169 Battle of Paris
Da, da, da......
The sound of tall military boots stepping on the corridor of the Versailles palace sounded, and the Marquis de Lafayette, dressed in military uniform, walked with a proud smile on the corner of his mouth while admiring the much deserted Versailles, and felt very pleasing to the soldiers in the corridors wearing the uniform of the National Guard, and the red, white and blue tricolor flags hanging high above the Palace of Versailles.

The soldiers of the National Guard, who guarded the door of King Louis XVI's residence, gave a military salute and pushed open the door for the Marquis de Lafayette.
"Your Majesty and Your Highness the Queen, we meet again."
The Marquis de Lafayette symbolically took off his wide-brimmed military hat with expensive feathers, made a slight aristocratic gesture, and looked at King Louis XVI and his wife with ugly faces with a smile.
"Lafayette, do you know the consequences of what you did?! Do not think that all people, like the uninformed pauper, will be deceived by your clumsy tricks, and it will not be long before the whole kingdom of France will know your despicable face as a fraudster! You will be judged by the law and sent to the gallows to be hanged! ”
Maria. Queen Antoinette's high chest rose and fell violently because of anger, outlining a seductive arc, but no one in the men present would care about these details at this time, and the Marquis de Lafayette looked down at Maria with a high posture. Queen Antoinette flicked the dust that did not exist on the brim of her hat, put it back on her head elegantly and said: "Her Royal Highness doesn't seem to have figured out your situation yet, now you should think about how to keep your royal power, instead of thinking about things that have nothing to do with you, worrying about things that shouldn't be worried, it's easy to get angry, hehe~~~."
My time is precious now, and I don't have time to waste on meaningless nonsense, Your Majesty, as long as you are willing to talk to me' Sincerely' cooperation, you can still keep your crown, and even I can keep your veto power in Parliament, and you and the queen will also allocate a part of the food and clothing from the treasury of the Kingdom of France, of course, a certain woman can no longer squander the fruits of the labor of the French people as unscrupulously as before, this is already the most reward I can give Your Majesty, you know very well, if you let the democrats take power, whether Your Majesty can keep your throne is still unknown, at least, I am still very optimistic about the superiority of the royal power, and I also attach great importance to the friendship of the Habsburgs! “
When the Marquis de Lafayette spoke of the Habsburgs, he looked at Maria. Queen Antoinette.
King Louis XVI and Maria. Queen Antoinette fell silent after hearing this, although the Marquis de Lafayette restricted their personal freedom, but compared with the period when the democratic patriots were in power, King Louis XVI did not continue to be deprived of his political rights, and King Louis XVI, who had the right to put aside the veto, at least avoided the end of being completely reduced to a 'dynasty mascot'.
And, in the Marquis de Lafayette's assurance, the standard of living of the royal family will not drop much. Queen Antoinette could not have wasted her money extravagantly, without counting the grievances of being deceived by the Marquis de Lafayette, Louis XVI and Maria. Queen Antoinette actually did not suffer much in this political purge, although the previous democratic patriot politicians did not replace the Royal Guards of Versailles with the National Guard, but the symbolism of hundreds of Royal Guards was far greater than the practical significance, and King Louis XVI wanted to leave Versailles, and he also needed the consent of the National Constituent Assembly!
Therefore, from the point of view of interests, the conditions given by the Marquis de Lafayette seem to be the best, after all, he used the 'excuse' of opposing autocracy to deceive the people into ascending to the throne, and from any point of view, it is impossible to allow the restoration of the king's autocratic power!
Half an hour later, the Marquis de Lafayette, who had solved the problem of King Louis XVI, left the Palace of Versailles, and appeased the king Louis XVI, mainly the Marquis de Lafayette, in order to prevent the old nobles from the provinces from rebelling when his foundation was not stable, and re-ascended to the position of speaker, the Marquis de Lafayette once again went back to the old way, in a vain attempt to balance the two large classes of nobles and French commoners, and to profit from them and maintain his position solid.
Compared with the former Marquis Lafayette, he was just cruel at this time, and his political wisdom could be said to have made no progress, and the Marquis de Lafayette had not seen through the nature of the turmoil in the Kingdom of France until this time!
What happened in the city of Paris when the Marquis de Lafayette spent two days in Versailles changing the world and returning to the presidency of the National Constituent Assembly?
