375 Old Fox
The god-like turn of events made Mikoyan's egg extremely painful, he thought that he could take Li Xiaofeng with this, but who would have thought that the mentor and Trotsky would give him a blow in the face, and even these two supreme beings affirmed Plekhanov's contribution to the revolution, what else could he say?
What's even more infuriating is that he also has to apologize to Plekhanov and a certain immortal for admitting his mistakes, which really makes him lose face. Of course, for politicians, pretending to be a grandson is a necessary skill, as long as you can get out, let alone pretending to be a grandson, it doesn't matter if you pretend to be a turtle!
But what made Mikoyan happy was that for some time to come, he would probably have to pretend to be a grandson every day, because the tutor and Trotsky announced that Plekhanov would become a teacher of philosophy at the party school, and that all the students would have to learn philosophical theories from the old man.
Mikoyan was so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall, and he knew this, and he had to provoke a certain immortal before he spoke ill of Plekhanov behind his back. Now it's good, the old man is afraid that he will remember him to death, and I am afraid that he will come to pick him up as soon as he has time, how can this be good!
Compared with Mikoyan's depression, a certain immortal is quite happy, although he does not have a deep relationship with Plekhanov, but he also has a certain understanding of the old man's personality, this old thing is wilted. Don't look at his age and high status, but he doesn't have the slightest sense that the prime minister can support the boat in his belly. Offend him, wait for his revenge!
Sure enough, from the next day, Mikoyan's good days in the party school came to an end, and every time he was in philosophy class, he was bound to be focused on by the old man, and he was frequently named to answer questions, but the terrible thing was that he couldn't answer it, or he didn't answer it correctly enough. The old man would spit on his face. As for the dirty work in the class. Don't think about it. That's all Mikoyan wrapped, it can be said that Mikoyan was abused to the point that life is worse than death.
However, Mikoyan also has an admirable side, knowing that the old man of Lu Dao is deliberately taking revenge on him, and he is deliberately making fun of him, and he would have exploded long ago if he was someone else. But Mikoyan is different, this kid can endure it, even if he is scolded by the old man's nose. He also let it go, his attitude was so good that he didn't want to resist at all.
"See, this is the top political villain." In his spare time, the old man commented on Mikoyan, "A person like this has to be very careful, and he can endure what ordinary people can't bear, which shows that he is quite ambitious." And once such a person is put in power, hum, the revenge is also quite intense! ”
Li Xiaofeng asked with a smile: "Then you still tease him every day." Not afraid of retaliation? ”
Plekhanov sneered: "I'm all the one who stepped into the coffin on one leg, what are I afraid of?" When he comes to power. I'm already a pile of white bones, am I still afraid that he will break his bones and scatter ashes! ”
As he spoke, the old man suddenly smiled: "Anyway, I'm barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, I will scold if I can't get used to it, and I will beat him if I don't scold enough, anyway, he has no way to take me." I took this opportunity to get angry, and if I kicked my legs, I couldn't get angry! ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled, the old man is really not ordinary, just like he said, they are all half-cut people in the ground, what else is terrible, like him, the "old bastard" is naturally privileged, he can say whatever he wants, he can scold whoever he wants, what can you do with him?
Of course, the reason why the old man had trouble with Mikoyan was not so simple, at least not just because Mikoyan said a few excessive words and took revenge. Although the old man does not have the strength to support the boat in his belly, he will not be able to repay it.
"I think you're a drunkard, and you don't mean to drink!" Li Xiaofeng said with a smile.
The old man nodded and said unceremoniously: "Of course the drunkard doesn't mean to drink, I'm old, as for worrying with the younger generation?" What about the villain? And what about bastards? What does it have to do with me? ”
As he spoke, the old man sighed very embarrassedly: "To live to my age, whether I can see it or not, I can see it." The only thing that makes me feel uneasy is a few juniors. ”
Li Xiaofeng finally understood the old man's purpose, for Plekhanov, this is the case in this life, he personally has no worries and concerns, but the old man is really not at ease with those followers.
The situation in Russia was so chaotic, and the relations between the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks were so bad, that the vast majority of the old man's disciples and grandchildren could be said to be so-called counter-revolutionaries, and if they didn't get it right, they would lose their heads.
Although Lenin and Trotsky were unlikely to have gone on a killing spree and bulldozed the Mensheviks while he was there, what about his death? When the lights go out when people die, the old face of him will have no effect when he dies, so the old man has to plan for his juniors.
Li Xiaofeng sighed a little and comforted: "Comrade Lenin will not be so ruthless, for those former comrades, even if they do not agree with the concept, they will not be killed." ”
The old man smiled and said, "Vladimir. Of course Ilyich will not, nor will Trotsky, and it is not them that I am worried about, but I am still assured of their character and integrity. What I'm worried about is that you, the so-called successors, you third-generation revolutionaries don't have the patience of them, you are more utilitarian, you are more impatient, you are simply uncompromising. It's you guys who really worry me! ”
The old man was a little excited, coughed violently, and continued after a while: "You people are all a group of political villains, political robbers and political hooligans in my opinion, you don't pay attention to it at all, you don't leave any room for it, you blindly rejoice in your achievements, and you can't listen to any opinions......
