Mediterranean Hegemony Road

When the undercurrent of the Kingdom of Hungary is ready to change jobs at any time, the Russians are also accumulating strength and are ready to jump out and grab the loot.

Ever since Nicholas II completed the purge of St. Petersburg, the entire Russian Empire has become hesitant.

Nicholas II told the world with practical actions: The Tsar is the Tsar, and he is still so decisive when dealing with "rebellion"!

A total of more than 40,000 capitalists, officials and their families were arrested. Nicholas II organized a collective trial. Then, in the cheers of the people, more than 10,000 people were sent to the gallows. All the people below were also exiled to Siberia!

After killing the maggots, there was no containment by interest groups. The tsarist government's mobilization efficiency immediately increased by 50%. In February, the tsarist government mobilized 600,000 young people again, took up weapons and joined the great and sacred army. Big family.

There is no doubt that this mobilization was naturally contributed by the capitalists selflessly. The weapons and equipment were all taken from their coffers, and the military expenses were also copied from their property!

Nicholas II made a big profit this time, and the cash of the goods seized from the inspection alone amounted to more than one billion rubles, hundreds of tons of gold, foreign exchange worth tens of millions of pounds, and a lot of antique calligraphy and painting.

There are even more real estate, with thousands of factories, a large number of shops, houses, and large mines and farms distributed throughout the country ...

It took more than two months for the Tsar Treasury ’s Ministry of Finance to make a preliminary estimate of the total value of the assets seized. It has to be said that Mao Xiong ’s family is thick. According to the most conservative estimate, this time Nicholas II ’s harvest is also More than 1.3 billion pounds.

This huge amount of money has greatly eased the financial crisis of the Tsarist government. Of course, this is only short-term, and not to mention that the real estate in it cannot be realized in the short-term. Even if it is all cash in front of huge war costs, it is not worth mentioning.

Just look at the financial expenditures of the major warring countries, and you know that the war is terrible.

Fiscal expenditure of various countries in 1913:

British Empire 197 million pounds;

The French Republic: 201 million pounds;

German Empire 220 million pounds;

Russian Empire 189 million pounds;

Austro-Hungarian Empire 118 million pounds;

121 million pounds in the Kingdom of Bulgaria;

Kingdom of Italy 95.68 million pounds;

Fiscal Expenditure by Countries in 1916:

British Empire 2.568 billion pounds;

The French Republic is 2.675 billion pounds;

German Empire 3.262 billion pounds;

Russian Empire 2.746 billion pounds;

Austro-Hungarian Empire 1.578 billion pounds;

1.136 billion pounds of the Kingdom of Bulgaria;

186,500 pounds in the Kingdom of Italy;

Over 90% of this expenditure was spent on military expenditures. In the face of such huge military expenditures, it is not surprising that governments of all countries want to end the war as soon as possible.

When the cannon rang, the gold was in danger! In order to raise funds, governments of all countries have racked their brains, such as increasing taxes on the people, borrowing from consortia, printing banknotes, and so on.

Now that Nicholas II has money, he naturally has to make big moves, such as speeding up mobilization, purchasing weapons and equipment, and strategic materials.

According to the current mobilization rate of the Russians, three million Russian troops will appear on the eastern front in April, and by the end of the year, this number will exceed the four million mark.

If the Allies cannot make a breakthrough on the Western Front in the short term, then the outcome of this war is doomed. In the second half of the year, they will face a six-layered furry bear on the Eastern Front. If there are no more than one million Germans, they will not be able to defend!

In a hurry, the Hindenburg government decided to send the Revolutionaries back to Russia, adding chaos to Nicholas II.

Moreover, the current tsarist Russia really has a revolutionary foundation. Nicholas II and the capitalists have broken up. The two sides can be described as deep-seated, which created favorable conditions for the revolution.

According to the Germans, Russia now only needs a Mars, and an explosion will occur immediately. Even for self-protection, the capitalists have to embark on the road to resist the tsarist government!

Of course, even if Nicholas II did not start, in order to capture greater benefits, the capitalists would still do it, but this time is still uncertain.

The Nicholas II cleansing in St. Petersburg this time was just an inducement.

After all, interest is always the best catalyst, and the rule of the Tsarist government can no longer satisfy the growing appetite of the capitalists. They are trying to establish a government that fully represents the interests of the capitalists.

I have to say that the St. Petersburg Purge launched by Nicholas II this time did a very good job, which directly damaged the bourgeoisie and changed the balance of power between the enemy and us.

But Russia is really too big, and the capitalists are all smart people. When their colleagues in St. Petersburg were devastated, they were all prepared, and they could n’t do it all.

