Chapter 66: , Escape (1)

　　 Because of the guard and fear of Mirabeau, the king and queen did not follow his advice. From the perspective of their engagement, this may be their best opportunity.
　　 Both Mirabeau and Lafayette reminded the king and queen on the same thing, that is, their relatives are unreliable. When choosing a place to escape, Mirabe emphasized that the king must not run too close to the border. One of the reasons for this is to avoid harm to the king by those who shed the same blood as the king.
　　 There are also people who think that the king and queen did not have the suggestion of taking Namirapo. In addition to their distrust of him, there is another reason, that is, they are not willing to accept constitutionalism at all. To flee to Lyon, Lyon's strength alone is not enough to fight against Paris, let alone to conquer Paris. In the end, some kind of compromise may be reached, but this compromise is still the one that Paris prevails.
　　 But in the matter of fleeing, the queen gradually convinced the king that he must escape from Paris. It's just a variety of things that make the fleeing action constantly delayed.
　　 Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette can be said to be "born in a deep palace and grown in the hands of a woman". They have no experience in planning to escape. If they can trust Mirabeau, then this guy who often flees for cheating and hiding debts can provide a lot of help.
　　 However, on the one hand, neither the king nor the queen could believe in Mirabeau, and on the other hand, God seemed to no longer favor the French royal family who had always been filial to him-Mirabeau suddenly died.
　　 Of course, Mirabeau was not poisoned by Pierre Belek with aconitum. But Mirabeau's death is indeed related to wine. It is said that in the previous period of hardship, he got rid of some bad ailments that would destroy his health, but after getting new financial resources, his bad ailments became worse. For example, alcoholism, gluttony, and things that are inconvenient to describe.
　　 It is said that Mr. Mirabeau will be with some prostitutes and have a banquet all night. In order to be able to continue to enjoy good wine and food without being restricted by the limited capacity of the stomach, Mr. Camilla imitated the ancient Roman sages-when they were full and drank, they put a little emetic, and then threw it up. Then you can continue to eat and drink.
　　 In later generations, anyone with a little bit of health knowledge will know how much health is destroyed by this practice, but people in that era did not understand this. So, after another all-night banquet, Mirabeau suddenly fell ill. The condition deteriorated quickly, and it didn't take long for the illness to defeat Mirabeau.
　　 Although Mirabeau is a prodigal, he is knowledgeable, insightful, and good at coordinating all aspects of the relationship. His death has caused the various factions in the parliament to lose an acceptable coordinator.
　　 The death of Mirabeau did not have much influence on Joseph and the others for the time being. During this time, Joseph and Napoleon spent almost all of their time on how to build their small army.
　　 The size of this "Red Army" force slightly exceeded the original estimate. Originally, Joseph and the others only planned to build a first-level team, but they soon discovered that because of the special attributes of this team, the number of supporting personnel required by this team was unexpected. Calculating carefully, and adding these personnel, the number of the entire team will exceed 600 in any case.
　　The first direct consequence of the increase in personnel is the increase in costs. Just like those stories, for a project, the initial budget and final cost can always be several times worse.
　　 Fortunately, after carefully reviewing the project, Lafayette still believes that the money is worth spending, and the project can continue. But he still said jokingly:
"Joseph, your team of more than 600 people, there are just more than 60 soldiers who can queue up on the battlefield, plus the artillery and cavalry, it is less than 200 people, but all kinds of logistics However, there are close to four hundred personnel. At that time, I will drag a team of two hundred people to fight with you, but you have defeated them. They will say:'You use six hundred people to beat us two hundred people.' If I pull With a team of two hundred people, you only have so many soldiers..."
　　 Napoleon, who was following Joseph at the time, said, "Our team can beat at least a thousand people."
　　 Lafayette listened, but only glanced at the young man. Obviously, he regarded Napoleon's words as the arrogance of ordinary young people. But Lafayette is a very generous person. He doesn't want to care about the young man, so he just smiled, but didn't say much.
　　 With the support of Lafayette, the formation of this army went smoothly. Two months later, most of the personnel and equipment of this army were basically in place, and Joseph and Napoleon began to enter the intense work.
