As Rodencko said, if it were only the arrest of Lenin and the Bolshevik Central Committee, the Mensheviks and the Socialist-Revolutionaries who controlled the Soviets would not have said anything, and might even applaud, who had allowed the prestige of the Bolsheviks to skyrocket since the beginning of June, and kept making trouble with them!

Soon, Director Alexander, who was worried about his little coffers, received the latest instructions from Duke Lvov - to arrest Lenin and the Central Committee of the Bolsheviks at once!

Director Alexander was very happy to carry out this order, and the arrest of Lenin meant that his mission was successfully completed, and he had long wanted to go back to save his losses The dead fat man jumped up from the sofa with joy, and his huge weight shook slightly: "Arrest Vladimir immediately. Ilyich and all his accomplices, execute it at once! ”

The order was given quickly, but it was not fully carried out, not that the police uncles in Petrograd sympathized with Lenin and could not bear to arrest the revolutionary leader, but that Lenin asked them for something, and there was no such thing - hum, sorry, refuse to cooperate!

"What!" Director Alexander almost couldn't believe his ears, when did the other party dare to resist and turn against him, "Tie up, tie up, take him away!" ”

"But ......" his subordinate was embarrassed, and he carefully reminded: "Director, this is not in accordance with the procedure!" We can't arrest anyone without an arrest warrant! ”

Arrest warrant?

Chief Alexander scratched at his bare head, something he had never heard of. When did our police in Petrograd need this thing to arrest people. Back then, as long as it didn't please the eye, I would catch it if I wanted to.

The fat man commanded, as a matter of course: "Don't care about any arrest warrants!" This is an order from Prime Minister Wolf Lee, just arrest people! ”

The problem is that the adults in the bureau can ignore it, but it doesn't mean that the little soldiers dare to ignore it, your old man is high and powerful, and he is not afraid to find a black pot for the dead ghost, but we, the people who do the specific things, will not be stupid to carry the black pot for you. In the past, when His Majesty the Tsar did not fall, it was okay, you lords said whatever you wanted, and no one dared to blow up with you.

But this is not the same as it used to be. You lords have long since lost the prestige of the past, and there is no arrest warrant to arrest such an important political figure as Lenin, and if you don't get that Shenma Soviet, you will find fault with you, and then you will be at ease. Just push it down, but who are we little minions going to cry to?

No one is more stupid than anyone else these days, and if you want us to arrest people, it's very simple, take a written order, otherwise everything will not be discussed!

So, Director Alexander immediately took the cup, he never thought that his subordinates would pull the calf and drop the chain with him at the critical moment, Nima, this leadership job is really not easy to do! So. On the one hand, the Lord of the Bureau did the work for his subordinates, and on the other hand, he hurriedly contacted Duke Li Wouf and asked the Prime Minister to get an arrest warrant quickly!

"Arrest warrant?"

When Li Vov received a call for help from Director Alexander, his nose almost ran out of air, Nima, how could Lao Tzu issue such an arrest warrant? The fact that the Bolsheviks were in the minority in the Soviets did not mean that they would be left to the hands of the empty prime minister. The arrest of Lenin can be done in secret, but it is absolutely impossible to issue an arrest warrant in the open! In case the Soviets get nervous, I will not be able to shoulder this responsibility at the very least!

Therefore, Li Wuv would definitely not issue an arrest warrant, but persuaded the bureau to find a few scapegoats to arrest Lenin first. The question is. Chief Alexander is not stupid, he has taken a great risk in his actions tonight, and if it were not for the fact that Li Vov promised him the position of police chief, he would have taken care of it, and he had prepared a search warrant and martial law issued by the Cabinet, otherwise he would not have dared to work so hard to kill him.

Now without an arrest warrant, the Bolshevik Central Committee is trying to put the Bolshevik Central Committee to the end. Well, that's a really big responsibility. He is a small police chief who really can't bear it, such a big matter, where can he just find a few substitutes for the dead ghosts to fool. Alexander was sure that even if he had to bear the blame for the dead ghost, it would have to be at least his level, so he flatly rejected Lvov's suggestion and strongly demanded that the prime minister quickly get an arrest warrant.

This matter is like kicking a ball, no one in Li Wulff is willing to take responsibility, so he kicks it around, and after a big turn, the ball is kicked back to Luo Jiangke.

"What? Arrest warrant?! "Luo Jiangke was almost not angry with this news, wouldn't the arrest warrant be issued sooner, can you wait until now? He was very unhappy and questioned Milyukov: "You didn't know to them that the original plan has gone bankrupt, and at this time only decisive measures can save the situation, and Lenin must be arrested for messing up the party, and there are no conditions to talk about!" ”

Milyukov smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart: It is precisely because the cause and effect relationship is clearly explained that the bastard Li Vov is unwilling to issue an arrest warrant, and that old boy obviously wants to protect himself and is unwilling to take responsibility! ”

Of course, this causal Luo Jiangke also wanted to get it, "You persuade Li Wufu again, let him take responsibility, as long as this is done, we can control the situation, as long as the situation is controlled, won't his position as prime minister be more stable?" With such a simple truth, he won't be ignorant! ”

Li Wufu really doesn't know this truth, because Lao Li is still very self-aware, why can he ascend to the throne of prime minister, it's not that the situation is unclear, Luo Jiangke, don't you dare to show your head as a dead fat man? If, as you say, drastic measures against Lenin were taken, it would indeed be possible to bring the situation under control, but if the situation is stable, will you still let me stay in the position of prime minister?

