Chapter 719: Haojie is not lucky, he has his own bearing
At this point, what is the use of Trotsky knowing that he is hypocritical?! With a gloomy face, he took the agreement with Ribbentrop, and signed his name on it with a trembling voice.
Ribbentrop smiled after Trotsky had signed it, and signed his name as well. Then he said to Trotsky and others: "Then, in a month I will send someone to take over the oil fields and mines." Rest assured, we'll deliver your weapons. ”
With these words, Ribbentrop left the distracted Trotsky and the others happily out of the hotel.
Ribbentrop knew that he had done a great deal this time! Germany's biggest weakness at present is its resources, rare metals, steel raw materials and oil!
One of the most important is oil, and now Germany's largest Chapter 719 Haojie is not lucky, and its own gas oil source is the Ploiesti oil field in Romania. This was followed by oil procured from the three eastern provinces.
But oil crosses the ocean, and the cost and volume of transportation are minimal. At the same time, Germany considered that its own navy was not strong, and it would definitely be intercepted by the naval powers Britain and France in wartime.
Therefore, the three eastern provinces are not regarded as the only source of oil. Rare metals and steel are even worse, almost all of them are sourced from Sweden, France and the three eastern provinces.
Ukraine had already been carved up in World War I, and most of it was incorporated into the Soviet Union in the form of a franchise. And most of the oil fields and mines that appeared in the negotiations were there!
Now that Germany has reasonably annexed Austria, Czechoslovakia is not far ahead of the partitioned Ukraine. There are abundant resources, including rare metals, steel and oil, which are scarce in Germany!
Nikopol in central Ukraine has the second largest manganese mine in the world, and there are also rich iron ore reserves nearby! All of this was coveted by Germany, and Ribbentrop would undoubtedly give Hitler a few eyes to be able to reach this agreement. At the same time, his position will be even more important!
And at this time, the constant movements of Germany also attracted the attention of a person. He asked people to come to Germany with his own handwritten letter in Chapter 719 of Haojie, not by luck, and with his own bearing, to seek cooperation. His goal was to occupy Czechoslovakia and Romania in which the inhabitants of his kingdom lived.
On October 30, Marshal Blyukhel, the representative of Stalin in the Soviet Union, issued a joint proclamation on behalf of the Soviet Union and the three eastern provinces, in which Blyukhel claimed that "in order to fulfill the last wishes of Comrade Lenin." It was to transfer to the three eastern provinces all the territories totaling more than 1 million square kilometers, including Sakhalin Island, which had been invaded by Tsarist Russia in those years, and the two sides re-demarcated the border and coexisted peacefully. ”
In fact, Blyukhel said in the communiqué: "This is the greatest difference between the Soviets and capitalism, imperialism and colonialism." Our struggle is for the well-being of all mankind, for fairness and justice! During his lifetime, Comrade Lenin declared on more than one occasion in public that he wanted to annul all the unequal treaties imposed on the Chinese people by Tsarist Russia......"
Always. The communiqué declares! It sounds good to say, and Lenin did say such things in public and in some circulars.
Trotsky, though he had been informed a long time ago, was still furious when he saw these telegrams in plain text! Yes, Lenin did say these things, but it was only because of the blockade of capitalism at the time that he made them high-profile.
But the second Potsdam Proclamation cancelled these terms in their entirety, and Lenin did not mention them again. Even privately Comrade Lenin said: Vladivostok is ours! No one will give!
But this is fine in private, and to single it out would be contrary to Trotsky's own theory of "permanent revolution". At the same time, it seriously violated the ideals of the so-called "Comintern".
There are many things that can be done or even done explicitly, but they must not be said. It's good to lie to other people about "the well-being of all mankind" or something like that, but if you believe it yourself, you're a fool!
Trotsky and others knew what Stalin wanted, but they couldn't find Stalin's reason on the surface! But if you are silent about this matter, it seems as if you have no right to speak.
This made Trotsky and others so anxious that they were exhausted. However, they really can't be blamed for this, and if their political skills can reach the level of Stalin, they will only be knocked out of power by Stalin one after another.
If Stalin were in their position, there would be no doubt that the first thing would be to unite his authority or to purge dissenting voices. What to do next. It is to put the opponent to death directly!
Since the transaction has already been made, it is useless to say anything. What to do is useful, if it is Stalin's position in Trotsky's position, then he will not hesitate to launch a strong attack!
Mobilization is better done. Directly "xxx reactionaries betrayed the interests of the Soviets!" With the kindness of Comrade Lenin, he went to exchanging arms with a warlord, a dictator reactionary, a lackey of the capitalists to massacre the people of the Soviets! It's shameful! This is despicable! He will be a sinner of the Soviets! Let us destroy him on behalf of the Soviets, on behalf of the Soviet people! ”
Then it is to take advantage of the existing equipment and constantly charge all kinds of Ulla! Even if there is no way to defeat the opponent for the time being, he will strive to consume the opponent's strength to the greatest extent and not let all the weapons he trades to form an absolute superior force to destroy himself.
