Fox of France

Chapter 92: , Mutiny (3)

Boronville actually knew the importance of middle and low-level officers in an army. But his mission is not to command the army, but to bring the traitor Di Mourier back to Paris to be tried by the people. If Di Mourier escapes in this way, no matter what, it means that his mission has failed. Although he didn't wear a strange watch in his hand, and there was no voice that others couldn't hear to remind him how many points would be deducted if the mission failed, and if the points were insufficient, he would directly obliterate something. But in fact, the consequences of mission failure may not be much different from this.

However, the short major in front of him now does not seem to care much about whether he can catch the traitor Di Mourier. From his words, he seems to care more about the safety of the **** middle-level officers. . Boronville knew that the consideration of the short officer was more in line with France's overall interests. But even if he wants to take care of the overall situation, it should be him Boronville. A small major ran out to take care of the overall situation, so he didn't put himself as a special agent in his eyes. So although not long ago, it was this dwarf officer who led the soldiers to rescue himself, but Boronville’s gratitude for him was almost wiped out in such a moment, and he even felt that, This short man is not firm enough for the revolution. At the same time, he also found a very nice adjective for his behavior, called "iron-faced selflessness".

However, even if Boronville thought about "selflessness", he did not have the capital of "selflessness" at this time. Because the soldiers around him were also not firm in the revolution, they did not stand on the side of himself who represented Paris, but on the side of the dwarf Bonaparte.

The messenger of the traitor went back, and the traitors discussed there for a while. Then the messenger returned.

"The general agrees with your suggestion." Hankson said, "but he also has some requirements."

"Say it." Napoleon said.

"The general asked all your ambushes to come out. So that we can be sure that you did not set up ambushes in front." Hankson said, "Also, the general does not agree to hand over the Duke of Chartres to you as a hostage, but he proposed that he be himself This hostage."

Napoleon thought for a while and replied: "I can call out all the big ambushes, but Du Mourier must come to me first. After all, Du Mourier should know that we have no advantage in numbers. If not The advantage of the ambush, if you rush directly, it will be very unfavorable to us. Well, you can bring my words to Du Mourier, this is the last condition, if he agrees, let him come by himself. If he doesn’t Agree, then use cannons and bayonets to solve the problem."

Hankson immediately turned back. He must save time, maybe the chase will arrive soon.

In a short while, Hankson and Di Mourier came over, and when they were among Napoleon’s soldiers, Napoleon called out all the soldiers who were in ambush, and after the other party released half of the hostages, he walked away. the way. The rebels quickly passed the ambush circle, then stopped, preparing for the second phase of the hostage exchange.

"We can't let this traitor go!" Boronville said suddenly, "We should send this traitor back to Paris and hang him on a street light pole!"

"There will be many people who died for me." Di Mourier said.

"They sacrificed for the revolution, and the motherland remembers them." Boronville said.

"No," Napoleon said. "They are our brothers. We can't abandon them at any time."

Then he glanced at Di Mourier and said: "The lives of 10,000 traitors are not as good as a soldier loyal to the revolution."

"Major Bonaparte, obey orders!" Boronville shouted.

"Sir, I forgive me for not being able to obey your orders before I get a valid document proving your identity." Napoleon glanced at the commissioner and said calmly.

When Boronville and others were rescued, their identification was not on them, so Napoleon used this as an excuse to reject him.

"Okay, very good!" Boronville's face was pale.

"Hahahaha!" Dimurière laughed loudly. He pointed to Napoleon and then pointed his finger at Boronville: "Bonaparte, have you ever thought that you tried your best to save such a thing? ? Are you fighting for something like this?"

Then he said with a straight face: "Bonaparte, you are from a nobleman and you are so talented. Why do you want to mix with something like this? Let's go with us. With your brothers' talents, you will surely become great men. ."

His words were quite sincere, as if he did not blame the Bonaparte brothers for ruining his serious affairs. Of course, Napoleon would not believe his nonsense. Napoleon has never seen a guy who changes his face as soon as he turns his back.

