War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

Chapter 20 Calm

We silk weavers,

Every one of them was so poor that they were naked.

People who are high officials,

Put on your coat and wear your brocade breastband.

We weave these,

However, even if he died of hunger, he would not have a piece of cloth to cover his body.

We silk weavers,

Every one of them was so poor that they were naked.

But our world is coming soon,

Your world will be destroyed.

At that time, we will

The mourning clothes of the old world,

Because the thunder of uprising has already sounded in the sky.

The second Lyon workers' uprising shocked France and helped Austria.

The situation of internal and external troubles that Franz expected did not occur. On the contrary, it seemed to be extremely smooth.

It seems that after the Hungarians decided to withdraw from the German Zollverein, all problems were solved.

The Prussian ambassador hanged himself and spent all the funds allocated by the Prussian government.

To add to the disgrace of the Prussian government, more than one dancing girl was seen entering and leaving the Prussian ambassador's room.

So some bad guys connected money, women and ambassadors and concocted a series of scandals.

Prussia's successor Foreign Minister had to say in public that the former Foreign Minister loved his wife very much, and the cause of the matter was under investigation.

It would have been better not to investigate. Once investigated, the Prussians discovered that the matter was related to an organization called the Polish Restoration Army.

At this time, the Prussian military could not sit still and assassinated the Prussian Foreign Minister. This was too bold.

The Prussian high-level officials were even more insecure, fearing that they would be found by members of the Polish Nationalist Army. The turnover of Berlin's brothels dropped sharply that month.

The French were not much better. Just after the plague, a workers' uprising of unprecedented scale broke out in Lyon.

The reason for this is simply that factory owners do not treat workers as human beings. At this time, French workers had to work eighteen hours a day and even had to work overtime.

Since a large-scale uprising broke out in France in 1831, the higher-ups promulgated the October Decree in order to prevent workers from forming associations.

In October 1833, the July Monarchy government issued a decree prohibiting association and the existence of groups of more than twenty people.

But as the saying goes, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below.

The workers broke into pieces and established countless small groups of less than twenty people.

As a result, the association not only did not stop, but became more and more crazy, which made King Louis Philippe very angry.

In March 1834, the rulers of the July Dynasty issued a decree prohibiting workers from organizing new societies, forcing workers to dissolve existing mutual aid societies, otherwise they would punish all members, and ordered the arrest of worker leaders.

This angered the workers, who decided to take up arms against the July Monarchy.

But the French were much more efficient than the Austrians in suppressing the revolution.

The troops of the July Dynasty had long been prepared. After the uprising broke out, the troops of the July Dynasty quickly entered the city, occupied various crossroads and major strongholds, and set up artillery outside the city. The Lyon rebels were already in trouble.

Of course, the French's ability to rebel is not limited. The rebels have rich experience. Even when faced with the pressure of soldiers, they still chose street fighting.

If the army wants to win, it must attack room by room, and it will have to pay a huge price.

Fight with the army in the field, unless you encounter a fool general with a group of soldiers who don't want to fight.

Otherwise, the rebel army without heavy firepower will face the fate of being massacred by the regular army.

On the contrary, the uprising in Paris caught the senior officials of the July Dynasty somewhat unexpectedly.

July Monarchy, Cabinet.

"Guizot, damn it, now that the country is in such dire straits, you're still caring about the damn Austrians."

"Thiers, you short-sighted fool, the Austrians are competing with the Prussians for the leadership of Germany. No matter which side wins, it will be a disaster for France. Do you understand?"

"Before the Germans cause disaster, the workers outside will rush in and hang you and me from the street lamps."

Finally, at Thiers's insistence, tens of thousands of troops entered Paris to maintain order. The uprising was suppressed, but it also brought the entire French government to a near standstill.

At the same time, the "Bloody Week in Lyon" begins. Soldiers were ordered to kill anyone who looked like an insurrectionist or sympathized with the insurrectionists.

In bloody street fighting, men and women were dragged out of their rooms and shot in the street.

The atrocities continued for a week, and the last rebels were shot dead in Colderry Cathedral.

"Char's death will not be in vain, he is a hero!" A tall bearded man wrapped a young man tightly with a piece of rag.

"I'm not afraid of death. Let me go back. I will fight them to the end!" The young man wanted to break away, but was held tightly by the bearded hands.

"If you go back, their death will be in vain! We must live well for them. One day General Napoleon will come back to save us." The bearded man roared.

"But General Napoleon is dead?" The young man had tears in his eyes.

"General Napoleon also has a nephew, Louis Napoleon Bonaparte. And General Jérôme is also alive."

"But what if they are gone?" the young man asked.

"France needs Napoleon, and there must be a Napoleon." The bearded man replied firmly.

"Yes! There must be a Napoleon." The young man named Charles' eyes flashed with perseverance.

At this time, there were many people in ragged clothes like them, but the French army did not kill them all.

Some people in this team have regained their spirits, while others have lost their souls.

The Lyon uprising in France has failed, and Talia lost a year's salary to Franz for it.

After all, in the eyes of people at that time, the uprising in France seemed to always succeed.

At this time, Louis Bonaparte had just become a captain in the Berne Artillery Regiment, and Jerome became a prince thanks to his father-in-law and was spending his old age in Italy.

In 1834, Louis Napoleon Bonaparte was always surrounded by various conspirators and dangerous elements who were dissatisfied with the country, even fanatical admirers, and self-righteous liars.

A man named Persigny approached Louis Bonaparte.

This Persigny had once joined the French army, but was always a low-level officer; later he went to Bohemia as an editor-in-chief, but was soon fired; in the end he found that only Bonapartism was his way to the sky.

Under the introduction of the Napoleonic poet Belmonte, Persigny met Louis Bonaparte and they hit it off immediately.

Persigny advocated that heroes do not need to care about the current situation, but should create the current situation, and these words deeply moved Louis Bonaparte.

In fact, Louis Bonaparte never gave up action, which was exactly in line with Persigny's proposition.

So the two decided to go to Strasbourg to create the current situation.

In the Austrian Empire, several small-scale uprisings were quickly suppressed.

Without the French and Prussians, the Austrian dignitaries seemed to have become frost-bitten eggplants.

Among the Hungarians, due to the loss of power of Prince Ertházy, they needed to elect a new leader.

But everyone's strength was about the same, so things became interesting.

The Hungarian nobles suddenly turned to the Austrian side collectively, and they would be loyal servants of Austria before deciding the new boss. .
