Napoleon was imprisoned and began his career behind bars!

At this time, he was in the cell of the fortress of Nice, standing with his hands in his hands, staring at the coastline of Corsica that was faintly visible in the distance through the gap in the iron fence of the small window half a meter long and wide, with a sad face and a sigh.

The cell he was in (shēn) was actually quite good, definitely a "luxury private room" in the prison, with a table against the wall, a chair, a chuáng, and a commode in the far corner, about 30 square meters in total. This allowed him to keep a "safe distance" from the commode. The most important thing is that there is a small window where Napoleon can feel the sea breeze caressing his cheeks and the sun shining on (shēn).

This is because he is a high-ranking officer, otherwise there are many dark and damp (yīn) in this fortress prison, and if you sleep at night, you might be carried home by rats! At least, the place in front of me is well ventilated and dry overall, but if you sleep in this place in winter, it will be a torture!

The story has to start with Napoleon and Han Xing returning to Paris a few months ago.

After a short stay back in Paris, where he received enough flowers and applause, Napoleon was assigned to construct the coastal defense of Toulon Daunis. Apparently, he had a unique strategic vision for the construction of fortifications and fortresses, and the Parisians gave him this new task.

It was a simple task, and it only took half a month for this energetic young brigadier general to accomplish it! After that, he began to ponder the "additional questions".

Napoleon believed that in order to completely consolidate the line of defense from Toulon to the coast of Nice, it was necessary to solve not only military, but also political problems! To be precise, it is necessary to ensure that the cities in the rear will fully support their actions after the flames of war are ignited, and will not play the trick of "(shēn) in Cao Ying's heart in Han".

So he got the post of "people's commissioner," which was equivalent to a "messenger," and was mainly responsible for inspecting the Nice area, understanding the movements of the cities, and seeing which ones were genuinely supportive of the revolution and which were just indiscriminately shouting slogans. As a result, he discovered that many towns in the Nice region had an inexplicable and unclear "relationship" with Naya.

Nice is part of the disputed border between Naya and France, which used to be Naya's territory and was later ceded to France due to the war.

So Napoleon decided to go to Naya as an envoy to try to force Naya to publicly recognize Nice as "a sacred and inseparable part of France" through diplomatic means, so that those who tried to return Nice to Naya would die.

It's a pity that Your Excellency our people's commissioner, who died first, well, not yet, but it's almost there! A few days after he arrived in Naya, he was arrested by the French on charges of treason!

So here he is! Ironically, just a month ago, our Brigadier General Bonaparte was the commander of the coastal defense of the entire Toulon to Nice area, which was still his jurisdiction, and now he is in prison. The same fortress, the last time I came here to inspect, this time I came here is "accommodation"!

For Napoleon, everything was going so smoothly, and just a few months ago he was "a man with a triumphant wind, and a man (rì) could see all the flowers of Paris!" Coming, he even thought that his life had taken a turn for the better, and he was about to soar! In today's popular words: "Marry Bai Fumei, become CEO, and reach the peak of life!" ”

Of course, for Napoleon, it should be changed to: marry Désirét, become a commander, and enter the core of government power! For this once homeless and dazed Corsican boy, he was overjoyed to be able to get to where he is today! He is more like an ordinary person, a doer, rather than a rare ambition like Chen Sheng, who sighs every day about the lord of "the ambition of the bird's nest and the bird".

Of course, what he didn't know was that this unattainable peak in the eyes of ordinary people was just an inconspicuous beginning in his brilliant life!

Compared to those who have few ambitions, Napoleon is just a mortal who walks step by step, and is down-to-earth. Just like his motto, "People who know where they're going in the first place often don't get far!" ”

Of course, this sentence does not necessarily mean that people who are ambitious, but may just mock those nobles who grew up with a golden spoon, sitting on wealth and land, indulging in pleasures, thinking that they are talented, but in fact they are just frogs at the bottom of a well, full of eating, drinking, and merrymaking, and finally draining their fighting spirit in the gentle country. (Of course, the aristocracy of the French Revolution era has basically lost their heads!) ）

But fate was so unexpected, when our Brigadier General thought that he was about to reach the pinnacle of his life, to escape his destined humble destiny - to survive a lifetime in the army, to finally retire with the rank of captain at most, to live on a French pension in the eyes of the Corsican countrymen, and finally to be buried behind some unknown chapel.

But he was extremely ironic to find that he was tragically killed on the day of his birth (rì), and all his dreams of victory came to naught! Even if 生 (rì) does not become taboo (rì), I'm afraid that in the future, the past life (rì) will leave a shadow (yīn), right?

The cause of the matter (qíng) is because Robespierre has fallen! This "MVP of the Revolution", after cutting off the heads of tens of thousands of people, he killed Danton and Camille de Moulins again. He was already unpopular because of his thirst for killing, but he immediately betrayed his relatives and left, and finally ended up being beheaded!

Who is Dandong? Danton was the founder of the Paris Commune, another leader of the Jacobins (just because of political differences, even his own people were killed indiscriminately, which is enough!). He organized and planned the assault on the Tuileries Palace and was a pioneer of the Revolution! At the beginning, Danton was asked to be the future president of France, but Danton humbly declined, and finally only succumbed to the post of Minister of Justice. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was the soul of the French Revolution and even the leader! His prestige among the people is terrifying!

