This name is actually not unfamiliar. A while ago, in Orleans, he defeated the commander of the British army, the French national salvation hero, Joan of Arc.I heard that she was later liquidated by the royal family, why has she become the pinnacle of power now?

People have the desire to gossip. Through newspaper reports and word of mouth, it is easy to inquire about Joan's recent deeds.

That is more exciting content than the French Revolution itself. It is better to say that Joan of Arc alone is half a big event:

Trapped deep in the Bastille, but still able to defeat the incoming assassins, Joan of Arc and Stacia forged a deep friendship after the battle in this prison.After that, Joan's impassioned speech at the trial meeting resonated with everyone, and it was a peak of her popularity.At the stake, Joan of Arc was destined to remain in the history of France.

However, she came back, and Joan of Arc fulfilled her "return in three days" prophecy, organized an army to conquer the Bastille, and rescued Stacia who was in crisis.Today, occupying the Palace of Versailles has become the well-deserved "first ruling" of France

The specific detailed process is unknown, but only knowing this part is shocking enough.

What a legendary turnaround against the wind!

From the stake to the Palace of Versailles, Joan of Arc stepped on the hegemony of power and conspiracy to reach the top of the throne, which is more soul-stirring than the writing style of Homer's epic. This is a leader who conforms to everyone's heroic imagination.

In the entire continent of Europa, no one in the world knows the king.

Even, Joan of Arc's "three-day return" has been recognized as the blessing of God and the savior sent by Jesus Christ.Among them, the branch church in France publicly stated that "Holy Maiden" is no longer enough, and the word "Messiah" should be cited and the name "Great Emperor" should be added.

The Holy See of the Vatican remained silent on this, and passers-by who watched also felt that the dog-licking behavior of the French branch was a bit exaggerated.

At this time, no one would have thought that the Messiah the Great would soon live up to his name.

While everyone was focusing on France, another major event happened:

The Constitutional Convention issued the "Declaration of Human Rights", advocating the redivision of constituencies, the establishment and improvement of judicial institutions, the abolition of noble privileges, and the abolition of tribute by way of redemption.The most important thing is the voice of the times that comes from the heart, "Men are born and will always be free and equal." Reality does not matter, and the light of idealism begins to shine on this land where the Enlightenment was born.

Joan of Arc once again responded to the buried voice of this era, dared to be the first, and announced this ideal openly.

Perhaps, the soul of the traveler itself has an idealistic color.Once upon a time, many people who called themselves realists hid an idealistic heart and wanted to turn their ideals into reality.

With the release of the Declaration of Human Rights, the more shocking details were disclosed by major newspapers:

Abolish the absolute monarchy, abolish the privileges of the nobles, limit the maximum working hours, guarantee the minimum wage, re-divide land, confiscate church property, announce that the French Church is separated from the Vatican, and the Holy See officially implements the separation of church and state...

The evolutionary version of the "Declaration of Human Rights" revised by Ai Hayasaka is even more astonishing, stirring up waves with one stone.

The Continent of Europa is silent.

The people feel as if a bright light has been lit in the darkness, letting them know what they should pursue, what is happiness and what is freedom.

A declaration is to arouse the greatest resonance and speak out the voices of the people, even if it is a roar that shocks the world, it will bring the truth to the world.

However, the reason for the silence is also because of the long-term fear in my heart...

Such a deviant direct attack on the king, nobles and church will definitely be strangled by all forces.

Sure enough, once this declaration was released, Britain, Spain, and Turkey all condemned the French authorities.Prussia and Austria form a coalition force to attack the French border, and they are approaching the capital Paris.

In an instant, France was in turmoil, and the flame of the Great Revolution seemed to be dimmed...

At this moment, the Palace of Versailles was full of singing and dancing. The ladies and gentlemen were drunk with wine and stepped on the beat of the waltz, as if returning to the luxury of the Baroque era.

However, someone is always awake.

Joan looked coldly at the huge dance floor from the escalator at the top of the hall, and casually asked Gilderre:

"How is it? Is the transfer going well?"

