Lightning failed to tear the heavy dark clouds. After the thunder rolled in the low clouds, the heavy rain fell down and raged, like God was crying for the misfortune of Mexico City.
In the palace, Massimilino I was sitting quietly, motionless, as if he had entered the state of sage, not in favor of things, not in grief, everything outside seemed to have nothing to do with him.
"Your Majesty, let's go! The enemy is going to besiege, and he won't be able to leave anymore!"
The guard's anxious words brought Massimilino I back to reality. The heavy rain came in time, successfully delaying the speed of the rebels.
Massimilino I shook his head and said, "Without Feren, there is no emperor in Mexico. I'll wait for them here, you all go!"
Seeing that the situation had gone, Massimilino I did not make a final fight, but dismissed his men and faced failure alone.
This approach is undoubtedly correct, allowing him to successfully avoid the ugliness of human nature. If you really take everyone to the funeral, it is estimated that you will be betrayed once.
Except for a few diehards, everyone else has run away. Of course, it is not necessarily his loyalty that remains, and a large number of people are too close, leaving the emperor's asylum and exile.
If you follow the other emperor, you have enough money in your own pocket, and it is not bad to exile overseas.
Following this is not the same, even if it is usually good, it is very limited to fall into the hands. Now even if you want to run, you have to consider the economic situation. It is not so easy to live a hard life.
In many people's eyes, Massimilino I, an overpowered emperor, is still very valuable. Even if he stepped down now, the Hapsburg family is still in its heyday, and there is still a chance for restoration in the future.
No matter how bad it is, you can find a long-term meal ticket and follow the emperor's loyalty. Can you still be hungry?
Unfortunately, Maximilian I was not an ordinary person, and he was not ready to run at all. No matter how their people lobby, they are unwilling to take refuge in the Austrian African colonies.
This caused a lot of suffering. The rebels did not necessarily dare to kill the emperor, but there was no pressure to kill them. Even if it is in order to render their justice, the revolutionaries will have to kill.
The original time and space accidentally killed too much, causing Mexico to fall into a warlord melee. The situation is now similar, the revolution always needs bloodshed.
Their failed reformists are naturally the best offerings. Without wrongdoing, their biggest problem is incompetence.
Not all the way, don't enter a house. Massimilino I was an idealist himself, and all who gathered around him were like-minded idealists.
Everyone is very good when they are bragging, and when they do things, they drop the chain. Whatever a little bit capable, will not let the rebels come back.
Not to mention, as long as the killing ring is started from the beginning, or the group of political prisoners is not to be pardoned, the development of the rebel army is not as fast.
At present, the top ten of the insurgent army were all released by Massimilino I, and the remaining four-fifths were out of their unrealistic reforms.
You need to know that when the situation was the best, the rebels had a few guerrillas numbered one hundred and eighty. If the chain was not dropped at the critical moment, there would be no rebels.
"Your Majesty, leave first, and we will have a chance to rise again later. Napoleon has all been restored in June. Why stick to the momentary gains and losses?"
The middle-aged guard is really anxious, others can run, he can't. He followed from Austria. As the guard of Massimiliano I, if the Emperor lost his way home, even if the Habsburgs didn't bother him, how could he raise his head in the second half of his life?
After this failed speculation, his ambitions have almost been wiped out, and those who have built up their careers and do n’t want to worry about it, as long as they can enjoy their old age.
Anyway, he was just the captain of Massimiliano I, and he was not responsible for the downfall of the Mexican government. As long as he returned with the emperor safely, it was not a failure.
After returning, you can continue to serve as the captain of the abdicated emperor Massimilino I, playing the image of a loyal minister. It is impossible for the Habsburgs to treat the loyal minister.
Relying on intimidation and temptation, Phelan still gathered a team of 100 people, ready to Massimilino I run.
Of course, this was done in the name of Massimilino I. The benefits of promising to go out were still to be paid by the old emperor.
Do not doubt, no matter how dismal, Massimilino is still a big man. As long as we return to Vienna, fulfilling these promises is not a problem at all.
He even prepared for the failure, and then took the emperor into the Austrian embassy. If the rebels dared to attack, it would just provide an excuse for the Vienna government to interfere.
Massimilino also Shen Qin in the failure, naturally did not pay attention to his actions. He still shook his head and said after a moment of silence, "Napoleon has failed. Why did we succeed?"
Phelan was dumbfounded that the middle-aged and middle-aged middle-aged people were not easy to mess with, just to admit death. Success is naturally a slim chance, he just made an excuse for running.
"His Majesty, the rebels are only one day away from Mexico City. Once the rain stops their chance to besiege the city. If we miss this opportunity, we will have a hard time leaving."
Massimilino I still shook his head and seemed to have made up his mind to stay and ask the rebels why they would rebel.
...
The rebels did not march in the rain, are they really compassionate soldiers? The answer is no. Many people, including President Juarez, do not know what to do with Massimilino I.
Now everyone is deliberately leaving such an obvious loophole, that is, let him get out of the way, it is best to die on the road, so you don't have to worry.
Without a solution, political struggle is complicated. Don't think that Massimilino I pardoned many high-ranking rebels, these people were grateful to him. Even if gratitude exists, no one dares to reveal it in the face of reality.
No matter what they think in their hearts, these people will definitely shout and kill him on the bright side, and they are still very determined.
In addition, some people were once supporters of Massimiliano I. Their interests were damaged during the reform process and they stood on the opposite side.
Those who have lost their interests naturally hate Massimiliano I. If they do not shout and kill him, they are really sorry for the Mexican people.
