On this day, 143 years ago, on December 31, 1882 (November 22, 1882, the French defender of the Republic, Gambita, passed away. In September 1870, people in Paris were in panic. After the defeat of Sedan, the Prussian army marched in and occupied the entire northeastern part of France, surrounded Metz, and approached Paris. France was dying at a critical moment, but the French defense government blindly compromised and surrendered. People were worried about the fate of the motherland. Thousands of workers petitioned the government to take up arms and devote themselves to the battle to defend the motherland. The defense government was forced to agree to the people's organization of the National Self-Defense Corps, which suddenly formed 194 battalions and 300,000 troops. However, how to organize the military forces of other provinces and take a unified action with Paris to attack the Prussian army? This has become an urgent and difficult problem to solve. On October 7, an extremely large balloon appeared above Paris. It slowly rose and drifted in the wind. It flew over the blockade line of the Prussian army before falling down. There was also a person on the balloon. When the balloon landed on the ground, he had already fainted and lay on the ground for a while before slowly waking up. He is Gan Bida, the representative of the war faction of the defense government and Minister of the Interior. In order to save the motherland from danger, he has long put his life and death at risk. Gambidow was born in 1838 in Cahors, southern France. I studied hard since I was a child. I graduated from college with honors at the age of 22, obtained a bachelor's degree, and became a lawyer. He opposed the Second French Empire and advocated republican politics. In 1869, he entered Parliament as the "irreconcilable opposition" of the empire. From the parliamentary rostrum, he publicly stated that he would replace imperial government with a republic. After the Franco-Prussian War, the Second Reich collapsed and was replaced by a national defense government, and he served as Minister of the Interior. After flying out of Paris, he risked a narrow escape and arrived at Tours, the seat of the defense government delegation. Seeing that no one was in charge of the military, he served as Minister of the Interior and concurrently served as Minister of the Army, reorganized the army, recruited new soldiers, and quickly formed a team of 600,000 people. He called on the French people to "muster up courage and make up determination to overcome the terrible disaster that befell the motherland." They also recovered the city of Orleans in one fell swoop, causing a heavy blow to the Prussian army. However, Thiers and others signed a traitorous surrender agreement with Prussia, which made Gambita very angry. He publicly condemned Thiers 'traitorous behavior and angrily withdrew from the parliament. But half a year later, he was re-elected and devoted himself to the struggle against the restoration of the dynasty and the defense of the republic. He became Speaker of the House of Representatives in 1879 and was ordered to form a cabinet in 1881. He resigned and returned home due to lack of support. He died on December 31, 1882. He fought for the republic at home and resisted strong enemies abroad all his life. He had high prestige in the eyes of the French people.
