In Budapest, the capital of Hungary, the atmosphere of the revolution is unusually strong. There were people singing the Internationale everywhere in the walking room, and there were also people preaching revolutionary ideas in every square.

Hungarians in Budapest believe that the future will get better and better. Because the newly formed Soviet government announced that workers would implement an eight-hour work system, and men and women would be paid the same for equal work. It also announced the nationalization of banks, mines, large industrial enterprises, transportation vehicles and large real estate. All enterprises and factories with more than 20 employees shall be nationalized.

In addition, the Hungarian Soviet government promulgated a decree that foreign trade should be monopolized by the state, and established the Supreme National Economic Committee to manage the country's economic work. Correspondingly, local committees for the national economy were established in the industrial centers. At the same time, the land nationalization decree was passed, and landlords with an area of ​​more than 100 holts were nationalized and converted into state farms.

The series of measures taken by the new Hungarian government are indeed much better than before, but the world is not distinguished by good or bad.

So when the enthusiasm for work broke out in the new government, the news that surrounding countries were gathering forces to invade Hungary also reached the top of the government's desk.

Bella Kuhn, currently chairman of the People’s Committee of the new Hungarian regime, immediately convened a meeting of various committee members to discuss the armed intervention of the surrounding countries.

At the beginning of the parliament, Bella Kuhn took out a telegram to the People’s Commissar present: “Comrades, this is a telegram sent back by our comrades working on the secret front. The three countries around us, the Czech Republic, Serbia, and Romania, Encouraged by the imperial powers, we want to send troops to intervene in our choice and extinguish the flames of the revolution. Comrades, can we accept it?"

"No." "Absolutely not."

Bella Kuhn’s agitation and propaganda are still doing well. The other twelve people’s commissars and fifteen people’s deputy commissars present all unanimously opposed foreign interference.

Although we don't know how many of them are sincere, we can still work together in momentum. This is exactly the result Bella Kuhn wanted. He knew that the establishment of the Hungarian Communist Party was too short, and it was less than five months after it was full.

The Communist Party members have grown from 17 people brought home by themselves to 460,000 now. The result of the rapid and explosive development is that many of the members who joined did not even know who Marx was. And how many of these are for the benefit of speculators, even he himself is not clear.

Unlike the original time and space, this time the Hungarian Communist Party did not form a coalition government with the Social Democratic Party, but formed a Soviet power alone. It just absorbed some people with high popularity to join the government to ensure the authority of the new government.

But even so, Bella Kuhn is full of worries about the Communist Party. For this reason, he also sent a telegram to Comrade Lenin who was far away in Russia to ask about it. Your tutor, who was also troubled by this question, called him back.

"Comrade Bella Kuhn, this issue is actually bothering us. But I have a preliminary idea about this. We can first comfort these unstable elements for observation, and wait for the situation to become clear before distinguishing. . However, these people need to be coerced in power to prevent them from doing things that are not conducive to the organization."

And Lenin's thoughts on Soviet Russia inspired Bella Kuhn, and he can do the same. However, it is now necessary to identify whether there are such unresolute elements in the top government.

In the meeting, after Bella Kuhn finished his opening remarks, Vantush, who also returned from Soviet Russia as a diplomatic commissar, immediately said: "Chairman Kuhn is right, imperialism instigates three puppet regimes. The attempt to kill our revolution will not succeed. We must mobilize the masses to let these imperialists know the fighting spirit of the Hungarian people."

"That's right, we have to let these imperialist doglegs know how powerful it is."

"No one can force the revolutionary masses in Hungary."

Van Tus’s words drew loud approval from the committee members present. These communists, who are still full of passion, are dissatisfied with the great powers.

But at this time, a voice that seemed not so harmonious came out. "I think we can talk to neighboring countries. After all, war is not a good thing for us."

Everyone heard this discordant voice, looking for the prestige that this is the former Socialist, now serving as the education committee member Herrico.

Hérico, who was stared at by everyone, explained: "After all, we have been fighting for four years, and the domestic economy has been overwhelmed."

Regarding Herric's remarks, there was a counterattack immediately during the meeting. "You are capitulationism. People inspired by revolutionary sentiments will not be afraid of these imperialist running dogs."

"Commissioner Herrico, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I think Mr. Herrico himself is afraid."

