Holy Roman Empire

Just as the Russian commanders were discussing plans to make a fortune, the situation in Paris was completely ruined. In the face of the constant influx of refugees, the revolutionary government was very weak.

The old order was broken and the new order established. This period happened to be the time when people's hearts were the most disturbed. If the revolutionary government of Paris is strong enough, it can also use thunder to shock people. Unfortunately, this happens to be something the revolutionary government does not possess.

There is no way, who won't let the revolutionary government take over? Not even a coup! It appears to be an armed seizure of power, but it was actually sent to them by Napoleon IV.

Even the revolutionary army, which was not even counted as a mob, could not be kept, and was disbanded in the subsequent political struggle.

In name, the government forces are under the command of the central government, but in fact it is not the case at all. Napoleon IV took the initiative and made arrangements before leaving, and the main generals in the army had long been replaced by direct lines.

The Bonaparte dynasty went into exile. I don't know how loyal these officers were to the emperor. Anyway, they must have no favor with the revolutionary government.

According to the normal rhythm, after the new government came to power, the Bonapartists in the army should be slowly purged, and then replaced by members of its own line.

Unfortunately, the Paris Revolutionary Government did not have that time. They entered the Anti-French Alliance as soon as they came to power.

When the main Allied forces withdrew one after another, the reputation of the revolutionary government was already stinking. At this time, it is too late to stabilize the military, let alone cleanse the military.

Without force, the revolutionary government will naturally not be strong. A weak government can neither deter bureaucrats nor capitalists.

The government's relief order is useless below, even if it is reluctantly implemented, most of the materials have been floated. Coupled with the capitalists' looting, ordinary people can no longer live their lives, let alone refugees.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. Although everyone's life before the Paris Revolution was bitter, they still lived on, at least filling their stomachs is not a problem.

On the contrary, after the success of the revolution, the situation took a turn for the worse. Not only was the powerful French empire gone, but even filling the stomach became a problem.

The popular support is gone, and splits have occurred within the Revolutionary Party. The radicals led by the Socialist Party believe that the Paris government has betrayed the revolution by colluding with capitalists internally and betraying the interests of France to the outside.

As the situation in Paris continues to deteriorate, the call for a second revolution is also increasing. More and more people of insight realized that the Parisian revolutionary government could not save France and wanted to overthrow the Paris government and establish an "ideal country" in their minds.

...

Affected by the influx of refugees, Paris in the evening is the most terrible. Theft, robbery, murder... all kinds of crimes continue to be staged in this city. Don't say it's ordinary people, even the police dare not go to the streets alone.

In order to save electricity costs, the city that never sleeps is now completely dark. The dark night provides convenience for crime, but also for...

"Are you all ready?"

"Don't worry, two hundred civil servants are already in place, and all 137 long and short guns have been distributed. As long as the headquarters' orders are issued, we will attack the arsenal!"

"The more this is the time, the more we must be cautious and vigilant. Recently, the reactionary government has not only expanded the police force, but also added a public security inspection bureau to eliminate dissidents.

In case the wind is leaked ahead of time, all previous efforts will be lost. They have never been merciless against opponents. "

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom..."

There was a knock on the door, interrupting the conversation between the two. A young man responded casually: "Who, what are you banging around in the middle of the night?"

"Open the door, check!"

The two looked at each other and realized they were going to suffer. If the police had worked so hard, they would have to go out on duty in the middle of the night, and the security in Paris would not have deteriorated so much.

"I haven't slept for half a year. What do you check? Do you have a search warrant from the court? Is it because you want to pretend to be a policeman and rob?

I'm telling you, I see a lot of this kind of routine, it's useless! If you're smart, just get out of the way, or let you taste the power of bullets! "

As he said, the young man took out his gun and deliberately made a sound of loading, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The policeman who had called the door lost his temper. He stepped back two steps and walked to the police chief who led the team and suggested: "Sheriff, what should I do? The person in front of you treats us as robbers. Or else we will withdraw first, tomorrow Get the search warrant and come back."

In France, the owner of a private house in France has the right to be killed directly, and even the police cannot enter the private house without obtaining a search warrant from the court.

Although the situation has changed after the revolutionary government came to power, the law still stipulates this. Even if the superiors will not be held accountable, the staff below are still deeply affected.

After all, the life is his own, if he is killed by the owner, it will not be worth it.

The middle-aged sergeant shook his head: "No, we received a news report. There is a connection with chaotic elements. They must be caught."

"The people inside will listen to me. Now the police are catching repeat offenders and immediately open the door for inspection, otherwise we will break in!"

The two people in the room looked at each other, and saw the young man took out a gong and drum from under the table, and shouted loudly while knocking: "The robber pretended to be a policeman and robbed him. Come out and help!"

