Chapter 993: Paris is crying

Views:

"The international community has put a lot of pressure on us, and now the opportunity has come, we should end this damn war as soon as possible!"

"No! Paris is a mess right now. Anyone who falls into it will be buried. If you listen to it, you will know that there is a shortage of food in the city.

The chaotic party cannot afford refugees, and neither can we. You must know that we have already resettled 3 million refugees, and if there is another 1 million, the scene is simply unimaginable! "

"Don't say it so scary, as long as you find a way, the problem can always be solved. The international community keeps urging us to end the war as soon as possible. Now is the best chance."

"The premise of ending the war is that you can afford to support so many refugees! After the scourge of the chaotic party, it is estimated that all the people of Paris will now become refugees.

We don't have that much food in our hands, and even buying it from abroad immediately takes time. If the rioters burn down the granary in the city, it really hits the jackpot. "

Everyone was arguing, which made Carlos bitter. As the king's reserve, at this time, he is really not suitable to intervene.

If you support an attack, you will cause trouble for yourself; if you oppose attacking a city, you will be accused of dying.

Disputes within the aristocratic group are essentially due to interests. Vienna could persuade the three royalists on the issue of succession, but could not help with the division of interests.

When it comes to vital interests, no matter who they are, they must stand up and fight. The current situation is very obvious, the nobles of the orthodox faction are opposed to the siege, and the nobles of the other two factions are supported and opposed by some.

Essentially, this also involves wagering. The orthodox faction has always been a supporter of the Bourbon dynasty, and they made a big bet on Carlos early on. Once the restoration is successful as a major hero, they will definitely get the biggest piece of the cake.

The other two factions were different. Those who responded quickly followed and placed bets, while those who responded slowly did nothing, and the battle for the throne was settled.

After the outbreak of the civil war, the nobles who had already made bets became the core of this noble coalition army; although other nobles also made great efforts, they were still a step behind and were in a secondary position in the coalition army.

If the restoration is completed smoothly, then in the future government construction of France, it will basically be the same as it is now. The core characters are still the core, and the peripheral characters are still on the fringes.

Some nobles who are not satisfied with the status quo are now clamoring to break through Paris, preparing to take over millions of mouths in the city.

The provisional government had limited food supplies, and the nobles who supported Bourbon had long since donated generously to relieve the refugees. Now that so many mouths are suddenly added, there will definitely be problems with the food supply.

Opportunities arise when food supplies run short. In order to survive the food crisis, the provisional government had to turn to the wealthy nobles for help, and these marginalized guys could return to the center of power.

The power struggle has always been cruel, and now the people in Paris have unfortunately become the focus of the game between the two sides. What the final result will be, no one knows now, the only certainty is that this quarrel will not end for a while.

The reserve king is not a king, no matter how many supporters there are, as long as he does not officially ascend the throne for one day, Carlos cannot exercise the power of the king.

At the moment, apart from reconciling the conflicts of all parties as much as possible, Carlos, the reserve king, can't do anything in essence, and is slightly better than the mascot.

The aristocratic group quarreled endlessly, but the situation in the city was completely out of control. Once Pandora's Box is opened, it is difficult to close it again.

Daniel's bitter plan has now turned into a tragic drama. There is no way, he just calculated the first step correctly, but overestimated the efficiency of the noble group.

The chaos in Paris is indeed the best time to send troops to attack the city, but sending troops also has to be discussed by all parties, not whoever has the loudest voice will listen.

Then, a tragic scene happened. The bait was almost soaked, and the fish were still sleeping at home.

Binggui does not exist quickly, and people are still busy with meetings. Even if an agreement is reached, so many landmines outside the city cannot be lined up in a short time.

The allied army of nobles can write ink, but the situation in the city cannot wait. The Parisians who protested unsuccessfully revolted in a fit of rage. Whether he likes it or not, for now Daniel must put down the rebellion first.

It is conceivable that the later scenes are definitely not easy to sing. The noble coalition was not tricked in, let alone turning defeat into victory, and even had no chance to run away.

Not everyone is as passionate as Danielle, willing to give everything for the revolution, and more people are still for their own lives. The reason why everyone agrees to this unreliable bitter tactic is mainly to create an opportunity to run away.

To be able to become a high-level revolutionary government, one's background is not too low, and there must be no shortage of personal connections, or else he would have seen God long ago.

French aristocrats are not monolithic, as long as they are willing to spend money, it is not a problem at all to find a way. It's really not possible, you can also buy roads from the Russians.

It's just that there is a prerequisite for these, and the landmines outside the city must be removed first. That thing doesn't know anyone, and anyone who steps on it will blow up.

Originally, they were going to drive the refugees to Lei, but they were stopped by Danielle. Perhaps it was because they realized that manual thunderstorms were unreliable, and the troubles were very serious, so everyone accepted the "bitter plan" with kindness.

It's a pity that the plan didn't change quickly. The big show had already started, but the audience was blocked outside. This performance was considered a waste.

The chaotic people are definitely not the opponents of the regular army. Even if the revolutionary army is a rabble, it is a rabble armed with weapons, and it is not something that ordinary people can fight against.

But the people have no way out, they are either starved to death, or give up, they can only do their best to survive.

In order to gain the support of the coalition forces outside the city, the insurgents even played the Bourbon flag. A nobleman appeared out of nowhere and became the temporary commander-in-chief of the rebel army.

The effect is naturally there. After discovering the existence of his own people, Carlos, as the reserve king, still used his own energy and used the airship to empty a batch of weapons and equipment to the rebel army.

Forget the food, Carlos is not stupid. He knows what the rebels are, and he can cause trouble for the enemy with weapons and equipment; if the food is thrown, maybe they will do it first.

This can be seen from the direction of the rebel army's attack, all of which are aimed at food. The so-called strategic locations, government buildings and bank buildings are all left unattended.

The most tragic scene happened. A war broke out around the granary uprising army and the government army. The streets and alleys of Paris were full of shouts and killings. People who were unwilling to endure starvation joined the uprising.

Blood flowed down the sewers, staining the Seine red. The red river watermark looks particularly desolate in the autumn. Since then, the French never eat river fish again.

The battle continued from morning to night. Blood makes people lost, and the situation is completely out of control in the constant fighting.

"Fuck it!"

This was the first reaction in Daniel's mind. At this stage, even if the fish is hooked, they can't close the net.

Daniel could never have imagined that the revolutionary government would stand in opposition to all the people in the city. You must know that the original plan was only to sacrifice some worthless refugees, not all the people of Paris.

It's a pity that the bureaucrats below don't think so. Once greed begins, it can't be stopped. Since the relief food of the refugees can be deducted, the relief food of the citizens can also be deducted, but the degree of oppression is different.

As the most revolutionary Parisian people in the world, how could they accept such humiliation. Seeing that the refugees launched an uprising, many people joined in in a daze.

At this stage, there is nothing to say, both sides are covered with each other's blood, and it will only end if one side falls.

"Revolutionary government that kills itself". As long as he thinks of the evaluation that future generations may give, Daniel's whole person is not well.

Of course, they are also alone. If you open the history books of France, you will find that there are several similar revolutionary governments. They are not the first, nor are they the last. Even if they are negative teaching materials, there are people who accompany them.

In a sense, the melee in Paris is both accidental and inevitable. From the beginning of the siege of the noble coalition, the food shortage of Paris was doomed to cry.