"We are all fighting for revolutionary ideals." Napoleon said, "Even if we have disputes and different opinions, it is for France. We will not betray the French motherland."

Nowadays, Napoleon's ability to talk nonsense with his eyes open has also improved a lot, at least now when he speaks the words "French motherland", he is still very smooth.

"French motherland?" Di Mourier looked at Napoleon with a mocking look. "You are a Corsican. Your father was even a rebellious person. You told me that you love France?"

"Corsica is the indivisible and inherent territory of France since ancient times. Every Corsican is a citizen of the French Republic. He has the sacred duty to maintain the unity of the motherland." Napoleon said without hesitation.

"Bonaparte, you will succeed!" Di Mourier said finally.

The subsequent exchange of hostages also went smoothly. Although Boronville wanted to destroy all this, he was ignored by almost everyone. Of course, this also made him hate Napoleon, who had saved him, even more hatred than Di Mourier.

By quelling the rebellion, Joseph and Napoleon gained control of the army at least temporarily. Several special commissioners who failed to complete the task confirmed their identities (Du Mourier walked in a hurry and did not take away their identity letters.) But they did not successfully obtain command. In fact, because they know almost nothing about the affairs of the army, and Joseph intimidated them, saying that after Di Mourier defected, the Austrian army learned about the reality of our army, and it is very likely that they will launch against us in a very short time. After the attack, our army will face a fierce battle, these special commissioners all hope to return to Paris before a new round of defeat. Of course, they would not say that. Their reason is naturally: "We must promptly inform Paris of the severe situation here, and let them prepare to support you immediately. In addition, because of the destruction of that damned traitor, your military needs are extremely short, and these circumstances must also Report to the National Assembly immediately."

As a result, the special commissioner left soon.

Of course, these special commissioners are not without anything that can be taken back for business. Because of his rush, the Duke of Chartres forgot an important letter in the barracks. This letter is from Philip Equality to his son. This letter was quickly discovered, and it has now become the most important harvest for these special commissioners. Although they failed to capture the traitor Di Mourier back, at least they succeeded in spotting another traitor in the revolutionary ranks. Is this a credit anyway?

The Duke of Chartres fled into the Austrian barracks in shock, and stayed here temporarily. General Coble still had a lot to learn from them. They stayed with General Coble for three full days before they were able to leave the barracks. The Duke of Chartres knew that the royal party in exile probably hated itself no less than the hatred of those "rebels." So he did not intend to stay in Austria, where there are royal parties everywhere, but to leave for England. It was only on this day that he discovered ~www.readwn.com~ that he seemed to have lost the letter his father had given him in the French army camp! At this time, the special commissioners had returned to Paris, reported to the National Assembly of Di Mourier's rebellion, and publicly showed evidence that the Duke of Orleans participated in the rebellion and tried to subvert the Republic and restore the monarchy.

After the Duke of Orleans wrote the letter to his son, he also made some preparations for escape, ready to escape when things failed. However, because he had not been alerted before, he was caught off guard and even held a meeting directly in the parliament. He was arrested at the scene.

Di Mourier was originally a member of the Brisso faction, and was once one of the leaders of the Brisso faction. He became a traitor, and the mountain faction naturally opened fire and attacked the Brisso faction. The Brissots naturally wanted to fight back, and their method of counterattack was naturally to catch the Duke of Orleans as the mountain group, and the mountain group also produced traitors. So in the parliament, members of the two factions attacked each other one after another, calling each other a traitor to the Republic.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dandong once again proposed the Revolutionary Court and the National Salvation Committee. This time, the Brissots no longer dared to obstruct the bill, because at this time, opposing such a bill would be tantamount to confirming the accusation of the opponent that he was a traitor to the Republic. So the most important institution in the French Revolution-the National Salvation Committee was established, and quickly became the true power core of the French Republic.

Dandong naturally entered this committee, and the military is indispensable for national salvation. Kano was also elected to the National Salvation Committee and became a member of the military.

The Revolutionary Court also swiftly started up, and then the guillotine was erected again, and this time, it cut off Philip Equality’s head.
