Winston Churchill was an interesting man, he was a loner before World War II, and after the end of World War II, the wartime cabinet had to be dissolved. Churchill resigned and will be elected. The Conservative Party, which was full of confidence and thought that it would be successful in winning the election with Churchill's contribution to the war, suffered a crushing defeat in the general election, and although Churchill himself was elected to the parliament, the Conservative Party won only 197 seats, while the Labour Party won 393 seats, and was able to form a government, and the leader of the Labour Party, Clement 61 Attlee, was elected Prime Minister. This was largely due to the fact that Labour's goal of building a welfare state was extremely attractive to post-war British society, which was devastated by the war. Churchill, who led the people of LinkedIn to victory, was abandoned, and he later quoted the ancient Greek writer Plutarch as saying, "Being ungrateful to their great men is the mark of a great nation." "Churchill has officially stepped down as Prime Minister.

This sour taste is very familiar to Chen Ke, and it is the tone of the incompetent. Chen Ke himself loved this kind of pantothenic acid the most in the era when he was useless. So when Churchill led his troops to Asia to demonstrate, Chen Ke felt a little full of joy. An incompetent person's greatest hobby is to speak out and bluff. Chen Ke himself is well aware of this, and these people in the People's Party are the targets of the most ruthless purge.

Churchill had to deal with the doers of the BJP, and the comrades of the BJP knew that it was a personal problem whether they were smart or not, whether they were sages or not, and that being smart was the essential problem of self-destruction. Things turned out even more than Chen Ke expected. Regardless of the circumstances under which Britain fired the first shot, it was Britain who fired the first shot. The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army immediately refused to give the British demonstrator fleet a chance to fire a second shot, in keeping with tradition.

Commander Zhu Yao's telegram was still timid, he either pretended to be pretended to be confused, and at the end he said very shamefully that he was willing to take responsibility. Chen Ke was a little angry about this, and his anger was not because Zhu Yao fought this battle. It's that Zhu Yao's approach is too hypocritical, and the hypocrisy is a bit excessive. Therefore, Chen Ke did not talk about the issue of war at all in his telegram, but asked the party committee of the military region what it wanted to say.

dealt with Zhu Yao's matter first, Chen Ke invited Li Runshi over, and the two talked about it.

First of all, China sent a circular to all major countries, informing them that after the British naval fleet fired at the Chinese planes, China first demanded that Britain hand over the perpetrators, but the British fleet refused to obey. China had no choice but to annihilate the British fleet.

This is enough news to jaw other countries, and it is also news that Chen Ke and Li Runshi don't care about at all. Both of these are very pragmatic beings, and there are few things in this world that can make these two feel overwhelmed. Even the war with Britain did not make Chen Ke and Li Runshi mess up the slightest.

After discussing this matter, Chen Ke talked about the things that made Chen Ke feel at a loss, which had nothing to do with foreign countries and was purely a domestic matter in China. Chen Ke's dream of China does have some expectations of "600 million Shenzhou Shunyao". Every Chinese can reach the level of at least Kong Laoer, and communism should be realized without pressure. And Li Runshi is obviously more than Kong Laoer.

"What do you think are the problems that hinder human progress?" Li Runshi did not mention Chen Ke's idea at all, although it was indeed very arrogant.

Chen Ke replied: "I have very little research on physical causes, biological causes, everyone is subtly different. But socially, the biggest problem is that everyone has to entangle all the problems together. In essence, Chinese culture is advanced enough, and many people are opportunistic. They all want to take advantage of the alienation of Confucianism, the good guy and the bad guy, and want to establish the idea that they are either absolutely good or absolutely bad. As long as such an ideological system and understanding are established, then everyone can prove that they are correct in one place, and then they can make themselves absolutely correct and good people. Then use this to establish yourself as unshakable. In the final analysis, it's the metaphysical one. ”

Chen Ke himself was proficient in this way before, but because he was a waste, he ran into walls everywhere. When he doesn't think he's right, he starts to have power. If it weren't for the fact that Chen Ke had already begun to try to exalt the idea of materialism at that time, he was afraid that he would have gone to the other side. That is, power is everything, and bad guys are capable beings.

