Chapter 1045: Extraordinary party

As a European hegemon, we must consider the overall situation. It is obviously not enough to support the Russo-French war, and Spain must also support the dispatch of troops to Morocco.
Just how to support it, it was Franz's turn to have a headache. It is impossible to go directly into battle. The rules of the political game are very clear: protect your own wealth.
The world of the great powers is the most realistic. If even a few indigenous tribes can't handle it, then Spain will not be eligible to own a colony.
Material assistance, that is, there is no return to meat buns and dogs. Morocco does not interfere with the Holy Roman Empire, and there is no need to suppress it.
Substantial assistance, no matter what is given, is blood loss, so it can only encourage Dafa spiritually. Regardless of whether the Spanish government needs it or not, it was a happy decision anyway.
...
Snowflakes are falling, and the bustling Parisian streets at sunset, now only the ground is full of misery. The white sidewalk reflected a faint light.
A rich and refreshing breeze blows across the face, and a sharp icy wind blows up the falling snow, as if a sharp blade is splitting...
A carriage drove forward slowly in the wind and snow, and from time to time there was the creak of wheels pressing on the snow.
For this scene, the pedestrians on the street turned a deaf ears, coming and going in a hurry.
It's almost the night time. If you don't go home soon and fall into the hands of the Russian soldiers on duty, you will have to peel off your skin.
The window of the carriage opened suddenly, and a middle-aged man in the carriage poked his head, looked around, and suddenly sighed.
"Paris, troubled and troubled!"
Since the 19th century, France has really become the limelight. It's just that every time the scenery passed, all that was left was a mess.
As the capital, Paris is the center of tragedy. Every time suffering comes, Paris bears the brunt.
The gorgeously dressed woman patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder, and said, "Brea, don't sigh. Trust me, everything will rise.
The Russian dog has a very good nose. If they grabbed the handle, it would be a trouble for us.
Now that Paris is in their hands, it is really inappropriate to provoke them. The blood debts left by the Russians, we will settle with them one day. "
People under the eaves have to bow their heads. Under the front of the Russians, even the French nobles had to bow their heads now.
Fortunately, it is the 19th century, and the era of nobility is not over yet. When facing the nobles, the lawless Russian soldiers also had to constrain.
Of course, these benefits are limited to the surface. No one knows what will happen if you encounter secretly.
In order to survive better, the French nobles must also lower their arrogant heads and make compromises to the Russians.
It's not that no one resists, this is the end of those who resist, and it's not very good in the end. The Russian army does not kill nobles in name, but there are so many ways to kill people.
Brea nodded slightly: "Don't worry, Maria. I know what to do next. Let the Russians be proud of it for a few days."
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. The high-handed rule of the Russians not only angered the French people, but also angered these French nobles.
Most of the resistance organizations in France were secretly created by the French nobles, and even many of the leaders of the resistance were the children of the nobles themselves.
Of course, these people are mostly down-and-out nobles, except for a noble title, they are not much different from ordinary people.
The real masters of great family and business are all swallowing their breath. Even if you want revenge, it is done in secret, and on the surface it is a peaceful person.
Brea is also one of the Anfen people, just a bit more passionate than the average person. Has been working hard to drive away the Russians.
The snow was getting heavier and the carriage stopped in a manor in the suburbs. Looking around, there are no fewer than fifty carriages that only appeared in Brea's eyes.
It can be seen that this is a gathering of nobles. Playing so under the nose of the Russians, I have to admit that the French aristocracy has a big heart.
But after seeing the noble family crests on the carriage, no one would feel surprised.
With so many nobles gathered, the secret cannot be kept at all. It's better to hold a banquet with fanfare than a secret meeting.
The European aristocratic circle originally said: "The cutting continues, the rationale is still chaotic."
After the end of the European War, the Anti-French Alliance did not conduct an in-depth liquidation of these people. It was not that the governments of various countries did not want to, but that they simply could not do anything.
There is nothing to say about life and death on the battlefield. After the war, everyone is still a family. Seven aunts and eight aunts can always climb relatives.
Since they are all from their own family, they can only follow the tradition. After all, tradition is to protect the interests of the entire aristocratic group. As a vested interest, there is no need to overthrow it.
Now these guys just violated the night ban and illegal gatherings stipulated by the Russians. It is a felony to fall on ordinary people, but it is nothing to the nobles.
