C2982 Paris diangong

Thiers still wanted to sell him his battle theory, but this time, his words were even more bewitching, as he and Gan Bida were talking about how to make peace!

Gan Bida did not know that Thiers had already sided with the enemy.

First, look at the north, the Mace City was currently under the control of Marshal Ba Zan, and had undergone a large scale military expansion many years ago.

This was a very heavily fortified military town, it was definitely easy to defend and hard to attack!

Most importantly, a portion of Mace's sentries who disguised themselves as ordinary citizens managed to escape and establish a connection with Paris. They brought shocking news.

So it turned out that the Mace City was not the one hundred thousand people that everyone was thinking of, but rather, a total of one hundred and seventy thousand people were trapped inside the city!

When Marshal Ba Zan brought the headquarters and retreated towards the Mace, he never thought that there would be so many scattered French troops in the forests, mountains, and villages along the way.

These were all platoon ranks of small troops. There were even some battalion ranks that had been separated from the main camp in the occupied territories by the Prussian during the war.

They had no choice but to be cautious in their guerrilla hit, and when they met Ba Zan, they would immediately throw themselves into his embrace.

They stayed put as they walked. When they reached the Mace, Ba Zan raised his army flag and all the warriors guarding the area of the Mace gathered over.

In the end, when they counted the number of people, the Mace City actually poured in one hundred and seventy thousand of Empire's elite troops, all of them veterans that the French Emperor had raised for many years!

From the time French Emperor surrendered to now, there were a total of three large-scale battles in Mace City, and all one hundred and seventy thousand soldiers had managed to resist. Not only did the Prussian not take down the city, the number of casualties was even higher than that of the French army.

At that moment, as long as the Ba Zan Corps could get some supplies or a reinforcement force with ten to twenty thousand people, their morale would naturally rise.

There are Mace City in the north, Orleans in the south!

The Southern Regiment had already changed its name to the Ruval Army, and was stationed on the borders of the Loire River to confront the army of Prince Karl.

Although the Luval Legion were all new troops from the south, their connection with the rear was clear, and they could obtain supplies from the south in a steady stream.

Whether it was the source of the troops or the supplies, it was not a problem.

The Lurker Army and Prince Karl had already formed a strategy of pulling the saws, using Orleans City as a tree to pull the saws, going back and forth to fight and kill!

He believed that one day, when the size of the Rovan Regiment reached a certain level of strength, there would be no way for them to escape a wild victory!

It was possible that both the north and the south could give birth to a victory, which would boost the morale of the French army. Of course, the most likely outcome was still Paris, the heart of all the wars.

Thiers stood up and walked towards the window. He lit a cigarette for himself and looked at the restless Paris in the darkness and said helplessly, "A metropolis of two million people, the equipment in the warehouse is enough to arm a seven hundred thousand army …"

"The total number of troops that we have now is close to five hundred thousand... With this kind of strength, how could he not fight a victory that would boost the morale of the troops? "Why can't I …"

Thiers's sorrowful tone infected Gan Bida, and the Minister of the Interior stood up. "I have also advised General Trochu before, but the old general refused to send his troops."

"As for Blanqui and the others, they would not listen to our orders at all … Forget it, forget it, I'm going out of the city! "

"Where are you going?" Thiers asked.

"I will go to the south, I will personally lead the Ruval Army, the France needs a victory, then I will give him a victory …"

"Representative Thiers, please maintain your communication with the enemy. Wait for my good news … China should indeed cease its war and negotiations should have already begun! "

"No, it's too dangerous …" On the surface, Thiers looked extremely worried, but inside his heart, he was smiling like a blossoming flower. He was very clear that the so-called victory was definitely not going to happen.

With the current situation, the more China took the initiative, the faster it would fail!

Even if you, Gan Bida, were to win this battle by a fluke, when Napoleon III is released, the royalist party in the south of France would also stir up a storm and stir up a ruckus.

Therefore, just a little bit of victory would cause the news of French Emperor's escape from prison to be completely thrown into disarray!

Of course, Gan Bida did not care about the danger. He said his goodbyes and left Thiers's villa, taking advantage of the night to go back and arrange his work. He was prepared to leave Paris in a week's time.

But he never would have thought that the Prussian would suddenly increase the number of troops in the last few days. On September 19th, the encirclement of Paris was officially closed!

The entire Paris was shocked. They watched as the last route to the west of the city was cut off by the Prussian, and the last batch of supplies was blocked off and taken away by the Prussian army.

At that moment, countless cries of despair could be heard from the crowd. Paris had truly been surrounded, and the last of the breathable gaps had been firmly sealed!

The Prussian army military officers who were mounted on their horses were swaggering back and forth outside the range of the Paris fortifications. They were laughing non-stop as they watched the final goods carriage flee into the city in fright.

The angry French army opened fire on these arrogant cavalry soldiers, but the bullets had already landed about ten meters away from them.

That night, before the Interim Defence Government could speak, the Central Committee of the 20 districts issued a declaration of battle!

"In view of the experience that the great French Revolution has given us, war for all is the most advantageous weapon to defend against all invaders … Two million Parisians united. We can defeat all enemies! "

There was a horn all over Paris, and people gathered all night to give speeches to boost morale. The recruiting office was full of people, and many children of fifteen or sixteen were armed.

In the entire city's fervent atmosphere of preparation for war, only the Shabelle Sect was an exception. This was the defensive area of the National Guard because this place was close to the Montmartre plateau.

However, the defense here was the weakest in Paris. Even on the night of the Paris siege, Eugene and Andrew had even sent a carriage full of cultural relics to trade with the Chinese.

On the cave entrance, a pair of wolf-like eyes stared at Eugene and Andrew, "Have you found the evidence?" "Follow them, and if there's no one else, make your move …"

Eugene and Andrew never thought that not even twenty minutes after leaving the city, they would encounter an attack from a group of National Guard.

Raoult Rigo cruelly sneered, "Colluding with the enemy during a war to sell out the country? Doing business with your enemies, how dare you … Take her away and put her in prison … "

However, a few pieces of cloth blocked their mouths, causing Eugene, Andrew and a few workers to be thrown onto the carriage, and then dragged back to the city along with the cultural relics.

Seeing the artifact returning to the city, Raoult Rigo turned his head to look at the two people kneeling on the ground in the darkness.

"What a blind person!" It was truly unsightly … I have to use torture to admit my identity as a Secret Police … If you don't want to fight, then don't say anything, right? "

"Don't forget, I am the Chief of Police of Paris! "You are all under my command, and will not listen to my orders and kill without mercy …"

Before he could finish his sentence, two of the National Guard staff members kicked one of the Secret Police s down and shot him right in the head!

With a "pa", brain matter and fresh blood sprayed all over the other person's body!