The old man poured out all the words he wanted to say in one go, Li Xiaofeng was a little embarrassed, and in the eyes of the old man, these revolutionary successors and young revolutionary generals were a group of ruffians and robbers. Well, that's really hurtful!
The old man snorted, "I'm picking up nice things to say, and I haven't said anything even more ugly!" ”
Li Xiaofeng touched his nose and said depressedly: "Since none of us young generals can look down on you, what is the point of what you told me just now?" Aren't you afraid that I won't turn my face and not recognize people? ”
The old man smiled again: "I like your straightforward temper, and I'm not afraid to tell you, but if I have a little other way, I won't look for you, let alone sell favors to you." The problem is that I don't have a choice right now. You can only pull out the tallest of the short. You're a little shameless, though. But it's not a loss of conscience, and he confesses it! ”
Li Xiaofeng was a little depressed, and it would not be good for anyone to be pointed at his nose and scolded, but he also had to admit that the old man had a good eye for people, and he was even much more clever than Lenin and Trotsky.
Suddenly, Li Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "You are a favor that sells cheaply, just do me a small favor, but throw a burden on my boss...... To tell you the truth, none of your disciples and grandchildren have anything to take care of! ”
Plekhanov laughed: "Don't be busy refusing either. I asked you to take care of them, not to make you promise anything, let alone make them rich. I just hope that one day, one day, someone is going to trap them to death by despicable means, you can help them out. Just make sure they don't die! ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "Your requirements are not low?" How cruel the struggle is, you still don't know how to do it? And your group of disciples and grandchildren like to participate blindly, all of them have big mouths, and they are shooting at something. It's death! How can I save it? ”
The old man smiled and said, "Don't be busy refusing, I definitely sold you more than that." I said it, as long as you keep them from dying. It doesn't matter if you're in jail, exile or deported! ”
Li Xiaofeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Do you think I seem to have that much ability?" I'm not even a member of the Central Committee now, so aren't you afraid that I will break my word? ”
The old man didn't care at all: "It's okay. I wasn't expecting you to help right now. I'm trying to live as long as I can for two years, and it's not a big problem for Vladimir to live for more than ten years, but I'm worried about what will happen when we're all gone in ten years. That's when you need it! ”
Li Xiaofeng felt that his dignity was very hurt, and the emotional old man felt that he could only be regarded as a character in ten years, and now he just had potential.
"What do you think?" The old man pouted disdainfully, "You're like a clown now, don't look at the dancing joy, but the foundation is not strong." A gust of wind can blow you without a trace...... What's even more annoying is that you still think you're a character, you like to play petty, you like to die, and you still make a revolution like you, hum! ”
The hum behind it will definitely not be a good word, but Li Xiaofeng can't refute the old man, if he wasn't an immortal, I'm afraid he would have been hummed long ago as the old man said.
However, he was still not convinced, and asked rhetorically: "Since you are so unoptimistic about me, why don't you directly ask someone like Mikoyan to entrust the future?" ”
"Lao Tzu can't stand that disgust!" The old man's eyebrows were raised, "And is it reputable to be a good person like him?" Although I'm old, I'm not confused, and I won't beat a dog with meat buns! ”
Li Xiaofeng thought about it, and it seemed that there was no harm in agreeing to the old man, but he still had to ask clearly, what kind of benefits the old man could give him.
"You kid, that's not cute," the old man sighed, "but it's not a bad thing to settle the accounts a little clearly." In this respect, it can be regarded as your strength. I don't have any other abilities for the time being, but I can still help you say a few kind words in front of Lenin! ”
Li Xiaofeng sneered: "Just a little 'benefit' here? ”
Obviously, Li Xiaofeng did not recognize what the benefits were, "You are now a genuine counter-revolutionary. To put it mildly, that is, Comrade Lenin and Comrade Trotsky still respect you a little, without their approval, you will become stinky shit every minute, let alone live in the Kremlin to recuperate, it is estimated that you will not need to be sent to the Moscow Central Prison, and you will be suddenly attacked directly on Red Square. What else is a few kind words for me, Mikoyan's attitude is very representative, do you want to help me, or do you want to trap me? ”
The old man was not angry, but smiled: "Young man, you really don't know much about politics. Why should we care about the attitude of Mikoyan and his ilk, and what is the importance of their attitude? It seems to me that among you Bolsheviks there is only one and a half people whose attitude is noteworthy, one is Vladimir. Ilyich, the other half is Trotsky, and the others, to put it mildly, are a swarm of echo worms, the moon circling the earth. ”
The old man seemed to be very disdainful: "I see that your bureaucracy is worse than in the tsarist days, and it is even funnier that Vladimir. Ilyich is still emphasizing the concentration of power. If he continues to centralize power like this, he will be even more like a tsar than a tsar! ”
Li Xiaofeng stopped talking, and the reason why the bureaucracy in the Soviet era became indiscriminate lies with Lenin. Because of the needs of the revolution. In order to unify the thinking of the whole party. The Mentor had to emphasize one-sidedly the concentration of power, which is undoubtedly unsupervised, and naturally bureaucracy and corruption are inevitable.
