Chapter 425: A Strong Woman


; The scene that happened at the gate of the barracks of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, although Ulavi did not see it with his own eyes, but when the pale-faced Buel opened his mouth to reprimand him, Ulavi felt a little aggrieved in his heart.

And the aggrieved expression on his face naturally could not escape William's eyes, and when Buel ordered the arrest of the officer who spoke disrespectfully to William, William spoke: "Alright, Buel, let this be the end of the matter!

And this Ulavi regiment commander is doing a good job, I'm very optimistic about you!

” As he spoke, William patted Ulavi on the shoulder.

William is no stranger to Ulavi, since William became an adult, every Prussian middle and high-level military general would go to Sanssouci Palace to meet William before his promotion, and the rank of meeting William began with the regimental commander.

Later, accompanied by Ulavi, William and his party inspected the entire Third Cavalry Regiment, and when William was interested, he personally showed some equestrian skills in front of everyone at Ulavi's request.

As a skill that has been practiced hard since childhood, equestrianism is also a skill that William can master, don't forget that when William was a teenager, he personally rode a horse to lead the army to Austria Before Napoleon led his army to Paris, the Duke of Orleans finally made up his mind, and at a meeting of the entire Parisian revolutionaries, the Duke of Orleans put all the revolutionaries under house arrest in the name of the city's defenses, while at the same time, the regular army under the control of Simmond quickly liquidated the city's many nominal armed forces.

The results of the Duke of Orleans' actions were enormous, although there were still some people in Paris who criticized and even fought against the actions of Orleans.

But that didn't stop Orleans from taking control of Paris.

After clearing the city of chaos and disarray, the Duke of Orleans immediately began to carefully build the city's defenses.

As the most shining jewel of the entire European continent, Paris has a large population and a large urban area.

And all this caused difficulties for the defense of the city.

Contrary to popular belief, Orleans did not intend to go toe-to-toe with Napoleon's counterinsurgency, and his strategy was to deplete the enemy's vital forces.

Orleans mobilized tens of thousands of Parisians to dig tunnels around the city, and in order to take care of the worst-case scenario, large quantities of explosives were secretly placed around important neighborhoods and buildings in the city.

Orleans' aim was simple: to fight a war of attrition against the rebels, and he didn't mind what Paris would become.

All the Duke needed was to drag out the time, and he had to make the counterinsurgents suffer great losses every step before Paris.

At the same time, Orleans sent its own emissaries to Calais and to the south, where the Revolutionary Party was strong.

Able to complete this series of arrangements in a matter of days.

I have to say that the Duke of Orleans still has some skills.

At this moment, the Palace of Versailles had become the focus of attention of the whole of France, because everyone knew that Louis XVI had mobilized all the forces he could to form a counterinsurgency army and march to Paris, if Paris could not be conquered under such circumstances.

Even the counterinsurgents of the royal family were defeated.

Then it is conceivable that the rule of the Bourbons in France will collapse overnight like a collapsed building.

Although no one dared to mention this situation in front of Louis XVI, the king was well aware of the current situation.

Louis XVI, who used to be obsessed with locks and some clever gadgets, didn't even want to look at the pile of toys that he was once willing to eat, and Louis XVI was undoubtedly impetuous, every time he thought that his army might fail, Louis XVI would have a nightmare, and even the king had his dream of being guillotined, which made Louis XVI still frightened.

Fortunately, Louis XVI had a virtuous queen.

That's Mary.

When Louis XVI was at his most impetuous and fearful, Queen Mary would be by his side.

At one point, Marie, despite her own physical condition, helped Louis XVI deal with the complicated administrative affairs presented to him from all over France.

When Marie saw the sad Louis XVI sitting on her throne in a daze again, the queen struggled to break free from the support of the maid next to her and walked gently to Louis XVI's side, the queen walked a little hard every step, but the queen still controlled the sound of her steps, because she did not want to disturb Louis XVI for her own reasons.

