Not surprisingly, the new People's Commissar of the Navy was Trotsky, who was still too young compared to the old Toll, and in the counter-revolutionary cases of Dembinko and Kollentai, Stalin's expression was too ambiguous.

If the "peaceful settlement" plan had been adopted at that time, Stalin might have reaped a lot of political benefits, but the strong intervention of a certain immortal had mixed up all the good things of steel. After Korentai and Debinko were characterized as counter-revolutionaries, it was inevitable that a hard-line representative would have to clean up the mess of the Baltic Fleet. From this point of view, Trotsky was much more appropriate.

Trotsky arrived in Petrograd late at night, and Zinoviev and Kalinin personally met him at the station. The three of them had a brief exchange of words on the platform of the station.

"Comrade Trotsky, you must go and stop Andrei at once. Petrovich's atrocities! "As soon as the pie face came up, he sued.

In fact, he couldn't wait, and since April 1917, he has been fighting with a certain immortal for a long time. And now a certain immortal is even more arrogant than he was at the beginning, and he still doesn't take him seriously, which makes the big pie face quite resentful.

He felt that Trotsky, who was a moderate compared to Lenin, was not as radical as his mentor, and that a small report to him accusing someone of persecuting a comrade from another socialist party should have a certain effect, and that no matter how he said it, he would be able to get someone to be scolded.

Trotsky really did not expect Zinoviev to talk about this question in the first place, and he did not care at all about it, because the Social Revolutionaries, whether left or right, were already yesterday's errands. What do you care about them?

Again. This time in the incident. The role played by the Social Revolutionaries was rather dishonorable. What's not to say about cleaning them up? Even Trotsky slandered: "Who end of the hell are you boy, and how can you speak for outsiders?" ”

It is a pity that Zinoviev did not notice Trotsky's impatience, he regarded himself too much as a figure, and thought that he was also the president of the Comintern, and that he was half a pound and a tael with Trotsky. How could Trotsky be indifferent to such a "solemn" reaction to the question?

So, the thing continued to gush: "Andrey. The behavior of Comrade Petrovich is simply outrageous. His Cheka is all over the city, no! He carried out a large-scale manhunt throughout the state, arrested people indiscriminately, and threw some old friends and comrades who had contributed to the October Revolution into Peter and Paul Prison...... The most infuriating thing is that he still did not listen to the correct opinions of other comrades in the slightest, and he was stubborn and insisted on going his own way......"

Zinoviev poured out all the bitter water that had been accumulated for more than a year in one go, and saw that the posture would not make a stink and bring down a certain immortal, and he would not give up. But he didn't notice that Trotsky was getting impatient, and Kalinin was quietly pulling a few steps away from him.

Trotsky glanced at Zinoviev. Ignoring him, he turned to Kalinin, who was "drawing a line" with the pie face. "Comrade Mikhail, do you agree with Comrade Gregory?" ”

Unanimously your sister!

Kalinin complained in his heart, he is not a fool, not to mention that a certain immortal is Sverdlov's sworn friend, a popular man next to Comrade Lenin, and he is young and ambitious, and his methods are incomparably spicy. Isn't it brain-dead to open up such a political star and potential stock!

Of course, it doesn't matter if you are brain-dead, as long as you have good eyes, you will know what to do. Nima, Trotsky, your expression and attitude have already made it clear. I was stupid to carry the thunder with the pie face.

Suddenly, Kalinin shook his head and said: "I think Comrade Gregory's views are too extreme, and Petrograd, which has just experienced a turmoil, needs to use red violence to deter those restless counter-revolutionaries...... Although Comrade Andrei made many arrests, I think that they were generally just. Do extraordinary times require extraordinary means? ”

Zinoviev wanted to scold his mother, but before Gary would rather not have this attitude, he showed a certain amount of worry and worry about someone's behavior of ignoring the indiscriminate arrest. It is precisely when he sees that the good people are not pleasing to the eye, that the big pie face dares to sue categorically. Who would have thought that he would be pitted!

