Chapter 129: Smash the treasonous group

Ludru Roland, who is good at labeling others, never thought that one day he would be labeled as "subverting the government of the French Republic".

"No! I don't agree! This is a false accusation, and this is the tyranny of the majority!" Ludru Roland, who was sitting on the Montagnard seat, stood up and pointed hysterically at Thiers, who was being carried up.

Then, Ludru Roland seemed to be talking to himself, he raised his head and murmured: "I...I know! You must have been beaten into submission, Leon Fushi is your lackey!"

Looking at Ludru Roland's dazed look, Thiers on the stage despised the guy in front of him even more.

If the Montagnards (Jacobins) under the leadership of Robespierre are the embodiment of fear, then the Montagnards under the leadership of Ludru Rolland are like a humble clown in the name of Robespierre.

Thiers' eyes revealed disdain, and he said calmly: "Member Ledru Roland! Since you think the National Assembly is a tyranny of the majority!"

Immediately, he put one hand on the rostrum and said aggressively: "So in your eyes, what is not tyranny? Are you and your party the only one in the entire National Assembly who is correct? Wake up! Tyrant

The time has passed! The fear of the Public Security Committee has disappeared!"

"I..." Thiers's barrage of words made Ludru Roland unable to say anything to refute for a moment. He already regretted his impulsive words just now.

Denying the legitimacy of the National Assembly means denying themselves.

Many members of the Republican Party (Lamartine) and the Party of Order (Victor Hugo) who originally had some favorable impressions of the Montagnard Party were very dissatisfied with Ledru Rolland's speech just now.

Even the internal members of the Montagnard Party felt embarrassed and displeased with the arrogance just made by their "party leader".

"I...I did not deny the National Assembly! I was just...saying..." Ludru Roland, who was not good at eloquence, seemed speechless.

Seeing that Ludru Roland was hesitating and unable to answer, Thiers seized the opportunity again and said: "Mr. Roland! Since you do not deny the legitimacy of the National Assembly, then please implement the proposal just made by the National Assembly!"

Thiers turned to Marast on the rostrum and said: "Citizen Speaker, I request that the membership of Ludru Roland and the Montagnard Party be suspended and that they be examined immediately!"

In the constitution of the French Republic, parliamentarians have the power to review immunity.

If you want to bring a judicial trial to the members, then suspending the status of the members is an essential step.

Of course, it would not be a bad idea to send out the army.

"This..." Marast hesitated a little. He was good at conciliation and did not want to see the entire National Assembly turn into a life-or-death battlefield: "Can we wait until the evidence is solid before making a decision?"

"Citizen Speaker, the evidence is very conclusive! Ludru Roland is an element lurking in France trying to subvert the Republic! I request his immediate arrest!" Thiers did not give Speaker Marast any face, and he spoke forcefully to Ma

Speaker Rust ordered.

Marast was unwilling to agree to Thiers' proposal on the spot, and he was also unwilling to offend the Party of Order. He could only laugh and said: "I think it is better to wait until all the MPs have arrived before making a decision on this proposal! There are still 40

Didn’t the famous congressman arrive?”

Of course Thiers knew that Marast was stalling for time, and he didn't think he could force Ludru Roland to surrender at the parliamentary level. All he did was to make Ludru Roland jump over the wall and run away.

Outside the National Assembly, he would have the opportunity to kill the Montagnards.

Thiers did not speak. He bowed slightly to Marast, then looked at Ledrue Roland with contempt and then left the stage.

"Humph! Let's go!" Just as Thiers said, Ludru and Roland ignored the "decency" of the National Assembly and called on the Montagnards to leave. He was unwilling to return to this assembly that made him feel suffocated.

In Ludru Roland's opinion, the National Assembly was no longer "protected" by the Constitution, and those members had completely turned into royalists. He wanted to fight against them outside the Assembly and on the barricades.

Ludru Roland's behavior of leaving the National Assembly without permission before the National Assembly was announced to have adjourned made Marrast, as the Speaker, even more disgusted with him. He tried his best to help Ludru Roland smooth things over, and actually won the

received this kind of treatment.

Just when Ludru Roland and a few Mountain Party members were about to leave from the left channel, a voice sounded from behind Ludru Roland: "Member Roland, the National Assembly is not a vegetable market. You can come or leave if you want.

Just leave!”

For a moment everyone looked at the owner of the voice.

Ludru Roland turned to the owner of the voice and said: "Mr. President, the Constitution does not stipulate that members cannot leave the venue at will!"

