Chapter 2311 surgeon & sergeant

  When the groomer Michele de Lando was chosen by the masses as the standard-bearer of justice, his first order was to find an inspector named Ser Nutto, who had been appointed by Rabo.

No one knows why Michele did that, maybe it was because Michele and Nuto had a personal feud, or something else, but Michele's followers began to carry out orders, and a large group of people took Ser Nuto. Get to the courtyard. To make everyone fearful, Michele erected a gallows in the compound, and when Ser Nuto arrived, Michele ordered Nuto to be tied with one foot to the gallows and poured out When he got up, the people around him quickly tore Nuto to pieces, tearing up the whole body in a blink of an eye, except for the foot that was still chained to the shelf.

  The mood of the group is often manic and extreme, and there are only two attitudes, either accept it all or reject it all. When the Parisians stormed into the Palace of Versailles, their anger might lead them to tear the queen to pieces, when the nobles built barricades all over the palace, and it was useless to fight them with "fortifications", On the contrary, Lafayette, who had gone to take a nap for a while, appeared because he was too tired, and the scene immediately returned to calm.

  So violence can't stop people who act with passion, they will blindly obey the orders of someone they don't even know very well, and use cruel means to kill someone they don't know very well; if they only have disgust in their hearts, she will not listen to anything she says.

  If possible, try not to be an annoying woman, this is the survival experience accumulated by women for many years. Josephine had an affair when Bonaparte went to Egypt. Later, when Bonaparte had a new love outside, people were also on his side.

   But there are many parents in this world who want their daughter to enjoy everything she didn't enjoy when she was young and pamper her like a princess.

  When people lose confidence, they need praise and encouragement, but if they are always surrounded by praise and encouragement, they will live in a world of self-deception, and they will cover their ears and refuse to listen to anything that is not pleasing to their ears.

   She has always avoided being such a person. She should listen to other people's opinions and be a patient listener who listens to the truth, but what he said that night was really difficult for her to accept.

They didn't speak all the way. When they came to the meeting room of the palace, everyone was already seated. These people were men and women. When they saw the two, they stood up. Bonaparte naturally took the first seat, while Georgiana There was no seat at the other end of the long table for the "hostess".

   She sat on his right hand side, and the person who was sitting in that position was suddenly at a loss.

   "This is the identity of those 6 people." A man with a beard handed her a document.

  Georgianna took the document, which others had in front of them, but they seemed to have seen it.

The full name of Rembrandt's "Night Watch" is "Amsterdam's Second District Militia under Captain Frans Bannick Koch." To maintain public order and protect citizens' property, their occupations are similar to and different from the police, because their work and administrative departments are not specially defined, and their titles are also very different. Some are called militiamen, some are called military rank, and Captain Cork may be a serving officer or a retired officer, so calling him captain has nothing to do with the police rank.

In the second half of the 18th century, the number of such "night patrols" was significantly reduced, replaced by professional police teams. Brainstorming work, the "police" needs more courage. In 1786, Dublin selected innocent students of King's Medical College to form the police. They usually patrol the streets politely in uniform, but when there is a riot in the prison, they cannot suppress the criminals, and even use the army to bring them down. After being rescued, he used police funds to buy carpets, high-end mirrors and other luxurious items to decorate the headquarters.

   William Pitt, Jr. suggested hiring cavalry to patrol, but was also resisted by Birmingham. The Belgian police are also very "local". Bruges has hired a patrol and protection company, and veterans are responsible for patrolling the city, which is undoubtedly more reliable than the militia. But in Ghent, the community security organization is responsible. There are 200 communities in Ghent, and each community has a church. After the residents of each community go to the church to raise funds, they will pay the guild organization responsible for public security affairs. Community residents hope to have a good public security and working environment. They not only have frequent meetings, but also consciously assume the responsibility of monitoring, especially those who have newly moved into the community. Welcome Tax" tax.

   If Ghent develops into a textile center in the future and mainly needs female workers, all these people need background checks. Stanley introduced an English "Bow Street scout" to the Knights.

The situation in Mechelen is different. Mechelen has been the seat of the Supreme Court since the 16th century. The work of maintaining public order in the city is handed over to councillors or judges. This is also the model of many cities, but the terms of these councillors and judges are different, and some For only one year, frequent personnel changes brought difficulties to public security work.

