Faced with Minister Saint Arnault's explanation, Jérôme Bonaparte didn't know how to refute his "reluctance to make progress" remarks.

From a historical point of view, this kind of thinking is undoubtedly a mistake, it will lead the French army into the abyss. If we stand at the time to observe, not carrying out reforms can indeed reduce a lot of troubles, and not every reform can achieve results.

Successful reforms can be remembered, and those that fail are simply swept away as the **** of history.

Adhering to the principle of doing more and making more mistakes, and doing less and making fewer mistakes, the reform impetus of the French army is not as urgent as Jerome Bonaparte imagined, and it even produces a kind of resistance to reform.

Except for Jerome Bonaparte, no one will know what will happen to France next.

Generals and marshals will only see that France has won more victories with a small army, and as long as victory can be assured, all defects can be buried.

"Mr. Minister, I still remember the first time you met me, but it wasn't like this!" Although Jerome Bonaparte understood Saint Arnault's choice, he still expressed his dissatisfaction: " How motivated you were back then, as if no problem could hold you back!

Look at you now, how did you become like this? Could it be said that the position of the Minister of War can really change a person's original intention? "

Jerome Bonaparte's words made Minister St. Arnault's face show a trace of fear. For Jerome Bonaparte, who had established a dictatorial system, the dismissal of St. Arnault, the Minister of War, was nothing more than a matter of A word thing.

What about Saint Arnault, who helped him complete the coup d'état!

The golden bottle shares the drink with you, and it is a quality that every monarch should have. The struggle between powers does not allow for the slightest mercy.

"Your Majesty, it's really..." Minister Saint Arnault tried his best to explain something, but was interrupted by Jerome Bonaparte raising his hand: "Now immediately bring everyone from the War Department to the conference hall, I'd like to see how many people want to stay on the credit and don't want to move!"

Minister Saint Arnault, who wanted to restore some of his impressions in front of Jerome Bonaparte, went to his subordinate departments to convene the bureaus and division-level officials of the Ministry of War to discuss matters in the conference hall.

Looking at the back of Minister Saint Arnault leaving, Major General Niel's mouth showed a bitter smile. He knew that he not only offended Saint Arnault, the Minister of War, but would also offend most of his colleagues in the War Department.

Nowadays, if you want to survive in the army, you have to rely on the trust of the government.

From a certain point of view, Major General Niel will be more loyal than Saint Arno and others.

After all, after the coup d'état, Minister Saint Arnault's conscious roots took root in his own small circle.

In this regard, Jerome Bonaparte still adheres to the stance of fighting without breaking, and it is the most important thing to cultivate a force that has always been completely his own.

With Minister St. Arnault's personal summons, the leaders of the various departments under the Ministry of War were more active than usual.

The time soon came to 10 am.

Logistics Department, Personnel Department, Quartermaster Department, Ordnance Department, Algerian Affairs Department, Military Affairs Department (of which the two departments of war history and surveying and mapping have been assigned to the Secretary Office), the Ministry of Finance and the Secretary Office, the Infantry Artillery Personnel Committee, the Fort Military Committee, All important members of the Military Medical Committee were present.

Before the meeting, War Department officials in the chairs were chattering, with many officials speculating that the president was likely criticizing them for deficiencies between recent military exercises.

At a quarter past ten, Jerome Bonaparte entered the meeting room together with Minister Saint Arnault, Major General Niel and Secretary of State Benjamin.

An astonishing scene happened. Minister Saint Arnault, who was the Ministry of War, sat on the left side of Jerome Bonaparte, while Major General Niel sat on the right side of Jerome Bonaparte.

To a certain extent, the order of seats represents the closeness of the monarch. Does this mean that Minister Saint Arnault has lost the love of the ruling party.

In the conference hall, there were uneasy expressions on the faces of several of Saint Arnault's cronies brought from Africa, and a smile appeared on the corners of the mouths of several generals who were against Saint Arnault.

Everyone was waiting for Jerome Bonaparte to speak.

"Defenders of the Republic, I came here today to think of a serious matter for you to discuss!" Jerome Bonaparte paused, glanced at the directors and division directors under the stage, and said, "The first paragraph Time, a military exercise jointly formulated by the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Railways, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce... To be honest, that military exercise made me very dissatisfied!

I never imagined that our army would become what it is now in just 30 years...our army would encounter so many things after going to the designated place..."

