The first update,In the manuscript,July 1st on the shelf,After the shelves, a day of 10,000 word updates began.,There was a bug in the previous chapter.,It's being modified.,The update is late.。
By the time Napoleon returned to the office, the already fierce quarrel had calmed down. Looking around at the financial giants, there were many red-eared faces after being emotional, and when they saw Napoleon coming in from outside the door, they finally stopped arguing, and with James as the representative, they waved a white flag to him and surrendered, willing to transfer the rights of the Bank of France to the other party.
In the first war with the old foxes, he ended in victory, but all this was temporary, capitalism from the era of free trade to the era of monopoly is inevitable, rather than the formation of corrupt and incompetent usurious imperialism, it is better to lead France to the road of revenge.
Eventually, the capitalists reached a paper agreement with Napoleon to nationalize the Banque de France, and they no longer controlled the financial lifeline of the French government, but Napoleon had to ensure that their private property was not encroached upon.
State monopoly capitalism will be the key to France's transition from a free-trade economy to the service of the state for the future war in Europe, and Keynes, the greatest intellectual revolutionary pioneer of the twentieth century, has not yet been born, and some people are already preparing to build a different capitalist empire.
Some of those present have already smelled a shift in the political winds, and the turmoil at the Banque de France means that the financial conglomerates are no longer able to force the Provisional Government to submit to the economic decisions of the Banque de France through fiscal pressure, as they were in the past, and that their plundering during the Second Empire is a thing of the past.
Moreover, Napoleon showed that he would rather go out than take back the bank, and if he died unexpectedly, none of the family members present could escape.
In front of the Banque de France, the triumphant Napoleon contrasted sharply with the dejected capitalists.
Napoleon had no worries, the Bank of France provided enough loans to support a 600,000-strong Army Group South, and Guerome had put a rope around Napoleon's neck, but now the hinges of the restraints had been broken, and no one could stop the advance of the Imperial chariots.
He could finally give it a go.
On his return to the Tuileries, the first thing Napoleon did was to send a telegram to Tours to inform him that Paris had settled the funding problem, and to order Gampeda to launch a full-scale conscription campaign in the southern provinces.
"The relief of the siege of Paris is the first element, and now I need new units of Army Group South to march on Paris, and this final battle will determine the life and death of the Third Reich in Paris. If we lose the battle to defend it, France will lose everything. If we win, the Prussian army will not be able to control the whole of northern France, and if we lose, the French family will lose completely. ”
After the last word of the telegram was struck, Napoleon took a deep breath, as if he had returned to the battle of fifty-five years ago, a battle that would determine the future fate of France, and he lost in a mess.
Another 600,000 troops, again faced with the same choice, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Prussian troops, the first battle of the return was lost, he would lie back in the coffin, for the sake of insurance, this time it was estimated that Bismarck would tie his coffin in chains and throw it into the deep sea of the Atlantic Ocean to feed the fish.
"Waterloo is back in Paris, and it's time to decide the fate of France."
He sighed softly and said slowly, "I won't lose again this time." ”
Gan Bida also organized Army Group South in Tours, but ran into financial problems. The Banque de France was willing to finance the defenders of Paris, but for Army Group South, military spending was postponed again and again. Although local banks such as the local banks were also willing to provide loans to Gambida, there was still a huge gap, and after the completion of the list, the military salary had reached the point of being stretched, and he had to try his best to raise funds to ensure the operation of the army.
Just when he was still at a loss, the telegram sent from Paris was like nectar from a long drought, solving the biggest problem that had plagued his mind, and when he held the telegram, Gan Bida clenched his fists excitedly, not expecting that the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time finally came.
Ignoring the guards' obstructions, he rushed into Willenis's office, placed the telegram from Paris on General Villenis's table, and said word for word, "Army Group South can begin to advance towards Paris, the Bank of France is willing to pay all the costs of the war, and from now on, if there are still those who refuse not to cooperate under the pretext of financial problems, all that awaits them is a military tribunal." And the French Foreign Legion guys also gave me some cooperation, and the ruler there was not as talkative as I was, and dared to disobey any orders, and according to the military orders issued before, he dared to execute everyone one by one. ”
He threw down the order and left, leaving General Villenis, dazed, standing where he was. This telegram was indeed sent from Paris, and as a false order from Paris, the French Foreign Legion had to march to Paris with the Army Group South. Originally, Villenis did not want to get into this troubled water, and the French Foreign Legion had been criticized for fighting on its own soil, even if it was won or lost, but those in power were suspicious.
A group of soldiers with complex backgrounds, the Corps is their only home.
And in this battle, they have gone and never returned.
"Gauller, inform everyone to prepare for Paris, we will be the vanguard of this war, which will be more tragic than Mexico and Russia, because our opponent is Prussia, and the other side is still in the upper hand. Please be prepared, everyone. ”
General Villenis did not hesitate, for he had the worst-case scenario in mind.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, the Foreign Legion is just cannon fodder for a group of non-French people, but this group of cannon fodder participates in all the colonies' operational missions.
The soldier named Charles Gaulle took the order, and although he knew that it was impossible to change the mission from Paris, he couldn't help but ask more.
"It's going to be a terrible battle, and a lot of brothers and sisters will die. Is it worth our sacrifice for a provisional government that does not know if there is a tomorrow? ”
General Villenis shook his head and said, "Not for the Provisional Government, this time for our homeland, France." ”
Just like the solemn expression he had when he received the body of Captain Danjou at the Battle of Cameron.
In the end, he only said one word.
"We have to tell Paris that the Foreign Legion will be on the front line for the sake of the Fatherland! Although he is still glorious in death, he will never retreat. ”
