Ask for recommendation votes, recommendation votes are getting worse and worse!

As soon as Governor Trochu ordered Napoleon to transfer nearly 4,000 men from the Paris garrison, and the Minister of War Le Vlo, who had originally wanted to ask, was also blocked back with a sentence of "no comment", he no longer dared to trouble the other party, and a man who could see the portrait wherever he went to Paris became the hope of France.

From the Champs-Élysées to the Place de la Concorde, from Fontainebleau to the Louvre, the name of Napoleon was passed down by word of mouth among the Parisian people, and with the historical great man who defeated the anti-French alliance five times, the republicans who had originally been disdainful of this "noisy" guy also began to slowly change their attitudes.

A lie repeated a thousand times will become a reality, not to mention the fact that Hugo and other republican mouthpieces of public opinion have created a campaign for Napoleon, saying that even the people of Paris are about to believe that that man is the reincarnation of Napoleon.

He led the people to victory over the encirclement and suppression of the five anti-French alliances, and the Franco-Prussian War will also lead the people to victory.

In Napoleon's view, the parliament was trusted by the people, but it could not rule efficiently, and the people oscillated between the anguish of administrative inefficiency and the fear of autocracy. When administrative efficiency is too low, autocracy seems tolerable for them; And when autocracy does come, there seems to be nothing wrong with administrative inefficiency.

Even the poet Heine, who claimed to be the bridge between France and Germany, ridiculed the French when he ridiculed Germany, saying: "The English love freedom like a legal wife, and usually ignore it, but whoever dares to reach out will fight with you." The French love freedom like a lover, sometimes they are as passionate as fire, and once they lose their enthusiasm, they ignore it. Germans love freedom like their grandmothers, and they usually can't remember it, and they cry when they think about it. ”

So Napoleon chose the community of parliament and dictatorship, the people's democratic dictatorship.

The contradiction between the underground of administrative efficiency and the dictatorship of the dictatorship was eased.

This does not mean, however, that Napoleon was a kind man, and that the savior of France spread along with the casual chatter of the upper classes, who kept the man at the Tuileries Palace secret, and called him a demon in Napoleon's garb.

"You never know when a man will stick a butcher's knife out of your neck."

Baron Haussmann remembered this famous saying, and if he hadn't sided with Napoleon when he chose to take sides, he might have been thrown into the Seine to feed the fish by now.

So when he received a summons from Napoleon to go to the Tuileries, his legs trembled uncontrollably as he ascended the marble steps.

Following the assistant through the relief-carved Richelieu corridor, to the corner where the elegant meeting room unfolded in front of Baron Haussmann.

And the man standing inside made him feel worried in his heart.

It's so similar.

Baron Osman's heart was marked with a shadow.

"You may be seated."

Napoleon didn't drag his feet and got straight to the point after inviting the Ottoman baron to the door.

"I know that the whole city of Paris was designed by Baron Haussmann, so you know the structure of the city very well, so the question is, have you ever thought about how to deal with the conflict if there is a war in the city of Paris?"

Baron Ottoman knew that this was Napoleon's test for him, so he quickly restrained his expression and replied seriously, "The buildings in France are basically closely connected, and if the enemy is holding on to the block, then setting up a machine gun on the diagonal line at the intersection can solve the problem." If you are going to attack, the wide streets are not suitable for a rash attack, and you can use artillery fire to smash the walls of all the buildings and pass them through. ”

Napoleon asked curiously, "Won't the building collapse?" ”

"No, we have tested between ourselves that the building is able to cope with the impact of artillery fire."

Baron Haussmann said proudly, "After all, the whole of Paris was redesigned by me." ”

One of the great initiatives of the Second French Empire was the renovation of the old city of Paris.

Napoleon looked at the Paris blueprints, nodded appreciatively, and asked, "So what if I'm going to dig a cavity in the ground?" Will these buildings be able to withstand it? ”

"Partial."

Baron Haussmann frowned, and he pointed to a few of the neighborhoods and said, "The Champs-Élysées, the new districts of the Latin Quarter are basically fine, but places like Avenue Saint-Anthony may not be very reliable." ”

Hearing Baron Osman's reply, Napoleon's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "You mean that the St. Anthony building cannot afford to open the cellar?" ”

"Theoretically, yes, even if an underground passage is dug through, just one bomb will detonate and cause a large area of houses to collapse. After all, those were old buildings from the First Empire era, and they couldn't withstand a violent impact. ”

Baron Osman clenched his fists, then released them instantly, making an explosive gesture.

He explained, "If His Excellency Napoleon was preparing to use underground defences to slow down the Prussian artillery attack, I would advise against these dangerous operations on St. Anthony's Street. Otherwise, it will cause a cascade of domino effects. ”

Napoleon listened to Baron Haussmann's explanation, sighed and said, "The enemies of Paris are not only Prussia, but also the aristocracy that can be seen on the cards, and the social contradictions hidden under the crisis of war, all enemies of the Third Reich." This is a warship that has just laid its keel, put on the skin, and hurriedly launched to fight, and there are still many places that need to be repaired. ”

Social contradictions......

St. Anthony's ......

Explode......

Wait a minute.

Hearing this, Osman's face turned pale for a moment, and he seemed to realize something.

"Your Excellency Napoleon...... Are you going to ...... Blow up St. Anthony at the moment of necessity? But...... Even if the Prussian offensive was stopped, it would have led to the death of many civilians. ”

He did not utter certain words, and thought that he was looking for himself in preparation for the destruction of the Prussian army, but from the words of the other party, it seems that he was referring to something else, referring to the unwitting Blanquists.

Napoleon raised his head and said in a calm tone, "I said that anyone who opposed the Third Reich was an enemy, the Prussian army, the royalists, and even the Parisian mob, do you know what I mean?" It's not just the Franco-Prussian War. ”

His relationship with Blanqui was only temporary, and the eastern district of Paris was the embryonic hotbed of the popular revolution, and the Third Reich would never allow any careerist like Blanqui to incite the people to stand up against his rule. The nine-hour day and allowing the unions to exist were his biggest concessions, and if they still wanted to achieve their political goals by inciting strikes, Napoleon would immediately turn the other cheek and kill his former allies.

Either become a docile lamb or be hanged on a rope.

Baron Osman nodded mechanically, but his mind was blank, and he even felt that he was involved in some terrible conspiracy.

Napoleon coughed, and the Parisian designer recovered from his shock.

It's just that Napoleon's next sentence made his palms soak nervously.

"If you dare to leak a single word of our conversation today, I think Your Excellency Osman knows very well what the consequences will be, and I don't want you to repeat the mistakes of the past."

He sighed and added the last sentence.

"The Seine has buried too many conspiracies and corpses."
