The Spanish government has not yet made a decision, but the French Civil War has come to an end one step ahead. No matter how hard the new government in Paris tried, there would be no way to produce food.
The sky and the earth are big, filling the stomach is the biggest. Ordinary people, no matter what the overall situation of the revolutionary government, can't fill their stomachs today, who can care about tomorrow
Now there are only three paths in front of everyone: first, honestly accept the rule of the new government, and then starve to death; second, rush out to survive, if you are lucky, you may be able to avoid the minefield perfectly; third, Rebellion and recapture food from the revolutionary government.
Those who choose the first route have already starved to death. Even if they haven't starved to death, they only have half their lives left; those who choose the second route are either killed by bombing, or retreat and escape. The sky is not much more than the European bison.
(Note: European bison became extinct in 1627.)
In order to survive, more and more Parisians joined the uprising. The new government in Paris has been exhausted, more and more urban areas have been occupied by the rebels, and the situation has reached the most critical moment.
Danielle has long lost his high spirits in the past. This round of social beatings was so cruel that it extinguished all his fantasies.
The intellectuals, students, and gunmen who originally supported the new government have all changed their faces. How supportive they were before, and how hostile they are now, as if the situation was out of control because of their incompetence.
That said, it seems to make sense. Judging from the results alone, the performance of the new government is indeed not very good. But to say they are incompetent would be a real injustice.
If the only enemies were the royalists, the new government led by Danielle would have killed the Quartet long ago, and it is estimated that the whole country has been pacified by now.
It is a pity that the enemy they face is the entire European society. The advanced revolutionary ideas of the radicals are not only opposed by the aristocratic groups, but also by the bourgeoisie.
The ordinary people, who were supposed to be their biggest supporters, also stood against them because of their stomach problems. Looking up, the whole world is their enemy.
…
The roar of guns drew nearer, each time Paris was weeping. Seeing the enemy approaching, the captain of the guard dutifully reminded: "Mr. Danielle, the first division has collapsed, the enemy is coming this way, you should leave!"
Obviously, this is not the first time he has urged Daniel to run away. It's just that Daniel's will is firm and he has persisted until now.
"Leave, where do you think I can go if I leave now?"
"Instead of hiding in a corner and finally being caught by the enemy, it's better to wait for them here. Even Robert didn't run away. Am I better than a traitor?"
Politicians are not easy to be good, and once they get too deep into the drama, they can't come out. Now Danielle is too deep into the play, firmly believes that the hapless Robert is a traitor, and he is a hero who saves the people from water and fire.
Or he was deliberately numbing himself, preventing himself from sobering up, in order to escape the cruel reality.
After all, the situation is now clear, no matter who comes to power, he will not let go of the former leader. Who made him break the rules of the game first
Not only is the boss of him unable to escape, but the younger brothers behind him are also unable to escape the liquidation. But people are lucky, and Daniel's unwillingness to run doesn't mean that his subordinates won't run either.
Even if you can't get out of the city, but Paris is so big, you can just find a small corner and drill into it. In this chaotic age, it is not easy to find a person.
…
Not sending troops to attack the city does not mean that Carlos does not care about the development of the situation in the city. In order to control the intelligence at the first time, Carlos sent airships to reconnaissance every day.
The details cannot be known, but the general situation in the city, Carlos is still clear. Once the new revolutionary government is over, whether he wants to take over the mess of Paris, does not want to take over or must take over.
If possible, he'd rather take it a little later. Even if it will prolong his succession time, Carlos will not hesitate.
There is no way, one day earlier, it will take on the heavy responsibility of helping the people and restoring the economy. It's not that Carlos likes to avoid responsibility, the problem is that the mess is so big that taking it all at once is likely to crush his shoulders.
If there is not enough food to buy it, Vienna's control of food output is only for the revolutionary government, and the Bourbon Dynasty is not within the scope of restrictions. The only problem is that there is no money in the pocket.
Times are changing, and the cost of restoration is also rising. Even with the support of the noble group, after the formation of the restoration army and the resettlement of a large number of refugees, Carlos's pocket has long been empty.