Dantonnai was a lawyer (shēn) and eloquent, and he had a large number of supporters both in the Convention and among the people, so when he was informed that Robespierre was going to arrest him, he did not flee, but intended to defend himself himself! He made up his mind that relying on his superb eloquence, he could definitely be acquitted!

It's a pity he miscalculated! Robespierre didn't play his cards by the rules at all! He didn't even give Danton a chance to defend himself publicly! Dandong was sent to the guillotine in a daze.

Danton's death greatly stimulated the French public, and it is said that before his death, he asked the executioner to show his head to the people. For the first time, and probably the only time! The crowd did not cheer when they saw their heads, only silence, and even a faint sobbing sound could be heard after the silence. It can be said that Danton used his life and blood to awaken the conscience and people (xìng) in the hearts of the citizens of Paris, and played the finale of the end of the guillotine era!

So Robespierre's reputation was completely stinky! It just stinks! The Parisian people's disgust (rì) towards him grew, and even began to see him as a new tyrant, and as his head hit the ground, his reign of terror came to an end.

After Robespierre's death, Napoleon suffered a tragic scourge of fish in the pond, and now everyone in Paris is in danger, for fear of being classified as Robespierre's sworn friend, but Napoleon once met Robespierre Jr. - Robespierre's younger brother under the introduction of Salicetti, and also had a good relationship with him, who even suggested that Napoleon be the captain of Robespierre's guard, and the position of people's commissioner was obtained with his help.

Guess who betrayed Napoleon?

That's right, Mr. Salichetti! Mr. Salichetti, who was at the center of the political vortex, was imprisoned because of his close relationship with Robespierre Jr., and in order to exonerate himself, he came to "abandon the car and protect the marshal" and sold Napoleon! Especially now that Napoleon (shēn) is abroad, it looks like he is plotting treason, and he is simply a perfect person to take the blame!

After Han Xing learned the news, he immediately rushed from Toulon to Nice, carrying some food to visit Napoleon.

When Han Xing came to Napoleon's cell, he saw that in this dim cell, only the small window let in a glimmer of daylight, and Napoleon moved the blackened, decayed, and musty table and chair to the window, and was writing hard with that little bit of light.

"Napoleon!" Han Xing had no choice but to shout outside the cell with his back to Napoleon, who was struggling to write.

"Hanschel!" Napoleon was still wearing his military uniform, but the gorgeous epaulettes and ribbons on it were gone, he looked back at Han Xing in surprise, and put down the quill in his hand with a smile on his face.

"I've got some presents for you!" Han Xinghuang (dàng) glanced at the handbag in his left hand and said to Napoleon with a smile. Inside were a few sausages, a loaf of bread, and a jar of French mayonnaise, a few pieces of cheese (nǎi), and an onion, all of which were ready-to-eat. After all, with Napoleon's current conditions, it is impossible to make a fire and cook!

"How nice it would be to bring me a ham!" Napoleon took the bag from the gap in the fence, took out a sausage and took a hard bite, then muttered as he chewed.

"It's good to eat some!" Han Xing scolded with a smile, and as he spoke, he mysteriously took out a square box from behind (shēn) and said, "I don't have ham, but I have this!" With that, Han Xing handed the package through the crack in the fence.

Napoleon immediately opened the package, "What is this?" Napoleon pointed to the white and yellow mess inside, and he couldn't see what it was, and the second monk asked puzzledly.

"It's a cake····· Happy 生 (rì), Napoleon! It's a bit late, though..." Han Xing looked at the unrecognizable mixture of cake and (nǎi) oil and explained with an embarrassed expression. "You know, I was in a bit of a hurry when I came! So~ that's it·····" Han Xing looked at Napoleon with a stunned expression, and had to add an explanation.

Napoleon stretched out his right index finger and dipped it in a little (nǎi) oil, stuffed it into his mouth, and then smiled at Han Xing: "It's delicious!" Thank you, this is the best 生 (rì) gift I've ever received at the age of twenty-five! As he spoke, he stepped forward and gave Han Xing a man's hug through the fence. Thankfully, the presence of the railing made it impossible for him to give Han Yu another kiss from an Italian man.

"I'm afraid it's also the only raw (rì) gift you received~" Han Xing patted Napoleon's shoulder to express comfort, and said in his heart.

"Look, it looks like the first fortress I blew up in Toulon! And what could be more suitable for an artillery commander than a cake in the shape of a destroyed fortress? Napoleon teased, pointing to the unrecognizable cake.

After that, the two talked about Napoleon's current situation (qíng), and Napoleon specially told Han Xing to stabilize the officers and soldiers of Toulon after returning and restrain them from doing anything out of the ordinary (qíng). Although Napoleon was somewhat unaware of what was happening, he remained calm, and his desk was filled with letters to the big men he knew, as well as self-defense statements to the Paris Guild.

A week after Han Xing returned to Toulon, events turned out just as Napoleon had expected, and he was acquitted!

In fact, the quality control of Napoleon's treason is nothing and cannot withstand scrutiny at all, so it is not surprising that Napoleon was released. Of course, it is Mr. Salicetti who plays the decisive (xìng) role. After finding that he was out of danger, he finally remembered Napoleon's "little brother", so he wrote a letter to defend Napoleon and fished him out.

In the last line of his defense letter, he wrote, "Plus, the army needs this man!" ”

This is really a divine prophecy! Who would have thought that the French Army would lead to true glory under the leadership of this little Italian man?
