432 Two major problems
The Soviet Union's reply made Churchill cry and laugh, isn't this Nima just playing ball? On the surface, the attitude of the Soviet Union is that there is no attitude, and it puts on a dead appearance that everything has nothing to do with me, and throws the pot to East Prussia, but who doesn't know that you are the one who supports the Jews behind the scenes.
Of course, Churchill also saw something in the attitude of the Soviet Union: "The Russians have no intention of compromising with the Reich, but they are clearly going to shoot black guns." This shows that compromise and negotiation are no longer useful, and we must consider new strategies to solve the problem! ”
What is the new strategy? Lierwin believed that the empire could fully learn from the Soviet practice and set a fire in the backyard of the Soviet Union. Wait until the Soviet Union is also in a mess, and then make a deal with the Soviet Union, presumably at that time, the Russians will no longer have no attitude, right?
This suggestion was accepted by Churchill, so how to set a fire in the backyard of the USSR? Or who should Britain choose as its agent? To be honest, the British have a lot of goals to choose from, after all, there are too many problems left over from the history of the Soviet Union or Russia, and it is enough to pick one or two at random. However, Li Erwen believes that the fire in the backyard of the Soviet Union must cooperate with the established national policy of the empire in the future, and solve the problem in an overall way, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
So the Arabs chosen by Learvine, no, exactly, ****** extremists, had already been associated with extremists in Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Asia before and after the outbreak of World War II. It's just that later, with the needs of the World Anti-Fascist League, the British did not immediately put into action, according to Learvin's plan, they were ready to do it after the victory in World War II, and now who thought that the Soviet Union would take the lead, and the natural British could not be idle.
Soon a round of "terrorist attacks" broke out in Azerbaijan, where extremists attacked local governments in the USSR. One bloody case after another was brewed, and for a time it seemed that it was the turn of the Soviet government to be anxious.
"Comrade Andrey, what do you think of everything that is happening in Azerbaijan?" Trotsky could not sit still, he knew very well that Azerbaijan would not have an accident sooner or later, but at this time there was a moth, and that it would be 100% the revenge of the British.
Li Xiaofeng smiled: "Comrade Trotsky. According to the KGB's reports over the years, it is not surprising that there will be unrest in the Transcaucasus. , religious contradictions, and interference by foreign forces, even if there is no provocation by foreign forces, will explode sooner or later. And now it's just ahead of time. ”
Trotsky wanted to hear this not in his heart, he thought that some immortal was shirking his responsibility, and he commented on his conscience that old Torodin did not mean this, because he knew very well that the problems of that ghost place were indeed very complicated, and that they were the root of the disease that had fallen in Tsarist Russia. After the October Revolution, it was only by the high-pressure policy of the Red Army that it was temporarily suppressed. It is indeed necessary to explode sooner or later. So Lao Tuo really didn't come to hold him accountable, he wanted to hear if Li Xiaofeng had any solution.
However, Lao Tuo also made a mistake, Li Xiaofeng was indeed not shirking responsibility, because he had long expected that the British would definitely take reciprocal retaliation when there was no way, and the old British hooligan was the best at doing this kind of shit. In a sense, Li Xiaofeng wished that the British would do so.
Why? This starts with the founding of the Soviet Union, when the Soviet Union was founded, the member states were nominally independent and sovereign states. The USSR was a big coalition. But the pigs know that this is nothing more than a workaround of Lenin. Tsarist Russia certainly couldn't do it, and the Bolsheviks didn't have the strength to maintain it. Therefore, the mentor opened the door of national self-determination, indicating that the nations conquered by Tsarist Russia were allowed to be independent, but they were required to enter the big family of the Soviet Union.
Of course, in fact, we all know that the Soviet Union was defeated by the Red Army with swords and guns, and the so-called right of national self-determination is nothing more than a fig leaf. For example, Transcaucasia, where ethno-religious contradictions are the most prominent and complex. The USSR actually solved the problem with bayonets.
Historically, during the Stalin period, there were revolts here, but the iron-fisted Iron Comrade solved all this with iron-blooded means, forcefully suppressed them, and even accompanied by purges. All in all. In that section, the Caucasian peoples were "daring to be angry but not daring to speak".
But in this historical time and space, there are no more comrades of steel, so the iron-fisted policy is not so thorough. This gives some pests room to move. Because the Mentor is a person who wants to be faced, and the suppression and purge cannot be as outrageous as steel, this part of the country is naturally a little turbulent.
And Li Xiaofeng has already seen this kind of sign, but there is the ancestral training of the mentor in front of him, and there is not much he can do here. So he was always waiting for an opportunity, as the old saying goes, "If you want to take it, you must give it first" or "If you want it to perish, you must first make it crazy".
The story of Zheng Zhuang Gongke Duan Yuyan tells us that we must first let the enemy die, and wait for them to die before they can be ruthless. So Li Xiaofeng has been waiting, and now with the help of the British, he has waited.
