Chapter 118: The King's Approval

After an hour of exchange, Meunier and Lin Haoda reached a preliminary intention of cooperation, and the official statement of the revolutionary government, Meunier did not bother to say that he was sent by the Marquis de Lafayette, which was supposed to reserve a way back for the constitutional monarchists.

Marquis Lafayette really doesn't want to continue fighting, to put it against his will, Lin Haoda doesn't want to participate in politics, so what if he is killed?

If it can be destroyed, it will naturally be less troublesome, the problem is that the Marquis of Lafayette has realized that before Lin Haoda is destroyed, his position will definitely collapse first!

In order to annihilate a mercenary army that clearly supports the king, and to bury his own future, the Marquis de Lafayette has not been so selfless as the Grand Duke......

Of course, private communication and compromise have become inevitable, and in the face of interests, there are no eternal enemies, only common interests!

If the Constitutional Monarchists continue to fight, they may not be completely finished, but the Marquis de Lafayette will definitely be finished!

This is why the Marquis de Lafayette did everything in his power to stop the war.

As for some of the living materials that Lin Haoda asked, although the amount is not small, for the crisis of being driven out of the city of Paris, most people of the revolutionary government are still willing to pay, these parliamentarians themselves are local tyrants, and each person's blood is enough to feed Lin Haoda's army for a long time, not to mention, the revolutionary government has looted all the public assets in Paris, and the food and materials are still very sufficient in a short period of time.

In addition to the resolute opposition of the democratic radicals led by Robespierre, which was ruthlessly rejected, the proposal to 'buy' Lin Haoda to suspend the offensive with daily necessities passed relatively smoothly, which was also an open secret of the upper echelons of the revolutionary government.

No matter what kind of regime it is, the information of the upper and lower levels has never been equal, and the information that the common people know is always processed in short supply!

The armed men under the control of the revolutionary government will only know that the benevolent and generous revolutionary government secretly sends food to the Parisian compatriots controlled by the blue devil, but they will not know that the food is all stored in the Bastille warehouse by Lin Haoda's soldiers!

Rather than the smooth exchange of food and supplies, the controversy in the revolutionary government was the dispatch of a delegation by Lin Haoda to communicate with King Louis XVI.

It was not until the end that the Marquis de Lafayette reluctantly won the approval of the revolutionary government with Lin Haoda's theory of military threat, and naturally, the Marquis de Lafayette was denounced by the democratic radicals as a lackey of the king and a traitor to the revolution from beginning to end......

After getting the opportunity to communicate directly with King Louis XVI, Lin Haoda was overjoyed, and looked at the Marquis de Sade who had a relationship with each other, and with the approval of King Louis XVI and the revolutionary government, it was the skilled Marquis de Sade who led the way to the envoy sent by Lin Haoda.

The marquis de Sade was the first time he was 'familiar' with Lin Haoda, and the truce between the revolutionary government and Lin Haoda that the Marquis de Lafayette tried his best to promote made the little people who knew Lin Haoda before wait for the opportunity to 'shine' for France.

On July 23, 1789, the warring parties in the city of Paris did not sign any agreement on paper, but tacitly stopped the exchange of fire, although the border between the two sides was still a tense situation, but the soldiers had been restrained by their superiors in the act of war, and they were not allowed to shoot first before the other side launched an attack!

At noon on the 23rd, under the leadership of the Marquis de Sade, a delegation of less than ten Lin Haoda rode to the Palace of Versailles on horseback.

There were no important people under Lin Haoda's command in the envoy group, and he was not worried about losses, and Lin Haoda's meaning was written in the letter, and Lin Haoda, who had already publicly expressed his allegiance to King Louis XVI, did not need to hide anything in the letter.

No one is qualified to let Lin Haoda hide anything at this time!

After receiving the guarantee of Lin Haoda's ceasefire, the revolutionary government, on the one hand, reorganized the National Guard Forces to prevent Lin Haoda from suddenly turning around and launching an attack, and on the other hand, sent envoys to the big cities that had already succeeded in the municipal revolution......

The inefficiency of the adoption of the parliamentary system was fully manifested, and even after the armistice had been held in the city of Paris, the process of establishing a new regime and communicating with the outside world was very slow, and the main external pressure was lost, and the revolutionary government returned to the 'democratic mode of deliberation'.

Democracy here refers to democracy between the bourgeois bigwigs and the aristocracy, and in addition to the interests of the burghers, the interests of other bigwigs must be taken into account!

Oh yes, the interests of the burghers are not completely ignored, and how to feed the burghers is still very important to the revolutionary government, because they know too well the key factors for the outbreak of the revolution!

At this time, the democratic radicals wielded much more power and propaganda than they had before the revolution, and if they continued to starve the burghers, it was almost certain that the revolution would break out again.

The communication between Lin Haoda's people and King Louis XVI was very smooth, and in fact, King Louis XVI and Maria XVI. Queen Antoinette didn't expect that Lin Haoda would have the ability to defeat the main force of the National Guard in the city of Paris!

This is great news for the king's lineage, and Lin Haoda's foreign identity as an Asian yellow who originally left a pimple in the heart of King Louis XVI has also become a trivial matter at this time.

King Louis XVI had enough of the disguised house arrest of armed citizens stationed at Versailles!

Therefore, the canonization of the honorary baronial noble, which had been withdrawn by King Louis XVI, was once again taken out by King Louis XVI, and in front of Lin Haoda's envoy, King Louis XVI almost couldn't wait to promise: "As long as Lin Haoda and his army can swear allegiance to me in public in the future reorganized government, the honor and the title of nobility of the French Foreign Legion will be in his pocket!" ”

When the messenger brought the news back to the Bastille on the 24th, Lin Haoda finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the king's approval was a prerequisite for all his subsequent actions, if even the king did not approve of him and his army, Lin Haoda could really only be a 'powerful bandit army' after the revolution......

The title of honorary baron may not seem high, but it is definitely a worthwhile breakthrough for Lin Haoda, which means that he has jumped from a useless commoner to the upper social threshold of the Kingdom of France in one fell swoop!

With his aristocratic status, coupled with the military power controlled by Lin Haoda, who would dare to underestimate him?

In continental European countries, the rank only represents the glorious past of the family, not the real influence of this person on the entire country, and the status of the upper class also needs to be based on strength, and the down-and-out nobles are not in the minority in European countries!
