The economic crisis is getting worse and worse, and although people with small green cards (legal French residency) can get a certain amount of food supplies in Paris, there are more and more illegal immigrants, and the social security in Paris is still deteriorating.

Just three days ago, a group of foreign thugs attacked a bread distribution station, snatched bread that was meant to be distributed in a certain neighborhood, and also killed a staff member. As soon as the incident was reported, it caused widespread anger among the citizens of Paris against the "foreigners". Although Fouché worked very hard and it only took one day to wipe out this "criminal gang", the last thing some of the "criminals" in this criminal gang did before they were arrested was not even to resist arrest, but to quickly eat the stolen bread. The court also handed down the verdict with great efficiency, and the two main offenders were sentenced to death by hanging, and 20 accomplices were sentenced to hard labor. But the people of Paris were not satisfied with this sentence, because they felt that all the dregs of their bread should be beheaded at this time (although the guillotine had been abolished because of its political significance). As a result, on the streets of Paris, locals attacked foreigners constantly.

The newspapers controlled by the Ministry of Truth were, of course, continuing to act as the "conscience of France", calling on citizens not to "look at foreigners with tinted glasses" and to show "the tolerance and friendliness of the people of Paris". But everyone said, "I can go to your friendliness!" ”

The newspapers of the Ministry of Truth are just shouting, and there is no real action. But the Ministry of Public Security, which can really take action, is resolutely on the side of the citizens of Paris. If the Parisians hit the illegal immigrants, well, the police didn't see it; If the Parisians hurt the illegal immigrant, well, it must be the illegal immigrant himself who injured himself; (Say, are you trying to blackmail French citizens?) If the Parisians had beaten the illegal immigrants to death, ah, and such a thing, well, we would have caught the murderer in our lifetime!

But if illegal immigrants dare to fight back, it's different. If an illegal immigrant wins, he will be sentenced to hard labor for trying to rob; If a group of illegal immigrants wins the war, it is an organized criminal group, and it must be dealt with strictly and quickly. If you lose, well, if you lose, it's an attempt to commit a crime; A group of people lost, and it was the people of the Saint-Antoine district who stopped the group crime!

The Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) have made almost undisguised discrimination against illegal immigrants, and for good reason. Because it is from above.

It is said that the First Consul said this to Minister Fouche: "The life of the people is too bad, and it is impossible for them to be free from resentment in their hearts. We must let them vent their grievances, and if we don't let them vent at foreigners, can we still let them vent their dissatisfaction with us? ”

As a result, the whole economic crisis was caused by foreigners, and now these gringos are stealing us and robbing us. The French, even the "pre-French" who have residency rights, are angry at the illegal immigrants.

Under such circumstances, the ruling government began to announce the expansion of conscription in order to protect the French borders and defend the French people.

The treatment of the French team has always been very good. One of Napoleon's tenets was: "Poor cannot be poor soldiers, and poor soldiers cannot be poor." "It is true that the French team made way for economic construction when the weapons were changed or something, but since Napoleon became the first consul, the military salary of the French team has never made way for anyone. Because Napoleon knew that without the support of the army, what the Senate of the Republic would have in it was the Bruce Diagram.

So in France, being a soldier is a very lucrative business. Now, although it is not like during the war, when soldiers can directly obtain land after retiring from the army, the military salary has been further increased, and there are many other discounts. So in France, being a soldier is even a thing that needs to go through the back door.

Now that France has expanded its recruitment, it has immediately caused an upsurge of "joining the army to serve the country". Although some people say that the large-scale recruitment of troops at this time should not be unbalanced by the domestic economic crisis, and it is necessary to invade the outside world. But the French people, especially those queuing up at the army's registration office, have said they don't care.

This is probably due to the fact that in the later stages of the previous war, Napoleon's armies were always able to crush the enemy with very small losses, and each victory was followed by a very generous victory allowance. Especially some veterans, after retiring from the army, when chatting with others, they will always say: "Military salary? That's a little more, and the victory allowance is the big one. Let me tell you, as long as there is a war, as soon as the combat allowance is paid, you will not remember how much the military salary is every month; As long as you win, as soon as the victory allowance is issued, you don't remember how much the combat allowance is, hahahaha......"

And the veterans also have their own organizations, as well as the banks that they contact for them. Their deposits are basically aggregated to the Federation of Veterans and then deposited into the Bank of Rome in the form of structured deposits. Interest rates are higher than those of ordinary deposits, and they have not been affected by the turmoil. Therefore, when those skilled workers have shown their bare butts as the economic tide recedes, the lives of retired soldiers have not been greatly affected, which also makes the French full of enthusiasm for joining the army.

The French were so eager to join the army that they could scare the surrounding countries enough. The Spanish ambassador approached Talleyrand and asked sideways if there was anything wrong with Spain that upset the French. And constantly emphasize that the two countries are allies who have been friendly for generations, share the same faith, and that the traditional friendship between the two countries is higher than the Pyrenees and deeper than the Atlantic.

Of course, after charging a certain amount of consulting fees, Talleyrand also told them that France has always valued its traditional friendship with Spain and is willing to work together with Spain in order to overcome this crisis together.

The next to find Talleyrand were the Austrians. Metternich, who was about to leave for Vienna, suddenly received a notice from China: not to come back yet, but to find out the details of the recent expansion of the French army.

So Metternich invited Talleyrand to the Moulin Rouge for a night on the pretext that he was about to leave Paris and return to China to have a good time with his friends. In the midst of this, having succeeded in paying the bribe, Metternich bluntly asked who the French were targeting, and if Austria was not the target, whether Austria could join in and make a fortune.

In this regard, Talleyrand said that the friendship between France and Austria can stand the test. Austria does not need to worry unnecessarily. France's military expansion is mainly due to domestic needs, and if it needs to use troops, it will certainly not be in Europe.

While Talleyrand's words may not be entirely reliable, they are at least a consolation to Austria. Metternich went on to ask about the direction of the French. But Talleyrand refused to say anything more.

A month later, it was New Year, and in the course of a month, the French had expanded their army by 500,000 troops, and the whole of Europe trembled. And at this time, it is also time for the French government to issue the State of the Union address and announce the budget for the new year, and Europe is waiting, paying attention, trying to see something from the new State of the Union address and the budget of France.
