Fox of France

The atrocities mentioned by Louis refer to the burning of Detroit by the British army. Although the method of burning cities with incendiary bombs was invented by the French, the French used incendiary bombs to burn down the cities of pagan pirates and barbarians in order to liberate tens of thousands of oppressed and enslaved Christians , is a just move supported by the Pope, the whole of Europe, and even the whole world. When the French burned the city, it was the fire from heaven that God sent down through the hands of the French, just as He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah with his own hands, fully embodying the justice of God.

But what the British did in Detroit, it was a complete atrocity! What they attacked were people who also believed in Jesus Christ, and it was a city built by noble white people; what they burned to death were devout Christians who were still calling the holy name of Jesus Christ when they were dying. Such atrocities show that the British are no longer worthy of being regarded as civilized people. They should be regarded as terrible and evil barbarians like Atla and Temujin!

Only because the transatlantic wire telegraph is not even a shadow. Although the military-industrial complex already has the wireless telegraph technology, considering that the wired telegraph is more profitable, (because the wired telegraph needs to set up lines, it needs to have an amplification and forwarding every other section, so it can bring more business) so this kind of Things were shelved and kept strictly confidential. Only some warships of the navy have this thing, and it is still under high secrecy. Except for the captain and the communication officer himself, no one else even knows the existence of this thing. Therefore, these news will not be transmitted back to the European continent in a short time, so the European version of "Science Pravda" has not had time to issue a similar editorial. But in Louisiana, "Scientific Pravda" has begun to curse the British with a headache.

Of course, with the development of Louisiana, things about transoceanic radio communications gradually began to be arranged. Talleyrand was discussing with the Portuguese the purchase of Flores, the easternmost island of the Azores, from them. They plan to build a wireless relay station here, and then build a wireless relay station on St. Pierre Island, which originally belonged to France, so that the old and new continents can be connected by radio.

However, this plan is still a plan, and there is still a little time before it can be implemented, and it will be a while before it can be put into use.

As Louisiana's "Scientific Pravda" began to scold, the French in St. Louisiana who usually spoke German also immediately organized. The St. Louisiana National Guard began mobilizing north along the Mississippi River to guard against the possible threat to St. Louisiana from "new age barbarians."

In the process, Louisiana's "Scientific Pravda" also found a little girl named Hannah who was said to be a survivor of the Detroit fire. What's more terrible is that this little girl is still French, although her French is not very standard. According to her, before the war broke out, the whole family happened to go to Detroit to trade furs. Because of a dispute over a little money, the family did not leave Detroit immediately after the war began. This is also normal, who would have thought that the British would make such a crazy move?

Later, even though the British were approaching the city, Hannah's family did not panic because this was not their war. And they are French, they hold French passports. The French passport says: "No matter where you are in the world, the powerful French army is your strong backing." Don't those British dare to do anything to a French family holding a French passport?

However, what I didn't expect was that the British dared to commit the worst crimes in the world and burned the city directly with incendiary bombs. Hannah's family also fell into the sea of ​​fire. Hannah's father escaped from the sea of ​​fire holding Hannah, but her mother, brother, and several other uncles all died in the sea of ​​fire, even Hannah's The father, also badly burned, died shortly after escaping from Detroit from a severe infection following his burns.

Then the French consulate in Ottawa protested to the British, demanding that the British immediately hand over the murderer of the French citizen to the French for trial and compensate the French for their losses.

In this regard, the British Governor-General in Canada expressed that they expressed their condolences for the tragic death of French citizens and were willing to give some compensation to the families of the victims out of humanitarian spirit. But the emergence of this tragedy is not the responsibility of the British, but an inevitable accidental injury in the war. In addition, if the British army violated military discipline, it should also be investigated and tried by the British courts. Therefore, "hand over the murderer to France for trial" is a completely unreasonable request, and the United Kingdom will never agree.

After receiving this reply, the Louisiana Governor's Office immediately announced that it would lift the ban on commercial loans and arms embargoes to the United States announced some time ago due to trade disputes.

After getting the news, the Americans, who were in retreat, rushed forward immediately and hugged the French's thigh tightly. President Thomas Jefferson sent a special envoy to discuss with Mr. Marcel, the French governor in Louisiana, hoping to Can get help from French friends. Not only do they hope to get weapons and technical guidance from the French, they even hope that the French can directly send troops to help the Americans fight the "evil British" like King Louis XVI did.

However, Governor Marcel has no idea of ​​selling his head to aid the United States. He said that his authority is limited. As a governor, he does not have the power to declare war on another country, unless they directly cross the border and attack cities belonging to France. Therefore, although he is very sympathetic to the situation of American friends, he can only make unrestricted purchases of all "civilian weapons" in Louisiana, as well as engage in most activities that do not threaten the security and safety of France. profit business.

The Americans also proposed that they hope to lease two new cruisers belonging to the French Squadron in Louisiana. In this regard, Governor Marcel did not immediately refuse. However, he said that this matter is theoretically beyond the scope of his power, and if only he supports it, it will not work.

Jefferson's special envoy immediately understood what the governor meant, that is, the governor hoped that he could win over a real influential figure to endorse this matter. As for who this big man is, everyone knows that in Louisiana, there are two governors, one is light and the other is dark, one is Governor Marcel who lives in the Governor's Mansion, and the other is the governor who lives on the top of the mountain. Chairman of the "Louisiana Development Bank" of the "White Castle" of the "Louisiana Development Bank", First Consul of the French Republic, Emperor of the Roman Empire, Invincible Imperator, Protector of Corsica and North Africa— —Louis Bonaparte, younger brother of His Majesty Napoleon Bonaparte.
