Chapter 2244 Fierce Frenzy IV

 Chapter 2246 Fierce Fire Frenzy (6)

In the sixth volume of Homer's Iliad, when Hector, who was wearing shining armor and holding a spear, was about to go to the battlefield to say goodbye to his son, the child was afraid of his mighty father and hid in the arms of his nanny.

Hector and his wife smiled. Hector took off the copper hat with horse hair and put it on the ground. The child immediately recognized his father and let go of the nanny.

Throwing himself into his father's arms, Hector kissed his dear son, threw him up in his arms, and then prayed to Zeus and other gods, "O Zeus, O gods, let my child be like me, in all

He became famous and powerful among the Trojans, and became a powerful king of Ilion. When he came back from the battle, some people would say, 'He is much stronger than his father.'"

He said this and handed the child to his wife. She took the child and held it in Xinxiang's arms, smiling bitterly with tears in her eyes.

When Hector saw this, he felt pity, caressed her, called her name, and said: "Poor Andromache, why are you so sad and miserable? No one can abandon me unless it is destined.

Go to the underworld of Hades. As for fate, I don’t think anyone can escape it, whether a warrior or a coward - it clamps down on us, starting from the time we are born! Go back and take care of your own business, your weaving

They also need to supervise the maids at home to make them diligent. As for fighting, that is a man's business. Of all the men born in Ilion, the first one to bear the brunt is me, Hector."

After saying that, Hector picked up his helmet with a horsehair crown and walked out, while his beloved wife walked towards the house.

In this way, Xiao Lian's new clothes were decided. If Bonaparte hadn't explained it, Georgiana would not have understood why she gave a war helmet as a gift to represent peace.

Belgium means "brave" and "martial" in the Celtic language. As long as it does not have its own force and sovereignty, Belgium will not be able to escape the fate of being taken over and over like a trophy. If you want to be independent, there is no other way than in the United Kingdom.

The other way to vote for a king with the support of such a hegemon is to use force like the United States and the French Republic. The United States is luckier than France, they are isolated in North America, and Belgium, like France, borders many countries, and the French Republic fought 7 times.

The French Alliance succeeded in establishing the country only after the War of the Alliance. Even if the Bourbon royal family is restored, it can only be a constitutional monarch. It is impossible to go back to the past with absolute monarchy.

There are two kinds of power in the world - sword and thought. In the long run, the sword always loses to thought.

"The Wealth of Nations" is not a banned book, it can be bought everywhere. If Georgiana can see the loopholes in the "Mehuen Treaty" from that book, others can also see it. Britain uses textile technology as a diplomatic tool to win over European countries.

, that’s because of the threat from France. At the same time, European countries are also sending industrial spies to explore the secrets of British textile technology, but there is a key factor - cotton. Without high-quality cotton, even if there is an identical machine, it will not be able to produce high-quality products.

Thin yarn, and this high-quality cotton is produced in the United States and India.

There is another place, Egypt, which also produces high-quality cotton. At the same time, the situation there is also very complicated, and it also involves the Suez Canal. At present, cocoa beans are mainly produced in the Congo in West Africa. It is undoubtedly tragic for a country that has become a colony, but even

Even if independence is successful, being isolated from world trade is also very bad. If Ireland has independent trade rights, they can completely ignore the British "Corn Law" and buy American corn and other grains at low prices to solve the domestic famine problem.

However, the low-priced grains in the United States will impact the interests of local farmers and cause them to go bankrupt. The colonial agricultural model in the United States is definitely not something that indigenous agriculture can compete with. England cannot force its civilians into slaves. No matter how cheap child labor is, it must be paid.

Salaries are given to them, not to mention that child laborers cannot do heavy manual labor like agriculture.

It can be seen from the Act of Union of Ireland that even if the prime minister and ministers agree to a certain condition and the king does not agree, all promises will be in vain. At worst, he will resign like William Pitt Jr., but the people who believe in them will suffer the loss.

The king agreed. If the parliament obstructed it, the third reading bill would not be passed as the legislators imagined. The "Factory Law" became a supplement to the charity law. What's more, Orange and Mary II in the Netherlands were supported by the parliament.

, they did not have the same prestige as George III. After the Salem incident in 1692, it was almost impossible for wizards to ask the king to legislate to protect and recognize wizards.

As for getting George III to agree to protect and recognize wizards now, it is even more impossible. Recognizing the existence of wizards will only make people think he is even more crazy, and people will question whether he still has the ability to rule this country.

