021 The Demise of Nohee
Seeing that things were going in the direction he wanted, Nogan was also slightly relieved. What he feared most was that he would be questioned when he returned to Moscow to convey the "Central Instructions", and if such a scene occurred, things would be in trouble.
If he can't complete the tasks assigned by Kamenev and Zinoviev well, then it is obvious that the future will be very difficult.
Come to think of it, Nogan has now completely offended Lenin, and the mentor will definitely find trouble with him in the future, and the small shoes are considered light, and if you don't get it, you will go straight to the end. In such an unfavorable situation, if you can't hold Kamenev and Zinoviev's thighs tightly, but they give up, the end will be extremely sad.
So no matter what, Nogan has to fight a turnaround battle beautifully, let Jia and Ji see their abilities, and by the way, it is also a counterattack and counterattack against the mentor.
Nogan stood on the podium and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, he actually sweated in the cold winter weather, which shows how nervous he was at this time.
Glancing across the audience, Nogan took a deep breath, trying to ease his pounding heart, but his slightly trembling arms betrayed his true feelings.
Vladimirsky in the audience whispered to Pjanitsky beside him: "Nogan's mood doesn't seem quite right. ”
Pjanitsky didn't notice it at first, but at Vladimirsky's prompting, he quickly noticed Nogan's trembling arm as well, and he frowned.
Pjanitsky was one of those who were confused by Nogan's speech, which was completely different from the instructions of the Central Committee in telephone and telegraph. On the question of the uprising, the Central Committee was extremely radical and impatient in telephone and telegram. urged them to hurry up. But here at Nogan. In his mouth. The armed uprising is insignificant. It seemed that Russia was about to follow in the footsteps of Britain and smoothly carry out a glorious revolution.
At first, Pjanitsky thought that he did not understand the spirit of the center thoroughly, but now that he saw Nogan's trembling heart, another possibility came to his mind.
He whispered to Vladimirsky, "Do you think Nogan is misleading us?" We all know what his attitude has always been towards the armed uprising, and his expression is almost the same as before......"
Vladimirsky did not speak rashly, even if he had the same suspicions, but Nogen was the chairman of the Moscow Soviet of Workers' Deputies anyway. It is also the patriarch and the old revolutionary in the party. He should have known all the more about the nature of a false decree. Does he really have the guts?
Vladimirsky was hesitant and hesitant, on the one hand reason told him that Nogen was very problematic, but on the other hand he feared that his suspicions were unreasonable. Just a little doubt and speculation is not enough to negate Nogan. Maybe isn't it nice that Petrograd really had a glorious revolution, as he said, without bloodshed and sacrifices?
There were many people in the venue who were as entangled as Vladimirsky, and everyone was very hesitant, wondering whether to trust Nogan or not. It is not even known how the armed uprising in Moscow should be carried out.
The atmosphere in the venue was eerie, except for the cheering of some guys who had been wearing a pair of pants with Nogan. More people are choosing to wait and see.
At this time, Nogan also stabilized his mood a little, cleared his throat, and continued: "Comrades, in the current good situation, although victory is within reach, we must remain calm. You must not make any drastic moves, so as not to undermine the overall situation. That's why I'm here to advise you all – calm, focused, peaceful. Don't be too radical, the only thing we have to do now is to unite all the efforts of all parties and let the power transfer slowly take one step at a time! ”
There was silence in the venue, and most of the people were smacking the six-character mantra proposed by Nogan, to be honest, they really couldn't touch anything superfluous, and there was only one meaning - don't make a move, wait honestly.
To be honest, not everyone could accept Nogan's six-character mantra, and Pijanitsky could not accept it, but he was more decisive than Vladimirsky, and immediately stood up and asked directly: "Comrade Nogan, many of our comrades have doubts about your statement. According to the instructions of the Central Committee, we should start the uprising immediately, not waiting, let alone negotiating with the enemy. I want to know, where did your instructions come from? Why did it contradict the central telegraph and telephone so much? Could you please explain? ”
Nogan glared at Pjanitsky fiercely, he had always known that it was Pjanitsky and Vladimirsky who would cause him trouble, and sure enough, this damn guy jumped out.
But fortunately, he was prepared, and Kamenev and Zinoviev laid out a lot of plans to help him deal with possible spoilers.
Suddenly, Nogan first smiled contemptuously, and then pretended to be calm and explained: "Comrade Pjanitsky, I have to say that there is really a problem with your ability to understand, and I have no conflict with the instructions of the Central Committee. There are conflicts, it's just that you misunderstand the spirit of the center, that's all! ”
The pro-Nogen opposition in the meeting room immediately burst into laughter, but Pjanitsky was undisturbed and continued to ask: "Then Comrade Nogan, please explain that the Central Committee is telling us to revolt immediately, but what you say calmly, isn't this contrary to the spirit of the Central Committee?" ”
"Superficial!" Nogan pursed his lips contemptuously and said, "Did I say that I would not continue the uprising? How can we deter the enemy without an uprising, and how can we transfer power to the people? The spirit that I convey is intended to guide how to carry out the uprising! Our uprising is a deterrent, like clenching your fist and roaring at the enemy, but not to knock it out! A punch that goes out is not a deterrent! That would turn the uprising into naked bloodshed, and it would turn good things into bad! ”
Nogan's words are somewhat deceptive, and it seems that through his explanation, the spirit of the center is more thorough, and the contradictions and contradictions are completely absent. A part of the wavering party members immediately began to nod. I feel that Nogan really brought the true spirit of the center.
