God's Domain 019 French Civil War
About 1 month later...
The region of Alsace and Lorraine in France, which had long been part of the Holy Roman Empire, was ruled by the Habsburgs during the Holy Roman Empire, and because the power of the Habsburgs was very weak, the nominally unified empire was actually fragmented. At this time, there were various regional powers in Germany, such as Prussia, Austria, Bavaria, etc., all of which were hegemonic princes, and the Habsburgs could not unify these forces. As an important area within the empire, Alsace Lorraine was between France and Germany, and unlike the fragmented Germany, France was a strong centralized state at this time, so the powerful France set its sights on the Alsace Lorraine region.
After the Thirty Years' War, France completely defeated Germany, and the two sides signed the Treaty of Westphalia to officially annex Alsace Lorraine to France, at this time France was the real aggressor, and if there was a German writer who recorded this event, it was the German teacher who was forced to stop teaching, not the French teacher.
Germany, having lost its territory, naturally cherished its homeland, but it did not dare to open its mouth to France due to its limited strength. By the time Bismarck was in power, the situation was reversed, Prussia was thriving, and there was a great tendency to unify all of Germany by force, and France, which had always prided itself as the first in Europe, could not turn a blind eye to this, so it sent troops to intervene, but the result was...
In 1870, the Franco-Prussian War broke out, the battle of Sedan, 100,000 French troops and Napoleon III, the nephew of the god of war Napoleon, were served by the Prussian army, the Prussian army marched all the way into Paris unhindered, France was defeated, on January 18, 1871, King Wilhelm I of Prussia was crowned emperor of the German Empire in the Palace of Versailles in Paris he occupied, and the German Empire was proclaimed.
At the beginning of the 20th century, World War I broke out, the hostile France and Germany belonged to the two camps of the Entente and the Central Powers, Germany was defeated in World War I, France took the opportunity to take Alsace and Lorraine as its own, and more seriously, the extremely strict "Treaty of Versailles" signed after the war has always been a salt in the wounds of the Germans. Sure enough, twenty years later, World War II broke out, and the German army was overwhelmed, quickly crushing the Anglo-French forces, France once again raised the white flag and surrendered, and the Germans once again occupied the Alsace Lorraine region. After the end of World War II, Germany was defeated again, and Alsace and Lorraine, which had been previously occupied, were retaken by France, and this geopolitical pattern continues to this day.
In order to revitalize Europe's increasingly weak military and economy, in the face of capitalism in country M, the Soviet race. Under various pressures such as the doctrine and the increasing military demands of the newly established Chinese Great Shang Empire, these two pairs of old enemies really chose a relatively peaceful means of negotiation, which is also the most puzzling record for historians.
In order to reach this merger plan with the German United ZF (abolishing NATO and establishing an independent ruling bloc completely free from outside control), the French coalition ZF rightists ignored the current acute social contradictions in their country. Led by Savage and members of the newly formed far-right New Progressives, three of the five ministers in the French cabinet expressed support for the separatist move in exchange for a stronger and unprecedented Europe to replace the previously scattered NATO. Solace convened a cabinet meeting and sternly warned the cabinet faction to abandon the plan, these moves did not take him as a president, and Prime Minister Savage felt that the pro-left president already showed signs of tearing his face with him, in order to prevent the plan from being aborted, so a conspiracy against all the opposition in the country surfaced...
November 4th. Paris
A few hours ago, an undercover phone call from the Intelligence Agency went directly to the president's home, and President Solace had just answered when he heard the intelligence officer's panicked account:
"Your Excellency, the Cabinet of Ministers, bypassing the Parliament and yourself, has signed the terms of the United Nations Territorial Reunification Plan with the German and Italian Coalition ZF, and our two places... Involved. ”
"Click!" The president buttoned the phone, looked at the desktop with a grim face, then picked it up again and dialed the phone again...
"Inform the Ministry of National Defense, cancel the press conference scheduled for 3 p.m. today, impose martial law nationwide, and anyone who tries to contact foreign forces should now be imprisoned according to the Constitution of the Republic, and ask the Cabinet to organize an emergency meeting to ask the Prime Minister what he means and ask them to give me an explanation!"
