――――――――――――

Numbers, life is really numbers.

Yang Chao has also been president, and he knows very well that when you sit in that position, your psychology will change completely.

When Yang Chao was president, he almost lost himself.

At that point, wealth, beauty, all these biological instincts out of physiological needs are completely satisfied, and then the psychology begins to change, and I become eager to do something business.

This is the reason why all emperors in history like to conquer the world and expand their territory, because when everything becomes so easy to obtain, they really want to do something that is not easy.

At this time, the 'human' aspect of the natural man begins to diminish, and gradually he becomes more and more like a symbol, and he will unnaturally regard himself as a state, and the Sun King of France will say that "I am a country", which is not arrogance, but a real state of king.

Yang Chao once almost had this state, he believed that Starling had reached this state, he would see himself as the embodiment of the country, human nature became less important, at this time his way of doing things was only related to his culture and knowledge, and had nothing to do with morality or anything, because he had broken through to which level, and was no longer bound by morality.

Since we are all the embodiment of the state, do we still care about the individuals who make up the country?

Of course, Stalin is still a human being, he does see himself as a country, but if he wants to maintain this state, he needs the help of others, he needs supporters, how to get others to support him, obviously telling others that he is the country, this is not enough, he sees himself as a country, but ordinary people can't reach this state, so they need material stimulation.

Starling took advantage of this.

The so-called absolute power leads to absolute corruption.

Vladimir established the system of Soviet Russia, thus also opening the root of corruption, in the Vladimir era, the corruption of Soviet Russia began to appear, people of insight in Soviet Russia were very angry about this, at the Ninth National Congress, many delegates have accused all kinds of corruption, "the central and local officials allowed themselves to be so extravagant, their behavior was not inferior to that of the old capitalists, and the workers and peasants dared not speak out against them." ”

The chairman of the prosecutor's office, Kuibyshev, criticized that "the first thing that almost every organ is established is to buy a car and use it for individual travel, even for personal affairs." High-ranking officials "took four people to race horses and play horse races", "the houses of the responsible persons were overly luxuriously decorated", "they spent too much money on restaurants", "gambled", and so on, and the new power class completely imitated the tsarist aristocracy of the past.

In addition, there is the corruption of privilege, and the sanatoriums established by Soviet Russia are also full of injustice, and the Russian senior Dzerzhinsky criticized, "Now it is mainly those people who are filling our sanatoriums? Who got Skyworth? It was the wives of the Soviets, some of whom hid in sanatoriums for half a year, while the workers were weak and sickly", and "it was particularly common among officials to go abroad for medical treatment, to Germany for medical treatment, and even to send their own relatives to accompany them." ”

Other embezzlements and bribery, power-for-money transactions, and embezzlement of public funds are commonplace.

Vladimir is an idealist, he can hardly tolerate this kind of corruption, immediately issued a circular "on the fight against waste", began to vigorously crack down on corruption, only 21 years a year, sentenced 69,641 cases of corruption and bribery, 32,177 cases of duty crimes, these are well documented, obviously I am afraid that there are more fish that have slipped through the net, it can be said that corruption in Soviet Russia was already very common in the Vladimir era.

After Stahlin came to power, he didn't care about this kind of corruption at all, but began to take advantage of this phenomenon, using this kind of selfishness in people's hearts to control his subordinates.

Instead of stopping corruption, Stahlin institutionalized it.

He stipulated that officials have different privileges according to different ranks, and specifically have the right to homestead land, the right to special supply, the right to special education, the right to special succession, the right to special guard, and the right to special support.

In the Vladimir era, it was stipulated that the residence of the People's Commissar could not exceed one room per family, but Starin gave his supporter Molotov a whole floor, and the vast majority of the common people lived together in a small housing commune separated by sheets and curtains for two or three generations.

The so-called special supply right means that organs at all levels have set up special networks of internal stores, restaurants, cold storage, etc., and enjoy different special supplies according to the size and status of their official positions. Holding a supply card, you can buy high-quality and low-cost goods, even including foreign luxury goods, which are difficult for ordinary people to see.

Special education rights are specialized schools for the children of high-ranking officials, from elementary school to university. The right of succession means that after the death of a high-ranking official, he can leave his high-end residence and luxurious summer vacation to his children for life. The special guard right refers to the provision of security personnel to high-ranking officials, and the service personnel who maintain their lives, villas and private residences, and the annual expenditure of a high-ranking official of Molotov's level can reach several million rubles.

The most important thing is the special branching power, all officials who have reached the top level have open accounts in the national bank, and can withdraw money at will without restrictions.

