284 Under the iron fist of the revolution

The commander-in-chief of Rennes City finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he still admired the unswerving image of these political commissioners as 'Guangweizheng', and admired the other party's concept of the country, nation and freedom very much, but after fighting for so long and sending away wave after wave of French youths to heaven, this general has seen through the essence of the revolution!

If the future of the French nation was to be exchanged for the lives of an entire generation of French youth, he would rather give up the future of the French nation!

Isn't man's first right to live?

Why shed the blood of a generation of the French nation for freedom and equality?!

The general commander-in-chief of Rennes doesn't understand, and he doesn't want to understand, he just wants to withdraw the remaining French lads in his hands from the fire pit in Rennes, the defense line of the city wall has collapsed, and in the street fighting, the Young Guards can definitely make the Republican Resistance 'cry' casualties, those Young Guards are too 'professional'......

"I don't want to listen to your so-called empty talk that the national interest is above all else, I only see that almost all the young adults in Rennes City outside are constantly being killed by lead bullets and bayonets, and their flesh and blood are flying from shells!

From the battle of Caen to the present, the Republic has paid the price of hundreds of thousands of people, I don't understand, Lin Haoda is not trying to exterminate the French nation, why should he continue to fight!! β€œ

The military-level political commissioner was naturally Robespierre's absolute confidant, and Robespierre had given a death order to resist to the end in Rennes, buying time for the cities in the rear to train recruits to continue the war of resistance.

Moreover, the military-level commissioner also received a direct instruction from Robespierre in private, even if the entire French people in Rennes were glorious, they should hold back the attack of the Young Guards!

As a glorious city of the French Revolution, Rennes naturally has to pay its due responsibilities at the difficult moment of the revolution, and after the victory of the revolution, Rennes will get its due reward, well, if the revolution wins......

"As a general of the Republic, don't you see the importance of the city of Rennes to the First French Republic?

As long as Rennes is in the hands of the Republic, Lin Haoda's army will not be able to penetrate deep into the last revolutionary stronghold in the western part of Brittany, and we will have a steady stream of new recruits to the front line to continue to fight against Lin Haoda.

When the soldiers of the revolutionary army died, they mobilized all the youth of Rennes to fight, using swords without muskets and kitchen knives without swords. β€œ

"Well, you're right, so the city of Versailles and the city of Paris were almost slaughtered by Lin Haoda at the beginning, you look at the current population of Versailles and Paris, half of what is the population before the revolution?

I kind of understand, you Robespierre supporters are demons who will do anything for the revolution, you are no different from Lin Haoda, except that Lin Haoda started the war for his own selfish desires, and you are a group of butchers who hold high the banner of revolution and bleed the French nation! β€œ

"Watch your words! It was Lin Haoda's people who killed the soldiers of the revolutionary army, I don't care about your past achievements, if you continue to be so stubborn, you will be the sinners of the entire French nation, the French nation will never succumb to the hands of foreign dictatorship, the heroic French are not cowardly French royal families, we would rather die in battle than surrender to Lin Haoda! ”

The military-level political commissioner put his palm on the holster of the gun at his side vigilantly, and he realized that the 'mental state' of the commander-in-chief of Rennes City was already on the verge of madness, and he dared to doubt the great significance of the revolution.

The interests of the state are above all else!!

The dignity of the French nation is naturally much more important than the lives of the young and strong generation of the French nation, not to mention, now only hundreds of thousands of people have died, but the French nation has a population of more than 20 million, what are you afraid of?

Hundreds of thousands of people are nothing to the French nation, but this military-level political commissioner subconsciously ignored a problem, the hundreds of thousands of dead people are just a young man in Brittany, not the whole of France!

Brittany is less than one-fifth the size of the whole of France, and hundreds of thousands of young people have taken it in, and it is really almost a generation of Brittany......

Of course, Robespierre's government had already relaxed the age limit for joining the army indefinitely, and the revolutionary army was not all young and strong, uncles and teenage children in their forties abounded, and the logistics were full of a large number of French women and ...... Girlish......

The mobilization of the whole people is not just talk, if it were not for the fact that the organization of Robespierre's government was to cross the river by feeling the stones, it was far less advanced and inefficient than the revolutionary ideas of later generations, and many people died meaninglessly at the guns of the Young Guards during the battle, resulting in a casualty ratio of about 10 to 1, which made Robespierre's government repeatedly defeated.

However, when the Young Guards attacked the city of Rennes, they were almost at the limit, and there were only less than 30,000 field troops left, even if the garrison occupying Brittany was included, and now Lin Haoda had less than 50,000 Young Guards in Brittany, so you can imagine how fierce the resistance of Robespierre's government was!

Of course, at such a heavy price, not only the front-line revolutionary army officers began to doubt the correctness of the revolution, but even the voices of peace began to appear within Robespierre's ruling government, and the trauma caused by the war was too great, and even the sans-culottes at the bottom no longer worshipped Robespierre as fanatically as before!

Almost every family member in Brittany has friends and relatives who died in the war.

The commander of Rennes City looked at the actions of the military-level political commissioner touching the gun, and his eyes seemed to have lost the color of life: "Okay, let me ask you one last thing, are you willing to die in Rennes City with me?" ”

The face of the military-level political commissioner regained a 'righteous' smile: "Of course, the interests of the country are above all else, and naturally I am also ahead of my life, the revolutionary army has died on the citizen volunteers, and the volunteers have collapsed the citizens of Rennes City, if it doesn't work again, you and I will take all the government officials to go up and fight hard." ”

After hearing this, the commander-in-chief of Rennes City asked a very stupid and naΓ―ve question: "Your Excellency the honorable commissioner, why do you put yourself in the charge queue behind the citizens of Rennes City?" ”

The face of the military-level political commissioner turned gloomy, do you still need to ask this kind of question? Say it so directly, it's pure to find fault!

Do you really dare not kill generals with the iron fist of the revolution?
