058 Dzerzhinsky's choice

What about Stalin's proposal? It seems to others to be good, showing respect for Comrade Lenin and avoiding the "bad" image that "excessive" remarks may cause, and it is a good way to get the best of both worlds.

However, neither Kamenev nor Dzerzhinsky were satisfied with this suggestion, and in Kamenev's view, Stalin was his younger brother and should be on his side as a matter of course, although he knew that his idea of publishing part first and then part of it was in his own direction, but this was still quite far from the one-sided support that Kamenev imagined. What is he concerned about this matter, it is nothing more than to establish his authority in the party, and even his younger brother has an unstable position, how can he suppress those opponents?

And the reason for Dzerzhinsky's dissatisfaction is even simpler, because he has full insight into Stalin's extraneous voices. On the surface, Stalin's proposal took care of both emotions, but in reality? Publication separately would mean operating on "Letters from Far Away", and Kamenev would definitely have emasculated the radical ideas in "Letters", when such an emasculated thing could still represent Lenin's opinion? Wouldn't it be even worse if "Letter" had become lukewarm, or had become something that sold dog meat on a sheep's head?

In Dzerzhinsky's opinion, this proposal of Stalin was worse and more insidious than Kamenev's, so he categorically disagreed: "This is nonsense!" An article is like a person, a person is chopped up and put together, is it still the same person? Is it still Comrade Lenin's idea to simply and crudely cut an article and piece it together according to our understanding? I'm adamantly against that! ”

Kamenev suddenly came to his senses, it seems that Stalin's ideas are more beneficial to him, even if he can't really distort Lenin's opinions, delete all of Lenin's radical ideas and publish them, it will definitely make those radicals bother to guess what Lenin meant, as long as these guys are quiet, it is not easy to control the situation by their own means?

Thinking of this, Kamenev couldn't help but glance at Stalin, who had returned to his wooden appearance, he didn't expect this guy to have such a little cleverness, no wonder Lenin wanted to nominate this junior in the party as a member of the Central Committee, and there was really no fool who could get into Lenin's eyes.

Of course, Stalin didn't know that his fate had been rewritten in the battle between the two bigwigs, to be honest, he really didn't think so deeply, his original intention was really to offend both sides with the mud, to engage in Lenin's ghost, and now he really doesn't have the courage to do so.

But whether Stalin wanted to say it or not, saying what he said was pouring water, and no matter how innocent he was, he was tied to Kamenev's chariot. Comrade Shishi, who has figured it out, of course, should vigorously support it: "I don't think so, Comrade Stalin's proposal is the only feasible and the only proposal that can avoid intensifying contradictions and maintain unity. I think that either we will not publish the "Letters", or we will selectively publish the "Letters" in batches, and you can only choose one of the two! ”

None of you here are fools, you can hear the key points of Kamenev's language, "not publicize" in the front and "publish in batches" in the back, naturally support the publication in batches, if you drop one by one, then the meaning is diametrically opposite, what is the art of language, this is called the art of language!

On the surface, Kamenev is asking everyone to do multiple-choice questions, but in fact he has already given his own answer, as for how the people here will choose, as long as they can count, they will understand. Two of the three bosses have already agreed that the minority obeys the majority, and naturally Kamenev wins.

Although Dzerzhinsky was very dissatisfied with this result, democracy within the party still had to be stressed, and as a principled person, he could only accept it, although at the end of the day he expressed his resolute opposition to this result and refused to participate in the abridgement of the "Letter." …,

In fact, Dzerzhinsky lost at the beginning of this matchup, Kamenev and S

No matter what Dalin says, it's two to one, and he can't have the upper hand. It was impossible for him to reject Kamenev's claims and then immediately reject Stalin's opinion. Moreover, Stalin's suggestion seemed to be a concession and a maintenance of unity, which could easily confuse those who did not think deeply, and they would naturally choose a proposal that would not offend the two bigwigs.

Dzerzhinsky was gone, Kamenev had won, he had won so thoroughly that he had finally established himself as an authority in Pravda, and he could not only make drastic changes to the letter, but also set the tone for Pravda as he envisioned. Satisfied, he was confident that under his leadership the Bolsheviks would open a new chapter......

Kamenev was a little overjoyed, Dzerzhinsky was not the kind of person who collapsed when he encountered setbacks, he was much more resolute than Kamenev after spending half his life in exile and prison, and a momentary defeat only stimulated his fighting spirit.

