Napoleon's actions in Paris were a great shock to a group of ill-intentioned people, but as a result, the discontent of the people of the Third Estate became more and more serious, and the arrest of those representatives of the Third Estate made all Parisians realize the unshakable determination of the royal family to pass the proposal to raise taxes.
The Duke of Orleans looked at a piece of information on the table and was silent for a long time, and his son, the Duke of Charlt, looked at his father's frowning brow with a sad expression.
This information came from the Paris Garrison Command, where the Duke of Orleans told the Duke of Orleans that Napoleon had obtained authorization from Queen Marie, and not only that, but it was said that Queen Marie and the Prince of Condé had reached some kind of secret consensus, and this consensus was simply fatal to the Duke of Orleans.
Condé's people have put pressure on the Duke of Orleans' faction on various occasions, especially in the military, the Prince of Condé's faction and the royal faction have come together, and the command of several armies that the Duke of Orleans faction originally held in his hands is now in jeopardy.
The bad news doesn't stop there, Marie is said to be preparing to switch the armies of Orleans with those stationed overseas, and if that happens, it will mean that a lot of the Duke of Orleans's military efforts will be in vain.
At present, the Duke of Orleans has only the garrison of his fiefdom of Orleans and the Duke's Guard in his hands, and the Third Army stationed in Nantes has also been infiltrated by the Duke of Orleans's men, and in total, the Duke of Orleans has as many as 12,000 troops in his hands.
It's just relative to the strength of the royal family.
The forces in the hands of the Duke of Orleans were at an extreme disadvantage, and nothing else was left behind.
The 1st Army and the Royal Guard stationed in Paris alone had a strength of nearly 40,000 men.
If the Duke of Orleans really dared to rebel against the world, he would not be able to succeed with one blow with the strength in his hands, and if he could not wait for the royal family to react, then the Duke of Orleans would face a catastrophe.
"Father, you have been sitting for a long time, and this will not solve the problem at all, according to me, we will directly pull the army of the fief to the vicinity of Versailles.
Instead, take the palace and capture Louis XVI!
” The young Duke of Chart was still breathless after all, and after seeing the Duke of Orleans silent for a long time, Charlt jumped up and said loudly, but his words had the opposite effect "You pig, how did the Orleans family come up with such a fool of you!
Are you not being watched by our army in Orleans?
I can guarantee that as soon as there is a change in our army, the news will reach Paris, and how can we defeat the royal family and Condé by then!
” "Then what do you say?
Is it just like this, half-dead, and then watching others cut flesh on themselves one by one!
” The Duke of Orleans was silent again, it was undeniable that what Philippe said was right, let the Duke of Orleans watch himself being suppressed by the royal family and Condé but do not fight back, the Duke of Orleans thinks that he can't do it.
"You go and talk to the people at the Brittany club right away and tell them.
Condé has completely fallen to the feudal king, if they can't give me the greatest support, then I will not be able to continue to guarantee my position, so for the sake of our common interests, please also ask them to give me the greatest help in all aspects!
” After saying that, the Duke of Orleans waved his hand and motioned for the Duke of Charlt to do it immediately.
After the Duke of Chart had left, the Duke of Orleans pondered again.
To be honest, although the Duke of Orleans has always been in a relationship with the people of the Brittany Club.
But the Duke has always maintained that the relationship between the two sides is only cooperation, and as for the further development, it is completely absent.
The difference between the Duke and the Brittany Club was that the Brittany Club advocated a radical restriction of royal power and a constitutional monarchy modeled on England.
Of course, these were not the most radical, and nearly a third of the members of the Breton Club actually proposed the abolition of the aristocracy, the abolition of the guild system, and the confiscation and auction of ecclesiastical property.
And this proposition was simply far from what the Duke of Orleans had in mind.
It is undeniable that the Duke of Orleans has an unwilling ambition beating in his chest, and for countless nights, the Duke of Orleans longed to replace Louis XVI on the pinnacle of France and look down on the people at his feet, but this premise is that the Duke of Orleans is against Louis XVI's monarch** and not his own monarch**.
If the Duke of Orleans were to be put on the throne, the Duke of Orleans would have gone even further than Mary, because he could not tolerate the interference and restriction of his rights.
