Chapter 423: The French Empire declares war!
When the gentleman opened the first page of the Foreign Affairs Daily, the first thing that caught his eye was the headline of the thunderous people, which read: "Shocked! There is a war in the Near East because of this."
This kind of thunderous title made the gentleman have a trace of interest in reading, and he began to read the content under the thunderous title line by line.
The whole article begins with the Revolution of '48 and analyzes in detail what the Russian Empire did in the Near East from 1848 to 1853, including political, military, economic, and even cultural analyses of the Russian Empire, and finally concludes that there must be a war between the Russian Empire and the French Empire, and that the French Empire helped the Ottoman Empire to fight the Russian Empire, and its naked anti-Russian ism jumped out of the newspapers.
The gentleman who had read the Diplomatic Daily put down the newspaper in his hand and took a long breath, although he himself was not a person who opposed the Russian Empire, and even said that he did not have any feelings about politics itself, but the content of the newspaper really gave him a sense of urgency, and the visceral sense of French national supremacy drove him to subconsciously dislike the Russian Empire.
"Give me another one!" The gentleman looked at the newsboy standing beside him and said again.
"Sir, do you still want that type of newspaper?" The newsboy asked, pointing to the Diplomatic Daily that the gentleman had under his armpit.
The gentleman pondered for a few seconds before bowing slightly.
The newsboy hurriedly pulled out another newspaper from the newspaper, and the name of the newspaper was "Fair".
The gentleman began to read the Fair Newspaper, and the first editorial was also a description of the Russian Empire, in which he criticized the Russian Empire in a more spicy way.
The editorial wrote all about how the Russian Empire oppressed the Ottoman Empire in the Near East, and claimed that if the French Empire turned a blind eye to what the Russian Empire had done, it would be a subversion of all order and justice.
…… The lies of politics and religion are exactly what Russia stands for. It is barbaric in itself, but it wants to imitate our civilization, which makes us suspicious, and its tyranny makes us feel terrible...... Its violent rule may apply to a people born with savagery, not to the mad beast, but certainly not to civilized people...... Nikolai's policy provoked a wave of anger in all the civilized nations of Europe, because his policy was to burn and loot. They are nothing more than a group of bandits on a relatively large scale.
Such statements made the gentleman's heart even more disgusted with the Russian Empire.
When he asked the newsboy again if he had any other newspapers, the newsboy handed him a church newspaper.
The Church also criticized the Russian Empire in the name of God, claiming that once the Russian Empire captured Constantinople, its next targets would be Marseille and Rome.
Then the gentleman again took several newspapers from the hands of the newsboy, the contents of which consisted mostly of editorials denouncing the barbarism of the Russian Empire.
The gentleman, who had read many critical articles in one sitting, was suddenly dominated by an inexplicable sense of mission, and under the herd mentality, he gradually identified with the "anti-Russian content" in the newspaper editorials.
A storm of public opinion against the Russian Empire's invasion of the Danube is growing, even stronger than the one a month earlier.
Over the next few days, the Paris newspaper office was published in Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's orders, the shift from "the destruction of peace in the Near East by the Russian Empire" to "the invasion of the French Empire by the Russian Empire" began.
For a while, the whole of Paris changed from the festive and lively scene of the past, and began to become panicked.
Before the people of Paris could digest the news that "the Russian Empire may invade the French Empire", early the next morning, the people of Paris, who woke up early and went to the streets, found that they did not know when soldiers patrolled the streets of Paris, and people immediately thought of the matter of "the Russian Empire may invade France" from the soldiers on patrol. The soldiers, who had a negative image in the eyes of the people of Paris, talked in an instant, and the air was also filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and a great war was brewing.
Just when the people of Paris were wondering when the Russian Empire would invade the French Empire, the Emperor Jérôme . Bonaparte was putting on his special lev gown and preparing to leave for the Palais Bourbon.
There he will make an important vote, in the presence of all the members of the Legislative Council at the Palais Bourbon.
He was to make a declaration before the legislature, which represented 35 million Frenchmen......
Gu Wei/span "Knock knock!" ”
The crisp and pleasant knock on the door will be Jérôme. Bonaparte pulled back to reality from his thoughts, and Jérôme. Bonaparte hurriedly let Mocal, who was at the door, enter the room.
"Your Majesty!" Mocal to Jérôme. After Bonaparte bowed slightly, he did not speak!
