Escorted by the world's most powerful warship, Joseph arrived in Carroll Harbour, Ireland, where he was greeted with great pomp by the top brass of the United Irish Coalition, including Russell.

Before the warship entered the harbor, the Irish fired a gun salute 24 times in welcome, although Joseph was not the head of state of any country, of course, in theory, Joseph was the Caesar of the Roman Empire. But Caesar was the vice-emperor and could not be considered the head of state.

Russell personally greeted Joseph on the docks, and as Joseph stepped onto the gangplank, the military band immediately played the "Slave War Song". Joseph frowned slightly, this song, now he sounded, already felt a little uncomfortable. However, he immediately regained his smile, raised his right hand, and waved to the cheering crowd below.

Stepping off the springboard, Joseph's hand and Russell's hand clasped tightly. He was so excited that he grabbed Joseph's right hand tightly with both hands and shook it vigorously. Considering that over the years, Russell had often trained with the soldiers and worked with the peasants. And Joseph, well, has been pampered. Therefore, Russell had only just exerted a little force, and Joseph was already crooked in pain.

"Pull ...... Accept...... Russell ...... Homosexuals...... Tap ...... Tap ...... It hurts......" Joseph groaned with his mouth crooked.

Russell noticed that he seemed to be a little too enthusiastic, so he hurriedly let go of his hand and said embarrassedly: "Dean Bonaparte, I'm really sorry, I hurt you." ”

Joseph moved his right hand slightly, it was already like this, what else could he do? Of course, I can only forgive him.

The two men walked along the red carpet, and the crowds on both sides cheered at them.

The two of them went up to a podium together. Russell, as the host, spoke first. He first recalled the suffering of the Irish people under British colonial rule, and then highly praised: "'The French Revolution sent us revolutionary ideas and showed us the direction in which Ireland was heading', as the saying goes, 'The sun shines in all directions, and the ideas of the Great Revolution shine golden; The sun shines on people, and the light of the great revolutionary ideology shines brightly on our hearts.'" Since then, the Irish people have had a proposition and a direction in their hearts. The victory of the Irish Revolution is inseparable from the guidance of the French Revolution.

And Dean Bonaparte was not only a scientist, a general, but also a revolutionary soldier and a revolutionary thinker. His many contributions to the Irish Revolution, his ideas, more than once saved the United States and the Irish Revolution in the most dangerous of times.

Dean Bonaparte not only guided us in thought, but also supported us in action. Our victory is inseparable from the victory of revolutionary France. Without the wild boar expellators sent to us by our French comrades, we could not best protect our crops from the spoiled boars of England; Without the fleet of our French comrades, we could not break the blockade of the British; Without the cannon barrels of the French comrades, we would not be able to gain independence and freedom now.

But our enemies have not yet been completely defeated, and although they have been forced to retreat to their dens for the time being, they are still thinking of coming back, squeezing us again, and enslaving us, so we must stand firmly with our friends and destroy this harmful jackal once and for all......"

Russell's speech was followed by a shorter speech. First of all, he highly praised the courage and tenacity of the Irish people, and praised the Irish people for their hard work and bravery, and like the French people, they are the greatest people in the world. He said that if it were not for the great spirit of the Irish people, no amount of support and help would have solved the problem. "Eggs are able to hatch chicks because eggs have that potential. Replacing it with a pebble, even if the hen is exhausted to death, will not help. The struggle of the Irish people themselves is the first reason for independence and freedom. ”

Then he emphasized that the world is one, that the liberation of everyone is the liberation of more people, that France cannot be an island of freedom and democracy, that France needs friends, and that it needs friends who are truly like-minded. Ireland is such a friend, and the people of Ireland and the people of France should always be friendly friends for generations to come.

Finally, Joseph took Russell's hand, raised the two hands together, and shouted: "Long live Ireland, long live the unity of the people of France and Ireland!" ”

After his speech, Joseph stayed at the "Independent Hotel" in Port Carroll. Early the next morning, he also attended the preparatory meeting for the founding of the United Irish Union.

Since everyone decided to set the capital in Dublin, the founding ceremony or something should naturally be held here. But Joseph was very opposed to this.

"Comrade Russell, you must know that in the Irish Sea, we have no sea dominance, and the British mines have blocked the entrance to this sea area, and our warships cannot pass, but the warships of the British soldiers can indeed come. If in the middle of our founding ceremony, British warships suddenly appeared and launched an artillery bombardment of the city. What are we going to do?

The founding ceremony is a grand ceremony, and there will definitely be a lot of people and friends to attend. If there is shelling on this occasion, it is likely that the crowd will suffer huge casualties. So, I think the capital of Ireland can follow the tradition of Dublin, but the founding ceremony should be placed in a safer place. Also, including the central government agencies, in a short period of time, I mean, don't be based in Dublin before we have the capacity to ensure the security of Dublin. We have been waiting for many years to build an independent state, and this patience should be needed. And it doesn't take too long. After the defense of Dublin, especially the defense of the sea, has been consolidated, the central government of Ireland can go to Dublin. ”

Joseph's suggestion was well received. So in the end, the location of the founding ceremony was set in the port of Carroll. This is the base of the Irish independence movement, and the masses here are very supportive of the revolution, and the masses are well organized, so it is very difficult for British Assassin agents or anything to get involved. On the sea, there was the French fleet, and on land, there were also artillery batteries built with French assistance. If the British Navy didn't come here, it would be like Tom fighting Spike, definitely looking for abuse.

In addition to coming to the ceremony of Ireland's founding ceremony. Joseph also had a mission, which was to negotiate with the Irish about the rebuilding of Ireland.