All sorts of extremists finally jumped out, and as soon as they jumped out, they played big, so his reaction was: "It must be suppressed!" ”
Trotsky agreed that he must not let these people mess with the Caucasus, but what he did not expect was that Li Xiaofeng's so-called repression was not as simple as the use of force.
A certain immortal said impassionedly at the ****** meeting: "The problem of the Caucasus is, in essence, the accumulation of ******** and religious contradictions. If we want to solve these problems, we must first solve the above two problems. Just using force to suppress it is a palliative but not a cure, and after twenty or thirty years, these pests will resurge! ”
Trotsky agreed with this statement, but it was said that it was simple, but it was difficult to do, because the national and religious problems had accumulated over a thousand years, and where could they be solved overnight? Anyway, Lao Tuo didn't believe that Li Xiaofeng could solve this problem quickly.
"Of course, this problem cannot be solved overnight," Li Xiaofeng replied confidently: "But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and we start doing it now, which is better than doing nothing!" ”
Dzerzhinsky mused: "Then what do you want to do? ”
Li Xiaofeng stretched out a finger first: "First, of course, it is to suppress it by force and use iron-blooded means to eradicate these factors of social instability. We can do that now. The second point is the implementation of a more targeted ethnic and religious policy! ”
The bigwigs know that the first point is not the point. The point is on the second point, what exactly is the so-called more targeted ethnic and religious policy?
Li Xiaofeng took a deep breath, he knew that Cheng Cheng would not succeed in this move: "Let's talk about religion first." The constitution of the Soviet Union respects the freedom of religious belief of citizens, which is the most basic human right, and it certainly cannot be changed. We cannot change the faith of the citizens of the Caucasus by force. And if we do, we will suffer unprecedented international condemnation! ”
These words made all the bigwigs nod again and again. They were really worried about this, and they were afraid that a certain immortal would shout and kill like a two-hundred-and-five, and that he would really want to poke the hornet's nest.
Li Xiaofeng continued: "But what is true freedom of religious belief? ”
This question made everyone stunned, because this question has no meaning!
But Li Xiaofeng thinks it makes sense: "Every citizen of the Soviet Union has the freedom of religious belief, but is it really every citizen who chooses his or her own beliefs independently? I don't think so, the children of Christians are Christians, the children of ****** serve Allah, and the parents have exerted great influence on the children. Each child does not choose their beliefs on their own, but is indoctrinated with them. Is this freedom? Does this respect children's human rights? ”
Li Xiaofeng took a breath and asked loudly, "Why do children from religious families have to believe in the gods that their parents have served?" Why can't Christian children have ****** children? Otherwise, why do they have to believe in these religions? Why can't you be an atheist, why can't you be a Bolshevik? That's the freedom that all people should have! ”
Trotsky's eyes widened, he somewhat understood what a certain immortal was trying to do. It is an attempt to sever the most effective and strong bond of the spread of religions. It is always their parents who have the greatest influence on children, imagine where the first-hand knowledge we learned when we were young came from? Do we believe in what our parents believed?
Trotsky frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
Li Xiaofeng said with a smile: "The Soviet government has the responsibility and obligation to protect the freedom of religious belief of every citizen, and this freedom is first embodied in independent choice. I believe that citizens under the age of 18 lack the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and do not have the ability to make their own choices. They should not be exposed to so-called religions before this age, only after they have become capable of acting autonomously. They are free to make their own choices, and this is true freedom! ”
Li Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "So. The USSR should legislate to guarantee such freedoms. Citizens under the age of 18 are not allowed to enter churches, mosques and other religious facilities. All clergy were also forbidden to preach in public, especially to Soviet citizens under the age of eighteen...... No clergy are allowed in all schools, and no bookstores are allowed to openly sell the Bible, the Koran, and all other books of religious significance. Strict controls are in place to ensure that all children can make their own and free judgments and choices without external interference! ”
"But that's not realistic at all, is it?" Sverdlov said.
"It's going to cause a big mess!" Ulitsky also added.
Yes, it's really easy to mess up and it's not easy to implement. Because parents have too much influence on their children, even if Li Xiaofeng can prevent the spread of religion in schools and public places. But who can monitor the behavior of parents in private? Who can stop it?
However, Li Xiaofeng said: "Comrades, what we are going to carry out will be a 'holy war' of special significance, and this war cannot be achieved overnight, nor can it achieve immediate results in a short period of time. It can even cause a lot of trouble. But I would say that the only thing we can do is do what we can. We can control schools, churches and other religious facilities, and that's progress. Yes, the parents of the children will still exert great influence on them, but they will not be able to openly do this, let alone openly bring underage citizens into churches and mosques. This blocks the largest route of transmission. Comrades, imagine that a child who goes to church or mosque every day and every week has a better chance of reversing his worldview than a child who can only enter a church or mosque after the age of eighteen? ”
It is clear that the most important thing about religion is that it is ritualistic. If there is no such ritual, is religion still religion? Which is easier to assimilate, a person who regularly attends religious ceremonies or someone who simply does not have access to all this?
