Fox of France

Chapter 170 , Security Strengthening (1)

When it comes to the level of organizing terrorist attacks, the British are still completely younger brothers at this time, and the level of the Royal Party, which cooperates with the British, is also very limited. Those guys from the royal party can also do things like spreading rumors, and they can't even do a good job of inquiring information. As for terrorist attacks?

If you want to ask who the royal party hates the most and wants to kill the most, then Robespierre's group must be at the forefront, and to be honest, as far as Robespierre's A style of running around where no one is taken, the royal party is a little more capable, and it is not particularly difficult to assassinate Robespierre. As for Ebel, it is even easier, that guy has been living in the most chaotic slums.

In fact, none of Jacobin's bosses was able to prevent assassination properly. The royal party doesn't even need a high IQ or ability, as long as they have the courage not to be afraid of going to the guillotine, they can kill any big boss they want to kill. Whether Robespierre or Saint-Just or Danton and Hébert. Just like Corday, the sympathizer of the Brisso faction, although he has not received any training, he can easily kill Marat.

That is to say, the gang of Wang Dang didn't have the martial arts to "die with them" at all, they were all a bunch of useless waste.

So, that group of Britons was rounded up by the National Army Law Enforcement Intervention Team.

However, compared to the waste of the royal party, the British have much more martial arts. After they discovered that they were surrounded, they immediately launched a breakout operation. If their opponents were just ordinary policemen, or those parallel importers of the National Guard, these guys might really break out of the encirclement.

But this time they were facing the National Army Law Enforcement Intervention Team. In fact, this so-called National Army Law Enforcement Intervention Team is a group of people in the "Red Army" who are responsible for street fighting training. According to the tactics they had studied long ago, they quickly deployed anti-personnel landmines on the streets. Three-pound guns were prepared in the direction where the enemy was expected to break out.

As a result, the British really stepped into a trap when they broke through. As a result, they first stepped on landmines, then were shelled, and then they were shot by volleys of guns and bombed by small melons, and they suddenly became a mess. In the end, the national army's law enforcement intervention team wiped out this group of "thugs" with only single-digit casualties.

Since the British are doing things in France under the banner of the royal party, the French will naturally respond. So the Irish once again launched an offensive in Ireland. Before the newly recruited British army had time to prepare, a large number of troops were sent overseas. When Ireland was weak, they began to launch a large-scale offensive.

In the original history, affected by the French Revolution, the United Irish Federation launched an uprising in Ireland. However, due to the lack of experience in fighting, the confidentiality work was not done properly. Before the uprising, the news leaked, leading to the arrest of the main leaders Ton, Tandy, Russell and others. Under these circumstances, the remnants of the United Irishman Union hastily launched an uprising,

But the United Kingdom is not my Qing Dynasty after all, so such a hastily launched uprising naturally cannot shake their rule in Ireland. The uprising was easily and quickly suppressed by the British. In order to deter Ireland's rebellion, the British massacred in Ireland and massacred at least 70,000 Irish people.

But today's United Irish Federation is completely different from the original history. Several of their leaders have received various secret work training in the Toulon training camp, and the organization of the entire organization has also been greatly improved. Although it is completely incomparable with the Leninist parties of later generations, after the Toulon rectification, the United Irish Federation is no longer the club-like organization in history. Although it can't be compared with the vanguard, it can at least be compared with some criminal organizations in later generations.

It was during their studies in Toulon that they met Mr. Joseph Bonaparte, the spiritual mentor of the Irish Revolution. Later, after the Irish fought bloody battles and finally ushered in independence, in the first edition of currency issued by the independent Irish government, Joseph's head was used on the 1 Irish pound gold coin.

And Joseph, the greatest contribution to the independence of the Irish in Toulon was not that he provided the Irish with weapons and training, but that he helped them analyze the current situation in Ireland and pointed out that the Irish needed to follow the rules to fight for independence. The correct line of struggle:

"Most Irish people are farmers, and most of the Irish population is in the countryside. This is different from England. In England, cities are the core of the entire country's economic operation, and the main strength of England comes from cities. But in Ireland , the city is just an appendage of the country. In England, without cities, the whole economic life would be messed up. But in Ireland, for most people, without cities, how to live, or how to live. In Ireland, cities are not Producers, but entirely consumers. Even in a sense, in war, the cities of England are a source of strength, while the cities of Ireland are basically a burden.