So although on the surface, the Duke of Orleans had a close relationship with the people in the Brittany Club, but in his heart the Duke of Orleans was wary of Brittany, and even the Duke of Orleans sent a large number of spies to break into the Brittany Club, and the Duke thought that if he ascended to that position one day, then there was no doubt that Brittany would be his biggest threat.
Shortly after the Duke of Charlt came out of the Brittany Club, Queen Mary and Napoleon, who were in charge of the garrison headquarters, received the news.
"Your Highness, I think it's time for me to act" "Wait, Napoleon, you let me think about it again" As she spoke, Marie rubbed her forehead, she knew about the Brittany Club, because many of the members of this club worked for the French government, and even executives such as the French Chancellor of the Exchequer participated.
"Your Royal Highness, what else do you have to think, isn't the Duke of Orleans' actions exactly what we planned, let the people of Orleans and Brittany contact, and then we will catch them all, so as to most effectively stabilize the current chaotic situation!"
"But Napoleon, many people in Brittany are government officials and aristocrats, and if we catch them all, then the royal family will lose support in the upper echelons of France, and if anyone pushes it again, even the royal family will become the enemy of the whole of France!"
"Your Royal Highness, don't forget, we have the army in our hands, as long as we have the army, then the support of these people is no longer important, if someone plots to overthrow the royal regime, the weapons in the hands of the army will show those people what justice is" "Napoleon.......
"Your Royal Highness, needless to say, the reason why His Majesty Louis XIV was called the Sun King back then was not only because his light shone all over Europe, but you must know that the sun has a warm side and a violent side, and when he is angry, the sun's light and flames are enough to pierce all the enemies who stand in his way!"
Hearing Napoleon say this, Marie was speechless for a long time, and it was undeniable that if she had done what Amber had wanted, it would have been possible to stabilize Paris in the shortest possible time, but the price would have been too great.
The royal family has long wanted to move the people of the Brittany club, but because those people are represented in all walks of life in France, not only that, but many of the members in this club are French government officials, if the club is closed and the members are arrested, it will definitely cause turmoil in the whole of France.
"Your Royal Highness, you will believe me once, this time I will definitely wipe out those rebellious ministers and thieves, you can rest assured!"
Saying that, Napoleon straightened his military uniform and said loudly: "Order all the men of the garrison to assemble at once outside the gate, and send someone to the garrison of the First Regiment outside the city to find Count Simond, and ask him to bring two regiments into the city to help us in our operation."
Speaking of this, Napoleon thought for a moment, the entire Paris garrison has a total of less than 6,000 people, and now there are more than 4,000 people on the streets of Paris to maintain law and order or carry out tasks, so in this way, Napoleon's most available troops are only more than 1,000 people, even if you add the two regiments outside the city, it is less than 3,000 people.
Without four or five thousand people, the search for the Brittany Club could not be completed at all, and you must know that Brittany has **100 people just by being members.
A Breton club is worth all the illegal organizations that Napoleon has arrested before, and the identity of the members in this club is not like the dens of those organizations that Napoleon destroyed before, relatively speaking, the Breton club can be said to be the center of chaos in the whole of Paris.
This Breton Club was officially the predecessor of the famous Jacobins, and not only that, but also the later Fjëláns and Girondins were later separated from the Breton Club.
The reason why it was later renamed the Jacobin Club is that in October 1789, when the Breton Club moved to Paris and met in the Jacobin Abbey, hence the name.

"Your Highness, I would like to ask you to put a regiment of the Royal Guard under my command, and I would like to ask you to take command of the First Legion outside the city for the time being."
Hearing Napoleon's request, Marie immediately said: "I can hand over a regiment of royal guards to you, but I'm right here, not going anywhere!"
"Your Royal Highness, please don't be so stubborn, although you have the protection of the royal guard, who knows what kind of rebellious things those rebels who jumped over the wall will do, so please be able to go out of the city immediately!"
Marie was moved by Napoleon's firmness, and after careful consideration, she agreed to Napoleon's request, but before leaving, Marie said: "It's better not to be heavy-handed with those in Brittany, and to be safe yourself" With that, Mary turned and walked away
