The parliament building stood there quietly, from the outside, no one could even be seen.

　　 "Hahaha..." A royal party member laughed loudly, "I knew that these rebels had already run away! These cowards! Hahaha..."

Holding a huge white flag in his hand (no way, the flag of the Bourbon dynasty is of this color.), he turned his head and shouted to the people behind: "Brothers, follow Lao Tzu! Put the white flag on the parliament building. Go on top!"

　　 The crowd rushed to the Capitol in a rush. Many people shot randomly at the walls of the Capitol. The bullets splashed small sparks on the walls, and the window glass was smashed to pieces.

　　 The crowd is getting closer and closer to the building, less than forty meters away. But at this moment, suddenly explosions sounded from all directions.

　　 Countless fireballs emerged from the ground floor of the square in front of the Capitol, and the road leading to the Capitol, and then countless fireballs exploded in the air.

　　 "This is..." Baras, who had been hiding behind a window on the second floor of the building, asked in a trembling voice, looking out with a periscope. Although it was winter, there was already sweat on his forehead.

　　Barras knew that if he hid elsewhere at this time, it would definitely be much safer. But when the time comes to share the credit, there will naturally be much less. Therefore, after thinking about it all night, he decided to close his eyes and take a gamble. After all, Fouché and Lucien were both here. If they are not sure, they should not...

But just now, when the mobs swarmed in, Ballas was really a little frightened. He remembered the various weird and imaginative things of the nobles when they were massacred in September. The way to die is that the legs are really soft, and I almost forgot that a small bottle of poison was prepared by his side.

　　 But this series of big explosions changed everything. After the explosion, the entire square outside the Capitol and several nearby streets were swept by shock waves and shrapnel. Most of the turbulent crowd just now turned into corpses, and the remaining guys fell to the ground and groaned. , No one can stand there anymore in the empty squares and streets.

　　 "This is an electric explosive mine." Lucien replied, "This is the latest product of our company."

　　In the original history, in 1799, Volt produced the first practical battery-Volt Pile. It was also in this year that EC Howard produced the important explosive mercury fulminate. But in this time and space, when Lavoisier made nitrified starch in the "Military Technology Research Institute" a few years ago, he also made mercury fulminate. Recently, in order to develop various explosives, especially timed explosives, Joseph has copied batteries. Moreover, his starting point is much higher than Volt. The easy-to-use carbon-zinc battery and the rechargeable zinc-copper battery using dilute sulfuric acid as the electrolyte are straightforward.

　　 Plus the electric detonator made by Lavoisier, and if you add a timer, a time bomb that the people of future generations will love to see, the necessary time bomb for home travel, murder and arson will come out. In the future, giving this thing to those European revolutionaries, especially those in Dabobo and Russia who love to assassinate, will probably blow up half of the European aristocracy.

　　Of course, the use of these technologies is by no means limited to assassinations. They are very important in many fields. For example, here, just a slight modification of the technology that is going to be used for mine safety blasting (the fuse is unreliable and relatively dangerous), and this big killer is produced.

The so-called "electrically detonated mines" are more conscientious. They are a pack of nitrated starch wrapped in oiled paper and tarpaulin, with some broken glass and iron nails on the outside, and then plug in an electric detonator and wire; If you have no conscience, first nail a long nail on the ground, then put the explosive wrapped in the glass **** iron nail on it, plug in the electric detonator, connect the wire, and put an authentic Bonaparte melon on it. ", pull the cable out and fix it on the iron nail below. In this way, once detonated, the little melon on it will explode to the sky, and at the same time its firing tube will be pulled out. As long as the amount of explosives placed is right, the Melon can explode in the air, so that the target has nowhere to escape.

　　 In one night, the Red Army planted more than 300 mines of this kind in the square and the main road leading to the Parliament building, turning this entire area into a huge death trap.

　　 "Fight back! Take the opportunity to defeat them!" shouted Colonel Bertier, the current commander-in-chief of the Red Army and the successor Kano had worked hard to cultivate.

As a result, hundreds of soldiers in red uniforms suddenly emerged from behind the window and behind the door, holding a bayonet-mounted rifle, rushed out of the door, jumped out of the window, and faced those in the distance who were just exploded. Frightened, the rioters who hadn't understood it rushed over.

　　 Those rioters were scared to death by the explosion just now. The reason why they didn't immediately disperse, went back to each house and looked for each mother, not because they had any courage, but because they were frightened stupid. Now, seeing a group of soldiers rushing towards them with sharp bayonet, they all wake up one by one, turning around and running, yelling: "We are defeated, run away, run away... ...Damn it, don't stand in me!"