After walking to Louis XVI's side, the contemplative king finally reacted, and just as he was about to step forward to support Marie, Marie showed a charming smile, and she gently embraced Louis XVI, who was sitting on the throne, into her arms: "Louis, don't worry, I believe in Napoleon, you should have some confidence in him, and the kingdom has spent hundreds of years since its foundation, but the kingdom has never fallen!

The Bourbons are God's favorites, and Louie, you are also where God's glory shines, and I believe that God will always be on our side!

”、 Marie comforted Louis XVI softly, and under her comfort, Louis XVI buried his head in Marie's arms like a wounded child, and the king never felt that his mood was so peaceful.

"Mary, I believe that your presence is the most concrete manifestation of God's favor for me, rest assured, we will get through it!"

After comforting Louis XVI, Marie returned to her bedchamber with the help of her maids, and after returning to the chamber, Marie did not rest, and wrote a letter to Napoleon.

In this letter, Marie did not think of herself as the queen of Louis XVI, but wrote in the voice of her sister, recalling the details of her first encounter with Napoleon, and the word brother alone appeared no less than 20 times in the letter.

In this way, Marie hoped to inspire Napoleon to fight for France, and it turned out that Marie's letter did work wonders, but that is for another time, so I will not mention it for now.

After writing her letter to Napoleon, Marie did not stop writing, and she wrote another letter to Leopold.

For Mary who is closest to her in the world, then there is no doubt that Leopold must be one of them, although Mary is now the queen of the Bourbon dynasty, but she has not changed her attitude towards Leopold because of the change of identity.

In the letter, Mary recalls the story of their siblings when they were young, and among the younger siblings, Marie was the closest to Joseph II and Leopold, so Mary focuses on the care that her two brothers took care of her when she was a child.

Eventually, Mary cried to Leopold in the form of a bullied sister, hoping that Leopold would be able to help her, a young girl who was wandering alone in France and was under countless pressures.

In addition to these two letters, Marie also issued a decree in her own name to all of France.

After many years of change, if the best person in the hearts of the people at the bottom of the entire Bourbon dynasty was, then people would not have chosen the Duke of Orleans, because there was still the good Mary before him.

After more than ten years of hard work, Marie has become the pearl in the hearts of most French people, and some people may criticize Louis XVI and the incompetence of the French government in public**, but absolutely no one will attack Marie in public, because for more than ten years, she has been thinking about the French people day by day, and now she is only Marie.

Both among the commoners and among the nobility, with the exception of a few people with ulterior motives and some who had been thoroughly corrupted by certain ideals, the majority of the people still revered Marie, which also made Marie's intentions play an unexpected role in all parts of France.

The Tèbié were the soldiers who had been discharged from the army, as well as the peasants and the elderly, and Marie was closely related to the preferential policies implemented in France, and in 1786, Marie took out all her belongings to help the victims, which also earned her the reputation of Our Lady in some of the hardest-hit areas.

After writing the two letters, Mary's face turned red, and then a mouthful of blood swelled up, only to hear a click, and a mouthful of blood spat on the desk.

Despite the exclamations of the maids beside her, Mary still had a soft smile on her face, and she gently folded the letter and put it in the envelope: "Arrange for these two letters to be sent to General Napoleon and His Majesty Leopold in Vienna, respectively, and you must remember that you have not seen anything just now!"

Under Mary's gaze, the maid nodded with tears in her eyes.

This is not the first time this has happened, and she once ordered the royal doctor to diagnose herself, and the answer given by the doctor at that time was that Mary had become ill from overwork, and the only thing to do now was to rest and maintain her body and then treat it with medicine.

Mary thanked the doctor for his advice, but knew she didn't have time to rest now because she had a lot to deal with.

Louis XVI was already panicking because of the rebellion in Paris, and although he was comforted by Marie, Louis XVI's mood improved a little, but the king was not fit to deal with political affairs in this state.

As a result, Mary was the only one who could control the scene at Versailles at the moment.

As the saying goes: behind every successful man there is a virtuous woman, and who knows how much this woman has given up for her man to be successful
