Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C3075 Gan Bida resigned

December 17, 1870, with only eight days left before Christmas, Street in Paris, who was in a deadlock, suddenly posted countless notices. There were also countless newspaper boys holding numbers to send on the streets.

The Interim Defence Government's surrender order had finally been notified to all of Paris and to all of France!

"..." I declare to the entire kingdom with a heavy heart that because the war has left the France riddled with scars, the situation can no longer be turned around. If we continue to fight, we will only be able to plunge our homeland into an irrecoverable situation … "

"..." "After a joint resolution of the Interim Government and urgent consultations with Prussia, the National Interim Government solemnly declared that they would surrender to Prussia in exchange for the end of the war …"

"..." From the time of the signing of the draft treaty, the two sides immediately ceased all military operations and handed over responsibility for the defense of Paris to Prussia, which had to ensure the smooth flow of supplies to Paris. "

"..." The resistance movements in the different provinces of France immediately stopped, and all the military organizations immediately put down their weapons, and stopped their attacks on the Prussian Legion … "

"..." "Loire River Regiment, immediately stop the battle and stand guard on the spot. Maintain the existing military lines."

"..." The France will pay the Prussian side 200 million francs in war reparations and the Chinese side 60 million francs in war reparations... "

The whole of Paris was dumbfounded, even the entire France was dumbfounded. Gan Bida looked at the telegraph in his hands, not daring to believe his eyes.

"The loss of power and disgrace of the country! He had lost his power! You can sign an alliance under the city like this? This is simply a loss of power and a disgrace to the country! " Gan Bida's tears flowed down his face.

When the Mace City surrendered, Gan Bida had drank an entire bottle of whisky, and he cried inside the tent for the whole night.

But after releasing his emotions, Gan Bida stood up like an iron man, and continued to command the Southern Legion to attack Prince Karl.

Although the outcome of the war was not satisfactory, there were still more and more regular troops in the northern part of Prussia. These elite veterans were not something that a group of newbies who had just entered the battlefield could handle.

However, the more the Southern Legion fought, the more valiant they became. With the support of the Southern Province, which had endless potential, as long as there was enough time, the war would surely turn around.

But he never thought that Trochu from Paris would actually surrender. This terrible news caused Gan Bida to immediately collapse.

Countless commanders rushed out from the HQ, and when they gathered in front of Minister of the Interior, they too, panicked.

"Minister... The Interim Government has surrendered, how can we fight them? Do I have to disobey my orders? "

"Is the old general crazy? How could such a humiliating treaty be signed? Two hundred and sixty million francs, how can we give it to the enemy for free! "

These officers were so angry that they almost fainted. Some even shouted the slogan of marching towards Paris and disbanding the Interim Government! He wanted to see how the army of the Prince Karl of the North would manage to advance!

Just as the command center was in a state of chaos, the civil officials under Gan Bida's command opened their mouths to speak weakly. We... We hope that you can calm down! "

"There have been some unusual movements in the Southern Province recently. Things have changed …" Our preparation for the war suddenly met with many obstacles, and our efficiency is far from what it used to be … "

What had happened? After hearing the civil servant's report, Gan Bida's heart was even colder than if he had heard the declaration of surrender!

It turned out that those southern provinces that had never experienced war and devastation were also the territory of the royalist party's traditional forces!

What is a royalist party? In fact, the composition of these people were very representative. They were mainly nobles, conservative capitalists, and the powers of the Church.

And these three were the most prestigious people in the south of France!

Those who had studied the recent history of mankind knew very well that the main force in the awakening of the people's ideology was the intellectual class, and the second was the working class.

Farmers have always been a conservative synonym, which is a global phenomenon.

France is the same, those peasants who have been locked up in the countryside all their lives, their thoughts and values are basically instilled by the people around them.

Those noble villas in the beautiful villages, the men majestically patrolling their own territory. On the church bells, the pious priest brought the villagers to attend mass together.

Who are the conservative capitalists? To put it bluntly, it was the Chinese squire!

These three types of people were the closest to the farmers and possessed the most knowledge. If an uneducated farmer did not listen to them, who else could he listen to?

And basically, seventy to eighty percent of these people were royalist party s!

When the French Emperor began to give orders to the royalist party s to control the behavior of the farmers from afar, these people began to control the farmers' actions in all sorts of names.

Right now, it was the end of the nineteenth century, not the twentieth mid-century leaf. At the moment, the strength of the working class was still much weaker, the economic foundation of the south of France was actually still propped up by farmers and conservative capitalists.

Once these people began to act against the Yin and Yang, the efficiency of preparing for war in the south would clearly lag behind.

The peasants refused to pay taxes that were longer than the deadline. The local officials even asked the Interim Government to immediately pay the arrears of the farmers' money.

The white slip that used to be signed with the banner of patriotism was no longer useful. More and more farmers were asking for cash transactions!

In fact, during daily work, local officials would often be pointed at and scolded by the farmers: "Why did you have to fight for so long, or did you not manage to chase Prussian out?"

"If your Interim Government doesn't work well, then please come back and continue! With regards to the war, who else can you look for other than the Bonaparte Family? "

Look! This was how the peasants were short-sighted. They were easily taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives!

Gan Bida sat down on the chair, everything was connected, he suddenly understood, and realised that someone had already arranged everything.

Behind the entire Franco-Prussian War, there was an extremely vicious hand that was constantly manipulating the internal conflicts in the France!

"What a terrifying enemy! Using the contradictions of the enemy to attack the enemy, and splitting France at all costs … Who was this person? Bismark or Xiao Letian? "

"Damn it!"

Gan Bida stood up and said loudly, "My fellow soldiers, the situation is still unclear to us, we cannot act rashly … "From now on, stop attacking and seize the time to train the soldiers …"

"Everyone should continue expanding their troops and organizing supplies …"

"However, I need to express my opinion. In order to protest against the lives of the Interim Government, I have decided to resign! I don't want this Minister of the Interior, I don't want all of her positions! "

"Send a telegram to the entire country immediately. I do not agree with the Interim Government's ceasefire agreement. I, Gan Bida, will not accept this!"

The surrounding officers all understood, they had their chests pulled up high, "Rest assured Department Head, now that you have resigned, our Loire River Regiment will always listen to your orders!"

"This Interim Government is a coward! We will use our cannon to help you prepare for the new government! "

"Loire River Regiment will always be your strong shield!"

At that moment, Gan Bida finally understood how wonderful it was to have control of the army!

No matter what, the army was always purer and simpler than the locals! If you were the one who made this army, he would be like your child, never leaving!

The military admired the good guys, not just the appointment letter!

"A great hero of the world! Which one of them didn't end up in the army?! Men, lead the army! "
