Chapter 297: I Establish the Third Republic in the Midst of Mortal Lives

The coup d'état of December 2 lasted three days and culminated in the culmination of the coup d'état in Jérôme. The victory of the counter-revolutionary group led by Bonaparte came to an end. According to preliminary statistics, about 485 people were killed and injured in Paris during the coup d'état, most of whom were university students in Paris.

- A Brief History of the Third Republic

On December 5, 1850, the temperature in Paris was even colder than a few days earlier, and the bitter cold wind blew every inch of Paris in a vain attempt to take away the last bit of Parisian heat.

The dark clouds of black oppression once again shrouded the sky over Paris, and Paris under the dark clouds looked particularly depressing.

Due to the extreme cold weather, there are very few pedestrians on the streets of Paris, only sentry soldiers planted at the entrance of the streets.

These soldiers in winter clothes, armed with Mini rifles, stood trembling and shivering at the crossroads as they walked back and forth, the howling cold wind making each soldier's heart pray that the time for the changing of the guard would come soon, while cursing their commander?

The soldiers stationed in the camps near the Place de la Concorde, the Place de la Bastille, the Palais Bourbon, the Tuileries Palace, and the Élysée Palace wished in their hearts that time would be slower so that they could spend more days in their comfortable tents.

Although on December 4 the crackdown had already been proclaimed in Jerrome . Bonaparte's coup was completely victorious, and all but the parliamentarians who fled Britain had been arrested, but they still could not be taken lightly, and the army would be stationed in the city to maintain the stability of the whole of Paris until the referendum on December 14.

On the evening of 5 December, a carnival feast belonging exclusively to the Bonapartians took place at the Tuileries Palace.

The Tuileries Palace, illuminated by thousands of candles, exudes a hazy sense of sacredness, and the palace, which has been dusted for more than fifty years, is once again in the hands of Bonaparte, where it will be reborn.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the Bonapartist parliamentarians, generals, celebrities and foreign dignitaries met in Jérôme. At Bonaparte's invitation, he descended to this splendid hall, and the living room was particularly dazzling in the light of candlelight mixed with golden light [the rush of candlelight shining on the gold objects placed in the drawing-room].

The hall was crowded with people, people gathered in twos and threes to chat with each other, the generals painted "interesting stories" that happened during the coup d'état, the aging socialites recalled everything that happened during the First Empire, and kept muttering "The Empire is coming back", while the ambassadors of various countries listened to the generals' stories and pondered in what direction the situation in France would turn next.

"That's right! Where is Your Excellency the President? Why is there no trace of His Excellency the President? I don't know who made the first inquiry, and the people who were about to start the banquet realized that Jerome, the protagonist of the banquet. Bonaparte did not appear at the banquet.

It's really weird!

At the banquet the crowd was talking about Jérôme. When Bonaparte was there, Valewski, the head of the secretary's office, appeared in front of everyone to explain.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Excellency the President will be here soon! Please be patient for a moment! Valewski smiled and said to everyone present.

Once again, everyone present was in a heated discussion, and Jérôme, who was the protagonist of the banquet. Bonaparte was at this time, together with the Minister of Public Works Pessini, in the tent of the Place de la Concorde, talking to the soldiers and drinking "inferior" wine.

At the appeal of the commander of the garrison, the soldiers who remained in the tent raised their glasses together: "Long live the Empire, long live the Emperor!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte also raised his glass in response: "Thank you, soldiers, for your blessings!" I am with you! ”

Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte called the sheriff of the precinct in the presence of all the soldiers of the 1st Division, and ordered the sheriff to deliver frozen chicken and wine to every soldier standing guard.

"The army is our strongest shield and sword, and we must give them the fullest guarantee in terms of materials, understand?" Jérôme. Bonaparte gave orders to the sheriff of the precinct in a stern tone.

"Yes! I understand! The precinct sheriff nodded in understanding, and immediately organized the police to deliver frozen chicken, garlic sausages, and wine to the soldiers standing guard.

Soldiers eating frozen chicken and drinking wine are very important for Jérôme. Bonaparte's grudge with the officer was dissipated under the frozen chicken.

In the midst of the farewell of the soldiers and officers, Jérôme. Bonaparte left the Place de la Concorde in a carriage.

"Next stop, Palais Bourbon!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Pesini, who was beside him.

"This ......" Percini hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Your Majesty, the banquet is about to begin!" ”

"Huh?" Jérôme. Bonaparte glanced out the window, and the sky had turned black, and the windlamps hanging on either side of the carriage swayed back and forth in the howling cold wind.