As a well-known theoretician in the party, Li Runshi naturally understands this very well. He laughed, "You have to change your nature, change your biology." Where is it so easy for humans to understand themselves? And most people don't have the ability and opportunity to try another life. But one thing is inevitable, no one can follow the absolutely correct path. History, after all, spirals. ”

"So I hope that Comrade Li Runshi can do more work in this area, and do more work in human behavior and ideology." Chen Ke replied.

Li Runshi didn't expect Chen Ke to assign him a new task, and he immediately refused, "I have limited research ...... these jobs."

Chen Ke interrupted Li Runshi's words, "You must have heard the rumor that I want you to be the next party chairman. I have to tell you, it's true. ”

Li Runshi was stunned, Chen Ke's words were too unexpected, this was not a joke. This will be the decision that will determine China's future. And Chen Ke himself is not a person who would joke about such things.

"I want to destroy everything in old China, including the old ideas of China. Push the people to a higher level, so that every citizen becomes a laborer and a member of the ruling class. Of course, this requires the development of the productive forces as the foundation, but the development of the productive forces alone cannot do this. Chen Ke replied calmly, as if it were completely different from the intensity of what he was talking about.

"It is very difficult for a person to seek truth from facts, and if you want to be realistic, you must first recognize how incompetent you are. Even if we clearly point out the right path, those who have not experienced it have not experienced it. The next problem is that a person cannot find his own place, he does not know who he is. People will choose imitation, and imitation is the most harmful thing, because science does not need imitation, and the laws of physics and chemistry of nature already exist. It must be used for the purpose of making a destiny. As for the imitation of other people's behavior, the vast majority of the purpose is to imitate success. Success cannot be imitated, because in this world, there is only one thing about whether the work is completed or not, and there is no such thing as success. Today's success is likely to be the foreshadowing of tomorrow's failure. Today's stepping stone may be tomorrow's stumbling block. To imitate success is to grasp the past, to hope to control the future, not to live in the present. Who can imitate the reality of the moment? There is no way to imitate it. ”

"If every Chinese can look at problems realistically, not to learn to seek truth from facts, but to really seek truth from facts." Then China has really entered a great era. There is no doubt about it. ”

Li Runshi listened to Chen Ke's words quietly, and the People's Party members probably realized this, and everything that did not experience it would be washed away. But if you want the whole of China to be able to reach this level, the workload is a bit too much. And it's clearly unrealistic. So Li Runshi asked tentatively: "Is Chairman Chen dissatisfied with which comrades?" ”

"If I'm dissatisfied with anyone, then I don't have to do anything else, just be dissatisfied every day. Have you read Comrade Zhu Yao's telegram? After Chen Ke finished speaking, he handed Zhu Yao's telegram to Li Runshi.

After Li Runshi read it, he thought about Chen Ke's words a little, and he couldn't help laughing.

Chen Ke also smiled helplessly, "No one should learn from others, I can't help but want to promote a lot of Kong Laoer's ideas at this point." But what I'm afraid of now is that someone wants to take the opportunity to make trouble, and then come up with something like this kind of thing of the Great Sage and the Supreme Master, whether this hat is fastened on Kong Laoer's head or on my head, this is a big failure of the revolution. Those who are really able to do things know that they are inadequate, and they have problems doing everything. The more people who don't do things, the more they like to argue for justice, and the more they like to advocate the existence of absolute justice. Because justice does not need to be practiced, justice does not need to be scientifically verified, justice can only be self-proclaimed. ”

Of course, Li Runshi would not think that Chen Ke was unhappy because of Zhu Yao, and even if he did, it was because Zhu Yao tried to learn to "be responsible for the whole". It's great that one person can be responsible for himself, for his job, but who can be responsible for the whole? At least the system itself has determined everyone's duties, and Zhu Yao has already taken responsibility for his duties by beating the British. The system did not hand over the right to declare war and diplomatic power to Zhu Yao, and Zhu Yao's statement was obviously out of bounds. And the most important thing is that Zhu Yao didn't want to cross the line himself, but he didn't understand what was going on.

