618 time is running out

This is not the first time that Yevgeny has heard Li Xiaofeng emphasize paying attention to Nasser and Sadat, and he has already reminded Leyi to do this, and the meaning of this reminder is very clear, that is, Nasser and Sadat are very important, much more important than Najib.

Although Yevgeny still wondered why these two little-known people were so important, he did not mean to disobey the yin. What kind of people do superiors hate the most? I hate the kind of people who don't take their words to heart, and they have warned you over and over again, and you still make mistakes, so what's the use of you?

Yevgeny knew very well that it was one thing for you to disagree with the leader, and quite another for not to do what the leader told you to do. You can reserve your opinion, but you must do the work assigned by the leader, otherwise it will be your dereliction of duty.

Yevgeny did not want to be derelict in his duties, so his usual style was to do his job well so that the leader had no thorns to pick. According to Li Xiaofeng's instructions, he worked hard to get close to Nasser and Sadat, although he didn't mix and wear a pair of pants, but he was a little friendly.

"Hold on, Evgeny. You'll know in a few years how valuable this is! Li Xiaofeng said to Yevgeny with a smile.

Yevgeny listened to this, and after returning to Egypt, he tried to deepen his relationship with Nasser and Sadat. And as the two sides got to know each other better, Yevgeny gradually understood why his uncle paid more attention to Nasser and Sadat. Compared with Najib, these two men may not have such a great academic background and have not studied law and social economics, but they have a better grasp of Egyptian society than Najib.

Najib was so idealistic that he thought he could reason with the British, and as long as he got rid of the insatiable Farouk I, Egypt would have a bright future. Nasser and Sadat believed that the root cause of Egypt's problems was not Farouk I, but a group of vested interests led by Farouk I who defected to the British to enslave the Egyptian people. The removal of a Farouk I was only a British puppet, and the real victory and liberation of Egypt had to fight against British imperialism. The British must also be fucked off.

This is the difference between Najib and Nasser, who is a limited reformer, and Sadat, who is more of a revolutionary. These two groups of people cannot be completely identical, and when the contradiction reaches a certain level, the relationship between the two sides will break down.

In fact, relations between Najib and Nasser and Sadat are already strained right now. As mentioned earlier, Britain is looking for trouble with Najib and trying to persuade Najib to admit his mistake and pull back a game. But they were wrong, how could Najib compromise? He sternly rejected the demands of the British, and even confronted Farouk I in a confrontation that led to a major outbreak of conflict. Soon the somewhat idealistic general was put in prison, and an unfair trial awaited him.

After Najib's arrest, Attlee breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he caught the culprit, the tide would gradually subside, and as long as he survived the period.

But Attlee was too naΓ―ve to let the United States, which had been following Egypt's developments, easily let him pass, and almost on the day Najib was arrested and imprisoned, the major newspapers in the United States carried the news in the most conspicuous headlines. In American newspaper reports, Najib was portrayed as an out-and-out hero, while the British and Farouk I were turned into insatiable dragons. Anyway, that kind of tendencies can be smelled from five miles away.

Note that the United States today is not the United States before World War II, the center of the world before World War II was in Europe, but after World War II, when the United States became the savior of Europe, the whole world will look at the face of the Americans. So once the American public opinion starts to break the news, the whole world will follow suit, so for a whole week, major newspapers in European countries have been reporting on Najib's story one after another, and Britain's international image is not as good as day by day!

Attlee, who originally thought that everything would disappear, was dumbfounded, and he realized that the current trend was even more terrifying than before, if the previous storm could only make him anxious, but now this trend can completely tear it to pieces!

The backbenchers of the Conservative Party were frantically attacking Attlee, and British public opinion was also led by the Americans to turn around, and began to question Attlee's actions, and the kickback turmoil did not subside, and was turned over again, until Attlee could no longer control the situation, and then it collapsed completely.

The first to be implicated was the Minister of Defense, because he was the first to be implicated in this large-scale arms trade. Soon piles of bad debts were unraveled, and there was a wealth of evidence of serious corruption in the arms trade with Egypt. Immediately, the Minister of Defense had to announce his resignation.

And that's not all, after the end of the defense secretary, the foreign secretary was also involved, followed by the secretary of commerce and the minister of finance, because there was serious corruption not only in the arms trade with Egypt, but also with the arms trade in other Arab countries. The ministers took the benefits in a different way, and the total amount reached an unprecedented 10 million pounds!

