Fox of France

Chapter 76: , Love peace carrot shreds (3)

  According to the negotiated routine, Robespierre began to publish articles in many newspapers, violently attacking Lafayette who was plotting to start war in order to undermine democracy and become a dictator. He said that the people of Paris and even the entire French people should keep their eyes open, be vigilant, and thwart the conspiracy of this careerist.

"If Lafayette's conspiracy is really allowed to succeed, France will fall into a more miserable situation than the dictatorship of the feudal emperors in the past. Because no matter what, Louis XVI is still an orthodox king, but Rafa What is Yate? It’s just a tyrant! Then the blood shed by the people in the struggles in the Bastille will be cheap for this tyrant. This is intolerable!-Well, even though Robespierre is a tyrant! The party is chaotic, but his remarks on Lafayette's exposure are still sharp." Count Rodolf looked at the article in his hand and smiled at a young man next to him, "We will publish this article in " "Orthodox France" above it."

   "Count, publishing such a rebellious article on "Orthodox France", will it harm us..." the young man asked hesitantly.

"So, Phoebe, I will trouble you with this matter. Give this article with an editor's guide. We must criticize the fallacies and trespasses in this article so that people can recognize the true colors of the rebellion, right? These places where a little truth is told must also be commented-is it not good to be able to use an article to expose the two kinds of rebellion?" Count Rodolph laughed.

   "You are right, Mr. Earl." Phoebes replied, "I hope that one day, we can hang all these rebellions on street lamp poles!"

"There will be one day, Phoebus, don’t worry, trust me, there will be one day. Everything will be fine, there will be one day when the Jacobins and Rafis will be hung from the street light poles. Stink! But for this day, we must start working immediately."

  ……

"The Austrians dared to threaten the great France. This is absolutely an intolerable offense to the majesty of France. Those Austrians probably forgot what France’s bayonet and army boots look like. I don’t understand. When it was insulting, there was actually a gangster who jumped out to call for peace..." Robespierre couldn't help laughing after reading this.

   "Mr. Robespierre, you can still laugh when others are slandering your reputation like this." Saint Just said angrily.

"Reputation? Robespierre's reputation?" Malahha on one side laughed, "What reputation does Robespierre actually have? Is Robespierre's reputation not long ago a rebellion, a gangster? I think in the text just now, he is very polite to him. If I scold him, it will definitely not be the only way."

   "Mr. Mara, this is not an article in a newspaper belonging to the Royal Party, nor is it an article in a newspaper of the Lafite Club. This is an article in those centrist newspapers." Saint Just said.

   "It's the articles of those who ride on the wall." Guzman interrupted. Guzman is Mara’s best friend, just as Saint Just as Robespierre’s best friend.

   "Yes," Saint Just said, "but many times we need to let these wall mounters stand on our side."

"Don't dream!" Mara said, "Let me guess, what is the name of the newspaper in your hand? It should be "Paris Business"? Its owner is Clavière, the banker, right? How can a banker not like war? Since Robespierre openly opposed war, to be honest, they are so kind to him, it is too gentle. In addition, you are not asking us to propose Do you limit food prices or anything? If we raise these, we will be even more scolded."

   "This is the necessary price, Louis." Robespierre said calmly, "The key now is how Lafayette is prepared to react."

  ……

  How would Lafayette react? In fact, Lafayette has not responded yet. Lafayette has too many things to deal with now, and it is too late to react to it. Moreover, Lafayette discovered that since Robespierre attacked him and tried to start a war, it seemed that quite a few centrists were helping him fight back against Robespierre, so he felt that he should slow down first. Look at everyone's reactions, and then respond.

   Lafayette slowed for another two days like this. After two days of slowing, he suddenly realized that things seemed a little bit wrong. Because he discovered that many people are indeed attacking Robespierre, but they attacked Robespierre because they were too weak, and they were afraid of the threat of force from a Catholic country like Austria. I don’t know that France is Catholic. Is the best player in the country? Don’t you know that France is best at hanging against Catholic countries? What a shame to the French!

