Chapter 292: Please be smart
The second more
Instigating Ernest to establish the Paris Commune was the first step in Galian's operation, and winning over the largest armed force in Paris was Galian's second move.
He set his sights on the National Guard, an urban militia belonging to the people, born on July 13, 1789, when the Electoral Conference of Paris decided to create a 48,000-strong propertied people's self-defense army, organized into regiments, battalions, and districts. 1 This army took part in the battle for the liberation of the Bastille. Since then, major urban agglomerations have followed suit and established the National Guard. During the French Revolution, the National Guard was gradually institutionalized. Eventually, in October 1795, the National Guard was defeated by Napoleon Bonaparte and disbanded due to its participation in the Portuguese uprising.
Since then, the National Guard has also undergone many troubles and regrouping, and in 1805 the First Empire reorganized the National Guard as a militia of propertied people in the counties, with senior officers appointed by the emperor. The Restoration dynasty Charles X disbanded the National Guard in 1827. It was reconstituted after the victory of the July Revolution. In February 1848, the National Guard took part in the revolution that overthrew the July Dynasty and was later used by the Provisional Government to suppress the June uprising of the Parisian workers. In 1852 the National Guard was reorganized and no longer in its standing form.
In 1870, after Napoleon III was defeated in the Franco-Prussian War, the government was forced to recruit the National Guard to defend Paris, and decided to build 60 new battalions with a total of 90,000 men. The people of Paris formed 194 battalions in three weeks, set up workers' armies, and many revolutionaries were elected battalion commanders. The National Guard took an active part in the struggle for the defense of Paris and for the establishment of the Commune.
On March 15, 1871, the Central Committee of the National Guard, elected by the Congress, was formally established, and on the 18th, the people of Paris staged an armed uprising and seized power.
By far the National Guard, which was not under the control of Emperor Bonaparte, was by far the best target for the Marxists, and if they could gain the strength of the army, they would be more lethal to capitalism than Blanqui, who engaged in small group intrigues, and Proudhonists, who tried to exert pressure through meetings and the people.
Out of the barrel of a gun comes out of power, an eternal theorem.
"If we really want the revolution in France to succeed, the National Guard is an important force that we can strive for, and we must let our revolutionaries lurk in the National Guard and carry out propaganda to win this important force over to our side. From the storming of the Bastille to the beginning of the French Revolution to the present, the National Guard has been active on almost the entire stage of history, and if our revolution wants to succeed, it must rely on their strength. ”
The National Guard, like the British Royal Army, always plays the role of a two-five boy, and they are participants in every regime change. After the sample scheme of the new weapon came out, Garion would blow the wind to Napoleon III and let the National Guard be equipped with this new weapon as soon as possible, so as to increase the combat effectiveness of the revolutionaries.
Ernest threw out his opinion, "But I remember that the high-ranking officers of the National Guard were recommended by high-ranking officials and appointed by the emperor, and it was difficult for us to ...... from within"
"This situation would not last long, as Napoleon III was worried by external threats from Prussia, and the bourgeoisie in power had to revert to their previous methods of dealing with autocracy."
Spurred on by the Austro-Prussian War in 1866, Napoleon III made the unwise decision to loosen the control of the National Guard, which also gave Garion an opportunity.
Garian said earnestly to Ernest, "I hope that Lord Ernest will seriously consider what I have to say. Of course, the decision is still in your hands, and I am just offering advice. ”
"But your suggestion has struck me, and we will seriously consider what you say."
Ernest couldn't help but sigh and said, "So Lord Galion, if you are willing to join our team......"
"What a joke."
Garion decisively dispelled Ernest's careful thoughts, and he said bluntly, "I'm just a literati who writes a few articles, and as for the difficult work of revolution, which is the cause of liberating mankind, I still leave it to professionals, and I won't participate in it." ”
A genius who could make Bismarck use a plan to kidnap, who could bring down the Proudhonists with a telegram, who could make Napoleon III obey his words, actually said that he was just a man of letters, and no one would believe him. Ernest sees Gary's repudiation as a sign of modesty, and only shakes his head regretfully.
"You underestimate yourself too much, Lord Garion, put you in a more important position, you can achieve higher than you are now."
But Garion is true, at first he just wanted to mix up the title of French academician in Paris, fool the world with a few plagiarized articles, and it is better to have the opportunity to sleep in the Panthéon after death, and drink and have fun with Voltaire, Rousseau and other French sages. However, the forces of Paris are pushing him in the unknown direction, and he is getting farther and farther in the torrent of history.
He began to panic a little, feeling like a liar who had cheated the world, but the title of Garion was like a halo that propelled him forward.
Just as he was distraught, Ernest felt like he was about to leave. He sensed the impatience in Garion's tone, and wanted to come back in a few days to advise the other party.
"Okay, it's not too early, and I won't disturb His Excellency Garion to rest, but the plan I proposed before, Garion can think about it again, talents like you should not be wasted here, and should fight for the cause of liberating all mankind."
"I'm not modest, so you'd better be smart."
Garion pushed him out of the door, showing impatience, once it came to what he wanted him to do, the whole person suddenly changed his face, Ernest who was locked out of the door showed great regret, and at the same time jealous of Garion's talent, why a person is obviously excellent to the extreme, but always likes to leave the burden and not take the responsibility that should be borne.
Ernest was pushed out, the oak door behind him slamming shut.
"Are you just watching the suffering people of the world? Won't your conscience hurt? ”
Ernest was a little angry, he stood in the doorway and shouted, "Lord Garion, you will change your mind one day, you will come back!" God bless France! ”
Then Ernest heard a mid-air roar coming from inside the room.
"Get out."
