Chapter 114: Hypocrisy and Grievance

Compared with the bloody battle of the day and night on the 21st, the battle on the 22nd calmed down and came so abruptly and reassuringly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Whether it is the soldiers under Lin Haoda or the soldiers who obey the call of the revolution, they all cherish this rare scene very much.

Street fighting means that the distance between the enemy and us is shorter, and it is easier to exchange fire, which is far less than in the field battle, where the two military formations are hundreds of kilometers apart, and you can calmly fire at the enemy.

In the battle in the city, the soldiers did not even dare to guarantee that their backs were absolutely safe, because there were too many places to hide people in the rows of houses, and the chaotic battle scenes also made it impossible for the soldiers to check one corner after another, and there were too many enemies waiting for the soldiers to clear them.

After the ceasefire between the two sides on the 22nd, Lin Haoda was busy expanding the army and adjusting the new establishment, reorganizing the troops that suffered great losses after the war, and reasonably distributing the newly recruited new forces to positions that needed manpower.

Of course, Lin Haoda is busy preparing for the war, and the revolutionary government will not just look at it, as the defeated revolutionary government needs to do more things, and the work is heavier!

During the day on the 22nd, Lin Haoda and the revolutionary government were trying to adjust their troops and armed personnel in an effort to adjust the state to the best before the next battle.

It was on such a day when there were frequent troop movements between the two sides, that Mounier, the diplomatic representative of the revolutionary government, once again led a few retinues into the Bastille under a white flag.

Lin Haoda has never closed the door to foreign exchanges, he is not a fool, he knows that his strength is a mantis arm for the whole of France, the reason why he can achieve this achievement is just to take advantage of the revolutionary gap in the Kingdom of France to subvert the king's autocracy, fishing in troubled waters, with the re-assembling of the political map of the Kingdom of France, France's national war potential as one of the five major powers of the European continent will gradually burst out.

Even though France lost most of its overseas colonies at this time and was kicked off the throne of the colonial empire by the British, Lin Haoda still understands the truth that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that the power of France is not 'thin' at all!

The king's mercenaries in Paris and Versailles were gone, but the armies scattered throughout France, as well as the regular armies capable of carrying guns, were unable to support the revolution in Paris only because they were themselves at a crossroads of confusion.

The collapse of the procurator system, the continuous outbreak of municipal revolutions in other provincial cities, so that these French regular army generals have to choose a reliable political position, the French national ideology has long been divergent among the people, those French generals are still very resistant to fighting a civil war, the modern European continental power is much stronger than the cohesion of the Eastern feudal countries at that time, even if it is not as obvious as the nationalist countries of later generations, but it is not easy to separate them, especially for France Minorities don't dominate the country!

It can be said that there are still many seemingly visible armies in France today, but most of them have lost their allegiance, and some of them have even simply turned into participants in the municipal revolution or accomplices of the aristocracy!

At this time, the impression left in the outer provinces of the Kingdom of France can basically be summed up in one sentence - the king is gone, the high court is gone, the army and police are gone, and only all kinds of town halls remain!

Although Lin Haoda does not fully understand these situations, he still knows the general situation, which is also where he has the confidence to use force to fight for his rights!

Lin Haoda believed that it was the revolutionary government that received the benefits of the revolutionary 'property' of the whole country more than a small mercenary army loyal to the king!

Lin Haoda only needed to let the Marquis de Lafayette of the revolutionary government know that eliminating him would break two front teeth.

Anyone who is not strong is willing to do a 'show of hands', but if this enemy has the strength to make their own muscles and bones hurt, the person who attacked them must think carefully about the benefits and losses.

Therefore, Lin Haoda is more eager for peaceful exchanges than the revolutionary government, when the strength is insufficient, the war is just an auxiliary means to pull the opponent to the negotiating table, he urgently needs the public positioning of his identity, no matter how the 'name is not right', Lin Haoda is a rebel army, even if he holds high the banner of supporting the king, it is just wishful thinking.

Only if the king or the revolutionary government openly acknowledges his identity can he be justified!

If Lin Haoda can't correct his name, as long as the revolution in the Kingdom of France subsides, he will be the first target to be liquidated.

The bandits may be at ease, but the life of the bandits is not the kind of King of the Easy Mountain played in film and television dramas, just the food, drink, and supplies of the soldiers can drag Lin Haoda down!

Under the encirclement and suppression of the national army, an armed army without a popular base is a dish......

The revolutionary government has always firmly believed that time is on their side, and Lin Haoda naturally knows this truth, and he must take advantage of the fact that he has not lost power to win the opportunity to correct his name!

As long as the revolutionary government or King Louis XVI makes a public statement, even if Lin Haoda sits on the throne of the king's line, at that time, even if the civil war really starts, the nobles who support the king will not do anything against Lin Haoda's department, even if the revolutionary government kills Louis XVI and turns France into a republic, Lin Haoda can also hold high the banner of protecting the king and work with the huge French local forces that support the king's line to carry on the civil war!

Lin Haoda is well aware of his biggest flaw in France - about the same as the foundation of nothing!

This is also the reason why most mercenary leaders can only go home with a generous commission after the war, because the mercenary leaders are all rooted civilians whether they are in the upper class or in the people, and it is impossible to carve out their own careers in the European continent monopolized by nobles and capitalists by a group of soldiers and brothers who fight wars, unless this mercenary leader is canonized by the big nobles and even the king!

To put it bluntly, Lin Haoda's path is also the old way of a mercenary leader in disguise, who obtained his canonization through his support for the king, and then justifiably opened up a safe haven of his own in the French political storm.

Unlike the Eastern countries where soldiers are the king of grass, in Europe, orthodoxy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and seniority is the unspoken rule of the upper class society in Europe.
