Chapter 20: Double Happiness Comes to the Door

In contrast to the decision made by the Shanghai Socialist Democratic Labor Party in Warsaw, important members of the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Labor Party are urgently negotiating at the moment. Markhlevsky and Tishka. Jogi Hayes was red-eared at the moment. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Comrades, for so many days we have been here to talk about the possibility of annexation to the Communist Party of the Russian Union," Markhlevsky said. What I'm trying to say now is what are our goals? It is the struggle of the social democratic parties of other capitalist countries for the establishment of a socialist social system. That is to say, we must strive to abolish the exploitation of the working class by the occupiers of land, factories, workshops and mines, and to turn all these means of production into the common property of the working people. Why, then, can't we work with the Social Democrats in Russia? And why should we have this or that selfish prejudice? I hope that the comrades present here will think carefully that cooperation is beneficial to us, and separation is not beneficial to us. ”

"I agree with Comrade Markhlesky!" Walski, another party founder who had been a centrist and had not spoken, said, "I also hope that Comrade Joghith and other comrades will think about this issue." We are now facing the oppression of the brutal tsarist government, and our first task is to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the tsar, and I fully agree with the independent struggle of the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Labour Party into the Communist Party of the Russian Union for the establishment of a socialist system. ”

Walsky's words were inadvertently a turning point in the discussion, and the arrival of a telegram that followed was the straw that broke the camel's back. "Comrades, this is a telegram from a Luxembourg comrade who is far away in Shanghai, and he wants me to read it out at this congress." Walski said, then read:

"Dear comrades of the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Labour Party, in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in England and France, and in the thirties and forties of the nineteenth century in Germany, industry began to develop, and at the very beginning of the development the workers of these countries were already forced to fight against exploitation and poverty. At the beginning of the movement, British workers smashed factories and smashed machines because they thought they were the bane of their poverty. In 1831 the textile workers of Lyon staged an anti-hunger uprising, and in 1844 the Silesian family weavers in Germany and Bohemia also rose up to fight because the exploitation of the factory owners had made them unbearable. The dominant bourgeoisie, relying on the preponderant brutality, quickly suppressed these movements. This was only an early spontaneous manifestation of the anguish and anger of the working masses. At that time, the workers of the uprising did not understand the cause of their poverty or how to improve their situation.

Comrades, only the abolition of private ownership of the means of production and the establishment of a socialist social system were the only effective magic weapons for hundreds of millions of laborers to be freed from suffering. Owen, France's Charr. Fourier and Saint-Simon began to arise in the minds of others. A handful of rich people are idle, poor and extravagant, and the vast number of working people are in dire straits, hungry and cold, forming a sharp contradiction; Capitalism has spread the wind of moral decay among the propertied classes; The workers have become vulgar and barbaric in their spirits, and all this makes these thinkers abhorrent the present social system, and forces them to seek a way out of it. Although the three men took different paths, they were convinced that the existing system was based on extreme injustice and to the detriment of the majority of workers. They all came to the realization that the private property of the capitalists and large landowners was the source of the suffering of the workers, and that the socialist social system was the savior of mankind.

Comrades, for the sake of our aims, we should now put aside our national prejudices for the time being, join hands with the Russian Social Democrats, and join hands to overthrow the tyrannical Tsarist rule and liberate all the masses of the people who are living in hardship because of the exploitation of the capitalists and the big landowners.

Comrades, I would like you to adopt the resolution on the merger of the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Party into the Communist Party of the Russian Union, all for the sake of the people, for the sake of our ideals! ”

When Luxemburg's long telegram came, Jochhays, who had been opposed, also changed his attitude and said: "Comrade Luxemburg is right, I have fallen into narrow nationalism, and I will review it to the Party and the Congress. ”

By this time the majority of the representatives of the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Labour Party had been converted, and of course there were a small number of conservatives among them, who eventually chose to quit the Polish-Lithuanian Social Democratic Labour Party with the consent of the majority, and then formed the League of Polish Democrats, who, after the success of the Russian Revolution, shamefully became Polish counter-revolutionaries and betrayed the whole of Poland for their own benefit.

