Make France Great Again

Marcel Jerug's contempt for the rebellious spirit of the Russian people not only made Herzen angry, but also gave Herzen some approval in his heart.

After all, compared with the French people who expelled two generations of kings, Russia is too docile, so docile that any local bureaucrat can oppress them to death.

Sometimes Herzen even thought that if the people of the Russian Empire could be like the people of Paris, then the officials sent by the tsar to the local areas would not dare to bully them unscrupulously.

It is a pity that the people of the Russian Empire did not have the same spirit of resistance as those in Paris. The people who had been oppressed by the Tsar and his henchmen for many years had already developed the habit of being resigned.

Because of this, Herzen believed that in order to realize revolution in the true sense, it must be a revolution by a small group of people. After this small group of elites used unconventional means (assassinations, blasting) to get rid of the Tsar, , and then take advantage of the window period between the death of the old tsar and the succession of the new tsar to take control of St. Petersburg, and then push the revolution in that place to the revolution of the entire Russian Empire, thereby establishing a new Russian Empire with a constitutional monarchy.

Because only in this way can the Russian Empire truly be broken and rebuilt.

Of course, although Herzen himself believed that the Russian Empire still needed a tsar, it did not need a tsar like Nicholas I and Alexander II. What it needed was a tsar who was completely supported by revolutionaries, preferably Tsar of the Romanov family branch.

No one who has experienced the power of the Czar will honestly hand over the power in his hands.

At the same time, Herzen also believed that the support of the Romanov family branch as tsar could reduce local resistance to a greater extent.

After all, the succession of the Romanov family was already full of bloodshed and conspiracy. Paul I and Peter III were not deposed.

Therefore, even if they kill Nicholas I, as long as they can elect a new tsar, the localities will choose to continue to wait and see because of the new tsar coming to power.

At that time, they only need to slowly clear out those die-hards to complete the reform of the monarchy.

Of course, the above is just Herzen's own wishful thinking.

Deeply influenced by the anarchism of this era, he pinned all his hopes on the dream of a few people using terrorist attacks to kill their minds and thereby change the entire system.

He has obviously forgotten that the reason why a mind has rights is that his actions are in line with the interests of the entire system. If the mind selected by the system is not in the interest of the entire system, then the mind will die.

If Herzen's desire for a country with a constitutional monarchy was in line with the wishes of some aristocrats, then his desire for a socialist country with a constitutional monarchy was not in line with the will of the entire Russian aristocracy.

The vast majority of nobles were unwilling to lose their privileges, and even after Herzen established a new empire, they would overthrow it.

Of course, Herzen doesn't know these things now, and he doesn't even have much hope for their success.

"There are indeed many nobles in our organization who are committed to revolution, and some of them are commanders of the Guards." Herzen responded to Marcel Jerug.

"Commander of the Guards?" Herzen's answer made Marcel Jerug slightly change his view of Herzen.

If this organization really had the Guards involved, it could cause some trouble for the Tsar.

"Yes!" Herzen replied to Marcel Jerug.

"Okay! You have proven your worth!" Marcel Jerug still responded to Herzen in a condescending tone: "I am willing to cooperate with you on behalf of the Intelligence Agency!"

Marcel Jerug's superior gesture, as if giving alms, made Herzen feel a little uncomfortable, and he immediately counterattacked: "How are you going to cooperate with France? Could it be that you, France, are already preparing to send troops to attack Petersburg?" ?"

"No, no, no!" Marcel Jerug shook his head and replied to Herzen: "The Russian Empire is really too big, and my monarch will not make the same mistakes again! Therefore, we will not send troops to attack St. Petersburg directly!"

"Then what do you want to do?" Herzen asked Marcel Jerug again.

"Mr. Herzen, I want to ask you something first! What is your position in your organization? Can you decide the direction of some things on behalf of your organization!" Marcel Jerug said with a look on his face. He asked Herzen seriously: "If that doesn't work, then ask someone who can make decisions for your organization to talk to me. My time is precious and I don't want to have a meaningless conversation!"

After Herzen was silent for a moment, he raised his head and asked Marcel Jerug: "Minister Marcel, can you please go somewhere with me?"

"Paris, or..." Marcel Jerug asked Herzen without any warmth in his voice.

