Klingberg had absolutely no idea that an even greater surprise was yet to come, and that the day after he awoke, an old man admired by the entire Soviet Union and the proletariat of the whole world would personally award him a medal.

Yes, you read that right, it was Lenin who awarded Klingberg. The Mentor, who had been recuperating in the suburbs of Moscow, was surprised when he heard of Klingberg's deeds. When he learned of the decision of the Central Committee and the Supreme Presidium of the Soviet Union to award Klinginberg the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, he took the initiative to ask Ying to award Klingberg the title.

In the words of the Mentor: "Such a great spirit of internationalism must be honored by me personally, it is a must!" ”

In fact, the Central Committee and the Politburo did not agree at first, for the simple reason that the position of the mentor was too high, and Kursk was too dangerous, not to mention Lenin's age, in case there was a mistake on the way. The Soviet Union simply could not afford such losses!

However, Lenin's attitude was unusually resolute, that is, he said that he would give Klingberg a medal, and he could not stop it at all. In desperation, Trotsky offered a compromise solution: "Then invite Dr. Klingberg to Moscow by special plane and hold a solemn award ceremony!" ”

However, this suggestion was strongly resisted by Lenin, and the tutor retorted with some anger: "I must not agree to such an approach, and I should go to Kursk to award Dr. Klingberg the honor, so that the importance and sincerity of the Soviet government can be demonstrated." As for holding a grand ceremony in Moscow, how can the country's finances be so tight at this very moment, how can it be wasted casually? I'm afraid Dr. Klingberg wouldn't like this so-called 'grandeur' either, and a true internationalist would not like it. At last. As the former chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR. I, Lenin, have not made any contribution to the Great Patriotic War until now. It is necessary for me to go to the front once, to comfort the loveliest people who shed their blood for our Motherland! ”

In fact, the last point was the most crucial, in the domestic revolutionary war, because of the division of duties, the work of cheering up the soldiers at the front was done by Trotsky, and Lenin remained in Moscow more to preside over the overall situation. And now, Lenin considered himself an idler, and Trotsky could not leave. At this moment of national crisis, it is reasonable for him to go to the front line.

Lenin's insistence made the Politburo very difficult, let Lenin not go, the tutor gave one reason after another, and the attitude was very resolute. Let him go, in case there is a mistake, who can afford this responsibility?

However, what the Central Committee and the Politburo did not expect was that when they were discussing whether to agree to the request of the Mentor, the Mentor had already gone on his own way. He departed from Moscow on a special train and headed straight for Kursk.

The unorganized and undisciplined nature of the tutor was so angry that Trotsky wanted to scold his mother. Because he was under so much pressure right now, Lenin was unique to the Soviet Union. If the Mentor makes a mistake, he, the chairman of the People's Commissar and the general secretary of the party, will be held responsible. And a considerable part of the old revolutionaries still think so:

"Why did Comrade Lenin go to the front? The reason is very simple, that is, Trotsky refused to go to the front, and the mentor could not see it before he took the initiative to ask for help! ”

Well, this is a typical conspiracy theory, and in the eyes of these members of the Politburo, the Mentor is not accustomed to Trotsky's general actions after the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, and is a high degree of dissatisfaction with Trotsky's alarm bell with practical actions.

Of course, these are all fakes, they are all nonsense, and only those who work in the Central Committee know that the Mentor is not dissatisfied with Trotsky, and if he is not satisfied with Trotsky's previous performance, he does not need to vigorously support Lao To, and he can let Lao Totsky get out of his way by directly stating his attitude!

In fact, Lenin's mind was very simple, he just wanted to contribute to the Soviet Union's victory in this war. On the Politburo's side, he can't go to the meeting, and it's not convenient for him to express any opinions. He is not particularly good at military affairs, and he can't say anything casually in his capacity, if you really do that, it is called irresponsible!

Therefore, Lenin thought that the only thing he could do was to cheer up the vast number of Red Army commanders and fighters at the front, and this work did not involve responsible political disputes and interests, and his special political position and prestige were also suitable for this.

This was Lenin's truest thoughts, as an old revolutionary, he really couldn't bear to watch the decisive battle between the Soviet Union and communism on the sidelines. As an old revolutionary, he has the responsibility and obligation to do his part.

Therefore, after hearing those boring gossip on the special train, Lenin pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "A group of boring and shameless villains, at this time, do not want to do their best for the country, and are still engaged in such unpopular conspiracies. It is very necessary for some of our party members and cadres to strengthen their self-cultivation! ”

When Lenin's original words were transmitted back to Moscow, more than half of the unpleasant chewing tongues were immediately lost. The reason is very simple, there are always some political careerists who want to use the topic to play, and in order to be able to get to power, they can do anything.