On the afternoon of July 4, 1897, a brief afternoon thunderstorm cooled down the weather in Nanhui, and delegates to the inaugural meeting of the Communist Party of the Russian Union arrived. While everyone was talking to each other, Yeremayeva suddenly realized that neither Witte nor Lenin had yet arrived, so she asked Krupskaya, who was sitting next to her: "What about Vasya and Ilyich?" The meeting should start right away, why haven't you seen them coming? ”

Krupskaya smiled faintly and said, "Vasya and Ilyich have some problems, but they should be there soon." ”

"What's the matter? Is it more important than today's events? Yeremeeva asked.

"It's a small matter now, but it's important for Russia in the future," Krupskaya said. ”

Back on the morning of July 3, Witte, who was resting at the consulate early in the morning, received the news that Sun Yat-sen had asked for a meeting, so he went to the hotel where Sun Yat-sen was staying with Lenin. "Dr. Sun, I don't know if you have asked us to come today, do you have an answer to the conditions we put forward?" As soon as he sat down, Witt asked.

"Yes, I have discussed this matter with my comrades, and we think that the conditions you put forward are acceptable to us." "But we also have some conditions that we want to get your promise. ”

Lenin asked in English: "What conditions?" ”

"First, all the conditions that you have promised, including the conditions for your country's withdrawal from Manchuria after our country has gained the legitimate power of our country, are all written in the contract, and then we both sign and confirm it." Sun Yat-sen said slowly, "Second, after our side takes Manchuria and establishes political power, your country must immediately recognize our political power as the legitimate power representing China, and your country must guarantee our country's judicial, diplomatic, military, political, and economic independence. Thirdly, we are ready to make a loan to your country to cover the cost of our recruitment and training of personnel, and we hope that you can give a satisfactory price for the interest on the loan. ”

After Sun Yat-sen finished speaking, Witt thought for a while and said: "Dr. Sun, we can agree to these conditions you mentioned, we can provide you with an interest-free loan of 500,000 gold rubles in the early stage for your personnel recruitment, weapon purchase, personnel training and other expenses, in addition to this, we will also send you with advanced military skills to train your personnel, and we will set up your training bases in Lushun and Harbin respectively, I don't know if Dr. Sun can be satisfied?" ”

"Yes!" Sun Yat-sen stood up and said, "Thank you for your support for our revolutionary cause. ”

Witte also smiled and shook hands with Sun Yat-sen, and then Lenin on the side said: "Dr. Sun, I have an additional condition that I don't know if Dr. Sun can agree?" ”

Sun Yat-sen looked at Lenin blankly, and then Lenin said: "I have also stayed in the Qing Kingdom for a while, and according to what I have found and understood, your so-called 'Xingzhonghui' and other revolutionary organizations full of revolutionary ideological trends are all slightly weak, and the organizational discipline is too poor. ”

"What Mr. Lenin said is true, our revolutionary organization is still very weak, and the habits in the rivers and lakes are very heavy, and this is also a headache for us, does Mr. Lenin have a method?" Sun Yat-sen asked.

Lenin replied: "If Dr. Sun believes in us, then we can help Dr. Sun and your revolutionary organization to reorganize into a strong revolutionary party." ”

"Really?" Sun Yat-sen said.

Lenin and Werther nodded heavily, and Lenin said: "If your revolution is to succeed, it must first have a strong revolutionary party, and all party members should obey one leader and one will, and dare to sacrifice themselves for the ideal, so that the success of the revolution can be achieved in the end." ”

"I will talk and discuss this matter with my comrades, and my own heart is fully in favor of such an idea. I think they'll approve of it too. Sun Yat-sen said.

"Okay, we'll talk about this later." "Now let's put the terms of both of us into the treaty, and then we both sign it." After the contract is completed, I will say hello to the Sino-Russian Daosheng Bank in Harbin and open a separate account for Dr. Sun, into which we will remit the promised 500,000 gold rubles. ”

Sun Yat-sen said: "Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”

"Happy working together!" Werther said, clasping his hands with Sun Yat-sen again.
