Gandhi who died in despair
Broken Indian plates
In 1953, a man died in India, and his name was Gandhi. Full name, Mohandas. Karamchand. Gandhi, also known as Mahatma Gandhi, was the leader of the Indian National Liberation Movement and the leader of the Indian National Congress Party.
Compared to the historical assassination of him in 1948 after India's independence by some crazy religious element, he was lucky to escape that assassination and finally "died a good death".
However, if fate had a choice, Gandhi would have chosen the "real" history of his assassination, rather than the history that had been changed beyond recognition by the traversers.
Because until Gandhi died in his hospital bed (crab) due to old age, he did not see any hope of India's independent self-government, but died with panic and melancholy about the future fate of India.
"I'm very unwilling that India has been divided, and it has been divided into many pieces."
This was Gandhi's unwilling whisper before he died.
He did not see India break away from British rule, but he saw the division of India and the establishment of a predominantly Sikh "state of Khalistan" in Punjab and South Kashmir -- this was the "greatest achievement" he had achieved in these years for the independence of the Indians.
Of course, Gandhi himself would rather die a hundred times than see this "fruit".
Before his death, Gandhi could not forget the scene when he visited the People's Republic of China in 1949 and met the second leader of the People's Republic of China. At that time, he thought that with the change of people on the side of New China, his attitude towards the Indian independence movement would change.
However, after Gandhi settled in Beijing, the newspapers in this country began to spread the history of "India" and "since ancient times" as a "geographical term". Although Gandhi was an Indian and could not read Chinese characters, some of his subordinates could understand it, and the attitude of the Chinese side on this matter can be imagined.
In later years. The British are under increasing political pressure to "oppose colonialism" in the international community, and the Soviets in the north of India have not been less eye-catching to the British, and have been secretly agitating for independence of the Sikhs near Kashmir and the Punjab.
At this time, the Chinese side also shouted: "New China supports the people of all ethnic groups in India in their struggle for the right to independence and self-determination." slogan. The Soviets wanted to leave Gandhi a relatively intact India so that they could put pressure on China, but the Chinese side infiltrated private goods while clamoring for support for the Indian independence movement.
And the British are seeing the situation in the Punjab becoming more and more unstable. In 1951, the Sikhs in the colonial army were becoming more and more dishonest, and in 1951 they decisively carried out the operation of "gecko tail cutting", which directly loosened the ties of the most jubilant Sikhs and "generously" allowed them to "become independent and self-governing".
The Sikhs were the most combat-ready unit in the Indian army, with the exception of the Gurkhas, who were the least numerous. The number of Sikhs in the Indian colonial army was as high as 20 percent. As soon as the Sikhs were gone, the remaining Indian colonial army composed of Indians or Muslims became the scum of war.
The Sikhs were very grateful for the "loosening" of the British suzerain, who had deliberately allocated some Hindus-dominated territory to the Sikhs when they were founded. Fulfill their "desire for independence". Of course, this is unsettling and well-intentioned.
After letting go of the Sikhs and easing the pressure within India, the British immediately changed their faces and began to suppress other forces in India that wanted to engage in "Indian independence".
By 1951, the British maintained their control in India, relying mainly on the army, with the exception of a small number of native troops. Another important main force is the "untouchables" and "Shudras" composed of so-called "honorary Bretanians".
These are troops made up of low castes and untouchables. They were very grateful to the British, and Gandhi's gang advocated Indian independence, and they could not find a market anywhere. Gandhi even heard rumors that the British had even privately promised the new upper echelons of these "honorary Brittanans" that they would gradually hand over ten southern Indian states to these untouchable-born people over the next decade.
Other words. The British were changing the "class structure" of southern India.
And the British are not talking in empty words.
Beginning in 1944, the British began to implement the "honorable Brittanians" system in West Bengal, and in addition to using an empty title to "remove the hat" from these lowly and low castes, they also established special schools. Recruit young children from among these untouchables and lower castes and train intellectuals.
At the time, the British spoke very high-pitched.
"Knowledge changes destiny."
"Honorable Bretanians must possess sufficient knowledge in order to be truly earthly and human."
Nine years, from 1944 to 1953, was enough time for the British to raise a generation of intellectuals from the "honorable Bletaninians" and then replace the increasingly restless "high caste" of India.
There is a saying in China that those chairs on the upper floor, moving one of them will kill people.
It is true that many in the upper echelons of India were aware of the backwardness of the caste system and insisted on its abolition, and even after 1950, it became the "accepted" doctrine of the entire intellectual class in India.
However, the "romanticism," hypocrisy, and anti-(crab) dynamism of the intellectuals, the "petty-bourgeois Bolshe-Joyas," are precisely reflected in their "words" and "deeds," and in the change in their own stance after the change has harmed their interests.
Clamming out against the caste system satisfies the moral superiority of the class.
But when the caste system is abolished, and it is abolished "really", to the detriment of their interests, the vast majority of those who suffer from these interests tend to change their position and jump to the other end at the first time, like rats burned to the tail.
Artoria, who inherited the dark understanding of human beings in Lin Han's mind, knew very well what the petty bourgeoisie of the Indian intellectuals was - in fact, the petty bourgeoisie was the same in all countries.
As a result, she proposed a "pilot" in India to abolish the caste system "in a real way".
The first to start the experiment was still West Bengal, which had the best foundation. Here, in 1951, the British dismissed a large number of "Indian high-caste civil servants" who were "not adamant" and replaced them with "honorary Bretanians" of their own training.
The loss of jobs and the unemployment crisis suddenly shut up these little newcomers who oppose the caste system in India. Many were previously standing in the streets. Indians, waving the banner of "opposing the caste system," recognized their "class" attributes for the first time, and then learned to "stand on their own class interests" and speak "truthfully."
