Chapter 2322 Petermnnchen (4)

There is a famous tourist attraction in Italy, the Leaning Tower of Pisa. In fact, it was originally a bell tower rather than a tower. It was designed and built according to the plumb weight. However, when it was repaired to the third floor, the engineer suddenly found that the tower was skewed by 0.2 degrees, and then stopped working. up.

In fact, Pisa was a lake a long time ago, and the "land" of the entire area was formed by sedimentation. The foundation of the project was not selected properly, resulting in the building's own weight being too high, and the soil layer was soft and tilted.

It is reasonable to say that if the construction is stopped at this time, the foundation can be strengthened, or it can be demolished and restarted, but the designer quit, and the project will be delayed for nearly two hundred years.

Then a new designer was used, because the tower was inclined to the south, he deliberately built the superstructure of the clock tower in the opposite direction to compensate for the center of gravity deviation that occurred.

When the seventh floor was repaired, another problem occurred. This time, the tower body was no longer plumb, but shifted to the north. The entire tower body was no longer straight, but bow-shaped. After another century of shutdown , The last correction was made when the top was capped, but the tower was still not corrected, so the bell tower was always in danger of collapsing, so that it never sounded.

This is the ability of the Italians to "distort the facts". The tower has been crooked for so many years and has become a scenic spot.

Before the signing of the "Campo Formio Peace Treaty", there was a coup d'etat in Fruity Moon. Coincidentally, the main characters at that time were still a few people, Pisceglou, Napoleon and Augereau, who were different from the Portuguese Moon riots. However, the royalist party has realized that it is difficult to achieve restoration by force, so it turned to "civilized" means. In the election campaign, Pishiglu finally became the speaker of the 500-member parliament with 387 votes to 57 votes.

The Directorate at that time was very unpopular, and the MPs elected in Paris, Lyon, Marseilles and other places were quite different from the expectations of the Directorate. Even if the Royalist Party wanted to restore the monarchy, the people were happy to help.

The republicans knew that they were guilty of regicide, and it would be difficult for them to die well if they were restored, while the constitutionalists were in the middle, and they pinned their hopes on Jean-Victor Moreau.

Moreau only admitted that he would not let blood and blood fly on the guillotine again, but Pishigru and Napoleon were both people who fought in street fighting. In the words of the governors quoted by Bonaparte, they are two wolves, the best Let them fight each other. Napoleon is no longer the general who showed his talents in the Battle of Toulon at this time. He handed over the "job" of visiting the scene and directing the street fighting to Augereau.

Originally, Pischglu won the election, and it was the republicans who were in constant anxiety, but on June 23, 1797, a member of parliament suddenly jumped out and asked why the Directory failed to send troops to Italy and wanted to fight with Austria. The principality concludes a shameful treaty?

The congressman also knew that the mistakes of Italy had nothing to do with Napoleon, but the letter of questioning was in the hands of Bonaparte in Italy.

What's going on here? No one knows that Napoleon thought he was "gentle and soft" and "tolerant and humble", but he would never give up when "bullying" came to him. He wrote a sharply worded reply to the Directorate, "I am in Italy. Soldier, who made military achievements for the country, now not only has no merit, but he still wants to punish me? The accusation of criticizing me is really shameless, and the intention is extremely sinister. It is really unbearable for me. Resignation, of course, was just talk, he didn't write the resignation letter.

At that time, there were rumors that members of the Clichy Club stabbed Napoleon with a "dagger". Napoleon, who was furious, wrote a letter with a short sword, saying that although this was not the dagger used to assassinate him, it could be used as an example.

Originally, the constitutionalists mixed with many royalists, and the governors of the republicans strictly guarded against the restoration of the royalists, especially the new parliament issued many decrees beneficial to the nobles in exile. Once they make a comeback, Not a single Directorate official could escape.

From the very beginning, the governor did not trust Pishigru. Although they also did not believe in Napoleon, Moreau had always been ambiguous and noncommittal. In this case, they could only use Napoleon. He mobilized in advance before the war.

Soldiers, right now, our country is experiencing misfortune and tribulations, and I believe everyone feels deeply. But what I want to say is that our country will definitely get out of misfortune and say goodbye to suffering! We fought back the European anti-French coalition together. We will continue to serve our country! Although we are outside the mountains, we still care about the country. If the people need us, we will appear in front of them like lightning, help them, support them, uphold the constitution, and defend the fruits of the republic.

