Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 2294 scarlet woman (eight)
As Bonaparte said before, few of the peasants are educated, and they do not have a broad vision of the world. These hardworking peasants never look beyond their own farms and the markets they love to go to. They are satisfied For the life in front of me, I am obedient to obey the preaching of the church.
For those who belong to the past, their only hope is to live well in an unchanging world, and "change" is not necessarily a good thing for them.
The French take it for granted that priests are the kind who can fool people, and that the villagers will be deceived. When they occupied Belgium, they demolished many cathedrals and seminaries, and promoted "freedom and equality" to the Belgian people. , which aroused fierce resistance from the locals.
At that time, the Jacobins were in power. In Condorcet's vision, the public spirit of all citizens should be shaped through enlightenment philosophy, but Robespierre and Marat opposed this.
All in all, the education reform was a catastrophic failure. Thousands of new primary schools were not planned. The original French secondary schools, colleges and even military schools were abolished, and only science, business and agriculture were taught. The central school was opened, and it also opened to Belgium and the Rhineland area, exactly the same as the one established in mainland France.
This is also the focus of Robespierre's reform—equality, including test scores, but personality must be perfected.
The general in charge of attacking Belgium at that time was Jourdan, the son of a surgeon. The Austrian army deployed in the Low Countries was organized at Fleurus by Carnot and Saint-Just a month before the Thermidor coup. The onslaught of the artillery was indeed earth-shattering. Originally, Austria's equipment was more sophisticated, but it was defeated.
After this battle, the French occupied Brussels again, and occupied Liege and Antwerp almost at the same time as Robespierre's downfall. Even though the fresh water would freeze, the river outside Amsterdam froze in 1795, and it will also be in Amsterdam The ships of the British Royal Navy cruising outside the city were frozen, and the weather that allowed cavalry to cross the river on ice was still rare. Jourdan had no military education, but only participated in the American Revolutionary War.
Only self-confidence can make things happen, and the importance of a sound personality lies in this, but the temporary representatives of Brussels, Antwerp, Mechelen, Leuven, and Namur jointly drafted a manifesto, refusing to recognize the orders of the French and the general principles of the French Revolution. The principles of the world, that is, "liberty and equality".
The revolutionaries didn't believe it at first. They felt that most of the Belgians were just being deceived by fallacies and prejudices, plus some people who were delusional and deceived by French exiles who betrayed the three-level parliament and served the old rulers. eyes. But for the Belgian commoners, the French are no different from the Austrians who were the original rulers here. It is not that they hate the occupation, but what irritates them is the contempt for the priests and the faith by outsiders.
They set up sentries outside the church, seized the sacraments, crosses, wine jugs and silverware. Whether it was day or night, there would be conflicts between Belgians and French soldiers. The Jacobins were insulted, attacked and chased in the street. , and even sentries will be killed. But they are still very popular in some places, such as the "little fishmongers" in Brussels. They were oppressed by the big fishmongers, and then they found that the new order rescued them, so they changed their beliefs and did not want to continue to be "priests". and monks" to cheat in support of defenders of human rights.
Originally, the French government agreed to intervene minimally in the Netherlands and let the Dutch themselves shape the future of their republic. It is true that he did not set foot on the territory of the Netherlands, but what happened to the Industrial Credit Bank?
At this time, someone refuted it again. Augereau's dissolution of the Dutch Parliament is not interference? The "Governor of the Netherlands" amending the constitution to install his own people is not interference? They can be regarded as members of the French government, and Napoleon's move can at least make them more peaceful.
There are quite a lot of pro-British, pro-Prussian and exiles in the Netherlands. After the French army stepped across the frozen river in 1795, they wiped out the monarch and the British-Prussian forces. Compared with the well-organized French army, when the British-Prussian army retreated Whole cities and villages were plundered wantonly, as if the scenes of the Seven Years War were repeated.
Unlike the "Potato War", the Seven Years' War was known for setting fire to cities and field battles that caused heavy losses. Everywhere the army passed was reduced to scorched earth.
History is written by people, and the standards for measuring justice are different for individuals and nations. Starting from Henry IV, France wanted to become the suzerain of the small German princes, but the French king during the reign of Frederick II was Louis XV, by comparison, was more difficult to deal with, including Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Maria Theresa of Austria.
Frederick promised the King of France to use the Rhine River as the border between the two countries, but he expected that sooner or later the French would still cross the Rhine River. At that time, Britain was expanding its colonies and lacked soldiers, so it "purchased" soldiers from the German princes. The public price of each soldier is 7 to 8 pounds, the actual transaction price will be higher, and half of their salary will fall into the pockets of the princes.
Since Frederick I, the German princes have been learning from Versailles. In short, as long as France is clamped on the border of the Rhine, Prussia can continue to expand on the right bank of the Rhine. Prussia is the "natural enemy" of the church state. They were born with the task of secularization. How could they send ambassadors to the Vatican as special envoys?
The death knell of the country's subjugation has already sounded. Some people choose to take advantage of the opportunity to make a profit, and some people resist to the death, poisoning Napoleon to death, and causing chaos in France. In this way, whoever divides it will not know.
Alexander VI had a poison called Cantrella, the composition of which was unknown, one was because of the technical conditions at the time, and it was impossible to test it, and the other was because the victims who died of Cantrella were all red. Cardinal, no one wants to dissect the remains of a cardinal.
There are so many poisons in the world, plant, animal, chemical synthetic, who knows which one?
Reconciliation with the Church was one of Napoleon's strengths, but he did not make full use of it, and what was worse, no matter how much Bonaparte wanted to masquerade as "Sun King", there was a past that followed him.
He used to be a Jacobin, and because of the excavation of Robespierre Jr., he made his debut in the Battle of Toulon, and because of his close relationship with the Jacobins, he was investigated after the Thermidor coup, and It was hidden for a while, and Ballas didn't remember it until the Puyue Riot.
How can a person who shoots at the people get the love and support of the people? However, when Napoleon ran back to Paris from Egypt, he was welcomed like a hero. People still believe that he can start a new world and start a new and happy century.
"Didn't the others notice the anomaly that happened just now?" Georgiana asked after a while.
"Some people have noticed." Matilda looked at the serious guard members. "The atmosphere has also changed now."
"They didn't say anything?"
"Take it as ignorance," said Matilda. "Everyone is watching."
Georgiana looked around. There were several eyes looking at her just now, and now they all turned their eyes.
"Go on," said Georgiana.
Matilda looked very displeased.
"What's wrong?"
"Everyone knows that I am your maid. As soon as I got close to them, I changed the subject. I also asked others to inquire about those things just now."
Georgiana tried to curse, but refrained.
She oversimplified the problem and thought it would be easy to promote beet growing in Belgium.
She was so wrong, and then she remembered the "fashion show" in Bruges, and she wanted to go back in time.
Bonaparte didn't seem to be wrong when he scolded her last night. In Belgium, it's important to be serious.
She wanted Matilda to get something to drink, but she gave up when she remembered that the drink might be poisoned.
When the hell is this dance going to end?