Through Artoria, the British also learned to play with the weapon of "class struggle", skillfully covering up the contradictions between the colonial countries and the suzerain.
A large number of former untouchables, "honorary Brittanans" from lower castes replaced the "high castes" in many important positions in India's official institutions, which immediately caused the entire Indian upper echelons to explode.
The British did this very beautifully, and in the international arena they responded to the accusations of China and the Soviet Union. is even more unceremoniously used the reaction of India's high castes to refute the two Chinese and Soviet morals:
At that time, at the Eurasian Joint Council discussion meeting on the Indian question, the British representative asked China and the Soviet Union so angrily:
"What the British Empire is doing in India is a real revolution that is breaking down the criminal caste system that India has maintained for two millennia. If the British Empire abandons India now, then who will continue the revolution? Did Gandhi's gang, having lost a little of their own interests, turn from an anti-caste faction into a pro-caste petty bourgeois romantic? ”
This is the first time that a person in the socialist camp has been pointed at by a spokesman for capitalism on a "revolutionary topic". The representative of the USSR at that time, in an impulsive manner, retorted:
"Certainly not the SPD-style opportunists of the Congress. And the parties that are really rooted in the lower echelons of India. ”
The British delegate nodded in agreement: "Do you mean the Indian Communist Party? If they were able to do what the Ratani guerrillas did, the British Empire did believe that they could truly abolish the caste system in India. ”
Joint Eurasian meeting. Britain and China and the Soviet Union were all talking about it, but when the content of the mouth cannon reached India, it frightened the old upper echelons of India.
The kind of "honorary Bretanians" of low-caste and untouchable origin, who are just robbing them of their jobs and status, the CPI? Is it the PKI of the Ratani guerrillas? This group is going to rob them of everything, including their lives. Even if they were cattle and horses for the British for a hundred years, the old Indian upper class did not want to see themselves fall into the hands of the "Ratani bandits".
By threatening to hand over India to the PKI. and the use of the "Honorable Bretons" to divide the old upper echelons of India, and the British stabilized their crumbling colonial rule in India.
The hapless Gandhi certainly saw the sinister intentions of the British, but what good could he do in the face of such a situation.
The biggest difference between India and New China is that the group of people who built New China. Many of them were also rich peasants, petty landlords, and petty bourgeoisie, and their families were very good, but in the revolutionary years, they all had the courage to "betray" their own class, break with their own class, and reform their own lives first, and then the lives of others.
Therefore, in addition to the different historical backgrounds and cultural atmospheres of the two countries, another reason is that in the nearly 100 years before the founding of New China, China has been constantly "entangled and struggling" in endless oppression and struggle. The reason why Marxism-Leninism and socialism succeeded in China was the "last" choice of countless ancestors after all attempts failed.
A sapling can only grow into a towering tree when it is exposed to wind and sun, frozen and snowy. The Chinese revolution was able to succeed in the end, and before it succeeded, it had already gone through countless painful and tortured tests, and a group of elites were forged with blood and fire. Although Lin Han cheated on this plane and there was a lot less calcination, before Lin Han appeared, he suffered many times more than the so-called "elites" in India who were advocating for "Indian independence."
Lying on the hospital bed (crab) and swallowing his last breath little by little, Gandhi couldn't help but recall his past visit to China, where he met the legendary "Oriental God" Lin Han, and what Lin Han said about him and his Congress party.
"The biggest failure and mistake of you and your Congress Party is the 'non-violent non-cooperation' campaign you have launched. ”
"How are outstanding cadres, strong-willed revolutionaries, or unrelenting Indian independence elements trained? It is not an advertisement in a newspaper, an article written, and a mouth cannon can be blown out, but a big wave of sand, after a fierce and brutal struggle, with the enemy's butcher's knife as a filter, and those who are not strong-willed, eliminated! Petty-bourgeois romantics, eliminate! Those who are incapable will be eliminated! Even those who are not "lucky" will be eliminated! ”
"The grassroots organizations on the side of New China were finally born on countless corpses through this kind of elimination and elimination at the cost of the lives of countless revolutionaries. Have you experienced this repeated elimination at the cost of the lives of countless revolutionaries? Can't even bear the "pain" of a few honorable Bretanians robbing you of your jobs, and hand India over to an organization like yours to start a revolution? Well, a "reform" in the hope that you will be able to smash the caste system in India? I might as well believe in the bayonets of the British, more likely. ”
At that time, Lin Han was so bitter and mean to Gandhi. At that time, Gandhi was almost 80 years old, and he was about to die, where could he compare with Lin Han's sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and Lin Han's caustic words shattered the belief in "non-violent non-cooperation" that he had adhered to all his life, and Gandhi's spirit collapsed.
After losing this breath, Gandhi fell ill soon after returning home, and Lord Shiva had sent a summoning to him. Lin Han's unceremonious accusation against Gandhi at the time was later criticized by the organization and forced to do another review. But when he thought that he could "knock down Gandhi with his tongue", his heart was simply crooked, and as for the review or something, this guy's skin was as thick as a city wall. During the review, he criticized himself as worthless, but he was resolute in his heart, and he was still thinking about when he would find an opportunity to arrest the old guy Gandhi again and lose it again. Regarding his virtue, Li Runshi's main (crab) seat has long been clear, but he is helpless.
Gandhi finally died in despair in August 1953. After his death, Nehru took over the stall left behind by Gandhi and continued to fight against the British. It was only at this time that the internal members of the Indian National Congress Party were also vacillating on the issue of discourse for the sake of their own personal jobs and interests, which caused a great split, and Nehru spent a lot of energy to unify the opinions of these people.
