The leftists represented by Blanqui do have some unrealistic romantic feelings, and the more politicians come from the bottom, the more obvious this characteristic becomes.
You must know that politics also involves professionalism and inheritance. The profession of a politician is inherently different from the way ordinary people think about problems. They are unusually calm, rarely have mood swings, and will not be swayed by emotions...
Governing a big country is like cooking small fresh food. This is the principle. Governing a country cannot be as emotional as a child. If someone scolds you, you will use all the strength of the country, send troops and start a war?
Angry young people can think this way for their lust, but politicians who really govern the country must not think this way!
Most of the labor leaders of the Paris Commune came from rough backgrounds. Although they had received a certain degree of education, there was still a gap between them and people with real academic backgrounds.
Their emotions are closer to those of the people at the bottom, they are more likely to be angry and emotional, and they do not consider things deeply enough. The key is that their nationalistic feelings can easily make them fall into irrational traps.
How can the current situation in France be resolved? In fact, all top politicians have already understood that starting negotiations immediately is already a losing battle. If we continue to fight, we will only lose more and more.
Negotiating quickly is actually about cutting your losses quickly. Just like a gambler, you already know that you are possessed by a bad spirit today, and you already know that the opponent is a master scammer, so you should quickly admit your losses and leave the market. This is the best choice. .
But public opinion will always force the government. At this juncture, who dares to talk about negotiating with Prussia? Who dares to admit his failure?
If this is to cede land and pay compensation, the angry people will not be able to eat human flesh alive!
Under the turmoil of famous doctors, all rational politicians have shut up, and war has become the only option!
But today, the brutal massacre at Sharon Tong Gate made Blanqui unable to sit still. He decided to go out of the city secretly to contact the Chinese.
No matter what, we must keep the negotiation bridge with the enemy. This line cannot be broken!
This is a smart person. Even in World War I and World War II, would the two camps kill each other miserably? In fact, the high-level officials of both parties have not cut off the channels of communication, and private and secret negotiations have never stopped.
Even in Switzerland, hostile parties can conduct some shady transactions!
Politicians consider balance, interests, and success or failure, while the people want to release their emotions more and relieve their hatred!
During the siege of Paris, why did Porte de Chapelle in the north become a very strange area? Not only did both sides deploy the least amount of troops, but there were even two cultural relic dealers smuggling back and forth?
In the final analysis, the Chapelle Gate is an eye in the chess game, a retreat left by both sides. Secret negotiations can be conducted here, intelligence can be bought and sold, and sometimes it can even become an escape channel for big shots.
Blanqui was full of worries about this battle. The massacre during the day made him worried. This time he truly understood the old general's painstaking efforts. It turned out that the decisive battle in the field was really a professional and technical job!
No matter what, let's contact the Chinese to see if there is any chance of reaching a deeper agreement and see if Xiao Letian can mediate.
Blanqui was mentally prepared to negotiate a truce.
But he never expected that not only did he not see Xiao Letian, he didn't even see the two kings Luo Huo and Sima Yun. He was turned away by the Chinese confinement camp.
It wasn't until he left that Sima Yun sent an interpreter to bring him a message: "The previous commitments are still valid, but if you want to start negotiations again, the form will have to change..."
This statement is very straightforward, and the subtext is that the city of Metz has surrendered, the only French regiment in the north that can contain the army has surrendered, Paris is in danger, and France is about to be finished.
Is negotiation necessary at this time? Even after negotiating, there are no good terms for you. If you want to negotiate good terms, you still have to work hard on the battlefield!
Blanqui's mouth was full of bitterness immediately. The current situation gave him a deep sense of powerlessness. In the past, he thought he could control the situation in France, but today he realized how difficult it is to control a huge country. Complicated matters.
When Blanqui returned to Paris, he did not know that Eugene and Andrew had been secretly spying on him in the dark. Due to the deliberate connivance of the left and the right, the business of these two smugglers was getting bigger and bigger.
The soldiers around the Porte de Chapelle had been bribed by the two of them to become almost their own, and every move here could not escape their eyes.
Both of them were die-hard followers of Thiers. This news was quickly delivered to Thiers by Eugene, but he never expected that what greeted Eugene was a jaw-dropping scene.
Thiers' luxurious villa was in a state of chaos as if it was about to be moved, with all valuable and valuable documents being packed into boxes.
After seeing Eugene, Thiers smiled and said, "You came just in time. I have to ask you to send these personal belongings of mine to the outside of the city... I am ready to leave the city!"
"Ah? Are you leaving Paris? Where are you going?"
“First go home, then go to Versailles!”
Eugene covered his mouth tightly and did not dare to make a sound. He had already realized the big boss's plan. He was going to abandon the provisional government. It looked like General Trochu would definitely lose in the Battle of Paris. !
When Thiers heard Eugene's report, he sneered and said, "You are so sick that you rushed to the doctor! What did you do long ago? Only now do you know how to establish contact with Prussia and the Chinese... Haha, it's too late!"
"Ignore him... Remember, no matter how much money you spend, you must bribe all the guards at the Chapelle Gate. I will use this gate at the critical moment!"
"Yes, I'll do it right now. Even if I lose everything, I still have to complete your task!" After saying that, Eugene turned around and left, taking away a batch of personal belongings of the congressmen.
No one knows that Xiao Letian has secretly returned to Paris at this moment, but he is not in the barracks, but conducting inspections in the area controlled by the Prussian Army in northwest France.
In particular, the focus of the investigation is the channel from the Seine River to the Atlantic Ocean!
After receiving the latest battle report from Paris, Xiao Letian shook his head helplessly, "Trochu's provisional national defense government will be over in two months at most. It's a pity..."
"Pass my order to station two battalions in the small town of Lemiro on the banks of the Seine. This will become our material transfer point..."
The development of the current situation is exactly as Xiao Letian judged. It is already late October, and the entire forest in France has been dyed with yellow leaves covering the ground.
On October 28th, winter suddenly arrived in France. Three consecutive days of northwest wind brought fierce winds and cooling. The howling wind blew away the last leaves. The winter of 1870 finally arrived, and it was colder than previous years. Much.
