History fact; Time line
A certain Monsieur arrived in London in February 1803, he brought the happy news to the royalist in London that the republican opposition in France was ready to make common cause with them to overthrow Bonaparte. A plan of operation was worked out; insurrections would be organized, with the help of English subsidies, in Paris, the Vendee and Province, and a prince of the royal blood would land, when the time was ripe, to lead the uprising.
Monsieur the ex-cleric, ex-terrorist, ex-minister of the general police now Napoleons minister of public safety was also in this plot but, (Napoleon said of him “Always in everybody’s shoes,” he always kept a private network of agents). In August of 1803, chief of the Vendean uprising, along with a million francs provided by the British government left for France! He was followed in January 1804 by General who had escaped to England in 1798 at the time of the coup d’etat of 18 Frucitidor.

It is Jean-Charles Pichegru will not survive this story. He will end up committing suicide (maybe with some help)
