1855 United States Tycoon

"Hey, Dena, what are you looking at? So serious? Have you forgotten that we still have important things today?" Liebknecht smiled at Dena, and then picked it up from the table without restraint. A teacup, poured himself a glass of water, raised his head, and drank it gurglingly.

"Um..." Dena replied casually, but apparently she didn't hear Liebknecht at all. Because her eyes were still fixed on the booklet, and she even used a pencil to draw something on the scratch paper on the table from time to time.

"Hi, Dena Miss!" Liebknecht had to raise his voice.

"Ah, what's the matter?" Dena finally noticed Liebknecht.

"Dana, our friend, Vladimir is going back to Russia. Have you forgotten? Russia is now undergoing a revolution and he is going back. We have to talk to him." Liebknecht smiled He replied.

"Ah, thank you. If you don't say it, I almost forgot it." Dena put down the pamphlet in her hand and stood up.

"What book is this that fascinates you like this?" Liebknecht was obviously curious, and walked over, wanting to read the content of the book.

"Ah, this is an epoch-making book that has profoundly changed my outlook on the world." Dena replied with a grin, "Although I haven't dared to fully believe his point of view, many places can really inspire people. .Why, do you want to study it too?"

"You said so well, of course I want to take a look." Liebknecht replied, "I still believe in your vision. You think it is so good, so it must be worth seeing."

"Well, let you see it. Don't blame me if your head explodes." Dena smiled and handed the booklet to Liebknecht.

"On the electrodynamics of moving bodies?" Liebknecht opened his eyes wide as he looked at the pamphlet in his hand. "What's this about?"

"The movement of physics perfectly solves the problem of ether. It also shatters the fixed view of time and space since Kepler. It is a world view that instinctively destroys people. Well, I mean that part of the understanding of the natural world. Book." Dena said.

"I'll leave it to you." Liebknecht returned the booklet to Dena very self-awarely. "If this thing seems to be a headache for you, then I don't want to look at it. I think I am. It’s better to watch Verne’s stuff. Okay, we should go."

...

Because of the series of disastrous defeats in the Russo-Japanese War, as well as the brutal conquests in order to maintain the war, various dissatisfaction in Russia has become increasingly fierce. By the end of 1904, various strikes began to appear constantly. In January 1905, the workers of Petersburg launched a general strike, but at that time, the Russians still had many illusions about the czar.

Generally speaking, the monarchs of autocratic monarchy countries will always find ways to deify themselves, deceive the people by all means, political and religious, and make them believe that the king is extremely wise and kind, and is simply omnipotent. The incarnation of the good God in the world. The emperor of China is the emperor carried by the heavens, the tsar of Russia is the guardian of the Orthodox Church, the pharaohs of ancient Egypt are the sons of gods, and the Tianhuang of Nihong is directly the god.

But in this way, there was a problem immediately. Since the emperor is as wise as a god and kind as Cheng Xin, why are there so many unreasonable and bullying things in the world? So a famous lie that was specifically used to deceive the people appeared. This sentence depends on the city that has seen the "Water Margin". That is what Song Yasi Big Brother often said: "Today, the holy is the most holy and the most bright. Some traitors were blinded."

This kind of nonsense is of course not worthwhile, because logically speaking, it is different. The so-called sage means that people cannot be deceived. If just a few traitors can be blinded, then there is still a Mao Shengming. However, the point of brainwashing is to make you forget the logic and believe in these messy things. Even in many cases, brainwashing can be carried out under the banner of anti-brainwashing. But no matter how they play, just like physical hypotheses without mathematical support cannot be called hypotheses, but can only be called fantasy. Anything that does not rely on logic to persuade people but tries to rely on conscience or morality is brainwashing. Playing hooligans.

However, this kind of hooliganism has lasted for thousands of years, and it is not without a reason. The reason is that this trick really works. For example, in Russia, for hundreds of years, most of the Russian people, although deeply oppressed, but sincerely believed that His Majesty the Tsar was such a good person, and even called him our father. I blame the bureaucrats below for being too bad.

With this understanding, when the people are not going to live anymore, they first think of not revolution, but petition to the czar. They naively believe that the extremely kind-hearted czar does not know their situation, because he was deceived by the traitor. Once the people let him see the truth, he will immediately stand firmly on the side of the people, severely deal with the bad guys, and return the Russian people to the blue sky.

