What contingencies? The French suddenly offered an olive branch through a secret channel, hoping to work with the Soviets to deal with the growing ambitions of the Germans. This situation is quite unexpected, you must know that before this, France has been conniving with Germany, why did it suddenly turn around?

It's not that the French have suddenly changed their minds, but that the French have always been wary of the Germans. It's just that before Germany was not as aggressive as it was on the table, the level of caution was very low.

And this time, when Hitler had just annexed Austria, he immediately attacked Czechoslovakia. The French couldn't accept it anymore, because Czechoslovakia had always followed them and belonged to the younger brother of France. Now that the younger brother has been bullied into the door, the eldest brother can have face.

Anyway, the French are not very stable, and although they will not have an immediate showdown with Germany, they must take some precautions. For example, secretly communicating with the Soviet Union and reaching a non-binding intention, the French are still willing.

This gave Trotsky the possibility that, in his view, the Germans' approach had finally aroused discontent within the imperialist bloc, even if it was still low, but it was a sufficient expression of a tendency.

Trotsky believed that the Soviet Union could make use of the contradictions within imperialism and at least lay a foundation for cooperation, not to mention dividing them. At this time, Trotsky had a preliminary idea, he believed that he could unite with France and even Britain to contain Germany's ambitions and nip the risk of future world war in the bud.

Lao Tuo thought that if the Soviet Union could do more work. persuaded Britain and France to abandon their previous policy of appeasement. The rest is easy.

But Trotsky did not know that things were not easy at all. When Li Xiaofeng learned of Trotsky's idea through Guò's own intelligence system. He said to Yakov very contemptuously: "Old Tuo, this is death!" ”

Yes, in Li Xiaofeng's view, Trotsky was dead. Whether it was the Anglo-French alliance or the German-Italian-Japanese axis, in his opinion, they were actually the same thing, and they were all uneasy and kind to the Soviet Union, but there were few differences in Cheng Dù.

Britain and France, for example, learned the lessons of World War I intervention in the Russian Revolution and knew that the overthrow of Bolshevik rule could not be achieved overnight. It is also impossible to achieve victory through the means of war of guò chiguoguo. So their idea was to evolve peacefully, to constantly infiltrate and encircle, to lock up the Soviet Union little by little.

And a patient like Hitler took a more direct and untechnical approach, and at first it was a means of war, in an attempt to use force to eliminate Russia, a great problem.

From the perspective of the Soviet Union and Li Xiaofeng, these two groups are not good things, and cooperating with them belongs to seeking the skin of the tiger. For example, the Soviet Union also had contact with Britain and France in history, and at the beginning, these two lions opened their mouths and threw the lion's share of the responsibility and risk to the Soviet Union. It's a bit like sitting on a mountain and watching the tiger fight. This led Stalin to sign a non-aggression pact with Germany.

Based on his own understanding of politics and the experience of later generations, Li Xiaofeng believes. It is not beneficial to get close to Britain and France, and those two goods will definitely not sincerely ally ally with the Soviet Union against Germany, but will wholeheartedly send the disaster to the Soviet Union. Working with them will only give you a white strip in the end!

Li Xiaofeng didn't want to accept the blank slip, so he thought that Stalin's line at this time was actually more reasonable, and only the Red Army could guarantee the security of the Soviet Union, and only by strengthening his own strength was the best way out. And now it will take time to build up, and the Germans will need to encroach on Czechoslovakia and Poland step by step, and if done right, they will be able to fight for at least three years, as they have done historically. Don't underestimate these three years, Li Xiaofeng believes that these three years will be the last three years, and even if the war breaks out as scheduled after three years, the Soviet Union will not be as miserable as it was in history.

Therefore, Li Xiaofeng was in favor of Stalin's line, and it was the king to stabilize the Germans first and step up preparations for war. And being close to Britain and France will not achieve the goal of containing Germany as Trotsky imagined, and will only be sold by those two old scoundrels.