When Li Xiaofeng heard the evaluation of the tutor, he smiled and said, "Some people can't wait!" ”

Yakov, of course, knew who some of him was talking about, and who was actually spreading this gossip is not a secret to the KGB at all. It was Sverdlov's cousin Jagda who had been in a big mess before. Of course, it is important to note that Sverdlov did not instruct Jagda to do this, because Sverdlov's political IQ could not have been so low.

These rumors were spread by Jagorda on his own initiative, in order to undermine Trotsky's prestige and to build momentum for his own cousin. The reason is very simple, Lao Tuoman can still work for two and a half years when he is full, and 1945 is a year of major elections. Sverdlov is indeed the first in line now, but before the dust settles on this matter, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents?

Taking a step back, even if there are no surprises, Sverdlov will have to build momentum for himself to come to power, because the situation he faces is not particularly ideal. Within the Leninists, the challenging forces led by Li Xiaofeng pressed very hard, even if everyone reached a certain degree of agreement. But if Xiao Si really wants to come to power, he will be in power and actively do something. It is indeed necessary to build momentum. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will be forced to be embarrassed.

Therefore, since the second half of 1942, Sverdlov has rarely stayed in Moscow, but has flown around the front line, playing the banner of supervising the war, cheering and investigating. In fact, Xiao Si has only one purpose, that is, to build relations with the military.

And Youngoda took advantage of this to make a fuss. The attack on Trotsky did not go to the front to supervise the war, as was the case in the revolutionary war at home, was to cross the river and tear down the bridge. Oh? You ask him why he didn't attack a certain immortal. The main reason is that a certain immortal is too difficult to mess with, his ears and eyes are too smart, and Yagoda knows very well that if his rumors are aimed at a certain immortal, and they have not yet spread, the rumor-mongers will send Siberia to repair the earth or directly send the shooting range to eat peanuts.

As the so-called persimmon picks a soft pinch, in Yakolda's view, Trotsky is a soft persimmon, anyway, you are going to step down, take you as a stepping stone. How's that!

It's just that what makes Jagda underestimate is that he has forgotten the feelings of his mentor. In the Soviet Union, Lenin was a person who could never be underestimated as long as he lived, and as long as he spoke, the big guy had to bow his head and take notes, and then go back to understand and figure it out. As for his old man's public criticism of certain people for living a certain phenomenon, then it is the right way to quickly admit his mistakes.

In Li Xiaofeng's opinion, Yagoda is really dead, who do you say that things can't be done, but you just touch the tiger butt of the mentor, do you really think that his old man is a tiger in Pingyang? Stupid! Look for trouble!

"You see, Yakoda won't end well. Even if Comrade Yakov came to power, he would not be able to become the climate! Li Xiaofeng said with an oath.

Why did he say that? The reason is simple, who is the mentor? When the successor was chosen, there was a consensus within the faction that Stalin and Xiao Si were the best choice to play a double set of cars. But who did he choose in the end?

Mentors are the kind of people who are very assertive and dare to make decisions. Now he just said a non-painful word, and seemed to be disdainful of Yagoda's bad embryo. But Li Xiaofeng knew that the disdain of the mentor was only superficial, and he was afraid that he had already attracted attention in his heart, and he would never let these little ghosts spoil the good situation of the Soviet Union. In other words, even if Sverdlov succeeds smoothly, there will be nothing wrong with Youngolda, and the best outcome for that person is to mix up in a secondary position until retirement.

However, Li Xiaofeng is not concerned about the ending of Yakoda, for him, even if Sverdlov succeeds smoothly, it is just a matter of words to crush Yakoda to death. And Xiao Si is not a fool, once he understands what this cousin has done, I am afraid that he will immediately turn his face.

What Li Xiaofeng really cares about is Yagoda's little lover: "Is that woman still active?" ”

Yakov replied: "Very active, especially in recent months, not in general. It seems that Miss Learvin attaches great importance to the chess piece she left behind! ”

"Humph!" Li Xiaofeng sneered, "Pay attention to a fart, you underestimate that woman too much, for her, everything is a chess piece, and she can give up anything." If you follow her rhythm, you'll fall into the pit. Don't focus all your attention on the woman of Youngoda, my personal feeling is that it is just a trick thrown by Learvin! ”

At the end, Li Xiaofeng added: "Li Erwen is very good at creating surprises for us, I don't believe that when she left the Soviet Union, she only left one line, this is not her style!" ”

When Li Xiaofeng talked about Learvin, the female spy was also nervously carrying out various activities, and after the unrest in Palestine, as Churchill's newly appointed senior adviser on intelligence, she immediately set off for Jerusalem to investigate the truth about the fierce conflict between Jews and Palestinians.

So does she have a conclusion?

