The National Assembly soon sent a man named Camacho to take over as commander of the Northern Army. Camacho was a regular in the salon of the Rolands, in other words, a Brisso. It is said that he fought in the Seven Years' War and served as a platoon commander during the war. Later, after the Revolution, he also held a number of positions in the War Office, and most recently commanded the army to suppress a church rebellion in the Brittany region.

With such an experience, he was not suitable for the position of commander of the Northern Army, and Carno even thought that it would be better to let Napoleon or Joseph directly be the commander than to let Camacho be the commander. But the Brissoites were very opposed to this. For they felt that the Jacobins of the Bonaparte brothers were too strong, and that it would not be a good thing for the Brissotes to make one of them the commander of the Northern Army. And there are three main reasons for this: first, the Bonaparte brothers are too young; Second, they are too close to Kano. If they had held such an important position, Carnot might have the opportunity to become a dictator in the future, and it was for this reason that Canot proposed Napoleon Bonaparte to take this position, and perhaps a series of previous failures...... In short, everything is a conspiracy of Kano; Thirdly, the Bonaparte brothers let Di Mourière go, and there were doubts about the loyalty of the revolution.

Danton, on the other hand, also supported the Brissotes. This is strange, because the Brissotes had been to Belgium in person when they were attacking Danton, but they found no sign of mutiny, which must have been because he had taken money from him. But Dandong actually supported them. Some people think that Danton wants to compromise with the Brissot, while others think that Danton saw that the situation in the north was critical and that the next defeat was inevitable, so he agreed to let a Brissotite be the commander.

Anyway, this guy named Camacho became the commander of the Northern Army. This appointment made Cano very dissatisfied, because he felt that the arguments against the Bonaparte brothers as commanders of the Northern Army were nonsense.

First of all, the Bonaparte brothers were indeed young, but they did not command the battle by long beards. When Alexander the Great marched towards Persia with his army, was it a little bigger? It's even smaller than Napoleon today. As for saying that the Bonaparte brothers let Di Mourière go, it was entirely for the sake of the overall situation, because if the Northern Army had lost those middle and low-ranking officers, it would have collapsed. It can be said that it was Napoleon, with decisive action, who saved the entire Northern Army!

As for saying that he will become a dictator because of this? This is simply an insult to one's own personality. The irascible Kano threw his gloves directly in the face of the guy who called him Gorio, and told him that the pistol, the stabbing sword, and the dagger were as good as he chose, and if he was still a man, then solve the problem in a man's way.

However, that guy Gorio actually shrank like this, and he actually apologized shamelessly like Kano, saying that he didn't mean that or anything. That's really ...... What's even worse is that after apologizing, he turned his back, and when people laughed at him for being timid, he actually said: "Kano is an officer, and all the skills of dueling are professional to him." He proposes a duel, and it is unfair to use any weapon, even murder......"

Kano was almost mad at this guy: "I'll go and propose it tomorrow, I'll tie one hand and duel him!" ”

"Mr. Kano, I don't think you should go to a duel with this kind of thing. A duel is a glorious affair, at least in the eyes of us Corsicans. When you go to him and ask him for a duel, you are giving him glory. But is such a thing worthy of the glory of a duel? In my opinion, he doesn't deserve it at all! He only deserves to be whipped with a whip, just like an owner whips a lazy stupid donkey! As soon as he heard Kano's words, Lucien, who had always feared that the world would not be chaotic, immediately dropped the math problem he was calculating and ran out of the study.

"Tomorrow morning, Mr. Carno, take me with you, and we'll stop the donkey at the entrance of the Capitol, and I'll stop the others with two pistols, and then Mr. Carno you can beat it up so badly, and whip it hard!"

Cano listened to Lucien's more and more speechlessness, so he glared and said, "Lucien, what nonsense are you talking about?" Are you done with your homework? Show me? ”

"Not yet, there's only a little left, and I'll be fine soon, I'll do my homework." Lucien immediately smeared oil on his feet and slipped into the study.

Lucien went into the study, and did his homework honestly, or at least as if he seemed to be honest. But after Cano himself sat down, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Lucien said seemed to be very reasonable and feasible. So he could no longer sit still, got up, took his coat and hat, and set out to go out.

"Lazar, it's about to be eaten, where are you going?" The wife hurriedly asked.

"I'm in a hurry, don't wait for me." Kano said as he went out.

Early the next morning, Cano brought two friends, Congressman Esba, and Congressman Delon.

The three of them stopped Gorio at the entrance of the Congress, and without saying a word, Kano stepped forward and threw a punch on Gorio's nose, which hit Gorio's nose with blood gushing out, and his nose was crooked in half, but it was like opening an oil sauce shop, and the salty, sour, and spicy hair rolled out.