Therefore, the revolution in Ireland must be a revolution in the countryside. Whoever controls the Irish countryside controls Ireland. Therefore, don't be in a hurry to attack the city, don't be in a hurry to carry the burden of the city. What's in the cities of Ireland? It can neither produce cannons nor small melons. The colonists would not have given it such capabilities.

That being the case, let them be in British hands first. We first control all the countryside outside the city, and let those British who stay in the city fall into the siege of the vast Irish countryside. They won't get anything in the cities, they will have to go into the countryside, into the territory that is beneficial to us, and get caught up in the vast ocean of the people's war. Personally, I think this is the correct route for Ireland to gain independence. "

These views of Joseph were accepted by the Irish. And at the first All-Ireland Congress of the United Irish Federation held in Toulon, it was identified as the "General Revolutionary Line", that is: "The countryside surrounds the cities and seizes independence by arms."

So even at the stage when the British were empty in Ireland, they did not blindly target the city. At the beginning, they first took advantage of the arrogance and eagerness of the British to retaliate, lured them to the countryside, lured them to the predetermined battlefield, and then concentrated their superior forces to kill, injure, or even annihilate them.

After the British suffered a lot and no longer dared to leave their strongholds easily, the Federation began to quickly fill the vacancy. They killed those "love rapes" who were determined to follow the British, or forced them to run into the UK people's stronghold, so that the British lost control of the entire Irish countryside.

Speaking of the brutal British rule in Ireland, in a sense, it was actually very helpful to the Irish Revolution. Over the years, the British have continued to plunder the Irish and deprive them of their land by various means. This puts most of Ireland in the hands of the English. In other words, in Ireland, most of the landlords and old fortunes are Englishmen, even if they are not Englishmen, they are also English lackeys.

This made the Agrarian Revolution extraordinarily simple, because ethnic contradictions and class contradictions were very consistent here, and it was very easy to unify the ideas in the revolutionary ranks. And once the ruling power of the British retracted to the city's strongholds, it was very easy to carry out land reform in the countryside. So Ireland was suddenly very busy dividing up the land. And taking advantage of this opportunity, the federation quickly began to establish its own organization in each village.

The British were not ignorant of these acts of "Irish rebellion". After all, such a large-scale move cannot be completely kept secret. But the British didn't take this matter very seriously. On the contrary, they either thought that the Irish rebels didn't have much strength because the largest city they took was a small town; The "bumpkins" didn't know how to take the opportunity to seize the city, and they were eager to divide up the spoils before winning the war-this is a group of brainless beetles.

"As soon as our army arrives, they will be wiped out immediately." Although they are actually besieged in strongholds in various towns, large and small, the morale of the British is actually pretty good. Of course, the prerequisite is not to let them go to the countryside to sweep up.

The efficiency of the British is not low. After the special appropriation was passed by the Congress, the British quickly created an army of more than 40,000 people, and then sent them to Ireland after a month of training. The Duke of Norfolk has become the new Governor of Ireland. He will take this army to Ireland to restore order here.

British troops landed in Dublin, and the Duke of Norfolk entered the newly restored Government House. He first inspected the defense system of the Governor's Palace to ensure that the previous attack would not be repeated.

After the inspection, the Duke of Norfolk was very dissatisfied with the current defense of the Governor's Mansion, and he immediately issued new instructions: First, the square in front of the Governor's Mansion is set as a military restricted area. Do not enter this square. Second, some houses near the Governor's Palace are too close to the Governor's Palace, which is a serious safety hazard. So they should be demolished. In short, there should be no other buildings within 300 feet of the Governor's Palace. In the end, the number of troops stationed in the Governor's Palace will increase to ensure safety.

After solving the security problem of the Governor's Palace, the Duke of Norfolk ordered the crusade against the Irish rebels to begin.
