Chapter 2672 blind date

 Chapter 2674 "Beast Alliance" (2)

Napoleoni was a storyteller. He not only told stories to the soldiers during the expedition to Egypt, but also wrote his own stories. "Crison and Eugenie" was written in 1795. At that time, he joined the Jacobin

The faction had fallen, and although Napoleon escaped from prison, he still fell into a low point in his life. In addition to writing novels, it was also during that time that he discovered the not-so-famous "Napoleonic Law."

In 1794, he went to Genoa and conducted a detailed investigation of the attack on Genoa. In fact, in history, it was the Venetians who actually signed a contract with the French and wanted to obtain half of Lombardy, and the French king who signed the contract with the Venetians was not Charles.

VIII, but his successor Louis XII, who had been Duke of Orleans.

Charles VIII's entry into Italy caused panic in relevant countries. Milan, Austria, Venice, and the Papal States formed an anti-French alliance. When Charles died of illness in 1498, Louis XII inherited his throne and inherited his plan to attack Italy.

In the same year that Louis XII signed a treaty with the Venetians to abandon Jarra on the Adda River and Cremona, Genoa also announced its separation from Milan and accepted French protection.

Georgiana didn't rush to correct him when she listened to his story. Firstly, she really didn't know the history, and secondly, because she knew he didn't like someone to correct him like a tutor.

More importantly, the Republic of Genoa was not a strong military country, so many people went to other countries to find a way out, such as Columbus, who was a Genoese.

What really allowed the Genoese to "rule Europe" was the financial field. When the Eighty Years' War against Spanish rule broke out in the Netherlands, the economic center of Europe shifted to Genoa. During this period, Genoa was extremely prosperous, and Genoa also gained.

With the huge wealth that can control Europe.

Around the 13th century, the Genoese founded "Mahona", which was the predecessor of many chartered commercial and colonial companies such as the Dutch, British East India Company, and West India Company. There was another "Mahona", also

The Bank of San Giorgio was not just an internal company for bankers and shareholders, it even managed the revenue of the Genoa government and sometimes some territory, almost becoming a state within a state in Genoa.

But these good days were gone forever with the rise of the Netherlands and Britain in the north. But more importantly, the bankruptcy of the Spanish royal family caused heavy losses to those Genoese merchants, and many people also went bankrupt. By the time Napoleon entered Italy

By that time, they had no money left.

When Massena was besieging Genoa, he tried to send someone out to buy food, but he came back with bills and gold coins.

The Genoese people collected some of the money. After all, it was inconvenient to carry money with them when marching and fighting. The Genoese bank could remit the money back to France. At the same time, Napoleoni also gained the "friendship" of the Genoese people.

The Genoese themselves also participated in the Crusades. Before the Crusades, the Genoese business model for the peoples along the Mediterranean coast was like this. If they cooperate, the Genoese are high-quality merchants. If they do not cooperate, they will raise the pirate flag.

Get up and fight until the other party cooperates.

In addition to protecting its own territory, the Venetian navy must also protect the cities and ports that cooperate with them.

It is common sense to arm merchant ships in Europe. It is even possible that a merchant ship that was robbed by pirates would become a pirate the next moment in order to recover the losses.

In Napoleon's novels, Kristen and Eugenie met at a mineral water summer resort. He was deeply attracted by Eugenie's fresh face and beautiful eyes. He forgot the war, the sordidness and frustrations of the past, and she

Like mineral water, it washed away his resentment against all the injustices in the world, and he lived a simple life like a recluse.

Even if Crison, as an officer, was recruited again, he could not think of Eugenie all the time when leading the army. He wanted to go back, even more than his people and the army expected of him.

Those letters written to him by Eugenie gave him strength and nourished his increasingly dry heart. Perhaps the hail of bullets on the battlefield could not scare Chrisson, but when his letters from Eugenie became fewer and fewer, he felt

Fear and uneasiness, even to the point of anxiety and worry.

Finally one day, dawn was approaching, but sirens rang across the sky. Chrisson knew that this place was about to be soaked with blood, the army began to march, and drummers were boosting morale, but he still thought about Eugenie and what she would say,

do what?

In the end, Chrisson was killed in battle, just like the tragedy Napoleon loved to watch, and "The Sorrows of Young Werther", he died on the way to victory, and Eugenie also became a widow with a child.

Without the reminder from this Genoese, Georgiana would not have remembered that Bonaparte once wrote her a letter, in which he said that he saw a mother begging with her baby on the roadside. The woman was a soldier.

His wife, her husband died in the war, and now she is alone, looking for a better refuge. He asked her if she planned to raise the child in her arms alone, and she handed him a letter. That was

In the last letter her husband wrote to her, he said that he loved her and would love her until his death, but there was no mention of asking her to raise their children.

Then the woman told him that she knew it was difficult to raise a child alone, but she did not intend to give the child to an orphanage and start over. In the past, she felt that if she was reduced to begging on the street, she might as well die, but now this

The child is her hope for continued support.

When Eugenie parted from Kristen, her face was pale, she looked very weak, and her voice was hoarse from crying.

Can she be so weak and raise her and Kristen's daughter independently?

Even when Georgiana lost her judgment for love, she never thought of replacing Josephine, not just because Josephine had the protection of marriage.

She felt that Bonaparte loved Josephine, not to mention that he could not ignore the expectations of the people and the army like Creerson in the novel.

As for the other man she loves, he doesn't have so many burdens. He can do anything for the person he loves, but he doesn't love her.

She felt physically and mentally exhausted. Although she still looked young on the outside, her soul was already old. Maybe before long, like Albus, she would no longer feel the pain of love.

"You look very tired. Didn't you sleep last night?"

Georgiana looked back and saw the purifier from the United States.

"It has nothing to do with you." She replied indifferently.

At this time, he came over and whispered in her ear.

"I knew you were evil, witch, look at what you did."

Georgiana looked at the museum. Although at first the guests did not want to deal with the women dressed in ancient Greek costumes, now they were laughing with them and playing with the artifacts that ordinary people were not allowed to touch.

"You are Satan's lover."

"If I go to hell, can I stay away from this place?" she asked.

The purifier seemed to be frightened by her words and could not say a word for a long time.

"You know, what does a truly outstanding liar look like?" she said coldly, "It's not about how cunning he is, or how well-planned and perfectly coordinated he is, but because he inspired the people and changed the face of the world."

After saying that, she left, walked to the room next door where medieval weapons were stored, and took down a two-handed sword from the wall.

"Which one of you knows how to use it?" she shouted to the crowd.

No one, including the soldiers and the men who were used to hot weapons, answered.

"I will." said the female dragoon Figore.

"Show me a show," said Georgiana.

Figol took the two-handed sword from her hand.

"You can't do it." A man said provocatively towards Figor.

"You just have to watch." Figol said, then looked ahead firmly.

After taking a deep breath, Figor took her first step firmly, the swords in her hands were rounded, and she moved forward slowly and firmly as if she was cutting through thorns.