Gorio shouted, took a few crooked steps back, covered his nose with one hand, pointed at Kano with the other, and said in vague language, "Kano...... You...... You're so ...... Can it be so barbaric...... Something to say...... Good ......."

Kano didn't say much, and rushed forward again, splitting his face and punching again, but it was hitting the eye socket, hitting Gorio's eyes cracked, and green beads burst out, as if a colorful silk shop had been opened, and red, green, and purple were about to bloom.

Gorio couldn't stand on his feet, and when he leaned back, he sat down on the ground.

The surrounding Brissoite councillors wanted to come to the rescue, but at this moment they heard a gunshot, and saw Espar holding a smoking pistol in one hand and another pistol in the other, pointing at everyone, and Delon on one side also pulled out two pistols and stopped between the councillors and Canogorio.

"Guys, this is just a personal vendetta. I hope you don't interfere. Esbah was armed with two guns and said very politely to everyone.

Probably because Esbar's speech was very convincing, even the Brissotes were persuaded by him, and obediently stood by and watched, and from time to time made such a voice:

"Oh, Mr. Kano, if you have something to say, don't, don't ...... like this"

"Ah...... Don't...... Don't do that......"

Kano took out the prepared horsewhip from his coat, and with a whip he whipped it towards Gorio, who had fallen to the ground: "Let you spread rumors behind your back!" Let you slander people at will! Call you ......"

The whip rained down on Gorio's head and face, and Gorio was rolled on the ground with his head in his hands. At first, he angrily scolded Kano as a barbarian, and then sued Rao: "Mr. Kano, spare me, I don't dare anymore!" Don't dare anymore! ”

"Phew!" Kano pointed his whip at Gorio and said, "If you are hard to the end, Lao Tzu will not beat you; If you want to beg for mercy, Lao Tzu will still fight! ”

After scolding, he rained another whip. Smoking Gorio begged for mercy at one moment, scolded angrily, and cried again. It wasn't until Kano didn't pay attention, used a little more force, and broke the whip that he withdrew his hand, and pointed to Gorio's nose and said: "You remember, if you dare to talk nonsense behind your back in the future, I will beat you once when I see you!" You remember! ”

Gorio curled up on the ground and replied in a loud voice, "Remember, remember......"

"Humph!" Kano threw down his broken whip and turned to leave.

Seeing that Kano was gone, Esbah twirled his pistol finger twice, then put it in his pocket, bowed to the other councillors, and said, "Thank you for your cooperation." ”

Then he followed Kano with Delon, who had put away his pistol without saying a word.

"Barbarian, what a ...... It's so barbaric! The stunned Brissote parliamentarians said.

"Kano is so good! Such a slut should be beaten to death! But so said the mountain councillors.

Carnot's move made headlines in the newspapers of Paris early the next morning. Of course, the Brissotist newspapers were scolding, the centrists were scolding, and the mountain faction, especially "Friends of the People", jumped up and applauded Kano, not because Marat liked Kano in particular, but because Marat especially liked Gorio because he was a damn grain speculator! In Marat's view, one of these people should be hung on a street lamp pole.

"It's a pity that the quality of the military horsewhip used by Mr. Carno is so poor that he gently whipped the fat pig with only forty-two lashes, and then it was actually broken. We have heard that the procurement of these horsewhips was the responsibility of Mr. Petit (who was a friend of Mr. Roland). At the end of the article, "Friends of the People" also insinuated that some of the Brissotan bigwigs were making black money.

Of course, as an important member of the parliament and the government, the majority of the people of Paris felt that it was too much to settle personal grievances in such a barbaric way at the door of the parliament. Therefore, the parliament convened urgently, held urgent consultations on this matter, and after some bargaining, imposed a non-permanent and severe punishment on Kano, demoted Kano to the rank of major general, and lowered his salary by one level accordingly. As for the issue of Gaurio's medical expenses, the parliament considered it a matter that should be dealt with by the civil courts, and therefore recommended that the parties to the conflict resolve it through negotiation on their own.

After beating Gorio, although he was demoted in rank and deducted from his salary, Kano didn't care. The rank was lowered, but his job was not adjusted, and (and no one else could take his place) the position was there, and it didn't take much time to get the rank back. As for the salary for a period of time, it is very cost-effective to spend so much money and change the idea of understanding. Even when I do my job, I am much more motivated.

At the end of the day, Kano returned home. When he hung up his coat and hat, his wife and Lucien came up to meet him.

"Mr. Kano, a lot of people have sent you gifts today." Lucien shouted at Kano.

"Someone gave me a gift? It's not my birthday, what are you writing about? Kano asked.

"Lazar ......" the wife's expression was strange, "a lot of horsewhips......"
