However, the incompetent temporary was asleep like the ignorant girl in the "Gospel", unaware of the current fierce revolutionary situation in Russia, armed sailors and unarmed men climbed to the south bank of the Neva River, jumped into the Winter Palace through the rear window, Ministers awaiting general elections were arrested and driven out without any resistance.Interim Prime Minister Kerensky fled to the neighboring US embassy.According to local media afterwards, there were less than five casualties during the whole process. One person sprained his ankle by jumping out of the window, one person was injured by a bullet hitting the ceiling and rebounded from the front door, and three people were accidentally injured by the ricochet hitting the floor.

Amidst the rumble of cannons attacking the Winter Palace, the Second All-Soviet Congress opened in the Smolny Palace. The meeting first passed the "Letter to the Workers, Soldiers and Peasants" drafted by Lenin, declaring that all power in all places should be transferred to the workers. Peasants and Soldiers Delegates to the Soviet.The Congress adopted the "Peace Decree" and "Land Decree" drafted by Lenin. The "Peace Decree" exposed imperialist predatory wars and reflected the working people's urgent desire for peace. The "Land Decree" stipulates that the land ownership system of landlords shall be abolished immediately, and all land shall be nationalized and handed over to working peasants for use.Finally, the Congress elected the world's first Soviet People's Committee of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers, and Lenin was elected as the People's Committee.The People's Committee consists of ministries that perform various functions of the proletarian state.Stalin was elected People's Commissar for National Affairs and Trotsky was elected People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs.

As the Bolsheviks dissolved the Constituent Assembly by force, the Bolsheviks' sworn enemy, the Socialist Revolutionary Fanny Kaplan, assassinated Lenin, hitting him in the neck and lung.The secret police "Cheka" led by Dzerzhinsky immediately issued a decree: "All counter-revolutionaries will be killed on the spot." Kaplan was hanged.

Six weeks after Lenin was assassinated, the Bolsheviks secretly moved the capital back from Petrograd.The news of the relocation of the capital was not announced, and the train full of people's commissars drove into the dark night without turning on the headlights. The center of the revolution was moved from Petersburg, the "window of Europe", to the ancient Kremlin in the Principality.

After the establishment of the Soviets, they destroyed the old state machinery, abolished the old departments, the old courts, and the old police, and demobilized the old army.Proceed to establish the ministries of the People's Committee, the People's Court, the Workers' and Peasants' Inspection Office, the Workers' Police, and form a new Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.Abolished the old hierarchical system of the imperial Russian period, announced the equality of rights of people of all nationalities in the country, equality of men and women, and abolished all privileges of the church; the Soviet regime took over banks, railways, and factories.Later, large industries were nationalized, foreign trade was monopolized, and the eight-hour work system was implemented, with workers supervising production.Confiscate the land of the landlords, the royal family, and the monasteries, and distribute it to the peasants for cultivation; abolish all temporary foreign debts owed by the tsar and the bourgeoisie, so that the Soviet people will not be exploited by foreign capital.In order to consolidate the revolutionary regime, the All-Russian Cheka, chaired by Dzerzhinsky, was established to resolutely suppress the sabotage activities of counter-revolutionaries.

Thus, after the Paris Commune, the second proletarian regime was formally established!
Under the influence of the October Revolution, the red storm in Europe began to erupt in the Austro-Hungarian Empire after brewing.

On March 1903, 3, Hungary established the Republic of Soviets, established the first country in Europe under the dictatorship of the proletariat, and ended the 21-year rule of the Habsburg family over Hungary.

The revolutionary background in Hungary is not complicated. In the world war, although the Austro-Hungarian Empire was the victorious country, don’t forget that the Austro-Hungarian Empire survived in the cracks of Germany and followed the Germans to pick up some bargains.In addition, Emperor Franz of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was extravagant and extravagant, which caused a huge burden on people's lives and the domestic economy. After the war, the country's economy not only failed to achieve considerable development, but was dragged into the quagmire by the post-war economic crisis , unable to extricate themselves for a long time, the people's livelihood withered, and even to the point of devastation.There is also the red leader Lenin who has been active in Europe all year round. His revolutionary theory has influenced many European radicals. The Austro-Hungarian Empire took the lead in establishing the Communist Party before Russia, and actively organized the labor movement secretly. The red forces are slowly Penetrate nationwide.

The October Revolution was like a catalyst. The Hungarian people’s revolutionary sentiment was high and they strongly demanded to “take the road of the Russians.” The Hungarian Communist Party put forward the socialist revolutionary slogan of “disarming imperialism, arming the proletariat, and establishing a Soviet regime”. an all-out struggle.Finally, on March 3, the Hungarian Communist Party and the Social Democratic Party jointly seized power and announced the establishment of the Hungarian Soviet Republic. The people's commissar, the two parties merged into the Hungarian Socialist Party, confiscated the property of the Habsburg family, and drove the old and incompetent Emperor Franz out of the territory of Hungary. Since then, His Majesty the Emperor began a long career in exile.

