120 Retaliation
Trotsky did not know that something had happened on Li Xiaofeng's side, and when he was in full swing, he was hung up with a click, without any warning, and he was stupid in a daze.
It was only after a few seconds that Trotsky let out a roar: "Bastard, dare to hang up on me!" β
Without saying a word, he asked the operator to dial Li Xiaofeng's number again, but Li Xiaofeng was no longer in the office at this time, so no matter how long the phone rang, he couldn't hear it.
"Lawlessness, no one in sight!" Trotsky's whole body trembled with anger, as a member of the Politburo, he was the only one who hung up on other people's phones, and today he was hung up for the first time, and Lao Tuo had a feeling of being slapped in the face.
"It can't be tolerated anymore, if it goes on like this, where is the prestige of the Politburo!" An enraged Trotsky flipped the table in his office, and to tell the truth, before this happened, he had a good impression of a certain immortal.
When he had just returned to the country, someone was busy helping to contact the residence, and after his assassination, he helped to catch the murderer, even if it was not long ago when Ullitsky's unpleasantness happened, but Trotsky still felt that a certain immortal was very good, even if it was for his opponents, but he still admired such a capable young man very much.
But today, this good impression has completely collapsed, and Trotsky, old and new, has come to his heart, and he is determined to teach a certain immortal a lesson that he will never forget.
Without hesitation, Trotsky immediately called Lenin and told him fiercely: "Comrade Lenin, some comrades in Moscow are becoming more and more disagreeable. Not put the Politburo at all. I put the center in my eyes. In the future, whether the party's discipline will be observed, how can it be obtained in the long run! β
Lenin was a second monk who was at a loss for words, and did not understand at all what Trotsky was smoking, but the word Moscow aroused his vigilance, and he was very clear about Trotsky's ambitions to get his hands on Moscow, and two days ago the two sides had a fierce confrontation at an enlarged meeting of the Central Committee. Now that Trotsky is bringing up the old story, what is he going to do?
So Lenin didn't show his mouth easily. I'm not going to say anything, let's see what you want to say, if you're really looking for trouble, hum, then I'm sorry.
"Which comrade made you so angry!" Lenin smiled and asked, "Are they all comrades in the party, if you have something to say, let's discuss it slowly!" You don't need to be angry, let alone angry! β
Trotsky's nose was almost crooked, and he suspected that Lenin was in collusion with someone. The first one hung up the phone, and the last one played a round field. Directly turned the big thing into a small thing, so that Ulitsky continued to stay in Moscow and get moldy. No way! I can't go your way!
Trotsky was thrilled and hastened to say: "This is by no means a trivial matter, and I have not been angry with anyone, I am simply worried about this phenomenon!" I think we have to improve our way of working, otherwise we ......"
Lenin really didn't have an interest in listening to this unnutritious nonsense, Trotsky was just too talkative, and he would talk at length as soon as he came up, which was really unbearable.
The mentor said lightly, "Let's talk about the specific incident!" On the matter, there is no need to go online for the time being! β
When Trotsky heard this, his heart became even more unpleasant, and he became more and more suspicious that Lenin was in collusion with someone, so he had to emphasize his indignation and apprehension again: "How can this be a platform? I kindly called Andrey. Comrade Petrovich knew the situation in Moscow and hoped to help him stabilize the situation in Moscow, but Comrade Andrei's attitude was extremely bad. Not only did he dismiss my advice on the phone, but he hung up the phone without even waiting for me to finish. Then when I tried to contact him again, he simply didn't answer the phone. Is this attitude correct, and doesn't it tell the story? Anyway, I personally can't accept this kind of insult, Andrey. Petrovich must give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise, I can only think that ......"
Lenin took the phone away a little, and the sounds of the bars and bars were unbearable not only for a certain immortal, but also for him, the great teacher. He was prepared to wait for Trotsky's mood to settle down, or for his saliva to dry up before he spoke.
To tell you the truth, Lenin really felt that Trotsky was making a big fuss, my people don't like you, and although it is a little worse to hang up your phone, it is also normal, and if Andrei accepts your so-called suggestion in its entirety, then I have to wonder if this kid has a problem with his brain or has a crooked ass.
Moreover, Lenin felt that he knew someone very well, and if it were not for the fact that Trotsky's so-called "suggestions" were too outrageous, someone would not have hung up the phone directly, and that someone could react so strongly, one can imagine how "indignant" Trotsky's suggestions were.
So Lenin calmly said: "What suggestions do you have made?" If it makes sense, I can call the kid personally and ask him to accept your suggestion and apologize to you personally. β
Belch...... Trotsky did not know what to reply, and the reason why he kept talking at length was to avoid the question, because he really did not make any suggestions, but was only trying to get Ullitsky back. However, the central authorities have already made a decision on this matter, and someone's actions are completely in line with the spirit of the central authorities and are beyond reproach. At best, he can only criticize someone for "protecting" Ulitsky too tightly and is suspected of restricting Ulitsky's freedom in life.