So within the faction, he managed to get through Sverdlov and Ruzutak to get them to support Stalin for the time being. This would not only buy more time, but also maintain relations with the Stalinists for the time being, which would help the General Assembly in 1940.

"Let our men pay close attention to the movements of Trotsky and England and France, and report to me any disturbances!" Li Xiaofeng solemnly instructed Yakov.

Why do you want to do that? Because a certain immortal has something to do to go to Huaxia, not to do private work, but to go out on a business. After entering 1938, with the continuous loss of the country, Nanjing's anti-Japanese enthusiasm faded sharply, and the arguments of surrender emerged one after another. One of the typical examples is Wang Jingwei.

Although from the perspective of the general trend of history, Wang Jingwei's treason and defection to the enemy failed to prevent the Chinese people from winning the victory, but from the perspective of the process, it caused an extremely bad impact, and once led to the overall deterioration of the anti-Japanese war.

As a person who is familiar with the course of history, Li Xiaofeng knows very well that this kind of scum must be eradicated before he shows his true colors and does not cause serious damage. Therefore, the KGB has been secretly monitoring Wang Jingwei's movements. Sure enough, after entering 1938, this person couldn't help it, and the arguments of surrender were thrown out one by one. Even his right-hand man, Zhou Fohai's representative, Mei Siping, began secret negotiations in Hong Kong with Fumiji Konoe's representative, Shigeharu Matsumoto.

After learning the news, Li Xiaofeng couldn't sit still, it was obvious that he had to take the last measure against Wang Jingwei. In June 1938, Li Xiaofeng flew to Chita, rested for two days, and flew directly to Chongqing. There, Lao Jiang prepared a grand welcome ceremony.

There may be comrades who don't understand, isn't Li Xiaofeng just going to solve a national thief? Wouldn't it be enough to guard it directly in Hanoi? And there's no need to go so early, and there's no need for such fanfare, right?

The reason is very simple, the reason why he went so early was because Li Xiaofeng was worried about the butterfly effect. The assassination of Kirov and the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War did not follow the historical timeline. What if something goes wrong this time? Wait for Wang Jingwei to run to Nanjing. With KGB's manpower allocation in Huaxia, it is not so easy to solve him. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Li Xiaofeng decided to go out in person, and if there is an accident, he will solve it himself.

As for the fanfare, that's what the Politburo meant, after all, someone's official reason for going to China this time was to pay a state visit and to discuss aid to China. The Politburo was quite worried about the Kuomintang's movements, in order to keep the Kuomintang afloat. That's why a certain immortal was sent to cheer him up. Of course, by the way, let a certain immortal, an intelligence expert, go to the bottom, once the Kuomintang does not have the ability to continue to drag Japan, then the Soviet government should have made a plan as soon as possible!

However, what Li Xiaofeng did not expect was that before he set off for Chongqing, he attracted great attention from Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, France and the United States. Especially the British, MI6 almost moved when they heard the news, led by Li Erwen, and arrived in Chongqing in advance to prepare to watch a certain immortal at close range.

"Have you figured out someone's schedule?"

Only since the last time he was deflated by a certain immortal, Li Xiaofeng's code name has become someone in Li Erwen's mouth. It can be seen how much resentment this woman has against Li Xiaofeng.

"Arrived in Chongqing on June 15 and had a welcome banquet. Then he met with Lin Sen and Wang Jingwei, and then held talks with Chang Kaishen to discuss military issues. Finally, he expressed his condolences to the Soviet advisory group on China's aid until June 20, when he left Chongqing for Vladivostok for inspection. ”

Learwin frowned, because the family did not pay much attention to someone's visit to China before, in M's opinion, the focus of MI6 in the near future should be on Czechoslovakia, and it should go to Prague and Berlin to conduct intelligence, if you can figure out the bottom line of the Germans, it will be a miracle. Instead of following Li Xiaofeng to the Far East to fool around, there is nothing worth paying attention to in the Far East, the center of the empire is in Europe, and not paying attention to the problems of Europe is not distinguishing between priority and priority.

