was too good. It was indeed legitimate to do this by the Communist International. Even Lenin could not say anything. But Trotsky immediately frowned again. He did not have much power in the Communist International, and it was temporarily considered Zinoviev's territory. Before, he had a very unpleasant argument with Dabingface. What should I do? (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
