C3032 The World of strategist (1/2)
The old general felt dizzy. His blood pressure had risen to two hundred. If possible, he wanted to pull out a gun and kill this bastard.
He used to think that the Emperor was ruthless in suppressing these leftists, but now that it was his turn to stand on stage, these people started to mock him. Only then did he realize how disgusting this feeling was.
Napoleon III was also forced to do this. If he did not kill, he would not be able to solve the problem.
However, there were many contradictions that could not be adjusted. There were many people who could not communicate. There were also many obstacles that there was no way out!
Trochu forced himself to calm down, gritted his teeth and said, ”I will definitely fight, but as a professional soldier, I must take responsibility for the lives of the soldiers …”
”I will only give the order to attack when the probability of victory is the highest …” Otherwise, I would rather go behind my back and not attack blindly! ”
Luo Shenfuer coldly snorted. Do whatever you want, but remember, even if the people can support you, they can still trample you off the stage! ”Don't make a mistake...”
With that, Luo Shenfuer turned and left.
The left and right faction had completely broken off tonight. That night, at the night meeting of the Montmartre plateau's committee, they had made the decision to enlarge the army by another twelve battalions in merely three hours. Moreover, they did not even report this decision to General Trochu.
The entire city of Paris had a sleepless night. The left and right factions were fighting amongst each other openly while the royalist party had long escaped to Versailles City.
The citizens of the city celebrated the victory of the Orleans in a frenzy, while many other schemers were hiding in the corners, engaging in some unknown secret business.
No one knew that on this most dangerous night, Thiers had even disguised himself to travel out of the city secretly in Eugene's and Andrew's private carriage.
Inside the Steel plant outside the city, Thiers met with Sima Yun and General Luo Huo who were stationed at the north side of the city. The short half an hour meeting allowed Thiers to obtain a large amount of information.
When Thiers returned to the city, he was in a state of shock all the way. The speed at which the situation changed was so fast that he didn't dare imagine it, and when he saw the farce inside the city, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
”Smile, and make a fuss. There is only this last night of your happiness left …”
”I'm not going to sleep tonight. Take me to see Sutterloman and the other councilors... At this critical juncture, we must first preserve our lives and peacefully wait for a great change! ”
There was also Bismark and Lao Maoqi who were sleepless too. The two big shots of the Prussian army listened to the ruckus that could faintly be heard from the Paris City, and then looked at the latest telegram on the table. The two of them laughed helplessly.
”Let these Parisians have their last night of happiness. It's their turn to cry tomorrow … Inform the military supply department to speed up the delivery of cannons, I think Trochu will break out of Orleans's encirclement very soon … ”
”Once the news of the Mace City spreads, the French people's emotions would rise to an unimaginable level. At that time, even if Trochu does not fight, he would still have to fight.”
Lao Maoqi quietly filled his pipe with tobacco, and only after a long time did he speak, ”The leader is truly unfathomably deep, I really want to know how his brain grows. A plan to activate the royalist party can already reverse the situation …”
”Everyone thought that we, Prussia, would win for sure. But, how would they know that we are suffering …”
On the surface, it looked as if the entire Europe was shaken. Everyone looked at Prussia with fear, but only the people in the inner circle knew that Prussian army was already on top of a stilts and could not be stepped on.