"The Constitution stipulates that the National Assembly is the organ that enjoys the highest power in France. As a member of the parliament, what do you mean by despising the National Assembly? Do you still have a republic in your eyes, and do you still have 30 million French compatriots!" Jerome Bo

Nabar pretended to respect the National Assembly and criticized Ludru Roland: "Or, Senator Roland, you have voluntarily given up your identity as a member!"

"I would rather not be a member of this bastard parliament!" Ludru Roland, who was dizzy with anger, did not realize the trap Jérôme Bonaparte had prepared for him. "The parliament in my heart is in the streets of Paris,

Not here!"

"Since you, Senator Roland, are no longer willing to be part of the National Assembly, then please do it!" Jérôme Bonaparte put on an attitude of "I will do as I please".

"Mr. President, you and your cabinet will definitely be overthrown by the angry people of Paris!" Ledru Roland sneered at the National Assembly.

After Ludru Rolland left, Jérôme Bonaparte looked at everyone in the National Assembly with a smile and said with a hint of joking: "The National Assembly really put on a wonderful show!"

"Cough...cough..." Marast on the rostrum cleared his throat, banged the gavel and said: "Citizen President, don't you know why you came to the Bourbon Palace?"

Jérôme Bonaparte still had a joking expression on his face and said: "As a member of France! Can't I come to the Parliament to observe? Mr. Speaker, you heard just now that Senator Ludru Roland has already

He voluntarily gave up his identity as a member of parliament, so we can start the review from him!"

"right!"

"That's right!"

Many in the Party of Order camp agreed, and Parliament seemed to be falling into disorder again.

"Quiet!" Marast banged the gavel again, and after the parliament became quiet again, he said: "Citizen President, this is not something you have to consider! Whether Ludru Roland really gives up as a member of the parliament depends on

The National Assembly decides!”

Jérôme Bonaparte once again showed his dignity and left the Bourbon Palace.

After the "disruption" of Ludru Rolland and Jérôme Bonaparte, the sacred National Assembly disappeared.

Fortunately, not many reporters entered the National Assembly, and what happened inside the National Assembly was not spread out.

Under Maraster's gavel, the National Assembly adjourned like a farce.

In the early morning of June 13, an article titled "Declaration to the People" was published by "Reform", "Peace and Democracy" and Proudhon's "People's Daily".

The article unreservedly recorded what happened in the National Assembly that day, and the sanctity of the National Assembly was also lost at this moment.

Immediately afterwards, a large-scale demonstration marched along the boulevard. Nearly 30,000 unarmed National Guardsmen and workers' groups chanted "Long Live the Constitution" under the call of Ludru Roland and a section of the Mountain Party.

to force the National Assembly to reform.

As soon as the parade started moving, it reached the Elysée Palace.

Jérôme Bonaparte, Thiers, Odilon Barrot, Changarnier, and Liulière gathered in the study of the Elysée Palace.

"Okay! They all jumped out!" Odilon Barrow said excitedly.

Thiers and Jérôme Bonaparte both smiled, and the strategy of luring the snake out of its hole seemed to have worked.

The next step is Jérôme Bonaparte's performance.

Jerome Bonaparte issued an order to Liuelli: "Minister Liuelli, as president, I order you to immediately sign the order for the mobilization of the Paris army. We will never tolerate those who attempt to subvert the republic!"

"

"Yes! President!" Liuelli responded immediately.

"General Changarnier, you and your troops can move out!" Jérôme Bonaparte issued another order to Changarnier.

"Yes!" Changarnier stood up, saluted Jérôme Bonaparte and then rode away.

Half an hour later, General Changarnier, who arrived at the military camp on the outskirts, quickly issued an order to enter Paris.

10,000 French regular troops quickly entered Paris.

The protest marchers walking along the Rue de la Paix and the Boulevard des Beaux-Arts were dumbfounded when they saw Changarnier's dragoons and riflemen. There was no plot in their script for regular troops to be dispatched.

"Disperse them!" Changarnier, who was riding on horseback, pointed at the procession with his saddle bridle.

The regular army troops cut up the marching troops like tigers entering a flock of sheep.

"Quickly use weapons to fight back!" Ludru Roland called on the marchers to use weapons to fight back, but they didn't have any weapons.

After that, Ledru Roland, protected by a small group of Paris artillery, arrived at the Paris Eighth and Ninth Legions of the National Guard, hoping to get their help.

The 8th and 9th Army Corps, which were unwilling to conflict with the regular army, rejected him.

At the same time, an order was issued from the Elysee Palace to arrest Ludru Roland and his associates for attempting to subvert the republic.

At this time, Ludru Roland and the Montagnards completely became fish on the chopping board.