The man in military uniform saluted, "Report to the officer, the old and weak, women and children and other non-combatants have been withdrawn from the suburbs of Paris one after another, and the food, ammunition, and luggage have been transferred to the armory as quickly as possible, and they can be distributed by tomorrow at the latest. To every soldier in the army."

The blond girl nodded.

"Remember, digging deep trenches, burning farmland, blocking rivers, moving all villages around Paris, I will not allow the enemy to get any effective supplies on the way."

"Order!"

Gildre turned around and strode away, his resolute figure disappeared at the end of the spiral staircase.

"Dion."

"I'm here."

The young man with a handsome face bowed slightly, his eyes sparkling. He was witnessing the formation of Joan of Arc, and he couldn't wait to see the birth of a new legend.

"Your task is very important: lead a light cavalry to do everything possible to destroy the enemy's logistics, avoid fighting and harassment. Also, find me famous journalists, painters, writers, and musicians in Paris. The more The better the better, the war of public opinion itself is part of the fight."

"Understood, I'll do it now."

Dion disappeared in a single leap, and has always had a character of coming and going like the wind.

"Sanson, you organize an elite army to fight guerrilla warfare outside the city, and cover each other with Dion."

"I see."

The young man is eager to try, he thinks this is an opportunity to perform, the time has come to test himself, and make contributions to France.

After arranging all this, Jeanne let out a long breath.

The next time is particularly critical, and whether the fruits of the Great Revolution will be preserved depends on this.

"Jeanna, why did you let the members of the Constituent Assembly dance and dance here, and those arrangements... Do you have any tricks?"

On the other side, Asuna's eyes lit up and she asked curiously.

Chapter 303 Usurper

So, Miss Yuki, you are such a curious baby who likes to ask questions, how did you become a soldier.Says Hayasaka Heart.

She knew more and more why Stacia was thrown into the Bastille. There was a mismatch between her personality and her career.

However, Ai Hayasaka has never been a leader who has strict demands on her subordinates. She doesn't even care about her loyalty and only cares about her abilities, so how can she care about trivial matters.

"How can there be any tricks!"

The blond girl curled her lips, "When great powers compete, they all play their cards right. The more you try to take advantage of it, the more you will suffer."

Asuna's expectant eyes dimmed a little.

"Right……"

Joan chuckled, she was laughing at the chestnut-haired girl's expression like a disappointed child.

"What I said just now is the central idea, so just take it as a big talk and listen to it. In fact, strategy is also very important." Joan pointed to the celebrities downstairs who were having a good time downstairs. "Among them are business owners, farmers, nobles, The important officials of the court... In short, they are a group of people with huge resources. If they are not allowed to be placed under house arrest, will they run away when they know that Paris is crumbling?"

"Will."

"It's impossible for them to escape alone. They must bring their families with them and bring a large amount of property. In this era of rampant capital, if the market completely loses confidence in France and leads to a large loss of funds, I don't need to defend the city. I will stay where I am. It blew itself up."

Asuna suddenly realized, and understood everything at once.

If these people with social resources stayed here, they would give the lead and encourage the war, and they themselves would have to help Paris win the war.On the contrary, their departure will shut down the entire French economic system, and the ensuing debt crisis will be even more terrifying.

As a former rich man of the people, the traveler himself knows the virtue of capital best: during the war, he packed up his clothes and ran away, leaving a lot of chicken feathers, and re-injected capital to seize the market after the war. Speculation and profit are the eternal tone.

If you want to have a stable rear when you are preparing your troops, you must first take good care of this group of people.

The Palace of Versailles was prepared by Louis XIV, the Sun King, for the nobles to anesthetize their wine ponds and meat forests.And now, Joan of Arc used this trick on the French exploiting class as well.

"Then why do you want to transfer the people out? Isn't it better to let them stay in the city to increase morale and help production?"

Asuna loved the baby and continued to ask.

"Stiacia, it's obvious that you have studied military theory, and the benefits you listed are correct..."

