Paris is in complete chaos! Under the secret instigation of countless Prussian spies and heavily paid gangsters, hooligans, and scoundrels, what was originally a peaceful demonstration that was harmless to humans and animals quickly became full of beatings, smashing, looting, burning, and suppression.
At this moment, the Paris police headquarters has completely exploded. The Prime Minister of the Empire, Emile Olivier, was stunned with shock. He listened to the news brought back by the police below and said in disbelief.
"Are you kidding me? There's chaos in the city? Are workers starting to attack the police in a planned way? That's nonsense. How can they have such courage?"
"Report to the Prime Minister! This is the fact. Listen to the gunfire all over the city! These thugs have gone crazy. They smashed, looted and burned the surrounding shops and houses, and attacked our police and snatched their weapons! There are already many thugs at this moment. There are guns and ammunition inside..."
"It's not right! It's not right! It's not right..." Prime Minister Olivier was spinning back and forth in the room like a trapped animal.
"Impossible, there must be something wrong here! Before this operation, Blanqui had asked someone to deliver a message to the empire. They didn't even accept secret arms funding from the Chinese! How could they provoke an active riot now? "
"Even an idiot knows there is something wrong here! Even if these thugs want to rebel, they must at least be prepared, right? They only have a few weapons and ammunition in their hands, and they want to fight with the more than 200,000 of us stationed in Paris. Fighting with elite troops?"
"What's going on in your head?"
What did Prime Minister Olivier think? These policemen no longer cared, they surrounded angrily, "Your Excellency Prime Minister! You must make a decision! Our people are bleeding, and now police officers are killed by angry mobs anytime and anywhere!"
"Order to send out the army immediately! Order to send out the army immediately! The police alone cannot withstand it without the army to suppress it!"
How can Prime Minister Olivier have the power to command the army? He put on his cloak with a grimace and strode out, "I'm going to see His Majesty. Only His Majesty can give orders in this situation. None of us have the power to use the army!"
The high-ranking police officials in the room were so angry that they stamped their feet, "How did this happen? How did this happen? When will you invite the army from His Majesty? How many people will we have to die! Paris is bleeding. Ah, Paris is bleeding!"
"What an idiot! Who made these plans? What kind of idiot would make such a plan..."
Someone rushed up to him and covered his mouth tightly. "Are you desperate for your life? All orders are issued by His Majesty. Do you dare to question His Majesty's decision?"
The words frightened everyone to the point of white hair and sweat. The loudmouthed man just lowered his head and no longer dared to speak nonsense.
"The Prime Minister is gone, and now we have to rely on ourselves! Our brothers are losing their lives every minute. How long will it take for His Majesty's order to be issued? Half an hour or an hour? How many more of us will have to die by then? ?”
The senior officials of the Paris police present looked fiercely and said fiercely, "There is no other way. At this moment, we can only save the lives of our brothers. Send an order to all the police to gather together to fight and fight back with all their strength. We will be killed." All existing weapons and ammunition should be distributed, and we must not tolerate these thugs!"
At the critical moment, the policemen were desperate. No one was willing to let their men die in vain. In the bloody conflict, their ferocity was also aroused.
After one o'clock in the afternoon, the smell of blood in Paris became even stronger.
On the street, mounted policemen surrounded one arms carriage after another, running wildly on the street.
"All policemen assemble immediately, assemble immediately! Distribute weapons and prepare to fight!"
The mounted police escorted the arms carriage and ran wildly on the street, shouting loudly at the same time. The lone policemen, who were being chased by the workers, ran over like lost dogs after seeing their owners.
"God bless you, you are here! If it were any later, we would all die here..."
"How are your casualties? How is your police station doing now?"
"It's over... I don't know what's going on in the police station! Of the six brothers in our patrol team, only three of us came out alive. The remaining three brothers are all dead!"
"Damn! These thugs deserve to go to hell!" the mounted policeman pointed at the carriage loaded with arms and shouted, "What are you waiting for? There are rifles and ammunition on it, get armed and fight these damn bastards!"
A brand-new Chassebou rifle was distributed to the police. This is the latest rifle model in France. It is equipped with a needle rifle rifle at the rear and is equipped with paper shell ammunition. Although it does not have the latest brass fixed ammunition, it fires The speed has far exceeded the others.
The red-eyed police officers lined up in a row and aimed at the rioters rushing forward, shouting "Brothers, take revenge!"
Bang bang bang... gunshots were fired, and a hail of bullets swept away countless revolting people.
"Fire, fire, keep firing! Overwhelm them with the most intense firepower and kill these thugs!"
The rate of fire of the new rifles is so fast. The policemen quickly pull the bolts and then load and fire. The people opposite are all demonstrators. There is no need to aim at all. As long as you pull the trigger, you will definitely hit. Target.
At first, the heroic insurrectionists roared with anger and bravely moved forward despite the hail of bullets. However, under rounds of hail of bullets, the leading labor leaders were killed and injured in large areas. There were wailing sounds everywhere.
"Comrades, leave me alone and keep moving forward... We must not let our brothers die in vain... You should go ahead and do it!"
"Uprising! Today is the moment of armed uprising... The enemy's massacre has completely exposed the true face of the reactionary emperor. If we retreat, we will be in doom and gloom..."
The dying man held one hand helplessly in the air, shouting revolutionary slogans with blood spurting from his mouth, but it could not change the situation in front of him at all.
The injured worker leaders crawled forward desperately on the ground. He used his last bit of strength to encourage the latecomers to move forward bravely, pointing his blood-stained hands in the direction of the enemy!
But war is not changed by human emotions. The gap in firepower cannot be bridged by a few exciting slogans!
Full of murderous intent, the mounted policemen drew their sabers and began to mobilize their horses. "The cavalry is ready to charge! Cover with rifle fire!"
Amidst the gunfire, the mounted police had already begun to charge, and their strong horses lined up, blocking the entire long street.
These mounted policemen didn't care about the injured on the ground at all. Their horse hooves as big as a bowl trampled on the head of the dying man, just like crushing a watermelon, and red and white splattered all over the ground.
"Go to hell, you thugs!" The sharp saber rose from the air and struck down hard. The screams were endless, and the tall war horses knocked away the thin workers.
The policemen on foot quickly charged forward with their rifles in hand, firing fiercely in the gap between the horses.
Under the one-sided firepower advantage, a small armed team of more than 40 police officers quickly overwhelmed the demonstration of more than 300 people. The situation on the street suddenly became one-sided!
