Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C2811 Great Xiaxia Divergence

Despair filled every pore of the empire. From Paris to the Marseille, from the cities to the villages, all the people of France could smell the scent of despair.

The news of the army's consecutive defeats was already a foregone conclusion. Although the news of the navy's crushing defeat was forcefully suppressed by the empress, the rumors never stopped.

The workers on the left were arming their own Self Guard, they started using various channels to stock up weapons, there were also Blanqui's men in the weapons factory in Paris, they had even marked out the location of the cannons.

As long as the time was ripe, not only would these workers possess rifles, they could even snatch cannons!

The People's Republic of China did not stay idle either, especially for those like Gan Bida, who were the leaders of the Dojo of Limits. They left the stinky pond in Paris and began to use their influence to promote the Republic's ideology.

Moreover, these people were constantly encouraging the youngsters to join the military camp. They encouraged the people to contribute and even used their patriotism to forcefully take over some of the warehouses.

To put things bluntly, Gan Bida could transfer even more resources than Queen Ou Renni!

It made sense, because Paris was a land of death, while the vast south of France was a country with a deep strategy!

Of course, there were also schemers and schemers like Thiers. He used all sorts of methods to steal the wealth of the Imperial Bank, and then used this wealth to arm his own guards.

Thiers was not stupid. He knew that tens of thousands of Gold franc could not even organize an army, all he wanted to do was to defend Paris, the center of political power, and use a strong guard to hold the council in place.

Thiers had planned for the Empire to collapse sooner or later, and at that time, the France would definitely return to the system of the Republic.

Whether it was the presidential or the prime minister system, these people needed the strong support of the council!

The moment Da Xia was about to fall, Thiers's money and guards would be able to protect these powerless councilors. As long as they could control the majority of the councilors, they would have a place for Thiers in the future.

Everyone was making preparations. Everyone was waiting for the upheaval that was about to occur!

There were even some nobles from other branches of the Bonaparte Family who had already started evacuating to England or Spain. What was interesting was that Empress Ou Renni actually drank up all the wine that was stored in the Tuileries' Palace for over a hundred years and over.

In fact, Ou Renni's heart was also filled with despair!

During this period of time, he had lost more than five kilograms, and his hair had already turned white overnight. The high mental pressure caused his appetite to continuously ache, and he seemed to have to fight against the illness with all of his might.

His son, Prince Eugen, was also in a tough spot. The two dark circles around his eyes were like smoke that had been smoked before.

In the morning of the patrol city, Crown Prince had personally witnessed a group of random soldiers rushing into the houses to rob food, and even raping women.

The adults' scolding and the children's pain made him heartbroken. The angry Crown Prince immediately ordered his men to be killed on the spot.

But they never would have thought that Ironfist City's military discipline would be exchanged for anger from countless soldiers. Killing the soldiers was already out of control of the army, and Crown Prince knew that if they continued to lose like this, the army would turn into a mess sooner or later!

From then on, Crown Prince did not dare to casually shoot and kill soldiers. Even if he encountered a case of adultery or looting, he would only use his whip to punish the soldiers.

"Back to the City Hall... "We can't go on like this. We have to let these soldiers leave the city. From now on, except for the officers who can live in the city, the rest of the soldiers are not allowed to enter the city!"

"If this goes on, these soldiers will all become a group of wild beasts!"

The aide beside him carefully reminded him, "Your Highness..." "Yesterday, the empress had already sent you a telegram telling you to stay close to your cavalry. If there's any change, you have to leave immediately …"

"The empress has arranged for the most loyal naval forces in Calais... When the time comes, there will be a battleship that will take you to England … "At this time, it's best for you to mind these soldiers as little as possible!"

"They also need to vent! "Otherwise, the army will collapse …"

"Bastard!" You want me to become a deserter? " Crown Prince Eugén took out his whip and was about to attack, but seeing his loyal aide-de-camp, he couldn't wave his whip.

"Your Highness!" It's useless for you to beat me up. It's more important for me to stay alive … The rise and fall of Bonaparte Family has already become a habit, as long as you are alive, there will be hope for our family! "

"Listen to me, the republicans and the socialists, are a bunch of idealists! Those people can't even do military work! "

"Even if we step down now, we will have a chance to rise again in the future!"

"Stop patrolling the city, it's useless! In this situation, even if God came, there was no saving him! "Prepare to retreat …"

The aide-de-camp didn't only mean that he was the only one who wanted to say this, it was basically the consensus of almost all the royalist party, including Empress Ou Renni!

In their eyes, Napoleon was already old, and had already lost all of his prestige. Then, the future hope of this family lay with the Crown Prince Eugén.

During the chaos in Paris, the Crown Prince had displayed his courage and diplomatic skills. Furthermore, a lot of good governance had been designated by the Crown Prince, so the citizens who had eaten so much of the Crown Prince's bread were very grateful to the Crown Prince.

The most important thing was that the crown prince was still young. This was a clean piece of paper, and he did not have any sins that he needed to wipe out!

In addition, the Europeans did not care about their father's debts, as the bastards of the French Emperor were all part of the French Emperor, so it had nothing to do with the young crown prince.

Protecting the Crown Prince was equivalent to protecting the future of the clan. Could it be that Napoleon's fourth lifetime would be restored in the future? Thinking about it was also very possible!

Crown Prince's face was gloomy as he rode his horse back to the city council. Just as he entered the hall, he heard a group of generals surrounding the French Emperor, clamoring and complaining.

All sorts of unpleasantness, Paris, the Salon, the Navy, the Army... Even from the provinces, urgent telegrams flew in like snowflakes.

At the same time, French Emperor held his head with one hand, his elbow was on the table and his other hand was tightly pressing his appetite. A wave of pain assaulted him non-stop, causing his face to turn extremely pale white.

The Crown Prince's heart ached, but he had no other choice. The current situation was just like this, as the French Emperor, he had to bear the pressure!

Ou Renni put down her horsewhip, rushed into the telegraph room and said loudly, "From now on, all telegrams are to be approved by me first, and then be delivered to His Majesty!"

However, before the crown prince finished his sentence, a telegraph in the corner suddenly ticked!
