Why? Why do you hate me so much? We are all poor people. Are we fighting for your interests? Why do we have to kill each other?
Blanqui couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out even if he was dead!
Before dying, he let out the last roar of his life. Why, exactly why?
"Why? Damn it, you still don't know why? Without you, His Majesty the Emperor would not have been captured, and without you, the Empire would not have collapsed!"
"I am a loyal warrior of Napoleon III. Everything I have pursued in my life has been ruined by you bastards!"
The French veteran's squad leader's eyes were red and swollen, and he was extremely excited. He obviously wanted Blanqui to be a wise man, or he just wanted to vent his emotions.
The sharp dagger placed on Blanqui's neck did not cut off the artery, and the other soldiers also stopped killing, and they all became equally excited.
The sudden attack caused a lot of casualties. Only Blanqui and four of his men were lucky enough to be alive. These five people heard the most shocking words in his life.
The veteran pressed Blanqui to the ground with red eyes. He controlled the dagger in his hand and suppressed the urge to cut it off, and shouted loudly!
"I entered the military camp when I was sixteen and followed His Majesty all my life in all the wars. I participated in the Crimean War when I was eighteen. After that, I also went on expeditions to Mexico and North Africa!"
"I'm just an illiterate peasant boy. Without Your Majesty, what am I? I'm just a piece of shit!"
"But for a person like me, I followed His Majesty and became a sergeant... My commander has promised me! As long as I am willing to study, as long as I can pass the basic examination in the military camp, I can be promoted to second lieutenant immediately. Got it!"
"My whole life has been ruined by you!"
"You bastards, let me show you how I got here in this life!" The veteran pressed Blanqui with his knee, took out something from his pocket with his free hands and pinned it to his chest.
"See clearly! This is the Silver Knight Medal of the Legion of Honor... I earned it by working hard in Crimea! But because of you, all these honors have turned into a joke!"
Blanqui squinted his eyes as hard as he could, and he saw the shiny medal that had been polished. It looked like it had to be polished several times a day.
Silver Knight Medal of the Legion of Honor, this is the lowest level in the medal series designated by Napoleon, but anyone familiar with the Bonaparte family's military system knows that Napoleon did not award many medals in his life, and he was far from as good as the Prussians. Obsessed with medals.
The amount awarded is very small, so even the lowest level is very precious. One can imagine how loyal this soldier is to the French Emperor!
Blanqui struggled to retort, "It was Napoleon III who destroyed the empire by himself! It was his incompetence that destroyed everything... Why should the responsibility be put on our heads? Why..."
The veteran put the dagger to his neck again. "Liars! You are a group of liars! You are still trying to deceive us..."
"Your Majesty did not want to fight this war. It was you who disrupted the order of the French Empire through your constant riots and revolutions... His Majesty had no choice but to use military means to prepare..."
The veteran scratched his head and thought for a while, "By the way... prepare to divert the social crisis! Your Majesty hopes to use war to gain territory and compensation, and then satisfy your greedy appetite!"
"Yes! That's it... His Majesty has forced you to have no choice but to rely on war to gain benefits, and only then can you resolve domestic conflicts!"
"You are the culprit! Including the timing of the war, it was you who forced it! You marched in Paris all day long, forcing the emperor to take action against Prussia early, and that's why His Majesty declared war when he was not ready!"
"You are the worst people, you are the most bastards!"
Blanqui finally realized his mistake. His negotiations completely ignored two extremely important life gates!
This veteran has long said that he participated in the Crimean War, so looking at his current age, Blanqui should be able to guess that this soldier was only seventeen or eighteen years old when he fought in Crimea!
For a person who entered the military camp and fought with the emperor in his youth, after decades of brainwashing, they have long since worshiped the emperor from the bottom of their hearts!
The Bonaparte family itself acted like a professional soldier. Why were the French troops under the French Emperor the most elite? Because these people are professional soldiers who have been fighting all their lives.
When you enter boot camp as a teenager, as long as you don't die halfway, you can work until you retire!
After you retire, different levels of pensions will be given according to your military rank, so you can enjoy your retirement!
Professional soldiers are not engaged in production. They spend their whole life fighting, training, and staying in military camps. These people are out of touch with society and are not easily disturbed by chaotic thoughts outside.
They don't understand or hear all the new trends in society, which guarantees their loyalty to the emperor!
Can such a person be bribed easily? Blanqui was so wrong!
The second fatal mistake was that Blanqui underestimated the structure of these soldiers. Since they were isolated in an environment and had no way of contacting higher classes, he could not quite understand the reality of the two hundred thousand francs.
To put it bluntly, even if he is a poor man, he himself does not believe that he can have two hundred thousand francs, so he naturally thinks that Blanqui is lying.
A veteran of the royalist party who was completely loyal to the emperor, and then he decided that Blanqui had used 200,000 francs to deceive people... The result of such negotiations was simply a disaster!
But it was already too late, and Blanqui did not regret taking the medicine!
"I understand, I understand everything! Someone must have taught you these words. Someone is deliberately instilling this wrong idea, right?"
"Otherwise, with your IQ, how could you possibly come up with the phrase to divert social crisis?"
Everything is already clear. How can uneducated veterans know what it means to transfer social crisis? This shows that someone has told him and instilled this kind of hatred in him!
Those little people in the darkness have already begun to take action. They have begun to pour the dirty water of the failure of the Franco-Prussian War and the collapse of the French Empire on the commune!
And it’s not just one or two people, but the whole of France who is jointly throwing dirty water!
Just imagine, even a small squad leader knows the word "deflect social crisis". This shows how thorough this brainwashing propaganda is and how high its coverage is.
"Oh God! These people are building public opinion before preparing to do something evil! Are they really going to kill us all?"
