Chapter 284 12.2 Coup D'état Prologue (1)
On the evening of November 22, the general offensive of the Prussian army on the Berlin area began.
Nearly 80,000 Prussian soldiers and militias attacked in the night, and the National Guard, which was responsible for defending the barricades of the strongholds, was brutally slaughtered at the first time.
The barricades were smashed by artillery, and numb Prussian soldiers attacked the broken barricades, slaughtering like inhuman machines under the orders of Prussian officers, despite the pleas of the Berlin National Guard.
The stab pierced the body of the National Guard, scarlet blood splattered on the Prussian soldier's face, and when the soldier's spear was drawn, there was still some gray-green foul-smelling thing left on the tip of the gun, which was roughly the same as feces.
The National Guard fell to the ground, wailing in pain, before being thrust into his body again with a bayonet.
Decades later, the ghosts seem to have risen in advance, possessing the Prussian soldiers, slaughtering Berliners in a frenzy on the land of Berlin.
If the Prussian soldiers represented only the Wehrmacht, then the militia was undoubtedly comparable to the SS
This group of Junker landlords from the Prussian countryside squandered their evil deeds on Berlin soil, and under the dual opposition between urban and rural areas, the Junkers vented their dissatisfaction with the city without psychological burden.
Many landlords of the militia even broke into other people's homes on their own initiative, squandering their evil deeds in front of the male owners of the households.
The whole of Berlin, with the connivance of the Count of Brandenburg and the Prince Regent Wilhelm, has been turned into a purgatory on earth, and the Regent Wilhelm wants to avenge his expulsion from Berlin by the Berlin people two years ago.
The evil deeds lasted for almost 3 days, and the city was left in tears in the sky over Berlin.
A continuous drizzle washed over the whole of Berlin, and the blood and brains flowed along the path of the rain, and the stench that permeated the whole city seemed to fade under the rain.
The city is bleeding and screaming.
Under the orders of the Count of Brandenburg, the Prussian soldiers began to methodically clear the streets, burying their crimes in the dirt and carrying out their work as if nothing had happened under the hateful gaze of the citizens of Berlin.
The rain can blow away all traces of the massacre, the soil can bury all the crimes they have committed, but they cannot erase the pain of Berlin, and this hatred is engraved in the blood of the people of Berlin.
When Otto. Feng. When Bismarck ordered the militia soldiers to clean up the corpses in the streets, he saw a gaze in the corner, and that hateful gaze stung Otto deeply. Feng. Bismarck's iron will.
Bismarck could not help but smile bitterly, knowing that after this battle, the rift between the classes of the Kingdom of Prussia would inevitably widen.
If the Hohenzollerns don't have the majority of support in their home country, how can they get the support of others?
[PS: According to later statistics, it took only three days for the Prussian soldiers and militias to massacre a population similar to their army, equivalent to one-fifth of Berlin at that time. 】
On 26 November, the massacre in Berlin reached St. Petersburg, Olmuts, Paris and London.
The Russian emperor, who received the news, sent a "blessing" for the massacre in Berlin, and in his opinion the actions of Prussia already represented that they had returned to the right track, that the purpose of Nicholas I had been achieved, and that the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia would be back on track.
Although Tsar Nicholas I regretted in his heart that the Russian Empire could not keep its secret treaty with the Austrian Empire, he was undoubtedly even happier that the Kingdom of Prussia was able to "submit" to the Russian Empire.
In the afternoon of the same day, Nicholas I summoned the Foreign Minister Karl Nieschelrodi to his ground and said: "Niechelrodi, please tell Prince Wilhelm, Prince Regent of Prussia, and Emperor Franz of Austria. Joseph, the war between Prussia and Austria is over! If any country ever wanted to deliberately provoke a war, it would be the number one enemy of the Russian Empire! ”
The proclamation of Nicholas I was undoubtedly in the face of the Kingdom of Prussia, from the firm tone of the Tsar Nicholas I. Neschel Rodie knew that he could only obey the will of the Tsar.
In the court of the Russian Empire, anyone who did not obey the tsar had long since disappeared from the court.
"Yes!" Cal. Nischel Robidian immediately responded.
Tsar Nicholas I then invited the rulers of the Kingdom of Prussia and the Austrian Empire to a meeting in Warsaw in a private name.
Since Nicholas I's message was sent by telegram, the King of Prussia received a telegram from Nicholas I at about the same time as the Austrian Emperor.
Emperor Franz of Austria. Joseph read the contents of the telegram to Felix the next moment he received it. Schwarzenberg listened.
