Don't blame Frunze for being surprised, in the top echelons of the party, I'm afraid that whoever listened to Li Xiaofeng's request would be surprised. The so-called counter-revolutionaries outside the party are quite easy to discern between them. It can be broadly divided into three groups:

The first group is the military die-hards headed by Kornilov, Denikin, and Karekin, who have soldiers and guns, and they are especially disgusted with the Bolsheviks, and have been shouting and shouting and killing;

The second group consisted of the right-wing elements of the Cadets and Social Revolutionaries, who, although they did not have military power, were politically opposed to the Bolsheviks, and were constantly criticizing and sneering in the newspapers;

The third group, most of which belonged to the center-right of the Socialist-Revolutionaries and the Mensheviks, did not share the political views of the Bolsheviks, but they were not entirely on the same side as the two groups above. They are ever-changing, with the unique style of the wall grass, but they are more influential than the wall grass.

By and large, the counter-revolutionaries in the eyes of the Bolsheviks were these three types of people, and with the victory of the October Revolution, with the seizure of power by the Bolsheviks. It is inevitable that the interests of the above three people will be touched, and the conflict between the two sides cannot be avoided at all.

However, the nature of these three counter-revolutionaries is not exactly the same, and the methods of struggle are naturally different - for the first type of people, from the mentors to the ordinary party members, they all hate them to the core. If Karekin or Kornilov and the like are caught, without saying a word, they will shoot first and then scatter the ashes, there will be no room for negotiation at all;

For the second type of people, it can't be so simple and straightforward, although the nature of these goods is very bad. But their influence at home and abroad is not small. If you shoot it directly. Then I am afraid that the public elites at home and abroad are afraid that they will dance wildly and set off a monstrous storm. Therefore, for this kind of goods, he is generally not directly destroyed in the flesh, but either imprisoned, exiled, or expelled from the country.

For example, most of the right wing of the Socialist-Revolutionary Party enjoyed these treatments, and after the establishment of the Soviet Union, these guys, who either fled from exile or were directly expelled from Russia, did their best to slander the Bolsheviks in the newspapers, almost like shrews.

And the most difficult to deal with is the third group of people. This kind of political proposition is vacillating, doing bad things as well as doing good things, and has a sign of a socialist, and has close relations with many members of the Bolshevik Party.

Clean them up, right? It seems that sin is worse than death. But leave them alone, right? These guys are talking nonsense again. It's not beating, it's not scolding, it's hard to toss, and some of their friends in the party still have to talk, it's just a group of living treasures.

For example, Martov, who was a brother who did not support the political ideas of the Bolsheviks. More than once the Bolsheviks were criticized in newspapers and magazines, almost to the point of nitpicking.

But this one had a good relationship with Lenin. If you don't clean him up, he'll kick his nose in the face, clean him up, he cried and shouted again to find Lenin. Later, the tutor was really annoyed by him, and after ignoring this swaggering abroad, he also paid for him to run a newspaper, so that he could go to foreign countries and talk nonsense, and he was out of sight and out of mind.

Seeing it, even the mentor doesn't have a very good way to deal with this goods, and he has to send money and gifts out of the country. Even his old man is like this, for those in the party who are engaged in the work of suppressing rebellion, wouldn't it be even more troublesome to face this person?

And now, in Moscow, there are not many people of the first and second groups, who have either fled or are already in the urn, and the most of them are the third group, from the beginning of the uprising, to the victory of the uprising, and now they are constantly jumping out and saying strange things, as annoying as flies.

However, the work of purging the rebellion had to be done, but it was limited to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, that is, the Bolsheviks and Dzerzhinsky, and only the iron-masked people were willing to take on this work. But now, Li Xiaofeng is rushing to ask for this hot potato, in Frunze's opinion, isn't this full of food?

"The anti-rebellion work has reached the point where it has to be done," Li Xiaofeng replied lightly, "After the victory of the uprising, among the various demonstrations and rallies in Moscow, there are many clowns who oppose our party and slander our party. They used their status to make a big deal and irresponsibly and wantonly abuse, which had a very bad impact...... Their activity has led to a group of people who are ready to move. I can even assert that at this very moment, in every neighborhood of Moscow, there are counter-revolutionaries secretly operating in concert with each other, in collusion with each other, and are plotting one conspiracy after another against our Party! ”

Li Xiaofeng suddenly strengthened his tone, waved his fist, and said, "If we continue to sit idly by, then the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Frunze didn't have any special expression, he had heard too many speeches like this during this time, and his ears were calloused. He didn't have any interest in this kind of fake big empty beautiful words, he just wanted to know what Li Xiaofeng's true purpose was.

"Isn't what I just said true?" Li Xiaofeng asked rhetorically.

"It's a fact! But ......" Frunze hesitated for a moment, but still asked bluntly: "But the anti-rebellion work is the responsibility of the Ministry of the Interior and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and everyone has their own duties, so you can do other equally critical work...... I'm sure you'll be able to excel in other areas......"

