2695 Paris protests
The Garden of the Duille Palace has become a sea of all negative emotions!
The simple-dressed woman knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "We are defeated, we are defeated, shame, how can we defeat the Prussians defeat? What happened to the invincible Bonaparte family?"
"The empire has traitors! The failure must be the aristocrats who do not know the country and nation colluded with the barbarians from the north to stolen the country! This must be like this..." The workers' leaders stood on the wooden boxes and roared angrily, and hundreds of people below followed him and shouted slogans.
The republicans spared no effort to jump up and down, "Reform! Only by reforming the national system can we save the defeat! Let the emperor return to power in the parliament and implement a comprehensive constitutional monarchy!"
"We must restrain the imperial power when amending the constitution!"
Most of these republicans are university professors, scholars and opposition politicians. They have a high reputation and countless fans shout slogans to support them.
"Amended the Constitution! Return to the Council!"
Some people even shouted the slogan of restoring the Republic, and these radicals jumped up and down among the crowd, "Restore the Republic! We don't need the emperor, we have to control the army ourselves!"
"It is the only possibility of victory for the people's army to fight against the Prussians!"
In the chaotic garden, 50,000 or 60,000 people were already crowded by twelve o'clock noon, and the darkness was so dark that it could not be seen at a glance. The slogans were trembling one after another, and the glass of the palace was buzzing.
Montauban could no longer sit still. He went to the front line to lead the guards to guard the guards. The cavalry lined up in long queues to cut the crowds and the palace, and even pulled out barbed wire at the intersection. The infantry behind them held rifles and bayonets, shining in the sun.
The hot summer sun makes the whole city look like an oven, everyone is sweating profusely, and hundreds of people have fainted from heatstroke in the past morning.
But no matter how hot the weather is, it cannot stop the enthusiastic patriotic enthusiasm of these people. They tore open the buttons of their shirts and open their arms, allowing the smell of sweat to spread in the air.
They shouted the slogan of unity under the leadership of countless leaders!
"Punish the traitors severely! Punish the traitors severely!" They can't count the names of who are the traitors!
"Restore the Republic! Restore the Republic!" These republicans have found a great opportunity!
"Long live the proletariat! Establish a proletarian regime! Long live!" The workers' leaders shouted at the top of their lungs. The loudest sound they received was the most. The working class in Paris was the absolute main force in today's demonstrations.
The queen had already walked out of the initial horror. She looked at everything below and said lightly, "There is nothing scary, it's just a pile of loose sand! The workers leftists, Republicans, and nationalists without political goals..."
"Their demands are not unified. Don't look at the trouble now, but they will disperse after dark!"
The queen said this to Thier, and the MP who forced the palace never left!
After hearing the queen's words of a harsh and cowardly, he smiled faintly, "Your Highness, you may really underestimate the strong wishes of the people this time..."
"To be honest, France has not suffered any failure in many years? It has never been so painful since Waterloo. National emotions are really unbearable!"
Thiers said nothing wrong. Since the Paris parade of 500,000 people, the chaos has been replaced by a strange order since the hottest noon.
Five hundred thousand people took to the streets because of the news of their defeat, and the Duille Palace is the center of all parades. The garden now gathers more than 30,000 people, and the Champs Elysees behind them is crowded with as many as 100,000 people.
It was difficult to achieve a unified opinion on the march of such a scale, but today it was strange. After one o'clock in the afternoon, the slogans on the street gradually became unified.
The speakers in countless crowds suddenly changed their tone and began to speak similar agitation!
"The French people! The first task at this moment is to drive the invaders out of the country, and everything else can be discussed in the long run!"
"People, our fellow citizens are bleeding, our women are being tragically ravaged, and our children are tragically dying under the enemy's butcher knife!"
"We have only one thing to do now, and that is to defeat the invaders!"
"I suggest that the National Self-Defense Force be formed immediately!"
"Paris citizens! Let us take up our weapons and defend our homes!"
"Organize 500,000 National Self-Defense Forces! Let the government provide us with guns, ammunition and numbers!"
"The children of France! Let's fight to the last drop of blood! 500,000... to build an army!"
The whole city suddenly became a sensation. The two exciting words Jianjun and 500,000 immediately made everyone crazy. They seemed to have found a life-saving straw to solve all problems, and everyone shouted wildly!
"Build an army! Build an army! Build an army..."
"Five hundred thousand! Five hundred thousand! Five hundred thousand..."
People raised their fists to their heads. Every time they shouted in unison, the iron fists of 500,000 people wanted to pierce the sky. Gradually, there was no other sound in the whole of Paris. People gathered together just shouted slogans and put pressure on them!
"Build an army! Build an army! Build a national self-defense force!"
"Recruitment! Recruitment! Recruitment for 500,000!"
Now Queen Eugenie couldn't stand it anymore. When the 500,000 people were no longer in chaos but put pressure on the government with a unified voice, even emperors and generals could not resist such power.
The queen could see the glass window shaking rhythmically in the sound of slogans. She suddenly turned around and looked at Tier and gritted her teeth and said, "Damn it, you republicans are actually united with the workers' leftists? What a nest of snakes and rats!"
Tier was not angry at all. He just lowered his head and said politely, "Dear Queen, we have no factional differences at this moment..."
"At this moment we only have a unified identity...French people!"
"At this moment, nation is more than anything else!"
"Hahaha..." The queen laughed wildly, "Okay, okay, nation is more than anything else?"
"What do you know? What do you know? You don't know the empire's current predicament, nor do you know the empire's financial, diplomatic, armament and other difficulties!"
"You only know that you have to... your greedy appetite wants everything, but you have no achievements in solving the problem!"
"Can you win a battle by forming a 500,000 army? The untrained Inter Milan Self-Defense Force will die when encountering the regular Prussian army!"
"Send death, die, you are taking human lives as a joke! Even the veterans of the empire are defeated. Do you still want workers and farmers to go up and be cannon fodder?"
Listening to the queen's scolding, Tier was not angry, just the faint smile, "Queen... You don't have to worry about this matter... People are willing to be cannon fodder, what's the solution?"
"Because they are patriotic..."
"You..." Queen Eugenie directly made Thierl's words choked and silenced!
Chapter completed!
