"Three months to go!"

Putting down the telegram sent by the ambassador to Russia, and casually pressing the cigarette butt in the ashtray, Chen Moran's brows were still tightly locked, Rasputin's death was just an event in history.

However, this event marked another event - the fall of the Russian Empire, just as Rasputin predicted, three months later, with the outbreak of the "February Revolution" and the subsequent abdication of Nicholas II, the Russian Empire disappeared into human history, and after another half a year, a regime unprecedented in human history appeared in Russia and influenced the development of world history for more than 70 years.

Fingers tapped on the desktop, Chen stood up silently, and then stood by the window, looking at the garden outside the window, his expression became extremely serious, pushed open the window, and the cold wind with a chill came to his face, only to make his mind clear, and the mind that was originally asleep due to heating instantly returned to his senses.

"The end of one empire means the rise of another!"

Silently whispering this sentence on his lips, Chen Moran knew very well that in history, the fall of the Russian Empire meant that the rise of the Soviet Russian Empire, from the October Revolution to the later Soviet era, was an unprecedentedly powerful period in Russian history, and that Soviet Russia and the later Soviet Union entered the ranks of the world's advanced countries more than ten years later, and had a significant impact on the international stage, and the values and ideology of the Soviet Russian Empire can be said to be the natural enemy of China.

Unlike other countries, China will have to directly face the influence from Soviet Russia, thousands of kilometers of land borders, pressure from the north, China in the future will need to face, especially the revolutionary export from Soviet Russia, which has never been for the purpose of "liberating all mankind", but for the interests of Soviet Russia itself, for its expansion, for the existence of its country.

If China cannot nip Soviet Russia in the bud. Then in the coming decades, China will have to bear heavy defense pressures. Always be wary of strong enemies from the north. Vigilance against the invasion of a strong enemy on land, the heavy burden of national defense and the ensuing "domestic revolution" will hit China hard, making it impossible for China to become a major power in the world in the first half of the 20th century. and eventually become a great power on a par with the United States.

"Stop him!"

Although he had already made a decision in his heart, it was for Chen Moran. This remains a difficult choice to make.

In the coming years, millions or even more troops will be thrown into the Russian battlefield to suppress the revolution in Russia. Rebuild the Russian Empire. It will cost China millions of casualties and heavy military spending, and perhaps through the marriage of a son, the two empires can be combined into one, but ...... What about the future?

For the fear of the future, to be exact. It was the unbelief in the Han nation and the Russian nation that made Chen Moran hesitate all the time. But he never dared to show this kind of heart in front of outsiders, because, a few months later, after that revolution, he had to use his own will to convince everyone, to convince everyone, that it was extremely necessary and in China's interests for China to send troops to Russia!

But can a nation of 500 million people really rule another nation of more than 100 million people? Moreover, the skin color and customs of the two ethnic groups are different. At this time, Chen Moran's mind once again appeared that this morning, the conversation with Guan Mingtang.

"Your Majesty, if you have to take into account that if Russia revolts, you will face thirty years of guerrilla warfare."

The words paused, Guan Mingtang looked at His Majesty and put forward his opinion.

"In Europe, there has always been the Yellow Peril theory, once China and Russia merge into one empire, then, in the future Europe, the Yellow Peril theory will be more prevalent, and will be recognized by all countries, and the countries out of hostility to us, it is very likely to support Russia's domestic opposition forces, by providing them with weapons, funds, etc., to launch a guerrilla war against us, at that time, the whole of Russia will become a battlefield, into a battlefield against us." …,

Guerrilla warfare!

Guan Mingtang's words reminded Chen Moran of the Vietnam War and the Afghan War, the former confronted the United States with the support of the entire "red world" and dragged the United States into the quagmire of war, while the latter dragged the Soviet Union into the quagmire of guerrilla warfare with the support of the United States, and put the Soviet economy on a heavy burden of war.

"There is no doubt about it."

After being silent for a long time, Chen Moran said.

"The British, the French, the Germans, and even the Americans, in the future, may start a guerrilla war against us in Russia, but this guerrilla war will not be endless, and for us there seems to be other options, you know, there is no country in the whole world like Russia, where the majority of the people are oppressed, and the Russian nation is only 43% of the total population, less than half; The rest belong to other races and have no rights. Of the total population of 170 million in Russia, about 100 million are oppressed and disenfranchised ......"

