Mikoyan really had a bit of a meaning of not opening a pot and mentioning a pot, he knew that in the whole matter, Stalin was the most unhappy and unhappy person - Li Xiaofeng. The reason why he has such a big opinion is completely for a certain immortal.

In Stalin's view, there were only two people within the faction who were qualified to discuss the question of the line with Comrade Lenin: himself, and Sverdlov. This is determined by the division of forces within the Leninists, and what does it mean that such a serious question is not called him?

In the eyes of others, it means that Stalin has fallen out of favor, that is, he has lost the trust of his mentor, and it is very likely that he will become the next Kamenev and Zinoviev. Could Stalin accept such a result?

Naturally, it was unacceptable, so he hurriedly convened a meeting of his henchmen overnight to encourage and cheer up, in order to eliminate this adverse influence.

However, to be honest, Stalin's greatest anger was not that he was abandoned, and if Lenin had not consulted with him, but only Sverdlov, his opinion would have been a little smaller. However, it was a blow to the head that someone who was not even a member of the Central Committee sat down with Lenin and Sverdlov in a grand manner, and he, the most important bigwig within the Leninist faction, knew nothing!

Anyway, Stalin felt that his respect had been insulted, and if he was given a chance to duel with a certain immortal, he would not hesitate to stab that bastard to death!

And now Mikoyan even asked him to refrain from deliberately targeting someone, Nima, do you think that Lao Tzu has really been reduced to the point of looking at that bastard to live!

That moment. Stalin's anger was soaring upwards. The temperature in the carriage is skyrocketing. Even the driver and the guard in the front row sensed that something was wrong, and the two frequently went back to investigate.

However, what is admirable is that Mikoyan was indifferent, did not mean to be afraid at all, and said very calmly: "Comrade Joseph, I know that you have an opinion about Comrade Andrei and are deeply dissatisfied with Comrade Lenin's adoption of his proposal, but. I must remind you that Comrade Andrei saved the life of Comrade Lenin just before! ”

When this sentence came out, Stalin's anger suddenly became more than half smaller, if you just treat someone as a small character, then the previous approach of the tutor is really not considered, how can such a major matter listen to the vernacular of a hairy child? This is not scientific!

But there is nothing wrong with taking into account the status of Comrade Lenin's savior. In any case, Comrade Lenin had to give his savior a little face, didn't he?

What's more, someone is not exactly just a hairy child, and the contribution made by this product before is not small. And although the proposal put forward this time was somewhat difficult for the old revolutionaries to accept, even Stalin had to admit it. That plan is really feasible. So, even if someone's qualifications and status are poor. But with the above two points, it makes sense for Lenin to consult with him.

Thinking about it this way, Stalin felt a little more comfortable and seemed to be able to accept it, but this is a notoriously stubborn donkey, how can he be so easily convinced. He suddenly thought about it—although these two reasons could be justified and explained the reasonableness of the mentor's negotiation with that kid, but the negotiation was a negotiation, and there was no need to entrust the kid with a heavy responsibility!

At the thought that someone had stolen that important position, Stalin was angry and said angrily: "What about the life-saving benefactor? The Bolsheviks were the party of the proletariat, not Comrade Lenin alone, and even if Comrade Andrei made a certain contribution, he could not be appointed to the post without consideration. ”

Hehe, in the final analysis, Stalin has reaped a lot of benefits from Li Xiaofeng, what benefits? At that time, at the meeting, after the initial affirmation of the plan of cooperation with the foreign bourgeoisie, the question of how to implement it became a matter of great concern.

As envisaged by the Mentor, it is necessary to set up a special new body in the People's Council to take full control of this matter.

"It is necessary to set up a new commission," Lenin said, "to have this commission take the lead in the question of joint ventures and foreign trade...... I think it's called the Foreign Economic Relations and Trade Commission ......"

As soon as the tutor had spoken, Trotsky immediately followed: "Which department of the People's Commissariat is the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission under its control?" ”

In fact, what Trotsky really meant was that whoever was going to lead this department, as long as he was not an idiot, could see that the future "money" of this department was very large, and if he could get his hands on it, it would definitely be developed.

Of course, Trotsky also knew that the plans were all made by the Leninists, and that Lenin was the first to put forward the idea, and that the number one leader in this department must have been the Leninists, and that it was really difficult and unjustifiable for him to seize this position. However, Trotsky also knew that even if the first leader is useless, it is good to grab the second in command, and he has to stick a nail in this place to fight for a right or wrong.

Trotsky estimated that Lenin would most likely hand over the number one of these institutions to Sverdlov, after all, this proposal was formulated after he had consulted and discussed with Sverdlov, and it was only fitting that Sverdruff, as the architect of the plan, should be responsible for his concrete implementation.

It should be said that Trotsky's thinking was deviated to a certain extent, and he directly omitted a certain immortal, who, like Stalin, did not play any important role in promoting the establishment of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission from the beginning.

