C2848 A Warlord with a Bulls Breath (1/2)

Napoleon. Why is Bonaparte a cow? Was he really just a military genius?

Actually, everyone had misunderstood him, Napoleon. Bonaparte was a successful reformer, and then a good military commander!

He was keenly aware of the surging power produced by the people during the Great Revolution. It was the hope of those people at the bottom, who had suppressed the world for a thousand years, to change their current situation.

Whether you like it or not, this repressed power is eternal!

What had ignited these powers and made them awaken? Come to think of it, there are only the following points.

The first was the birth of Martin Luther's Protestantism, which had broken the Catholic Church's dominance, giving the people a choice, allowing them to see through the corruption and decline of the Holy See, and further weakening the power of theology to control the hearts of the people.

The second was the development of the natural sciences and the Renaissance. People finally had another way to explain the various living things in the world, and even the universe. Many ancient scams were exposed, and people started to reflect on it. Is it really irreversible?

The third is the large movement of people caused by the discovery of geography, which is an important condition for the integration of many cultures and the emergence of new ideas.

Louis XIV, the French king of the Sun, was a French monarch of the same era as Kang Xi. He was obsessed with Chinese culture.

It was at that time that Confucianism entered France, and the system of the imperial examination was gradually understood by the French ideological community!

This was a major breakthrough. In the context of that era, French intellectuals were the first to understand that in distant China, anyone had hope and could change his or her class.

Even if you are the poorest of the lowly commoners, as long as you work hard, there is still a one in a million chance that you will become a peerless person and change your class!

Actually, class change was not that rare. Although not every scholar in China could become a first or second rank official, the door to class change was not as narrow as they had imagined.

Many of the poor kids, through their studies and examinations, could easily become a government official. Although their positions were small, it was a huge change compared to his previous position in society!

The French intellectuals were infatuated with this unique pattern. At the same time, this thought of ”class is transformable” began to spread throughout the France.

Of course, there was a fourth point that triggered the great revolution, which was the rise of the bourgeoisie. The power of money became increasingly stronger, and the new bourgeoisie also hoped to fight for benefits from the feudal aristocracy.

As the multiple social backgrounds came together, there was a loud bang! The French Revolution erupted, and when everyone's voice, as if they were all born with equal status, resounded through the entire continent, one could only imagine how terrified all the feudal emperors in Europe were at that time.

All the emperors had united together to strangle the First Republic of France, but they had truly underestimated the revolutionary enthusiasm that had been suppressed by the commoners for a thousand years.

Once the door to the dream was opened, when the people outside saw how wonderful it was to be on the other side of the dream, it wouldn't be so simple to close the door.

This kind of power was the trend of the times, whoever went with the flow died!

It was very clear that Na Polunbonaba was a very sensitive person to this kind of trend. Deep down, he was a Reformist and they belonged to the same type of person.

This kind of person was a rare type among politicians, and would usually only be born in the era of the great social upheavals, the major change's era, this kind of person was the darling of this era!

Na Polunbonaba used military means to help the Republic defeat the enemy's encirclement and annihilation time and time again, and built up his prestige amidst the war.

Suppressing the Royal Party would allow him to be promoted to brigadier general of the army and commander of the Paris garrison!