"Right near the Bois de Boulogne!" Herzen replied to Marcel Jerug.

"Okay then!" Marcel Jerug stood up and said to Herzen.

Herzen and Marcel Jerug left the wooden house. Marcel Jerug rode in Herzen's carriage and headed towards the city. He soon left the Bois de Boulogne, and then galloped all the way, passing by After a large wheat field, we arrived at a village on the outskirts of Paris.

At this time, smoke was slowly rising over the village. Herzen and Marcel entered the village and came to the only castle in the center of the village.

"Mr. Marcel, this is it!" Herzen said as he opened the door and got out of the car.

Marcel Jerug, who was in the carriage, looked up through the window and glanced at the old castle, and then also jumped out of the carriage.

The two came to the gate of the castle together, and Herzen knocked gently on the gate of the castle.

After a while, a butler wearing a black coat appeared in front of Marcel Jerug.

"Mr. Herzen, His Excellency the Duke is resting now!" the butler said to Herzen respectfully.

"This is a guest from the Tuileries Palace!" Herzen introduced Marcel Jerug in a humorous way: "The purpose of his coming here is to discuss some matters with His Excellency the Duke!"

After the butler glanced at Marcel Jerug, who was still wearing a mask, he nodded and responded: "I'll inform the Duke right now!"

After saying that, the butler turned and left.

Looking at the butler's leaving figure, Marcel Jerug was a little curious as to what kind of person this Duke was.

After a while, the old butler reappeared in front of Marcel Jerug and said to Herzen and Marcel Jerug: "Your Excellency the Duke is awake!"

Marcel Jerug and Herzen entered the castle together and saw the so-called Duke on the sofa in the castle.

"Your Excellency the Duke!" Marcel Jerug bowed respectfully to the old man with completely gray temples in front of him.

Judging from the Duke's facial features, the old man in front of him is probably at least one round older than Herzen.

"Mr. Marcel, there is no need to wear a mask here! Are we two enemies?" the Duke responded to Marcel Jerug in a gentle tone.

After hearing this, Marcel Jerug simply took off his mask. The Duke looked at Marcel Jerug curiously, then nodded and said to Marcel Jerug: "You are younger than I thought. Got some!"

"You are much older than I thought!" Marcel Jerug replied.

"Oh? What should my image be like in your mind?" The Duke looked at Marcel Jerug with interest.

"Young and passionate!" Marcel Jerug responded decisively.

Because only young people have the momentum to break everything, and it is difficult for old people to have the courage to push everything back to reopen.

When the Decembrists staged a coup, they were a coup group composed of a large number of young people.

"Indeed! The courage that young people have is something that most old people cannot possess!" The Duke nodded empathetically, "Just like before."

As the Duke spoke, he fell into reminiscing about the past.

The memories of the past have gradually faded away, and some of those people are no longer alive.

Thinking of this, the corners of Duke Golitsyn's eyes couldn't help but get a little moist.

Marcel Jerug quietly looked at the Duke who was lost in memories. After the Duke's mood calmed down a little, he said calmly: "Your Excellency, I think we should talk about cooperation. !”

"We should indeed talk about it!" The Duke nodded, and then said to Marcel Jerug with a serious expression: "But before we cooperate, I think there should be a simple understanding process between us. I don't know if you I would like to spend some time listening to the story of an old man who is about to leave France!"

Marcel Jerug hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Of course!"

The Duke began to tell his story. His name was Mikhail Andreevich Golitsyn. He was born in a noble family with a history of more than 200 years. His family His first generation ancestors once followed Peter the Great to conquer all directions, and his fathers also served for Empress Catherine (II). Even he himself briefly participated in the Russian army during the period of Holy King Alexander I. Follow the Russian army into France.

It can be said that both of them have been loyal to the Tsar for generations. As for why Duke Golitsyn became what he is now, according to his own description, his change was due to the problems caused by following Alexander I into France (Golitsyn Duke Cen does not think this is a problem, he thinks it is the beginning of his transformation).

When Duke Golitsyn, who was deeply educated in Enlightenment ideas, entered France, he was immediately blinded by French ideas. When he entered Paris, he did not pursue gold and silver jewelry like most French officers, but instead Carload after carload of books were shipped back to Russia.

It was at that moment that Prince Golitsyn's thoughts began to change.