Suddenly, the goods were anxious, "Comrade Mikhail, you didn't have this attitude before!" You are not also about Andrey. Is Petrovich's action worried! How to ......"

Kalinin replied with an unchanging face: "I am worried about a certain amount of concern, but it is because I am worried that Comrade Andrei will act too violently and may provoke a backlash and retaliation from the enemy, and I am worried about his personal safety...... How can we put everything on the shoulders of a small comrade? We, the old bones, should also be more proactive, and in this struggle, we must play the role of the forerunner of the revolution...... I have always stressed to you that you should listen to Comrade Andrei's opinion, because these young people are the future of the revolution! ”

Zinoviev's face was about to turn green, and he kept greeting Kalinin's ancestors in his heart, you are a wall grass, if you like to hold stinky feet, then hold it, what does it mean to smash Lao Tzu? Lao Tzu has offended you, you!

Zinoviev just doesn't have a good memory, he did offend Kalinin, and when Koluntai made trouble, he pushed Kalinin into the fire pit and made it so miserable for the good old man. And although Kalinin is a good old man, although he likes to be with mud, it does not mean that he has no temper, and it does not mean that he does not know how to fight.

An honest man like him is not an ordinary grudge, once he finds an opportunity, he will really put people to death. Now, for example, when Trotsky arrived, Kalinin immediately realized that the Central Committee had reached a consensus on the events and had a comprehensive plan for dealing with them. Although he did not know the specific details, Trotsky's attitude was already clear.

At this time, Kalinin was probably laughing at Zinoviev: "Pie-faced, you are stupid, you really can't recognize the shape, don't you see the impatience engraved in Trotsky's head, don't you see that he walks with a bloody wind?" No wonder you drove high and low last year, and the more you mixed up, the more you went back, your eyes are not even as good as corns! ”

Zinoviev seems to want to continue the lawsuit. But Trotsky was already impatient. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he stopped him from speaking. "The Politburo has reached a unified consensus on this reactionary riot...... Dembinko and Kollontai, instigated and instigated by the left-wing counter-revolutionaries of the Socialist-Revolutionaries, finally embarked on the road of betraying the people and making them enemies...... The Central Committee called on all Bolsheviks to resolutely fight against the leftist counter-revolutionaries of the Socialist-Revolutionary Party and to exterminate them quickly and completely! ”

Trotsky's passage does not mention a certain immortal in a single word, but the meaning is quite clear, and it is tantamount to a complete affirmation of what a certain immortal has done, if it is a little more explicit. It's tantamount to applauding a certain immortal!

Of course, Trotsky would not have praised Li Xiaofeng in public, even if a certain immortal did a good job, it would not be possible. A hill is a hill, and Trotsky publicly praised the backbone of Lenin's faction, and he really couldn't afford to lose that man.

However, there is no positive praise, which does not mean that the praise on the side or side notes does not exist. Just like this, to deny Korentai and Dembinko, and to put the Left wing of the Social Revolutionary Party on the target of the gun, is tantamount to affirming and praising a certain immortal.

Zinoviev is no matter how stupid he is. Knowing the attitude of Trotsky and the Politburo, his face suddenly turned to ashes. It's like a defeated rooster. It's cool to see Kalinin!

However, Trotsky did not continue to humiliate Zinoviev, what is the point of killing a dog? It seems that he has no heart and no courage. Besides, in the political arena, unless you can beat someone to death at once, so that he will never be able to turn over, then you can be unbridled and humiliated.

But although Zinoviev is wasted and marginalized, he is swaying like a tumbler and can still stand. There is no need to offend such a freak for an outsider, maybe everyone will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!

So Trotsky quickly changed the subject and asked: "What is the state of Kronstadt?" Is the sailor's love still stable? ”

Zinoviev really did not want to answer this question, because because of some of his actions, the Kronstadt sailors did not like him at all, and the negotiators sent were bombarded back by the sailors.