That's how Massimilino I was sent to the guillotine. But now it's different. Austria and Mexico are neighbors.
If Massimilino I is killed, who knows if the Habsburgs will give up, and what if they invade Mexico in the name of revenge?
Everyone shouted a slogan, but did not want to fight Austria. Don't look at the French troop withdrawal, in fact, the French have always been fighting against them, leaving a shadow deep in their hearts.
President Juarez did not want to keep the trouble of Massimiliano I, nor was he willing to stimulate Austrians for this issue.
Unlike the French, who left after failure, Austria has a foundation. The forces of the Austrian Central American colonies could not swallow Mexico, but they could still bite a piece of meat from them.
Juarez is not a native, he still cares about international politics, at least he knows his neighbors.
The United States of America wants the Mexican market, the Confederate States of America are also paying their attention, and the three countries, Britain and Austria, are staring at them.
Before, there were French people blocking them, these forces were very restrained, now the pressure is on their shoulders.
With the prestige of driving away the French, whether he can deter these enemies, President Juarez has no idea.
He preferred to keep the hidden danger of Massimiliano I, rather than incur interference from various countries because of this problem.
The rain stopped, and Massimilino I remained in the palace and refused to leave this sad place.
The rebels were on their way to Mexico City. Mexico City was already frightened, and Phelan was almost unable to suppress the people.
An impatient guard asked: "General, will your Majesty not leave?"
Don't look at Ferron as just a guard captain, but the rank is not low at all, or a lieutenant general of the Mexican Empire. In this regard, Massimilino I was very generous.
"Kalandi, calm down. Send someone to stare at the rebels. Now the situation has changed. Her Majesty refused to leave the palace. When necessary, we can only force him into the Austrian embassy.
I have already talked with the Austrian Minister. You and your family members may acquire Austrian nationality. The rebels dare not move Austrian citizens. "
After listening to Phelan's explanation, the mood of the crowd stabilized. The Mexican Empire was also a semi-colonial and semi-feudal empire, and the powers also had many privileges here.
When dealing with foreign affairs, the Mexican government has always been cautious. Relatively speaking, during the reign of Massimiliano I, it was the most tough period for Mexico.
Because of his origin, Massimilino I knew the European countries very well, and did not have so much fear.
Government officials feared nothing but scared him as an emperor. In many cases, it can be implemented according to the law, and even if the ministers of various countries come forward, he can calmly respond.
This is of no use, it is impossible for the emperor to handle everything. There are still many privileges to be had, and officials are daunting.
With this amulet, at least it can be guaranteed not to be liquidated by the rebels. You can raise a butcher knife inside, and when you are outside, the Juarez government will never dare to kill.
Now he's following Fei Lun, all the proper royalists. The emperor is the country. Following the emperor, naturally there is no so-called treason, and everyone has no psychological pressure.
Many people are still betting that Massimilino I will be restored for only one reason: his origin. The Habsburgs have the power to restore him. In normal thinking, the Habsburgs have no reason to give up the crown they have.
The contradiction between Massimilino I and the family is not known to ordinary people. The Habsburgs are embarrassed to announce that Massimilino is even more afraid to speak out.
The rebels are coming, and Mexico City has made a mess, smashed and burned, and every moment is staged, showing the ugliness of human nature.
In the evening, a young soldier broke into the palace with his horse, still sipping: "The rebels have entered the city."
With the news, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became tense. This time Phelan didn't go to ask Maximilian I, and immediately decided: "Go, everyone escorted to the Austrian embassy."
Regardless of whether Maximilian I wanted it or not, he was forcibly mounted on a carriage and went to the Austrian embassy in Mexico.
Obviously, the Austrian Embassy with a small space cannot accommodate so many people, but it does not matter that the embassy can be temporarily expanded.
The surrounding buildings were planted with the Austrian flag and became part of the Austrian embassy in Mexico.
The emperor was here, and it was completely legal to expand the embassy. The wood is in a boat, and Maximilian I could not blame others for making their own claims. This is also being loyal.
The companion of the Austrian Minister Compton was about to laugh, knowing that this is the credit for coming to the door, the opportunity is rare.
The successful return of Massimilino I to his country can talk about His Majesty the Great Emperor; even if it fails, it also creates an excuse for intervention in Mexico.
Compton is not afraid of the rebels, no matter how the Mexican rebels dare not take him as the Austrian Minister. If he is moved, he will declare war on Austria.
This terror consequence is not something this new government can bear. Everyone worked so hard for so many years, and finally turned over and became the master, but no one wants to continue to go back to hide in Tibet.
After settling down Massimilino I, Minister Compton immediately promised to everyone: "Don't worry, you will be the guards of the Austrian Embassy in Mexico from now on.
We have prepared our uniforms, and you can change them later. If the rebels dare to act, it is a challenge to the great Austria! "
Apparently, Compton was well prepared. Since contacting Phelan, he immediately sent a batch of uniforms from the Austrian Central American colonies.
Now just changing into a suit, the nature is instantly different. Guarded by the emperor of Mexico, he became a guard of the Austrian embassy.
As for whether Austria has a garrison right in Mexico City, don't consider this issue, it must be there! Even if it is not available, Massimilino I can issue it temporarily.
Regardless of whether the Republican government led by Juarez will not recognize it, Austria has garrison right now. Compton fully demonstrated the business level of a major minister, and calmly obtained a privilege for Austria.
Cheers rang, and now it was finally safe. Being guards of the Austrian embassy means that they have escaped the storm.
The only thing lost was Massimilino I, lying in bed alone and sighing.
