028 Keep going
Vladimirsky looked worriedly at the building of the General Administration of Posts and Telecommunications and Telephones in the distance, ten minutes had passed, and according to the original plan, the vanguard led by Li Xiaofeng should have taken the gate of the building at this time. But why didn't he send a signal as agreed, could it be said that the plan had failed?
To be honest, Vladimirsky didn't have much confidence in Li Xiaofeng's whimsical plan, he thought that this was a risk, as long as the enemy saw the slightest flaw, the raiding troops would be tantamount to meat buns beating dogs.
Vladimirsky already regretted that he agreed to someone's plan, that he did not dissuade someone in time, that he came to attack the General Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone. He thought to himself that perhaps Usievich was right, that the revolutionary forces in the city were still weak and could only be put on the defensive, and that any offensive action would be self-defeating.
"Comrade Andrei hasn't signaled yet?" Vladimirsky asked the correspondent anxiously.
"Nope!"
"Is there any movement up ahead?"
"Nope!"
"Really?"
The communicator nodded honestly: "No! ”
Vladimirsky sighed speechlessly, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch for the last time, he had already made up his mind that if Li Xiaofeng had not given the signal in five minutes, then he would lead his troops to start a strong attack.
But Vladimirsky's fears were completely unfounded, and less than a minute later, good news came over the radio: "Call number two, here is number one...... We have taken the gate, please come to support immediately, repeat. We have taken the gates. Please come and support now! ”
This news really relieved Vladimirsky. He couldn't wait to lead his young men to the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones.
He gave a very serious order: "Get ready for battle!" We must go into battle as fast as we can! ”
In Vladimirsky's view, regardless of the success of Li Xiaofeng's plan, Tekko's strength alone could not destroy all the enemies in the building. Even he felt that Li Xiaofeng seized the door unexpectedly at most. The battle that follows will be a protracted clean-up war. He and his men will fight the enemy for every house, every corridor, every step forward at the cost of blood......
Well, when Vladimirsky rushed to the General Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones, the above-mentioned scenes that worried him did not appear at all, and the entire building was basically under Li Xiaofeng's control. All he needed to do was take over the building's defenses.
"Comrade Vladimirsky, time is pressing, so let's make a long story short!" Li Xiaofeng said without hesitation: "You immediately take over the defense of the building, and transfer another young man to my company, I will ......"
"Slow down! Slow down! Vladimirsky quickly interrupted him and asked inexplicably: "Why am I taking over the defense of the building?" Comrade Andrei, I was only sent to assist you by the Revolutionary Military Council, which gave you the task ......"
"I know that the task of the Tao is to recapture the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone," Li Xiaofeng hurriedly snatched back the right to speak, "Now we have completed this task excellently!" So we have to take the next step......"
"What's next?"
Vladimirsky's mind was a little dazed. He did not remember any next steps, and in fact the Revolutionary Military Council did not expect Li Xiaofeng to recapture the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones. In essence, this counterattack was more of a trap.
That's right, it's a trap, the Revolutionary Military Council didn't think that Li Xiaofeng could succeed, and the reason why it agreed to someone's request was mainly based on two considerations:
First of all, the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone is of great significance, and if it is lost, it will basically lose the right to communicate freely in the city. This effect is quite bad, and if the Revolutionary Military Council does nothing, it will greatly demoralize them and will not be conducive to their leadership of future "insurrectionary operations", so it is necessary to fight back, at least to let all the revolutionary masses and revolutionary soldiers know that the Revolutionary Military Council has fought back!
Secondly, although a counterattack was necessary, the Revolutionary Military Council did not think that a counterattack would have any effect, and the significance of the General Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone was too important, and the enemy would definitely be heavily armed. In this case, there must be a fool who voluntarily undertakes this undefeated task and carries the blame.
Obviously, Li Xiaofeng was the "fool" selected by the Revolutionary Military Committee, and the reason why he did not agree to it at the beginning was actually a trick of indulgence in lust, and it was estimated that Li Xiaofeng would make a military order, and then use this to facilitate them to shirk their responsibilities in the future.
After the operation fails, they can put all the blame on Li Xiaofeng's head - you have to go, and we also warn you that there is a risk in it, and it is your fault that you fail!
And what's the best thing about letting Li Xiaofeng be this fool? It's the Revolutionary Military Committee that can happily slap a certain immortal's face, don't you think you're a central commissioner, very strong, very excited, very excited? Then we will let you hit your head and break the bloodstream, so that you can no longer be so arrogant and proud!
Therefore, the intention of the Revolutionary Military Committee is quite sinister, that is, it is ready to use this opportunity to kill Li Xiaofeng's prestige. So that he could no longer put pressure on the Revolutionary Military Council on the issue of an armed uprising.
Yes, although the armed uprising was underway, both the outright opposition like Noggen and the ordinary centrists were dissatisfied with Li Xiaofeng's strength. They were forced to take up arms, and in their hearts they were reluctant to fight. In order to get things back on track, on the one hand, they were passive and slacking off, preparing to grind for a long time to delay until the day when the situation changed, and on the other hand, they were also actively preparing to give Li Xiaofeng a hand.
