Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Marshal McMahon looked at the young officer with eyes filled with praise. He said indifferently, "Everyone thinks that the The French Empire and the Republic of China are like water and fire. In fact, this viewpoint is completely wrong!"

"Really, you are all wrong …" Or rather, some people with ulterior motives have instilled wrong ideas into you! "

"The First Republic of the France was born during the great revolution, and was eventually overthrown by Great Emperor Napoleon. The War God established the First Empire of the France!"

"Do you think that the First Republic and the First Empire are enemies? Are they mortal enemies? "

"Wrong!" The true history is simply not like that. If it was not because of the choice of the people, then the great revolution would not have happened, and Emperor Napoleon would not have taken office! "

"The First Republic and the First Empire are essentially one!"

"AHH!" The young officer was momentarily at a loss. He could not accept this answer because it was completely different from what he had heard in Paris!

The marshal could see the confusion in the young man's eyes, and he smiled as he patted him on the shoulder. Real history is not what you hear about... "

The mystery of history was gradually solved and the marshal had started a long time ago.

There was no need to talk about the importance of the French Revolution to the history of mankind. He had shattered the supreme position of the divine right, and had also beaten the feudal rulers to the point of looking for their teeth on the ground.

Although this revolution was full of bloody violence and the process made many Historian shake their heads and sigh, the positive significance of this revolution was undeniable!

Everyone was born equal. This saying was a matter of course for the people of the 21st century, but before the Great Revolution, whoever dared to say it would die!

What society believed in at that time was human life and not equality!

The son of a cobbler would be a cobbler all his life, or at most a carpenter!

The son of a farmer could only be a tenant for his entire life. If he wanted to change his fate, he could only rely on sailing and becoming a sailor!

Before the Revolution, Europe's hierarchy was very strict, so how could the The Age of Great Navigation open it? Perhaps there is a source of motivation that we cannot ignore!

That was, in the continental Europe, the people at the bottom level had no ability to change their class. Going down might be simple, but going up would definitely be impossible!

The ruling class will always be a closed circle. Without that bloodline, you will never be able to enter!

This was one of the most different points between Europe and China at the time. Although the Chinese class existed as well, at least there was still the path of the imperial examinations, and there was even the other path of rebellion!

If the lowest classes in Europe had nowhere else to go, they would have to take a ship to the New World, to the colonies, and emigrate there in an attempt to start a new life.

It was a pity that the new continent and colonies were not paradise. Furthermore, the people at the bottom of Europe would not all leave their homes. That way, the feudal lords would not agree.

How do the left of the destitute live? Was he going to be bullied as a commoner for generations? It was under such a huge background that the French Revolution erupted!

A thousand years of oppression had accumulated a vast amount of power, like the eruption of a volcano. When he was released, all the emperors in Europe trembled!

The miserable fates of the Emperor of France and the nobles caused the British royal family, the Austria and the Prussian royal family … The major royal families in Europe were all terrified!

What was this? The commoner dared to slaughter the emperor? What if the citizens of his own country followed suit? Could it be London, Berlin, Madrid, the Vienna, Moscow... Every kingdom's capital would have their guillotine erected?

Behead all the kings and queens?

This time, under the pressure of fear, all the kings in Europe joined forces and started to form an anti-French alliance, launching a war on the First Republic of France!

This was the first anti-French alliance!

England, Prussian Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Spain, Italy's Kingdom of Sardinia, and the Divine Roman Empire, also known as the Austria … These nations formed an alliance and charged towards the France together!

It was as if Marshal McMahon was immersed in the flames of war that year. He stayed silent for a good two minutes before he spoke again, "My child! That year, the most important obstacle for the First Empire was self-preservation! "

"The fruits of the Revolution must be protected! If the anti-French alliance wins, all the provisions established by the Revolution will become toilet paper for those kings! "

"What do you mean by human rights declaration! What kind of commoners could be conferred a title!? Abolition! All of this will be shattered, abolished, and France will once again return to a dark era … "

"For the First Republic, there was only one thing they had to consider at that time, and that was survival! It's not just a nominal Chinese name! "

"My child, the name doesn't matter! They said that our France had returned to the time of slavery in the Ancient Rome and that they would change their name without hearing anything. Do you think that's alright? "

"No!" "Absolutely not. The social system hasn't changed, so what's the use of just changing the name?" The eighteen-year-old lieutenant said loudly.

"That's right, child. That won't do!"

"Who finally crushed the anti-French alliance? It's Napoleon. Bonaparte, the Emperor of the War God! He used his genius art of command to turn all the kings of Europe into pigs! "

"He used military means to protect the achievements of the Revolution! "Remember, child, any social system requires military means to be protected!"

"But the Republic back then did not have the ability to protect itself! Those revolutionaries who are enthusiastic about revolution but lack military expertise, they have no choice! "

"To continue to control his own army and fight against the anti-French alliance? To be honest, they do not have that kind of expertise, because those people did not receive a truly good education before the revolution, so they do not understand! "

"Military is a very professional field. Without a good education and talent, it is impossible to play! That is why they can only hand over the authority of a general to Great Emperor Napoleon! "

"It was Napoleon's guns that protected the fruits of the revolution, and it was also he who used the law to officially determine whether the spirit of the revolution was legal and unchangeable!"

"Although Napoleon has become the emperor, although he has turned the country into an empire, the things that are running within the France are actually still from the same generation as the First Republic!"

"That was the most important reason why the masses supported the Bonaparte Family at that time!"

"Because... Because, the spirit of being born equal was something that the Napoleon Emperor had protected with his powerful military means! This is what the motherland is grateful for! "

"This is what wargods want!"

"Child! Do you understand now? The First Republic and the First Empire were originally one and the same! We're originally all like one person! "

"China is just the manifestation of the Great Revolution's civil and administrative system, and the First Empire is the manifestation of the Great Revolution's martial arts!"

"They are not enemies. They are not enemies to begin with!"

With a loud boom, the 18-year-old captain's mind exploded like a thunderclap, including many of the surrounding soldiers with their eyes wide open.
