Chapter 2309 forest beggar

 Chapter 2311 surgeon&sergeant

When the carding craftsman Michele de Lando was elected by the masses as the standard bearer of justice, the first order he issued was to find an inspector named Ser Nuto, who was originally appointed by Labo.

No one knows why Michele did that. It might be because Michele and Nuto had a personal grudge, or for other reasons. In short, Michele's followers began to carry out the order, and a large group of people moved Ser Nuto

Come to the compound. In order to make everyone afraid, Michele set up a gallows in the compound. When Ser Nuto arrived, Michele ordered Nuto to have one of his feet

He was tied to the gallows and fell down. The people around him quickly tore Nuto into pieces. In a blink of an eye, the whole body was torn apart, leaving only the foot that was still tied to the frame.

The mood of the group is often manic and extreme. There are only two attitudes, either full acceptance or full rejection. When the Parisian people stormed into the Palace of Versailles, their anger might lead them to tear the queen into pieces. This

At that time, the nobles built barricades all over the palace. It was useless to fight them with "fortifications". On the contrary, Lafayette, who had gone to take a nap because he was too tired, appeared, and the scene immediately returned to calm.

So violence cannot stop people who act with passion. They will blindly obey the orders of a person they don't even know and use cruel means to kill a person they don't know very well. If they only have disgust in their hearts, they won't listen to anything she says.

If possible, try not to be an annoying woman. This is the survival experience that women have accumulated for many years. Josephine was rumored to have an affair when Bonaparte went to Egypt. Later, Bonaparte had a new love outside, and so did people.

On his side.

But there are many parents in this world who hope that their daughter can enjoy everything she did not enjoy when she was young and pamper her like a princess.

People need praise and encouragement when they lose confidence, but if they are always surrounded by praise and encouragement, they will live in a world of self-deception, covering their ears and not listening to anything that doesn't suit their ears.

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

They were silent all the way. When they arrived at the conference room of the palace, everyone had already sat down. There were men and women. They stood up when they saw the two of them. Bonaparte naturally sat at the head of the table, but Georgiana did not.

There was no place for the "hostess" to sit at the other end of the long table.

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

"This is the identity of those six people." A man with a big beard handed her a piece of information.

Georgiana took the document, which was also in front of others, but it seemed that they had already seen it.

The full name of Rembrandt's "Night Watch" is "The Militia of the Second District of Amsterdam under Captain Frans Benny Kock". This militia is mainly composed of textile merchants, and their main duty is to assist municipal officials.

They maintain law and order and protect citizens' property. Their profession is similar to that of the police, but different from the police, because their work is not specifically defined with the administrative department, and their titles vary widely. Some are called militia, and some are called military ranks. Captain Coker may be in

A serving officer may also be a retired officer, so calling him captain has nothing to do with the police rank.

By the second half of the 18th century, the number of such "night patrols" had significantly decreased and was replaced by professional police teams. In England, there were also specialized "Bow Street detectives" who were responsible for "needs such as investigating, finding clues, and interviewing witnesses."

In 1786, Dublin selected innocent students from King's Medical School to form the police. They usually patrolled the streets politely in uniforms, but when a riot broke out in the prison,

At that time, they were unable to suppress the criminals and even used the army to rescue them. Instead, they used police funds to buy carpets, high-end mirrors and other luxurious items to decorate their headquarters.

William Pitt Jr. suggested hiring cavalry patrols, but was also resisted by Birmingham. The police in Belgium also have "local characteristics". Bruges hired a patrol security company, with veterans responsible for patrolling the city.

Doubtfully more reliable than the militia. But in Ghent, it is the responsibility of the community security organization. Ghent has 200 communities, each community has a church. After the residents of each community go to the church to collect donations, they then pay it to the person responsible for security affairs.

Guild organization. Community residents hope to have good public security and working environment. They not only hold regular meetings, but also consciously assume the responsibility of monitoring. Especially for new people who move into the community, local residents will be very vigilant, and newcomers have to pay a fee.

A tax called the "Welcome Tax".

If Ghent developed into a textile center in the future and mainly needed female workers, these people would need background checks. Stanley introduced an English "Bow Street Detective" to the Knights.