The president hurriedly got dressed, stood in front of the window, took out a satellite phone, dialed the other two neutral ministers of the cabinet, and discussed with them how to stop this incident, but the two of them persuaded him in unison that he should first convene the national officials and urgently convene a popular meeting at the Champs-Elysées, and at this moment it is necessary to appease the people, and the most important thing is not to stimulate the anti-foreign sentiment of the domestic people, and the country must not lose foreign aid! The president nodded, cleared his thoughts, hung up the phone, and walked out the door.
"Driver, go to the Champs-Elysée Chamber!"
"The president is starting to interfere with our plans!" Prime Minister Savage looked at the few people in front of him with a grim face, and one of the cabinet ministers stepped forward and whispered: "This matter must not be delayed any longer, if it is too late, it will change, take this opportunity to sweep away the organizations that support the leftist forces in one fell swoop, in my opinion, let's take the Liberal Party!"
"Do it! Spread it on and catch all the trouble! ”
The president was sitting in the car talking on the phone, the car was moving on the plane tree street that had begun to gradually turn yellow, several electric cars stopped in front of the intersection they were about to drive, just blocking the president's car, the driver honked the horn, saw that the group of people did not plan to leave, so he held the pistol hidden in his waist with one hand, pulled the car door and walked down to talk to them...
"Hey, what are you doing here? Why stop at a junction? ”
"Click!" Suddenly, these people showed out the submachine guns that had been prepared long ago from their arms, and shot at the driver, shooting it into minced meat, the president saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly opened the car door and wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, several gunmen rushed out next to him, and fired at the glass of the car, and the dense barrage fell on the bulletproof car like a torrential rain, the president hurriedly closed and locked the door, took out a satellite phone and dialed the phone of the defense secretary to ask for help, at this time a white shadow flashed, and the assassin of the Combine appeared above the car, It smashed the battered window glass with one foot, reached in and grabbed the president by the neck with one hand, dragging him out of the car like a chicken...
"Mr. President? Are you okay? The Minister of Defense stuck in front of the phone, listening to the fierce fighting and gunfire on the other end, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, the phone was suddenly cut off, and there were fierce gunshots on the streets of the city, the Minister of Defense felt very bad, got up and went out to rush to the Ministry of Defense to sit down, but at this time the door of his room was opened, and the two masked men fired a few shots at him without saying a word, and the Minister of Defense lay in a pool of blood, watching the two guys come to him, and his mouth fluttered and squeezed out a few words:
"You two... It's someone sent by the Empire! ”
The territory of Paris has become a pot of porridge at the moment, the president was killed, and two more cabinet ministers have had accidents one after another, one was hit and killed in the street, the perpetrator fled and did not know his whereabouts, and one was turned out by the opposition to turn out old bad debts, and was placed under house arrest by the National Guard on charges of love/child/fetish, and the voice of the people questioning the right is getting higher and higher, and the left sees the opportunity to beat the water dogs, so the leader of the left appears...
"People!" A middle-aged man stood in front of the rebuilt Paris Commune, looked at the crowd and shouted loudly over a loudspeaker: "These days, a series of horrific evil deeds have taken place on our soil, our dear president has been assassinated and he has left us forever... And now the faction in power is still not forgetting their plan to merge the European continent, ignoring the peace, allowing these chaos to flourish and leaving people in dire straits, and I clearly hear their bad words against our people, who say that we are a bunch of fools who can only farm the land and do nothing but farm it? I can't imagine that there are still people who look at us civilians like this now, since I was elected leader of the Liberal Party two years ago, I swore that I would never let any aristocratic forces oppress us again, we are the people who make up France, and the aristocracy and politicians account for less than one-third of the population of France, why? Why do we continue to endure being oppressed to such an extent? ”
"But some say that the left caused this incident! The assassins of the president and the cabinet magistrates are all people on the left, how do you explain it! Some people below couldn't help but question him, he sneered, and immediately responded:
"It's ridiculous, why is there such a question, this kind of thing can only be said by people who are extremely unconfident, some people are high up and turn a deaf ear to the voices of the bottom, but whenever the domestic situation is slightly unstable, they throw away the responsibility and run away themselves, look at the Congress, how many officials are still sitting in their positions? And how many have fled to seek refuge overseas? Is this what an official of a country should do? Who is now in charge of the life and death of the whole country? ”
"Rightist !!"
