Chapter 159: Take three points

Since there was no longer any dispute over the reparations and the territorial issue, the two sides agreed to sign a formal peace treaty two days later, on December 20.

In addition to the reparations of 400 million francs, Prussia demanded the transfer of most of the batteries, artillery and ammunition in Paris.

According to themselves, this was to prevent the people of Paris from violently overthrowing the hard-won peace.

Although Nasan was reluctant, he could only pinch his nose and admit it at this point, at least Prussia did not offer to pass through the Arc de Triomphe.

But by coincidence, the hot air balloon from southern France also flew back to Paris at this time.

It has now been 9 days since the launch of the hot air balloon in Paris.

Originally, people did not hold out much hope, thinking that the Prussian front might be deeper than they thought, or that there was an error in the calculation of the range of the hot air balloon.

Preparations are underway to release a second batch.

But I didn't expect that it was just that the local government was relatively inefficient.

Paris was in a state of jubilation, but Nassan's heart was at war between heaven and man.

Judging by the reply, the situation in France was not as bad as Prussia propagated, at least there was no problem in holding the front in the slightest.

And Spain kept their promise and sent troops into France.

Nanfa also replied that they would organize a major counteroffensive in the near future, with the goal of recovering Orleans.

Looking at this trend...... Perhaps, maybe the royal family can survive until the day of liberation?

With this little hope, Nasan tentatively offered Prussia a postponement of the signing, citing the need for time to deal with opponents in the city.

But Prussia was not stupid either, hot air balloons flew brightly over their heads, and although they could not do anything, they were not blind.

At the moment, he gave a serious warning to Nasan's backsliding, and threatened that it would not be the current condition to come back next time.

In addition to this, Prussia said that if time did not reach peace, they would spread the news of secret negotiations.

Such an act of blatant betrayal is bound to cause an even greater crisis of public opinion.

No one was more entangled at this time than Nasan, on whom the fate of the whole of Bonaparte, the whole of France, and even the whole of Europe depended.

Both peace talks and non-peace talks have vitality and their own risks.

Just as Nasan was wavering, another piece of news interrupted his train of thought.

"What? This is a bill that will be reviewed soon!? Are they crazy? ”

Nasan was furious.

"Yes... Gambida argues that to ensure the safety of France's heart, it must be uncompromising, regardless of sacrifice. Eugenie smiled wryly.

No wonder they behaved like this, the severity of the motion No. 47 submitted by Gan Bida is really unprecedented.

The bill stipulated that all citizens of Paris were obliged to fight Prussia in an emergency, and that no regular army or militia should be allowed to surrender, and that even if they were surrounded, they must fight to the end.

At the same time, it also deprived the emperor of the power to negotiate peace alone.

In order to make peace with Prussia, the peace treaty had to be submitted to the Parliament, which would then be authorized to negotiate with the other side.

And all possible acts of treason must be thoroughly reviewed and reckoned.

Let's not talk about the former, the latter is aimed at the royal family at first glance.

"A few days ago, did you stop the army from breaking through, and the action was too obvious to be noticed......" Nasan thought silently.

His move was indeed a bit conspicuous, and the royal family should be most anxious about the siege of Paris, but Nasan did the opposite, interfering in military operations one after another.

Gambi is definitely not the only one who is suspicious, but he is the most courageous and the least afraid to fight against the emperor.

"There's no way to get through, right? This is contempt for human rights...... "Nasan felt his voice tremble a little when he spoke.

Eugenie couldn't bear to look at her husband like this, and the greater the predicament, the closer their relationship was to when they were newly married.

But she had to tell the truth: "It is very likely that it will be passed, and most people do not have the idea of making peace with Prussia." They believed that this bill would ensure victory in the war. ”

From the reply of the southern French, the belligerent mood in Paris was completely ignited, and everyone from top to bottom wanted to play with Prussia.

It was in this atmosphere, combined with the powerful working class of Paris, that this strange bill could be passed, and until it was replaced, it would not even be eligible to be sent to the chamber.

The parliamentarians were happy to obey it, and since the front-line soldiers had no opinion, what did they have to object to?

It is just the opportunity to take this opportunity to shape himself into a strong anti-war faction.

Even several of the princes of Bonaparte in the Senate were in favor of this - they did not yet know that the patriarch had committed treason.

All in all, with the exception of a part of the bourgeoisie and the royal family, the vast majority of people have no idea of surrendering.

The general opinion is that as long as the south is functioning properly, there is no reason for Paris to lose.

At this time, Paris had 2,627 artillery pieces and 320,000 defenders; Prussia on the opposite side had only 654 artillery pieces and 140,000 troops.

In addition to this, Paris has granite walls up to 3 meters thick and a whole system of deep walls.

Although the quality of the soldiers was poor, it was impossible for Prussia to conquer Paris by force.

……

"Then either we refuse to negotiate peace." When Nasanzheng was about to say this, Eugénie suddenly added: "Gambida also emphasized that even previous acts of treason must be tried. ”

Met Nasan's shocked gaze, she said, "The legislators are very welcome, because this is an administrative intervention in the military, which can expand their power.

Bill 47 is still under review, but the parliament has separately proposed that Marshal Leboeuf be tried first to investigate his previous series of failures at the Franco-Prussian border and the reasons for the delay in launching a breakout. ”

"How dare they?" Na Sanhao's emotions that had not been stabilized were out of control again: "Isn't there a reaction from the army?" This is to interfere with specific military operations! The council's hand has crossed the line! ”

Eugénie shook her head: "The officers are also dissatisfied with Marshal Leboeuf, and they have not taken action for the time being.

But he shouldn't have to go to jail, and if he can't prove his innocence, the most he can do is be discharged from the army. ”

“……”

Nasan felt powerless in his heart, and he didn't care about the life or death of Marshal Leboeuf.

But Leboeuf's series of orders at the front, as well as the recent move to stop the breakout, were either with his participation or simply from him.

Many people know these things.

After doing something to Leboeuf, what's next? Did you just do it to him?

Gambida has always wanted to abolish the imperial system, and this operation is obviously an idea to kill two birds with one stone.

He wanted to take advantage of the popular hatred of Prussia to bring the emperor to his down.

I have to admit that if things are allowed to develop like this, it is really possible for him to achieve it.

After spending a few hours to understand the specific matters, Nasan found that the matter was basically the same as what Eugenie said, and it was indeed the case.

"We can only make peace." Nasan thought for a while, and said with hatred: "Gambida, you forced me." ”

……

On December 20, France and Prussia signed a peace treaty without warning, while Bill 47 had not yet passed, and the whole country was shocked.
