Chapter 371: Assassination
It is not possible to change the country by one or two decrees, or by a few initiatives.
Drake realized this after substantively learning about the recent situation in this country, and the individual is relatively powerless in the situation, in the rolling tide of the times.
The power of the individual cannot change the overall trend, and the negative example "Voldemort" cited by Erha vividly reflects this.
Voldemort's political slogan was to restore the glory of pure-blood wizards, but the wizarding society he lived in was one in which pure-bloods were scarce, and wizards were mostly mixed with human Muggles.
In this social context, Voldemort's political demands are equivalent to asking for restoration and getting an emperor out in modern society, which will naturally be opposed by the majority.
Even if for a while, most people will be silent and silent about his actions because of violent coercion, but this does not mean that these silent majority will never resist.
Voldemort didn't know that the reason why no one fought back against him in the early stage was only because of ...... You have not violated their substantive interests.
And the same is true for the current USSR, so why did it become like this?
Although Drake has thoughts beyond ordinary people, he does not have the wisdom to transcend historical patterns.
But at this moment, a flash of light flashed in his mind, as if something had invisibly affected his thoughts.
It was almost an apocalypse, an oracle, and countless messages poured into his brain.
β¦β¦ In March 1985, Chernenko died of illness and Gorbachev came to power.
On January 15, 1986, Gorbachev issued a statement on the complete elimination of nuclear weapons in three stages over the next 15 years, in which he also put forward a new guiding ideology for the Soviet Union's foreign policy -- "new political thinking."
At that time, a major accident occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, 130 kilometers from Kiev, the capital of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, that spilled radioactive materials.
In 1989, the situation changed again, and the communist regimes in Eastern European countries collapsed one after another.
The governments of the Soviet republics also followed the example of the Eastern European countries and attempted to become independent from the Soviet Union.
On August 19, 1991, the conservative wing of the CPSU staged an unsuccessful coup d'Γ©tat in an attempt to reclaim the powers delegated to the union republics and at the same time put an end to the unsuccessful economic reforms. But with the joint opposition of the people, the army and the majority of CPSU members, the coup d'Γ©tat lasted only 3 days and failed. On August 24, Ukraine, the second largest republic of the Soviet Union, declared independence.
Russian President Boris Yeltsin ordered the declaration of the CPSU as an illegal organization and restrictions on its activities on the territory of the USSR.
At the end of the year, Yeltsin signed a contract with the presidents of Belarus and Ukraine in Minsk, the capital of Belarus, to form the Commonwealth of Independent States to replace the Soviet Union with a structure similar to the British Commonwealth.
In the same year, on December 25, at 19:25 p.m., Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev announced his resignation and transferred state power to the Russian president. At 19:32, the Soviet flag, which had been flying over the Kremlin for more than 70 years, fell.
A large number of images and images are transmitted from nothingness and received by Drake's conscious subjects.
No, this is not pure information, this is the torrent of history.
Before his eyes, he saw images frozen in motion like a film roll, with tens of thousands of people taking to the streets, chanting slogans of oil and boiling, and advancing towards the government building.
He also saw the statue of Lenin, who had been praised as a great leader, torn down, divided and hung up, and destroyed one after another.
He also saw unbridled inflation, 80 per cent of the population entering poverty, and millions of poor people living on the streets......
Countless huge pieces of information, accompanied by the red flag that has been flying over the Kremlin for more than 70 years, landed with the sighs of countless people......
The vast amount of information allowed Drake to see the course of history at this moment, and he gradually understood the future trend, one of the two poles of the world will be broken in the next few years, and the earth has spent nearly twenty years in the "glory" of the unipolar world. It was not until the industrial capacity of the East surpassed that of the West that the fragile equilibrium was once again established.
But these have nothing to do with oneself.
Drake was neither merciful nor moved. He only understood one thing, he had grasped the pulse of the times.
"This should be the inspiration given by 'it', does this represent the future development situation?"
After Drake carefully digested the content, a great urge welled up in his heart.
Yes, maybe a single individual can't change the entire era, but if it is an infinite number of individuals, they can drive the pulse of the times, and I, who know the future changes, can pry the whole world like the fulcrum of the lever.
"I've probably figured it out......"
An unfathomable smile crossed Drake's face.
"What should I do next?"
ββββββββ
Bang!
With the sound of violent explosions, an explosion occurred in the office building of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee in the fierce flames, and the entire floor was destroyed into a huge hole, and flames, dust, and smoke engulfed most of the floor.
It was a terrible explosion and a catastrophe.
The members of the city party committee, including 30 staff members, including Yeltsin, the first secretary of the Moscow city party committee, died on the spot.
The explosions on the remaining floors also caused minor injuries to nearly 70 people.
The fire brigade and military police who heard the news surrounded the scene and began to investigate.
It is conceivable that they will inevitably get nothing.
"In this way, it can be regarded as pulling out a hidden nail in the future."
Drake exhaled, unexpectedly cold in Moscow this winter, wearing a heavy coat, thinking about his next move.
He did pull out a nail now, but that doesn't mean the whole problem can be solved.
That's right, those who were demagogized followed Yeltsin and finally let this red empire of 22 million square kilometers and 5 million troops come to an end; But in the end, they found that the problem had not changed at all, that the magnates were still the magnates, that they had just changed from members of the original party to oligarchs and new bureaucrats, that the rich were getting richer and the poor were getting older, that the gap between the rich and the poor in society was getting wider and wider, and that the already pitiful welfare of the past had disappeared in exchange for worthless votes.
Think about it, who is the person who caused this catastrophe, the clown named Yeltsin, no, in fact, the stupid people themselves.
The general mentality of a country's citizens can be seen from the leadership of a country.
A group of short-sighted people can only push out one short-sighted person to act as a leader.
Dealing with a clown can never ease the situation, Drake has a series of goals, he intends to use his own strength, step by step to hold the throne of power, only in this way, he can achieve his own goals, forge a world without mistakes.