Jerome Bonaparte commented on some of the shortcomings of the French army today: "Our military station cannot guarantee the basic needs of the army, our grain collection team is a group of bandits and villains, and our soldiers, the same It's also a bunch of rabble..."

Jerome Bonaparte sternly criticized the free and loose style of France and the problems related to the inability of the military station to complete its functions. The generals who got so many technical terms from Jerome Bonaparte did not know that they must appear in the army. After seeing the "traitor", they immediately set their sights on Major General Niel, and they were sure that it was Major General Niel's whistleblower.

The corner of Major General Niel's mouth once again showed a wry smile. From the moment Jerome Bonaparte found him, he would probably lose most of his "popularity" in the Ministry of War.

Despite losing the "friendship" of his colleagues in the War Department, Niel gained the friendship of the monarch.

As long as he can learn to hold his thighs, he can be invincible.

Jerome Bonaparte, who had reprimanded him for a long time, felt his mouth dry, he swallowed and pointed at Nierre beside him: "Director Nierre, tell them about the problems in the army now! "

"Yes!" Nierre responded to Jérôme Bonaparte, and he spoke passionately about the shortcomings that everyone present was well aware of.

After Major General Niel finished speaking, the Minister of War Saint Arnault immediately applauded: "Well said!"

Afterwards, Saint Arnault reprimanded the officials under the stage with a straight face: "I told you a long time ago that you should pay more attention to anything you encounter! Major General Niel has done a good job in this regard. We gave the War Department a direction..."

Next, St. Arnault gushed about Jerome Bonaparte's "prescient" to the members of the War Department in the audience, and did not mention the contribution of Major General Nier here, the contribution of Major General Nier. seems trivial.

Major General Niel showed a sad look, and out of the corner of his eyes he looked at Jerome Bonaparte subconsciously.

Jerome Bonaparte, who felt Nier's afterglow, immediately said, "All thanks to Major General Nier!"

"That's right! Major General Niel really contributed a lot!" Minister Saint Arnault also echoed.

Then, in front of all the military bureaucrats present, Jerome Bonaparte announced that Major General Niel would be in charge of overhauling the depot for the next few years.

In order to make Niel more handy, General Jérôme Bonaparte divided all parts of the Recruitment Committee and the Personnel Department under Niel.

At the same time, it was announced to everyone present that the army will recruit from 80,000 people to 100,000 people every year, which means that the French standing army will change from 400,000 to 500,000 to 600,000.

The exemption money that the consignment needs to pay has also changed from 2,400 francs to 4,000 francs.

[PS: Considering that the number of people recruited each year is different, under the system of consignment service, the number of troops is also high and low. 】

In the end all members of the War Department agreed to Jerome Bonaparte's plan.

September 15, 1851.

The Ministry of War submitted to Jerome Bonaparte a plan for the rectification of the military station and the adjustment of the recruitment and service system. The budget of the army in the plan was submitted on a five-year basis, which means that during the five-year period, the army does not need to The issue of annual military spending is presented to the Legislative Council every year.

After reading the proposal, Jerome Bonaparte immediately approved the proposal of the Ministry of War and submitted the proposal of the Ministry of War to the Legislative Council.

After a lot of tossing about the proposal in the Legislative Council (mainly, the Legislative Council has some discussions on the ratio of urban and rural service population, members of the Legislative Council know that the so-called urban service is just to extract money from the city~www.novelhall.com ~Finally passed the proposal by majority vote.

Then, the proposal was handed over to the "Second House", and after the procedural approval of the Second House, the proposal of the Ministry of War was passed.

On September 20, Wallewski, who had been in Britain for nearly three months, finally returned to Paris.

The carriage took Wallevsky to the door of the Tuileries Palace. As soon as he got off the carriage, Wallevsky saw Jerome Bonaparte and most of the members of the Tuileries Palace walking towards him. .

"Welcome back!" Jerome Bonaparte gave Wallevsky a warm hug.

Wallewski nodded in emotion.

After the welcoming ceremony, Jerome Bonaparte took Wallevsky to a side room of the Tuileries Palace and asked impatiently, "How is it?"

"Britain has agreed to be consistent with us on the issue of the Russian Empire, and has also expressed its understanding on issues such as our pursuit of colonies, as long as it does not touch the interests of Britain..." Valevsky told Jerome in one breath. . Bonaparte said the entire content of the conversation with Britain, including joint efforts against Russia, colonial expansion and French power in the Apennine peninsula.
