Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

With just a few words, French Emperor had raised Xiao Letian's actions by more than one or two levels, directly turning the insult he had given himself into an insult to the entire noble class in France.

This was the most infuriating point in French Emperor's heart, because he was too clear on the reason for his successful restoration of the Empire. He relied on the support of these French nobles and the Church to achieve his goal.

This was what colluding with a gangster was all about. Although the Qing Dynasty was the successor to the Xiluo's family, their family knew very well that they had relied on the support of the Eight Banners family to become the emperor. Of course, they had also relied on the support of the Confucians family later on.

The human heart is a bit forceful, do you not know how you got on the stage? Did he really think that he was the pride of the heavens? You say that you are an emperor, that you are an emperor?

The Emperor has to be praised. He has to be praised by a group of people, saying that you are the Emperor. Only you are the Emperor!

Without these people, the emperor was nothing. Just like how fish could not leave the water, the emperor could not leave these classes that supported him!

On the surface, it looked like Xiao Letian had only killed one palace knight, but from Napoleon's mouth, it had become a provocation to the whole noble class in France.

Some people said that being despicable would easily lead to a series of irrational acts, which was exactly what she said. It was because when they were in French Revolution, killing and stealing the nobles of France, it was really a painful memory.

Therefore, these surviving nobles all had a sense of fear in their hearts. Of course, they all had a little self-abasement when facing the nobles from other European countries.

It was said that the more afraid they were, the more they would get. Molière's death made these aristocrats empathize with him.

This was no longer the tragedy of a rabbit or a fox; this was the sorrow of a wolf!

In the entire hall, all the high officials who carried noble titles on their bodies were enraged, they felt as if they were part of their emotions. Molière's death was the prelude to their death, it was as if Xiao Letian was going to raise his butcher knife to kill them in the next second!

"Your Majesty! The Empire would never accept such humiliation! "Let us go back to Asia and attack the Chinese capital again!" The Duke of oculi bridge was the first to clamor.

Even the steady and steady General Ba Zan and Marshal Meng Gumali had no choice but to state their support for the Emperor's military actions!

As for the empire's prime minister, Ao Liwei, as well as the official, Trochu and the others, expressed their worry. Are we really going to declare war with the Chinese and Prussia? "

"You have to understand that the only ones who angered us were the Chinese …"

Napoleon III spurted out before he finished his sentence, the emperor had already turned into a mad dog and could no longer reason!

"Shut up! Prussia and the Chinese are already in a state of alliance. I gave Prussia a chance, but they didn't cherish it.

"The problem has to be solved. I no longer have the patience to play games with them! The arrogant Prussia must be taught a lesson! "

The civil officials immediately shrank their necks, not daring to say anything. Everyone sighed in their hearts. This war was unavoidable, and everyone had already mentally prepared themselves for it. They just did not expect it to happen so soon.

The Crown Prince standing in the corner felt that he had the responsibility to splash cold water on his father, so he mustered his courage and stood up.

"My father, I beg of you to calm down. Although war is inevitable, we still have to prepare for it!"

"Right now, our northern borders only have a total of two hundred thousand standing army. It can only be said that we are on par with the Prussian on the other side. The scales of the war's victories are not completely ours …"

"I've talked to Marshal Ba Zan previously. Even if the country enters a state of emergency after the declaration of war, we can only gather around a hundred thousand people within ten days …"

"And how many troops can the opposing Prussian gather within ten days? "We don't have any information on him …"

"Enough! Do you really think the Prussian has that much ability? "Our French Army is the best in the world, and we can kill Prussia in equal numbers!"

"Don't forget that in France, we have the professional soldier system, but Prussia has the loose compulsory army system. In terms of soldiers' quality, we have the advantage!"

"Do you think professional soldiers can't beat those part-time farmers?" Napoleon shouted as he puffed his beard and glared.

Sweat started dripping down the crown prince's forehead. "Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. I just said we need to be careful when using soldiers …" With these words, the Prince Eugen threw caution to the wind.

He gritted his teeth and steeled his heart, "Your Majesty!" The situation we are preparing for now is not very optimistic, so I can tell you clearly that the problems you faced during the previous inspections were too big! "

"Almost all the arsenals on the northern border exist, and the accounts are in disarray and the numbers do not match... I have even investigated and dealt with more than a dozen worms who were secretly selling firearms! "

"Father!" The Empire is indeed very powerful on account right now, but I really can't guarantee what the real situation is like! "

The crown prince was so anxious that he was on the verge of tears, "Your Majesty, if you leave the military affairs of the empire to me, I'll have to take responsibility for the empire!" "It's a mess down there. It's really not as simple as you think …"

The crown prince's words made all the officials present turn silent. They were all looking left and right, planning something in their minds!

The situation that the Prince Eugen was talking about was actually just the tip of the iceberg. The Crown Prince was young, but he was not stupid, he knew that there were many tangled roots and roots, and the source of many conflicts of interest was in the hall.

Many of these prestigious generals, heads of state, ministers, and ministers were also the source of the empire's corruption and chaos as well as a protective umbrella.

It was unknown how much of the surplus money had flowed into their pockets. There were too many people, so much that the crown prince did not dare to fight them directly!

Today, the Crown Prince was just talking about what he could do. He didn't even dare to talk about the real hole!

Could he tell his father that half of the largest granary in the Lorraine area was empty? Can you say that the remaining half is moldy wheat?

Could he tell his father that the gunpowder from many of the depots had long since become unusable, and that many of the new rifles had been replaced by old models?

The Empire's army of one million soldiers could only use two hundred thousand at the moment. How deep was the water inside?

But today, his father had already been driven mad by Xiao Letian and had already lost his reason. He did not listen to the crown prince at all and just walked onto the terrace while holding his son's hand.

"My child, listen to the voices of the citizens of the city! Listen carefully! Do you think we have a way out? "
