Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1872 giant slayer (sixteen)

Alessandro came to the bottom of the "pyramid".

It wasn't as high as he had imagined, it was only about fifty feet, so it was relatively easy to climb up.

He looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he took a few steps back, took a run-up and jumped up.

At this time, he suddenly realized that the modern man had not received any training in this area, he had learned it in a "dream".

Alejandro didn't think too much, and climbed up the "pyramid" directly according to the skills the "instructor" said.

He stood on the platform and looked down at the surroundings. This inland city marked by ships could neither see the sea nor the ships.

There is a huge man-made rock in Lyon. There is a Temple of Concord on the top of the rock, and there are many flags at the bottom of the rock. It is solemn enough in a blink of an eye, and the founding ceremony of the Alpine Republic can also be held there, but Bonaparte chose a monastery.

Italy before unification has always been at the mercy of others. Whether it is the Spanish throne war or the later Napoleonic Wars, it has nothing to do with Italy. However, it was the Italians who suffered in the end. There used to be brilliant civilizations in Italy, Rome and the Renaissance, but as Gaitano said, they could not get rid of those outsiders.

The countries that built the most roads in the 18th century were France and Spain, and Spain was more in line with the French "royal avenue". After all, the Spanish royal family was also the Bourbon royal family, and a lot of money was invested in the road construction of those royal palaces. Extremely poor, passenger transportation on the road is extremely difficult, and freight can hardly be completed on time.

The situation in Italy was more complicated. At that time, people either went to the American continent, or they went to the north close to France. Without enough residents, there was no point in building roads. Southern Italy was far behind northern Italy, and the roads in the north were flat. , there are only some original dirt roads left in the south, and the way of land travel is basically by walking. Some roads are simply trails built for sheep herders in the Middle Ages.

Sea transportation has become the main mode of transportation in the Mediterranean Sea, and the two Venetian chandeliers were also shipped to France. It looks very luxurious, but in fact the French did not spend much money because it is semi-tribute.

Bonaparte looted many works of art from Venice, but those in power still flattered the French.

In fact, compared with what the Austrians did in Venice later, Bonaparte was still restrained. After all, Venice was still rich at that time. When it was the turn of the Austrians to search, there was not much left, so they had to tear down the house and rebuild the old buildings as they were, making them part of the Crown Prince's private garden.

This is the difference between the feudal autocracy and the democratic model. "Public life" is an important part of the Roman Republic and Greece. Both the square and the house are places for people to discuss matters. There is no place for public life or others are not allowed to go. The Jacobins in Marseille threatened citizens who insisted on participating in the discussion and buried them alive if they dared to come. It is no wonder that the mayor of Avignon moved the parliament to the Go outside the city, and let the bandits who were on guard against the rebels.

When people are in a hurry, they sometimes do irrational things. Sforza once let the French invade Italy. The convenient transportation made it easier for the invaders to quickly occupy. This time Napoleon asked Ney to send troops to Switzerland to use a wooden "railway". It seemed meaningless to restrict the import of horses into France. Only those places with rugged mountain roads still needed people to push horses.

After crossing the Alps twice, Napoleon made up his mind to build a tunnel directly to Milan, which was convenient for business as well as politics and military affairs, which he learned from the British.

Britain is blocked by the strait, but other countries on the land do not. The same thing is in the palace of the Bourbon royal family, but it is used as an amusement facility for nobles.

It is not easy for ordinary people to keep up with his footsteps. The troops led by Napoleon are all forced marches. The weak who cannot keep up will be left behind, and Moreau will take in the wounded and sick. When the battle was over, Bonaparte would visit the sick and wounded again. In Jaffa, he even touched the swellings on the soldiers who had suffered from the Black Death.

Some people think that he is hypocritical and acting on the occasion, and they don't care about the official position and generous salary given by Bonaparte.

Some people think that it is understandable that soldiers are expensive and fast, and they have delayed the speed of the large troops. The French army without horses has achieved an amazing speed with its legs.

The only thing that can compete with France is England, the sea supremacy. After the Battle of Abgir, the strength of the French navy was not as good as before. When Alejandro heard that the British came, these French warships were still docked in the harbor, perhaps to prevent them from drifting with the tide. , they were tied up with ropes, which caused no ship to run, and the Eastern Fleet was gone.

Linda is a woman... Because of the false accusation in the homeless arrest warrant, the wife exposed her husband as a homeless man to the government. If the husband can prove that his property comes from legal sources, then others will not think that he is wearing Beggars in regal clothes. The problem is that there are a lot of people in Brittany who are engaged in smuggling, and Louis XIV issued an amnesty banning trade with the British, and sensible people know which to choose between beheading and asylum.

