On [[13 Vendémiaire]] in 1795, royalist forces marched on the Convention. The Convention ordered Barras to take military action against the royalists, although Napoleon became the ''de facto'' leader during the battle. Barras ordered Napoleon to fire on the royalists with his [[Cannons|cannon]], ensuring a decisive victory for the Republic. Following this, Barras became the president of the Directory.<ref name="ACU"/>