Well, although Frunze said it very tactfully, Li Xiaofeng still heard it, what people mean is that what are you doing with rats? Serious things that are easy to be in the limelight, grasp a lot of them, and suppress this kind of work that is not beneficial and easy to offend people, and fools will rush to do it! But you, Li Xiaofeng, are not stupid! Since you are not stupid, then you must have another purpose, you must have ill intentions!

Li Xiaofeng smiled bitterly, he really wanted to kneel for Frunze, he really just wanted to arrest the anti-rebellion work in advance, if it was according to the historical process, it would have to wait until December 20, 1917 after the establishment of the Cheka, and the anti-anti-rebellion work would begin.

The real rush to the post-terrorism work had to wait until after Lenin's assassination on August 30, 1918. This Nima is almost a year away. Do you tolerate those clowns croaking for a year? And for so long. How many tricks can those conspirators hatch. How many conspiracies can be carried out?

Anyway, Li Xiaofeng was completely impatient, why did he wait until September 1918 to severely crack down on the counter-revolutionaries, and why didn't he use heavy punches at the beginning? If these signs had been forcefully stifled from the beginning, perhaps it would not have led to the infinite expansion of the subsequent rebellion, and how many innocent people could have died?

It's not that Li Xiaofeng is compassionate and compassionate, he just thinks about his own interests, and it's always good to leave some more useful people. It is undeniable that a large part of the intellectuals and technical personnel in the purge of rebellion have suffered unjustified disasters. Leaving them in the domestic construction, how much is it a help, isn't it?

Frunze was a little confused, and he admitted that there were indeed some very noble comrades in the party who did not care about personal gains and losses. But Li Xiaofeng is definitely not included in this kind of person, in his eyes, someone is an ambitious guy who is eager to repay himself, how can a person like this sacrifice his own interests to consolidate the interests of the party?

"Believe it or not!" Li Xiaofeng sighed, "My only purpose is to crack down on the counter-revolutionary forces outside the party, that's all!" ”

Frunze became more and more hesitant, and Li Xiaofeng's very sincere expression made him a little moved. But he was still worried that he was being tricked by someone, "I understand your concern. But. Comrade Andrey, you must also understand my situation. From my point of view, I must be cautious, I cannot live up to the hopes of Comrade Lenin! ”

Li Xiaofeng heard what Frunze meant, but he was worried that his mentor would not agree, "Comrade Lenin's work will be done by me, as long as you agree to my proposal, even if Comrade Lenin does not approve it, the agreement reached between us will still be valid!" ”

Frunze was finally moved, if he didn't agree to such a good condition, he would be a political idiot, "If that's the case, I agree in principle!" ”

Li Xiaofeng can't complain about what he agrees in principle, Frunze, you are really cautious, you are even stuck with this little handle, as for it, a brother is an immortal, as for taking advantage of you?

"In that case, then we can come to an agreement!" Frunze couldn't wait, "Now I have to go to the office, there is still a lot of finishing work to ......."

"Slow! One more thing! Li Xiaofeng immediately interrupted him and poured a basin of cold water on Frunze's head.

"Do you have any more requests?" Frunze asked with some dissatisfaction.

Li Xiaofeng snorted and retorted unceremoniously: "Don't say that I seem to take advantage of you." Comrade Mikhail, you should be well aware of how magnanimous my conditions are for you! ”

Frunze laughed embarrassedly, and said, "I'm just in a hurry to deal with the basket that Dmitry stabbed, if it's too late, that little bastard doesn't know what trouble he is going to do...... Well, you say, what else do you want? ”

"My request is simple!" Li Xiaofeng did not talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "It can be predicted that the struggle in Moscow will continue for a long time to come. Inevitably, friction and disputes will arise between me and Comrade Joseph! ”

Frunze frowned, he was most afraid of hearing the request in this regard, but fortunately, Li Xiaofeng's next request was not particularly out of line: "My request is very simple, when there is friction between me and Comrade Joseph, you can uphold justice, speak completely on the side of the facts, and don't be like this afternoon, ready to use some small means to suppress the people who take advantage of reason!" ”

As soon as he remembered the dispute that had occurred in the afternoon, Frunze was angry, of course, not entirely angry with someone, but felt that there was not a single good bird in the whole of Moscow. Don't even think about it, Venter definitely made a fuss about this matter, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to talk about Dmitry so easily.

As long as he thought that he had helped Venter disgust Li Xiaofeng in the afternoon, Frunze was annoyed - your Venter, your Stalin, you are too insidious, Lao Tzu can be regarded as helping you get ahead in the afternoon, but in the evening, you yin me, and that's how you repay me?

Therefore, even if Li Xiaofeng does not mention this, he will not dare to casually intervene in this conflict in the future, this time he will compensate the confidential secretary, who should be compensated next time? Never mind. If you're willing to fight, then fight. As long as the interests of Comrade Lenin are not harmed. I'm too lazy to care about your!