They all take it for granted that the reason why Lenin named someone was to appease someone, after all, someone almost became the leader of the Cheka in the capital, and was exchanged in the blink of an eye, plus someone was Lenin's savior, and he had to share a little credit to that kid, right?

However, this is not the case, because the initiator of the program is someone, and in the process of refining the program, someone has made quite a few groundbreaking suggestions based on the experience of later generations. To tell the truth, Lenin was quite optimistic about a certain immortal.

So, when Lenin proposed that a certain immortal should be in charge of this department, Trotsky and Stalin were shocked. These two people simply don't believe in their ears. I could not have imagined that Lenin would let someone who was recovering from a sick person take the lead. This is appalling!

Trotsky was a little better, after all, he was not a Leninist, and he had dealt with someone several times, and although he was young, he still had the ability, and that he had been in charge of the smuggling of grain before, so it was reasonable for him to be in charge of this work.

But Stalin was completely different. First of all, he was a bigwig within the Leninists, and he was second only to Lenin on an equal footing with Sverdlov. Although he had previously opposed this proposal, Stalin believed that opposition is opposition, and that I would be on the merits. And now, now that this department is about to be established, he is fully qualified to lead this institution as Lenin's right-hand man.

Stalin thought so, although Sverdlov was one of the initiators. But now he wears many hats, and each of them is important. It is really unreasonable to give him such an important position again.

And although he is in charge of the Secretariat of the Central Committee and is also the leader of the Committee for Ethnic Affairs in the Council of People's Commissars, to be honest, the two departments he manages are really not as important and awesome as Sverdlov. In order to maintain the balance on the mountain, Lenin should also hand over this foreign trade and economic cooperation commission to him!

Of course, Stalin also thought that perhaps because of his previous direct opposition, Lenin would not have been able to directly hand over the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission to him as the leader, and it was entirely possible for him to appoint a pro-Stalin person to lead this department. In this way, it is also equivalent to giving him Stalin.

It can only be said that Stalin was too naïve, and in fact there has never been a good thing of getting something for nothing and falling pie in the sky, at least not politically. If you look at it entirely from the point of view of the balance of power, this position should indeed be given to the weaker Stalinists. But Lenin was never a leader who made arbitrary appointments in order to maintain the balance of power.

It is true that it is important to maintain a balance within the forces of potential, but for the current Bolsheviks it is even more important to get rid of economic passivity. If Stalin had just supported the Mentor's point of view, the Mentor might have considered handing him over, but this was strongly opposed. Then the mentor must consider, Stalin's resistance is so fierce, can he and his people do the job?

Whoever it is, I'm afraid will doubt this. Your Stalin's attitude is not "correct" in the first place, his attitude is not correct, can he do good things? And Lenin also had to take into account the sentiments of the Sverdlov family, who came up with the plan and supported it sparing no effort to withstand the pressure, but you handed it over to those who opposed it, your lord, my lord, and you were too partial in doing so, right? It's just like that!

Naturally, Lenin could not pull the shelf, at least in this matter, and it was reasonable that the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Committee could only hand it over to the Sverdlov department, which strongly supported it, and as for the Stalin department, did he have any opinions? If you have an opinion, you have an opinion, who let you not seize the opportunity just now, you were a little smarter just now, and strongly supported me, I still have an excuse, who can blame you for your strong opposition!

Moreover, Lenin also felt that there was another advantage of handing over the operation of a certain immortal of the Sverdlov department, that someone had made a great effort to go from the idea to the specific design, and that someone was at least familiar with these designs and ideas, and that the designer himself was responsible for implementing them, so he didn't have to worry about deviating too much from the design, right?

And a certain immortal has been doing this work all along, and has also opened up some key links, and it is also convenient to communicate with foreign capital, and everything is ready-made. Needless to say, Stalinist was vigorously opposed and was not familiar with the essence of the program, and there were no channels and bases for external communication. Even the rest of the Sverdlov department was not suitable for the job. Thinking about it, Lenin could only hand over this work to a certain immortal, because only this guy was suitable!

Of course, handing over a job to someone also faces a lot of resistance, and the first is the issue of someone's qualifications, who is too young and so young that it hurts. Is there little resistance to handing over such an important and groundbreaking work to a furry child?

This is only one thing, and the second is that someone is recuperating from an injury, and a bedridden person can preside over such an important work? No matter how you say it, you have to hand it over to a comrade who is in normal health!

Although the resistance was great, Lenin believed that it was not insurmountable. Qualifications or something. It really matters. But weren't the Bolsheviks seniority even greater? If seniority is completely discussed, a large part of the comrades in the Central Committee must now give up their positions to the older comrades, is this appropriate?

And being young is not a bad thing at all, and this kind of particularly groundbreaking work of crossing the river by feeling the stones must be handed over to some young people who dare to fight and be good at innovation! The old thinking of the old comrades can't keep up with the new situation!

