With the support of the financial supporter's father, the French Revolutionary Movement rose again. The miserable life provided a soil for survival for the spread of revolutionary ideas.

Without waiting for the French government to react, a massive anti-war and anti-hunger movement began in Paris and spread rapidly across the country.

If someone observes carefully, they will find something interesting: the people who supported this war the most and the people who opposed the war the most are actually the same wave.

People are still those people, and the only thing that changes is that many traces of time have been added to everyone's faces. It can be seen that everyone's life has not been very easy over the past year.

The war that originally thought that the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves turned into a war of attrition in national strength. A large number of French young men walked onto the battlefield, including their relatives.

It would have been fine if the battlefield continued to win, but the result is that the French army is constantly defeated. The miserable life and concerns about their relatives forced everyone to stand up and oppose the war.

If no accidents occur, this group of people will be dissatisfied with the conditions for cessation after the armistice treaty is signed and they will jump out to punish the traitors.

It can only be said that the government of Napoleon IV was unlucky and happened to catch up with the most chaotic era of French thought.

Just when the revolutionary movement was in full swing, on September 1, 1891, a large-scale uprising broke out in Rome. Unlike any previous anti-French uprising, the leaders of this uprising became nobles and missionaries.

Everyone pushed the wall down, and the French were about to end. The local Italian powerful people who had long been dissatisfied with the French finally took practical actions.

At the beginning of the uprising, it instigated the Italian soldiers in the defenders, and with the church as a cover, the rebels quickly seized the city of Rome with the help of the inside and outside.

After the uprising was successful, Pope Leo XIII, as the religious leader, issued the "Declaration of Anti-Aggression" in the Vatican, calling on all Italian people to rise up and expel the French.

After receiving the news, Franz's first reaction was that the climax of the Italian independence movement had come. Without any hesitation, he immediately ordered the division of troops to attack south and support Italy's national liberation movement.

...

At the Palace of Versailles, the deteriorating situation finally forced Napoleon IV to the edge of the cliff, and it was time to make a choice.

Army Secretary Luskigna: "With the fall of the Roman region, the deterioration of the situation in Italy has become a foregone conclusion. At present, we do not have enough troops to invest in Italy to clean up the mess.

The Ministry of Army recommends temporarily abandoning the Italian region, retreating to the Alps, shrinking its troops and returning to the country to carry out local defense. There is no need to continue, including the anxious battle of guarding Turin."

The facts are right in front of you. Italy, which once was the infinite glory of the Great French Empire, has now become a quagmire. Continuing to be trapped in it will have no value except for consuming national strength in vain.

Military terms, retreating to the Alps is undoubtedly the best choice. France can use the least force to ensure the safety of the southern line, and then invest the saved troops to other battlefields.

The best in military terms does not mean the best in politics. In a sense, there is no difference between France's abandonment of Italy and direct surrender.

After losing the Italian region, France's weakness was completely exposed. It can be imagined that the anti-French alliance will definitely not give up this opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Those countries that originally worked but did not work hard but were just making up their numbers would also rush to rush off a piece of meat from France.

Even though I know, no one objected. Everyone knows that the problem now is no longer whether to give up on Italy, but how to carry out the aftermath.

After glanced at everyone, Napoleon IV said slowly: "Well, let's implement the plan of the Army Department!

It seems that Austria is preparing to restore those Italian states. You should know what to do later, right?"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. We will deal with it properly and will not leave it to the enemy..."

Seeing that Napoleon IV was not in high spirits, Luskinia's words came to an abrupt end.

Needless to say, it is naturally destruction. For a long time in the future, the reincarnated Italian states will be enemies of France. Taking advantage of the opportunity now, we will naturally weaken these potential enemies.

In a sense, the more severe the destruction France now is, the more reconstruction funds needed after the war. The Italian states naturally have no money, and the troubles fall on Austria again.

As for the revenge that France was joking after the war, it seems that if the enemy will show mercy now.

Since the outbreak of the war, France and Austria have had contacts secretly several times, but they have not reached an agreement, otherwise the war would have ended long ago.

I really thought France was so hard that she would not cry until she saw the coffin. In fact, it was not because Austria's conditions were too harsh and the Paris government could not accept it, so she survived until now.

Then, everyone had no choice but to find that the war was really undesirable. With the continuous defeat of the French army on the battlefield, Austria's conditions became increasingly harsh, and the gap between the two sides was a big one.

If the Vienna government is willing to make concessions and use the ceasefire conditions of half a year ago, no, even if the ceasefire conditions of three months ago, Napoleon IV would agree to it at once.

There is no way, after the cessation conditions half a year ago, Austria asked France to give up French Africa, return to the pre-war border line, and pay a certain amount of war reparations.

The French army was not defeated, and most of French Africa was still in the hands of the French army. The Paris government naturally could not accept such conditions.

It was different three months ago. French Africa could no longer satisfy Austria's appetite. Not only did it increase huge war reparations, but it also required France to give up the Italian region.

The Paris government naturally did not dare to agree to such conditions of losing power and humiliating the country. Before he could react, the French army had two defeats on the front line, and then Russia, West and Switzerland were also pulled onto the chariot by Austria.

The conditions for contacting Austria are even more excessive. Not only are there previous conditions, but they also put forward territorial requirements for the local French country.

Moreover, it is not a little bit. Not only does Austria want to take back the hometown of Shenluo, but the neighbors around also have to share it.

It is impossible to say that if Napoleon IV dared to agree to the conditions that would make France smaller, the Palace of Versailles would have to change its master.

Prime Minister Terence Bulkin: "Your Majesty, those guys seem to have noticed something, they all live in seclusion, and some even left Paris.

The revolutionary party suddenly became active, and the recent strikes and violent incidents have been witnessed by the revolutionary party.

The power of the revolutionary party alone is not able to plan so many actions, so there must be other strengths behind it.

They are the only ones who have the ability and motivation to do such things. If we don’t take action, they may have to take action.”

It can be seen that Terence Bulkin was very afraid of the consortium and even used alternative references when discussing matters.

There is no way. The last politician who publicly advocated suppressing the consortium has now grown grass on his graves.

This also contains the responsibility of Napoleon IV. He was busy seizing power while taking power while in charge of power, and was exploited by the consortium. The factions in the government that advocated suppressing the consortium were marginalized.

When Napoleon IV reacted, the political forces that advocated suppressing the consortium had collapsed under the consortium's gold and yuan offensive.

There is no way, the moral integrity of politicians is so high. In the era of Napoleon III, a powerful emperor suppressed him. All politicians who dared to get closer to the consortium went home to farm. If you want to get involved in the officialdom, you must hate the consortium.

The statement that "one emperor is the emperor and another minister" may be a little exaggerated in the European continent. However, Napoleon IV was not a normal change of imperial power. There was a period of time when he was regent of the ministers, and no one in the Bonaparte family controlled the overall situation. It was inevitable that the power change occurred after the personal expedition.

Napoleon IV, who was young and energetic, had far less political skills than he is now, and the Bonaparte dynasty did not have the assistance of powerful figures, so people inevitably took advantage of loopholes.

This is somewhat similar to Chongzhen, but he is busy seizing power and forgets to maintain a balance between political factions.

However, Napoleon IV's political skills were still stronger, and in the later political struggles, he quietly supported the direct political power.

If the Great Revolution had not broken out in the middle of the process, he might have been killed by the consortium. After all, the consortium was just formed by capitalists because of interests, and could also be divided due to interests, and its cohesion would be very poor.

After hesitating for a while, Napoleon IV nodded: "Prepare to start! At this point, we can only bet."