Li Runshi never thought that there was any need to sanctify the ideology and system, and Li Runshi could fully understand Chen Ke's dissatisfaction and even uneasiness. And Li Runshi has already understood at this time why Chen Ke wants Li Runshi to be the next party chairman. Because Li Runshi himself knows all this, and he is sincerely willing to explain it clearly to the people.

"Is Chairman Chen afraid that Comrade Zhu Yao will have even more wrong ideas?" Li Runshi asked.

"Yes." Chen Ke replied, "Not only Comrade Zhu Yao, but I am afraid that other comrades will have even more wrong ideas. For example, if I criticize Comrade Zhu Yao now, some people will immediately try to find the so-called correct way to deal with it. They think that Comrade Zhu Yao has done something wrong, but in fact, I don't think that Comrade Zhu Yao has done anything wrong at all, I just think that what Comrade Zhu Yao has done is not scientific enough. If I say this, there will be comrades who feel that Comrade Zhu Yao has done nothing wrong, and they will be able to learn from Comrade Zhu Yao's practice. There is no grass on the busy road, and there is no hair on the smart head. But in order to make others say that he is smart, he shaves his head, which is called self-cleverness. This is the scariest thing. ”

"Comrade Stalin was afraid that the comrades of the CPSU would be clever enough to try to maintain steely discipline before he carried out the purge?" Li Runshi asked.

"That's definitely one of the reasons." Chen Ke replied, "The revolution is really only the first step in this 10,000-mile long march. ”

As if to prove Chen Ke's pessimistic expectations, some people at the Politburo meeting accused Zhu Yao of starting a war without regard to the deployment. Hearing Chen Ke clearly say that "the victor is not condemned," some comrades' eyes immediately changed a little, and their words also changed. Li Runshi saw it very clearly, and he also believed Chen Ke's pessimistic expectations.

But the southward strategy had become an unshakable thing by this time, and after the British delivered meat to their door, and China took out three battleships, three heavy cruisers, and a dozen light cruisers and destroyers, the British Asian fleet was dealt an unprecedented blow. If the British wanted to retaliate against China, at least to maintain their naval power in Asia, they would have to send other fleets to Asia.

After receiving the news of the naval battle, the first reaction of all countries was surprise. Through various channels, we will ask whether this matter is true, and if so, what is the subsequent development of the matter.

Fighting and declaring war are two different things, and even if Britain suffered such a big loss, the British cabinet did not fully agree on a declaration of war. The scale of the battle was indeed large, but the British were not prepared for a war with China in Asia. For two years, Chamberlain devoted all his energies to strengthening Britain's home defense, a completely defensive gesture. In the cabinet, it is people like Churchill who want to jump out first, and such people do not have any advantage in the British cabinet at all.

At this time, Churchill was in Singapore, and after the annihilation of the demonstration fleet, Churchill's deceitful man had no effective way to deal with it, Singapore's fleet was simply not enough to launch an attack on China, and the industrial capacity of the British colonies was very weak, especially in Asia and the Indian Ocean region. There was no home port in the Far East capable of repairing British warships, and the level of shipbuilding in India was simply not enough to support shipyards that met the standards of the British Navy. However, there are things that deceive people who are not ordinary people. That's a mouthpiece!

