Just when I was in a coma again, Paris, thousands of miles away, had a fierce debate because of the trouble caused by the Oriental boy. It was originally just a simple act of deposing the incompetent commander, but it became complicated by the intervention of various forces. The end of the fight within the army has become the beginning of the political stage struggle. As one of the parties involved, I certainly don't understand what happened.

“…

Andrew was too impulsive. He should have the soldiers kill Duop instead of coming forward.

…

Didn't he know what influence the doctor had in Paris?

…

Councillor, what do you think we will do now?"

In the secret room of Balas, Mirière seemed a little excited and uneasy. So far, he had been talking alone for more than half an hour. At this time, the only listener in the conference room, Balas was still sitting indifferently, savoring the east Biluochun in peace and leisurely, as if the assistant was just talking to the air.

Seeing this, Mirière was obviously a little angry, his tone became a little sharp, and he blamed the MP:

"Balas, are you stupid? Is it because of the several inquiries of the Commission of Inquiry that the strong, wise, and decisive Balas was frightened into a cowardly, ignorant, indecisive coward? Saint Just and others have released the damn Dopp. Perhaps now the Public Security Committee is discussing how to punish our Comrade Andrew."

"My assistant citizen, please rest for a while. Look, your tea is almost cold. You should know that this thing is expensive in Paris, as expensive as gold. Oh, it tastes so good, but it's too little and too expensive. Can't the Qing Dynasty in the East be sold to us more? And how did Andrew say that he is Chinese? Isn't the Qing Dynasty China China? I'll ask him carefully next time..." Balas didn't want to respond to Mirière's attack, but was just talking around. Finally, he was interrupted by a irritable young man.

"I'll ask, is there any chance to ask? My friend who meets us next time will be on the guillotine. Balas, do you care about our little brother in the East? He is like this for you... Okay, if you don't act, I'll go." As he said that, Mirière grabbed his coat and prepared to go out.

"Where are you going? National Convention, Cabinet or Executive Committee. As a member of the National Congress, I am almost confined to my own home, with no say, let alone voting rights. My Assistant Mirière, what can you do?" Balas asked suddenly.

Mirière, who was standing at the door, stopped when he heard this. In fact, he didn't know which one to look for, so he had to continue to go back to the room. After sitting down, he picked up the tea cup that was no longer hot, and poured it down with the tea leaves, leaning against his own position without saying a word.

"You also know which is the highest authority in France now." Seeing his assistant chewing peony-like drinking precious tea leaves like gold, Balas felt a little distressed and continued: "In people's eyes, we are Andrew's accomplices, and everything we do for him will attract a lot of slander and suspicion. Therefore, what we do now is just waiting, yes, and quietly waiting. In fact, not everyone in the Public Security Committee supports Dorpo. For example, Dandong."

"Dandong?" Miriel was a little puzzled.

"It's him, don't think he had opposed Andrew's appointment as a commissioner, but that was already two months ago. I dare say that the most insightful and sensible person in the whole of France was him. Yes, he was a little greedy, like me, liked to enjoy and pursue women's beauty, but he had sharp eyes, could see everything, know how to protect his authority and wealth, know how to unite and oppose who to the Republic, and know how to develop and future, if Mara is the son of the people, then Danton is the son of France. He must have read this love letter from the Toulon Legion, he believes that in the Public Security Committee, he can use his influence to eliminate the misunderstanding of the Legion and the commissioner, and with a gentle personality, he does not like to make a killer at all. Also, Andrew's behavior seems reckless, but in fact he does very meticulously. He used the resentment of the soldiers to remove the position of commander-in-chief, save the lives of soldiers, and avoid the Toulon Army.

The civil strife of the regiment also won the support of the army; he did not kill Dopp, but escorted it to Paris, one was to express his tolerance, and the other was to show Dopp's incompetence. I believe many people were mocking this general who was a doctor. Finally, our Eastern friends also seized the opportunity to send people to the National Convention, the Army Department, and the Public Security Commission to submit letters of love, repeatedly telling the truth about the legion. Now every cafe, street, square, theater and every corner of Paris is discussing this matter, which is also what the committee considers. In addition, the Plains Party members have contacted me, and they said that they will also support Andrew in the National Convention. You must know that General Dopp has cut down many generals in the previous army, including their relatives and friends. So, I am not worried about Andrew and his Toulon Legion, but are just afraid of another thing." At this point, Balas was a little discouraged.

"Oh, what's the matter," Mirière asked casually.

