Chapter 413: Louis XVI's Countermeasures


To Marie's disappointment, Louis XVI not only did not stabilize after listening to her words, but Louis XVI's originally somewhat panicked face became angry.

"Those untouchables, their rebellion after rebellion, the good kingdom for their filthy inferiors have become the laughing stock of all Europe!

I'm going to kill them all!

” "Your Majesty, you are angry!"

Marie's face showed pleading, she knew that Louis XVI was gradually losing his mind, and such a king would be a disaster for the whole of France, not to mention that it was still the most difficult time for the state.

"Your Majesty, think of our little Charlie, do you want our children to inherit a kingdom of chaos and riots!

Your Majesty, even if not for yourself, please be able to reason for the ancestors of the Bourbon dynasty and our little Charles!

” Hearing Mary mention Little Charlie, sure enough, the look on Louis XVI's face softened, seeing that her words had an effect, Mary's heart was first happy and then full of bitterness, the state affairs were so difficult that even Louis XIV was reborn, I am afraid that he could only barely maintain it, and the original dream of a strong country may have really come to naught.

Marie endured the discomfort and sat up from the bed, looking at Louis XVI lying on the side of the bed, Marie's face was very soft, although there was no blood on her face, but the queen still smiled at Louis XVI, at this time Marie showed everyone the definition of strong!

"Your Majesty, it is imperative that we recover Paris as soon as possible, if Paris continues to sink into the hands of Orleans, I am afraid that we will face the greatest crisis, so I ask you to immediately mobilize all your troops and horses to recover Paris!"

Louis XVI, who was lying on Mary's bed, straightened up, and said with a sad face: "There are simply not enough troops around Paris right now.

The rebellion of the First Army has led to the whole situation being out of control, and now we have only the Third Army in the west, 20,000 royal guards stationed in and around Versailles, Napoleon's Second Army and Mader's men and horses are concentrated in Calais, and we do not know the attitude of the Fourth Army now.

So we have only 50,000 troops at our disposal.

But the Third Army will be at least half a month away from Paris, and we may not have time to do so."

Marie was pleased to see that Louis XVI was able to get a general idea of the current situation.

Mary is naturally well aware of her husband's personality, and His Majesty the King may be okay, but the current complicated situation is obviously beyond his control.

Mary forced a smile and said: "Your Majesty.

Let's make peace with the British, send someone to see what the British want, as long as it is not a fundamental condition, then we can promise them, aren't the British interested in those colonies in the Caribbean, then we will give it to him!

After stabilizing the British, Mader was stationed near Calais with 20,000 men to guard against the mob.

Then order Napoleon to lead most of his forces back to Paris at once, and with the Guards, we have the strength to recover Paris!

” Marie's words made Louis XVI's eyes widen, but then Louis XVI shouted with a somewhat distracted gaze: "No, I have already told the world that I want the whole of Calais to be in ruins, and I want to let all those rebels die!

There are also those colonies in the Caribbean that can bring us a lot of benefits every year.

Without the colonies of the Caribbean, our share of tax revenue would be reduced by a considerable amount.

And if we back down, the British will definitely gain an inch, and we have seen many examples of this, and I will never let the British get their way!

” "Your Majesty!

We can fight for those colonies without them, but once there is no Paris, what will we do to govern France, and once Orleans puts up his banner in Paris, what position should we be in at that time!

There is also the city of Paris, where the kingdom has accumulated a hundred years of wealth, and once it is used by those who rebel against the royal family.

We will be in a worse situation than we are now!

” Marie's questioning caused Louis XVI to lower his head, only to see Louis XVI sitting on the edge of Marie's bed, holding his head and scratching constantly.

Marie gently reached out and touched Louis XVI's hand "Your Majesty, you are the king of the Kingdom of France, and you have the blood of the Sun King family flowing in your body, do you remember what happened to His Majesty Louis XIV back then?"

Heard Mary mention Louis XIV.

Louis XVI was stunned, he didn't understand why Marie was talking about her ancestors.