Ready to run, ready to resist. Of course, no matter whether they choose to resist or choose to run, the capitalists themselves will not be charged.

The most typical example is that after the St. Petersburg cleansing, the number of capitalists who went to Bulgaria for investment inspections skyrocketed. Including their families, the number of capitalists increased by more than 8,000 in just one month.

Obviously, these people are not expected to do major things. One by one, using telegrams to remotely command the overthrow of the rule of the Tsarist government is undoubtedly noble.

Therefore, Hindenburg decided to send Lenin's revolutionaries back home, and also fund their weapons and equipment, activities, the purpose is simply to bring together the Russian Revolutionary Party and the capitalists.

The revolutionaries have experience in rebellion. Although they have all failed, they also have experience? The capitalists have the strength and are scattered in the major cities of Russia. Once they start at the same time, there will always be several successful cases.

Then the civil war in Russia should have broken out, and the pressure on the German Eastern Front naturally disappeared. As for whether these people can overthrow the rule of the Tsarist government, this is not their business. Anyway, as long as it disrupts Russia, their purpose will be achieved.

In fact, the tsarist government's domestic political control was still very loose. In May 1887, when Lenin entered the Faculty of Law of Kazan University, he was expelled from the student movement and exiled to Kazan's remote rural areas for surveillance and residence. The village where Ulyanov's brother-in-law lives in Samara Province is publicly monitored by the police.

In 1900, he was allowed to return to St. Petersburg, but he went to Western Europe to continue his revolutionary career and wrote a large number of revolutionary books. He has since become one of the actual leaders of the Russian Revolution.

The Great Revolution broke out in Russia in 1905, and Lenin naturally joined in. Until the failure of the Russian Revolution in 1907, he was forced into exile.

This revolution undoubtedly angered the tsarist government. As one of the leaders of the revolution, Lenin naturally also entered the blacklist of the tsarist government.

He emigrated to Geneva, Paris, Bern and other places. In 1916, Lenin moved from Bern to Zurich, and lived with his wife Krupskaya in the home of shoemaker Camerel.

At that time, Switzerland was a place where spies gathered. In order to avoid hunting, Lenin lived a very low-key life, hiding in the library every day to read books and no longer go out to do things.

Sometimes, he also uses the evening to convene a meeting in a small cafe infested by the proletariat to exchange ideas with them and lead a very fulfilling life.

Unlike in history, the Germans came to the door before the Russian revolution broke out.

Starting from the actual situation at that time, Russia did have the basis for a revolution. In order to complete the revolution to overthrow the tsarist government as soon as possible, he naturally did not mind cooperating with the capitalists once.

After all, the Bolshevik party ’s influence in Russia is now too low. After Nicholas II launched the St. Petersburg Purge, their most important basic plate is gone!

The cruel reality has been placed in front of the revolutionaries. This time the Tsar and the capitalists are fighting for power, and the Tsar, which has won the support of the military, has the upper hand.

If the Czar wins this struggle, the basis of the Tsar's dictatorship will become stronger, and the revolution will be in the foreseeable future!

In this context, the major anti-government forces in Russia achieved convergence for the first time. Although they could not form trust with each other because of their different political ideas, they still came together to overthrow the rule of the Tsarist government.

And the St. Petersburg purge launched by Nicholas II this time did not leave no hidden dangers. For example, he ignored "legality"!

The most typical is that the executed prisoners also included more than 100 members of parliament. They were sent to the gallows before they were deprived of their membership. This became the anti-government forces' attack on Nicholas II. The best excuse for impure times for St Petersburg Sturge!

Outside of St. Petersburg, capitalists still have a great deal of control. Therefore, in many places where capitalists are powerful, this action of Nicholas II was characterized as follows: the white terror rule adopted by the tsar in order to rule out aliens!

This wounded Nicholas II very much. Even with the support of the army, he still couldn't do it to control all Russian cities.

The core factor is that the Russian bureaucracy ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ has been corrupted by capitalists. In the short term Nicholas II could not find so many qualified officials to replace them.

This created favorable conditions for the revolutionaries. Lenin did not go to St. Petersburg after returning home. He knew there was no basis for revolution.

Instead, he came to Russia, a metropolis—Moscow, which is Russia ’s largest city in St. Petersburg, with hundreds of thousands of workers, creating a mass foundation for the Bolshevik party ’s activities.

A very funny scene appeared, while cooperating with capitalists, and anti-capitalists. Of course, this scene has also appeared in the February Revolution in Russia!
