According to the routine discussed, Robespierre began to publish articles in many newspapers, violently attacking Lafayette was conspiring to launch a war to undermine democracy and become a dictator. He said that the people of Paris and even the entire French people should keep their eyes open, be alert, and thwart the conspiracy of this ambitious man.

"If Lafayette's conspiracy is really successful, France will fall into a more tragic situation than the autocracy of the feudal emperors in the past. Because no matter what, Louis XVI was still an orthodox king, but what was Lafayette? Just a tyrant! Then the blood shed from the people in the Bastille was all cheaper in the struggles. This is intolerable! Well, although Robespierre was a rebellious party, his revelation of Lafayette was still sharp." Earl Rodolph looked at the article in his hand and smiled at a young man next to him, "Let's publish this article in "Orthodox France."

"Earl, will such a rebellious article be harmful to us by publishing such a rebellious article in "Orthodox France"..." the young man asked hesitantly.

"So, Phoebes, I'll ask you about this matter. I'll give this article an editor's introduction. We must criticize the fallacies and presumptions in this article, so that people can recognize the true faces of rebellions, and give comments on these things that have told a little truth. Isn't that good? " Earl Rodolph smiled.

"You are right, Mr. Earl," Phoebes replied, "I hope that one day we can hang all these rebellions on the poles of street lamps!"

"There will be one day, Phoebes, don't worry, believe me, there will be one day. Everything will be fine, there will be one day when the Jacobins and the Lafites are hung on the street lamp poles and smelly! But for this day, we must work immediately."

...

"The Austrians dared to threaten the great France, which was definitely an untolerant offense to the majesty of France. Those Austrians probably forgot what France's bayonets and military boots looked like. I don't understand that when France was insulted like this, there were cowards who jumped out to call for peace..." Robespierre couldn't help laughing when he read this.

"Mr. Robespierre, you can laugh when others are slandering your reputation like this." Saint Just said indignantly.

"Reputation? Robespierre's reputation?" Mara laughed, "What kind of reputation does Robespierre have? Didn't Robespierre's reputation be rebellious long ago, and have you been a bandit? I think I was very polite to him in the text just now. If I scold him, it wouldn't be just like this."

"Mr. Mara, this is not an article in the newspapers of the royal party, nor is it an article in the newspapers of the Lafite Club. It is an article in the centrist newspapers." Saint Just said.

"It's the fence-riding articles." Guzman interrupted. Guzman was Mara's best friend, just as Saint Just was Robespierre's best friend.

"Yes," said St. Just, "but a lot of times we need to get these fencemen on our side."

"Stop dreaming!" Mara said, "Let me guess what the name of the newspaper you have in your hand? It should be "Paris Business"? Its master is Cravier, that banker, right? How could a banker not like war? Since Robespierre publicly opposed the war, to be honest, they were so polite to him, it was too gentle. In addition, didn't you propose to let our people propose restrictions on the price of food? If we propose these, we will be scolded even more."

"This is a necessary price, Louis." Robespierre said calmly, "The key now is how Lafayette is ready to react."

...

How would Lafayette react? In fact, Lafayette has not responded yet. Lafayette has to deal with too many things now, and it is not time to react to it for a while. Moreover, Lafayette discovered that since Robespierre attacked him and tried to start a war, there seemed to be many centrists helping him fight back against Robespierre, so he felt that he should slow down first, see everyone's reaction, and then respond.

Lafayette slowed down for another two days. After two days of delay, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. Because he found that many people were indeed attacking Robespierre, but they attacked Robespierre, all of whom were too weak to attack him, and were afraid of the threat of force from a Catholic country like Austria. I wonder if France is the most capable of fighting among Catholic countries? I wonder if France is best at beating Catholic countries? It is a shame for the French!

What Lafayette is most concerned about is that he did not become a military dictator and his intention to undermine democracy, but no one mentioned it at all. Not only did they not mention it, but some people said that if they could defeat foreign enemies, it would be nothing wrong with having Caesar.

But Lafayette knew that these people said, "It's nothing bad to have Caesar", but that was just a means to deceive themselves into supporting the war. If they really wanted to be Caesar, they were afraid that those who said so now might immediately give him a knife from behind him, and then stand by his body, and give a very wonderful article called "I Love Caesar, But I Love Rome More". Wrong, it should be a speech in "I Love Lafayette, But I Love France More", and then turn France into a republic.

And Lafayette also knew that the current situation of the army was not very good, and it was not the time to fight. In a sense, Lafayette did need war, but unlike the royal party, what he needed was a victorious war, a war of preparation. If the discussion was too intense and Congress immediately passed the decision to declare war, it would be detrimental to him.

"This situation must be stopped immediately!" Lafayette knew the importance of public opinion, because when he was in North America, he knew that the preparation and organization of the North American war were inseparable from local public opinion.

So the media under Lafayette's control began to act. On the one hand, they attacked Robespierre, but on the other hand, they also promoted to people that although France never feared war, "peace has not reached a period of fundamental despair, and never sacrifices lightly; before the sacrifice has reached the last moment, they will never sacrifice lightly." Moreover, Lafayette has never had the idea of ​​becoming a military dictator.

Although Lafayette hated Robespierre more and more, in fact, at least on the issue of delaying the war, Lafayette also became a ally of Robespierre.

This has caused Lafayette and Robespierre's reputation among the centrists to drop a lot. This is normal, because the centrists are actually the people who were called the Girondistans in later generations. Most of them are big merchants and big bankers. For them, war is an opportunity to make a fortune. As long as the final result is not the destruction of the country, war is not a bad thing for them. Therefore, those who clearly express their opposition to the war are blocking their way of wealth.

But Lafayette also knows that war is inevitable. Even the people in the Feiyang Club are actually looking forward to war in their hearts. Lafayette may really not want to be a military dictator, but the reason why many people in the Feiyang Club are willing to follow him is actually looking forward to him becoming a military dictator like Caesar. If Lafayette acts too disappointed them, then they may also...

Banker Cravier is receiving a guest in his home on Selfandoni Street. The guest is also named Joseph, but Thaksin Fouche.

"Thank you, Mr. Fouche," said Cravier. "The information you have provided me is very important to me. His Excellency Lafayette is really..."

Speaking of this, Cravier shook his head, but stopped talking further.

"Mr. Lafayette is too concerned about the overall situation," Fouche said.

"But we don't need to maintain the big picture that we are today. I need the big picture to change. Mr. Fouche, don't know what help you can provide me? Everyone knows that I am a moral person and never treat anyone who has helped me unfairly." Cravier looked at Fouche and said slowly.

"You need war?" Fouche asked.

"Yes." Cravier replied briefly.

"But I heard that due to possible wars and turbulent situations, some of your bank's loans are difficult to recover. So it is very likely that none of them can guarantee that the certificates of deposit in your bank can be withdrawn normally." Fouche asked again.

"Ah, you heard this rumor, too?" Cravier smiled, "so I need something more turbulent as soon as possible."

"This is a bit difficult, but your washing action does not require such great turmoil." Fuche said, "In addition, I can help you get a thread with another friend..."

...

That morning, Joseph went to work as usual, but on the way, he happened to meet Kano, who was full of sorrow.

"What's wrong, Lazar, you seem to have something to worry about?" Joseph asked.

"Joseph, which bank does your money have?" Kano asked back.

"There are some in the Bank of Cravier, and some in..." Joseph replied.