This thing could only reply stubbornly: "For the time being, Kronstadt has a qiē stable dìng, and the feelings of the sailors are quite restrained......

Trotsky did not believe him, for the simple reason that the tone of his voice sounded weak, and he looked evasive, which would be strange if there were no ghosts in his heart.

So, he turned to Kalinin: "Is that so?" ”

At this moment, Zinoviev was really ashamed to death, and it seemed to him that Trotsky's question was too a slap in the face. This is a clear indication that you don't believe him! You are too unsophisticated, no matter what Lao Tzu says, he is the chairman of the Comintern, even if you don't believe me, don't ask me face to face. When I'm not there, it doesn't matter how you ask. People live with a face and a tree lives with a skin, you are really too deceitful!

Trotsky thinks that Zinoviev is too deceitful, you are so daring, lying in front of me, what kind of attitude do you have, this shows that you don't take Trotsky in your eyes at all, and think that you can fool Lao Tzu at will. Nima, this is the first time you slapped Lao Tzu in the face, Lao Tzu just fought back.

Why this interesting situation? The main reason is that Zinoviev is not accurate enough about his positioning. He thought that this was before the October Revolution and that he was on a similar footing with Trotsky. Subconsciously, I thought that even if I fooled Trotsky, there would be no problem.

But this thing didn't think about it at all, now it was no longer what it used to be, he had stepped aside, it wasn't for the tutor who took pity on him, and gave him a position as president of the Comintern, he was nothing. I still want to be on an equal footing with Trotsky, I simply don't know whether to live or die.

Naturally, this meeting at the train station was not productive, or even unpleasant. After sending away the annoying Zinoviev, Trotsky decided to meet a certain immortal first. With what he knew about someone, that kid would have prepared in advance.

"What's really going on in Kronstadt?" Faced with Trotsky's question, a certain immortal smiled bitterly and then asked: "How did Comrade Gregory sue you?" ”

Trotsky said quietly: "He said that the situation is very good and steady!" ”

Li Xiaofeng smiled, laughing so much that Trotsky was a little hairy, and he asked, "Isn't that so?" ”

"It's true," Li Xiaofeng sneered, "a large number of sailors are engaged in counter-revolutionary activities. If not, there is still a part of the commissars who are trying to maintain order as much as possible. Otherwise, the world will be in chaos! ”

Trotsky gasped. Before he came, he had thought that the situation in Kronstadt would not be good, but he really didn't expect it to be so bad. It seems that this People's Commissar of the Navy is really not so easy to be.

He asked, "Is it really that bad?" ”

Li Xiaofeng sighed and said, "If you come a few days late, maybe it will be even worse, maybe the sailors have already risen up!" ”

Trotsky gasped again, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly asked: "Did you take any measures before that?" ”

"Yes!" The sarcasm in Li Xiaofeng's tone became more and more serious, "Comrade Gregory. tirelessly send people to do the work of persuasion, all in the hope of convincing them. ”

Trotsky did not feel that there was anything wrong with this response, much less that it needed to be sarcastic, and asked with some incomprehension: "Do you want the effect?" ”

"The effect is definitely not ideal," Li Xiaofeng sighed and explained, "The most important problem is that his approach is more like provoking the sailors." ”

"How?"

Li Xiaofeng glanced at Trotsky and sighed: "In order to do a better ideological work for the sailors, and to let them understand how important the Central Committee is to them." While insisting on peace talks, Comrade Grigory also adopted some rather special measures. ”

Trotsky raised an eyebrow. He felt that it was probably the methods taken by the big pie face that were doing bad things, and quickly asked, "What means?" ”

The sneer on Li Xiaofeng's face became even stronger. He replied disdainfully: "Comrade Grigory cut off the supply to Kronstadt, there is no fresh water, no food, nothing!" ”

Trotsky was stunned, and could not imagine that Zinoviev had done this, what kind of trouble was this Nima, if you want to negotiate a peaceful solution, you can't cut off the supply. Do you think that no water and no food will make the sailors give in or give in in the negotiations? You're doing a bad thing! In the eyes of the sailors, you are just insincere, you are provoking!

