Chapter 162： Reynolds debriefing

"Your Majesty, our..."

Wardley opened his mouth to say something.

"Do whatever I tell you to do! Where's the nonsense coming from!"

Jerome Bonaparte "roughly" interrupted Wardray and gave Wardray an order.

"Yes!" Wardray obeyed Jerome Bonaparte.

Conrobert, who thought Jérôme Bonaparte would keep the money in his pocket for a rainy day, suddenly found that he didn't seem to know enough about the president.

If it was him, he would definitely take the money so that it could be put to great use in a critical moment.

The coup d'état is not an easy road, and if you are not careful, you will lose everything.

If the coup fails, going to the UK with a sum of money is also an option.

According to Conrobel's understanding of following the president, in less than a year, the president has spent nearly 2 million francs on various projects.

However, the annual expenditure of the president is 600,000 francs, and the remaining 1.4 million francs are mostly unsecured loans that the president borrows from bankers.

[ps: Conrobel did not know that before Jerome Bonaparte became president, he still owed nearly 1 million loans to Rothschild Bank, a total of 3 million loans, of which nearly 800,000 were spent on pre-publicity. After taking office as president, the subsidy for a few poor soldiers cost about 700,000 francs, and the establishment of public medical institutions was 1 million francs. The remaining 200,000 francs were daily expenses, and many daily expenses were counted on the cabinet. 】

If the president can maintain his position, the loan of 1.4 million will not be repaid at all.

No banker dared to force a Dick to pay more.

Unless he wanted a taste of bullets.

If His Excellency the President fails, those bankers will turn into a life-threatening ghost to demand that the President repay his debts.

Those who want to leave a little way for themselves will choose to prepare enough funds for their retirement during their presidency, but His Excellency the President really does not leave a way out for himself at all.

Conrobel didn't know whether the president came from self-confidence, or whether he planned to break the jar.

Judging from the current situation, the president is mostly the former.

Only those who are confident in themselves will spend money on buying people's hearts without hesitation.

Otherwise, he will only choose to spend all the money on himself.

Since His Excellency the President has the confidence to overturn the sky in Paris, then what can I hold back... Conrobert finally gave up the last hesitation in his heart. He believed that under the leadership of Jerome Bonaparte, they would definitely be able to win!

After such self-confidence acted on Conrobel, Conrobel's state changed.

Jerome Bonaparte did not know Conrobel's psychological process, but he saw Conrobel's change and became more confident.

"Your Majesty, please transfer me to the garrison of Paris!" Canrobert said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Huh?" Jerome Bonaparte looked at Conrobert in surprise. He was a little curious as to why Conrobert made this request.

Isn't the management position of the Military Secretary Office not good?

Although the direct command of the Paris garrison is in the hands of Changarnier, how does the current Changarnier know that Jerome Bonaparte, who declared Changarnier to be the "loyal guardian of the Elysee Palace" after the June Incident, is planning He wanted to deal with him, and Changarnier, who was accustomed to relying on the center of power, unknowingly moved closer to Jerome Bonaparte, and Jerome Bonaparte also wore a coat of kindness to "honeymoon" with Changarnier.

At this time, Canrobert was placed in the first division of Paris, and Changarnier did not resist.

"Adjutant Canrobert! Why do you want to serve in the Paris garrison?" Jerome Bonaparte wanted to find out why.

Is it a personal reason or the military secretary office is not well managed!

"Mr. President, you must master the military power of the entire Paris!" Canrobert said with a slight taste.

Jerome Bonaparte instantly understood the purpose of Canrobert. He wanted to help him take charge of the most important field force near Paris.

Facing the loyal Conrobert, Jerome Bonaparte was a little moved, and he immediately asked Conrobel: "Adjutant Canrobert, who do you think is capable of taking your place!"

Unexpectedly, Jerome Bonaparte handed over the appointment and dismissal of the adjutant to Conrobert. After hesitating for a while, Conrobert had a warm feeling in his heart, but he never found a suitable person. The military rank of those in the Military Secretary Office is generally in Lieutenant Colonel, is not suitable to be the President's Adjutant at all. Those Colonel, Brigadier General's officers, Conrobel, don't know much, and most of them are unwilling to get involved in politics.

Just when Conrobel was at a loss, he remembered what Trosch said to him in the Military Secretary's Office, "His Excellency the President seems to be optimistic about General Saint Arnault." This sentence, he also remembered that General Saint Arnault belonged to Africa just like him. A member of the Legion.

If he were to serve as the presidential adjutant, General San Arnault would be grateful for his recommendation, and he himself would not lose his influence on the Office of the Military Secretary.