Napoleon also had this problem now. Everyone knew the importance of steel to the country, but he imported British steel without tariffs. Georgiana was kicked out of the Tuileries Palace because of this.

However, steel only accounts for 1% of France's GDP, and steelmaking also requires coal. The penetration rate of machinery in Scottish mines is not high, and manpower is needed to carry the mines out, which increases the amount of labor but does not make money for processing. Those coal miners will

Wouldn't they riot like the Cottontown workers Wedgwood passed by on his way home from picking up his son?

It has always been the case that the only thing left to do is to starve to death. When people are about to starve to death, they will try their best to find food, so that they will find a way to survive.

France's mining industry also has ownership issues. Most of them belong to the nobility. This is a legacy from the feudal era. The Jacobins recognize that land ownership only goes back 200 years. And most people will not know it.

With this 1% figure, they would only question Napoleon's poor decision-making.

The industrialists and merchants in Paris supported him. They were directly related to the 1786 contract and knew the consequences of lowering tariffs. As long as Paris was not in chaos, even local rebellions could be suppressed with the army. Opponents could only oppose him.

Like Sieyès, Sieyès went to Napoleon. As a result, Napoleon became the first consul after the Brumaire Coup. How did the new opponents know that if they followed the same pattern, another general would not come to power?

If the sea route is cut off, you can still take the land route, but the cost will increase, and the French will hate the British who ruin their business.

Some people think that love is useless. Love will make a person unable to view another person rationally and fall into a halo effect. Under this influence, people will give a better evaluation to this person.

Hector was the brother of Prince Paris. When he went to see Paris, Paris was putting on his armor, and Helen was sitting among the slave girls, ordering the maids to complete various beautiful crafts. When he saw Paris, Hector

Ktor told him, "My good man, now is not the time for you to be angry. Soldiers are fighting and dying around the city and at the city wall, all because of you. If you see anyone avoiding this abominable war, you will also

Accuse him, and go away, before the city is completely destroyed in flames.”

Paris told Hector, “Hector, you have rebuked me justly and not too much, so I tell you that I am not sitting in my inner chamber angry and indignant against the Trojans;

Wanting to dissipate my sorrow, my wife also advised me with gentle words and encouraged me to fight. I myself thought it was best. Victory comes to different people in turn. Wait a moment and let me wear the clothes of fighting.

armor, or if you leave first, I will follow and catch up with you."

At that time, Helen cried and said, "Brother-in-law, I am a disaster. I wish that on the day my mother gave birth to me, a fierce storm blew me to the mountain, or the roaring waves of the sea, and I was caught before these things happened."

I just want to be the wife of a better person. Such a person will feel ashamed of people's anger and insults, but this person's will will be like this in the future, so I think a person like him will suffer the consequences.

Uncle-in-law, come in quickly and sit on this stool. Since your heart is more troubled and entangled than others, it is all because of my shamelessness and Alexandros' confusion. It was Zeus who brought this to both of us.

This unfortunate fate will make us the subject of songs for future generations."

But Hector loved his wife and children more, so he refused Helen's offer to stay and went home.

When Hector, who was wearing shining armor and holding a spear, was about to go to the battlefield and said goodbye to his son, the child was afraid of his mighty father and hid in the arms of his nanny. Hector and his wife smiled.

Hector took off the copper cap with horse hair and placed it on the ground. The child immediately recognized his father, let go of the nanny, and fell into his father's arms.

"You will be much better than your father." Georgiana whispered, looking at the small clothes in her hand, and then put it into the sewing box.

Then she touched the bracelet on her wrist. Last night he took off the ring with the word "destiny" on it, and there was only one bracelet on his hand that was the same as hers.

In fact, the sentence "much stronger than his father" is followed by another sentence, "bringing back bloody trophies to make his mother happy."

She didn't know what other mothers thought. Georgiana didn't like bloody trophies anyway, but the horsehair helmet was always a wonderful blessing.

At the same time, she is not that kind of woman who takes pleasure in conquest. She will not let a man fall in her arms and make him the laughing stock of her enemies.

There was a knock at the door, and then Bertin and the seamstresses came in, one of them holding a skirt in his hand.

"Madam, your dress is ready." Bertin said proudly.

"You look happy," Georgiana said with a smile.

"Of course, this is a masterpiece." Bertin said, "You will definitely be satisfied."

"I have never doubted this." Georgiana stood up, "Because it was originally a gift to the goddess."