This reason made the bigwigs nod their heads again and again, but you think that they were convinced like this, and that is impossible. Because the method of a certain immortal is good in theory, but there are big problems in the actual implementation. Such a policy of religious repression is bound to provoke a strong backlash. Extremist believers are the most likely to be incited, and if they don't get it right, they will detonate violent conflicts. Haven't the Germans done it now, are they suitable for this?
What's more, the big hooligans who engage in foreign countries in this way will also intervene, dig pits and ambushes, and use all kinds of tricks, and then the Soviet Union will be like Britain now, and it will not be a human being inside and out. No matter how you look at it, this is an inferior investment project with high risk and low return!
However, Li Xiaofeng has another set of theories: "On the contrary, I think now is the best time to officially implement this policy!" Our country is at war, and in this state of emergency, our control over the country is unprecedented. Anyone who opposes us can be eliminated as a hostile force. And it is not easy to cause mass riots. As for international influence, the focus of the world is now on the Axis countries, and with proper guidance, we can naturally minimize our influence, not to mention that our approach is in line with human rights and upholding freedom. Besides, Britain and the United States can't get rid of us to resist the Axis alone, even if they want to make trouble, they have to pay attention to a scale! ”
The Great Elders looked at each other, they really didn't expect that a certain immortal would be able to say that he was ugly. And think about it. There is some truth to someone's statement. Of course, they still haven't fully decided to do so.
Li Xiaofeng had to make persistent efforts: "Comrades. As I said before, this is a war. If extremism in these religions is allowed to develop, they will inevitably compete with us for the next generation. Our revolution is not something that can be done in one or two generations, we must ensure that the future of the USSR belongs to communism, and we need more successors! ”
These words moved Trotsky and others, and the struggle of the ******** was something to which the older generation of them attached great importance. The class struggle must be talked about year after year, month after month, and more Soviet teenagers must be drawn into their own circle. Even if it is not possible for all young people to become party members in the future, they must be given a methodology, and as long as they accept this methodology, it will be difficult for the bourgeois, idealistic one to fight back.
And Li Xiaofeng is right. The struggle in the field must take the initiative, and if you can't change this generation, you have to try to influence the next generation, and with the efforts of generation after generation, even the foolish man can remove the mountain.
Anyway, for these older generations, as long as this kind of thing is reasonable, they are willing to do it, as for the risks, was the risk of the October Revolution of that year great, and was the situation of the domestic revolutionary war dangerous or not? The stormy waves of the year have come over, what is this little wind and rain?
Soon ****** there was an internal consensus that in the next few months Li Xiaofeng's ideas must be gradually refined, and that control over the religious sphere must be resolutely strengthened, that only those religions that respect the Bolsheviks and the Soviet government can spread the gospel, and that those who are disobedient and propagate extremist rat droppings, the leaders of the older generation are really not afraid of dirty hands.
Of course, this is only a religious issue, and in fact there is also a national question. It's just that at this meeting, the Great Elders had been suppressed by the religious policy of a certain immortal, and they had forgotten about the national issue. They definitely didn't expect that a certain immortal would have the idea of firing at the national autonomy proposed by the mentor, of course, at that time, a certain immortal didn't dare to be so blatant, at most it was just a side game.
As he said at that meeting: "In the Soviet Union, the national question was actually subordinate to the religious question, and when the religious question was solved, the national question was half solved." So we will first solve the religious problem, and then deal with the national question when the time is ripe! ”
This nonsense can be regarded as fooling the elders, after all, the religious problem is now more prominent, and at the same time two difficult problems are put on the same day, even an old revolutionary like Trotsky can not bear it, and they are happy to avoid the important and trivialize them.
"Aren't you afraid of the Orthodox Church?" On the way back, Yakov asked, "You made an agreement with them to support them!" ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled: "Do I not support them now?" The new religious policy cannot be rolled out across the country immediately, and it must be piloted first. And now it seems that the location of the pilot must be the Caucasus, most likely Azerbaijan and Armenia. That's not the traditional territory of the Orthodox Church, and their reaction won't be too violent! ”
Li Xiaofeng sneered, and said: "And I'm going to ask them to come out to carry out activities soon, I'm afraid they don't have the time or energy to take care of the religious policy of the Soviet Union, and the infidels that Turkey can't kill are enough for them to have a headache!" ”
Looking at the sinister smile of a certain immortal, Yakov couldn't help but shudder, it was obvious that a certain immortal was going to pit people again, and he couldn't help but mourn in silence for those poor worms who fell into the pit...... (To be continued.) )