　　 This army is a multi-armed army. In addition to infantry, there is also a relatively large artillery with eight cannons. Both Napoleon and Joseph believed that modern warfare is artillery warfare. In most cases, combat plans should revolve around how to effectively use artillery firepower.
　　 Most of the soldiers and low-level officers in this army were selected by Lafayette from the French army near Paris, so after more than a month of training, the whole army was basically formed. However, what Joseph and Napoleon did not expect was that their first combat mission was not to repair other troops, but to capture the king.
　　 Joseph received the order in the morning. The order was issued by General Lafayette, and the general content was that a revolutionary enemy "kidnapped" the king's family and took them out of Paris. So now the general ordered the army to immediately enter a state of alert, ready to fight at any time.
　　 "The king was kidnapped?" As soon as he received this order, Napoleon couldn't help but sneered and asked, "Who kidnapped him? I'm afraid it's him?"
　　 "Napoleon, this is not something we should consider now." Joseph said, winking at Napoleon.
　　 Napoleon understood that Joseph must have something to say, but it was not easy to say in front of other people. So he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
　　 "Which way the king is going, does anyone know?" Joseph asked the messenger.
"Some people say they may have gone to Lyon, and some people say they have gone in the direction of Monmedi." The messenger replied, "The parliament has sent representatives to chase in these two directions. The general asks you to be prepared at any time. Prepare, you must act upon the order."
　　 "Okay, you go back and report to the general. We can be ready within ten minutes and listen to his orders at any time." Joseph replied.
　　 Chuan Lingbing saluted him, then ran out, jumped on his horse, and went in other directions.
　　 Seeing the messenger go away, Napoleon immediately said: "Joseph, there will be war soon!" Joseph noticed that Napoleon's face turned red with excitement.
　　 "Calm down, the king hasn't run out yet, maybe he will be caught back." Although Joseph's history is not good, he also knows that Louis XVI ended up on the guillotine. So he was not optimistic about the king's escape this time. The reason is simple. If the king really ran away so easily, how could he be pushed to the guillotine?
But Napoleon obviously didn't think so. He said, "Joseph, you idiot! How can you have such a fantasy! You don't want to think about how far a two-horse horse carriage can go in one night. I believe that the king must have been prepared before that, and there must be people who will meet him on the road. These people don’t even need to do anything else, just prepare another chaise there. Once the king arrives, Immediately change to a carriage, and then run at the fastest speed, so that if he leaves in the middle of the night, he should have reached the border by now, and will have peace with the royal parties and the Austrians. Even the representatives of the National Assembly. It’s impossible to catch up with them if you break your leg. I think this math problem is extremely simple, even for an idiot like you. I really don’t know why you still have such a fantasy..."
"I don't know, UU reading www.uukanshu.com" Joseph said, "I have such a feeling. I always feel that our king seems to be unable to do such simple and neat things as you said. ."
　　 "Our king is indeed not a neat guy, but, but he is not so stupid, right?" Napoleon said.
　　 "Who knows?" Joseph spread his hands.
　　 However, in the afternoon of the third day, a new order came. This order confirmed Joseph's guess that the king was actually intercepted!
"The representatives of the parliament intercepted the king's family in Varena. Some mercenary cavalry were active nearby, and there were only a small number of National Guards in charge of protecting the king. General Lafayette ordered you to set off immediately to protect the king. One family and bring them back to Paris."
　　 The messenger gave the order signed by Lafayette to Joseph and left. Joseph immediately ordered Robert, the captain of the cavalry under his command, to take the lead with the cavalry, while himself and Napoleon followed with the infantry.
　　 Napoleon once wanted to follow the cavalry, but was stopped by Joseph. Because Joseph didn't want himself and his brother to show off at this time.
"The current situation is still very chaotic. At this time, we must hide our political position as much as possible. We are different from others. Others have to climb up, only relying on standing in line and corruption. But we are different, we can Rely on talent and corruption. So we have to avoid dangerous lines as much as possible." Joseph said to Napoleon.
　　 "My brother, you are so steady." Napoleon said. From the corners of his slightly puckered mouth, Joseph saw that most of what he actually wanted to say was: "Joseph, you are such a bullshit."
