Chapter 49: Confrontation (1)
The red brick building on Corsini Platz in Berlin, Germany, is the location of the Great General Staff of the German Imperial Army. Feng. The doors and windows in Schlieffen's office were closed, and Schlieffen, as the chief of the General Staff and army general, was spying on the same person at the moment: "Prime Minister, does Your Majesty really want to do this?" ”
It turned out that the person who was discussing was none other than the Chancellor of the German Empire at this time. Hillings Pfister. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis person's name is obviously inferior to the former Chancellor Bismarck, and of course, there is no one else in German history who can be compared with the "iron-blooded chancellor" Bismarck. But Chillingsfister was not a simple figure, born into the Bavarian royal family, from 1871 he served as Deputy President of the Federal Parliament and Deputy of the Federal State of Bavaria, and in 1894 he was appointed Prime Minister by Wilhelm II after Count Caprivi stepped down as Chancellor of the German Empire. He could not have started without Bismarck, so although Wilhelm II did not like Bismarck, he still adhered to a series of policies that Bismarck formulated for Germany during his tenure.
At this time Chillingsfest said: "In spite of all the grievances of Your Majesty against the Social Democrats, we will take advantage of them when we ought to take advantage of them." In recent years, relations between the empire and its neighbors have become more and more strained, and the 'continental policy' formulated by the prime minister has been almost abandoned. ”
Schlieffen nodded, and then said: "Please rest assured, Prime Minister, I will find out who this 'Vasily' is as soon as possible, if it can really be used by me, it will still be very helpful to curb that polar bear." ”
"That's right, that's your Majesty's opinion as well. Since the coming to power of Nicholas II of Russia, Russia's policy has become more radical and more concerned about the struggle for rights in the Balkans, to the detriment of our allies, Austria-Hungary and the Turkish Empire. If we can use their opposition to break up Russia's power, it will also help our actions in Europe. Chillingsfister said,
"In addition, I have heard that a group of wealthy merchants and children of the nobility from Russia have recently appeared among the upper echelons of the imperial aristocracy, and they are constantly approaching various social circles, which I think is a dangerous signal. If we can open some holes in these people, maybe we will learn more about what we want. ”
Schlieffen replied: "Speaking of these people, I have heard about them recently, although there are not many of them, but these people are more generous than those Americans. I will send someone to keep an eye on them, but I also ask the Prime Minister to get the police of the Ministry of Home Affairs to help, after all, being a soldier is not as useful as the police in some respects. ”
"Okay, I'll say hello to the Ministry of Internal Affairs when I get back." With that, Chillingsfist got up to greet Schlieffen and left the office, while Schlieffen began to arrange some of the next plans of action.
By the time Germany began to investigate Werther, Werther had already left Berlin for Geneva, Switzerland. Žebeva is the second largest city in Switzerland, close to Lake Geneva, the Alps and the Jura Mountains. Lake Geneva in autumn is even more beautiful, with the leaves in the distance gradually turning yellow, but it forms a beautiful scenery with the lake. Witte and Plekhanov were looking at the lake with a fishing rod in their hands, fishing and chatting.
"Vasya, I agree with some of your ideas. Before, we were only thinking about how to complete the revolution and realize socialism in Russia, but you are thinking about how we will build after the revolution. This question is not only lacking in us Russian Marxists, but also in the whole of Europe, which has been pondered by Marxists all over Europe without corresponding answers, and it can be said that a new window has been opened for us from you. Plekhanov said with a smile.
Witt's face was slightly red, obviously Plekhanov's praise was a bit too much for him, after all, those ideas were summarized by him on the basis of later generations and not his own, so he said embarrassedly: "Mr. has won the award......
Before Witte could finish speaking, Plekhanov said: "Don't be too modest, we Marxists are realistic, your ideas have not been before, and now it is up to you to come out, which of course deserves praise." I think you should write down these ideas of yours so that all Marxists can know how we can go about it. ”
"Sir, I'm afraid my current situation is not suitable for me to write." Witt thought for a moment and said.
After hearing this, Plekhanov smiled and said: "Vasya, you are really smart and confused, can't you write it under a pseudonym?" You have to know that your current ideas are like a long drought for the Social Democrats. ”
At this time, a girl came from behind and said: "I think what Mr. said is reasonable, Vasya you can write it, I believe that your pseudonym must be more familiar than your big name." ”
"Miss Rosa, where did you come from? It really scared me. Witt looked disapprovingly at Rosa walking behind him. Luxembourg said.
Luxemburg laughed and said, "Vasya, when did you become so cowardly?" You're a Tsar's Eagle, the Russian 'butcher'! ”
Witt replied lightly: "Don't taunt me, I really like to kill people?" ”
"Okay, why are you so no-joking?" Luxemburg replied indifferently, "I came here to look for you this time, I met Dzerzhinsky in Poland before going to Berlin, he told me some of your thoughts, you told me again last time in Berlin, I thought about it and felt that what you said was very right, now our strength is still united as well, it is really not suitable to separate." ”
Plekhanov and Werther looked at each other, and Plekhanov asked: "Do the Polish and Lithuanian Social Democrats agree?" ”
"The majority of the people agreed that we should complete the revolution together, and after the revolution we were making decisions according to the situation at the time, and only a very small number of members who had been converted from the 'Sem Conference' were opposed, but according to the vote we would wait for the formation of the Communist Party that we, the Social Democrats of Poland and Lithuania, would join it." Luxembourg said.
Witt said happily: "Great, your joining us will be of great benefit to our business. Then he said to Plekhanov: "Sir, with the present situation, I think we can convene the inaugural congress of the party next year, and this time I will return to Berlin and arrange for Ulyanov to be secretly taken from Siberia to Germany, and the place of the congress I suggest is Geneva, so that it will not only be safe, but we can also discuss more issues." ”
"Well, your attention is good. The party must be founded, the party program and the party constitution will be discussed, and we will finally be able to fight under one banner from the Communist Party of the Russian Union, the Communist Party of the Russian Union, and we Russian Marxists! Plekhanov was also particularly pleased.
At this moment, the fishing rod that Witte had placed in the lake suddenly moved, and Luxemburg exclaimed: "Bait!" As a result, with a shout, the fish that had already bitten the bait seemed to know something, and the needle prick was vigorous, causing a ripple in the nearby lake, Werther glanced at Luxembourg reproachfully, and then held the rod steady, tightened the fishing line, and lifted the rod A big fish came out of the water, Werther smiled: "Haha, just call you 'Nikolai'!" I'll steam you tonight! ”
Luxembourg and Plekhanov burst into laughter when they heard this.