"Borrowing money" is undoubtedly another headache. The huge debt of France has scared away all the international banks.
To raise money, Carlos started a frantic sale.
Overseas assets invested by the Bonaparte Dynasty—sold; a series of infrastructure including ports, roads, bridges, and parks—sold; state-owned banks, industrial and mining enterprises—sold; seized and confiscated chaotic party industries—sold…
In short, as long as there is an industry that can be realized, there is nothing that cannot be sold. If someone pays, it is estimated that Carlos does not mind selling Versailles.
The most regrettable thing is that the situation in France is now collapsing, and the originally valuable industry can only be sold at a floor price.
The floor price must also be sold, who makes them short of money? In general, Carlos has done one thing recently: raising money - buying food.
In the headquarters of the Allied Restoration Army, Lieutenant General Felix reminded: "His Royal Highness, the sound of gunfire in the city has weakened, and it seems that the battle is about to end.
The time to take Paris is coming, and now we need to organize manual demining and clear a road for the army to pass. "
When laying mines, it is so much fun; when clearing mines, it is so hard. No one knew that civil strife would break out in Paris, and the mines were laid as strictly as possible to prevent the enemy from rushing out.
The inner three layers and the outer three layers are densely packed with landmines. Even the soldiers in charge of burying mines can't remember exactly where they buried them now.
Facts have proved that the landmine siege method is indeed very effective, and the defenders in the city have been bombed for many times.
When it comes to clearing mines, it will be troublesome. This is a high-risk job. If you do not perform well, you will send yourself to the sky.
"Organize people to dig slowly. This kind of thing can't be rushed. The food in the city should be able to last for a few days. We still have time. If necessary, we can organize the airship to put food into the city."
All are high-sounding bad ideas, but Carlos said it without changing his face.
Slowly excavating, it seems to be responsible for the personal safety of the demining soldiers, but in fact, I want to take over the mess later.
Originally, the food in Paris could last for a while, but after this wave of civil war, it is unknown how many days it can last.
What's more, people's hearts are complicated. Even if there is food in the city, it is impossible to distribute it to everyone fairly. The end result is nothing more than that those in power continue to eat more and more meat, and ordinary people continue to suffer from starvation.
Airdropping food is even more nonsense. Just a few old and broken airships in their hands, at most a dozen tons of food are dropped into the city every day. It seems like a lot, but it's actually a drop in the bucket.
If you don't suffer from widowhood, but suffer from unevenness, if you don't have enough food, you can only grab it. In a sense, throwing food into the city is not solving the problem, but intensifying the conflict.
Knowing that it was a bad idea, Carlos had to adopt it, because now he had no better choice.
As a reserve king, there is always something to do when the people are in dire straits. Even if these measures have serious consequences, the starting point is always good.
Throughout the ages, there have been too many well-intentioned acts of bad deeds that have been forgiven in the end; while those who have truly done good deeds often face accusations of impure motives.
Being able to stand out from many candidates, Carlos is naturally not lacking in political skills. If it is really a waste, even if the nobles are willing to accept a useless puppet, the Bourbon Dynasty will not let him come out to shame.
The situation in France is so chaotic, no matter who goes up, if the means are not ruthless enough, don't even try to gain a firm foothold.
Looking at the problem from another angle, the more chaotic the current situation in Paris, the greater the casualties, and the smaller the hidden dangers that will be faced after receiving it in the future.
After this chaos is over, it is estimated that for a long time in the future, the people of Paris will hear about the Revolutionary Party.
…
The wheel of history is rolling forward and cannot be stopped by individual will. On December 7, 1893, the radical revolutionary regime led by Danielle was destroyed in the sea of people's war.
On December 10, the Bourbon Restoration Group led by Carlos officially entered Paris. On the 12th, Carlos was crowned king at the dilapidated Palace of Versailles, and France once again opened the Bourbon era.
The restoration was successful. Looking at the ruined Versailles Palace, Carlos, who recaptured the Bourbon country, was not happy at all.
The hard years have just begun, and not only Versailles has been ruined, but the whole of France is in ruins. Settling refugees, restoring the economy, and repaying debts became the three mountains that weighed on Carlos.
