In Robespierre's eyes, no matter how unscrupulous the Marquis de Lafayette was, at most he would purge the democratic-patriot politicians who stood in the way on the table, but what about Lin Haoda...... Robespierre doubted that the butcher, who had been labelled as a warlord of the old power class, a die-hard supporter of the king, and an enemy of the people, would kill all the democrats he could see after the capture of Paris......

Since the rise of Lin Haoda, among the various events he has experienced, he has often seen ruthless measures to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so Robespierre can only go to Versailles for the sake of his own life and the safety of the key members of the Jacobin Club.

The reason why Versailles was chosen over other cities is only because Versailles is the capital of France, and Versailles, with King Louis XVI, can also be regarded as the political center of the Kingdom of France.

No matter how well he mixes in the foreign provinces of the Kingdom of France, he is just a 'provincial governor', and if he is done in the political center of the Kingdom of France, he is the ruler of the whole of France!

That's why most of the politicians of sufficient size are gathered in Versailles and the city of Paris.

In other words, if the hostile politicians of Versailles and Paris were to be bloodied, the superstructure of this faction would be basically bulldozed......

The remaining small fish and shrimp will either leave the political faction without the superstructure and join other factions with strong political power, or they will barely support themselves to become an inconsequential little club, which will be banned by the French government or swallowed up by other political factions at some point in the future......

When the early morning of September 30 fell, Lieutenant Colonel Siri Lafaeli, who had already made an appointment for the attack, suddenly rushed out of the Bastille fortress with thousands of troops, and quickly controlled the eastern area of the city of Paris, because the democratic patriots in the Paris city hall were digesting and controlling the National Guard forces privately handed over to them by the Marquis de Lafayette, and they were very slow to respond to the military action of the Bastille fortress. Lieutenant Colonel Siri Rafaeli's choice of target was not the Hôtel de Ville, which was guarded by the Paris police and militia converted from the National Guard, but rather to a position close to the city gates.

The few militiamen defending the city were routed in less than half an hour under the undeclared blows of the French Foreign Legion, and tens of thousands of soldiers in blue uniforms and high hats lined up in a neat queue, holding flintlock muskets with bayonets and running into the city of Paris!

At this time, Lin Haoda had already redeemed all the saved troop cards, plus the 5,000 troops in the Bastille Fortress, there were more than 30,000 troops attacking Paris at this time, and the infantry and cavalry artillery were complete!

Of course, the main force in street fighting was still infantry, and slow-moving artillery units were also useful in defensive battles, and hussar units were difficult to find a battlefield to charge in the dense buildings of Paris.

After more than two months, the citizens of Paris were once again horrified to see that group of 'blue demons' rushed into the city of Paris with weapons to kill civilians, and when Lin Haoda rode into the city of Paris on a high-headed white horse, the alarm bell of the city of Paris finally sounded, and the Paris City Council, which was suddenly attacked, began to organize the Paris police and militia armed from the National Guard in a panic, and pulled out the firearms from the arsenal to arm their supporters!

However, before the Paris City Council could arm the people, the French Foreign Legion holding the golden fleur-de-lis eagle flag hit the periphery of the town hall, and the militia and Paris police, who had been at peace for a long time and had no preparation for war, were scattered by a burst of guns, and were assaulted by the line infantry with a round of bayonet charges, and there were even many pro-patriot politicians with sluggish faces who did not have time to escape, that is, members of the Paris City Hall Committee!

However, Lin Haoda obviously did not mean to leave the lives of this group of politicians whose positions were destined to be in a hostile relationship with him, just as these democratic patriot politicians shouted their noble status and demanded preferential treatment for the prisoners, rows of bayonets stabbed into their bodies mercilessly!

The armed forces controlled by the democratic patriots in the city of Paris, after the city hall was quickly broken, instantly fell into the embarrassing situation of being leaderless, and could only fight separately under the command of the democratic patriots in other regions!

After the democratic patriots took control of the Paris city hall, the entire city of Paris was divided into more than 60 districts, each of which had a main responsible district governor, which was also a measure for the distribution of power among the democratic patriot politicians, and this measure strengthened the control of Paris, the capital of the French Kingdom.

It's a pity that administrative control does not mean military control, in less than half a day, there are more than 30 districts in the entire city of Paris, more than half of the Paris urban area was planted with the golden fleur-de-lis eagle flag, under Lin Haoda's strict order, the line infantry launched a strong attack on the entire Paris city regardless of casualties!