When he returned to his office, he pondered "Letter from Distance" again, and only then did he let out a long sigh of relief until every word of it was imprinted in his mind. As the forerunner has already said, he is not opposed to a deeper revolution, he just thinks that the time has not yet come, and to a certain extent he admires Lenin's revolutionary attitude, and he also looks forward to entering the second stage of the revolution as soon as possible, and he is also very suspicious of Kamenev's unprincipled defense and compromise.

In particular, after reading "Letters from Far Away" over and over again, Dzerzhinsky was eager to have direct and in-depth exchanges with Lenin, although he was not sure that Lenin would be completely convinced, but he believed that communication meant communication, at least to enable Lenin to understand the different opinions of his comrades in the party, and to provide him with supplementary opinions from different aspects in making decisions. So he was going to leave for Sweden. However, before that, it was necessary for him to make some arrangements for domestic affairs, and he really did not worry about Kamenev's right-leaning policy, and he could not let him toss around.

"Comrade Gayulauv, this is the "Letter from Afar" forwarded by Comrade Ganetsky, you can take a look and tell me what you think!"

Gayulauv was inexplicably called to Dzerzhinsky's office, originally thinking that he was looking for him to settle accounts for the siege of the editorial office yesterday, and he was ready to be criticized. But I didn't expect Dzerzhinsky to not mention yesterday's events at all, but to listen to his opinion. This really surprised and flattered him.

Gayulauf was well aware of his position in the party, and compared with those old-timers who were rich and rich, his cultural level was really low, and it was not his turn to express his opinions on theoretical and policy things, and he would not be taken seriously when he published them. So he was flattered and full of doubts, who wrote "Letter from Afar", and why did Dzerzhinsky listen to his opinion?

Of course, Gayurauf will not be stupid enough to ask directly, and honestly read the documents first. I don't know how to do it, I was startled when I saw it, whether it was the radical words like throwing guns and daggers in the text or the signature at the end, it all made Gayulauf excited. For Comrade Lenin, whom he had admired for a long time but had never met, he had a feeling of being on the ground. Even think that this is a real Bolshevik.

He asked in a voice that was a little trembling with excitement, "Felix. Comrade Edmundovich, Comrade Lenin is back? ”

Dzerzhinsky shook his head: "This was written by Comrade Lenin after learning abroad about the victory of the February Revolution, and now he should be on his way home!" ”

Gayulauf was even more excited, Nima is the real revolutionary leader, he is still abroad and knows the current situation at home well, and he thinks about the workers everywhere, where like some people in the country, Nima's ass has already sat on the bourgeois sofa. …,

"Comrade Lenin has analyzed too correctly, and we should immediately start a new round of revolution in accordance with his instructions! Felix. Comrade Edmundovich, you speak, what should we do! ”

Dzerzhinsky said secretly in his heart, I know that you will say this, but why don't you think about why I should listen to your opinion, do you think that I completely agree with Lenin's proposition? You're still too politically sensitive to understand what I mean!

"No hurry!" Dzerzhinsky smiled, "There are still different views in the party on Comrade Lenin's opinion, and we cannot act blindly when there is no consensus within the party." ”

Speaking of this, Dzerzhinsky raised his eyelids and looked at Gayulauv, and saw that the workers' leader in front of him seemed to be puffed up, needless to say that he had a strong opinion of Kamenev. But Dzerzhinsky had no intention of killing people with a knife or inciting the workers' hatred of Kamenev behind his back, and he hastened to add: "Don't be cranky, we must be cautious at the crossroads of the revolution, and no one knows whether our choice is right or not." I hope that you will proceed from the overall situation, consider the issues as a whole, do not act blindly, communicate more with the comrades around you, do more work among the working masses, and always safeguard the unity of the Party and protect the secrets of the Party. Of course, safeguarding the interests of the working masses and speaking for the working masses is the principle, and you must adhere to the ......"

When he came out of Dzerzhinsky's office, Gayulauv was still dazed, and he couldn't figure out what Dzerzhinsky had told him to do. When he first saw "Letter from a Distance", he thought it was an affirmation of himself, but Dzerzhinsky's words later seemed to make him not too radical, and he also criticized it euphemistically. If this is Dzerzhinsky's original intention, but later he is asked to defend the interests of the working masses and let him adhere to principles, no matter how you look at it, it contradicts the previous words, which is neither criticism nor praise, what is the picture?

What does this mean exactly? Gaurauf was completely confused. Since he couldn't figure it out, he naturally had to find someone to help figure it out, and the candidate was very simple, it was Li Xiaofeng......
