Chapter 1588 Life and Death Sniper Nineteen

 Chapter 1589 Life and Death Sniper (Twenty)

There are many forms of military parades. One is that the soldiers stand still in line and the reviewers walk in front of the line.

The other is a reviewer standing on the stage, and the soldiers walk in front of the review stage in a queue. The other is a "performance" that is called an exercise by later generations, and the exercise is divided into live-fire and non-live-fire exercises. Live-fire exercises

Not only would troops be used, but weapons would also be used, not to mention consuming property. It would also put a lot of pressure on England across the strait.

Napoleon went to Rouen this time to mobilize his western troops for a military parade. It was like a large army pressing into the border. Rouen was an important port. However, according to what he said, he only planned to have a horse riding parade in the highlands near Rouen. In addition, he would also

Let the Archbishop of Rouen say mass for the soldiers participating in the military parade, and also give a sermon at the same time.

Although Catholicism has lost its status as a state religion in France, it is still the religion of most people. Halloween is also called All Saints' Day. This festival has been commercialized in the 21st century, but some people still stick to the tradition. When children dress up in weird and weird

When going to the streets to ask for sweets, the adults should have gone to the church for mass. Unless there are irresistible reasons, all believers must be present, but soldiers cannot leave the military camp at will.

Georgiana felt that if she had to explain this to the politicians in London, they would definitely not agree with it. For a festival where children were wrapped in sheets and playing ghosts in the streets, adults should stay at home and give them candies instead of going to the mountains for military parades. Napoleon Enter

He had done this before in Dijon, where he had a group of beggars dress up as soldiers for a review, and the regular soldiers were hiding in the middle of the road waiting to join him and cross the Alps. Who knows if he is planning to engage in conspiracy again this time.

Napoleon was in his thirties. Although he was still a child in the eyes of the elder politicians, if he played "trick or treat" and made bad jokes at this age, he would not be forgiven as easily as a child.

In Georgiana's common sense, the telegraph appeared very late, but on the way to Brittany, she saw many telegraph stations, which were connected by thick wires and supported by

Telephone poles look almost the same as they would in a French country town in the 21st century.

Western France was the focus of Napoleon's governance. During the day, when their carriages passed through those western towns, they would sometimes pass by churches. The clergy would sing hymns and burn incense at the door of the churches. When the residents knew that Napoleon's motorcade was coming, they would all come from home.

Looking out, Georgiana found that scene difficult to describe in words.

When he was riding an Arabian horse, riding along the road built in the Middle Ages, surrounded by knights and spices, he seemed completely different from the man who ate spaghetti bolognese in the kitchen the night before and then lay down after he was full.

A man of the world.

Georgiana's carriage followed the cavalry in a low-key manner, forming a convoy with the carriages of other accompanying officials. The wheels rolled over the stone streets, making a gurgling sound. When they reached the wilderness, she began to worry about the carriage again.

Will you get stuck in a mud pit? During wartime, destroying roads and blocking traffic is a common method. There are not many paved roads in Brittany, and they also specially selected some small roads instead of main thoroughfares.

This is a defensive method to avoid being ambushed by someone who predicts the route. This was the case on Christmas Day in 1800. Instead of using a large force for protection, light cavalry can be used to reduce the burden and advance quickly.

The construction of railways is not suitable for all terrains. The Paris Basin looks flat, but there are many rolling hills. She felt it when she went to Saint-Germain-en-Laye yesterday. If a railway is built along those hills, the train will be like a roller coaster.

The same ups and downs.

But building bridges for comfort is not applicable. Louis XVI's fiscal revenue cannot support as many troops as after the French Revolution. The military expenditure of 400 million is a heavy burden. However, Napoleon did not dare to disarm at will. Today's veterans are retired

Serious social problems were left behind, and many beggars and robbers were made up of them.

Georgiana was not worried about the expensive jewelry she was carrying. Before her execution, Madame Du Barry planned to use the jewelry she had hidden to redeem her life. Starting from the Middle Ages, prisoners of war could be released by paying a ransom, but the court at that time simply did not accept her.

conditions of.

If she met someone who robbed her money, she would definitely ask Alice to give him all the jewelry she was guarding if the problem could be resolved with money. A person cannot remain highly nervous and alert for a long time. Georgiana couldn't do it anyway.

When they arrived, she and Figel discussed taking turns to be on guard, with Figel standing guard at night. During the day, Figel lay on the carriage and slept, and it was Georgiana's turn to focus on the surrounding situation.

If the moonlight was as bright as last night, then snipers would be out at night, as well as werewolves.

While resting on the road, Georgiana picked some wolfsbane aconite and used some silver jewelry to make arrowheads for use against werewolves. She sent them to the Mamluk leader Shadi, who would decide on these arrowheads.

Who holds it.

Originally, she planned to make silver bullets to deal with werewolves, but later she felt that the more important job of these guards and guides was to defend against the living.

"Ouch~"

She heard a wolf howl in the wilderness. She looked in that direction and found a black dog flashing past behind a slope.

This reminded Georgiana of "grim", although she did not see this shape from the tea stains on the tea cup.

After finishing lunch, Severus, Gongsei, and Crimean went to the street where the accident happened in the prophecy ball. At present, everything in this neighborhood seemed calm, and there was no sign of any riot.

"What are we doing here?" Severus asked Crimean.

"Looking for clues." Krimian said, "I went to all the scenes that appeared in the prophecy ball. I waited for her in Westminster Street for a long time."

"What can you find?" Gong Saiyi looked up at the building.

"Usually nothing is found," Crimean said.

Severus looked at the street tree on the side of the road, which was now lush and full of green leaves.

"I remember there were dead leaves on the ground," Severus said. "The leaves on the trees were also yellow."

"Autumn." Gong Saiyi exclaimed, "Is it this year's autumn or next year's?"

"How do I know?" Severus said frivolously.

"Let's prepare for the worst, which is this autumn." Crimean said reluctantly, "We still have three months."

"I don't think the trouble you are encountering can be solved in three months." Severus said, "The city and the suburbs of Paris are not the same world at all, let alone the more remote countryside. The manor we live in doesn't even have asphalt.

The road is only gravel."

"So what?" Crimean asked.

"How should I know?" Severus said with a smile.

"Should we warn this family?" Gong Saiyi said, looking at the house with iron railings.

"Others will think you are crazy or have ulterior motives," Severus said.

"Jack-o'-lantern," said Felix. "Where did the jack-o'-lantern go?"

"What pumpkin lantern?" Gong Saiyi asked.

"I saw it in the crystal ball." Felix said firmly.

"Okay, pumpkin lantern, so what?" Gong Saiyi said impatiently.

"Trick or treat." Severus said after taking a puff of cigarette, "Halloween will be very lively this year."

On Halloween in Paris, there are young people wearing fancy clothes and dancing in bars, and there are also people who guard a small shop and give homeless people a bowl of vegetable soup. Carnival and virtue collide on this night in this city, which is obviously a

People at the intersection live in different worlds

Maybe this is the feeling of meeting someone but not feeling like they have ever met before. Maybe they are destined to meet each other thousands of miles away, but they are not destined to meet each other in the opposite direction.

Mountains never meet, but people always meet