It is a pity that Trotsky was not a decisive man like Stalin. In constant hesitation, he missed his chance. No matter ancient or modern, many people do not understand a truth: there is no accident for successful people.
Indeed, there is a certain element of luck in their success. But it's all about luck, and in the end the damn ones have to die. Pattern, mind, character and knowledge are the real benchmarks that determine the size of a person's achievements.
Even if Trotsky was given 10,000 chances. He couldn't get Stalin either. The reason is very simple, he does not have Stalin's political skills, he does not have Stalin's decisiveness.
Stalin did have many shortcomings, but his great political skill and determination alone were enough to make him a success.
In fact, looking back at Chang Shen Kaigong, there is no shortage of decisive means. There is also no shortage of political skill, but it is a pity that he is not as good as Stalin in terms of heart and political structure.
Seriously entrenched comprador mentality. and the composition of the political system under his command determined that he would not be Stalin's thinking eyes that knew how to use various resources to constantly deepen his industrial base and research and development level.
In fact, looking back at the history of that era, you will wonder why Chang Shenkai and some of the generals under his command are so afraid of foreign adults?!
Whether it is an Oriental or a Westerner, it seems that as long as it is a foreigner, Nanjing will always be reasonable and three points shorter. This is in stark contrast to the later Yang Ziren and others.
Yang Ziren and others seem to be not afraid of anything, not afraid of the Japanese, not afraid of the Americans, and even not afraid of the Soviets. Or to put it more directly: among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, Yang Ziren and others have all beaten once. And none of them were defeated!
More than a dozen countries hated to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and France faded in Vietnam. The British Purple Quartz, which was hit by mountain cannons, the cry on Zhenbao Island, and Chang Shenkai, who finally died on the island. It seems that Yang Ziren and his colleagues are afraid of this at any time.
If this is arrogant, but it can be seen that these countries that seem to be so much stronger than Yang Ziren and others have finally chosen to retreat in the duel, so you can see that they did not take advantage.
Looking at the words expressed by the two when they dealt with strong enemies at different times, we may be able to see some different clues between the two.
"Peace has not reached a time of despair, we will never give up peace, sacrifice will not be at the last moment, and we will never sacrifice lightly." This is Jiang Zhongzheng's speech at the Fifth National Congress of the Nanjing State Government in November 1935.
"I don't think we should make a decision on how long the time will be fought, it will be Truman in the past, Eisenhower in the future, or the future president of the United States, it will be up to them to decide, we will fight as long as they want, until complete victory!!"
This is Yang Ziren's speech during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, simple, direct and clear! The different temperaments and patterns of the two people, and even their minds, determined that one of these two people could sign the cease-fire negotiations that did not win for the first time in Peiping.
The other can only be to stay on the island for the rest of his life, and make a little comfort by constantly organizing various counteroffensive plans that he in fact knows is impossible, and then finally disappears.
Chang Shenkai may not have let the British look down on him in his life. But the British, who had been stranded by a cannon fire from Yang Ziren, seemed to realize something, and in January 1950 they became the first Western country to recognize the country created by Yang Ziren and his comrades-in-arms.
If you look back at Yang Ziren and Stalin, you will be struck to find that one of the great things these two men have in common is their constant search for self-reliance. Stalin's contribution to the heavy industry of the Soviet Union was indelible, and the same Yang Ziren contributed to the country's efforts to build an industrial base.
Back in 1937, when the agreement signed by Stalin was obtained, Tu Qianjun smiled and asked the Wehrmacht troops in Mongolia to transport all the weapons over.
Almost all of these fighters have been used by the Wehrmacht for some time. Originally, I wanted to use it for modification, but now that I can do it, it is naturally the best. Several aircraft are working overtime to produce new fighters.
The production of 300 units a month is enough to replace the old Tiger Shark.
"Xiaochen, don't follow me after a while!" Tu Qianjun turned his head and smiled at Liu Yunjiao behind him, and Liu Yunjiao couldn't help but be anxious when he heard this! With red eyes, he looked at Tu Qianjun and said, "Commander! You don't want me anymore?! I...... What am I doing wrong?! You say, I'll change! Can't I change it?! Don't drive me away......"
Seeing Liu Yunjiao's anxious appearance, Tu Qianjun laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "What do you want?!" What are you doing with me?! Go to the military academy to learn things, and then go to the battlefield to experience this is serious! I've already arranged it for you, and tomorrow you'll go to the National Defense University! ”rq!!!