By the time Lenin came to his senses and was ready to solve the problem, unfortunately, the mountain of bureaucracy had been completely consolidated, and the interests were firmly in power, and even he, the teacher, could not act rashly. It's even more a pity. As his body deteriorated day by day, it became impossible to even figure it out. From the political will he left before his death, it can be seen how regretful and distressed the mentor was at that time.
Plekhanov was not right at all, the vast majority of party members and cadres in the Bolsheviks of this era were brainless puppets, who would only follow the baton of their superiors, lack the ability to think independently and solve problems, and would only blindly obey.
What's even more terrifying is that the tutor still thinks that this is very good, and thinks that based on the reality of Russia's backwardness, the best way to govern this country is to do so. It is led by a group of elite professional revolutionaries with brains, drawing all kinds of rules and regulations. Then it is handed over to the puppets who have no brains and will only blindly obey to carry it out. It is believed that only in this way can we be like an arm, can we thoroughly implement the will of the central authorities, and can we avoid problems and deviations in the process of implementation.
This model of the state is quite mechanized, and can even smell a hint of the policy of foolishness advocated by Lao Tzu, and to put it mildly, the problems are also quite equal, and the biggest problem comes from those who have brains, who can guarantee that every decision of these elite professional revolutionaries is right?
Wrong? According to the social model formulated by the teacher, there is no error correction function, as long as it is decided by the brain, no matter what is right or wrong, it will be carried out to the end, and the whole society will pay for the mistake in the end.
Of course, such a social model is quite ideal for professional revolutionaries, who can do whatever they want, and it will not be them who are most unlucky anyway. And this is also the reason why Plekhanov said that a certain immortal does not understand politics.
Under this system, the lower level naturally does not need brains, only needs to obey, and what kind of voice they make depends entirely on the ideas of the superiors. To put it bluntly, Lenin and Trotsky thought it was good, and there was a round of applause and cheers, and a lot of criticism and ridicule.
So does Li Xiaofeng need to pay special attention to the voices of the lower classes? Sincerity is not needed, all he needs is to climb as high as possible, the closer to the peak of power, the better, if he has a position similar to Lenin, what he says, he will naturally believe what he believes.
It has to be said that this is also an important reason for the tragedy of the Soviet Union later, when the common people at the bottom are disgusted with paying for the mistakes of the elites, when the elites at the top with long heads are in a mess again, and begin to slap themselves, self-denial, and disarm themselves to maintain power, disintegration and collapse are inevitable.
In other words, Gorbachev has a little brain, can be as strong as his mentor back then, can stabilize his position, and will not be so miserable by Yeltsin.
Of course, it is too far to say this now, for a certain immortal, he only needs to understand that the opinions above are always more important than the opinions below.
In fact, after talking to Plekhanov a few times, he had to admit that many of the old man's judgments were quite accurate, and that Russia was indeed on the verge of destruction, as he said. The only thing the old man did not anticipate was that Lenin and Trotsky were even more capable than he had imagined, and together they were able to pull Russia back from the brink.
It's a pity that 73 years later, Gorbachev is not Lenin, and the ambitious Yeltsin is not Trotsky, and Russia, which is once again standing on the edge of the cliff, was pushed off the cliff by these two heroes and fell to pieces, and the pain caused by it could not be healed for 20, 30 or even half a century.
Just when a certain immortal finally became interested in studying at the Central Party School and felt that he could learn some useful experience, he had to interrupt his studies early because the situation in Finland had suddenly changed!
In late November, the Finnish Provisional Government suddenly announced the dismissal of Count Geertz as commander-in-chief of the White Guards, and Mannerheim, who had been recuperating from illness for several months, returned to his command post, and the Provisional Government issued an order to Mannerheim to recover the territory occupied by foreign interventionists at all costs!
To tell you the truth, this is quite a strange performance, after all, the German government has a fairly good relationship with a certain immortal, and the two sides have basically agreed on the Finnish issue, and there is no reason to suddenly turn around when someone needs help the most.
"According to the information we have received," Xiao Si solemnly explained to a certain immortal, "the German government has recently lost control of the Finnish provisional government. Sven Huvud has been forced to step down! ”
A certain immortal was a little stunned, he had only been studying for a long time, why had the situation in Finland changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked: "Then who is in control of the Finnish regime now?" ”
Xiao Si said: "According to the information we have, the pro-German forces have stepped aside, and the Entente bloc is controlling the country by proxy!" ”
"Who's the agent?"
Xiao Si sighed: "As far as we know, it is very likely to be Mannerheim!" ”
Li Xiaofeng was taken aback, when did Lao Man become so awesome and take over the power quietly, this method is okay! But soon he felt that something was wrong, it was not that simple! (To be continued......)