   What Lafayette is most concerned about is that he did not become a military dictator and his intention to destroy democracy, but no one mentioned it at all. Not only did they not mention it, but some people said that if they can defeat foreign enemies, there is nothing wrong with having a Caesar.

   But Lafayette knew that these people said "It's okay to have a Caesar", but that was just a way to cheat themselves to support the war. If you really want to be Caesar, I'm afraid that those who say so now might cut him from behind immediately, and then stand next to his corpse and publish an extremely wonderful article with tears in his eyes. For "I love Caesar, but I love Rome more"-ah, wrong, it should be a speech "I love Lafayette, but I love France more", and then turn France into a republic.

   And Lafayette also knows that the current state of the army is not very good, and it is not time to fight. In a sense, Lafayette does need war, but unlike the royal party, what he needs is a war of victory, a war of preparations. If this discussion is too heated, Congress will immediately The decision to declare war was passed, but it was not good for him.

   "This situation must stop immediately!" Lafayette knew the importance of public opinion, because when he was in North America, he knew that the preparation and organization of war in North America were inseparable from local public opinion.

   So the media under the control of Lafayette began to act. On the one hand, they attacked Robespierre, but on the other hand, they also preached to people that although France never feared war, "peace will never reach the time of fundamental despair, and will never give up peace; sacrifice until the last moment, never Lightly sacrifice". And Lafayette never had the idea of ​​being a military dictator.

   Although Lafayette hated Robespierre more and more, in fact, at least on the issue of delaying the war, Lafayette also became an ally of Robespierre.

   This makes Lafayette and Robespierre's reputation among the centrists dropped a lot. This is normal, because the group of centrists is actually the group of people called Girondists in later generations. Most of them are big businessmen and big bankers. For them, war is an opportunity to make a fortune. As long as the final result is not subjugation of the country and species, war is not a bad thing for them. Therefore, those who clearly oppose war are blocking their way of making money.

   But Lafayette also knew that war was inevitable. Even the people of the Feiyang Club are actually looking forward to the war in their hearts. Lafayette may really not want to be a military dictator, but the reason why many people in the Feyang Club are willing to follow him is actually expecting him to become a military dictator like Caesar. If Lafayette's performance disappoints them too much, then they may also...

  The banker Clavière is receiving a guest in his house on Serfandoni Street. The guest was also called Joseph, but he believed in Fouchie.

   "Thank you, Mr. Fouché." Clavière said, "The information you provided me is very important to me. Your Excellency Lafayette is really..."

   Having said that, Clavier shook his head ~www.readwn.com~ but did not continue to say anything further.

   "Mr. Lafayette is too concerned about the overall situation." Foucher said.

"But we don’t need to maintain the overall situation as it is today. I need a change in the overall situation. Mr. Fouché, don’t know how you can help me? Everyone knows that I am an ethical person and never Treat anyone who helped me badly." Clavière looked at Fouché and said slowly.

   "Do you need war?" Foucher asked.

   "Yes." Clavier replied briefly.

"But I heard that because of possible wars and turbulent situations, some of your bank loans are difficult to recover. So it is very likely that there is no guarantee that your bank deposit certificates can be withdrawn normally." Foucher asked again .

   "Ah, did you hear this rumor too?" Claviere smiled, "So I need something more turbulent as soon as possible."

   "It's a bit difficult, but your washing action does not require such a big turmoil." Fuxie said, "In addition, I can help you and another friend make a line..."

  ……

   This morning, Joseph went to work as usual, but on the way he happened to ran into Kano with a sad face.

   "What's wrong, Lazar, you seem to have something on your mind?" Joseph asked.

   "Joseph, which bank does your money deposit?" Kano asked rhetorically.

   "Some are in Claviere Bank, and some are in..." Joseph replied.

"Oh!" Cano said, "Have you heard, Claviere Bank just announced that because the investment and agricultural money was affected by the rebellion in other provinces, it was difficult to recover for a while, so they would temporarily stop the withdrawal business—— In other words, you can't withdraw money from them if you hold the deposit receipt!"