Overnight, almost half of the ministers in Attlee's cabinet were forced to step down and submit to scrutiny or resign. The poor Prime Minister has almost become a loner. Although Attlee tried his best to clear himself, the British people were not pigs, and they all thought that Attlee had disappointed them, and the support of the Labor Party fell all the way to the freezing point.

At this time, excited Conservative MPs began to fall into the trap and were even ready to raise a motion of no confidence in Attlee. In this extremely embarrassing situation, Attlee had to start saving himself. He first released the captured Najib and then pressured Farouk I to abdicate immediately.

Yes, Attlee had no choice but to abandon the chariot and let Farouk I abdicate in order to appease the anger of Egypt and world opinion, and thus to maintain British rule in Egypt. So is this a good solution?

For Nasser and Sadat, this is a change of soup and not a change of medicine, as long as Muhammad . If the Ali dynasty continued, Egypt would remain enslaved by the British. What Egypt needs now is not one or two scapegoats, but a complete end to this. So they're not happy with that.

But there is one person who thinks it is acceptable, Najib believes that the resignation of Farouk I means a phased victory, and it is not appropriate to push the British too quickly, but should take it slowly, step by step! Therefore, he thought that it was acceptable for Farouk I to get out of the way, and he was willing to cooperate with the British.

In this way, the contradictions between Najib and Nasser and Sadat became prominent, so that Najib and Nasser, who had just been released from prison, broke up unhappily after an exchange, and such an outcome was what the British wanted to see the most.

If Najib and others are completely single-minded and clearly want to overthrow British rule, then Britain has no way but to use strong means. And now there is a problem within the Egyptians, and if the British Empire does not take advantage of it, it will really live to be a dog for hundreds of years.

The British immediately began to make in-depth contacts with Najib, ready to draw this not so "firm" guy to their side. As far as Britain is concerned, as long as the interests of the Suez Canal can be guaranteed and Britain is allowed to station troops in Egypt, all other conditions are easy to negotiate, anyway, it is a puppet regime, and whoever will be the puppet is not the same?

Although Najib is not as obedient and stupid as Farouk I, he is still a nationalist at heart, but as long as nationalism does not interfere with Britain's vested interests, it does not matter.

The British soon made their suggestion that Farouk I abdicate, and given that Farouk I had no heirs for the time being, it was temporarily replaced by Muhammad. Abdul. Prince Munam was regent, and when Farouk I gave birth to an heir to the throne, the heir succeeded to the throne of Egypt.

Najib was acceptable in principle, but he also had political conditions, that is, the change of the government of the Egyptian kingdom to a constitutional monarchy, the immediate enactment of a new constitution that would guarantee the Egyptian people, and the reduction and gradual disappearance of British ministers in the new cabinet.

It can be seen that Najib is still trying to carry out gradual political reforms, and he is ready to slowly erase the traces of Britain in Egypt bit by bit, rather than solving the problem in one step. Truth be told, this is a big disappointment!

No joke, it is indeed a great disappointment, since the end of the First World War, the Egyptians have constantly pursued this path of national independence and liberation. Until World War II, this road was not followed, and Britain still enjoyed various privileges in Egypt and monopolized the Suez Canal. This made the Egyptians indignant, and with the end of World War II, with the gradual weakening of the British Empire, Egyptian people of insight saw the hope of success, especially this kickback turmoil, which allowed them to see the complete solution of Muhammad. The monster of the Ali dynasty made it possible to restore normalcy to Egypt.

But Najib brought them a half-baked result, Muhammad. What is the point of the Ali dynasty still continuing, and the British still retaining privileges in Egypt, but symbolically engaging in a little so-called democratic showmanship?

Nasser was surprisingly furious: "Muhammad has betrayed us, he has been complicit in the English colonialists, which fully proves that any reform of a reformist nature is meaningless and should be opposed...... We should resolutely adopt truly effective measures to ensure that the interests of the country are not further damaged! ”

At this time, Nasser was determined to solve the problem by force, but he was sad that the Free Officers Organization did not have high-ranking officers, including himself, and most of the crew members of the Free Officers Organization were only mid-level officers, and could not actually control the army. And not being able to control the army is the same as not being able to control the situation.

Thinking of this, Nasser hated Najib even more, obviously Najib could solve the problem more cleanly and thoroughly, and let the British get out of here once and for all, but this bastard just didn't do it, but instead went along with the British, this kind of behavior is simply unforgivable!

Nasser hated Najib so much, but Najib did not think that he had done anything wrong, on the contrary, he believed that he had achieved the glorious revolution in Egypt, solved most of the problems without shedding a drop of blood, and he considered himself a hero of the nation. Of course, Najib has not forgotten Nasser's friends, even if they do not fully agree with his strategy, but he still believes that the two sides can cooperate.