If people are arrested on charges of illegal gatherings, it is estimated that the European world will be fried tomorrow. Although Mao Xiong is not afraid of criticism from European public opinion, they still want aid from European countries.
Unless it proves that these guys are plotting to rebel, otherwise the Russians really can't do anything to them.
Entering the banquet hall, Brea's brow furrowed even tighter. It was a banquet, but there was not the slightest banquet atmosphere at the scene.
Those who came first got together in twos and threes and chatted about the situation. From time to time, some people sighed, as if they were desperate for the current situation.
When Brea was lost, a middle-aged man not far away suddenly waved: "Brea, come here."
Walking quickly over, Brea pretended to be suspicious and asked, "Retus, what were you talking about just now, it seemed very lively?"
Reiters replied helplessly: "Apart from the current situation, what else can make us care so much?
Recently, the Russians have become more and more excessive. If this continues, the Paris area will soon be tossed and scrapped by them.
According to the news from the docks, in the past week, the Russians have been shipping captured prisoners of war.
Although I don't know where it was sent, it is definitely not a good thing for France. We have lost a lot of young people in the European War, and the Russians are now..."
Don't worry about it. With the end of the European War, everyone has realized the importance of population.
It's just that this realization came too late. The population does not mean that growth can be achieved, especially the lack of young and strong labor force is fatal.
Before France could take a sigh of relief, the Russians began to behave again. Based on the information you have, you know that the total population of France has dropped by at least two million in the last six months.
Death to death, exile in exile, and running away, the whole of France was plunged into unprecedented chaos.
Of course, it is not entirely without benefits, and their rivals for ruling power have also been almost harmed by the Russians.
The capitalists, businessmen, intellectuals, and middle class who had troubled them in the past, because they could not withstand the scourge of the Russian army, many people chose to run away.
Paris is now dying. The shops that dare to continue to open are foreign businessmen, and local businessmen have long been afraid of looting by the Russian army.
If the family business and France were not tied together, it is estimated that these nobles would also run away. Although the Russian army will not do anything to them on the surface, secretly it is uncertain.
There are not a few nobles who have died unexpectedly recently. The deceased have a common feature, and they have shown anti-Russian tendencies in public. With such a big suspicion, it is okay to say that the Russians do not believe it.
Suspicion belongs to suspicion. There is no direct evidence to prove that the Russians got the wrong hands. Even if they want to apply to the international community, they can’t do it.
Compared to the pessimistic people, Brea is still slightly optimistic. Consolingly said: "The situation is not so bad. In addition to the bad news, there is also good news.
The Spaniards have cut their garrison by half. If the chaos in Morocco cannot be settled in the short term, it is estimated that they will continue to withdraw their troops.
Judging from the current situation, the Alliance is not prepared to increase troops to fill the gap left by the Spaniards. It seems that the southern region can take a sigh of relief. "
The French garrison of the Anti-French Alliance is borne by the French. Although the Paris government went on strike, some Russians started taxing themselves, and other countries would naturally follow suit.
It's just that compared to the straightness of the Russians, everyone still knows to be roundabout. Locals are usually appointed to act as tax officials. Unless someone is violently resisting taxes, the army is rarely deployed.
Reiters waved his hand and said: "It's good news for the time being, but these issues. For the time being, we can't worry about it.
Have you noticed how many strange faces appeared among the people who came to the banquet? "
The circle of nobles was originally small, and suddenly a few strangers were added, and it was difficult not to attract everyone's attention. After Leites reminded them, everyone glanced at the audience instantly, and finally stopped their eyes in a small corner.
But considering the purpose of this banquet, the people who reacted to it, chose not to see it tacitly.
Anti-Russia also requires skill. It doesn't matter if you play secretly, you can't leave the Russians with handle on the open.
Since the people attending this gathering are not aristocrats, they can only be members of the resistance organization.
Don't say they don't know each other, even if they are brothers, they can only pretend not to know if they hide their identity now.
When the forest grows up, there are all kinds of birds, and it is quite normal for a few legal traitors to take refuge in the Russians among the nobles.
In order to avoid being seized by the Russians, when discussing countermeasures, everyone always speaks verbally and never leaves any paperwork.
There is only one explanation for members of the resistance organization to appear grandiosely here, and that is that the patience of the big men towards the Russian army has reached its limit.