Vladimirsky is well aware of this, not so much because he has joined the opposition and the wall-riding, but because he also belongs to the radical wing of Moscow, to the part of the troublemakers to be attacked.
Before leaving, Pjanitsky warned him. This operation is a pit. Don't be stupid enough to jump in. And he also had to pull Li Xiaofeng a little, so as not to let him fall too badly. The best way to do this is to have no merit and no fault, and just pull the troops back after making a show.
As for Li Xiaofeng's military order, he also deserved it, who made him so impulsive. It doesn't matter if young people suffer a little loss, anyway, for the sake of the Party Central Committee and Comrade Lenin, those bastards don't dare to go too far, at most they will be a little embarrassed.
And now. These heavy things, which had been pressing on Vladimirsky's heart, completely disappeared with Li Xiaofeng's "unexpected" victory. They accomplished the "impossible" task! They recaptured the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones, not only without fault, but also with great achievements, under such circumstances, Li Xiaofeng suddenly proposed some plans for the next step, which shocked Vladimirsky, who was ready to accept it when he saw it.
He will not allow Li Xiaofeng to undermine the current good situation, and he must not allow the impulsiveness of young people to turn good things into bad things. Therefore, he immediately raised his objection: "Comrade Andrey, our task is to recapture the General Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones, and now we have successfully completed this task...... The only thing we have to do now is to inform the Revolutionary Military Council of the good news. Then wait for their next command! We must not act on our own, let alone make our own decisions! Otherwise, it is unorganized and undisciplined! ”
Vladimirsky's cowering and conservative attitude made Li Xiaofeng very unhappy. He retorted: "Comrade Lenin has always warned us that when carrying out armed struggle, we must not be afraid of the head and tail, but must mobilize our subjective initiative and carry out active and bold actions!" And now, a good opportunity to change the balance of strength between the enemy and the enemy is in front of us, in front of us is the Kremlin, as long as we take a step forward, we can transport the guns and ammunition from the Kremlin armory, have you ever thought about it, how many comrades can be armed with this? ”
Vladimirsky cringed and said: "But we have reached an agreement with Liang Bozev in the morning, he will withdraw the non-commissioned officers and students who surrounded the Kremlin, and we will no longer transport arms, if we tear up the agreement......"
Li Xiaofeng was furious and reprimanded: "Where is there any agreement, the moment we decide to carry out an armed uprising, our enemies can only fight to the death!" There is no longer a middle way! At this time, you are still clinging to the agreement reached between the original surrender faction and the enemy, and your attitude is very improper! ”
Vladimirsky dared to speak, but Li Xiaofeng ruthlessly interrupted him: "Besides, has this agreement really been implemented?" Let me ask you, did Liang Bozev really remove the siege? Now he not only failed to implement the agreement, but suddenly attacked the post and telecommunications and telephone buildings, what does this mean? It shows that he didn't take that agreement seriously at all! ”
Speaking of this, Li Xiaofeng suddenly raised his voice and roared at Vladimirsky: "From the moment Liang Bozev attacked the General Administration of Posts and Telecommunications and Telephone, all agreements between us have been nullified!" In the face of the enemy's provocation that does not know whether to live or die, we can only return fire tenfold and hundredfold! Otherwise an armed uprising would have become a joke! ”
Vladimirsky looked at Li Xiaofeng stunned, from the bottom of his heart, he felt that someone was right, the enemy had already torn up the armistice agreement and launched a shameful sneak attack, if we couldn't fight back, then what was it?
The fundamental reason why the uprising in Moscow has come to this state and allowed the enemy to grow bigger and bigger step by step is that the revolutionary military council's idea of appeasement is causing trouble. Otherwise, on the 25th, when the enemy is at its weakest, we can strangle him. Where, as now, the enemy is getting stronger and stronger, but the forces of the revolution are being squeezed into the corners of the wall.
As a staunch revolutionary, Vladimirsky was bitter about the current state of affairs, but he did not know how to change this unfavorable situation, and he was worried that too radical actions would cause a split within the Revolutionary Military Council.
