Bridgestone felt that his eyes were dark, the importance of these cannons to the Duke of Orleans naturally did not need to be said, and this was a critical moment, the mob team was in a period of irritability for the Bastille for a long time, plus Napoleon personally led the army to rescue, maybe one is not good, the whole mob team will collapse!
Thinking of this, he immediately ran to the artillery position, he needed to see the damage to the artillery.
The situation was neither very good nor very bad, six of the thirteen six-pounder guns were destroyed by boreblows and shells, and the barrels of the remaining seven guns were also very hot, and perhaps another round of fire would have to scrap them.
"Quick, immediately heat down the barrel of the artillery!
And immediately transport these guns to where we came!
” The private soldiers of the Duke of Orleans, who naturally knew where the artillery came from, heard Bridgestone's order, and some of the artillerymen immediately ran into the distance, where there were horses pulling the artillery.
Seeing Bridgestone's order to let the artillery retreat, Mars immediately stepped forward to block it "Bridgestone, our operation has reached the most critical time, these artillery pieces of yours are of great use to us, at this time, you must not retreat!"
Mars was also one of the leaders of the mob who laid siege to the Bastille, and he was originally a representative of the Third Estate, and he was also an extremely fierce anti-royal party after the convening of the Estates-General!
It was only because Mars was not in Paris when Napoleon began to arrest him that he escaped, and after that, Mars sneaked back to Paris, taking advantage of the misfortunes of the delegates and his own ingenuity.
In the third estate, he won a large number of adherents.
"Mars.
You have also seen the situation of these artillery, if you continue to bombard, these guns will definitely be reimbursed, this is a sharp weapon of our people, I can't let these guns all be destroyed here!
” Bridgestone's words did not convince Mars, who was still greedy for the artillery and weapons of the Bridgestone team, but because of the current comrades-in-arms of both sides.
Mars did not take any further action.
In fact, Mars can be said to be quite cunning, he used the name of rescuing the good people persecuted by the royal family, quickly pulled up a team of three or four thousand people, and later, he led this team to break through the family residence of more than a dozen nobles and a government warehouse in the name of punishing the evil nobles, and the result of these battles was to provide him with nearly a thousand guns, as well as a few small cannons and some cold weapons such as swords.
Marles, if not counting the Bridgestone team, is one of the best-developed teams in this mob wave.
But after the siege of the Bastille, Bridgestone's team showed Mars what it meant to be generous.
In addition to the inconsistent clothing in the team, everyone in the Bridgestone team actually had guns, and later, Bridgestone even found thirteen six-pounder guns, which overshadowed Mars in one fell swoop.
And although Mars did not mix in the army.
But that didn't mean he didn't know the value of the six-pounder cannons, and it was precisely because he knew the value of them filled Mars's heart with envy—jealousy—ruthlessness, and jealousy was one of the seven deadly sins of mankind.
"Mars, don't mess with me, the Queen's army of loyal dogs is almost there.
If we don't retreat now, it won't do us any good to let these guns fall into the hands of that man.
So now you better get back to your team as soon as possible and think about what to do right away!
” "Bridgestone, are you ready to escape?"
As soon as this sentence came out, the eyes of the people around Bridgestone were full of strangeness, and when they saw the eyes of the people around them, Bridgestone knew that he was going to suffer, and sure enough, after seeing that Bridgestone did not speak, Marles said loudly: "Bridgestone has betrayed us, and he is already afraid of the queen's dog, but tell me, righteous citizens of France, if you are afraid of that Corsican livestock!"
"Don't be afraid!!
.....................”
Seeing that the people around him responded enthusiastically, Mars said triumphantly: "See, Bridgestone, this is the power of our people, as long as there is this power, any enemy is like a tiger!
............”
But before Bridgestone could continue to talk nonsense with Marles, he saw that a big flag was approaching behind them.
On this banner is the fleur-de-lis flag, which is the flag of the French royal family, and when this flag appears, it means that the French army is coming.
"Order all units and platoons to keep in formation and advance, and do your best against the enemy, and show no mercy!"