These institutionalized privileges were not formed by Stalin in the later years, but by the system created by Stalin using his personal rights when Comrade Vladimir Lenin was bedridden, and after Vladimir's death, Stalin was able to come to power, and the contribution of this system can be described as extraordinary.

Those who benefited from it, in order to continue to enjoy the privileges, had to elevate the founder of the system, Stalin, to high positions, and then had to remain loyal to Stalin, in order not to lose those privileges. After Starling came to power, when he became brutal, these people regretted it too late, and could only continue to obey Stalin's orders, the first was to fear him, and the second was profitable.

In fact, there is no mystery about this privilege, the Song Dynasty in China implemented this system, the descendants of officials can become officials without passing the imperial examination, and the descendants of high-ranking officials can directly superimpose a certain grade. But this system is indeed very effective against the poisonous system of Soviet Russia.

As long as it works, Starling will use it, and that's the biggest difference between him and Vladimir.

But any system has flaws, this kind of system that obtains power by buying people's hearts, what the ruler is most afraid of is the untrustworthiness of people's hearts, he doesn't know which people are not tempted by material interests, he doesn't know which people are trying to replace him, and Stalin's has been politically assimilated into the incarnation of the state, he wants to transform the country according to his own ideas, he can't lose the power in his hands, he can't let another person replace him, and he can't see the people's hearts clearly, so there will be a large-scale purge, and many people may be wronged, Even Starling knew that they were wronged, but they still had to die, they really didn't commit a crime, but they threatened Stalin, and to threaten Stalin, was to threaten the country, because Starling was the country.

Stalin's number one dog-legged and thug, Beria, is the most loyal dog to find this danger for Starling, just like the roaring dog next to Jiro God.

Beria's keen dog nose had recently made a new discovery, and he was struck by the fact that Tukhachevsky's deeds were being reported in newspapers at home and abroad, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

He told Starling about his concerns, and after an hour of smoking his pipe, he gave a new order.

Stalin highly praised Tukhachevsky's achievements and openly expressed his trust in Tukhachevsky, believing that he would soon eliminate the rotten Tsarist regime and let all the Russian people join the great family of Soviet Russia.

Yang Chao got the newspaper through secret channels, and immediately put it down in his heart.

"Tukhachevsky is going to be finished!"

Yang Chao sighed happily, it was really a sense of accomplishment to wipe out a famous general with his own hands.

Zhang Nian was very puzzled, from the newspapers of Soviet Russia, it can only be seen that Stalin's attention to Tukhachevsky was praised, and Tukhachevsky was praised as the greatest general in Soviet Russia, how could he not trust him, how could he be finished?

Yang Chao sighed: "Did Starin say that Tukhachevsky was the most brilliant commander?" ”

Zhang Nian nodded: "Yes." ”

Yang Chao said again: "Did Starin say that Tukhachevsky was equipped with the most advanced equipment in the world. ”

Zhang Nian nodded: "Yes." ”

Yang Chao also said: "Does Starin say that he believes that Tukhachevsky will soon be able to completely eliminate the tsarist regime." ”

Zhang Nian nodded: "Yes." ”

Yang Chao asked: "So is there no reason why Tukhachevsky should not immediately achieve a final and decisive victory?" ”

Zhang Nian was stunned: "It seems, yes." ”

Tukhachevsky was inexplicably executed by Stalin, no one understands this kind of behavior, why would the leader of a country execute his country's best generals?

If they knew Chinese history, they would be understandable. Liu Bang killed Han Xin, is it really Han Xin who wants to rebel? Is Zhao Gou's killing of Yue Fei really Qin Hui's frame? Zhu Yuanzhang killed Lan Yu, is it really Lan Yu who wants to rebel? Even when the Manchu Qing Dynasty started, didn't Nurhachi kill his own brother Shulhaqi?

The so-called high merit will not be rewarded.

In the eyes of the poisoner, a good subordinate is not a good helper, but a potential threat that may replace him, just as there cannot be two equally brave lions in the lion pack at the same time, only one can be the lion king, and the other must leave, this is the cruel law of the jungle, and every power struggle that breaks out from the bottom will appear.

Liu Bang killed the heroes, and Zhu Yuanzhang killed the heroes, because they were the king of wild dogs, and they were the king of dogs who stood out from a large group of wild dogs, so they had to kill all the competitors.

Qin Shi Huang, Tang Taizong, and Zhao Kuangyin did not kill heroes, Qin Shi Huang was a royal noble, Tang Taizong was a Xianbei magnate, Zhao Kuangyin was born in an official family, these people are pet dogs, they do not have the culture of killing competitors, they are willing to reward their opponents with bones after eating their own meat.
