Chapter 91: Another Bad News
After Lin Haoda distributed the army, the line from the Paris City Hall to the outskirts of the Bastille under his control suddenly became impregnable, and the only thing that made him frown was that the sudden surge in the army, and the food expenses were also quite touching......
To this end, Lin Haoda began to fulfill his 'promise' to the envoys of the Marquis de Lafayette, using thousands of captives who had eaten for nothing as 'sacrifices'!
On the one hand, in order to save his own food reserves, Lin Haoda's army was able to hold out for a long time, and on the other hand, it was to deter the National Self-Defense Forces, and by the way, he put a pot of on the head of the National Revolutionary Government......
Under the propaganda of Lin Haoda's men, he ordered the massacre of the prisoners in his hands, entirely because the revolutionary government headed by the Marquis de Lafayette did not give itself a way to live, and had to start a war of revenge!
However, this basin did not have much substantive impact except for the fact that the revolutionary government headed by the Marquis de Lafayette had a little more trouble, and the credibility of the government had increased by a spurred culpability. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just that what puzzled Lin Haoda was that although the National Guard controlled by the Marquis de Lafayette had long been ready for battle, the other side did not launch an offensive, and the day and night of the 18th were another day of harmony and health......
In the early morning of the 19th, Lin Haoda still did not wait for the attack, but waited for a 'big news' deliberately released by the National Guard - the revolution had broken out in other French cities!
Rouen, a city located northwest of Paris, was the first to overthrow the old town hall due to the food crisis and encouraged by the success of the Paris Revolution, set up a committee system composed of many bigwigs to control the new town hall, and declared its allegiance to the Paris revolutionary regime!
This revolutionary revolt deepened the fears of the king's faction, and after Louis XVI bowed his head, the procuratorial system, the label of the king's autocracy in the Kingdom of France, completely collapsed in a matter of days!
It was not Louis XVI who took the initiative to withdraw them, but more than 30 procurators across the country, after learning of the outbreak of the Paris Revolution and the annihilation of the main force of the king's army, voluntarily resigned or simply hung up their seals and fled!
These procurators were the key to the French king's maintenance of autocratic rule in France, and the local procurators in France were equivalent to the provincial and even provincial governors of the Manchu Empire.
They have the right to supervise all local officials and town halls, and they have the power of local legislative, judicial, and administrative powers, and in addition to the inability to mobilize the army, the ombudsman can send almost all local bureaucrats to court!
It can be said that the Ombudsman has a great function at the local level, overriding all the local forces in France, and is a sharp blade for the King of France to exercise effective control over the whole of France!
This system was carried forward by Louis XIV, the Sun King of France, and it was also the key system for Louis XIV to complete a true absolute monarchy in France.
However, it is such a huge and high-powered system of inspectors, the speed of collapse made Lin Haoda stunned, more than 30 inspectors in the country, after getting the news of the victory of the revolution, none of them stuck to their posts, and the ruling power of King Louis XVI of France was like this...... Gone......
Of course, the collapse of the Inspectorate's constitution does not mean that the Inspectors dare not show their heads incognito, they just change their skins, and many Inspectors have even become the heads of the old town halls, and it is only the authority of the king that collapses, and the foundation of the nobles' local rights has not been affected much......
It's just that, as the famine spread and the news of the victory of the revolution in Paris spread further, after the collapse of the procuratorial system, the old town hall rule was also dealt a revolutionary blow!
In order to discourage the morale of Lin Haoda's army, the National Guard completely opened up the news of the revolution in the outside city to them.
In addition to Rouen, there was also a revolution in Strasbourg and other places, which overthrew the old town halls and established a bourgeois-headed council system, and the new town hall system under the management of these committees established after the revolution was in fact a smaller version of the National Constituent Assembly.
There were people who represented the interests of the lower classes of the people, as well as the original old power aristocracy, and, of course, the most numerous were all kinds of capitalists and bankers.
In the news obtained by Lin Haoda, not all of the revolutions that broke out in other major cities in France were victorious, and in the cities where the old power of the aristocracy was huge, this full-scale 'municipal revolution' in France triggered by the Paris Revolution was bloodily suppressed, and the original social order was continued to be maintained, even without the procurator, he still supported the rule of King Louis XVI!
The old aristocratic forces that were deeply rooted in France suppressed the so-called municipal revolutions in many cities, and of course, there were also cities where the revolutionary forces compromised with the old forces of the aristocracy, and although the new town hall changed its brand, a large number of aristocratic forces representing the old forces were involved in it, and the revolution in such cities was not carried out thoroughly, and the attitude towards the king and the revolution was also very vague......
What is even more interesting is that in some cities, there was no bloodshed, but the city hall was turned into a department of the 'general police', which was called revolution, but in fact it only deprived some people of their rights and status, and it was just a group of careerists who took advantage of the opportunity of the revolution to take advantage of the opportunity......
In short, the outbreak of revolution in France was an outbreak, but it was very chaotic, there was no one-sided situation, and it was not suppressed by the powerful aristocratic class, on the contrary, it greatly promoted the integration and understanding of the aristocratic forces and the local bourgeoisie......
Of course, for the constitutional monarchists of the Marquis de Lafayette, this revolution was still more beneficial to them, and a large number of cities that continued to maintain allegiance to King Louis XVI did not conflict with the interests of the constitutional monarchists at all, and the old power aristocracy could not be eradicated by the revolution, providing a clear example of the political correctness of the constitutional monarchists!
This municipal revolution seemed to tell the French people - behold, the nobility could not be overthrown, so it was better to compromise with the king and govern the country together!
The popularity of the Constitutional Monarchists once again gained modest growth after the outbreak of the nationwide municipal revolution, which was undoubtedly bad news for Lin Haoda, because it meant that over time the Marquis de Lafayette could mobilize the human and material resources of other cities to form a new force of the National Guard......
