Napoleon II Reborn

A new month is coming, I hope everyone will continue to support Xiaoyu! vote! collect! Xiaoyu is here to thank everyone, believe Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu will not let you down!

After arranging the garrison of the army and leaving the second, fifth, and seventh armies to garrison the newly controlled area, Napoleon led the army back to Paris on December 27.

Passing through Germany and crossing the Rhine, wherever you go, church bells and drums are ringing, and flowers are tied into countless triumphal arches. On January 12, 1806, Napoleon led the army back to Paris. The legions returned to their quarters, and the Imperial Guard and the Guards would pass through Paris to be inspected by the people.

When the soldiers wore brand-new military uniforms (obtained from the logistics department specially for this review), carried rifles with shining bayonets that had been carefully wiped, and passed under the Arc de Triomphe at a neat pace, the whole Paris is seething. People's applause and cheers rang out. Countless flower petals were thrown from upstairs by the people who had prepared for a long time, and the passionate girl even pounced on it, grabbed a soldier and gnawed at it. Seeing Xiao Jie felt chills: This is too crazy. But then I thought, if I didn't follow Napoleon, if I didn't ride a horse but walked with the infantry, I don't know if there will be a beautiful woman who will take the initiative.

When Napoleon appeared with his marshals and generals, the atmosphere was pushed to the highest point. All saluted their great emperor, shouting "Long live the Emperor! Long live France." Waves of sound soared into the sky. Xiao Jie, who was following Napoleon on horseback, deeply felt the fanaticism of the Paris people at this moment, even though their lives had been facing extreme difficulties for the past two or three months. But when they learned that their emperor had won the war, they seemed to forget everything at once, and their hearts were completely filled with joy and pride. After all, they are now almost contending with the whole of Europe with the power of a country.

The people of Paris were in a frenzy, with great **** and banquets in honor of the Emperor, who had been helpless only a few weeks before. As part of the festivities, Marshal Berthier, head of the empire's hunts, arranged hunts for Napoleon, including the Corsican favorite rabbit hunt. Berthier's own favorite was deer hunting. In order to arrange rabbit hunting activities, Berthier had to go through a lot of trouble to buy thousands of captured hares.

On the day of hunting, everything was ready, and the rabbits in huge cages were sent to the hunting ground in the forest. Napoleon, Xiao Jie and the marshals also came to the hunting ground in gorgeous hunting clothes. Then, a signal was sent to let the rabbits go, and thousands of rabbits jumped out, rejoicing to be free. However, when the hunters were about to kill them, these rabbits not only did not run away, but instead ran straight to the hunters in groups.

At first Napoleon and his marshals couldn't believe their eyes and laughed heartily at the rabbit's stupidity. But when more and more rabbits came running towards them, they couldn't help but feel a little worried. Napoleon began to order the coachmen and servants around him to drive away the surrounding rabbits with sticks, but it didn't work; the rabbits ignored the emperor's dignity and actually hugged him, climbed between his legs, and even climbed onto his body. on the arm. He tried to drive away with the whip in his hand, but there were more and more rabbits. In the end his adjutant and coachman had to rescue him, and he was safely returned to the carriage, which was soon surrounded by rabbits.

It's a bit of a narrow escape! Berthier, who was embarrassed by this incident, later learned that these rabbits were not wild rabbits captured but domestic rabbits bought with money. Napoleon, who defeated hundreds of thousands of Russian-Austrian coalition forces and achieved brilliant results, was forced to flee in embarrassment by a group of rabbits. It turned out that they mistook Napoleon for the owner who fed them.

The hunting activity was also cancelled, and Napoleon was also very angry. He didn't expect that he would be embarrassed by a group of rabbits, and he was also very dissatisfied with Berthier's treating the domestic rabbits as wild rabbits, which caused today's farce .

On January 20, France and Austria held final negotiations in Pressburg. Under Napoleon's strong request, Foreign Minister Talleyrand made very harsh demands on Austria. Although Austria was very unwilling to agree, they had nothing to do at this time. Their army has been completely lost, and the capital Vienna is still under the control of the French army. If they do not agree to the request made by France, the three French legions stationed in southern Germany and Austria are enough to lose Russia and Russia now. Austria, backed by Prussia, was wiped from the map. So in the end, Austria signed this humiliating peace treaty.

The Treaty of Pressburg stipulated that Austria should pay reparations to France. In addition to reconfirming the validity of the cession clauses in the Treaty of Lunéville and the Treaty of Campoformio, Austria was forced to newly cede Istria and Dalma to the Kingdom of Italy. The Habsburgs were again forced to recognize Napoleon as King of Italy. Napoleon's German allies were rewarded for their support of France, the Elector of Württemberg was elevated to the title of Sovereign of the Domain, the Kingdom of Württemberg was established, and Napoleon's new ally, the Elector of Baden, was established as a Duchy. The peace treaty declared Austria's withdrawal from the Third Coalition, and Napoleon received 80 million francs from the defeated King of Austria. This was almost one-third of Austria's 1805 fiscal revenue. After this war and the cession of reparations, Austria's vitality was severely damaged, and it no longer posed a threat to France for a long time. Napoleon can also use this time to deal with other European countries.

"Never has a victor imposed such unacceptable conditions on the conquered", commented Mio, a good friend of Joseph Bonaparte. But compared with the series of treaties signed by Napoleon since then, this is nothing more than nothing. "Charlemagne is the conqueror, not the founder," Talleyrand said in the Senate when Napoleon first proclaimed the Kingdom of Italy on March 18, 1805. But died unexpectedly... Like these great men... We have seen that His Majesty the Emperor marched too quickly on the Eurasian continent." The foreign minister went on to preach that Napoleon is no longer in the age of warriors. He is a politician and should use " A conquest with gentle wisdom...should renew France's understanding of the necessity of order and peace". It was this sermon of Talleyrand that expressed his wish, and Napoleon was more angry than pleased with his opinion. In May 1805, Napoleon still put another crown on his head ~www.NovelMTL.com~ and announced loudly in Italian: "God gave me this crown, please do not touch it." everything.

What Napoleon did in Pressburg was in the same line. While plundering Austria, it exacerbated the disintegration of Austria, which had a profound impact on Europe. Only Talleyrand seems to have foreseen the tragic consequences of Napoleon's actions. "I insist that the recent victories of His Majesty the Emperor should enable him to ensure the recuperation of Europe and the protection of the civilized world from the invasion of barbarians (meaning Russia)." Finally, the Foreign Secretary concluded:

His Majesty the Kaiser is now in a position to either bring down the Austrian Monarchy or to support or restore it. If the Austrian monarchy is destroyed, even His Majesty will not be able to clean up the mess and rebuild the old European order. It is extremely necessary for the country to exist as a whole. Indeed, it is essential to the future security of civilized nations.

Talleyrand explained: "The Kingdom of Austria is composed of many principalities, each with its own language, religion, political and civil administration systems, and the only one who can unite them is their monarch." The disputes among the princes of the empire; the contradictions between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church, and more than 300 duchies were relatively stable under the unification of the Habsburg dynasty. "Now, the defeated and humiliated King of Austria needs the tolerance and understanding of the conqueror...All true friends of your Majesty look to your political prudence and magnanimity."

But unfortunately, Napoleon doesn't seem to realize this, all he cares about is the constant conquest and occupation~www.NovelMTL.com~ at ~www.NovelMTL.com~
