    August 1, 1918, 14:05, Moscow, Soviet Russia, Kremlin, large conference room

    "We can't agree!" Zinoviev and Bubnov said in unison, "Our decisive battle with Kolchak is imminent. If we offend the Volga Federation and the Allied Eastern Front at this time, once the other side tears up the "Samara Peace Treaty"  "By crossing the river and marching westward, wouldn't we fall short? The Germans themselves were defeated in Kharkov. How can we expect that the Germans, who cannot save Ukraine, will be free to rescue Soviet Russia?"

    Zinoviev's words always hit the mark. As soon as he said these words, the entire Central Committee members in the conference room nodded secretly. Only the little leader Ulyanov scratched his bald forehead and said, "That's what I mean.  That¡¯s right, but if they offend the Germans and cut off food and arms support, including the repatriation of prisoners of war, will the Soviets still have the confidence to destroy Kolchak¡¯s White Guards?¡±

    As soon as Ulyanov said this, the opinions that originally supported Zinoviev in the conference room suddenly became quiet again. Bukharin stood up and shouted, "Comrade Chairman is right, the Volga Federation is only willing to export to us."  Oil and fuel are of little use, but the Germans supply us with food, weapons, ammunition, and artillery. Once they offend the Germans and cut off the supply of supplies, how long can Moscow and the Soviets hold on? Unless they can find new allies, they will immediately die.  We are facing a life-and-death crisis!"

    "How about how about putting it off? Neither agreeing nor not agreeing, just saying that we need time to discuss and study. Anyway, the Germans have suffered a defeat in Ukraine. Maybe the other party will  That is to say, if the coalition forces continue to attack in the direction of Kharkov, I suspect that the German army in Kiev may not be able to spare enough troops on the northern front to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao. Zinoviev, do the Chinese have it?  Is this an allusion to surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao?¡±

    The speaker was Sverdlov, who had never been very angry. He is now the most popular and powerful faction in the entire Soviet Central Committee in the post-Joseph era. The Volga Military District and the Front Army are both under the direct control and command of his commander.  Under the command, Dzerzhinsky's Cheka work also had to be reported to him, the Vice Chairman of the Supreme Military Council. This guy was also the Secretariat member of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union and a member of the Politburo. He also served as the People's Commissar of the Organization.  It is no exaggeration to describe Sverdlov in August 1918 as "high and powerful".

    "If you drag it on blindly, you will offend both sides. Besides, if the Germans in the triangle area where Soviet Russia, the Volga Federation and Ukraine meet directly cross the border by train, will the local Soviet Russian Red Army troops on the border intercept it or not? The Germans are not  Those who are willing to be reasonable rely on their strength to do whatever they want on the Eastern Front. We suffered a big loss when we negotiated the Brest-Litovsk Peace Treaty!" People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Chiche Lin Youyou said!  .

    "Or? How about joining the Allies?! While the Germans were being beaten up by the Chinese king in Ukraine, let's not maintain any bullshit nominal neutrality. Since the Germans can't beat the Chinese in Ukraine  , we can¡¯t continue to cling to the Allies¡¯ legs, it¡¯s time to assess the situation and consider a way out. I think joining the Allies has at least two benefits. The first is to gain the support of the Chinese King and the Volga Federation, and the second is to give Kolchak  It sounded the death knell. Thirdly, Russia was originally a member of the Allied Powers. There is no need to talk about doctrine at this time. Mr. Soviet will survive and find other ideas!"

    The shocking words were spoken by Trotsky, the second most powerful person in the Central Committee of the Soviet Union and Chairman of the Supreme Military Council of the Soviet Union. This leader¡¯s hatred for the Germans was clearly revealed when he negotiated the Brest-Litovsk Peace Treaty. Russia was originally  The most important member of the Allied Powers, especially after the United States and the Sino-Japanese Alliance joined the war, Trotsky's judgment was that the decline of the German-Austrian Allies was inevitable. The United States was the most powerful industrial country in the world and had the potential for war and mobilization.  It is so huge that the Americans are not yet on their own. The Sino-Japanese alliance supported by the United States and Britain alone has made the Germans disgraced in Ukraine

    Trotsky's words actually expressed the thoughts of many members of the Soviet Central Committee. After these people experienced the exile and revolution in Tsarist Russia, although they shouted slogans and doctrines, only God knows what they were thinking in their hearts.  Otherwise, I would not have risked the world and ceded so much land resources and population in order to cease the war with Germany

    But don¡¯t forget that it was the Germans who quietly sent the little leader Ulyanov back to his country to lead the Bolshevik revolution that overthrew Tsarist Russia. Ulyanov did not have the same feelings for the Allies as Trotsky did. Besides,  Well, the Eastern Front Allied Forces of the Allied Powers now occupy almost half of the Soviet Russian territory west of the Ural Mountains. If the Far East, Lake Baikal region and Western Siberia are included, the Russian territory snatched by the King of China is vaster than that snatched by the German and Austrian Allies.  Much more!

    ????????? If the Joseph incident is a reflection of the mountain-headism within the Soviet Russian Party and the relationship between local and centralIf there is a dispute between Trotsky and Ulyanov, then the dispute between Trotsky and Ulyanov is between relying on the Allies or the Entente. It is a typical battle between lineism and goes beyond the struggle for power. In fact, it depends on where the Soviet regime will go.  Can you choose the right allies?  Of course, it still depends on whether Soviet Russia can temporarily abandon Bolshevism and class struggle. The big killer weapon released from Pandora's box is a thing that can kill 1,000 enemies and cause 800 or even 1,200 losses to itself.

    When Ulyanov heard this, his face turned ugly. He walked around in the conference room with his hands behind his back without saying a word. At this time, Bukharin jumped out again and shouted, "Trotsky was captured by the Volga Federation and China."  People are blinded by their propaganda. The Allied Powers are all old and new imperialist bourgeoisie. They are absolutely no match for our Soviet proletariat. It is a daydream to expect them to give up the Kolchak regime and support us. Now the "Sama"  "The Peace Treaty" is nothing more than a delaying tactic between Soviet Russia and the Volga Federation!"

    It cannot be said that Bukharin is an uneducated guy. After all, this guy is a top student in the Journalism Department of Moscow State University, a member of the Press and Propaganda Committee of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, a pen writer, and the editor-in-chief of Pravda. When his mind is clear, he has no vision and opinions.  Big mistake. In Bukharin's view, Comrade Ulyanov would not part ways with the Germans, and the Allies' hatred of the new proletariat was no less than that of the Allies, so appeasement and peace with the Allies could only be  This is an expedient measure, but the two sides will inevitably have to fight each other in the future!
