Make France Great Again Chapter 420

Seeing that many commanders in the capital circle were earning red faces for the order of troops going to the Near East, the Chief of General Staff, Saint Arnault, who was sitting in the conference room, stood up to maintain the entire meeting under the hint of Jerome Bonaparte's eyes. room order.

"Quiet!" Saint Arno shouted sternly at everyone present

The clamor and quarrel were all stopped under the scolding of St. Arnault, and the many commanders who were arguing fiercely remembered that this was not their reckless military camp, and the Tuileries Palace.

"Look! What have you become now! Who do you think you are?" Saint Arnault immediately reprimanded the commanders of the capital circle present.

In the face of Marshal Saint Arnault, who had already established his authority by means of an iron fist, none of the capital circle commanders present dared to contradict Marshal Saint Arnault, for fear that Marshal Saint Arnault would let them take off if they disagreed. Military uniforms just get out.

Saint Arnault looked around, and all the commanders he watched lowered their heads in a guilty conscience, looking at the commanders who were rebellious, but now they are like docile kittens who dare not say a word, an inexplicable feeling The satisfaction poured into Saint Arno's heart, he cleared his throat and said again: "I know that some of you are very dissatisfied with the plan of the General Staff! Now, I don't care how dissatisfied you are! Now that the order of the General Staff has been issued, you only have the right to choose to execute it!"

Afterwards, Saint Arnault once again regained his iron fist when he was the chief of the general staff, and he said coldly: "If anyone points fingers on this issue again, you will immediately take off this military uniform for me and go home! I don't want to let a group of outsiders watch our Army's jokes!"

Speaking of this, Saint Arnault glanced at the Admiral Dick, who was sitting on the right side of Jerome Bonaparte, intentionally or unintentionally.

All the War Department personnel except Dicko, who is outsider and who is not can be seen at a glance.

Although Dicko, who was the party, showed an embarrassed and polite smile on the corner of his mouth, he was not to mention how depressed he was.

I thought I was just here to attend a military meeting. Who would have thought that the army red deer would make a joke of infighting. Before Dicko could laugh at the army red deer, the boss of the army red deer. In the blink of an eye, he threw the pot directly on his head.

This wave of Diko has really turned into an external force that destroys the internal unity of the Army Red Deer.

"Okay! Everyone is making trouble! Let's continue to sit quietly and listen to the battle plan of the General Staff!" Jerome Bonaparte also spoke at this time, and then he said to Leboeuf : "Please continue!"

Leboeuf continued to explain to the generals in the audience the General Staff's arrangements for the war in the Near East.

After a new round of military service reform, the French Empire has an army of about 550,000 troops, including 450,000 native troops and 100,000 colonial troops (including Algeria, French Guiana, and Rome). This expedition The planned force is about 130,000, occupying a quarter of the national army of the French Empire.

These included the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, the 3rd Division (Guardian Division), a division of the Italian Front, a division under Strasbourg, and the Zhuav Brigade, five divisions and a brigade.

The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Divisions and the Zhuav Brigade will be the main force of the war, and the Italian and Strasbourg divisions will serve as reserves to supplement the lost main force at any time.

Each division will be equipped with two infantry batteries, and each infantry battery will be equipped with 6 small 6-pounder Napoleon guns, mainly loaded with solid shells, and 2 large 12-pounder Napoleon guns, mainly loaded with shrapnel. main. It is equivalent to that each infantry division can have 12 small 6-pound Napoleon cannons and 4 large 12-pound Napoleon cannons. In terms of the firepower of single-wheel infantry, the British Empire of the same period did not have the luxury of Jerome Bonaparte. .

The commander in charge of the 1st Division was Commander Conrobel, with three brigades under his command.

The commander in charge of the second division was Pierre Boliquet, a veteran of Algeria who had experienced many battles, and who was good at rushing operations, he was appointed by Jerome Bonaparte and took the position of division commander.

The commander of the Guards Division is also Pelissier. This old general who dares to fight and rush has been asking for his troops to rush to the forefront to defend against the enemy since he served as the commander of the Guards Division.

The Zhuav Brigade did not have a brigade commander, and its two regiments would support the troops at any time as the war required.

The three main divisions and two reserve divisions that set out for the Crimea will be reorganized into an expeditionary army group with legions (armies), and the person commanding this new establishment is none other than the French chief of staff, Saint Arle. Marshal No.