　　 The crowd was in a mess. Of course, they couldn't run fast, so the Red Army quickly chased up, first with a volley, then another round of melons, and then... well, then there was no more.

　　 The rioters didn't even think about fighting back or anything, they just flee. The smarter people throw away their weapons, leave the street, and fled into the alleys. Anyway, the Red Army will not chase here, they only chase the most crowded places.

"Mr. Ballas, now you can, in the name of the city defense commander, give orders to the National Self-Defense Army in various districts to counter the rebellion. I'm sure they will obey the orders honestly now." Lucien looked out. , Then turned his head and said to Ballas.

　　 In fact, there is no need for Ballas to give instructions. After receiving news of the defeat of the Royal Party's siege of the National Assembly, the National Self-Defense Forces of the districts that originally maintained "goodwill neutrality" naturally, needless to say, they have actively joined the queue to beat down the dog. Even if they were inclined to the royal party, they even came out as a whole team to besiege the National Assembly, but they came out a little later, and immediately said: We came out to suppress the rebellion and defend the Republic!

As the saying goes, "Thousands of people beat the wall and everyone pushes the wall." On the one hand, the insurgents all fled, throwing their helmets and armor, and on the other hand, the National Self-Defense Forces all stood up to quell the rebellion. The rebellion that changed Paris was suppressed after only half a day.

　　 But to be honest, the loss of the royal party is actually very limited. After all, among the people who rushed to the forefront, there were not many people with noble blood. Moreover, before launching the rebellion, although these people said one by one that they would succeed this time, these nobles who had survived the Robespierre era had already habitually prepared themselves to flee after failure. The escape route.

In addition, Ballas and his new friends are temporarily unable to take care of those nobles, so most of the nobles involved in the riots, as long as he is not brave (stupid) brave (dead) and fearless (bubble). At the forefront, basically all escaped successfully. Of course, some people think that this is just that some people still need the existence of the royal party in order to put pressure on others.

　　 The rebellion has been put down, and the most important thing is naturally the reward. The Thermidians gathered in the National Assembly to consider the issues of the new government and Congress.

　　 First of all, in this incident, those who made great contributions must be rewarded, otherwise it would not be justified, and... and the Red Army would not agree.

　　 In the past, no matter how noisy Paris was, the army never really got involved in these political struggles in Paris. But this time, the army suddenly appeared on the field, and with such a powerful blow, it proved to everyone: "You must not misunderstand what we mean. We are not targeting anyone here. We mean, if we compare Lift the table, you are all rubbish!"

　　 The Red Army, with only five hundred men, easily defeated 40,000 mobs, and the casualties they paid were pitiful. The only soldier who was honorably wounded in the battle was smashed while chasing the mob. As for how many thugs died, God knows. It is said that the carriages dragging the corpses have been busy all day.

　　Since the army has begun to intervene in politics, it is impossible to go back to the past without doing anything. Even if the army is willing to do this, it is impossible. Now, in everything in France, one can no longer ignore the attitude and interests of the military.

"In the past period of time, our military industry management was in chaos and sent too much rags to the army! I tell you, the soldiers are very dissatisfied! They are wondering if there is a conspiracy by royalists. They are wondering if any of us is betraying them for money, UU reading www.uukānshu.com betraying France! They all feel that this situation must not be allowed to continue!" At the government meeting, Ballas changed his mind. Suddenly became a spokesperson for the interests of the army.

"Therefore, we must pass a resolution to restore the military representative system, and restore the quality inspection and quality responsibility system for military procurement. How to try to put those rags into our army is a betrayal of the great France and should be subject to The most severe punishment!

　　 The procurement of the army should be carried out publicly, except for some confidential matters. The military publicly proposes technical standards, and only qualified products from companies that meet the technical standards can enter our military..."

　　 "It's really fast for Ballas to fall to the army." Just as Ballas was giving a speech enthusiastically, from the podium, one congressman whispered to another congressman.

"Isn't it, Mr. Rene." The congressman also responded in a low voice. "But I am more concerned about the standards set by the military. I think it is likely that some scientists have developed something first, and then let the military follow him. Products to customize a standard."

"Well, this guy Ballas is really a discerning guy." Mr. Rene whispered, "He was the one who sold the reserve price of the Institute of Navy and Technology to the family at the beginning. And I heard Mr. Ballas just sold two gunpowder factories under his name to them. It is said that he has also become a shareholder of some'military-industrial complex'."

　　 "This is really enviable... He is so rich, he didn't tell us beforehand..."