Not to mention that this matter is too tricky, it is very likely that the arrest of Lenin and the Bolsheviks directly exacerbated the contradictions, and it is not known that the February Revolution will be rectified.

"Li Wolf, bastard!" After hearing the news of Li Wufu's refusal to cooperate, Luo Jiangke directly dropped the cup, "This villain who doesn't take responsibility and only cares about his own little profits." I knew that he was such a person. He shouldn't have been made the prime minister back then! ”

In the eyes of the former Minister of War, Duke Lvov really did not take responsibility, but you are not much stronger, if you are responsible, you can form a cabinet in person at that time, why hide behind the scenes like now? What does this mean, this shows that your old man and Li Wolff are all the way, and the crow should not laugh at the pig!

"What now?" Milyukov asked quietly.

"What to do! Where do I know what to do! Luo Jiangke scolded indignantly. One is more unreliable than the other, and one is less responsible than the other! It's all a bunch of rubbish! ”

However, scolding could not solve any problems, and Luo Jiangke paid a lot of money for this surprise attack, so he gave up. Na Luo Fat Man was really reluctant, "Do you have any way?" He asked Milyukov.

Not to mention, Milyukov really has a way, in his opinion, the crux of the problem is that no one is willing to take responsibility, as long as someone is not afraid to take responsibility, then everything will be solved.

Luo Jiangke rolled his eyes and said in his heart: Nima, this is not nonsense! Someone is willing to take responsibility, Lao Tzu can use such a headache?

"I mean," Milyukov explained, "a gentleman is righteous. The villain is known as a ......"

Luo Jiangke was really not in the mood to guess riddles with Milyukov, so he said directly: "If you have a way, just say it directly!" ”

Milyukov sighed secretly and slowly explained: "I mean that people die for money, birds die for food, Lvov and Alexander are unwilling to take responsibility because they are afraid that their interests will be damaged, as long as we offer a high enough price and promise a lot of profit, I think they will also be tempted......"

That's a great way to do it! Money can make the devil grind, and Rodencko has his back to the big bourgeoisie in Russia and lacks everything. There is no shortage of money, but the problem is that Wolf Lee's fortune is not less than his, and it is probably impossible to impress the old fox with money.

At the first time, Luo Jiangke ruled out the possibility of buying Li Wufu, the price was too high, and it was really not cost-effective. After thinking about it, Luo Fatzi asked, "Is that Alexander good to buy?" ”

Milyukov was secretly amused in his heart. What is good or not, the director's throne of that goods is bought, and he is not close to anyone in this life, but he is close to money, and the typical milk is the mother's master.

Otherwise, the people who know you best are often not your friends and relatives, but your enemies! Although the relationship between Milyukov and Alexander is not hostile, the former foreign minister is very unkind to see the bureau, and has suggested to Li Vov several times to get rid of this fat man, but every time he has let this fat man escape, so that now Lao Mi himself has fallen, and the fat bureau is still sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai.

"How much does it cost to buy him out?" Luo Jiangke asked cautiously, the appearance of the miser made Milyukov quite disdainful, "At least five million!" ”

Luo Fatzi suddenly became anxious: "Want so much money? ”

Milyukov replied angrily: "Not only do you have to give money, but you also have to guarantee him a minister's position!" ”

"That's too expensive, isn't it?" Luo Jiangke looked very painful, and asked angrily: "Can you have less!" ”

Milyukov sighed deeply, and did not answer the question directly, but spread his hands helplessly.

Luo Jiangke gritted his teeth and said with great sadness: "You go and inform him, after the matter is completed, he will definitely guarantee that he will have a ministerial position, and the five million will not be less!" ”

Miliukov shook his head and said: "In this case, the blank check is no longer useful, you better write him a check immediately, I believe that when you see the money, that fat man will be motivated!" ”

Luo Jiangke's heart was dripping blood, if he could, he really didn't want to give this money, the problem was that now he had no other choice, gritted his teeth, he took out the check book and wrote the numbers and signatures: "Give one million first, and then give the rest after the deed!" ”

Miliukov sighed again: "I'm afraid it won't work, at least two million must be given first, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to move him!" ”

Luo Jiangke looked directly at Milyukov, and it was not until the other party glared back with the same determined eyes that he knew that he might not be able to bargain.

Milyukov hurried away with two checks for one million from Rogenko, leaving only the painful speaker to sit in the prayer room as if he had lost his soul, of course, if the speaker knew the truth about Miryyukov's request for money, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.

"A million, that's too little!" Alexander stared straight at the check in Milyukov's hand. It's going to be watery. "It's not cost-effective for me to take such a big risk at this price!"