"I see!" Jérôme. After Bonaparte replied lightly, he glanced at himself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and walked slowly in front of Mocal: "Let's go!" It's time to go! ”
Mocal & Jérôme. Bonaparte arrived at the gates of the Palais Bourbon in a carriage escorted by imperial dragoons.
At this time, the legislators in the Bourbon Palace did not know about the arrival of the Emperor, and if it were not for the regular clock-in to work, the vast majority of the parliamentarians present would not want to sit in the boring Bourbon Palace and listen to the unnutritious reports over and over again.
Since the coup d'état of 2 December, the former National Assembly has been dismembered and its powers have been divided into three parts: the Legislative Council, the Senate and the Senate.
The Legislative Council is only responsible for agreeing or opposing an answer, and does not have any right to deliberate and implement the content of the bill, while the right to deliberate is left to the Senate and the power to implement it is given to the Senate.
It can be said that the entire legislative corps has become Jérôme. Bonaparte in the hands of the ruthless voting machine, all their deeds are needed in Jérôme. Bonaparte gave within the framework to be considered effective.
The once unruly National Assembly has now become Jérôme. Bonaparte's royal rubber stamp.
Although the rubber stamp does not have any rights, Jérôme. Bonaparte had to need this rubber stamp to endorse his legitimacy.
Especially in the case of declaring war on the Russian Empire, the legitimacy of the emperor with the blessing of 35 million men was far greater than that of a one-man tyrant who fought alone.
The carriage stopped at the gates of the Palais Bourbon to escort Jérôme. Bonaparte's dragoons also dismounted and lined up in two rows, and the patrol guards who were responsible for guarding the Bourbon Palace and maintaining security inside and outside the Bourbon Palace also gathered around the carriage. Bonaparte pushed open the carriage door, and in the crowd thought that Jérôme. While Bonaparte was about to leave for the Palais Bourbon, he uncharacteristically came to the grenadier company of the Guards, and cordially inquired of each of them about food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and praised them as the invincible spears of the Empire.
The grenadiers in charge of guarding the Palais Bourbon are the masters of 21st-century political showmanship. Bonaparte's opponent, Jérôme. Bonaparte asked all the grenadiers of the company about their old backgrounds, and by the way won the loyalty of the grenadiers.
After the political showmanship, Jérôme. Bonaparte "reluctantly" let go of the grenadiers' hands and bid them farewell.
Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Mocal entered the inner door of the Palais Bourbon with sturdy steps, and entered the conference hall of the Palais Bourbon through the corridor on the right side of the Palais Bourbon.
In full view, Jérôme. Bonaparte slowly walked up to the Imperial podium, and now Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at the puppet councillors in the audience, and from their eyes, Jérôme. Bonaparte saw the bewilderment and surprise at them towards Jérôme. Bonaparte was surprised as to why he came.
"Parliamentarians of the Empire!" Jérôme. Bonaparte took a deep breath and said in a strong and magnetic tone to the MPs in the audience: "Here today...... In this solemn and sacred palace of Bourbon, I ask you to pass as soon as possible a bill that concerns the lives of tens of millions of people in an empire, and that is, ...... Emergency appropriations for the war of the Russian Empire! ”
As soon as these words came out, the entire French Imperial Diet immediately caused a small commotion, and many members of the parliament showed surprised expressions on their faces.
Although the relations between the Russian Empire and the French Empire have been very poor in recent months, and there have even been several cases of missions leaving Paris, they did not expect that the war between the French Empire and the Russian Empire would really come to their side soon.
"At this very moment, the Tsar of the Russian Empire, with his enormous ambitions, is directing the cold Slavic corps under his command to launch an attack on the Near East! It is believed that it will not be long before the Tsar will hold the Near East completely in his hands, and the French Empire will most likely be attacked by the Russian Empire! For the sake of the future of the French Empire, for the sake of thousands of French children, we cannot wait any longer! Compromising will only make things worse! "Jérôme. Bonaparte said word for word to all the parliamentarians present: "So, after careful consideration, I have decided to show my sword to the Russian Empire!" I firmly believe that our deep military background and brave and fearless army will definitely be able to defeat Russia! As long as we can unite as one, we will be able to defeat the enemy!
Here, I wish all the members of Parliament! Whether you are orthodox or Orleans, you and I are first and foremost Frenchmen, and I sincerely hope that you will cast your precious vote for the future of France! Thank you! ”