"Your Majesty, I propose that General St. Arnault serve as your adjutant, and at the same time serve as the "Chief of the General Staff" in the Office of the Military Secretary!" Canrobert said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Huh? General Saint Arnault?" Jerome Bonaparte looked at Conrobert in surprise, he didn't understand why Conrobel recommended Saint Arnault, and the two had no communication: "What is your reason? "

"General Saint Arnault... um..." Trosch, the crazy thinker in Canrobert's mind, said to him at first, and relayed it to Jerome Bonaparte: "He has a passion for you, for honor. , loyalty to the country..."

Completely scripted!

After Conrobert had said all the advantages of General Saint Arnault, Jerome Bonaparte took a deep breath and said, "I see!"

Jerome Bonaparte, who originally intended to belong to Saint Arnault as an assistant to the coup d'état, certainly did not mind a smooth sailing.

History has proved that Saint Arnault is a qualified conspirator. Perhaps his purpose is to get himself a high position, but the argument does not matter, as long as he can help himself.

Jerome Bonaparte called Wardray again.

"Waudley, now you immediately send someone to Algiers to find General Saint Arnault, and say he will invite the President to serve as aide-de-camp at the Elysee Palace!" Jerome Bonaparte calculated that it would take about 15 minutes to travel from Paris to Algiers. Days, come and go is 30 days.

That is to say, even after the arrival of Saint Arnault, Jerome Bonaparte has completed the reorganization of the entire cabinet.

At that time, it will be enough for General Reño to make a new appointment letter.

"Yes!" Wadley replied immediately.

"By the way! By the way, call Claude Edilneigne and Captain Henri Gustave De Vine!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Vaudrey again.

Wardray's expression was a little surprised. He didn't understand why the president knew the two captains, but he responded dutifully: "Yes!"

Conrobert on the side also showed a surprised look, he did not understand Jerome Bonaparte's intention.

After Wardray left, Jerome Bonaparte told Conrobert in a brisk tone: "I heard that these two captains have researched a new type of bullet that can effectively increase the range of the rifle, so I want to share the same See them. Maybe, I will witness the invention of a new weapon!"

What Jerome Bonaparte is talking about is exactly the Mignet bullet that brought the front-loading gun to the peak and its supporting product, the Mignet gun, and it is also a 500-year-old broken Tartar artifact.

The irony is that France invented the Mignet and the Mignet gun, and France was the last country to be equipped. Even the Austrian next door changed its clothes faster than France.

The enemy in the War Department is not a joke.

Conrobel nodded, not wanting to ask the president why he knew about the Algiers invention.

Sometimes it's good to be a little confused.

"As soon as Odillombarro steps down, you can go to the 1st Division in Paris!" Jerome Bonaparte told Conrobert.

"Yes!"

...

Night came quietly.

A voice quietly bypassed the garden outside the Elysée Palace and entered the room from the back door of the Elysée Palace. He was General Reno.

Under the leadership of Wardray, General Regnault came to a certain reception room in the Elysee Palace where Jerome Bonaparte was sitting.

General Reigno's arrival made Jerome Bonaparte stand up. Seeing this, General Reigno quickly trotted to Jerome Bonaparte and said, "Your Majesty!"

"General, you've worked hard! Sit down!" Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the seat opposite and signaled General Reno to sit down, and then asked about the situation in Rome.

Sitting in the chair, General Reño explained the situation in Rome to Jerome Bonaparte, both of whom tacitly did not ask the question of money.

"General Reigno!" said Jerome Bonaparte, pushing Reno with a cup of coffee: "I think you should know something in the letter, and now I'm repeating it! I want you to take over as Minister Liuelli. The position of the Minister of War, I don't know what you think!"

"I will swear allegiance to you to the death!" Reigno immediately stood up and saluted Jerome Bonaparte.

"I understand your loyalty!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and said: "However, I want to ask you how to deal with those people in the Ministry of War! Some people in the Ministry of War have been obstructing my implementation. Policies...they go against yin and yang, and the entire Ministry of War is like an independent kingdom where no needle can be inserted and no water can be thrown!"

"I will remove these obstacles for you!" General Reynio said in a strong tone, and his eyes became full of danger.

very good! I need someone like you!

"General, some people who are not suitable for the Ministry of War can be properly cleared! We will leave the position to some young and energetic boys!" Jerome Bonaparte said nakedly.

"Your Majesty, I will do my duty to defend you and the Republic! Anyone who dares to hinder us will be kicked away!"