Looking at the nearby Bastille, Napoleon said with a resolute face, and after he finished speaking, he saw three thousand French soldiers lined up in a neat formation and pressed towards the mob, and those scattered mobs could not cause the slightest obstacle to the formation of the army.
Just when Bridgestone was stunned and ready to order his subordinates to retreat as soon as possible, he turned his head and found that Mars, who was more arrogant than anyone else, was now quickly and embarrassed into the mob ranks, and not only that, but Mars, who was in a panic, even ran away from one of his shoes.
Seeing Mars's performance, Bridgestone almost bit off his tongue.
Of course, not everyone is as cowardly as Mars, and Bridgestone also reacted: "Hurry up and everyone go up to defend me against the royal lackeys, and the artillery will transport the artillery away for me as soon as possible, if I can't transport it, I will blow it up!"
As he spoke, Bridgestone personally led a group of people to rush to the slowly pressing French front.
With the advent of Napoleon's army, the mob besieging the Bastille turned their attention to Napoleon's army, and with the exception of some people with the same character as Mars, most of the idealistic people fearlessly rushed into the orderly ranks of the French army.
But their efforts were futile relative to the overall situation of the war.
The battle lasted for two hours, and the 5,000 mobs gathered around the Bastille were routed by Napoleon's French army, which squabbled around like rats "All units are required to kill those mobs in battalions, and they would rather kill a thousand wrong people than let one go!"
The murderous words made everyone around Napoleon feel cold, but no one refuted Napoleon's words, and the young man, who was only nineteen years old this year, had already won the hearts of the soldiers with his performance.
No soldier wants to follow a soft-hearted general, and on the contrary, a ruthless general on the battlefield can often win the soldiers to follow, of course, this ruthlessness refers to the enemy.
After Napoleon's order was given, the originally orderly French array was instantly divided into many small pieces, and these fragmented small pieces showed no signs of dispersion, and they followed the footprints left by the enemy in the direction of the mob's escape.
Looking at the messy battlefield, Napoleon quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, saying that he was not nervous, it was unrealistic, the importance of the Bastille naturally did not need to be said, and under the walls of the Bastille there were more than 5,000 rebels and a huge force of thirteen six-pounder guns, if it were not for the sudden explosion of the artillery, maybe the siege of the Bastille would not have been unraveled so easily.
Just when Napoleon breathed a sigh of relief, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose inside the Bastille, and Napoleon was stunned at the sight of this.

"Your Excellency General, it's no good, the prisoners in the prison are attacking the guards while the soldiers guarding are not paying attention, and they are also setting fire to the prison, and now the first floor to the third floor underground have been occupied by those criminals!"
The gates of the Bastille were opened from the inside, and a soldier rushed in front of Napoleon and told Napoleon about the inside of the prison, and upon hearing the news, Napoleon immediately shouted: "Get all the soldiers back at once, and let me go to the Bastille to suppress the rebellious criminals!
If those criminals dare to resist, no matter who they are, they will be executed by me!
” Speaking of which, Napoleon's determination has been made, the Bastille is not a simple place, it is just like the Qincheng Prison in the Celestial Empire, of course, its scale and Qincheng Prison cannot be compared, but the importance of incarcerating criminals in it is needless to say.
The largest number of such prisons are political prisoners, and these political prisoners have a large number of adherents outside the prison, so the treatment of these political prisoners has always been the most troublesome thing for governments.
There were probably more than 100 criminals in the Bastille, of course, this is different from the original history, in 1789, the Bastille has become one of the buildings that only symbolizes the power of the French crown, it is said that after the storming of the Bastille, the revolutionaries found that there were only seven criminals in the prison!
But it could also be a change in history, since Marie took over the French regime, she had a soft spot for the Bastille, because there were so many people in France who had dangerous ideas that they had to be controlled, like some mental hospitals in the Celestial Empire.
As a result, there was no shortage of criminals in the Bastille.
Before reaching the troops on Napoleon's orders, he could only personally storm the Bastille with one of his own battalions, which he did.
The sudden shouts and gunfire of the Bastille made Napoleon's pace quicken.