During the period when Marshal Saint Arnault immediately went to France to the Near East, the training of the local army was entrusted to Major General Niel.

It can be said that Niel will become the de facto home chief of staff after Saint Arnault leaves France.

This is good news for Niel's ongoing troop recovery efforts, where an acting chief of staff has far more influence than a logistics director.

After the staffing of the War Department was introduced, Leboeuf began to formulate a war plan against the Russian Empire.

When the Imperial Navy sent everything to Varna, the Varna region had to set up a radio station in the shortest possible time in order to keep in touch with Paris at all times.

Then, the French army can decide as the case may be. If the Ottoman Empire can still see the defense of the SilistrRuse line, then the French will take the naval warship to Sevastopol to attack the Sevastopol naval fortress, and take down the stronghold of the Russian Empire in one fell swoop.

The French Empire army occupying the Sevastopol fortress can join forces with the Ottoman Empire to attack the Caucasus to the east, and to the west can attack Odessa and destroy the living forces of the Russian Empire.

On the other hand, if the Ottoman Empire faces defeat in the battle with the Russian Empire, the French Empire will immediately go to the Silistra fortress to help the Ottoman Empire drive the Russian Empire out of Moldova, the Principality of Wallachia, and then go north to occupy Ode. sa.

"I hope that group of fanatical religiousists can persevere! I don't want to fight those **** Slavic animals without any defense!" Saint Arno said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

The faces of everyone present showed cheerful smiles, and the detailed plans of the General Staff made them full of confidence in the upcoming victory of the war.

Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte once again asked the Admiralty, Dicko, if the navy could safely deliver the French Empire troops to the Ottoman Empire.

Dicko got up quickly and assured Jerome Bonaparte that the Imperial Navy would surely deliver the Imperial Army safely to the Ottoman Empire.

At the same time, Dick also told Jerome Bonaparte, France's new wife... ah no! It is the new ship that is about to be launched, and this ship will become another monument in France.

"I am looking forward to the excellent results of the new warships!" Jerome Bonaparte encouraged Dicko with a smile.

The appearance of ironclads has indeed changed the pattern of naval warfare to a certain extent.

It is a pity that France, as a first-mover country, cannot devote all its energy to the navy like Britain. It is foreseeable that the slight advantage of the French Empire's navy will soon be surpassed by the neighboring kingdom of Britain.

However, even so, France still has to build a new navy.

The military competition was a **** marathon. Only by continuing to chase the back of Britain without stopping could France be able to suddenly overtake Britain in a corner at a certain moment.

"Let's take action, everyone! I will wait for the news of your triumph at the Tuileries Palace!" At the end of the meeting, Jerome Bonaparte made his final concluding comments.

Chief of the General Staff Saint Arnault hurriedly stood up and assured Jerome Bonaparte: "Please rest assured, we will never betray your trust in us!"

All the military commanders present saluted and shouted loyalty to Jerome Bonaparte at the same time. Jerome Bonaparte also returned the salute to the military commanders, and then ended the pre-war mobilization meeting.

The door of the Tuileries Palace slowly opened, and the carriages carrying the military commanders of the capital circle left the Tuileries Palace one after another.

After Jerome Bonaparte said goodbye to the last military commander, Mocart came to Jerome Bonaparte to report to Jerome Bonaparte about Richard Metternich's audience. News~www.mtlnovel.com~ Your Majesty, Secretary Richard Metternich is just outside the Tuileries Palace, would you like to meet him! ' Mocar asked Jerome Bonaparte respectfully.

Jerome Bonaparte pondered for a moment, then replied with a smile: "It's okay to meet him! We have to let our quasi-ally know the current situation of the Austrian Empire! Mokar, you go and take Richard. Mister Metternich, please come to my study!"

After receiving the order, Mocart left the conference hall, and Jerome Bonaparte also left the conference hall. He will wait in the study for Mocart to bring Richard Metternich over.

Jerome Bonaparte had just returned to the study from the conference hall, when Mocar led Richard Metternich into the study.

"Your Majesty!" Richard Metternich hurriedly bowed to Jerome Bonaparte and called.

Jérôme Bonaparte, sitting on the golden-edged mahogany seat (the elegant one is the royal seat), crossed his legs, put his hands on his chest, and put on a very relaxed attitude towards Richard Metternich. Said: "Mr. Richard Metternich, please take a seat!"