Under normal circumstances, in the face of heavily armed "robbers", ordinary people naturally avoid it, but this is an abnormal area.

On the surface, the workers' colony is actually the secret stronghold of the Socialist Party. In addition to the young men responsible for the connection, there are also the main force of the uprising.

The sound of gongs and drums is the agreed signal, regardless of whether the robbers are real or fake. In short, the surrounding "residents" all responded.

The sound of gongs and drums obviously angered the police outside. Sheriff James Wren, who had not yet realized the danger, immediately ordered: "Bump the door, if someone resists, kill me on the spot!"

The most worthless thing in troubled times is human life. In the peaceful age, you can say nothing you dare to do. At this time, you will become stress-free.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

As the police slammed the door, gunshots began to sound continuously. In the dark, the gas lamp in the hands of the police became the best reference point for the direction of the gun fingers.

Seeing people being shot and falling down constantly, Sheriff James Wren, who realized that something was wrong, hurriedly shouted: "Quickly turn off the lights and fall down!"

Obviously, it was too late to react at this time. The horn of the uprising was sounded in advance, and it has become a luxury to stop. The dozen or so policemen who strayed into the whirlpool of the uprising became the first sacrifices.

Chaos is contagious, especially under the cover of darkness. No one knows the size of the rebel army, which intensifies the panic.

Like the previous Paris uprisings, in addition to those who were dissatisfied with the government voluntarily joined the rebels, more people joined the rebels in a daze.

It's messed up, the whole Paris is messed up. There are shouts of killing everywhere, except for children, everyone in the big family is fully armed.

If you look closely, you will find that new weapons that even the Maxim machine guns and mortars were not equipped with by the French army have appeared in the homes of some great nobles.

I can only sigh that the great aristocracy has a strong network of relations. The European War has just ended, and they have obtained equipment from the original enemy.

If it is not for the influence, it is estimated that armored vehicles can be obtained by these people. After all, as soon as the anti-French war ended, the Vienna government started a big sale of equipment. It's just that the object of the transaction is the country, not the individual.

In the presidential palace, Baptiste is like an ant on a hot pot, rushing round and round.

Since taking office, he has also managed everything, and it can be said that he has done his best for France. However, the situation continued to deteriorate, and finally reached the present stage.

Prime Minister Michael, who arrived in a hurry, said directly without any hesitation: "Your Excellency, the military refuses to send troops to suppress the rebellion. The current crisis may not be solved by the police alone.

The only way to pass the current hurdle is to ask the Russian army outside the city to take action. "

This is a difficult decision. When the Anti-French Allied forces ruled France, the Allied forces would naturally have no problem suppressing the rebellion.

Now that the political power has been transferred to the hands of the revolutionary government in Paris, and then let the Russians take action, that is to ask "foreign soldiers to suppress the domestic rebellion." This is completely different in nature.

Once done, the Paris revolutionary government, which was already infamous, would become even more stinking. It is estimated that the "traitor" hat will never be taken off.

"Well, I will call the Russian army abroad immediately!"

At the crucial moment, President Baptiste still showed decisiveness. Regardless of how serious the sequelae are, you have to pass the current stage.

If the rebels become the climate, the outcome of others is unknown, anyway, he, the president of the revolutionary government, is dead.

...

Chaos broke out in the city of Paris, which naturally couldn't hide the Russian army outside the city. In order to control the situation in time, the Russian army command is still brightly lit at this moment.

Many Russian generals, including General Yevgeny, are watching the development of the situation and are preparing to choose a suitable entry point to intervene.

"Your Excellency Commander, a telegram from the Allied Headquarters!"

After receiving the telegram and reading it carefully twice, Admiral Yevgeny said helplessly: "Well, now everyone can rest. No matter how chaotic the situation in Paris tonight, it has nothing to do with us."

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, General Yevgeny could not believe that the Allied Headquarters would have issued an order not to interfere.

However, military orders are military orders. Now that the Allied Headquarters has issued the order, regardless of the unreasonable control, they all have to comply with it.

Rebellious?

Admiral Yevgeny hasn't lived enough yet and doesn't want to jump out to challenge the authority of the Allied Command. At least until he has the support of the Tsarist government, he does not intend to try the law by himself.

Without much explanation, Yevgeny directly passed the telegram in his hand to everyone to read. Whether you understand or don't understand, you have to implement it anyway.

"Your Excellency Commander, the French President calls."

Admiral Yevgeny frowned, and said angrily: "Tell President Baptiste that I have fallen asleep. Now that no one's calls are answered, I will talk about something tomorrow."

Needless to say, Yevgeny also knew that the Frenchman's call was for help.

It is estimated that the situation in Paris at this moment has collapsed to the limit, and the revolutionary government of Paris must rely on external forces to stabilize the situation. Originally this was a good opportunity to hold back, but now it has nothing to do with him.
