C2932 Difficulties in Confusion (1/2)

General Trochu's words suddenly made many of the representatives' hearts thump. They suddenly thought of a terrifying choice, and that was to manage the government.

Now that the foreign enemy was facing them and the council was stuck in a war of words and could not come up with a decision, would the military come together to form a military administration?

There was no precedent for this, but when the enemy army pushed their way through, a military government would emerge. Who could resist?

Once the military management government appeared, then the dictatorial situation would be even scarier than the French Emperor!

Although Napoleon III was the dictator, he was after all, the emperor who was recognized by the entire nation. No matter what, he had to consider the common interests of many forces.

What would it be like if the soldiers were in complete control of the country, or could even interfere in internal affairs?

With this precedent, the France would probably be in trouble in the future!

During the fifteen minutes of rest, the congressional staff brought in a large amount of coffee and simple sausage sandwiches.

Normally, these harsh foods were absolutely not pleasing to the eye, but now they were necessary rations to maintain physical strength and maintain the high speed operation of their brains.

General Trochu gave them fifteen minutes to eat and think, and more importantly, to quickly discuss the national policy between the various factions, trying to harmonize their voices as much as possible.

Thiers's eyes wandered around as he cast his gaze at the members of the House of Representatives. As this was a war period, the order in Paris was already in chaos, so neither the Senate nor the House of Representatives had completed their mission.

Amongst them, there were only 398 representatives from National Assembly and no more than 348 representatives from Senate. However, there were only 210 representatives from National Assembly today.

Other councilors might not be in Paris, or they might have been prevented from arriving in time by the chaos that filled the city, or some of them might have been in an accident.

This was a political major change whose world had collapsed, anything could happen.

But no matter what, the number of people in the Senate and the House of Representatives was more than half, so legally speaking, all the votes cast today were legal!

There were also benefits to having less people, and it was much easier to gather them together!

Thiers's eyes started to sweep across the Senators that he had rescued. All the Senators that had caught his eyes understood his intention, and nodded in support.

It wasn't just a favor to save his life! Most importantly, in the chaos of the city, Thiers had revealed the quality of an outstanding statesman!

The country now needs a strong statesman, and it is easier for people to accept the leadership of strong people in the chaos!

And Thiers had displayed this ability!

Although the and the House of Representatives were mutually restricted, there were tens of thousands of connections between them. There would always be a large number of members supporting him in the House of Representatives in the Senate.

As long as he controlled one Senator, he could affect the votes of at least a dozen of the representatives!

Thiers's entire plan was to completely control the council. Now it was finally time to close the net!

Just as Thiers was about to use his eyes to send a signal, Gan Bida actually walked quietly to his side.

”It seems like you have a plan?”

”Mm …” What kind of joke is this? I'm extremely worried right now, and I'm completely clueless about the future! ” Thiers hurriedly expressed his stance.
