King's Landing in France

Chapter 312 Attacking Paulina
An Ning looked at Paulina unexpectedly: "You..."

Before he could say anything about you, Paulina was like a proud rooster—well, she's a hen but she's shaped like a proud rooster—and said: "I don't like you People who look down on others because they don’t understand!
"And as long as you concentrate on reading Frost's argument, you will be convinced by the wisdom and logic contained in it!

"If you are not convinced, it means you are an out-and-out idiot! An idiot like you has no right to question Frost!"

An Ning was stunned by the sidelines. Napoleon was already a hard-core "fuck", but he didn't expect his sister to get worse.

It seems that Napoleon's tireless admiration of An Ning has left an imprint on the younger sister's impression like a steel stamp of thought.

An Ning couldn't help but said, "It's not to this extent, I just made a reasonable guess about the future..."

Paulina didn't care what An Ning said at all, she was like a fighting cock who had found her target, all her attention was on her opponent.She stared at Desmoulins and asked: "Don't you know that the products of the British textile factories that have adopted the steam engine have bankrupted a large number of handicraft factories?

"Can't you see that the steam engine factory established by Frost is generating a lot of wealth? Smart as Barras, seeing an opportunity to make money, why not take the initiative to invest?

"Is there a more trustworthy investment object than Lord Frost?"

Desmoulins was rendered speechless by Paulina's continuous cannonball, but he still stiffened his neck: "Maybe what you said does have some truth, but this is actually a bribe!"

Paulina snorted: "It seems impossible for us to reach a consensus, so let's use the traditional method in Paris to decide. I've already thrown the glove in your face. Let's duel!"

In Paris before the Great Revolution, people died in duels every once in a while, and this has become the main cause of death among noble youths.

But the situation has changed now. One is that most of the young people have joined the army now, and there are not many street thugs in Paris. The second is that the nobles who are left now dare not talk about their noble status, so naturally it doesn’t matter.” For the glory of the nobility" duels with people.

Desmoulins: "Paris is no longer the dueling city it used to be. Times have changed."

An Ning thought to himself, Duel City or something, it sounds like the people there are very good at playing cards.

Paulina was a little embarrassed: "Is this out of fashion now? The Republic legislates to ban this?"

An Ning: "That's not true, it's just that changes in objective conditions have changed the fashion trend in Paris."

Paulina looked at An Ning: "Aren't you dueling with others? My brother said that you still have to deal with dozens of challengers every year!"

An Ning wants to raise his forehead, good guy, Napoleon, Napoleon, you should be careful when you brag!

An Ning: "No, there is no such thing. How can anyone in Paris dare to challenge me to a duel?"

A crowd of onlookers shouted: "Actually, after he became famous as a noble killer, few people dared to duel with him. Everyone is willing to spare their lives."

When the voice fell, someone said, "It turned out to be the end, and I went to the guillotine."

Everyone laughed.

An Ning narrowed her eyes and observed the crowd.He suddenly realized that even in the Jacobin Club, the stronghold of the Jacobins, some people were tired of the bloody killings that had lasted for many months.

Should Robespierre be persuaded to stop?

However, Robespierre has just established the National Salvation Committee and banned the courts where all trials are handed over to the "people's jury". people.

While An Ning was thinking about this, Paulina pointed to Desmoulins and said, "Even if this is an outdated tradition, you were thrown by a woman by me, and it hit you right in the face! Don't you Come to a duel, and you will lose all your face as a man!"

Desmoulins gritted his teeth, and then squeezed out a sentence: "Well, since you ask so, then as a gentleman who is responsive to the ladies, I will fight you!"

Paulina was very excited: "Come on! I know that the time and place of the duel must be agreed, and three notaries must be assembled! The notary on my side should be the general!"

An Ning was actually a little worried about Paulina's safety at this time. After all, the little girl didn't look like she could fight very well. If she suffered a loss, she couldn't explain it to Napoleon.

After all, the Napoleon thief in this time and space loves this younger sister, and she raised her as the apple of his eye.

An Ning: "Actually, there is another saying about duels. When ladies want to duel, they will choose a beloved 'knight' to fight for her. Paulina, let me do it!"

Polina shook her head stubbornly: "No! I can handle it! I have always been the top in Brienne's courses. Whether it is swordsmanship or gun shooting, I am the strongest in Brienne."

An Ning wondered if there was a possibility that you won the first place because the noble children of Brienne were all thieves?
But after thinking about it, where are the nobles now? They either died or ran away, and the remaining few who surrendered to the Republic are all under An Ning's hands.

The current Brienne Military Academy should be in a state of "reducing talents in an eclectic manner", which shows that Paulina's top grades really have a certain amount of gold.

So An Ning agreed - if he happened to be a witness by the side, he could intervene in the duel if the situation was not good.

Paulina cheered: "Yeah! What about the time? According to the rules, who chooses the duel time? Is it me? And what weapons are used?"

Desmoulins: "Of course it's a pistol. After all, even Mr. Frost admits that firearms are the fangs of civilians. No matter how much time the nobles spend honing various martial arts, they will have nothing to do with pistols."

It was only then that An Ning remembered that he had really said this sentence, but he didn't think much about it at the time, he just pretended to be coercive.

Unexpectedly, this was also spread as a wise saying.

In the current situation, if I fart myself and complain about "really stinky", it will be made into a short story of the bosom friend department.

Next, the two parties quickly agreed on the time and place.

The notary on Desmoulins' side said that he would bring it on the day of the duel, and this person's weight is definitely enough.

As for the third-party notary, after discussion, it was unanimously decided to be Lazar Cano, who has been working hard in Paris.

It is strange to say that Lazar Carnot was obviously promoted by An Ning, and he clearly accepted An Ning's leadership, but because he has always handled things impartially and without any bias towards An Ning's faction, he was regarded as a middle-aged man in Paris. stand up.

It turns out that Lazar Kano was in a similar position in history, and whoever comes up will drag him to be the Minister of War.

After the decision was made, Paulina hugged An Ning's arms excitedly: "Great! Just look at it, I will find those who dare to despise your ideals one by one!"
