For the commander of the Ninth Army, Brigadier General Leboeuf's threat worked well.

No one could withstand the attack of the regular army of Paris, especially if it was unsuspected.

The commander of the Ninth Legion was keenly aware of the state of the soldiers around him, and the National Guard soldiers who followed him trembled uncontrollably when they saw the regular troops waiting outside the barricades.

The fighting power of this group of propertied people in the honeypot is no match for the regular army units in front of them. Not to mention pitting them against the regular army, even if they were to fight a dozen unarmed poor ghosts, they would be able to make one joke after another.

With such a level of fighting, how can they be expected to work for their lives, I am afraid that as soon as the guns on the side of the regular army go out, the group of shrimp soldiers and crabs under their hands will flee in a hurry.

The Commander of the Ninth Army couldn't help but resent the National Assembly, and if they hadn't forced the Ninth Army to guard the Bourbon Palace, he would not have confronted the president head-on.

It was already 2:20 a.m., and there were only a few stars twinkling in the dark sky, under which the National Guard and the regular army bordered by the barricades of the Palais des Bourbons were fiercely confronted, and the windmills hanging from the street pavilions swayed back and forth.

"General, have you thought about it?" Brigadier General Leboeuf's words revealed a slight impatience: "I have been given the task of accepting the Palais Bourbon at all costs!" If you don't want to leave, we're going to send you away at gunpoint! ”

With the order of Brigadier General Leboeuf, all the soldiers of the regular army installed the mercury, dragging the barrel of the gun with their left hand and pressing the trigger with their right hand.

"General! You don't stand a chance of winning! Brigadier General Leboeuf said confidently.

There was a large difference in weapons between the regular army, which was armed with Mini rifles, and the National Guard, which was armed with only a small number of MTL1842 smoothbore guns.

Once the two sides go to war, it will be an obvious massacre.

"Will ...... General, what else should we do now? The soldier standing next to him asked in a trembling voice.

"Are you willing to die for the National Assembly?" The commander of the Ninth Army asked the National Guard soldiers present in a flat voice.

With the exception of a small number of trembling "willing", the vast majority of the National Guard soldiers were speechless.

"Now you know how I choose!" The Commander of the Ninth Army replied to the soldier who had just asked him.

How dare the soldiers of the National Guard stop talking, and the entire National Guard does not want to go head-to-head with the regular army.

If the National Guard soldiers now have an organization similar to Iron Ambition 4 on their heads, then it is clear that the organization on the part of the National Guard has become 0.

In the minds of the vast majority of National Guard soldiers, the so-called military coup was nothing more than a contest of power between the president and the National Assembly.

That being the case, why should they fight against the president for the National Assembly?

"Remove the barricades!" With the military heart unavailable, the commander of the Ninth Legion made the right choice, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered the soldiers to remove the barricades.

After hearing the order from the commander of the regiment to remove the barricades, the National Guard soldiers finally moved the large stones that had accumulated in their hearts.

Several National Guards removed the barricades that stood in front of the regular troops, and Leboeuf smiled.

To be sure, Leboeuf really didn't want to fight in Paris.

It is obviously better to be able to take the palace of Bourbon without blood.

Leboeuf waved his hand as the regular soldiers rushed in.

The soldiers of the National Guard were disarmed directly by the regular soldiers, and many of the soldiers of the National Guard who had fallen asleep were also disarmed after being woken up by the regular soldiers.

The seizure of the weapons of the National Guard ended at 3 a.m., with nearly 3,000 rifles of all kinds piled up in the corners.

More than 3,000 unarmed National Guard soldiers were also awakened by regular soldiers.

"I'm going to be court-martialed, right?" The commander of the Ninth Army looked at the group of National Guard soldiers in front of him, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

He was already assigned to the Ninth Army in disguise, and now he is facing the situation of a military court, and in his position, how many people can really do what they want to do freely!

"No, it won't!" Brigadier General Leboeuf comforted the commander of the Ninth Army Corps: "The President knows your difficulties, so he will not embarrass you!" You'll still be able to enjoy double the annuity! ”

The commander of the Ninth Legion, of course, understood what Leboeuf meant, and the president was asking him to retire.

"It's good to retire! Retirement is a lot less to worry about! The commander of the Ninth Army endured the sadness in his heart and said the words "open-minded".