Soldiers, the Governor's Mansion is a government that upholds fate and upholds the Constitution. We must completely wipe out the royalists! Soldiers, take courage, take courage! We swear before the spirits of those who died heroically for the cause of freedom that we will inherit their legacy and usher in a new era. We will launch a war and vow to wipe out the enemies of the Republic, and we will never condone it!

This speech was later distributed, not only the generals, but even the soldiers were asked to sign.

In a sense, this is no longer a speech, but a civil war declaration similar to the "Declaration of Independence", and all soldiers who signed it will be held accountable. At that time, the Directorate had not decided to launch a civil war immediately, that is, "deterrence". At this point, they had to temporarily change generals. Although Osh was not as good as Bonaparte in all aspects, he was loyal to the Directorate, so Ballas replaced him. Appointed the Minister of Defense and appointed Osh as the new Minister of Defense. On July 17, 1797, Hosh led the vanguard of the Rhine Army to Paris, threatening to launch a naval battle to attack Great Britain, but when he walked through the streets of Paris, the citizens begged him, "Help us, we are surrounded, everywhere It's all cannon, we can't go anywhere."

It turned out that the governors had broken the appointment. They were supposed to cooperate with the outside world to launch a decisive battle. Osh was the only one who came. Osh turned around and died shortly after returning to the Yin Army. According to rumors, it was poisoned by the royalist party. Later, the governor government An autopsy was also done, but nothing was found.

On this point, Bonaparte believed that the Directory government was not lying, because they really couldn’t find out because of their “incompetence”. Prior to this, Napoleon sent his adjutant Shangman back to Paris to find out the news. At that time, Ballas and Karnot were arguing across the table. .

Barras scolded Karno: "You little man, you are covered with lice all over your body, and you have abscesses on your face."

Karno scolded Ballas: "You have to remember that if you scold me now, I will definitely repay you several times in the future."

Ballas yelled angrily, "I'm going to kill you!"

Shangman's information truthfully recorded this scene, and advised Napoleon not to get involved in this muddy water. In the end, he hesitated again and again, and did not go in person. As mentioned earlier, he let Augereau and Bernadotte go.

Augereau has a "straightforward" personality, and he was the first to dissatisfy Bonaparte after crossing the Alps, and was finally threatened by Napoleon to cut off his head to reduce this gap.

This time, it was also thanks to Augereau that he led the guards to the bell tower without orders, and arrived before the rest of Pischglu's men were about to blow up the tower.

After the Guoyue coup, Pisheglu and more than 130 royalists had been exiled to French Guiana, where the Jacobins were once exiled. Unexpectedly, he could return to Europe alive.

There should be 7 assassins, but there are only 6 corpses, and one person escaped.

No one knows how he did it, because there was only one way up and down the tower at that time, and it was impossible for a normal person to survive by jumping from the hole blasted out by the strange bird. Anyway, Napoleon was sending people to search for it with all his strength, and the goal was the north. "free cities" such as Hamburg.

"Calm down?"

Maybe he thought he was telling a joke, though she did laugh when Barras and Karno scolded him, he asked her.

"The means of drug testing are limited now, so don't worry." She said softly.

"I asked you if you calmed down, what are you talking about?" He lay down in a comfortable position, "What's for dinner?"

She still glared at him.

"I'm not worried about those six people, but about André, the waiter who died at the ball," said Bonaparte. "The cause of his death has not yet been ascertained."

"Didn't you say he..."

Bonaparte shook his head.

"It seems that there are not only a lot of trash in the Directory." He said impatiently.

"Anyway, you don't eat seafood. I remember you got sick in Ostend."

"I'd like to have Wieners and fried chicken." He started ordering.

"good……"

He got up, kissed her on the cheek, and then went out in good spirits. Not long after, there was the sound of "crashing" horseshoes outside the door.

She sat there for a while, shook her head, and looked up to find Fei Lier peeking at the door.

"Come here." Georgiana beckoned to her.

Feilier quickly walked over and sat down beside Georgiana.

"What did the First Consul just tell you?"

Phillip shook her head.

"You have to remember, it is a very important document, if you feel that you cannot bear this responsibility..."

"I can." Ferri said immediately.

"If you have this determination, it also depends on whether you have the ability." Georgiana changed her words and said, "You need to find a credible person to protect you."

"Who?" Phillip asked.

"It depends on how you choose. Are you choosing the knight to protect you now, or do you want me to appoint you?"

Phillip was silent.

"Think slowly." Georgiana patted her hand. "Mr. Farron is gone?"

"He's still downstairs."

So Georgiana stood up, and as she walked she thought that maybe Ferrile needed a suitcase like Matilda's.