Learwin sneered: "Is the conclusion really important?" In fact, we all know what the conclusion is, how could such a bloody vendetta spread so quickly? Without the interference of external forces, this is simply impossible. We all know very well that there is an invisible hand that is driving all this, and it is he who has single-handedly created this conflict! ”

M said angrily: "This is your conclusion? ”

Learwin shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's true. ”

M said: "What the Prime Minister wants to know is where this invisible hand comes from!" And not what you call the facts! ”

"No!" Learvin shook his head and said, "What the Prime Minister wants to know is not where the invisible hand came from?" What if you know? Fight back immediately? ”

M said angrily: "Why can't you fight back!" This enemy, who is bent on disrupting the Empire's layout in the Middle East, must be eradicated! ”

Learvin scoffed: "What if I told you that this invisible hand belongs either to the USSR or to the United States?" Do you still insist that 'it must be eradicated'? ”

M was stunned. But she immediately asked, "Do you have any proof?" ”

Learwin laughed again: "Need proof?" ”

M was silent. What if there is evidence? In the current environment. This kind of thing has to be stopped. After all, the most dangerous enemy of the Reich now is Germany.

M was silent, while Learvin was talking: "I have said a long time ago that what the prime minister needs to know is not who the enemy is, and that doesn't make any sense. If it was the Nazis, that would be normal, but we were in a state of war, and we were still lagging behind, and there was no way to retaliate for the time being. It's the Americans. It's also normal, it's not a day or two that the Americans have such ambitions, especially after the discovery of oil in the Middle East, where it's all too normal for the Americans to cause trouble for the empire. The question is, can we turn the other cheek with the Americans? Of course, the USSR was the most likely, to Andrei. Petrovich's character, this means he can use. But what could we do with the USSR? ”

Learwin shrugged his shoulders and continued: "So I say that it doesn't matter who the enemy is at all, what matters is how to solve this trouble!" ”

M asked sullenly, "What do you think?" ”

Learwin shook his head and said, "Where can I have any high opinions." In my opinion, the Middle East is there a problem. Even if there is no external force to provoke it, it will explode sooner or later. After all, we made it happen, and it was the inevitable result from allowing the Jews to return to that land of right and wrong. It's just that now the problem has been detonated in advance, and we are just caught off guard! ”

M frowned and asked, "In other words, you can't help it?" ”

Learwin smiled: "I didn't say that! ”

M couldn't stand Lierwin's way of saying things in circles, and she asked impatiently, "Then what do you mean?" ”

Learwin's meaning is very simple: the contradiction between Jews and Arabs was originally caused by the British Empire, and this was a nail deliberately driven by the British Empire into the Middle East. From the day this nail was pushed in, it was destined to work.

Of course, the British Empire did not expect that this role would be played so early and at such an inopportune time. This contradiction was detonated by the wrong people at the wrong time, and the British Empire had to pay for it. Who let this nail be driven into it by themselves?

So it's clear that since the mistake has been made, there is no room for unrecovery, and the only way to solve the problem is to make the mistake wrong. How can you make a mistake?

Learvine proposed two options: "The first option would be to repeal the Balfour Declaration and end the plan to support the Jewish restoration in Palestine. Full support for the Arabs, move the Jews out of Palestine! ”

How about this approach?

In the words of the British themselves: "Fucked up!" "The Balfour Declaration says that if you give up, you can give up, isn't this self-defeating? And how do the Jews explain it? The current Jewish power is not the state of the grass chicken after the First World War, in the United States, the Jewish financial consortium holds the money bag, once Britain withdraws the Balfour Declaration and unconditionally supports the Arabs, then the American Jewish consortium will be willing to give up? During the Russo-Japanese War, in retaliation against the anti-Semitic Tsarist Russia, the Jews opened their purse strings to give loans to Japan, Russia's enemy.

Now it is impossible for the Jews to do the Germans any favors, but it is entirely possible to find a way to kick Britain out of the Lend-Lease Act or to deal a financial blow to the British Empire! For the British Empire, which was already financially stretched, could it withstand such a toss?

Therefore, Learvin's first plan was thrown into the trash as soon as it was proposed, and the Balfour Declaration must not be abandoned. Learwin proposed the second plan: "Then give the Arabs a little color, suppress their opposition, and solve this problem with a quick knife!" ”

Tut! For the political elite of the British Empire, the second option is equally bad: for hundreds of years the British Empire has been able to stand at the pinnacle of world power for only one reason – a balancing act. To put it simply, it is impossible to weaken the competitiveness of its enemies by creating a balance, and in this way, the empire has defeated a series of opponents such as France and Germany.

And this strategy has penetrated deeply into the marrow of the political elite of the British Empire, and the unilateral one-sided strategy that Learwin is now proposing is a blasphemy of the established national policy of the Empire.

Imagine that the Arabs have been offended now, and in the future, when the Nazi threat is resolved, when the empire re-governs the Middle East, it will be unanimously opposed by the Arabs. If oil hadn't been found in the Middle East, would it have been okay for the political elite of the British Empire to abandon the vault with gold buried beneath this sand?

So the elite of the British Empire was immediately caught in a tangle, desperate to find a third, more perfect solution to the problem...... (To be continued.) )