Leboeuf talked with the commander of the Ninth Army until the regular army soldiers took full control of the surroundings of the Bourbon Palace, Leboeuf waved two soldiers, and then turned to the commander of the Ninth Army and said: "General, we are now in a critical period, can you please leave the army for a while!" ”

Valley/span "I got it!" The commander of the Ninth Legion smiled and commented on Leboeuf's behavior: "It seems that you have a plan!" I wish you success in advance! ”

At the time of parting, the commander of the legion sighed, and he raised his head again to look at the towering Bourbon Palace: "It seems that it will not be long before we will be prostrate again at the feet of one person and shout "Long live the emperor"! ”

"I don't dare to comment on this!" Brigadier General Leboeuf responded to the corps commander and added: "If the whole French people agree, I think the president will follow the opinion of the whole people!" ”

"Come on! The entire French population? The corners of the Legion Commander's mouth showed a touch of disdain, "They will only blindly follow!" Bourbon or Orleans! ”

Escorted by soldiers, the commander of the Ninth Legion disappeared into the night.

The Ninth Army, which had lost its backbone, moved towards the Saint-Denis region under the leadership of Brigadier General Leboeuf's newly appointed officer, and the more than 3,000 unarmed National Guards were completely unable to pose any threat to them.

Leboeuf looked at the tall and majestic building in front of him with satisfaction, and then turned to the staff officer beside him and said, "Please tell Major General Conrobert that our department has fully accepted the Bourbon Palace." No one resisted on the way! ”

"Yes!" The staff officer hurriedly responded to Leboeuf.

……

This is not the only case at the Palais Bourbon, where many of the soldiers of the National Guard, who had lost their legions, were disarmed at the compulsion of the army and then led by an officer temporarily assigned to them.

The "revolutionary" National Guard in Paris gave up all resistance around 3:20 a.m.

Groups of regular army soldiers stood in important streets and intersections, carrying torches and new Mini rifles on their backs, and some of the lighter Parisians who had slept were awakened by the movement coming from the streets and got up to see the fire outside their windows.

Curious, the citizens opened the doors and windows and stuck their heads out, and when they saw the patrolling soldiers, they hurriedly retracted their heads.

That's when they realized that Paris was probably undergoing a seismic change.

But what does this have to do with them!

3:30 a.m.

Staying in the bunker of the Elysée Palace, Jérôme waited anxiously for news from the Ministry of War. Bonaparte finally received the good news from the 1st Division in Paris, which now had full control of the government structures, including the Palais Bourbon.

"Good!" Jérôme. Bonaparte clenched his fists and said excitedly.

The control of the Palais Bourbon and the Supreme Court is equivalent to controlling the legislative and interpretative power of the whole of France, and this coup is equivalent to more than half of the completion.

Now it is only necessary to arrest the opposition in Paris. Bonaparte would be able to go to the Palais Bourbon and solemnly proclaim a new chapter in the Republic.

Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately sent Valewski to Montauban to give orders for the arrest of the opposition.

[The opposition here is not only the "social democrats", but also the opposition around Jérôme. The majority of the party of order around Bonaparte, all non-Bonapartist people were in Jérôme. Bonaparte and others were among the ranks of arrests. 】

Just before Valevsky was about to leave for the headquarters of the 1st Division, Jérôme. Bonaparte specially called Valewski to a room alone and said earnestly: "Cousin, can you do something for me?" ”

Valevsky looked at Jérôme suspiciously. Bonaparte, he seems to have some confusion about Jérôme. Bonaparte meaning.

"That's right!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Valewski: "I hope you will be able to arrest Thiers with the army, and then escort Thiers on the way!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte made a gesture of raising and dropping his sword, and his intention is self-evident.

Valewski looked at Jérôme in amazement. Bonaparte, who tried to exhort Jérôme. Bonaparte said: "Your Excellency, the hasty killing of Thiers could bring turmoil to our regime!" ”

"I know!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded, of course he understood the consequences of killing Thiers now, but if he didn't take this opportunity to kill him, it would be even more difficult to kill him in the future, "Killing Thiers may bring a certain amount of turmoil to the regime!" If he is allowed to survive, sooner or later the regime we have worked so hard to build will be destroyed in his hands! Thiers is not a man who is willing to fail, and in the face of us now, he will lurk patiently like a poisonous snake. As long as we reveal a hint of weakness cheaply, he will not hesitate to give us a bite! This damned Machivillaist! ”

There is no one better than Jérôme. Bonaparte was more aware of Thiers' destructive power, and there were some benefits for them to keep him, but in the long run, the harm of Thiers far outweighed the political benefits he bringed.

"I see!" Valewski heard Jérôme. Bonaparte's determination to kill Thiers as quickly as possible, he did not dissuade Jérôme. Bonaparte.
