King's Landing in France

Chapter 372 Cheers to Good Man Frost

On An Ning's side, he left the parliament and ran back to the Royal Palace angrily.

Christina was already waiting for him at the Royal Palace, and his father-in-law, Mr. Equality, was also waiting for him.

As soon as Mr. Equality saw An Ning come back with a group of officers, he greeted him and said, "I have tried my best to prevent the passing of the interim constitution. But it seems that many of the congressmen have small thoughts, and they probably want to test Get your bottom line.

"My dear son-in-law, if you don't take resolute action, they will continue to push forward."

An Ning: "Is this still blocked?"

"Yes, Christina and I have tried our best to prevent it. In fact, all the MPs related to industry and finance should have voted against it. Those who approve of the interim constitution are mainly manor owners, farmers, and originally city employees. , including lawyers, judges, and clerks.

"Christina wrote in the report, including the content of the interim constitution and our response."

Christina: "I wrote a very detailed report, haven't you read it?"

An Ning was embarrassed.

At this time, Fanny said: "It's like this. Your Excellency handed over all the paperwork to Chief of Staff Berthier, but the Chief of Staff felt that your letter, Madam, was a personal letter, so I left it to Your Excellency to handle it personally."

An Ning couldn't hold back any longer, so she could only confess: "Well, I usually only read the summary at the beginning. I didn't expect this provisional constitution to be so fucked up."

Seeing that Fanny had spoken, the officers standing behind him expressed their opinions one after another.

Napoleon: "I think we should put the cannon at the gates of the Parliament."

Rana: "The stomachs of these insects are full of bad water. They should be elected from among real workers."

"Then what if they are illiterate?" La Salle asked back.

Rana: "You can teach them to read and write. Our literacy education in the army is very good. In the future, we can recruit all the laborers into the army, teach them how to read and how to think! Those who do not have the energy to serve in the army are not citizens. !"

An Ning looked at Lana in surprise, because the system Lana mentioned was the social system Heinlein envisioned in "Starship Troopers", and Heinlein had been scolded for this for many years.

As soon as Lana finished speaking, Bernadotte said: "This is too extreme...It will become a complete military society...However, it is indeed possible to consider establishing a military training institution to train ordinary people become good citizens."

Moreau: "That's not much different from being directly recruited into the army?"

Davout: "I think there should be a loyal watchdog to deal with speculators who want to enrich themselves."

"Then how do we guarantee the loyalty of this institution?" Massena asked back, "Forget it, let the politicians mess around, our army establishes its own system, its own military industry and agricultural production areas, its own caravans, We play our own. We have enough talents. You see, I am a sailor and businessman, and Davout is... well, you are a professional soldier, but Lana is a dyer. He can organize the production of our military uniforms, right? "

The generals began chatting about how to build a country, and An Ning suddenly felt very relieved watching this scene.

Yes, the war is over, at least temporarily, and the country can be built.

Maybe some generals can be temporarily retired to take up other positions.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Fanny immediately answered the door.

Only then did An Ning realize that it seemed strange that a large group of generals would just stand in the foyer of the Royal Palace talking about the future of the country.

No matter what, find a place to sit down and talk.

Just when An Ning was about to invite everyone into the restaurant, Fanny reported loudly, "Your Excellency, there is a German guest asking to see you."

An Ning: "Germany? I don't know any other Germans except Beethoven. Let him in."

Beethoven came in, and then grinned at An Ning: "Your Excellency, besides me, there are some friends from my hometown who want to learn military technology from you."

An Ning raised her eyebrows: "From your hometown?"

A few Prussians came out from behind Beethoven—they were called Prussians because of their meticulous attire, and it looked like they were from the staid Prussian officer corps.

An Ning: "I never knew that your hometown is Prussia?"

Beethoven: "Don't you think that all German countries will become a unified nation-state in the future? So this is my hometown people.

"I would like to introduce you to the youngest, Karl Philip Gottfried von Clausewitz, who is only 14 years old but already a fanatical follower of yours.

"And this one is Earl Scharnhorst, he wants to learn from your reform of the French army.

"And this one..."

Napoleon interrupted Beethoven: "I know this one, Gneisenau, don't you! We met on the battlefield."

As he spoke, he approached enthusiastically and hugged Gneisenau: "You impress me so much, I salute you!"

Gneisenau: "Salute to the French army. The French army is the best army I have ever seen. I hope you will not hesitate to teach me."

An Ning: "Don't worry, we don't want to keep fighting with the army of the old kingdom. Those victories have made us tired. But, gentlemen who speak German, the root of the French army's combat effectiveness is the social system. You are ready to change your motherland Is it the original system?"

In fact, in the middle and late stages of the war, the French army no longer had such a big advantage compared with the armies of other European countries, because other countries also awakened their national consciousness and carried out military reforms based on the French army.

In fact, the advantages of the French army are not so mysterious, and it is not necessary to change the national system to learn.

But now that An Ning has the right to speak, he must have the final say.

He just wants to create an impression that if you don't become a republic, you don't want to fight with us.

Several Prussians looked at each other.

Then Clausewitz, who was the youngest, said, "Why not? From the present point of view, becoming a republic is a good thing for the people, isn't it?"

Several other Prussians looked at each other.

**
While An Ning met the Prussians who came to study, Paul Ballas was in an exciting tandem.

Many gentlemen in Paris were emboldened today after Frost led the generals out of the parliament hall.

A lot of ideas that I didn't dare to think of before came out.

His lover was holding a salon at Malmaison Castle, and many gentlemen accompanied the lady to the salon.

The ladies drank tea and chatted in the castle's greenhouse, while the gentlemen gathered in the study of Malmaison Castle.

Ballas was addressing the gentlemen: "Today's incident proves that Frost will not use his military power as long as we act within the framework of the republic!
"I guess it was because some of his officers had a deep-rooted republican obsession.

"The real danger is Napoleon Bonaparte, he's an ambitious man, anyone can tell, and he can bombard Parliament with cannons if he doesn't care! But Napoleon can't do that as long as Frost is alive!

"We can take back power bit by bit through parliamentary struggle! I propose, let's drink to the good old Frost!"