"Who is it who thinks all day long about the land that my French ancestors have so hard won in their hands, those fertile lands, for the sake of a ridiculous joint plan, there is not even a plan to be voted on with our people, and they are sent out?"
"Rightist !!"
"So who is it that now sees that things are exposed, thinks of killing people and exterminating them, and inflicts the death of the president and the resentment of the people on people who have nothing to do with it? Distorting the facts, reversing black and white, who caused today's chaos in France, and the eyes of the people were deceived by their words! ”
"It's the right! They can't see a good life for our people! Equality for all has long been a joke in their hearts! It's a good thing they did! Let the Prime Minister step down! Someone suddenly shouted in the crowd, which caused a lot of resonance, and soon, the people found an outlet for contradictions, chanted slogans, and went violently to surround the Champs-Elyss cabinet and prevent them from entering the Champs-Elysées for a meeting, seeing that the goal had been achieved, this person wiped the sweat on his head, walked down the stage and stood beside the two party members, and whispered: "You have done a good job, there is no evidence that no people will be willing to believe this, only the people themselves are willing to listen to the back will believe these words, but the matter is not over yet, Please also contact our allies as soon as possible, I am afraid that the cabinet will not rest on its laurels this time. ”
"But the cause of death of the president and the cabinet is now unknown, so is it too radical for us to do so?" One of the people next to him looked worried
"Sir, word has come from the Resolution Council that we are going to hold an emergency meeting at the city hall, and that the representatives of all regions are going to go."
"The storm is coming!"
With the death of the president, the long-brewing storm in the political arena was ignited by various leftist forces, and the rightists were busy wiping their butts from the attack, but they still did not forget to secretly mobilize manpower to collect evidence of the leftists' involvement, and wanted to turn the tables on the spot, but no one has come forward to take responsibility for the president's death, which makes the already turbid situation even more confusing. As a result, the struggle between the two forces intensified, gradually shifting from political attacks to local armed conflicts, and the contradictions with the people intensified.
November 20th
In Orleans, a large automobile factory covering an area of about 6 hectares, the workers here staged a huge strike, more than 10,000 angry workers stood at their respective stations, there was no sound of machines, there was no roar of car engines, countless people waited quietly...
Their leaders argued with them in the factory director's office, and the factory and his immediate boss deducted their wages for a whole month, on the grounds that someone had participated in a street demonstration, which caused the whole factory to not keep up with the production capacity and planned volume and was punished by the ZF department, and the factory director decided to punish these workers, but the unwitting workers found that the information of the daily bullet recording of working hours had recently disappeared, and everyone's work items and working hours could not be uploaded in time, when they realized that something was wrong. The director of the factory had already dismissed all the workers who had participated in the demonstration, and the rest of them received such a warning and punishment, which immediately caused an uproar, so that the strike became the only thing that these ordinary people could do now.