The rushing condemnation made Herico completely unable to continue speaking, especially the contemptuous look in everyone's eyes made him feel embarrassed.

At this time, Bella Kuhn said: "Herico is just expressing his views, you don't have to react like this."

Then he asked about Herrico. "Do you still insist on your point of view now?"

Herico, who had been educated by everyone long ago, waved his head again and again, indicating that he had given up.

At this time, the internal affairs committee also said from Sidler, who returned from Soviet Russia: "Since everyone agrees to fight the doglegs of these imperial powers. Then we will fully mobilize the revolutionary masses to join the People's Army in order to defend the Soviet power. Make your own contribution."

Sidler’s words made the committee members nodded again and again. At this time, Bella Kuhn opened his mouth and said to a committee member on the right hand: “Commissioner Landrell, the government calls on the people to be done by us, and lead them. The job of defeating the enemy requires you."

Sitting third on the right, and one of the few members of the People’s Committee who understands military affairs, Landrell immediately stood up and said: "Please rest assured that the chairman and the committee members, I will not let the enemy’s attempt be achieved. The People’s Army is capable of protecting it. Soviet power."

After making the assurance, Landrell then talked about the difficulties: "However, the People's Army currently lacks weapons, and the ammunition resources are also insufficient. I don't know if the government can think of a solution."

Faced with the difficulties Landrell said, Sidler said: "This is not a problem. We will let the comrades in the arsenal work overtime to produce weapons to defend themselves. In addition, we can also order the collection of surviving civilians. We can also give priority to ensuring the use of the army in terms of weapons and ammunition, and other materials."

For the assurance given by Sidler, Landrell was less worried. But there are still some minor issues, he thinks he still needs to talk about it first. "At present, the officers of the People's Army are somewhat inadequate, and we need to find a way. Moreover, this time the revolutionary masses are enlisted to join the army. Some of them can't even use weapons. Would you like to train them alone first?"

Faced with the new difficulties that Landrell said, Bella Kuhn said: "There are not enough officers. You can promote the soldiers who do well in normal days. As for the problem of many people who do not use weapons, I think It’s also simple. You can take advantage of this time to train them and wait until they get to the battlefield. Training alone is too time-consuming, and war may come at any time. We can’t be too slow.”

"If you do this, the casualties will be great."

Landrell’s words made Diplomat Vantush a little dissatisfied, and he rebuked: “The revolution will inevitably lead to bloodshed and sacrifice. Our experience in Russia has already taught this truth. Now it is the Soviets that are facing dog-leg military intervention by the imperialist powers. It’s a matter of life and death. We don’t have enough time to demand this and that. We can only mobilize the people and the enemy to fight **** battles. Only in this way, we can lead the Hungarian people to live a happy life."

Feeling Vantush's voice a little heavy, Bella Kuhn calmed Landrell. "Commissioner Vantush's words are a bit heavy, but this is just out of love for Hungary. According to our experience in Soviet Russia, many revolutionary masses will soon become qualified fighters after training on the battlefield. So There is some truth in what Committee member Vantus said."

Regarding the optimism of the people present, Landrell, who knows the military, does not agree with him. The experience of the Russian civil war is completely inappropriate here~lightnovelpub.net~What kind of army is Soviet Russia facing, and Hungary will face What kind of army is right? The two are completely incomparable.

The two Russian armies were born out of the Russian army, so the gap between them is not big, and the characteristics of the Russian nation and the structure of the army also allow its people to quickly adapt. Hungary is born with a gap with neighboring countries. If you rely on the experience of Russia, the two are completely incomparable. However, Landrell could not continue to say these words, to see who was against him, these were basically Communist veterans who had returned from Soviet Russia. If I object to it again, I probably won't have a good fruit.

With Landrell's silence, the meeting soon reached a resolution. Conscript materials and equipment, and let the revolutionary masses join the army to defend Soviet power.

Subsequently, the government successively issued bills on conscripting the army and collecting national supplies. In just ten days, the Hungarian government enlisted 100,000 people, and weapons and equipment that were strayed among the people were also part of the search.

However, the war will not follow the steps of the Hungarian government. When they first enlisted a hundred thousand people, the Romanian army that had been prepared crossed the Tisza River.

The war broke out.
