Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Sverdlov insisted that no matter what the Germans thought, the top priority of the Soviet Red Army was to eliminate Kolchak's White Guards at all costs. Even joining the Volga Federation and the Entente was not a big deal. Tsarist Russia was originally a member of the Entente anyway.  Important members, now it's just a change of government.

    The little leader, who was the chairman of the Central Committee of Soviet Russia, slapped the table and shouted, saying that the Bolsheviks and imperialism must not piss into the same pot. The "Samara Peace Treaty" signed with the Volga Federation was just a stopgap measure. Once it is eliminated,  After defeating the Kolchak gang, the Soviets will inevitably regain lost territory and march to the other side of the Volga River. At the worst, they will take back Kursk Voronezh, Saratov and Tsaritsyn in the south!

    Zinoviev, Chicherin and Joffe all tended to support Sverdlov's idea. Defeating the Kolchak gang was more important than whether to join the Allies or the Allies, especially if they could join the Allies to fight.  The actions of Kolchak's White Guards can be described as draining the firepower and cutting off the Volga Federation's reason to continue funding Kolchak. However, our side can gain the support of the Volga Federation. A battle can determine the outcome and drive Kolchak into the Volga River.  Go feed the fish.

    Both Lomov and Bubnov supported Trotsky's view that they could use the signing of the truce with Kolchak as an opportunity to win the support of the Volga Federation and re-target Belarus, Poland, and Ukraine.  If these places are recaptured, their value and significance will be more worthwhile than going to a place like Kazan to fight Kolchak and offend the Volga Federation for Cheboksary!

    Those who support Ulyanov are Bukharin and Dzerzhinsky. The revolutionary left obviously does not have the upper hand. Bukharin is the mouthpiece and pen of the party. Slogans are his strength. He obviously cannot make such a roundabout change.  Quick, as for Dzerzhinsky, it was Ulyanov who promoted him. He led the Cheka to commit so many things during the purge of counter-revolutionaries. If he does not follow the leader closely at this time, he may be used as an abandoned son in the future.  Calm down and appease the emotions of the returning group.

    The meeting was extremely noisy. To be honest, Trotsky's idea was the most practical. If the goal was to eliminate Kolchak, it would be difficult to truly gain the recognition of the Volga Federation and the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front, and avoid  If you stand opposite the Volga Federation as a victim, you will have to compromise with Kolchak.

    The only thing that the Soviet Central Committee members did not disagree on was that they must not go back to the old path of fighting with the German-Austrian Allies and the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front. Before the Battle of Ufa, the Soviet Union adopted that strategic approach, and the German assistance at that time was also  It was not a small amount, but the result was that the war got bigger and worse. The Tsarist Russian prisoners of war repatriated from Germany caused the purity of the Soviet Red Army to drop sharply, and facilitated the rise of the Volga Federation. This old road must not be followed, and now even the Germans  We don¡¯t want to fight the Volga Federation, let alone Soviet Russia and Moscow.

    "Comrade Chairman, fellow members of the Central Committee, I think we can use silence to prevent a pre-emptive strike, and simply wait for the Germans to finish talking with the Volga Federation before making a decision. Otherwise, the Chinese king has no intention of accepting the olive branch offered by the Germans. In this case,  We can still get assistance and support from the German and Austrian Allies" Chicherin, the People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs, obviously left himself some escape routes. As the current People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs, if there is a major turn in the diplomatic strategy of the Soviet Central Committee,  In the future, he might have to pay the price for this period of cooperation with the Germans, and be treated as a scapegoat and a drowned dog to take responsibility.

    "Huh, that's just sitting back and waiting for death. Whether the Soviet Union can survive depends on whether we and the Volga Federation can coexist peacefully. Talking about going back to our hometown now is pure fantasy!" Trotsky blew his beard and glared.

    "There is no point in waiting for death. I agree with Comrade Chicherin. It is easy to act blindly if you strike preemptively at this time. Anyway, it has been decided that I will accompany the Germans to Samara tomorrow morning. Then we will see if we can bring the Germans and the Volga Federation together bilaterally.  How about turning the talks into a tripartite meeting? "Deputy People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Joffe finally chose to be consistent with his immediate boss. At this time, the Soviets turned back and joined the battlefield to attack the Germans without getting rid of Kolchak.  , this is no joke!

    "Comrades, we have a life-and-death relationship with Kolchak's gang. According to my analysis, the Volga Federation may not always protect Kolchak, a fanatical guy. If Moscow can join the Allied Forces, in fact, maybe  ¡­We can win without a fight on Kolchak¡¯s side!¡± Bubnov emphasized victory without a fight. To be honest, the former Soviet chairman of Ukraine and Tsaritsin had obviously lost confidence in the continued war.

    "Although the King of China is young, he is a secretive guy. He can be regarded as a figure, but I don't know how big his appetite is. I think the tripartite meeting mentioned by Comrade Joffe is nonsense. Even on the Eastern Front,  The current Soviet power is far less powerful than the German-Austrian Allies and the Soviet Union.The Allied Forces on the Eastern Front of the United Nations did not bother us at all!  If we want to talk, it must be a secret bilateral meeting, and we must settle the matter with the King of China before the Germans betray us!  "

    Trotsky was not convinced of Chicherin's weakness and Joffe's idealism. In his view, although the signing of the agreement had the meaning of expediency, it also meant that the Eastern Front Allied Forces of the Allied Powers did not intend to attack the Soviet Union.  The Russian regime is killing all of them. This is a potential benefit. The key depends on how to use it. Speaking of imperialism, aren¡¯t the Germans even more imperialist? The United States, Britain and France currently occupy less land in Tsarist Russia than the German and Austrian Allies

    At the end of the quarrel, the Politburo meeting of the Soviet Central Committee finally made the following decision:

    1. With Trotsky as the head of the delegation, Chicherin and Joffe as members, they took the Germans to the Volga Federation for secret consultations. The purpose was to negotiate with the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front before the Germans and the Chinese could reach an agreement.  The coalition reached an agreement.

    2. If the Germans betray the interests of Soviet Russia and Moscow during the negotiations, the Soviet Union is willing to take the initiative to cease the war with Kolchak and announce its return to the Allied camp, thereby obtaining the asylum of the Allied Eastern Front Allied Forces.

    3. In any case, the Germans cannot be allowed to exchange the Soviets as bargaining chips to the Allied Powers. For this reason, it is worthwhile to choose to return to the Allied Powers camp, even if they temporarily amend the Soviet land and war laws for this purpose!  Survival comes first!