Even Najib has worked hard to win some more important positions for his friends, and he is ambitiously considering the issue of a new constitution at this time, and intends to form a new party with his friends that can truly represent the interests of Egyptians, and he is also imagining a beautiful scenario of winning the election in the future and really ruling the country.

So Najib rushed to Nasser and Sadat, hoping that the latter two would join him in doing the work. But greeted with his merciless refusal.

"We will not form a party with you, nor will we cooperate with the British, and we strongly demand that the British must get out of Egypt at once and return all power and rights of Egypt to the Egyptian people. Until these conditions are fulfilled, we will not compromise, we will not make concessions, and it is impossible for us to grovel to the British! ”

"Are you crazy?" Najib was shocked and angry, and he said: "It is enough that we have forced the British to give the best conditions they have ever offered, and let the incompetent Farouk I get out." It is unrealistic to ascend to the sky in one step, we should accept the reality and realize our long-cherished wish step by step in an orderly manner. Instead of thinking radical regardless of reality, doing so will only ruin it all! ”

"It's you who will ruin it all, you think you've changed the situation, but in reality it's business as usual, the only thing that has changed is that before the Englishman's dog was Farouk I, and now the Englishman's dog has become you. If you like to be a dog, go for it, we are inappropriate! ”

The previous friend had made it to the end, and Najib was very painful, he didn't understand why Nasser didn't understand his hard work, why he couldn't take it step by step. Depressed, he went to Evgeny to complain, because he no longer had any friends.

From Yevgeny's point of view, he still admires Najib, an Egyptian who is highly educated and polite, and does not appear so aggressive even when arguing fiercely. If it's as a friend, then Najib is very good. But as a politician, Yevgeny thought that Najib was unqualified, because he also felt that the current result was unfavorable to Egypt, and why should Egypt make such big concessions to Britain when Egypt could get better conditions?

Even Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but compare the current situation in Egypt with the October Revolution, although he did not experience the October Revolution, he heard a certain immortal recall that period of history. During that period of history, at a certain time, the bourgeois Provisional Government headed by Korensky also tried to win over the Bolsheviks, trying to bribe the Bolsheviks with some small favors to make them give up their radical revolutionary ideas. In the end, Lenin's proposition proved to be correct, Yevgeny believed that Egypt today is not much different from the Bolsheviks in those days, and if they persist to the end, the British will inevitably make greater concessions, rather than accept what is good now. Anyway, he heard a certain immortal say: "Politicians do have to learn to compromise, but they should also learn to stick to principles!" ”

Yevgeny thinks Najib should stick to his principles and force Britain to make greater concessions, what constitutional monarchy? To hell with him, it is only right to let the men of insight in Egypt take charge of the fate of Egypt for themselves!

What makes Yevgeny even more sorry for Najib is that he knows that Najib's proposition will never be realized, because the Egyptian issue is no longer a private matter between Egypt and Britain, and the international hooligans have been deeply involved, especially the Americans, and they will never allow the opportunity created with great difficulty to be wasted like this. If Najib can't get Britain out of the way they intended, then the Americans will let Najib get out.

Yes, the reality is so cruel, especially for a small country like Egypt, which has never been able to help itself, and if the big hooligans are not satisfied, the big hooligans will immediately change to an agent who can achieve their intentions. And now the Americans are already very dissatisfied with Najib and are ready to change their agents.

As a friend, Yevgeny wanted to persuade Najib and encourage him to be more radical and cater to the interests of the United States and the Soviet Union, but Yevgeny also knew that Najib was a very determined person, and once he made a decision, he would definitely stick to it. This was the case with the opposition to Farouk I, and now it is the same with the insistence on cooperating with the British. So persuasion probably won't work.

But Yevgeny still said it, because as a friend, it is one thing for Najib to listen to advice, and it is another thing for him to say not to say it. Unfortunately, Najib did not heed the advice, as Yevgeny knew, and continued to do what he had done, which meant that his political career would soon be over.

Yevgeny saw this sign in the newspapers, which had portrayed Najib as a national hero of Egypt, but as he prepared to cooperate with the British, the American newspapers unwittingly changed their evaluation of him, and he gradually transformed from a hero to an accomplice of the British, and some newspapers have even suggested that Najib was frightened by the British during his last prison life, thus revealing the true face of the bear. Instead, more and more newspapers are mentioning Nasser and the Free Officers Organization, and it is clear that the Americans have largely agreed with Nasser, and time is running out for Najib......