"However, you didn't consider that Paris is indefensible." Joan of Arc sighed regretfully. Unstoppable. In this situation, we cannot protect civilians, they can only be safe by retreating."

There is another reason why Ai Hayasaka did not say, and that is for fame.

Liu Da'er spent half of his life in "strategic shift". He always took the people along with him.Therefore, Liu Da'er is based on benevolence and righteousness, and has a good reputation outside. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, relying on his peers to set off was a clear stream.

To be a big brother, you can not be a human being, but you can't be a person who is incapable of doing things.Fame is invisible, but it must be grasped as much as possible. The accumulation of trivial details is very important.

Joan of Arc now only occupied Paris. Although it has the richest economy and the largest population, it is far from enough to control the whole of France.These evacuated people, they are scattered all over the sky, carrying the prestige of Joan of Arc to every corner of France, and the extension of reputation will have the foundation of rule, so we must keep the fire.

It's useless to stay in Paris, it might as well be a political propaganda.

Naturally, Hayasaka Ai would not tell all of Asuna's interests in it.

"I have wanted to ask for a long time, Jeanne, why do you have to defend the city?" Asuna said anxiously, "If you think about it carefully, we can completely abandon Paris and use the open map of the whole of France to fight mobile warfare, just like First... like King Arthur, use mobile power to destroy the enemy on a vast land."

"Why, take such a risk?"

Joan didn't answer for a while, she seemed to be thinking about the answer to this question, but she didn't know what to say.

She took a deep breath, took Asuna's hand, "Follow me."

Asuna followed without thinking.

Going up the spiral staircase of the red carpet, the wind and light became more and more obvious, and then at a corner of the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, it suddenly became clear that there was only a roof passage.

Joan of Arc walked in front, hula pushed the door open and entered.

Suddenly, the strong wind stirred Asuna's chestnut hair, making the girl almost unable to open her eyes.She subconsciously put her plain hand on her forehead, squinted her eyes and took a quick glance... full of shock.

Asuna was stunned. Instead of caring about the howling wind on the roof, she stared into the distance with a pair of orange pupils, and she had a panoramic view of the whole Paris:

The streets of the Champs-Elysées extend to the horizon with the plane trees on both sides. The slightly mottled white bricks of Notre Dame de Paris reflect the sunlight. The Seine River passes through the city and divides the bustling city of Paris into two.In this era, there are no towering steel forests. From the rooftop of the Palace of Versailles, you can overlook the tens of thousands of mansions. When you look up, you can see thousands of miles of colorful clouds, the sky is high, and the green countryside dotted with Western European style.

"I almost forgot that we agreed to drink wine together."

Joan brought two goblets filled with wine, handed one to Asuna, and drank one herself.

Asuna took a sip, the sweet taste lingered between her lips and teeth, and there was also a little sour taste.

"What we are doing now is no different from the kings of previous dynasties, but everyone will not recognize Joan of Arc as the leader. The biggest reason is that I am not the real owner of the Palace of Versailles, and many people do not recognize my leadership."

"As you can see, after the "Declaration of Human Rights" was released, the response from all parts of France was mediocre, and there were very few responses. Everyone did not trust Joan of Arc, so they were all waiting and watching."

"What I'm stepping on isn't the Palace of Versailles, it's just a higher platform. It's precarious and will collapse at any moment."

Joan of Arc aftertaste of the royal wine is more sour.

"But you must have a way. Right, Jeanna?" Asuna smiled, she believed in Joan of Arc's ability.

The girl laughed out loud, full of pride and free and easy laughter.

She opened her arms, let the wind blow her long golden hair into waves, and shouted loudly, "Whoever is legitimate and who is a usurper is a joke—"

"The people of France have only one appeal: peace and development! They long for a leader who can lead the Gauls on the road to prosperity and prosperity. If they can solve the imminent crisis of survival in France, that person is legal!"

"So, you must never give up on Paris, even if the main general is dead and defends the capital."

"I need a great victory for the whole world to see who turned out to turn the tide."