Call!
Nogan exhaled another breath of cloudy air. He looked at Pjanitsky, whose brows were twisted into hemp rope. He felt extremely happy, because he knew that he had won today!
It can only be said that Nogan was too happy too early, and just as he was presenting himself with the championship medal, there was a sudden shrill applause from the direction of the venue gate. What is the harsh thing to say, the main thing is that there is only one person who applauds, and this person is looking at Nogan with a mocking smile.
Damn, how did he suddenly appear!
Nogan's eyes widened on the podium. I gasped, and my heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly jumped wildly.
Nogen was not the only one who noticed Li Xiaofeng's arrival in the venue, but not many people knew him. Everyone was puzzled by the stranger who suddenly jumped out to applaud, and immediately someone asked, "Who are you!" ”
Li Xiaofeng slowly walked to the podium, pretending to be mysterious: "That's a good question. You might as well ask Comrade Nogen, yesterday we were in Comrade Lenin's office, ask him, let him tell you who I am! ”
Everyone's eyes instantly returned to Nogan in the center of the podium, and this sudden pressure made Nogan's heart beat faster. Nogan's hands shook even more. He had to just clench his fists, and then say as calmly as possible: "Comrade Andrei." What a surprise, why did you suddenly come to Moscow, how? You special branch escorted the leading comrades of the Central Committee to Moscow to preside over the work? ”
Now Nogan's greatest fear was that Lenin would send some bigwig to Moscow to preside over the work, in which case their plot would immediately fail, so he had to ask for clarification.
Of course, Li Xiaofeng knew what Lu Dao Nuogen had in mind, but he decided to tease this product well, he shook his head and said, "That's not true." The revolutionary work in Petrograd was in full swing, and the comrades of the Central Committee had their own work and could not come to Moscow to preside over it! ”
Nogan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was no Central Committee-level bigwig coming, he was not afraid. It's just a Li Xiaofeng, he doesn't pay attention to it at all, especially since this is Moscow, he has a huge home advantage.
Nogan raised his head again, looked at Li Xiaofeng condescendingly and domineeringly, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Then what is Comrade Andrei's business in Moscow?" If nothing else, do not bother with the meeting of our Moscow Party Committee. It's not just anyone! ”
Li Xiaofeng didn't like him, he said with a smile: "Originally, I was not interested in coming in, but the Central Committee had no choice but to let me go on this trip." ”
Nogan's eyes immediately narrowed, and he asked in a trembling voice, "The Central Committee sent you?" ”
Li Xiaofeng still smiled and said, "Not exactly. ”
Nogan was a little confused about Li Xiaofeng's intentions, and cautiously tentatively said: "The central government sent you to understand the situation in Moscow?" ”
Li Xiaofeng shrugged: "Not exactly. ”
Nogan was angry, and asked a little angrily: "What kind of attitude do you have, don't play tricks, on behalf of all the comrades in Moscow, I ask you what you are doing in the last place!" ”
Nogan's angry and depraved appearance completely fell in the eyes of everyone in the audience, and many people wondered, Comrade Nogan, what's wrong, in the face of a little hairy child, suddenly his expression changed greatly, as for it?
Of course, there are some people who are more sober, such as Vladimirsky and Pjanitsky, from the moment Nogen revealed Li Xiaofeng's identity, they realized that the situation was not right. Specifically, Nogan's situation is very wrong. If he really conveyed the spirit of the Central Committee truthfully, then this attitude should definitely not be this at this moment.
The two of them looked at each other, and a thought flashed through their hearts at the same time - Nogan really lied!
"Comrade Nogan, your mood is very wrong!" Li Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "Is it the sequelae of yesterday's coma?" Comrade Lenin was very concerned about your health, and yesterday he sent me to the hospital to learn about your condition. I had no choice but to go to Moscow! ”
Nogan's face was blue and red, especially when Li Xiaofeng mentioned the coma, his breathing suddenly became much heavier. The people in the audience were a little baffled, although the facts stated by Li Xiaofeng seemed to indicate that Noggen was ill and that Lenin had sent someone to express his concern. But that tone sounded sarcastic. What's going on?
The smarter kind of people in the audience obviously smelled the danger signals. Hurriedly sat down and didn't say a word, and those henchmen of Nogan and some of the simple-minded guys were impatient, and jumped out one by one and shouted:
"If you have something to say, let it go, if you have nothing to do, you can leave quickly, don't disturb our meeting!"