Seeing Louis XVI's expression, Marie sighed in her heart and said: "Your Majesty, in 1651, when the Prince of Condé rebelled, he united with the Spaniards to lead a large army to force Paris, and in the provinces, Condé's accomplices were also ready to move, and after that there was a rebellion in Paris, the royal family had to leave Paris, and the whole kingdom was about to fall into a catastrophe, and everyone in the whole kingdom was panicked.

But His Majesty Louis XIV, who was only thirteen years old at the time, was not afraid, and not only did the young King come to the front line to inspire the soldiers who were fighting, but His Majesty Louis XIV even said that I am not afraid of the rebellion of the clowns.

It was in such a situation that in the end it was the royal army that succeeded!

As a descendant of His Majesty Louis XIV, you have the blood of the greatest king of Europe in your veins, and you carry the past, present and future of France on your shoulders!

” It is undeniable that Louis XIV was a great monarch in the history of the world, who led the real rise of France on the European continent, whose name was praised by all the French, and whose life was a great epic.

Marie's encouragement worked, and Louis XVI lifted his head again, this time with a soothing look on his face.

"Your Majesty, in such a situation, why should you care about the gains and losses of that moment, don't forget that His Majesty Louis XIV has fled Paris several times, but he has not been defeated by these things, these difficulties are God's tempering for you, behind you is the national fortune of France for hundreds of years, and countless ancestors and heroic spirits are watching you from heaven!"

Seeing Louis XIV's intentions, Marie hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.

Louis XIV stood up, he walked to the dresser in the room and looked at himself in the mirror, where he seemed to see the countless ancestors of the Bourbon dynasty inspiring him.

"Thank you, Mary, it was God's favor for me that sent you to me!"

After saying that, Louis XIV walked out, and saw Louis XIV's straight back at the moment, and Marie's face bloomed with joy, and at this moment Louis XIV's figure was infinitely magnified in her mind.

Returning to the hall, Louis XIV immediately consulted with several generals of the Guards and government officials who were still waiting for him in the hall.

"Immediately recall Napoleon's Second Legion, and at the same time have Mader leave 20,000 men near Calais to monitor the rebels in Calais, and the rest of the army will return with him, and General Balek, who will immediately pass the order to the Third Army, I need him to lead the Third Army to keep a firm eye on the Fourth Army, and if the Fourth Army acts without my orders, then I need Barlek to completely exterminate the Fourth Army for me!"

And send people to contact the British, tell the British that the Caribbean colonies we can give to them, but they must remain neutral, I don't want any more volunteers, and at the same time send people to Prussia and Holland at once, I need guarantees of neutrality from both countries!

” "From this moment on, the whole of France is in a state of emergency, and the local governments must begin the mass recruitment of soldiers as soon as possible, and there is an order to go down, and all those who collude with the rebel party, regardless of their status, will be arrested by me, and I grant the highest officials in all regions the right of armed suppression, and if the situation requires, these officials can apply for the help of the garrison to exterminate those rebellious parties!"

After a while, Louis XIV summed up, and his order was quickly conveyed by the officials of the Palace of Versailles.

Louis XVI's order made the whole of France no longer peaceful, countless soldiers were conscripted by the government at that time, and some people who were suspected of colluding with the traitorous party were arrested at the first time, and even as long as there was resistance in the process of arrest, then these suspects would face the black muzzles of the soldiers.

In Calais, Madel and Napoleon also received orders from Louis XVI in the shortest possible time, and after that, the two behaved very differently, Madel's face was as if the sky was falling, and Napoleon's face was only a sneer.

When it came to dealing with the Breton members, Napoleon advocated speedy and severe treatment, and for the Duke of Orleans, Napoleon also advocated arrest, but his proposal was not accepted by Marie.

However, the two men had one thing in common, that is, they did not have any objection to the king's orders, and after hastily arranging to monitor the 20,000 horses in Calais, Napoleon and Mader marched to Paris with more than 50,000 soldiers.

However, at this time, something happened to the soldiers under Madel's command at night.

Because when Louis XVI recruited these soldiers, he promised them that as long as they captured Calais, then they could legally and reasonably sack Calais, but now the king's order was that they were transferred to Paris, which meant that all the previous efforts were reimbursed, which made the soldiers' hearts naturally full of dissatisfaction.