"Your Majesty, this is a betrayal! Tsar Nicholas I betrayed us! "Felix. Schwarzenberg said angrily.
"Prime Minister, we can't disobey Nicholas I, can we?" Compared to Felix. Schwarzenberg's exasperation, Franz. Joseph looked particularly shocked.
In his heart, there was also some disapproval of Felix. Schwarzenberg's excessive punishment of the Kingdom of Prussia was only due to his own mother. Joseph had to listen to Felix. Schwarzenberg's opinion.
After a brief period of irritation, Felix. Schwarzenberg calmed down again, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips to Franz. Joseph said: "Your Majesty, I have a hunch that this may be our last chance to incorporate Germany into Austria!" ”
Franz. Joseph for Felix. Schwarzenberg's hunch was unimpressed, and after this war, Franz. Joseph was also a little more arrogant, and he did not think that the future Kingdom of Prussia would defeat the Austrian Empire.
"Mr. Prime Minister, we still have a lot of opportunities!" Franz. Joseph comforts Felix. Schwarzenberg said: "For now, we must listen to the advice of Tsar Nicholas I!" ”
Felix. Schwarzenberg nodded in agreement with Franz. Joseph's opinion, now without the support of France and Russia, could not continue the Austrian Empire, otherwise Prussia would be Austria tomorrow.
On November 28, the Kingdom of Prussia and the Austrian Empire sent private telegrams to the Russian Emperor Nicholas I, in which they agreed to Nicholas I's proposal.
At the same time, news of the massacre in the Kingdom of Prussia reached the French Republic, which also had a subtle chemical reaction.
The horror of the Berlin Massacre reminded the people of Paris of the massacre that took place in Paris two years earlier, and when the memories were once again bloodily opened, the people's hatred of the Legislative Assembly became more and more obvious.
In Jérôme. Under the guidance of Bonaparte and other Bonapartist factions, Paris launched a campaign called "Severe Punishment for the June Massacre of Parliamentarians", and many Republican parliamentarians were all on the list.
Lamartine and others, who were idle at home, were also listed by "people with good intentions", and the only one in the entire Legislative Assembly who did not leave a stain on this incident was the Bonapartist faction.
In the massacre that shocked France, the Bonapartist faction acted as a melon-eating crowd.
In the midst of this massive demonstration, the impulsive masses smashed the republican press, and the republican editors were beaten.
When the editors tried to sue the police, the police excused themselves on various grounds, and finally simply stopped trying to get the republican editors.
A section of Republican parliamentarians approached Jérôme. Bonaparte, they want Jérôme. Bonaparte was able to organize an outrage of the workers.
"Gentlemen, this is a parade of democracy!" Jérôme. Bonaparte responded to the Republican parliamentarians.
"Your Excellency! If you are not willing to stop it, then we will ...... after the next parliament opens "Republican parliamentarians threaten to stop the protests. Bonaparte again voted against the abolition of the "constitution in which the president cannot be re-elected".
It has to be said that Tocqueville's efficiency is indeed relatively high, and some Republican congressmen who have been told by Tocqueville will vote in favor of it next time.
However, they did not know Jérôme. Bonaparte was not prepared to follow any legal channels for a long time.
It won't be long before he will be kicking over the damned parliament and completing his own dictatorship.
"Listen to it!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied lightly.
In Jérôme. The parliamentarians who ran into a wall here in Bonaparte had no choice but to leave in disgrace.
After the departure of the Republican parliamentarians, Jérôme. Bonaparte called in his newly appointed police chief, Maupa.
"Director Mopa, I don't need to tell you what to do!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Mopa.
Mopa immediately understood, and left the Élysée Palace.
On November 28, the devastated Republican newspaper was dealt another blow.
The police completely shut down the newspapers of the Republicans, the former parties of the Order, and some of the Montacraments in the name of non-compliant newspapers, and at this time the whole of France was completely eliminated except for the newspapers that praised the government.
Mopa's actions were impeached in the Legislative Assembly, which demanded that Mopa resign immediately.
To take revenge on Jérôme. Bonaparte, the constitutional amendment proposed by Tocqueville once again failed by less than three-quarters.
On 30 November, Finance Minister Achill Ahir. Fuld for Jérôme. Bonaparte brought good news.
With the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors of the Banque de France, the Banque de France injected 30 million yuan into Société Géribérie Paribas to revitalize French agriculture.
The 30 million francs were ostensibly for the revitalization of agriculture, but in fact it was Jérôme. Military spending during the Bonapartist coup.
"Good! The time of the coup d'état is set for the early hours of the day! ”