As early as 1910, when Churchill was the Home Secretary, he was criticized for his unrelenting attitude in the face of workers' demonstrations and strikes, and he ordered the military and police to suppress strikes and demonstrations many times during his tenure, the most famous action was the "Killing of Sednay Street" in January 1911, when the police learned that a group of Eastern European anarchists had robbed a jewelry store, Churchill personally arrived at the scene to direct the siege, mobilizing artillery, troops, A photojournalist took a picture of Churchill at the scene, and the photograph of Churchill being photographed at the scene of the killing on Sednay Street was greatly exaggerated, and Conservative leader Arthur 61 Balfour taunted Churchill: "He (Churchill) and the photographer have put their precious lives on the line." I know what this photographer is doing, but what is this respectable gentleman doing? ”

When Churchill was appointed Lord of the Navy in October 1911, he initially had a lot of friction with his subordinates, demanding that his subordinates strictly obey his authority, dismiss those who did not submit to him, and allow junior officers and men to make remarks critical of their superiors. Although it was well received at the grassroots level, it displeased the four sea ministers who were directly subordinate to the Minister of the Navy.

After learning that the deterrence operation led by him was completely bankrupt, Churchill did not say anything to the British cabinet, but spoke to the media through channels, "We have been attacked by the Chinese shamefully, the Royal Navy has paid tragic sacrifices, and now Britain is at war." In this war, I have nothing but blood, toil, tears and sweat for everyone. You ask: What is our purpose? I can reply in one word: victory, to fight for victory at all costs, no matter how terrible, no matter how far and difficult the road, to strive for victory, because without victory there can be no survival. ”

The British Empire still had an extreme psychological advantage over China, and after Churchill's highly incendiary speech was announced, it immediately set off a huge wave in Britain. Britain demanded severe punishment of China and a repeat of the victory of 1840. Without even trying to win over enough allies first, British parliamentarians demanded that the British government declare war on China.

Churchill's first provocation against China was completely ignored, as was the first firing of the British warship. In short, Churchill's responsibility was never brought to the fore, much to Chamberlain's chagrin.

Chamberlain himself was not opposed to declaring war on China, but Chamberlain's plan was not such a simple declaration of war, but Britain first rallied its allies and used propaganda to portray Britain as a passive defender of justice. These plans were all messed up by Churchill, who presented an empire that was immediately discouraged when challenged, a hard-line man who wanted to maintain his dignity and condescendingly wage war against China.

However, at this point, there was no room for maneuver, and under strong pressure from Parliament and the Cabinet, the British government officially declared war on China on February 4, 1939.

Chamberlain's uneasiness was then proved by the facts, and Britain's condescending attitude did not bring benefits to Britain, which was considered by many countries to be a killer. At least that's what the United States thinks. Although the U.S. Congress does not want to see China, which filmed "The Legend of the Demon of Maoshan," the upper echelons of the United States are also uneasy about China's growing voice in the Pacific region. However, the deep-seated hostility of the Americans towards the British and Roosevelt's inclination towards Britain set off a wave of intentions in the United States to demand that the United States "sit on the hill and watch the tiger fight." Even Roosevelt himself did not see this as the time for the powers to support Britain.

France and England were more in line with Germany in dealing with Germany, except that France was in a defensive posture at this time. They themselves hid behind the Maginot Line, opposite the "Siegfried Line", which the Germans were building intensively. The French could also only mentally support the British.

The Soviet Union and Germany were extremely welcoming of the war between China and Britain, and both countries hoped that Britain would suffer a big loss in Asia. This was good for both the USSR and Germany.

The only one who jumped out to really support Britain was Poland, whose authorities strongly condemned China and even considered following Britain in declaring war on China. Moreover, the Polish authorities also expressed to Britain that they were willing to send troops to join the British in an expedition to China. In view of Poland's weak navy, Britain considered it a burden for Britain to use its own war capabilities by bringing the Poles together in the war. Therefore, the British government officially stated that it welcomed Poland's attitude and Poland's declaration of war on China. But Britain politely declined Poland's request to send troops into the war.

Although a significant part of the Polish authorities does not even know where the specific location of China is. On February 6, 1939, Poland officially declared war on China.

Britain's declaration of war on China was later recognized as the beginning of World War II.
