Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2363 Protegodiabolica (Part 2)

If you count the pedigree of the Marie Rose Josephine Tachy de la Pageli family, her family is the oldest knightly nobleman from the Middle Ages, dating back to the time of the Crusades, with at least 800 years of history.

   may only be able to match the same old family as the Roon family, and even the Prince Ahrenberg family is not so old. Josephine is acceptable to the old nobles who don't have a pedigree of more than four generations. Whenever an old lady begs her to find a job for their grandson, she always agrees softly. , this is known far and wide.

   It’s just that the old Duchess of Areenberg didn’t expect that Bonaparte would not be accompanied by Josephine on this trip, but Georgiana, a “wild girl” who didn’t know where she came from.

The old duchess did not want to contact Georgiana. She felt that Napoleon was Josephine's husband. Since Josephine was so "kind", Napoleon was also kind and just. Napoleon soon recognized the seventh generation of Arenberg. The legitimacy of the duke's identity, while the sixth duke is still living in Vienna.

  Josephine does not always accept bribes and gifts to help others. She really likes a luxurious life, but she is also happy to distribute gifts. Many people in the palace have been "bribed" by her.

   Her unthinking attitude towards spending money needs to be reined in, and Bonaparte and her often quarrel over money. But her generosity in office was a bigger threat than lavish shopping, the way she tried to make money was more destructive, she was always with corrupt contractors, and signed the Peace of Amiens She was engaged in foreign exchange trading before, and ended up destroying the man who was her agent.

   If it wasn't for her ex-husband's violence against her, she would not have taken the initiative to go to a place like the monastery, and even the monastery she went to was full of various characters, such as Madame Talyan, "Our Lady of Thermidor".

  The condition of the monastery is of course different from the St. Catherine's Church where Georgiana went, but St. Catherine's Church and the nearby Beguinage are not the worst, at least they look neat and clean.

The situation in the Alsace region has surpassed the most chaotic slums in Paris. Napoleon's gendarmerie was mainly composed of uncommissioned officers in the regular army, not only well-disciplined, educated, but also participated in at least 3 domestic or foreign battles , including the Vendée rebellion.

The    Rangers consisted of six people, mainly infantry, instead of the cavalry of the old era. They only patrolled the road on horseback, while the infantry had to go deep into the forest, which was more suitable for the complex terrain where bandits appeared.

   Gendarmes are the real fangs, although the Guards may feel unconvinced because they are also the best of the best.

   But these gendarmes are regarded as devils by the citizens of Paris, and the Guards are the "darlings" living in the sun. Even in the most insecure and remote rural areas, the gendarmes still have a deterrent effect.

The gendarmes were dispatched to arrest Tukash to see what the chaos was going on. Schendelhannes was deeply rooted in Napoleon's "war to support war", and his team was expanding rapidly. This secret operation was only possible when the forces united and revived the rebellion under the banner of bandits.

"Chaos" was extremely detrimental to women, and Georgiana knew that Josephine was trying to cultivate a kind of chivalry at court that was "very different" from the gentleman officers that Louis XV had trained to go to court .

   This couple is so magical.

  It was not difficult to find a German-speaking staff member in the entourage, and soon someone was "reading" the pamphlet on "Correcting the Public Commentary on the French Revolution" for Georgiana and Bonaparte:

It is said that war nurtures people, and it is true, it elevates our souls, makes us heroic in emotion and behavior, makes us contempt for danger and death, makes us despise possessions that are likely to be looted every day, makes us Deep sympathy for all creatures with a human face. However, these words must not be taken as a compliment to your bloodthirsty war desires, when the wailing human beings are begging you in a low voice, thinking that they are begging you to stop letting human beings kill each other in **** battles to plunder and oppress the defenseless weak.

   If you judge only by this principle, then you will know nothing, and you will be worse than your irrational age allowed you.

  I have conducted serious research before God and found that you have used your will to dictatorship internally and expand your borders externally. I admit that I don't understand that in your entire country no one is allowed to have an opinion, how can we achieve the goal of liberating our will?

   Every unrestricted monarchy is constantly striving to become a monarchy that dominates the world. If we block this source, my disaster will be fundamentally eliminated. If no one wants to invade us any more, we don't need to be armed anymore, then there is no need for the dreadful war and the even more dreadful, never-ending preparations, and you no longer need to be so directly committed to you dictatorship.

  The tendency of all monarchies lies in the implementation of unlimited dictatorship within the team and the absolute monarchy to rule the world outside. This is a truth that has been proved by a priori basis and the whole history.

   Therefore, you also become tyrants...

"enough."

  Georgianna stopped the staff officer, and she gave Bonaparte a special look, who was smiling.

   "You go down first." She said to the staff.

The    staff did not move, he looked at Bonaparte.

   "Go and rest, I'll call you if something happens."

   The staff officer saluted, then turned and left.

   "Should I warn Metternich?" asked Georgiana.

   "Want something to drink?" he said standing up.

   "I'm not thirsty," she said indifferently.

   But her opinion didn't help much, so he brought two glasses of wine.

"discuss about your opinion."

   "Would you ask Josephine the same question?" she asked.

   "I don't think she will have access to that book, that's your problem." He sighed "But I don't want to argue with you about it."

"why?"

   He took a sip of wine. "Tell me what you think."

   He found that he was looking at her seriously.

"Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, that in the art of war, you can't come if you don't rely on me, you can't attack if you don't rely on it, and you can't attack if you rely on it. It means that you don't want the enemy not to come, but to Rely on yourself to be fully prepared and stand by, don’t expect the enemy to not attack, but rely on yourself to have the conditions that the enemy cannot break, and let yourself be unarmed and only become a fish for others to slaughter.”

   "Don't you want peace?" he asked.

"It is a peace of reciprocity." She emphasized, "The Holy Roman Emperor who sold Turkish captives just now was Leopold I. He took in Prince Eugen and realized the rejuvenation of the Holy Roman Empire, while Louis Fourteen would have had a chance."

   "What do you want to say?"

"Talent, the Prussian troops are of high quality, not only because they have excellent generals, but even without us, other countries would invade them." She curled her hair, "I heard that there was a ball game in Bavaria, and there were A fan was dissatisfied with the coach's command, left the stand and punched the coach, the coach returned fire, and beat the fan badly, the court acquitted the coach, although the fan was more seriously injured than him."

   "You speak of self-defense," said Bonaparte. "One cannot give up the right of self-defense, can he?"

   She didn't answer.

   "Do you think, then, that I should warn the man of childish fantasies?" asked Bonaparte.

   "No need," she whispered.

   "I have only one piece of advice, be the master of your destiny." He whispered, "Think about it."

"what?"

   "Is there really no need for a warning?"

   She was speechless.

   "I'm not going to your place tonight, do you still want to go swimming tomorrow morning?"

   She nodded.

   "Bring your guards, don't be like today." He gave an ordering look.

   She stuck her tongue out at him, turned and left his suite.