The workers waited anxiously for the result, and finally, two hours later, their collective representative appeared from within, and the sixty-seven-year-old master looked at everyone with a gloomy face, and after a long time, he spoke:
"These capitalists treat us workers as machines! They have no sympathy, and we work hard to get paid for all of our hard work to feed these unfed wolf cubs, and they... But with just one sentence, all our wages can be deducted, and we will be left to fend for ourselves! They... They didn't even care if we lived or died! ”
"Lost... Failed? Everyone was stunned, the small door of the factory gate was opened, and a team of bodyguards escorted the factory director and general manager appeared in front of them, and the factory director said to them with a smile: "Okay, still strike?" Looks like I'm giving you faces! ”
"How can you do this!" Many of the workers were bold and strong, and they stepped forward without fear and pointed at this guy and scolded angrily, but the bodyguard on the side suddenly took out a baton, slapped his round arm and slapped him on the head, beating people to death on the spot, and everyone immediately exploded, the general manager on the side sneered and waved his hand, and the National Guard disguised as a bodyguard suddenly rushed out with a baton in his hand, "You eat things that crawl outside, I give you the opportunity to think about your mistakes and correct them, not only do you cherish it, but you dare to collude with leftist forces, Want to ruin this place? Okay, I'm sorry for you to take them all away! No one is allowed to engage in this kind of red movement in my factory! ”
"What are you waiting for!" People were forced to fight back, and there seemed to be people in the crowd shouting, "What are you waiting for!" ”
"Bang!" A crisp gunshot rang out from inside the factory, the small door of the factory was pushed open, and an embarrassed figure came out of it, stumbling towards the middle of the wide road, and then, the gate of the factory was opened, and the workers were armed with wrenches and crowbars, and with the assistance of several leftist armed men, they beat up a few National Guards, who were covered in blood and completely down, and one of them saw the guy who ran away, and shouted at that time: "Hey! Don't let this bullshit manager run away! ”
"Help!" The general manager twisted his bloated body, ran two steps and hurriedly threw off the leather shoes that were in the way, and then ran towards the factory gate even more desperately, where the National Guard, who had been waiting for them to come out early, was shocked when they saw this scene, and then saw the thousands of workers rushing out behind him, red eyes were rushing towards this side, they were frightened all over their bodies, and stumbled and hurriedly turned around and climbed up the APC armored car, the general manager was at this time with bolts and wrenches as thick as fingers flying all over the sky, Crying all the way, he ran over and grabbed one of the guys, who angrily tried to break free from him, but a bolt smashed over, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared in the skull, and he fell to the ground on the spot...
"It's the other way around! It's the other way around, it's the other way around! It's all the other way around! The leader of the far-right New Progressive Party stood in front of a messy table, looked at the news that had just come in, pointed to a few people around him and said to them angrily: "A group of people who are stepping on horses! Dare to kill my cousin! The notice was issued, and the whole party entered a state of emergency, and the armed forces of the various divisions immediately swept away all shops and factories in Paris that had contacts and contacts with the leftists... Go and inform the military attache of the Civil Guard in France, and say... The Orleans Lahr Automobile Plant urgently needs the intervention of the National Guard, someone wants to rebel! ”
"Freedom! Fair! Fair! "Tens of thousands of French civilians with banners and slogans gathered in a huge demonstration in the center of Paris, they protested against yesterday's crackdown in Orleans, which has caused hundreds of casualties, and some radical people even agitated the surrounding people to try to storm the Bourbon Palace and the Legislative Yuan, ordinary armed police can no longer rely on blast shields and pistols to stop these menacing crowds, and soon, the French cabinet approved the blockade order of the National Guard and the armored core force, and quickly blocked the main streets of the city to disperse the crowd, This move has undoubtedly exacerbated the contradictions between the French people and the French right.
November 29th
A group of leftist armed men with spears on their backs and green camouflage uniforms took advantage of the hazy twilight of the early morning to push two Schneider 1897 infantry guns obtained from the museum, and crossed the Seine to the very center of the Avenue de Gaulle. People looked at the triumphal arch at night, and at this time countless leftist rebels wearing blue vests walked out of the alley behind them, they quietly watched all this happening quietly in front of them, thinking about the ancient French Revolution, the extremely grim form at home and abroad, at this moment, a sense of honor and disgrace from the depths of history filled my heart again, and I had no good impression of this traitor ZF who obeyed his words in front of the United Empire, and the rotten ones will eventually be annihilated by history, the glory of human civilization, Eventually, the darkness will be dispelled again!
"Target Arc de Triomphe! Grenade ready! ”
Under the command of the gun commander, the rebels loaded two high-explosive shells into the breech, and then pulled the cannon rope, with two crisp cannon sounds, two red lights drew two clear orange-red scratches in the night, and hit the Arc de Triomphe with thunder, followed by two huge explosions over the Arc de Triomphe, and the terrifying fire tore a corner of the Arc de Triomphe to pieces, The huge horse relief wrapped in countless fragments of rubble fell from a height of tens of meters, and then the rebel army from the street quickly passed through this gate, roaring and rushing to the site of the French parliament Bourbon Palace, the people's uprising, officially began...
...