At this time, Chen Moran involuntarily quoted Umilyanov's words.

"Monsen likened Russia to a garbage bin, saying that it was barely sustained by the rusty iron hoop of the tsarist government, and that when we entered Russia, we could give them a lot of power that they did not have in the past......"

When mentioning his own thoughts, Chen Moran's mind involuntarily came to the historical Soviet Union, and the oppression of the Soviet era, especially the Stalin era, was more severe than that of any tsar. Ukrainians, Belarusians, Balts, Cossacks, Caucasians, and many of their ethnic minorities will not forget the horrors of his decade of collectivization (1928-1938). During this decade, some 10 million people were slaughtered, conscripted and starved to death. In 1941, 40 million people in the three small states of Ukraine, Belarus and the Baltic alone longed for liberation.

Therefore, in order to dismantle the Russian behemoth, all an invader has to do is to enter Russia as a liberator, put an end to its collectivization policy, and restore the system of private property of the people, so that he can win not only the support of the national minorities. It could also disintegrate Stalin's army, since they were mostly made up of collectivized peasants.

That's why Stalin was afraid of the German invasion, and Stalin didn't believe that the enemy would be stupid enough to "fight a war only with the army", but their enemies were really so "stupid", so what about China?

Wait until 1941 to solve the problems of Soviet Russia?

Recalling the conversation with Guan Mingtang in the morning, Chen Moran once again picked up a pencil and drew on a piece of paper:

"In 1917, there was a revolution in the target, and the resistance was the weakest, but the problems within the target were relatively calm, and there was no room for goodwill......"

After writing down such a series of analyses, Chen Moran thought for a while and continued to write on the paper.

"In 1941, due to the long-term collectivization and national oppression within the target, there were a large number of dissidents in the country, which, if fully utilized, could enter as liberators, so that they could gain support from the people. In addition to the shortcomings, most of its citizens are educated, and the Juche nationality has a strong sense of nationality, which is not conducive to goodwill ,......"

After writing down a series of unfavorable factors one after another, and comparing the two times, Chen Moran unexpectedly found that neither 1917 nor 1941 was the best choice, and the two time periods had their own advantages and disadvantages.

The greatest benefit of the former is that the other side does not have a complete resistance force and the low level of national education, which allows China to easily occupy the country and influence the vast majority of the population to "accept" the new empire through education. The advantage of the latter is that there is a large number of opposition forces in the country, and that seemingly powerful country can be disintegrated from within, after all, the empire has an original sin that cannot be washed away from the beginning. …,

"Did it all start with Stalin?"

Suddenly, such a thought popped up in Chen Moran's mind.

"Nope! By no means, maybe ......"

Suddenly, a time flashed through Chen Moran's mind, what if it was after the success of his revolution? For Umilyanov, who believed in the main force of violence, he was well aware that there were a large number of people who opposed the revolution in "his country", otherwise there would not have been the famous "Cheka", the subsequent gulags, the purges of the magnates, intellectuals, kulaks, those purges were bloody, and it can be said that the purges destroyed the old times in Russia to some extent.

"Kill a tenth of the elite in order to consolidate the republic, then destroy the republic, and then ...... in the name of judgment"

Thinking about Chen Moran laughing, through the disclosure of the Soviet Union by later generations, he can be said to have a great understanding of the "scientificity" of the Red Terror, which has always believed in the principle of "it is better to kill 3,000 by mistake than to let go of one", and he also believes in the theory of blood, and believes that in order to consolidate the regime, it is necessary to fundamentally sweep away the "counter-revolution and counter-revolutionary family".

"Perhaps, in the future, we can add fire and oil appropriately!"

Adding fire appropriately may make it even more ...... Well, when this thought flashed, Chen Moran wrote a time period on the paper, and this time period is the time when the war ended, and it was also the time of the first economic crisis after the war, and the appropriate war can stimulate the development of the national economy to a large extent, so that the Chinese economy, with the support of the war, can get rid of the short-term post-war downturn, so as to avoid the post-war crisis of the national economy.

"It seems that this battle cannot be fought!"

Whispering, Chen Moran got up and walked towards the door, if this war must be carried out, then there is one thing that must be arranged in advance, otherwise, in the end, China will just make a wedding dress for others!

But when he left the office, he was still thinking about a question in his heart, is it possible?