But Lierwin believes that the problems of Czechoslovakia have nothing to pay attention to at all, anyway, the cabinet is ready to sell the Czechs, in that case, what else to pay attention to? Concerned about how the Czechs were sold?

Anyway, Li Erwen has no interest in this, and in her opinion, it is not normal for someone to suddenly go to China at a time when the whole world is paying attention to the Sudetenland. And there must be a big secret behind this abnormality, based on his understanding of Li Xiaofeng, she thinks that something big will happen in the Far East!

I have to say that it is often your enemies who know you best. Li Erwen can see through Li Xiaofeng, but it's just to see through, who makes this kind of seeing through is of little use, MI6 is still led by the Germans, and it can't keep up with the rhythm at all!

"Be sure to find out what someone's true intentions are!" Learvin gave the order.

However, Charles, the head of MI6's Far East station, was speechless about her orders, one was that he didn't like Learvin to give orders, as a traditional Englishman, although he had a gentlemanly demeanor, but this demeanor was limited to those weak women. For a very strong female superior like Li Erwen, he is very unhappy.

In particular, it has been decided that the focus of the near future will be on Czechoslovakia, not on the Far East, and he believes that Learvin is deliberately disobeying the orders of his superiors, that is, he is tossing around. And an Englishman like him, who is very bureaucratic and traditional, is the most rigid and hates unruliness.

So Charles was very resistant to Learwin's order, and if he could, he really wanted to kick Learvin out. Unfortunately, this was impossible, and he could only pinch his nose and accept Learwin's assignment. Of course, based on his dissatisfaction and his rebellious mentality, it is very difficult to say whether this person will carry out Learwin's orders without discount.

In fact, Learvine himself knew this, that the British Empire was dying, and that it was only the last bit of sunset before sunset. One by one, the bureaucrats of this vast empire have become people in a suit, who only know how to follow the rules, and have no creative sex and passion at all.

Think about how the Reich dealt with the challenges of Napoleon and France more than a hundred years ago, and now, facing a much weaker adversary, Nazi Germany, the Reich is frightened by a psychopath. It's ridiculous to say!

Sometimes, Li Xiaofeng was very envious of those Russian counterparts, and it was undeniable that the overall strength of the Soviet Union did lag behind the empire, and its system also had quite a lot of problems, and the Soviet bureaucracy was also very useless. But one thing is undeniable, in that country of centralization. It can better implement the will of the chief. For those who are talented and driven. It's easier to bring out what you're capable of.

For example, the opponent who has always made her gnash her teeth, to be honest, sometimes Learwin envies someone's work environment. As long as the order is issued, the people below will never dare to perfunctory, even if the ability is limited, it is the input of the previous servants. Compared with these guys in the empire who are full of official words and are unwilling to admit even the slightest responsibility, the stupid and diligent subordinates are more likeable. Especially since the power of life and death of these fools is completely in your personal hands, as long as they make mistakes. You can punish them without any scruples. This kind of treatment is really the envy of Learvin.

In contrast, these wastes of the empire can't be beaten or scolded, and if they are a little dissatisfied, they will report and complain, and in the face of these delicate subordinates, Li Erwen can only look up to the sky and sigh.

"Contact the Soviet embassy in China, and say that we are Times reporters and want to make an appointment to interview that bastard!"

Learwin's instructions surprised his subordinates, what is the use of interviews? Can people openly say the purpose of the future of China?

Just when Li Erwen's subordinates felt that their boss was a little inexplicable, Li Erwen released another sentence: "Hmm." Contact The Times and get me a journalist! ”

As soon as these words came out. Li Erwen's subordinates were even more dumbfounded, feeling that this boss was ready to go out in person? The problem is, this is not necessary, but it also exposes MI6's concern for someone, isn't it nonsense!