After the establishment of the Soviet Republic, it immediately set out to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat, smashed the old state machinery in accordance with the principles of the Paris Commune, and carried out socialist transformation in the economic field. On March 3, urban and rural general elections will be held, the Red Army will be recruited, the red civilian police will be established to replace the old police and gendarmerie, the revolutionary courts and anti-revolutionary committees will be organized, and industrial and mining enterprises, transportation industries, commerce and all uses will be announced to employ more than 7 workers. Profitable capitalist enterprises are nationalized.It was stipulated that all real estate with an area exceeding 20 Holts should be nationalized, and production cooperatives should be established.In order to improve the lives of the working people, the Hungarian Soviet adopted a series of measures: implementing an 100-hour working system; nearly doubling the wages of workers; workers enjoying disease and work-related injury insurance; eliminating slums, confiscating capitalists’ houses and distributing them to the proletarians, etc.

The Russian October Revolution and the establishment of the Hungarian Soviet Republic shocked the world, and the news quickly spread to Beijing. There were key members of the cabinet including Liang Qichao, Feng Xianghua, Xu Shichang, Liu Buchan, Lin Jianzhang, Zhao Bingjun, Wu Tingfang, etc. Liang Qichao reported the matter to the emperor , There was a long silence after that, everyone present held their breath, watching the emperor's reaction.

"What should come will always come." Guan Xuqing unknowingly said what Yuan Shikai said before. Not only did he not have the slightest regret or fear, but his eyes glowed brightly, "A flood, a civil war. The empire is struggling to cope. During this period, countries around the world have undergone tremendous changes. Many things have already happened, and it is impossible to change them. This red storm will not stop here, and the whole of Europe will be affected by it, but Germany It is a dictatorial country, resolutely dictatorship, he will go to the opposite side of Russia, the United Kingdom, the United States and France all claim to be highly democratized countries, of course they look down on the Russian workers' regime even more, so the red forces will not I am gratified by the fact that it has penetrated into major countries."

"But your majesty, judging from Lenin's various remarks, this new Soviet has repeatedly criticized foreign imperialist forces. Although it did not say it explicitly, it is clearly aimed at China. I am afraid that as long as this exists, it will be the largest empire. obstacles, even enemies." Liang Qichao said worriedly.

"Of course, what I mean is that if the Soviet wants to establish a country and overthrow the Temporary, of course it must criticize China, because the whole world knows that the so-called Temporary is just a puppet of China, but now it's time for the Soviet to establish a country. We will be very cautious about every policy and move of China. After all, there is such a powerful country in the south of China. Lenin is a smart man, and he will not let us become new enemies. The scars of the Sino-Russian war are still there. If you want to say Lenin had no scruples about the empire, and I don’t believe anything! So for the Soviets, we still have to wait and see what happens. As long as they show good intentions first, we will admit this, otherwise, if the situation is really restricted At that time, maybe there will be another Sino-Russian war!" Guan Xuqing's eyes were shining brightly, and his tone of voice was aggravated.

"Your Majesty, Germany is now acting very frequently. They have been expanding their military and are still developing new weapons. It is said that the Germans have also built airplanes and are developing aircraft carriers. Their technology in some rifles even surpasses that of our country. It seems that Germany People are getting ready for war again." Feng Xianghua said in a respectful voice.

This time, Guan Xuqing didn't answer right away. After thinking for a while, he said: "The Germans are naturally warlike. Don't forget that the last world war was initiated by the Germans."

"The emperor means that there will be World War II?" Liu Buchan was shocked.

Guan Xuqing nodded: "If my predictions are correct, the Second World War will start soon, and its scale will surpass that of the First World War, so you must be fully prepared."

"twitter."

"This war will still be provoked by the Germans. They are actively expanding their armies and preparing for war in order to launch an aggression against Europe. I would like to remind you today to pay close attention to a man named Hitler in Germany."

"Hitler? I haven't heard of this name before."

"In the future, this name will be known to the whole world. Let's not talk about it. I have considered it again and again and decided to separate the Air Force from the Army Department as soon as possible and establish the Imperial Air Force Department. Feng Ru will be the first minister. Let’s work together to make this happen as soon as possible.”

"Cha." "Cha." Xu Shichang and Liu Buchan received the decree together.

Guan Xuqing said to Liu Buchan: "Now I want to know the construction process of the Imperial Aircraft Carrier."

"Cha." Liu Buchan took two steps forward and said: "Since the first aircraft carrier in the empire was built, we have built two more aircraft carriers, which are even better in all aspects. One is docked in Weihai, and the other is docked in Hainan Island. , I have brought photos and information of these two ships this time, please look at them, Your Majesty Longmu."