"It's also Dandong. Now he is too obsessed with Miss Louise, and may sink into it. At that time..." What Barras said later did not resonate with his assistant, because in Mirière's view, the proper solution of Andrew's problem is the most important thing at present. When Andrew wins, the MP and himself will also get rid of their worries and gain future benefits. He doesn't think about other issues, nor can he think about them more.

At almost the same time when Balas and his assistant discussed the Toulon Legion incident, in Robespierre's office, Robespierre, his younger brother Robespierre Jr. and Saint Just also argued about the difficult issue. The two sides in the dispute were Robespierre Jr. and Saint Just, who remained silent.

…

"This is a mutiny, a rebellion, and a conspiracy. I ask the Public Security Commission to immediately pass the arrest of Andrew's commissioner, and revoke his position as a plenipotent commissioner, and escort him to Paris to accept the verdict sent to the Revolutionary Court. At the same time, the crimes of other accomplices are also pursued." This is the fifth time that Saint Just himself has reiterated.

Of course, Saint Just was angry. His cousin Dopp had been in the Toulon Legion for less than a decade (the new legislation of the Republic) and was deprived of command by the young man, driven out of the barracks, and escorted to Paris like parades. When he saw his cousin's pitiful and helpless and howling, his lungs were almost blown up. He was furious and immediately found Robespierre's office. He rushed in without regard for the two brothers inside talking and asked Robespierre to convene a committee meeting and support his proposal.

"General, you should look at this love letter from the Toulon Legion. It says how your brother escaped in the face of battle, how he created an unjust case, and how he was jealous of the virtuous." The lines of Robespierre Jr. contain irony.

Robespierre Jr. also of course had reason to help Andrew speak. One reason was that he saved his life and admired his courage, wit and decisiveness. Two reason was that he knew Duopo's character, jealousy, did not understand military affairs and was extremely cruel. Three reason was that he sympathized with the soldiers. Robespierre Jr. himself had also been in the army and knew what the soldiers liked and hated. Therefore, after receiving the love letter from the Toulon Legion, he also began to discuss with some people, and finally came to his brother, hoping to convince the actual leadership of the Public Security Committee not to take excessive treatment of Andrew.

"These are lies, slander, and slander." Saint Just continued to roar. Of course, he had read this report and knew his cousin's character in his heart, but he had more emotions than reason, so he decided to demand severe punishment of all perpetrators and let them guillotine for their actions.

"Is that so? General, you can see clearly. Here are the joint signatures of all Toulon Legion officers. If you want to see the collective signatures of all Toulon Legion soldiers, I can help you out. In addition, General Doppap also strongly opposes the punishment against the Andrew Commissioner." Robespierre Jr. immediately retorted.

…

"Citizens, shut up. Do you want everyone to know the process of your argument? I have notified the members still in Paris to hold a committee meeting in 2 hours. At the meeting, I will express my views and solutions. Now, you can go back." Robespierre, who spoke without hesitation, drove the two red-eyed bulls out of his office.

Back at his desk, Robespierre sat quietly thinking for a long time. Finally, he calmed down a lot, but he picked up a mess of paper balls in the corner just now, spread them out and read them carefully again. It was a letter written by Dandong to him.

“…

My dear comrade, you may think I am cowardly, timid, and lose my fighting spirit... But Dandong still has a pair of wise eyes that can see the current situation clearly.

…

You must consider the serious consequences of hasty resolutions… whether the soldiers are spontaneously deposed or the commissioner leads a mutiny, the difference between the two will depend on your word difference.

…

The legion cannot be chaotic, the parliament cannot be chaotic, and France cannot be chaotic, so Andrew…”

Two hours later, at the meeting of the Public Security Commission held temporarily, Robespierre submitted a resolution that surprised everyone.

…

General Dopp was relieved of the position of commander-in-chief of the Toulon Front.

Andrew's plenipotentiary position of the Front of Toulon was relieved of his position.

General Dorpu was appointed commander-in-chief of the Alpine Front.

General Andrew was appointed as commander-in-chief of the Toulon Front.

Appointed the National Council member Fred as the political commissioner of the Front Army in Toulon.

The mutiny of the Toulon Legion was handled by General Andrew and Fred's military commissioner, and there was no need to report it.

The Toulon Front must rely entirely on its own strength to recover Toulon before the end of the second year of the Republic (around the end of 1793).

…

This compromise plan that takes care of the interests of multiple parties was quickly passed without too much dispute in the committee. The National Convention also voted to agree to issue it and implement it on the next day.