Therefore, he cautiously replied: "Comrade Andrei, although I agree with your opinion. But after all, the armed uprising in Moscow must be subject to the leadership of the Revolutionary Military Council, and I think it is better to consult the Revolutionary Military Council first about your plans! ”
Li Xiaofeng pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Comrade Vladimirsky, you are really talking foolishly. Do you think the timid Revolutionary Military Council will agree to my plan? I can assure you that if you go to the capitulationists, you will get only one answer - no agreement! Even, they will immediately deprive us of this pitiful military power. Find another capitulationist to take our place in the General Office of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone! ”
"But ......," Vladimirsky just opened his mouth. Li Xiaofeng hurriedly said: "Then it won't be a few hours." Rybozev will sneak up here again and drive our team away again! Tell me, what's the point? ”
Vladimirsky still had concerns: "But it's not appropriate to take action without informing the Revolutionary Military Council, right?" ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled and smiled very thiefly, "Comrade Vladimirsky, you have to learn to be flexible!" True, the Revolutionary Military Council did not let us go to the Kremlin. But that doesn't mean we can't do it! ”
Vladimirsky was completely confused and asked: "What do you mean?" ”
"I mean it very simply!" Li Xiaofeng said with a smile, "The task given to us by the Revolutionary Military Committee is to recapture the General Bureau of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones occupied by the enemy and eliminate all the enemies entrenched in it!" Therefore, it is our responsibility to wipe out the enemy completely! ”
Vladimirsky said stupidly: "But the enemies here have been wiped out!" ”
"Where is it wiped out!" Li Xiaofeng said seriously, "Obviously, there are many fish that have slipped through the net and are fleeing in the direction of the Kremlin, in order to eliminate them cleanly and thoroughly, we must continue to pursue!" ”
Vladimirsky understood, fully understood, to put it bluntly. Li Xiaofeng is just playing the side ball and taking advantage of the orders issued by the Revolutionary Military Committee to exploit loopholes. We are chasing the enemy. It wasn't intentional to get close to the Kremlin, no one thought that the enemy would flee in that direction, did it?
Vladimirsky changed his opinion of Li Xiaofeng, whose first impression was not particularly good, and when the party committee cleaned up Nogan, he was too strong, too unforgiving, and gave people a sense of aggressiveness. And now, he realized that Li Xiaofeng is not only able to play hard, but also good at playing yin. As long as it becomes a fait accompli, the Revolutionary Military Council will not be able to do anything about them!
As long as he thought of making those wall-riding factions deflated, Vladimirsky was a little excited, he couldn't do things if he wanted to, and he didn't know what to do, but now with Li Xiaofeng pointing out a clear way for him, why not do it?
"Is one company enough?" Vladimirsky asked.
Li Xiaofeng replied, "Less is a little less, but we have limited manpower now, so we can only settle!" After all, the General Administration of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone still needs people to defend! ”
"We can call the Revolutionary Military Council and say that the mission has been completed, and ask them to send someone to support us!" Without even thinking about it, Vladimirsky came up with a bad idea.
Li Xiaofeng gave him an angry look, "Do you think the Revolutionary Military Committee will let us stay here after knowing that we have completed our mission?" ”
Vladimirsky immediately wanted to slap himself in the mouth, but this was said without going through his brain at all, and those people would definitely recall him and Li Xiaofeng when they learned that the conspiracy had failed. At that time, making small moves was disobeying, which was tantamount to giving them the handle and letting them go under the knife.
"However, if we do not inform the Revolutionary Military Council, there will be no reinforcements, and we will not be able to hold this place without reinforcements."
"You're thinking too simply!" Li Xiaofeng sighed and explained, "Even if you notify them, there will be no reinforcements!" Don't you understand the attitude of those guys, they just want to wait, they want to delay, they just want to negotiate with the enemy! Do you think they will value the General Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephone? ”
"What then?" Vladimirsky was stupid, in his opinion, according to Li Xiaofeng, the future is bleak.
"So let's be proactive!" Li Xiaofeng said step by step, "Don't put your hope on the Revolutionary Military Committee, the only thing that those guys are reliable is that they are not reliable at all!" We are now going to mobilize the masses and arm them with weapons from the Kremlin armory! Having armed them, we don't need to look at the face of the Revolutionary Military Council! ”
It dawned on Vladimirsky that it was so simple to unravel this tangled situation. He knew too well the revolutionary enthusiasm of the grassroots masses that it was in full swing, and on the 25th, when the workers of Moscow heard that the fighting of the uprising had begun, they carried the soldiers of the 55th Infantry Regiment into Moscow, who had actively responded to the uprising, above their heads. On the 26th, while the Revolutionary Military Council was negotiating with Liang Bozev, the workers of Hewai District seized the main power station and controlled the lighting of the whole city, and the Red Guards of Simon District also occupied an arsenal and provided the workers with valuable weapons.
Compared to the workers and soldiers who were active at the grassroots level, the Moscow Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies and the Revolutionary Military Council were like slow-moving turtles, and their greatest contribution after the outbreak of the revolution was to make the enemy stronger little by little and to create obstacles to future armed struggle.
When Li Xiaofeng revealed his true plans, Vladimirsky felt for the first time that there was hope for the victory of the revolution. And he is willing to contribute to this hope.
"Very well, I will send someone to contact Comrade Pjanitsky, who has been sent by the Revolutionary Military Council to pacify the masses in the city, if he can organize the masses, and you can provide weapons and ammunition, then it is really possible for us to hold the Main Directorate of Posts, Telecommunications and Telephones and the Kremlin!"
Li Xiaofeng immediately corrected him, "What we have to do is not defense!" According to the opinion of the revolutionary mentor Engels, 'once an uprising has begun, it must be acted with the utmost determination and attacked, and defense is the dead end of any armed uprising!' It will destroy the uprising before it can confront the enemy! ’。 So, Comrade Vladimirsky, we must boldly take the initiative to attack until the enemy is completely destroyed! (To be continued.)
