This morning, Mara excitedly knocked on the door of Robespierre's house.

Robespierre's landlord opened the door for him.

After seeing Robespierre, the first thing Marat said was: "Shouldn't you also get a house of your own? You always live in a rented place. You are the speaker of the National Assembly. You have your own house. It makes sense.

"There are too many people in Paris who want to give you a house. In addition, there are so many properties of dead nobles waiting to be distributed. Take whatever you like."

Robespierre waved his hand: "I have never been interested in personal enjoyment, and the landlady's craftsmanship is good, I like it very much."

In this era, the landlord has to take care of the meals. He takes care of two meals a day, and the meal payment is included in the rent.

Mara: "After you have your own house, you can ask a maid to cook for you. Let's not talk about this, Frost has won!"

"I see, that's why there was a lot of noise outside." Robespierre raised his eyebrows, "Very well, now those in Paris who place their hopes on foreign powers should restrain themselves."

Mara: "Are you still talking about this? We should take advantage of the power of the victory to further clean up the traitors in Paris! We must strike hard at those moths!"

Robespierre had a hesitant expression.

In fact, Robespierre was considered a moderate among the Jacobins. It turned out that in history, after Marat was assassinated, he felt a real threat and decided to use terror to clean up all enemies.

In the end, he became the so-called "monster of terror".

At this time, Marat was not dead yet, and Robespierre was naturally still the moderate.

The moderate Robespierre looked at Mara, sorted out his words, and then said: "Frost won, and those speculators will temporarily restrain their small thoughts. They have always been like this. At this time, if Continuing to take radical actions may instead drive them to the road of opposing the republic..."

Marat interrupted Robespierre: "Maximilian! As long as they have two hearts, they will always rebel, either today or tomorrow! We have to take advantage of the fact that everyone in Paris supports us now. , Clean up these bastards thoroughly! Don't waste Frost's victory!"

Robespierre: "I mean, anyway, we have Frost as the biggest backer, and his military victory would have silenced everyone, so we don't have to..."

"Absolutely necessary! Before Frost comes back, we're tired of seeing the ghosts and monsters in Paris. These bastards are all the enemies of the people of Paris. It's time to wipe them all out! I'll go back and write a This article will be published in tomorrow's Friend of the People newspaper, calling on everyone to take advantage of Frost's victory and report those enemies of the people!"

Robespierre smacked his lips: "Well, if you want to do this, I really don't have much reason to stop you. Cleaning up some enemies is a good thing after all."

Mara: "That's right! Of course, I understand your concern. You are afraid that many people who are not prepared to oppose us will be forced to oppose us. Don't worry. If these people object, then we will send them away together. Go to the guillotine! We are worried that the cleaning of potential enemies is not thorough enough!
"Then we have reached an agreement on this matter?"

Robespierre nodded: "Yes, we have reached an agreement. Are you going to Dandong next?"

"Dandon and Saint-Just share the same opinion as me, for sure." Mara excitedly turned to the door, "Then I won't disturb your breakfast time, I still have to write an article!"

Robespierre: "Okay, see you later."

After Mara left, Robespierre shook his head: "This Mara is like a gust of wind."

Among the four giants of the Jacobin Club, Marat lived the most turbulent life. He kept writing articles in the People's Friend with great energy, attacking all those who opposed the National Assembly.

Moreover, he has to attend the National Assembly as an observer every day, and he doesn't know where he gets so much energy.

Robespierre continued to eat the breakfast interrupted by Marat, and muttered while eating: "Frost won again. Although I thought he would win, I didn't expect it to come so soon."

The Jacobins, including Robespierre, actually knew that as Frost's reputation grew, a de facto military dictatorship would definitely be formed in France.

When the Girondins were still there, they used this to attack the Jacobins many times.

Now that the Jacobins are in power, Frost, as the largest of the four Jacobins, can't stop him from establishing a de facto military dictatorship.

Robespierre was very contradictory at this time. As a faithful believer in the Enlightenment, he did not support such a military dictatorship. He believed even more in the concept of separation of powers, freedom and equality. contradictory.

But as a close friend of Frost, Robespierre was sincerely happy for his friend's brilliant achievements.

Just like that, "The Incorruptible" ate his breakfast in a complicated mood, thinking about what to do.

**
Over the next few days the Jacobins struck across the board.

With Frost's victory, the Jacobins sent many ruthless characters who could not be pried to the guillotine.

The People's Friend newspaper in Maratha is exposing all kinds of enemies of the people every day and clamoring for a complete reckoning.

For a while, everyone in Paris was in danger, because according to the standards given by the Friends of the People, most of the top figures in Paris might be liquidated.

But because Frost won the battle outside, and now Paris has gathered hundreds of thousands of National Guards waiting to be incorporated, so no one dares to fight with the Jacobins.

Those National Self-Defense Forces waiting to be incorporated worship Frost as an idol. If you dare to say a bad word about Your Excellency the General, just wait to be picked up on the bayonet and paraded through the streets by the big soldiers.

In fact, someone has been guillotined for "defying General Frost".

For example, a certain little nobleman avoided countless disasters after the Great Revolution by relying on the wind and the rudder, but this time he could not escape because someone reported that he once scolded Frost with the nobleman who was killed by Frost in a duel. Stooges.

The jury in the trial court unanimously believed that this was disrespect to the revolutionary hero, and all the way the green light sent the little nobleman to the guillotine.

These days, Paris seems to have fallen into madness. Some people even joked that there was more blood on the guillotine in Paris than on the front lines.

Frost knew nothing about this. After he commanded the troops to win the Battle of the Marne, he found that his troops had suffered very little loss, so he started the next battle without stopping.

A new vocabulary, passed back to the city of Paris from Frost's headquarters, is called "People's War".

Marat then interpreted the term as "waging a civil war against traitors" as evidence that General Frost supported the expansion of the purge.

Time passed day by day, and it finally came to the moment when the Friend of the People, Mara, called the curtain call.