In the early morning of December 1, the recruits who were still training in the Greater Antilles suddenly received an order to assemble and were dragged from the barracks to the playground by the non-commissioned officers
"The French left sent a message that due to the intensification of the contradictions between the right and the left in France, the domestic forces have also begun to turn from the underground to the big war on the surface, and now the war clouds are thick in Europe, and the bloody repression in Orleans has pulled peace to the abyss, and there is no longer any hope for peace..."
"So, in the past 2 months of intensive training, I think you have all learned a lot of combat basics, right? Then, without further ado, the General Headquarters ordered the boarding and departure of the ship to begin tonight, you have 25 minutes to pack your luggage and equipment, and the remaining five minutes must all be back on this sand and wait for the convoy! ”
"Oh my God...", everyone suddenly messed up, completely lost the composure and patience of the previous training, and returned to the barracks and began to pack their belongings in a panic, preparing to board a big ship from heaven to hell, Pan Yilong looked back at these guys, the pendant on his chest seemed to be faintly hot, the key to open the stone box was one of his few personal belongings, worried that he would lose it, so he hung it directly around his neck, and then he was left with the photo necklace belonging to his mother that he had been carrying on his body, He followed the crowd and began to pack their luggage, and in less than 20 minutes, everything was ready, he sat at the head of the bed, and looked thoughtfully at the palm of his hand, the newly appointed battalion commander was named Nock. Bolton, who was helping a few recruits tie the futon belt, saw him sitting there and lost his soul, he couldn't help but walk up and pat him, and asked:
"You're always the first to get everything done for yourself, what do you make other people think? You are also a squad leader now, you have to learn to lead by example, get yourself right, don't be idle here in a daze, help those rusty little cubs in your platoon pack their luggage, and they are about to leave..."
"Who are we going to fight?" Pan Yilong suddenly asked, Nock was asked by him, did not answer him, he also sighed, and said leisurely: "Whether it is the leftist or the right, in essence, they are still working for the benefit of the United Empire, what kind of existence is the United Empire?" We've never seen any representatives other than agents, who are clearly not in front of us, and yet now the fear of them has become so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, everywhere, nowhere to hide... I've never wondered, are we going to help the left, or are we going to help the right? One represents ZF, the other represents the people, the funny thing is that they are all loyal to the United ZF, none of them can represent humanity itself, they dare not represent humanity itself, I have always regretted participating in the expeditionary force, dying in a foreign land, no one collects the bones, and no one praises our merits or even may not even know that we exist, whether we win or lose, it has nothing to do with us, what a chilling thing it must be..."
"Jason... I ask you, what is your reason for coming here to join the army? Nock couldn't help but glance at him, "The first time I saw you, I thought you were a capable, planned in your heart, and by no means the kind of stupid person who ran into the recruiting office to sign up on impulse, I can see that people like you I feel that I can fight in a better place, you are not like those of us who are forced by life, you don't have a big vision, you don't have a choice, you can't even understand the meaning of your own life, we have been tamed by the United Empire, Those guys who are unwilling to be controlled by others have their own place in this world and are still alive and well, I can't see you clearly, obviously you have a better choice than us..."
"It's not what I'm good at working hard..."Pan Yilong laughed heartily, "Whether it's a politician or a careerist, under the premise that ZF is taken over by the empire, everything we do is not to benefit mankind, but to do everything possible to create benefits for the United Empire, I feel very uncomfortable when I think of this, why do I have to support everything I have earned through my labor, but in the end I have to support something that you have never seen as a human being?" I'm not a tolerant person, I don't have to do things I don't like for my own future, I am subject to people sometimes I will live a very nourishing life, some people raise someone to provide, but this will also be like a boiled frog in warm water to gradually smooth out your edges and corners, lose the original original intention, and then people's seven emotions and six desires will all become a string of dispensable codes, so alive, and dead. ”
"You hate... The world now? Nock asked tentatively, at this time there was a gathering whistle outside, and the soldiers in the barracks hurriedly rushed out, leaving only the two of them, and Nock didn't expect him to answer his question head-on, so he urged him to leave quickly, but when he walked to the door, Jason said coldly behind his back:
"I guess it's hate, right? I hate it to the bone..."