As for recuperation from a serious illness, this is not a big problem, and it is impossible to establish a completely new department overnight! Even if the central government has agreed. Preparation and planning are also indispensable, and there is no need to do too much physical labor during this period, and there is no need to run around!

When the preparatory work is basically ready, it will take at least a month, Comrade Andrei is young and has a strong recovery ability, this time is enough for him to recover his health!

Of course, these excuses are nonsense, in fact, as long as Lenin and Sverdlov are in favor of someone, then he can't do it. As for the objections, you have the ability to stand up and say them in front of your mentor and Sverdlov. Let's see if it's going to be shaved all over the bag.

To be honest, only a handful of people dared to oppose it in person, such as Trotsky, Stalin and Dzerzhinsky. But will all three of them be unanimous in their opposition?

Let's start with Trotsky. For Lao Tuo, even if he opposes it, it will not be his turn to be the number one, and now let Li Xiaofeng, who is both young and with shallow qualifications, be the leader, to be honest, he is still a little happy. For what?

The number one is too young and too senior, in the eyes of quite a few people, it means that the authority of the number one is not strong, and who is more beneficial to the number one who is not authoritative? Naturally, it is beneficial to the second-in-command, but to put it mildly, if Trotsky had sent an old comrade with high seniority and authority to be the second-in-command, perhaps he would have been able to empty someone!

For the sake of protecting his own rights and interests, Trotsky would certainly not object to driving a certain young man down, Lenin was angry and directly appointed Sverdlov to preside over the work, and the second-in-command he sent was still in charge?

So, in the face of this situation, Trotsky could only raise his hands in favor of it, how could he oppose it?

The rest are Dzerzhinsky and Stalin, let's talk about the man in the iron mask first, Dzerzhinsky has no other merits, that is, he is good at judging things on the facts, that is, he is fair and strict. In the old revolutionaries in the party, other people may think that someone is not good at what they say, and they may think that someone has something wrong with their abilities.

But would Dzerzhinsky say such things against his will? It can be said that he has watched someone grow up, and he knows someone's abilities clearly. Maybe Li Xiaofeng has a lot of problems, many of which even Dzerzhinsky can't get used to, but he knows very well that someone can do this well, at least better than other so-called old seniors in the party! So from the point of view of seeking truth from facts, Dzerzhinsky will not object.

So, all that remains is Stalin, the bare-bones commander, and the hatred between him and someone has long been knotted, and he felt that the mentor had humiliated him before, you say, can you give up?

At that time, at the meeting, Stalin was vehemently opposed to the appointment, and even carried out a certain degree of personal attack on someone. If it weren't for the fact that the tutor's face was very unsightly at that time, as if he wanted to eat Stalin alive, Stalin would probably have been even more out of line at that time.

Unfortunately, Stalin's excesses did not make Lenin back down, and with the impetus of his mentor, the support of Trotsky and Sverdlov, and the tacit approval of Dzerzhinsky, Stalin's opposition became a mantis arm, and the nomination was quickly approved by the Central Committee.

Naturally, invisibly, this once again amplified Stalin's hatred of someone, which is why Mikoyan reacted so strongly when he warned him not to attack a certain immortal again.

"Comrade Joseph, you have to calm down!" Mikoyan bitterly persuaded, "On the question of Comrade Andrei, Comrade Lenin may not have thought it out perfectly, and there may be certain problems. However, Comrade Lenin's decision was made after taking into account the overall situation, and I believe that if there was a better candidate, he would not have chosen Comrade Andrei's ......"

These words made Stalin a little more comfortable, but he still wanted to be more serious: "I cannot completely agree with your statement, Comrade Lenin has definitely made a big mistake on the issue of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and it is not that we do not have a more suitable candidate, but Comrade Lenin has turned a blind eye. That's what I want to emphasize, I'm just crying out for other comrades who are more suitable! Letting a hairy child do such an important job is simply playing the piano indiscriminately! ”

Mikoyan sighed in his heart, he felt that Stalin was simply nonsense, he was simply complaining about himself, and the so-called more suitable comrade did not need to think about himself. In Mikoyan's opinion, there was no big problem with the appointment made by Lenin, and when he asked himself, he also felt that under the current conditions, a certain immortal was indeed the most suitable!

But naturally he couldn't say this kind of thing, and if he said it, Stalin would be furious and not say it, and if he didn't get it, he would be jealous of him. Mikoyan and a certain immortal are not friends, it should be said that they are still enemies, and there is no reason to speak for the enemy. If smashing someone can make Stalin happy, can calm Stalin, he does not resist belittling a certain immortal.

At that time, Mikoyan bitterly persuaded: "I can understand your feelings, but you must take into account that this appointment was discussed and approved by the Central Committee. To oppose this appointment is to oppose the Central Committee, to oppose Comrade Lenin! At present, we must rally closely around Comrade Lenin, and for the sake of the overall situation and to help Comrade Lenin, please bear with me! (To be continued......)