"Anyway," after a moment of thought, Jérôme. Bona decisively chose to go to the Palais Bourbon: "Let them wait a little longer!" ”

"But...... Won't this ......" Pesini cautiously to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"Could it be anything?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Pesini.

"Will they think you're snubbing them?" Pesini cautiously addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"They can understand it as they want! I don't care! "Jérôme. Bonaparte replied to Pesini nonchalantly, and then admonished with a serious expression: "Pesini! You see, our dharma does not come from them, but from those beings who have lived in the land for generations and cannot make a sound. Our foundation is the French army, and these two pillars support us, and if any one of them falls, we will die without a place to bury! ”

As a high-ranking Jérôme. Bonaparte unconsciously cultivated the momentum of the superior, and Pesini couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit and nodded.

The carriage crossed the bridge built on the banks of the Seine to the left bank of the Seine, and soon followed the road to the entrance of the Palais Bourbon.

The soldiers stationed at the Bourbon Palace subconsciously raised their rifles after seeing the carriage, and the repression for several days had made the soldiers subconsciously raise their guns to warn when they saw the strange carriage approaching.

The carriage came to a slow stop in front of the barricade, and Jérôme. Bonaparte and Pesini stepped out of the carriage together.

Soldiers who set up barricades at the sight of Jérôme. When Bonaparte arrived, he hurriedly removed the barricades.

Smiling Jerome. Bonaparte patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "Good work! ”

"It's not hard! It's not hard! "The soldier was flattered to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

Led by soldiers, Jérôme. Bonaparte saw the soldiers in the tent.

At this time, they were also eating frozen chicken and garlic sausages. When Bonaparte arrived, they hurriedly got up and surrounded Jérôme. Bonaparte.

It was only after the arrival of the army officers that the soldiers returned to their seats.

Jérôme. Bonaparte shook hands with the officers again and warmly said their names.

Super memory is Jérôme. An additional ability that Bonaparte gained after crossing over.

The officers were likewise flattered like soldiers.

After a short pleasantries, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Pesini leave the Palais Bourbon,

Jérôme, who inspected the barracks in Paris one by one. Bonaparte returned to the Tuileries Palace at 7:45 a.m.

"The president is here!"

After receiving the news of the president's arrival, Valewski hurried to the living room and shouted at the guests in the living room.

The visitors in the living room set their eyes on the entrance of the living room.

After a while, belatedly Jerome. Bonaparte appeared in everyone's sight.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" Jérôme. Bonaparte bowed to all the guests present.

The banquet officially began, and the servants ushered different types of guests to different restaurants.

Jérôme. The location where Bonaparte was located was the seat of all the "meritorious men" who participated in the coup.

Saint. Minister Arnault and Kuzan. The commander of the Montauban division sat in Jérôme. To the left and right of Bonaparte, then to the left and right of General Magnan, Valewski, de Bonaparte, and then to the left and right. Morney, Conrobel, Perrault, Nomar and others.

The servants poured wine for everyone sitting at the table, Jérôme. Bonaparte raised his glass and said, "Thank you for your help!" I wouldn't have won without you! Now that we have overthrown the National Assembly, the whole of France is no longer holding back our forces! We can transform the whole of Paris the way we want! ”

The generals and ministers in the restaurant raised their glasses to drink this hard-won sweetness.

Some of them have been waiting for almost a decade to wait for this day.

Jérôme. As soon as Bonaparte's words fell, St. Minister Arnault immediately stood up and said, "I propose that we should pay tribute to Jérôme. Cheers to Bonaparte! Let's bless Jérôme. Bonaparte Commander lives a long and healthy life! ”

Everyone present raised their glasses in unison: "Best wishes to Jerome. Bonaparte Commander, live a long and healthy life! ”

"Good! All right! "Jérôme. Bonaparte accepted their blessing with a smile on his face.

Immediately at the dinner table, the task was given to the ministers of various departments.

"De. After the banquet, Mr. Morni, you will draw up a telegram urging the high-ranking officials of the provinces to vote, and if necessary, the army may supervise the voting! Be sure to make sure that the voting is completed by December 20th! You can use harsh wording! ”

"Yes!" Morality. Morney immediately responded.

"St. Minister Arnault, Minister Bife, the two of you have sent a telegram to all of France, and the telegram says that France has suppressed the riots! The president dissolved the National Assembly in order to prevent the spread of redness! "Jérôme. Bonaparte to St. Arnault and Bife said.

Saint. Arnault and Bife nodded in understanding.

The next step was to order Magnan to keep a strict eye on the National Guard, Mopa to reorganize the army, and so on.