In a fierce offensive and defensive battle on September 30, the main force of the Paris police force and militia, which had been transformed from the original National Guard, was completely defeated by the French Foreign Legion that attacked at any cost.
However, the resistance of the tens of thousands of regular armed forces was not in vain, and before their main forces were defeated, the democratic-patriotic politicians of the various regions, who had been slow to react, finally mobilized the Parisian burghers!
The democratic-patriot politicians gave full play to their advantages in verbal propaganda, and when Lin Haoda, the commander of the French Foreign Legion, suppressed the peasant rebels in the Paris region, the crime of slaughtering civilians in rural towns became more and more severe throughout the Paris city, and the titles of butcher and people's executioner were buttoned one after another on the head of the outsider Lin Haoda, which caused great panic among the citizens of Paris!
In addition, when Lin Haoda was rising in the Bastille, he wantonly killed the seeds of hatred planted by the armed forces of the citizens of Paris in street battles, and tied them together, which detonated the blood in the hearts of the citizens of Paris in the area controlled by the democrats patriots!
They are not only fighting for the red, white and blue tricolor of freedom and equality, but also for the right to exist for themselves and their families!
The Paris police were defeated, the Paris militia was defeated, but the people of Paris stood up!
The red, white and blue tricolor flags, which had been riddled with bullet holes, were picked up again by the citizens of Paris in shabby clothes, who used the firearms in the Paris armory, the weapons left behind by the defeated Paris police and militia, and blocked the path of the line infantry charge regardless of life and death!
The citizens of Paris are fighting in their homeland, on the side of their relatives and families, not only men, but also the elderly, women and even half-grown children, who have joined the fight against the golden fleur-de-lis eagle banner.
Under the impassioned propaganda of the democratic patriots, among the crimes committed by the French Foreign Legion, the city of Paris for the first time set off a model of national resistance!
The commander of the French Foreign Legion on the front line was surprised to find that after the soldiers from the regular army were defeated, the ordinary civilian armed forces that took over actually played with the momentum of the regular army, and the difference between the two sides was that the regular army resisted with trained combat skills, and the citizens of Paris resisted with their own flesh and blood!
Every time the line infantry thought that they had crushed the enemy and occupied a neighborhood, they would always be killed by the seemingly harmless women and children hidden in the houses, and the citizens of Paris would indiscriminately attack any soldier in a blue uniform, using all the instruments that could cause harm to the human body!
When Casio. When Thunder saw an old French grandfather who couldn't walk and detonated the black powder explosives hidden under him when the line infantry passed by, he finally realized a reality, they were not fighting against the city government of Paris, but with the entire burgher class of Paris!
Orders were given to attack indiscriminately at the base of each company, and the line infantry was told that they could unconditionally open fire on all ordinary civilians who approached them unconditionally!
Whether the other party is an old man, a woman or a child, as long as you don't want to die, you can shoot it!
This order greatly reduced the probability of the infantry being killed by scattered attacks, but the large number of 'accidental wounds to civilians' made the French Foreign Legion even more hateful in the hearts of the citizens of Paris, who also took up arms to join the resistance in order to avoid accidental injuries or to avenge their innocent relatives and friends.
The line infantry attacking the front line were horrified to find that they wanted to take full control of a block, and it was no longer as simple as crushing the enemy army, they had to search every house and destroy any moving humanoids hidden inside!
After all, the line infantry is just an ordinary soldier, and they do not have the consciousness to take the initiative to sacrifice their lives for Lin Haoda, they are willing to unconditionally obey the order to kill, but they do not want to obey the order to commit suicide......
With the passage of time, a large number of line infantry junior officers were killed, and the grassroots officers who were temporarily promoted were originally from the line infantry soldiers, far less loyal and reliable than the grassroots officers originally given by the system.
After Jia Xu saw the street battle in Paris City entering a state of anxiety, he once again said a 'poisonous plan' to Lin Haoda: "Lord, we only need to occupy Paris City to get a huge boost from the system, whether it is the intact Paris City or the ruined Paris City is the same for us, since the Parisians want to fight to the death with us, we will simply set fire to the entire Paris City residential houses, as long as those arsenals and material production workshops that are useful to us are left, The greatest obstacle to the advance of the army was the numerous and disorganized residences of the citizens of Paris, whose buildings burned down no matter how much we lost.
Time is very precious to us, and if we are not able to take Paris tomorrow, we will most likely lose the initiative against Versailles! “