Moreover, he can privately catch Li Xiaofeng and criticize him, who made him a member of the Politburo? However, he could not bring the matter to the table, otherwise he would be the one who would be criticized, and presumably Lenin would not have let go of this opportunity to cut him.
"My proposals may not be very mature, so I will consult Comrade Andriy on this, and it is precisely because they are immature that I did not put them forward in the Politburo," Trotsky immediately found a way out for himself, "but Comrade Andrei's attitude was unacceptable, even if my proposal was not very reasonable, he could not hang up on me." Then deliberately don't answer my call! β
Trotsky was now biting at the details of Li Xiaofeng's hanging up on his phone. That's all he can do to attack that. But who was Lenin? His IQ was no lower than that of Trotsky, and as soon as the style of his words changed, Lenin clearly perceived that there was a problem, a big problem, and I am afraid that Trotsky was far more than a few immature suggestions.
Since he found out that there was a problem, Lenin would not have followed Trotsky's rhythm, and his tone suddenly became even colder: "Okay, I will ask Comrade Andrei to find out the specific situation of the matter......"
After all that is said. Lenin naturally hung up the phone, he didn't bother to entangle with Trotsky, you just call me casually, let's talk a few empty and fake nonsense, just want to deal with my people, you are too naΓ―ve, right?
What's more, Lenin felt that Li Xiaofeng probably didn't do anything wrong in this matter, and the only thing worth criticizing was the detail of hanging up the phone, but what does this little mean? If the phone is hung up, can't it be that there is a problem with the phone line? Don't answer the phone? It's still a problem with the phone line, so it's not worth making a fuss about!
As for the Guru, as long as the people below do what he tells them to do. He didn't mind sheltering from the wind and rain, not to mention that things weren't big in the first place. It's all Trotsky's own.
"Contact Moscow and ask Andrei why he hung up Trotsky's phone." Lenin casually took Krupskaya's command, and then turned his attention back to the documents on the case. At this moment, he is probably still complaining about Trotsky in his heart - you really don't care about anything, and now the most important thing to be concerned about is the question of peace talks, and you don't think about the key things, but you are entangled in a trivial matter, and I really don't know what is the structure in your head.
If Trotsky could hear this complaint, he would probably be aggrieved, and it was about Ulitsky and the Politburo members, so how could it be a trivial matter? You Lenin just stand and talk without backache, now it is you who have the advantage, of course you are not in a hurry, let's change the two brothers, if it is you, I'm afraid it has already turned the world upside down!
But Trotsky couldn't help it, he was right, Lenin had the advantage, this was his greatest capital, Lenin just didn't have to hurry. Even before he hung up, Lenin had fully expressed what he wanted to say, but Trotsky was not willing to accept it.
The reason why Lenin only said to understand the situation, and did not mention how to deal with it at all, is very clear - that is, cold treatment.
What Lenin means is, I don't care who is right or wrong between you and Li Xiaofeng, this matter is like this, it is impossible for you to go online, and you can rest assured, I will not put you on the platform. To put it bluntly, this kind of trivial matter is not worth mentioning at all, and there is no need to dwell on it.
Would Trotsky be satisfied with this result? If you can't say anything, you are ready to make some small moves, prepare a little tricks, and once Lenin learns the "truth" but does not give him a reasonable explanation, then he will have to take action to defend his authority.
The Mentor must have had more channels of communication with Moscow than Trotsky, and he was also faster than him, and half an hour later, Li Xiaofeng personally called him.
"You're good kid now! I don't take the Politburo members in my eyes anymore, and I dare to hang up Trotsky's phone, am I criticizing you a few words, and you are ready to hang up on my phone! β
Although the mentor has to shield the younger brother from the wind and rain in front of outsiders, when facing the younger brother alone, he still criticizes and must educate what should be educated, and in any case, he still has to maintain the prestige of the Politburo.
"Where's that!" Li Xiaofeng immediately began to complain, "As soon as he came up, he kept talking nonsense, threatening and intimidating, just wanting me to put Ulitsky back, how could I agree." β
Lenin said in his heart: "I know that you Trotsky is uneasy and kind, no wonder you just talked to me in a vague way and played Tai Chi, you boy is harboring evil intentions!" It is useless to know that it is useless to mention Ulitsky directly in the Politburo, so he is ready to start from Andrei and create contradictions and conflicts to achieve his goal, and your trick is enough to damage. β
After learning this, Lenin did not intend to continue to criticize a certain immortal, but just taught him a lesson: "Then you can't hang up his phone, after all, he is a member of the Politburo, even if you respect the Central Committee and me, you can't do this......"
