Chapter 78: The Grenadier

On July 17, 1789, the evening glow turned the city of Paris in red, as if to herald the end of a day of bloody street fighting in the city. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The sporadic gunfire outside the Paris City Hall never completely stopped, and when the National Guard, which had scattered and fled after the collapse, stormed the Paris City Hall with the main force of Lin Haoda, most of the people who were unwilling to accept the defeat of the revolution reorganized themselves spontaneously and stopped the rout without pursuers.

Lin Haoda's strength was overstretched at this moment, and more than half of the battle damage allowed him to use his troops in one place, and he could not disperse into the entire Paris city to seize control of the French capital!

Lin Haoda followed Zhaoyun's bodyguards to step on the stone steps of the main entrance of the Paris City Hall for the first time, even though the Paris City Hall had changed hands for more than an hour, the corpses piled up in it had not been cleaned up, and a large number of surrendered Paris armed citizens and the so-called defeated soldiers of the National Guard who were driven by the bayonets of the line infantry carried the bodies out of the Paris City Hall one by one.

The few elite members of the National Self-Defense Force who stayed behind at that time did not know how much they were wronged, and they had to fight to the last with Lin Haoda's soldiers who represented the king's army......

From the periphery of the Paris City Hall to the gate, they were driven into the inside of the Paris City Hall, relying on the corridors, living rooms, rooms and even large pieces of furniture to fight with the line infantry meter by meter!

Their combat ability is not strong, but the willpower to fight can be called steel, Lin Haoda, who is in the rear, did not see the battle scene with his own eyes, but the corpses that died together in their arms, and the amazement that Casio couldn't hide when he reported the results of the battle have proved that these elites of the National Guard who are stuck in the Paris City Hall are at home!

Especially when Casio said that there were only a few dozen people left in the Paris City Hall, but shouted 'Long live freedom' to launch a decisive counterattack against the hundreds of line infantry who attacked the town hall, and miraculously repelled a wave of line infantry attacks, Lin Haoda had to pay attention to these people who were brainwashed by revolutionary slogans.

Obviously, not everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, there will always be a group of warriors in this world who are willing to die after being brainwashed!

With a snap, Lin Haoda frowned slightly and glanced at his feet, he seemed to have stepped on the scraps of human internal organs?

Lin Haoda looked at the pile of meat pieces under his feet that were artificially chopped up and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching, this piece of meat foam was obviously a fresh organ taken out by humans, and then shredded like chopping vegetables like a vent, how much hatred would it take to do such a thankless thing?

Lin Haoda knew that this kind of thing could not be done by the soldiers under his command, even if a few soldiers were perverted, the strict discipline of Lin Haoda's unit would also restrain them from doing this kind of meaningless venting, if other soldiers and even officers saw a certain line of infantry squatting there and abusing corpses, they would definitely give a similar punishment!

For a period of time in the future, this soldier will have no room for promotion, not to mention, he will stand at the forefront in battle......

The probability of your own soldiers committing such perverted behavior is extremely low, and it can only be done by the group of 'madmen' who were guarding the Bastille at that time......

Sure enough, those who are ruthless enough to themselves will undoubtedly be even more ruthless to the enemy!

Lin Haoda took Zhaoyun's bodyguards all the way through the prisoners of war who carried the corpses back and forth, and finally came to the main conference hall where the Standing Committee of the Paris City Hall usually meets in the salute of the guards at the control site......

From the beginning of the attack on the Paris City Hall to the present, Lin Haoda has spent a whole day, and although the resistance of the National Guard and the armed citizens has not stopped, the large-scale fighting has disappeared.

Whether it was the National Guard besieging the Bastille or the revolutionary army attacking the rearguard position of Lin Haoda's unit, after raising the golden fleur-de-lis flag at the Paris City Hall, they all stopped their large-scale offensive and retreated to their own barricade defenses.

The National Guard, which besieged Lin Haoda's main force, was okay, because it fought very 'safely' and suffered few casualties, more than a dozen unlucky people were killed by Lin Haoda's light infantry......

The siege of the Bastille, with its ill-conceived illusions, weakened the National Guard, and the fall of the Hôtel de Paris was only a legitimate reason to retreat......

Without artillery, trying to storm the fortress-style Bastille is not something that an armed mob can do.

Lin Haoda's unit, which had been cut off from the Bastille before, also reopened the main road connecting the two recently, and the National Guard Corps in Paris, which had just experienced a major defeat, was in chaos, and it would not be reorganized until tomorrow at the earliest.

[Ding~ Congratulations to the commander for completing the capture of the Paris City Hall, although your record has little impact on the overall situation in France, but the victory in this battle has made your name 'popular' throughout the city of Paris, and the members of the Standing Committee who were unexpectedly defeated by you are frantically inquiring about you, and the revolutionary government, which has a real understanding of the combat effectiveness of the army to which you belong, has included you in the list of figures who must be eliminated from the royalist party!

Your information is spreading with revelations from the Assassin Brotherhood, and interested revolutionary government officials in Paris have found out the details about you, such as being a yellow race, a mercenary, and being raised by a rural German couple!

So, don't try to cover up your past with a fluke mentality, the identity of the German mercenaries and the yellow race will naturally push you to the opposite side of the French power class, unless you show the strength to make the French upper class feel jealous!

When politicians feel that the benefits gained by eliminating a crisis are far less than the power they have lost, they will think very rationally about changing the facts in another way, which is the meaning of diplomacy and compromise in the exchange between countries.

Of course, the value of interests in the eyes of politicians and the value of interests in the eyes of businessmen are completely different concepts.

Make the most of the rewards you get this time, it will determine your future achievements, due to the unfavorable political situation of the Commander today, this reward will be based on military power, and all character follower rewards will be replaced with equivalent historical smash points. 】