The situation in Mechelen is different. Mechelen has been the seat of the Supreme Court since the 16th century. The task of maintaining public security in the city is left to parliamentarians or judges. This is also the pattern in many cities. However, the terms of office of these parliamentarians and judges are different. Some

It only lasted a year, and frequent personnel changes brought difficulties to security work.

Reformers believe that it is very inappropriate to hand over security to members and judges. This job should be given to someone who can stay in this position for a long time, so that he can accumulate rich experience and be conducive to the management of the security team. And magistrates and members of parliament

It is believed that having jurisdiction over local public security is the criterion for local autonomy.

Joseph II wanted to establish a centralized police organization with uniform uniforms, clear hierarchy, and strict discipline. In addition, he also wanted to abolish the existing parliament and courts. In 1787, Joseph II had a dispute with the local governor.

Fierce conflicts. In 1788, Brabantine returned to medieval armaments and hung up the black, red, and yellow tricolor flags. He decided to strangle the revolution in the cradle and ordered the volunteer militia to disband. The volunteers refused. In early 1788, the Empire

The army opened fire on civilians in Brussels, and the Brabantine Revolution broke out. In less than a month, all of Belgium except Luxembourg revolted.

But Belgium did not form an effective government at that time, and the followers of Vandenut and Funk were at war with each other.

When Vandenut and Funk went into exile respectively, these rebels hid in the forest. These six people were originally subordinates of the twin brothers Frans Bosbick and Jan Bosbick.

Independent farmsteads in the countryside of Labantine and Gelderland were the targets of violent robberies.

In troubled times, sometimes those hiding in that forest were guerrillas with firm principles, sometimes they were bandits running rampant across the Republic, and sometimes they were both.

These six people are all more or less guilty of robbery, assault, murder and other crimes. Anyway, they are not pure angels. What surprised her even more was the efficiency of "Bow Street Detective". If he was not the reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes,

, that is, he may be related to these assassins. Of course, it is also possible that he does have his own channels. Anyway, he quickly makes people suspicious.

"Have their autopsies been examined?" Georgiana asked.

Everyone was silent.

"Is that necessary?"

She looked at each other.

"I mean, they all died of poison..."

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

"have……"

"I'm talking about the School of Surgery." Georgiana looked through the information and said, "Studying surgery requires dissecting cadavers. Do you know how in short supply cadavers are now? Even if their bodies are poisonous during life, they can be used for human medicine after death.

Contribute value.”

"You mean..."

"Anatomy, make specimens or mummies, display them, put clothes on them, list the crimes they have committed."

"this……"

"Too cruel?" asked Georgiana.

No one spoke again.

"Crutal punishments will not serve as a warning. Some people will enjoy it and celebrate it like a festival. During the Revolution, some people cut off people's heads and impaled them on spears. Cutting off a person's head in public would have been the most popular thing.

The ritual of attention…”

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

"Everything is to build fear into the basis of the festival." Georgiana said in a low voice. "This can clearly distinguish political groups. Think about that image, if someone picks a person's head with a spear, and

When you meet head-on on the street, and he asks you to shout 'Long live the nation', will you shout it?"

The other party didn't answer.

Georgiana didn't really want his answer, because Bonaparte shouted at that time, so he survived, and now he is sitting on this table and became the First Consul of France.

"What's your name?" Georgiana asked.

"Jean-Baptiste van Beethoven."

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

"Yes." Baptiste replied.

"Are you related?"

"No." Baptiste replied seriously.

She didn't react for a moment.

"His great-grandfather Michael van Beethoven was a baker and also ran a clothing store. He was doing well but got into debt due to speculation. In order to escape his creditors, he fled to Bonn. His grandfather Ludwig once

He's from the cathedral choir." An old lady said, "I still have an IOU from his family, do you want it?"

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

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

"We need to socialize later." Bonaparte interrupted their "chat" impatiently.

The old lady curled her lips, and Georgiana did not want to continue this topic.

It really has collectible value, why doesn’t the old lady keep it for herself?

The local residents of Mechelen have a strong sense of the rule of law, coupled with religious order, the overall security is very good, and their homes can almost be kept open at night. However, after their city walls were demolished, they were unable to prevent outside thieves.

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

As for whether we should follow the example and expand the scale of arrests, it depends on what Bonaparte thinks. She personally does not support it.

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

When tomorrow dawns, she will go to the Archbishop to see if he can explain the dream to her, because thanks to it, she can find some enlightenment from the chaos.