Li Xiaofeng suddenly shouted that he was wronged: "I didn't sincerely hang up his phone, he talked there for half an hour, and I was dizzy." I didn't hang up either. But he has so much nonsense. Just when he was talking nonsense. I suddenly found a major clue to the assassination. Tell me, where do I still have the heart to ink with him, and it's serious to organize people to catch talents, and when I'm happy, I forget that he's still there, and I hang up casually! β
If another person had said this, Lenin could have suspected that it was a bad attitude, and made excuses at will, but the words came out of the mouth of a certain immortal. The mentor immediately believed it, and of course, his old man was more concerned about the case.
"Found the Assassin?" Lenin suddenly aggravated his tone, "Are they coming out again?!" β
"That's not true," Li Xiaofeng laughed, "It's the assassin who participated in the assassination of Ulitsky, and he sent it to the door himself?" We caught you alive! β
"What?!" Lenin couldn't believe his ears, "The assassin turned himself in?" Andrey, this is no joke, don't try to fool me and the center! β
Yes. The Mentor immediately thought that some immortal had just found a few scapegoats, but he didn't believe that the assassin would turn himself in.
"I didn't say the assassin turned himself in!" Li Xiaofeng clicked his mouth. Explained: "The Assassins are the ...... who came to attack the Moskskva Cheka"
"What!" Lenin was surprised again, attacking the Moscow Cheka, this has to be a brainless assassin to do such a thing, you really want us Bolsheviks to be paper tigers, you can do whatever you want, right?
After listening to Li Xiaofeng's description of the situation at that time, Lenin felt that someone's luck was simply too good, and he originally thought that the assassination case of Ulitsky was very tricky, and there was no way to investigate it, who would have thought that the assassin would jump out on his own, what is this? Blind cat meets dead mouse?
"How can you say that!" A certain immortal must have defended himself, "Even if the assassins hadn't jumped out of their own way tonight, we would have caught their fox tails......"
The mentor was curious: "What fox tail?" β
When Lenin heard that it was the portraits described by eyewitnesses that allowed someone to identify the assassins and kill them all first, his old man sighed: "You have done a very good job!" But don't get too complacent, what is happening in Moscow is a clear sign that the imperialists are not content to be able to put up a group of spokesmen to deal with us, and are ready to roll up their sleeves and take it personally. Therefore, when you carry out your work, you must be more careful and cautious, you must be vigilant, and you must not be careless! β
In fact, Li Xiaofeng was also a little afraid, if he hadn't discovered the assassin's traces in advance, if they were allowed to launch an attack according to the plan, the guards downstairs would definitely be caught off guard. Although with him as an immortal, he can still take down this group of assassins, but casualties may not be avoidable.
And once there are casualties, then some guys who have always liked to say strange things are afraid that they will jump up and down again, such as Trotsky, who has just been angry in his hands, this thing is afraid that this thing will be unleashed, saying that the Moscow Cheka was lax in his defense, and was actually attacked by the enemy, which is simply a disgrace to the Bolsheviks and a crime against comrades.
Although there is a mentor, this product may not be able to set off much of a wave, but it is noisy and troublesome! More things are better than less, and if you always trouble the mentor to wipe your ass, his old man will be annoyed, right?
Li Xiaofeng was thinking about how to strengthen the defense of the Moscow Cheka and how to avoid this kind of similar incident from happening again, while the mentor had already changed his words, "Of course, it is necessary to be vigilant and strengthen defense, but now the focus of your work must not be scattered, immediately surprise and interrogate the assassins, you must break through their psychological defenses, you must find the culprit behind the scenes, and you must give an explanation to the central government!" β
Three in a row, it completely shows that the tutor attaches great importance to this, as long as Li Xiaofeng is not brain-dead and convulsive, he should know what to do. In fact, it was even the same, and there was no need for a reminder from the Mentor at all, and the surprise interrogation was going on while he was on the phone with the Mentor.
Trotsky did not know all this, and he stayed by the telephone, waiting for his mentor or Li Xiaofeng to call him personally. He felt that no matter what happened, Lenin would give him an explanation, even if Li Xiaofeng apologized verbally, it could be regarded as giving him face.
However, until the next morning, he did not wait for this so-called statement, there was no phone call and no apology, and even the incident was as if it had never happened.
"Bastard!" Rao had already been mentally prepared before, but Trotsky was still angry, he felt that he had been insulted by Lenin and Li Xiaofeng united, and immediately became furious: "Tell Lunacharsky to arrest the woman named Victoria at once, seal her shop, and arrest all those involved with her!" β
"Isn't that too much? This woman is said to have a good relationship with Andrei, and is one of the sponsors of the party's revolutionary activities, and it is too ...... to arrest her."
"What do you mean by too much movement!" Trotsky slapped the table hard and said angrily: "They have repeatedly troubled us, and they will not allow us to fight back?" I just want them to see that I, Trotsky, am not something anyone can bully! β
"In what name are you arresting people?"
Trotsky snorted and said contemptuously: "That woman's family is in the grain business, and now there is no serious case of grain theft and sale in the strategic reserve warehouse?" Just get her inside! (To be continued......)
PS: Sincere thanks to Comrade Ma Shen Bobo, your support is very powerful!
