Until Napoleon left sight and headed for Grenoble. Huang Xuan did not pull the trigger after all.
Not only because of the fear of "killing", but also because of Napoleon himself. Napoleon in Lamere Village was the most charismatic commander in human history. At that moment, he relied on his personal charm and years of accumulated achievements to fight without a single blow. Recruited and surrendered an opposing army that far exceeded its own strength.
This is the greatest praise and affirmation for him. The cheers, like mountain roars and ocean waves, inadvertently infected Huang Xuan.
Lorraine didn't complain about Huang Xuan, or in other words, he didn't know what to complain about at all. He helped Huang Xuan put away the gun. He said calmly: "Since we have lost this opportunity, we can only go back to Lyon."
Huang Xuan didn't know what to say, so he got up silently and said, "Lorraine, we must, um, I mean, deal with, uh, Napoleon? Or we can change the target."
"It's not up to us." Lorraine said simply: "We have already arrived here, so unless we waste the energy we spent on coming home, there is only this way to go."
"Maybe we can try to do something else, like..."
"Like what?"
"Kill Wellington?" Huang Xuan was talking about the British commander in the Battle of Waterloo.
Lorraine said seriously: "We don't have time to find Wellington."
"Then change to another one..."
Huang Xuan was still thinking, and Lorraine said: "Napoleon's defeat is already certain. Even if he wins the Battle of Waterloo, he will fail in the eighth anti-French alliance, or the ninth. If we really If it allows Napoleon to establish a European super empire, then this plane will almost certainly collapse, and at that time, everyone in the plane will die. "
"Let's go to Lyon first." Before Huang Xuan could say anything else, Lorraine urged him to get on the road.
The town that had just gone through the war did not lose its vitality. Huang Xuan successfully rented an ox cart with 0 francs. A bold French young man volunteered to drive for Huang Xuan until he found a carriage or arrived in Lyon.
Lyon City.
MacDonald worked hard to organize his army to resist Napoleon's advance. This is the second largest city in France, and Louis XVIII had high expectations for him.
If history is followed, Napoleon will capture Lyon without firing a shot, just as he firmly believes - France does not have any royal army at all, only Napoleon's army, the emperor's army, an army under the Bourbon dynasty The army spent 11 months under the white flag.
However, this is almost the last glory of His Majesty the Emperor.
Huang Xuan carefully walked through the once bustling streets of Lyon. The exiled nobles continued to go into exile, and the merchants closed their shops. Most people welcomed His Majesty the Emperor, but not everyone.
At this tense moment, no one paid attention to a yellow man, or maybe they were just a little weird about Huang Xuan, who had yellow skin and dark eyes. He covered his black hair and tried to look normal.
Walking in the alleys of Lyon, you feel like you are in the Middle Ages - this is a nation that never lacks imagination, just like China. However, the roosters of Gaul always encountered some ambitious commanders, and interestingly, the most famous commanders often came from foreign countries: Caesar, Octavian, or Napoleon.
Among the shops that are still open, restaurants are the most popular. The history of French cuisine among the people probably started with Louis XIII. Louis XIV held many cooking competitions in the Palace of Versailles. The winner was given a ribbon by the queen. Guess, just a guess. , maybe the kiss on the queen’s hand promoted the development of French cuisine. Louis XVIII, now the king of the Bourbon dynasty, had a father and grandfather who loved gourmet food, but he himself was probably keen to escape and did not have time to enjoy it in the Palace of Versailles. That's Napoleon's prerogative!
Huang Xuan spent 8 francs on a sumptuous meal. The same meal would have cost about 100 francs in Paris in the first century. If it were in Beijing, it would be equivalent to 8,000 francs.
Walking out of the street, Huang Xuan pretended to accidentally drop a 50-gram directional biological bomb on the ground.
This was Lorraine's last resort. If he unfortunately reached an inaccessible or even no-man's land, he would look for a volcano or geological fault, and then, with a "boom", detonate all the directional bombs.
To this end, Lorraine brought a full 50 kilograms, which is equivalent to an equivalent of 80,000 tons*, which is several times higher than the atomic bomb that exploded in Hiroshima. However, in terms of lethality, the atomic bomb is still the most terrifying. Its main lethality lies in nuclear radiation and nuclear pollution. The thing in Huang Xuan's hand is only worthy of praise for its explosive power.
Carefully drop a piece of biological bomb on the street. These things, which are kneaded into the size of Chinese medicine pills, will automatically adsorb to the ground, then gradually seep into the surface, and degrade over time. In other words, if it never detonates, Within a few foreseeable years, they will once again become nutrients for microorganisms.
This street will be the only way for Napoleon's army to enter the city. Huang Xuan completed Lorraine's homework in a daze, and the watcher also remained silent during the process.
On March 10, Napoleon's troops came to the city.
Guarding Lyon was the king's brother, Count Artois, who volunteered to come here, dreaming of using his loyalty to the Bourbons to encourage Lyon workers to cut off Napoleon's path forward. The results are predictable.
Huang Xuan was still standing on a distant hilltop, which was 4 kilometers away from the battlefield, but his vision in the scope was still clearly visible.
In the European battlefields of the 19th century, the troop formations were similar to those of China's Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. Not only did they use dense formations as the main combat method, but they also had to be confined to a relatively small space due to the range of weapons. The battlefield of Borodino is only .5 miles (5.6km) square. The Battle of Waterloo, which saddened all military fans, saw 140,000 people on both sides and more than 400 artillery pieces packed into a place about the same size as Borodino. Wellington's British army was fully deployed on the Mont Saint Jean ridge, with a front face of only 500 yards (00 meters). Therefore, when Huang Xuan stood on the commanding heights nearby, the battlefield was clearly visible.
The only danger is that a certain commander has his eye on the same place. But that won't happen in Lyon.
Macdonald gave a speech before the formation, shouting almost at the top of his lungs. Through Lorraine's lip reading, Huang Xuan quickly understood that this commander who was destined to fail was trying to tell his soldiers: Once Napoleon wins, a new war with Europe will definitely break out.
However, the whole army was silent, a still, dry silence.
This silence also affected Huang Xuan, and his face, which was originally about to read Macdonald's joke, also darkened.
Napoleon Bonaparte appeared. He stood under the tricolor flag, wearing a three-cornered hat and neatly trimming the officer's shirt. He held his head high, as if he had won.
"Huang Xuan, aim."
He did so, but quickly stood up as well.
Because the battlefield is boiling.
Macdonald's army shouted the slogan: "Long live the Emperor" with a voice that could be heard throughout the city of Lyon. They lowered their muzzles and rushed towards Napoleon's army. The two sides soon formed a torrent. Napoleon was quickly overwhelmed by the excitement of his soldiers.
Huang Xuan's hand on the trigger loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened again, and finally dropped the MX109, sat on the grass, and shouted, "Lorraine, I can't do it."
"You have to do it." Lorraine said seriously: "If we go home with nothing, we have to start over. We may never be able to catch the traveler again. Huang Xuan, do you really want to give up? Give up on yourself? Give up your grandpa."
Huang Xuan packed up his rifle with an expressionless expression, knelt on the grass, and said with hazy eyes: "Why do you speak so sensationally?"