With more than 30,000 troops, the French Foreign Legion could launch simultaneous attacks from multiple points at the same time, and the armed forces in the hands of the democratic patriots who fought separately were miserable.

However, Lin Haoda soon discovered the fact that he was trapped, the city of Paris is not at all what the king said in his secret decree, there are only police and a few militiamen who have never fought, although the armed forces resisting the French Foreign Legion are indeed wearing the clothes of the Paris police and the militia, but the front-line commander of the French Foreign Legion who has fought an old war can see at a glance that this is an army with regular military training!

After the success of the French Revolution, the reorganized National Guard never stopped regular military training, and it has long been reborn from the paramilitary organizations that were hastily formed during the Revolution.

At least, at this time, the National Guard is no longer armed with militias that only know how to charge in a swarm, they will also walk in line and shoot platoons!

More than two months of military training was enough for these soldiers to master basic military skills.

This is the era of queuing to shoot, the countries of the European continent have a small population, but they have enough troops to colonize the whole world while fighting each other non-stop!

The popularization of muskets has made the training of the army many times simpler than in the era of cold weapons, soldiers only need to learn to walk in line and follow orders to shoot, and the easy-to-operate flintlock pistol can even be played by a ten-year-old child!

These transformed National Guards, numbering in the tens of thousands, and relying on the support of the citizens of Paris and the difficult terrain of street fighting, fought tenaciously are completely different from what the king said in his secret decree!

And the transfer order to transfer the National Guard of Paris City to Versailles for training is probably also used to cover people's eyes and ears and fool Lin Haoda!

As Jia Xu said, the French Foreign Legion is just a pawn of the Versailles gang, but they ignore a problem, the strength of the French Foreign Legion has doubled, and it is much stronger than before!

In the eyes of the Marquis de Lafayette, the French Foreign Legion, which originally had only more than 10,000 people, faced with the more than 10,000 National Guards he deliberately left behind, fought street battles in the city of Paris, even if it could win, it would definitely delay for a long time and suffer heavy losses.

When the time comes, the Marquis de Lafayette, who relied on the constitutional monarchist bourgeoisie to control the French government, and the National Guard, which has tens of thousands of reorganized national guards, can completely rely on the government's righteousness and military oppression to recover the city of Paris, which has been defeated by both sides!

If the democratic patriots win in the city of Paris, the Marquis de Lafayette will be able to easily eliminate the democratic patriots who have little strength left, and if Lin Haoda's French Foreign Legion wins, he can also completely eliminate this mercenary army, which has always been independent of the French government.

Without the French Foreign Legion, an armed force that holds high the king's banner, King Louis XVI would have become a puppet in the hands of the Marquis de Lafayette!

The old power class that was scared out of Versailles by the democratic patriots with the popular movement could not stop the Marquis de Lafayette, and the democratic patriots were eliminated again, and the French Foreign Legion, a warlike mercenary regiment with the label of the king's diehard, became a historical term, and this was the ultimate purpose of the conspiracy of the Marquis de Lafayette!

When the time comes, the Marquis de Lafayette, who holds the National Guard, can go back and re-restrict the rights of King Louis XVI, buy the hearts of the French people at the bottom, have military power and popular support, plus a group of bold constitutional monarchist bourgeoisie control the National Constituent Assembly, the Marquis de Lafayette can sit back to the position of the 'prime minister' of the Kingdom of France very safely, and the position of the Marquis de Lafayette, who has eliminated so many political enemies at once, will be more stable than before!

The only downside is that the city of Paris will be in ruins by the French Foreign Legion and the armed forces of the democratic patriots, and that the French government will undergo a bloody purge in the political arena!

Of course, the Marquis de Lafayette, whose soul was eroded by the lust for power, did not care at all about these damages to his homeland, and he saw only a victory of killing three birds with one stone!

Killing the Marquis de Lafayette would not have imagined that the strength of the French Foreign Legion, which had just suppressed a circle of mud-legged revolutions in the countryside of the Paris region, would be doubled!

The French Foreign Legion, which is already more elite than the National Guard, plus more than double the strength advantage, how long can the democratic patriots in Paris hold out under Lin Haoda's surprise attack regardless of losses?

The Marquis de Lafayette did not know this at this time, and the Marquis de Lafayette, who had been prepared for a long time, learned of the news of the unauthorized entry of the French Foreign Legion into the city of Paris shortly after dawn on September 30, and in the eyes of the Marquis de Lafayette, everything was going smoothly according to the original plan.