  The reformers believed that it was very inappropriate to leave the law and order to members and judges. This job should be given to a person who can stay in this position for a long time, so that he can accumulate rich experience and be beneficial to the management of the police force. Magistrates and councillors, on the other hand, considered that having jurisdiction over the local policing was the criterion for whether a locality was self-governing.

Joseph II wanted to establish a centralized police organization, with uniform uniforms, distinct hierarchies, strict discipline, and in addition to abolishing the existing parliament and courts. In 1787, Joseph II had an affair with the magistrate. intense conflict. In 1788 Brabantine returned to medieval armaments and hoisted the black, red and yellow tricolor flag. He decided to stifle the revolution in the cradle and ordered the Volunteer Army Militia to be disbanded. Civilians opened fire, the Brabantine Revolution broke out, and in less than a month all of Belgium, except Luxembourg, was up in arms.

   But Belgium did not form an effective government at the time, and followers of Van der Nut and Funk were at odds.

When Van der Nut and Funk were in exile, the insurgents hid in the forest. The six were originally under twin brothers Frans Bosbeek and Jan Bosbeek. The independent farms of the Labantine countryside and Gelderland were the targets of their violent looting.

  In the midst of troubled times, sometimes there are guerrillas with firm principles hiding in that forest, sometimes they are robbers who are rampant all over the Republic, sometimes both.

   These six people are more or less guilty of robbery, assault, murder, etc. Anyway, they are not pure angels. What surprised her even more was the efficiency of "Bow Street Detective". If he wasn't the reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes, then he might have something to do with these assassins. Of course, it's also possible that he did have his own channels. Anyway, he quickly let people know. Suspect.

   "Have their autopsies been examined?" asked Georgiana.

  The crowd fell silent.

   "Is that necessary?"

   She looked at each other.

   "I mean, they all died from the poison..."

   "Is there a medical school near here?" asked Georgiana.

"Have……"

"I'm talking about the College of Surgeons." Georgiana looked at the materials and said, "Learning surgery requires dissection of cadavers. Do you know how in short supply cadavers are now? Even if their bodies are poisonous, they can be used for human medicine after death. contribute value."

   "You mean..."

   "Dissect, taxidermy, or mummify them, display them, clothe them with a list of crimes they've committed."

"This……"

   "Too cruel?" asked Georgiana.

   No one spoke again.

"Using cruel punishment will not serve as a warning. Some people will enjoy it and celebrate it like a festival. During the Great Revolution, some people cut off people's heads and stabbed them on long spears. Cutting off a person's head in public is the most painful thing. The ritual of attention..."

   "You said that was a ceremony?" The person sitting at the back of the long table interrupted her chatter.

"It's all about making fear the basis of the festival," Georgiana said in a low voice. "It makes a clear distinction between political groups, think about that picture, if someone is using a spear to pick a person's head, and You met head-on on the street, and he asked you to shout 'Long live the nation', would you shout?"

   The other party did not answer.

  Georgianna didn't want his answer very much either, because Bonaparte shouted at the time, so he survived, and now sitting at this table, he has become the first ruler of France.

   "What's your name?" asked Georgiana.

   "Jean-Baptiste van Beethoven."

   "Beethoven? The musician Beethoven?" she asked in surprise.

   "Yes," replied Baptiste.

   "Are you relatives?"

   "No," Baptiste replied solemnly.

   She didn't react for a while.

"His great-grandfather, Michael van Beethoven, was a baker and also ran a clothing store. He was doing well because he was in debt due to speculation. He fled to Bonn to avoid creditors. His grandfather Ludwig once It's from the cathedral choir." An old lady said, "I still have an IOU from his family, do you?"

   "What do I want that thing for?" asked Georgiana.

   "I heard that little Ludwig is very famous now and will make great achievements in the future," said the old lady.

   "Socialize later." Bonaparte interrupted their "chat" impatiently.

  The old lady pouted, and Georgiana didn't want to continue the topic.

   It's really worth collecting, why doesn't the old lady keep it for herself?

  The local residents of Mechelen have a strong sense of the rule of law, and with the addition of religious order, the overall security is very good, and they can almost keep their houses closed at night.

  Some physical fortifications are still necessary, especially when there are so many workers from all over the city.

   As for whether to follow the path and expand the scale of arrest, it depends on what Bonaparte thinks, and she personally does not support it.

   She doesn't know how the "compassionate justice" of others is achieved. This is the limit of what she can do.

  Wait tomorrow morning, she will go to the Archbishop to see if he can explain the dream for her, because thanks to it, she can find some enlightenment in the mess.