Suddenly Trotsky jumped up and said angrily: "Why don't you stop him!" This is adding fuel to the fire! ”

Li Xiaofeng spread his hands and asked rhetorically: "How can I stop him, one of them is the chairman of the state Soviet government, and the other is the secretary of the state party committee." Can I command them? ”

Trotsky immediately ceased to speak, and after the initial relocation of the capital, Lenin and him fought again over Petrograd, an important revolutionary centre, and the result was a compromise that allowed the good old and the marginal, who had a poor sense of existence, to temporarily take charge of the overall situation in Petrograd.

It is equivalent to putting aside the controversy first, and it seems that no one has anything to lose. And now it seems that it is really not a good thing to let two guys who are not responsible come together. If you don't pay attention, it will cause a catastrophe!

After pondering for a moment, Trotsky gave the order directly by telephone: "Restore the supply of Kronstadt at once...... To apologize to the comrades of the sailors, it is a misunderstanding that a certain part of the comrades mistakenly comprehended the spirit of the Central Committee...... Yes, and I would like to bring a message to the comrades of the sailors that I will personally hold talks with them......"

Even Li Xiaofeng had to admit that, compared to Trotsky, Zinoviev was simply a villain, to be exact, a villain without seeds. No one is afraid of risks and dares to take risks with his own life, you are just a nominal chairman of the Comintern, what kind of stinky shelf are you putting on!

In fact, it was not only the supply problem that angered the sailors, who had always demanded negotiations with the Soviets, and an interview with the chairman of the Zinoviev Oblast Soviet. However, this cargo was timid and afraid of death, and repeatedly stressed that the sailors must first lay down their weapons and leave the Kronstadt base, otherwise there would be no possibility of an interview.

At that time, he talked to Kalinin well, but he was worn out, and he refused to go to this goods, which made the sailor's patience wear out little by little, and the situation became more and more out of control.

Of course, Trotsky was not stupid and bold, he also understood the truth that the son of a daughter could not sit down, and he would not go to Kronstadt stupidly, but decided to meet the representatives of the sailors on the docks in Petrograd.

Li Xiaofeng didn't know how to talk to the sailors about this goods, but in terms of results, it was not bad, at least the sailors' representatives had a smile on their faces when they returned to Kronstadt, which showed that Lao Tuo made them more satisfied.

"The demand of the sailors is that those who did not participate in the Petrograd riots are not implicated and held accountable...... Ensure their safety and dignity...... Let them continue to serve in the Red Navy......"

The conditions offered by the sailors were not particularly harsh, at least not because the lion opened his mouth to demand the release of Debinko and Kolentai. Trotsky found it acceptable, but Li Xiaofeng had doubts.

"It is understandable that people who did not participate in the riots will not be held accountable. Guaranteeing their life and dignity is also acceptable. But let them continue to serve in the Red Navy, I have doubts! ”

Trotsky glanced at him and calmly asked: "What doubts?" ”

Although the sailors who remained in Kronstadt did not take part in the uprising in Petrograd, after the situation had subsided, they refused to accept the orders of the central government and chose to continue to express their opinions in a troublesome manner...... Is such behavior tolerable? If every time in the future, they are slightly unsatisfactory and slightly instigated, they will gather together to make trouble, what is the use of keeping them? ”

Li Xiaofeng said calmly and forcefully: "We cannot tolerate the navy being beyond the party's command, and we must use military discipline and national law to restrain their behavior, otherwise, in the long run, the root cause of the curse will still not be eliminated, and once it breaks out again, I am afraid it will not be as easy to solve as it is today!" (To be continued......)