When a woman's heart is no longer in a man's body, she will bite him like a poisonous snake in a farmer's arms. Priests taught women to be pious and kind, and Marie Antoinette was taught according to this model. Her heart was not as vicious as Georgiana's, and she couldn't think of ways to threaten people's appearance.

A man first looks at a woman's facial features, and then looks at her three views. After marrying a femme fatale, the woman poisons her stepson to death. Arsenic is also known as the poison of the stepmother.

There is also the story of the Bridge of Sighs, a criminal was convicted of a felony, and when he walked across the Bridge of Sighs, he looked down at the window lattice and found a boat. The woman he was thinking about was kissing another man, and he was so excited that he slammed his head against the marble. flower window.

Or else they are old couples and young wives who, like Marino, marry a troublemaker and come back, only to be beheaded for treason.

It is impossible to think that women are the incarnation of original sin in the middle ages witch hunts. Witch hunts are also false accusations, and there are so many reports. Husbands accuse their wives and sons accuse their mothers. The woman defended "I'm not a witch" and met a judge who said, "You don't know what a witch is, how can you prove that you are not a witch".

There are very few people who investigate in detail like Kepler, and...Alejandro thought of Bruno. Bruno was also captured after fleeing to Venice. Neutral countries sometimes betray criminals in order not to offend anyone.

If Mr. Smith fled to Venice with Linda, they might also be betrayed. In the rebellion in 1310, because a woman threw a flower pot from upstairs to prevent the government from raising the rent, the flag bearer who held the flag of the rebels It was smashed to death.

Napoleon's special court arrested many smugglers who resold food during the famine, and these people were condemned by the people.

Bonaparte asked Gabriel Ufral to go to Spain to buy two million hectares of grain. Almost all the transport capacity available in Europe was used, and the French canals were full of grain ships.

In contrast, some people smuggled food for their own self-interest. These people thought they were doing it without anyone noticing, but they were still reported by the public.

It is not surprising to sell the grain on your own land, but why sell it abroad?

The Spaniards have gold and silver, and the British have cotton goods, but these things can't fill their stomachs. The "Bread and Blood" movement is also going on in the UK. British farmers resist foreign grains from entering the UK and lower the price of grains.

Even if Bonaparte did not use the guillotine to solve economic problems like the Jacobins did, these speculators were disgusted by the people and should be severely punished.

Even the Pope of Rome chose to surrender because of the support of the people, and shipped the books and artworks in the library to France. Linda asked the poor scholars in Paris to copy the books and returned the originals to the church, as if she really liked copying Taste.

However, Bonaparte wanted to get the original sculpture of the Madonna.

Maria, who should have been crying bitterly, was smiling, because she was proud and proud of having a brave son who sacrificed for the world.

At the reception held at the Tuileries Palace that day, French women wore white skirts, and British women wore red skirts, as if they symbolized Upper and Lower Egypt, and together they represented unity.

No wonder someone wanted to assassinate her.

Santo Domingo could not be defeated, so Bonaparte "forcibly" promoted the planting of sugar beets in Belgium. The French farmers could not say anything, and the Italians were not reluctant, so the Belgians suffered.

Beets don’t have to be grown in the tropics. This is a last resort that the Germans who have no tropical colonies have come up with. If Belgium becomes a beet planting and processing place, even if Belgium returns to the Germans in the future, they will take advantage of it. Ready-made The industrial chain is completed.

France will not continue to be unlucky, with natural disasters every year, and when the harvest is bumper in the future, French grain can also be sold to Belgium.

The plan is beautiful, just like the "harem mechanism" of Bonaparte, but Grassini can run, so can the Belgians, the Italians can go to the New World, but the Belgians can go to the New World.

Maybe Frank wasn't quite right, but he had a quote Alejandro remembered, that someone was trying to replace religious tradition with the law of 'reason', which destroyed the connections and social virtues that human society had built up over centuries , such as honesty, trust, tolerance, and restraint, put self-interest above moral obligations. He felt that people should not be so selfish. Everyone in the team wanted to show off, and then split into many small groups, and France was similar to Italy during the Great Revolution, and almost split into city-states.

The united French drove away the invaders who planned to carve up France, because the population was concentrated in the north. Napoleon unified the Southern Alps Republic, almost unifying Italy. This was the first time that Italy was unified since the split of Rome, although It is under French control.

Even Gaitano, who insisted that the power to rule Italy should belong to the Italian people, was sometimes dazzled by Bonaparte, as if Bonaparte was a star with a huge gravitational force, making it difficult to stand firm.

Monica didn't want him to go back, don't mess with the Carbonari, and don't indulge in that false world like everyone else.

"I'm sorry, Monica, I want to become stronger." Alejandro whispered, and then he continued to climb the "pyramid".