"yes, get out of here. This is not a place for little hairy children to play at home! ”
Li Xiaofeng didn't care about these noises at all, he still said with a smile: "I don't want to come either." But the Central Committee, as well as Comrade Lenin, were eager to ask Comrade Noggen for clarification...... Comrade Nogan, you said yesterday that the comrades in Moscow entrusted you to Petrograd. On their behalf, what are the specific opinions of the central authorities? By the way, it was the comrades in Moscow who opposed an armed uprising and demanded negotiations with the former reactionary government headed by Kerensky? ”
Speaking of this, Li Xiaofeng suddenly turned to the crowd in the audience and continued to ask: "Now is the right time, since the comrades in Moscow are here, you can solve the doubts for me, for Comrade Lenin, and for all the comrades of the Central Committee. Whether. You have entrusted Comrade Nogan with this mission? With that, he glanced at Nogan. He said sarcastically: "You know, when this question was asked yesterday in Comrade Lenin's office, Comrade Nogen was so excited that he fainted. Comrade Lenin had hoped that Comrade Noggen would wake up and explain the problem to the Central Committee in detail, but when he sent me to the hospital to invite him, Comrade Nogen left without saying goodbye. ”
With a coax, the pot exploded in the venue, and now everyone understood that why did Nogan change his face as soon as he saw someone just now, and his feelings are like this! In an instant, almost everyone's eyes were once again focused on Nogan, who was like a thief locked by a searchlight in the night, and not only his hands, but also his legs began to tremble.
After a long time, Nogan's Adam's apple moved, and he knew that he had to do something, and if he didn't defend himself, then it would really be all over. In an instant, he rushed to the front of the stage, and the cuckoo screamed like blood: "Comrades, don't listen to his nonsense!" It's all a lie, a lie he made up! I came to Moscow on the commission of the Central Committee......"
Before he finished his words, Li Xiaofeng burst out laughing: "That's a coincidence!" As he spoke, he took out several documents from the briefcase in his hand and handed them to Pjanitsky and Vladimirsky in the audience, "Here is a letter of introduction from the Central Committee of the Bolsheviks and the Presidium of the All-Russian Soviet of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies, Comrade Lenin sent me to Moscow to convey the spirit of the Central Committee and to set up a liaison office between the Central Committee and the Moscow Party Committee. ”
Nogan's eyes were about to bulge out, and he wanted to rush up immediately to tear the letter of introduction to shreds, but the two special science guards who came in with Li Xiaofeng immediately stopped him.
"The letter of introduction and the letter of appointment are genuine!" Vladimirsky's tone was unusually heavy when he said this, especially when he raised his head to look at Nogan at the last time, and his feelings were extremely complicated.
Disappointment, sadness, anger, three emotions are mixed together, and the taste is really difficult to explain.
"It's true!"
When Pjanitsky came to the same conclusion, there was an uproar in the room, and everyone did not believe that the old revolutionary Nogen could do such a stupid thing.
"Comrades, listen to me!" Nogan almost hysterically shouted on stage, "I'm all for the revolution!" It's all for the party! Comrades, we must come to our senses and not continue on the wrong path, that is a dead end, that is ......"
"Shut up! You traitor! Li Xiaofeng shouted, changed the smile he had just now, and said very seriously: "You need to be sober!" You're on the road to death! Comrades, on behalf of the Party Central Committee, I would like to convey to you the great news that yesterday the bourgeois Provisional Government had been overthrown, and Kerensky and his puppet ministers had all been arrested...... After discussion among the Central Executive Committee of the Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies, it was unanimously decided to create a new Council of People's Commissars, and Comrade Lenin was elected chairman of the Council of People's Commissars! ”
The applause rang out, and Li Xiaofeng had to signal again and again to make the venue quiet again.
He continued: "Now that the revolution has reached a critical moment, the victory in Petrograd is only the beginning, and the people of the whole country are watching the development of the revolution. And Moscow, as another huge center of the revolution, must shoulder its responsibilities and obligations! Comrades, there is no such thing as a glorious revolution in Russia, our enemies are in full swing with a series of conspiracies, trying to stifle the flames of revolution in Moscow! In this situation, we can't wait, we must act now! ”
There was another noise in the conference room, and after heated discussions, with the support of Vladimirsky and Pjanitsky, it was difficult to agree to hold an armed uprising in response to Petrograd.
"Immediately convene a Congress of Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies and a Revolutionary Military Council to draw up plans and goals for the uprising!" Vladimirsky and Pjanitsky methodically gave orders.
Just when everyone's attention was drawn to them, Nogan hid in the corner, cowering and ready to slip away, and just as he slipped to the door to escape, the Tekko guards who had been waiting at the door blocked his way.
"What are you going to do!" Nogan let out a scream that regained everyone's attention, and he angrily accused, "This is illegal detention, you have no right to arrest me!" (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