Miliukov looked at the fat man in front of him angrily and asked, "Then how much do you say you want to do!" ”

The greedy bureau seat's eyes kept turning, and he kept thinking about what kind of price to open, and after thinking about it for a long time, he resolutely said: "Whatever, I have to add another 500,000!" ”

Well, Milyukov thought that the bureau would open his mouth widely, but he didn't expect that this product was big-eyed and small-hearted, Nima, and only added 500,000. Your life is really cheap!

"500,000 is 500,000! I'll pay you when it's done! "Miliukov is so happy in his heart, he earned 3.5 million yuan in a single change of hands, and Luo Fatzi's money is really easy to make!

"Write a receipt!" Milyukov threw the check to Chief Alexander and commanded with arrogance.

Write it. As soon as Alexander thought that the loss of his small treasury would be made up for casually, and after the matter was completed, he could still mix with a minister, even the most oilless minister of education, it would be very easy to make a few million a year, right?

Director Alexander began to write the receipt, but just as he was about to fill in the amount, Miliukov stopped him: "I'll fill in the amount for you!" ”

Alexander signed his name on the receipt very shamefully, and sighed while writing: "Hmph, my minister, you must have hacked me a lot of money!" ”

Old Miliukov's face turned red, and he couldn't help but snatch the receipt. Very hypocritically retorted: "I hack your money? Your Excellency the Speaker only promised to give you 1 million, and I posted 500,000 yuan! ”

Director Alexander didn't care much about this matter, otherwise he wouldn't have issued the receipt so happily just now, and carefully tucked the check for one million into his personal pocket, and asked with a big grin: "Anyway, what do you want me to do, ugly words ahead!" The most I can do is to help you arrest Lenin, and if you want to get rid of him, you will have to pay for it! ”

Milyukov thought for a moment. Of course, it would be better for him to be able to get rid of Lenin, but as soon as he heard that he had to add money, he was a little reluctant, anyway, it would be completely OK to arrest Lenin, and there was no need to do things so beautifully.

In fact, Director Alexander just said it casually. It's just a show of himself, if Milyukov really adds money to make him get rid of Lenin. No matter how high the price of the other party is, he will not dare to accept this money, after all, the nature of arresting Lenin and killing Lenin is completely different, and the centrists and center-right in the Soviets, who arrested Lenin the most, are a little unhappy, and if they dare to kill them, then these bigwigs do not mind using their heads to calm the anger of the masses. Although Director Alexander likes money, he also understands that if his life is gone, no matter how much money he has, he will earn it for others.

"Command to go down and arrest Lenin and all his comrades at once!" The bureau lord happily gave the order.

"Director, there's an arrest warrant?"

"Nope!" Director Alexander replied as a matter of course, "But there is something better than that!" ”

"What is it?"

Director Alexander smiled and said: "As long as you are willing to arrest Lenin, I will personally reward you with 500,000 rubles!" ”

500,000 rubles are evenly distributed among 100 people, and each person can share 5,000 yuan, which should be said that in inflationary Russia, this amount of money is really not very much, but the problem is that for the current group of small policemen, 5,000 yuan is equivalent to half a year's income, and the benefits given by the bureau lord are more than these:

"You don't have to be afraid to carry the black pot! I personally promise you, as long as you are willing to work and take responsibility, even if you are fired, your salary will be paid! ”

What is this kind of good thing not to do? For the little policemen in Petrograd, nothing is more important than making money, as long as they are willing to give money, they dare to do anything! So in an instant, they suddenly became infinitely motivated, and rushed into the building in a swarm, and immediately all kinds of smashing and looting and women's screams came out.

Although the 500,000 yuan is painful, it is worth it! Director Alexander felt a little proud in his heart, although he inevitably had to take responsibility after the incident, but with these bunnies carrying the big head, the remaining small head could not hurt his muscles and bones, even if he lost the hat of the police chief, but it was worth changing the hat of a minister.

Just when Director Alexander was dreaming of a promotion and a fortune, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded in the building, and after a while, the little policemen who had just been flaunting their might rushed into the building like wild boars out of the forest, and one by one they swarmed out like lost dogs.

"What are you doing here?" Director Alexander was furious, pointed to the building and shouted, "Why don't you arrest people!" ”

A small sergeant replied weakly: "These Bolsheviks have weapons, and several brothers have been wounded!" ”

That's right, for the police uncles in Petrograd, although it is very important to make money, but they don't do this kind of stupid thing to lose their lives for 5,000 yuan, their strength is to eat soft and fear hard, but they do not have the selfless dedication of loving their jobs and dedicating their youth to their children and grandchildren.

Well, Director Alexander began to feel that the 500,000 dollars were a little worthless, but the problem was that there was no turning back now, and the bureau master could only jump up and down to boost the morale of his subordinates, hoping that these soft eggs could give it a boost.

However, his mobilization work began quickly and ended even faster, especially when there was a burst of gunfire behind the authorities, and then a large number of Chinese workers and soldiers came to cover up, the bureau immediately forgot how to arrest Lenin, and instead began to shout: "Brothers, hold on, you must stand up!" "To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