Of course, on the surface, Frunze will still pretend to be more difficult, otherwise he will not be able to stand the third demand: "You know my position, even if you are particularly reasonable, I will not be able to completely uphold justice for you from the position of Comrade Lenin." ”

"I understand your concerns," Li Xiaofeng wouldn't be too anxious, "trivial things." I'm too lazy to bother with Joseph, but in principle, the question must be one and two, and there must be no sloppiness! ”

"Okay!" Frunze nodded "very embarrassed".

After the conditions were met, Li Xiaofeng did not accompany Frunze to continue the ink, he understood that there was not a fuel-efficient lamp in the old Bolsheviks, and even an honest person like Frunze was cunning and cunning, and if anyone was blinded by his appearance, he would definitely be taken to the ditch.

"Where next, city soviet?" Mark Vic asked.

"What are you doing there?" Li Xiaofeng asked rhetorically. "With Muralov here, Ordzhonikid can't make a single trick!"

said. He leaned on the backrest, as if talking to himself, as if to explain the reason to Mackvi: "We must keep our distance from Muralov for the time being, Georgy has not fully believed him, and it will be a big problem to be targeted by that dead brain!" ”

"You're not worried about Muralov playing tricks behind our back?" Mark Vi asked again.

Li Xiaofeng snorted contemptuously: "If he was smart enough, he wouldn't do this." Of course, I wouldn't mind sending him from heaven to hell if he was going to do it for himself. Any piece of evidence we have at hand can make him irreversible! ”

Makvi nodded in understanding, and just as he was about to turn around and return to Lubyanka, Li Xiaofeng suddenly gave a new instruction: "You didn't mention Muralov, I forgot, we still have an account to find someone to settle, go to the Petrograd Hotel!" ”

Mikoyan was the only one who lived in the Petrograd Hotel and had a grudge against a certain immortal. Tonight's turmoil was completely concocted by this conspirator, but because of the mentor, Li Xiaofeng had no way to clean up this bastard to death, so he could only let go of the culprit.

Of course, according to Li Xiaofeng's temper, the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime is unforgivable, as long as he can't kill or bring down Mikoyan, just a "proper" toss and toss this bastard, presumably the mentor will not mind.

Li Xiaofeng had just walked into the door of the Petrograd Hotel when Georgy and Suslov had already greeted him. However, it was clear that these two were not here to welcome him, on the contrary, these two were not too welcoming to the arrival of a certain immortal.

"Comrade Andrey, is there something wrong?" As soon as they met, Georgie was in a businesslike manner, and he even avoided greeting him and went straight to the point. It seems to be saying: "If there is something to say, there is nothing to do, you better leave immediately!" ”

"It's nothing," Li Xiaofeng didn't care about Georgie's coldness at all, as if he didn't feel it at all, and said to himself: "I'm passing by here on business, so I'll take a look by the way!" ”

Passing by?

Georgi didn't believe this kind of nonsense, what time is Nima, what can you do in the middle of the night? It is estimated that your passing by is fake, and the spy news is real!

That's right, subconsciously Georgie thought that Li Xiaofeng was not good at coming, and he came for the case. He knows exactly how big this case is, and maybe someone has played a role in it that is not particularly glamorous. In order to find out the truth, in order to find out the facts, even if he has a good personal relationship with Li Xiaofeng, he will not allow someone to play a side game.

"I see," he nodded silently, and said seriously: "Since you are passing by, Comrade Andrei, it is better for you to leave early." This is the quarantine review point of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the people who are detained are some very sensitive comrades. It's not convenient to receive you! ”

As soon as these words came out, Suslov admired Georgie even more, and felt that this big brother was really consistent with his words and deeds, no matter who came to him, he would not compromise, he was simply an idol!

On the other side, Mackwi felt unhappy, he knew a little about the relationship between Georgi and someone, and suddenly felt that this person was too unsympathetic, how about sitting and chatting when he passed by?

At that time, he said: "This is too much, right?" It's all comrades, what's inconvenient to entertain, we haven't made any unreasonable requests, it's always okay to entertain a cup of hot tea! ”

Whoever thought of Georgi would speak coldly: "In my opinion, your demands are very excessive! I would like to stress once again that this is a key secrecy unit and does not entertain any comrades. If you are here to report illegal acts, we welcome them. But if you're here to chat nonsense, then all I can say is ......"

He pointed to the door and said sternly, "Please leave immediately!" ”

Mark Wei gritted his teeth angrily, and the flames were soaring upward, and he was ready to go crazy at that time. Fortunately, Li Xiaofeng's eyes were quick and he grabbed him, "Comrade Macwi, don't get excited, don't get angry. Comrade Georgi is quite right, we have come a little abruptly...... Sorry to interrupt your work! ”

Georgi was also a little puzzled, but he knew that someone was not so good at talking, and he dared to grin with Dzerzhinsky when he was working, and he dared to pick a son directly. There's no reason to be sent away by him in a few words?

Georgi's guess was good, Li Xiaofeng was really not so easy to deal with, I saw him staggering to the gate, and when he was about to reach out to pull the door, he suddenly folded back again, only to see him ask with a smile: "I'm really embarrassed, suddenly a little anxious, can you borrow the bathroom for me?" (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you, ivanyu, the lost Comrade Remnant Feng! Thank you!