What kind of understanding is there, there is what kind of action. Now that there is such a naive idea, naturally there will be naive actions. In January 1905, more than 30,000 workers in Petersburg, despite the dissuasion of the Bolsheviks, followed a loving Orthodox priest with an empty IQ, a high cross, an icon of Jesus, and a portrait of the Tsar, and went to the Winter Palace to petition the Tsar. His Majesty’s guard fired and the priest who took the lead was killed on the spot. The crowd retreated in a panic, and the guards chased and killed thousands of "insurgents."

The Tsar made this decision because he knew that there were many people who were dissatisfied with reality. As long as he made a slight concession, more people would jump out and make own demands. Therefore, he I believe that the best way at the moment is to adopt a high-pressure policy and severely suppress the provocateurs. Maybe it will be able to frighten those assholes and make them honest.

I have to say that Tsar Nicholas II made a mistake. He thought it was very frightening to frighten people. I don't know. From ancient times to the present, the best way to deal with people is not to threaten but to deceive. When a king can only rely on deterrence and suppression to maintain, the emergence of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang Spartacus is inevitable.

After the bloody suppression, the stupidest common people also understood that the czar was not their father, they had always been cheated. As a result, the Bolsheviks, who had not been able to gain the trust of the workers at all, immediately gained the trust of the Mensheviks, and the revolutionary theories they propagated were immediately supported by the workers. In the world, there is no shortage of individuals who are too stupid to figure out their own interests and who are sold for money, but there is no class in this world who can't figure out their own interests. So the revolution broke out quickly. From Petersburg to Yekaterinburg, from Moscow to Kiev, the flames of revolution are everywhere.

However, neither the Bolsheviks nor the Mensheviks are ready to lead this revolution. Their numbers are still too few, and their organizations are too few. Most of the revolutions are spontaneous, without organization and cooperation. Because before that, when the lie that the Tsar was the father of the Russian people could still deceive the public, both the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks would be regarded by the simple people as careerists, and it was naturally difficult for their organizations to develop. Very limited. Coupled with the continuous blows by the tsarist government, many of their leaders can only be exiled abroad. Therefore, at this time, Russia does not yet have a political force that can truly organize the bottom thirsty for revolution. Lenin was also ready to return to Russia at this time.

..."I'm glad you came to say goodbye to me." Lenin said to Dena and Liebknecht. "What do you think of the situation in Russia today?"

"Comrade Lenin, Comrade Dena has some thoughts on the status quo in Russia." Liebknecht said.

"I want to ask, Comrade Lenin, what do you want to achieve when you go back to Russia this time?" Dena asked bluntly.

"The revolution has already happened. The situation in Russia shows that the people desperately desire revolution and need it. So, after returning to Russia, my task is of course to work more for the revolution and to overthrow the tsarist dictatorship." Lenin replied.

"Then Comrade Lenin, do you think the time is right to overthrow the Tsar?" Dena continued to ask.

"Then Comrade Dena, what do you think?" Lenin did not answer, but asked Dena's opinion.

"I think the time to overthrow the Tsar is not yet ripe." Dena did not decline, but directly talked about own point of view. "Comrade Lenin, you told us last time that the number of Bolsheviks in Russia is still very limited. Contact with workers is also limited. The lack of sufficient experienced grassroots is the biggest weakness of the current Bolsheviks, which makes it difficult for you to organize the workers effectively. Comrade Lenin, you are also very well-organized. The difference between power and unorganized power. Even though there are uprisings everywhere today, they can hardly form a cooperation. The Bolsheviks have limited power and cannot organize them. But the tsar’s organization is indeed impossible. The problem is. So in the current situation, the Czar can completely defeat the revolutions in various places. If the Bolsheviks want to overthrow the Czar at this time, they will encounter great difficulties, suffer huge losses, and it will be difficult to succeed. "

"Then Comrade Dena, what do you think we should do?" Lenin asked.

"Take this opportunity to educate the people, rectify and strengthen the organization." Dena replied, "You can't build tall buildings on the beach. Only with an organization with strong combat effectiveness can you bring about victory in the revolution. Therefore, This revolution, I think, Comrade Lenin, you should treat it more as a revolutionary exercise, and use it to find out the weaknesses and improve them. Prepare for the next real revolution."