"What do you know?" Learwin snorted coldly, "You think the KGB doesn't know I'm coming?!" ”

Yes, Li Erwen can guarantee that with the vast supernatural powers of the KGB, coupled with the cooperation of the CCP, it is easier for them to engage in intelligence in China than MI6. And judging from all these dealings she had with someone, it seemed that he had a way to keep track of her whereabouts, and he couldn't hide it at all. It's better to get straight to the bottom and go straight to the bottom!

"This confidante of yours is a bit of a level!" Yakov smiled and said to Li Xiaofeng, "How are you going to fool her this time?" ”

Yakov also understood the grievances between Li Erwen and Li Xiaofeng, and to be honest, he was both surprised and strange that someone's domineering did not directly solve the woman, but played hide and seek with him for nearly twenty years, which really did not fit someone's temper.

"It's hard to find an opponent!" Someone pretended to sigh with emotion, anyway, everyone wants to step on that cheap look.

Yakov did not answer, because he simply believed in this excuse, and someone has always been a person with a very clear purpose, so to speak, it is not profitable to be early. The reason why I have been wasting time on Learwin is probably because of some ulterior motive. It's just that after following someone for so many years, he has never discovered this final mystery.

Of course, someone is full of secrets, anyway, Yakov has been with someone for so long, and he has always been a little unable to see through someone, you say that he is a despicable political opportunist who does not hesitate to do good deeds. But you say he's a good guy, a killer who always kills unrelated strangers. For example, a few days ago, he ordered the Patriarch's people to kill a guy named Khrushchev, as far as Yakov knows, that thing has no hatred with Li Xiaofeng at all, even if that person is from the Stalinist family, but he has never offended you, and this thing is not even a member of the Central Committee, which onion is this? There are so many people on Stalin's side that it is worth paying attention to, and it is not anyone's turn to kill him, right?

To tell the truth, the death of this product once made the Soviet political arena, which was already a fierce struggle, almost have another major earthquake. Stalin was said to be angry and stubbornly believed that Khrushchev did not die by accident, but a deliberate murder, and a political murder of a very bad nature. The insistence that the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the KGB must find out the real culprit once made the relationship between Li Xiaofeng and Stalin very tense.

At that time, Yakov felt that there was something wrong with Li Xiaofeng, and Khrushchev was nothing at all? You just really don't like this person, and you can't do it at this time. So why did Li Xiaofeng do this?

Objectively speaking, Khrushchev really did not offend Li Xiaofeng, not that the goods did not dare, but there was not much chance, the status difference between the two was too far, and Li Xiaofeng could scare the goods half to death if he said it politely. So why did Li Xiaofeng solve this goods?

It's very simple, there are three reasons, the first is that Li Xiaofeng has always disliked Khrushchev, and the character of this product is really problematic. What Stalin did after his death was too inauthentic, even if Stalin was bad, he always had the grace of knowing you Khrushchev. When people are not dead, you kneel and lick like a quail, but as soon as you get angry, you turn your face and don't recognize people, and if you don't hear it, you are a white-eyed wolf!

Second, Stalin did make mistakes, and the mistakes were not small. But how much cleaner can you Khrushchev be? When you climbed up, did you do less bad things according to the orders of steel? Oh, when you come to power, you put all the blame on Stalin and pretend to be a saint. What the hell!

Thirdly, it is okay to criticize Stalin, but the way you do it is not right, and to completely deny Stalin is to negate all the achievements of the Communist Party of China from the mid-twenties to the fifties. It has caused ideological confusion in the party, and to put it mildly, you are digging your own grave. This gave Yeltsin and his ilk the theoretical basis for the collapse of the Communist Party (CPP).

What's more, your belittlement of Stalin is entirely for the purpose of elevating yourself and consolidating your political position, and this kind of behavior can only be described in four words - despicable! Shameless! (To be continued......)
