Napoleon II Reborn Chapter 83

Together with Davout, Xiao Jie hurried to the city of Chartres. Although he was a little dissatisfied, the emperor had to hurry when he summoned them. The relationship between Xiao Jie and Dawu is pretty good, although they just fought against each other, but it was a matter of practice, and the personal relationship between the two of them is pretty good. Xiao Jie liked Dawu's frankness and honesty very much. Dawu also admired Xiao Jie's talent and his lack of airs of crown prince. Although there was a big gap in age between the two, they could be regarded as friends who had forgotten each other.

"His Royal Highness, why do you think His Majesty the Emperor stopped the exercise at this most critical moment?" Davout asked on the way to Chartres.

"What other reason can there be? Your Excellency Marshal! It's not because you are about to lose, His Majesty the Emperor ordered the end of the exercise in order to save you some face." Xiao Jie said lazily while riding on the horse.

Hearing what Xiao Jie said, Dawu became angry immediately, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness, you are insulting an imperial marshal. Why do you think that I am the loser? You are so sure that you can stop me The attack just now?"

"Why not? I have great confidence in my soldiers, I believe they will be able to hold their ground." Xiao Jie continued to argue with Davout. He knew that Davout would not be really angry, so he dared to speak so brazenly.

"I also believe in my soldiers, they are the most elite troops in the empire. If His Highness agrees, we can find a time to fight again to see who is stronger." Davout was helpless by Xiao Jie's words, I had to keep my face like this.

"Okay, I'm happy to accompany you." In fact, both of them knew that they would never have that confrontation time anymore. As the high-level of the empire, they also knew very well that the war in Europe was imminent, so there was no extra time for them to fight. They have endless confrontation exercises.

While they were talking, they reached the city of Chartres. Napoleon received them at the town hall in Chartres. When they arrived, the other marshals and generals had already arrived.

Once they arrive, the meeting begins. Napoleon first said: "First of all, I would like to congratulate the two commanders who participated in this exercise, Marshal Davout and Colonel Andresi. This exercise was still very successful, and both sides performed very well. I hope everyone The Legion can learn from them. Second, I announced the promotion order of the Ministry of War, because of its excellent performance in this exercise, I promoted Bessiere to General of the Empire (he was originally Lieutenant General of the Empire), and Andresi Commodore General of the Empire. Congratulations to them." Since Davout was already an Imperial Marshal, the highest rank in the military rank, he could not be promoted. On the contrary, Xiao Jie became the Brigadier General of the Empire at the age of 15, probably the youngest general in the world.

After Napoleon announced the promotion order, everyone congratulated the two people who had been promoted. Of course, there were others who were promoted as well, but they were announced by the War Department. For example, Dugel, the deputy commander of the 88th Army, was also promoted to Brigadier General, Chief of Staff Eke was promoted to Colonel, and other officers at all levels were basically promoted to one level. The Legion, which has only been formed for half a year, has achieved such enviable results that some people call the 88th Legion a shortcut to promotion.

"According to the latest news we have received, the hateful British are moving around again. They are fanning the flames around the European continent, sowing discord between us and neighboring countries, and wanting to plunder the interests of France. According to reports, the British are now actively We have provoked the relationship between us and our loyal friend Prussia, and we are also trying to win over Russia to form the fourth anti-French coalition. This is something we cannot bear. I want everyone to return to their respective troops as soon as possible and be ready to meet the enemy at any time The challenge, the victory must belong to us France." Napoleon shouted passionately.

"Victory to France!" shouted the whole room.

When the meeting ended, Napoleon left Xiao Jie alone. He said kindly: "Little guy, how do you feel?"

Xiao Jie shrugged and said, "It's not bad, but it's not as exciting as a real battlefield."

Napoleon smiled and said, "You must be very upset that I stopped the exercise at this time."

"To be honest, I'm a little unhappy. But I can understand it. After all, Marshal Davout is the most loyal marshal in the empire. We can't hurt his face in front of so many people." Xiao Jie replied.

After hearing Xiao Jie's outrageous words, Napoleon laughed loudly: "Andresi, you should be humble, especially as the crown prince of the empire. Also, are you sure you will be able to defeat Marshal Davout? Knowing that Marshal Davout has achieved his status today, it was all due to one battle after another."

Xiao Jie didn't speak, he was also thinking about this question. Although he has an advantage in weapons, his disadvantage in numbers is too obvious. He wasn't sure if he could block Davout's final blow.

Napoleon continued: "In general, the performance of the 88th Army this time is still very good, and your new weapons and new tactics are indeed very powerful. I plan to promote it in the whole army, but it probably takes Wait until after this war is over."

"Yes~www.mtlnovel.com~ We had a great advantage in this exercise, but we also exposed a lot of problems. The most important thing is that the staffing of our army is too small. For this reason It makes it impossible to use many tactics, and it can only be regarded as a relatively strong defensive force." Xiao Jie took the opportunity to complain.

Napoleon glanced at Xiao Jie, and then said: "Can I understand your words as that you want to expand the establishment of the 88th Army?"

"To be precise, that's what happened." Xiao Jie said frankly.

Napoleon frowned and said: "But you also know that the war is about to start. I am very optimistic about the combat effectiveness of the 88th Army. I am preparing to let you participate in this war. But if the troops are reorganized, then The combat effectiveness of the legion will be affected, so I doubt whether the 88th legion should be allowed to participate in this war."

"You can rest assured that the basic structure of the 88th Legion has already been established. As long as the soldiers can guarantee it, at most one month, they can form combat effectiveness after they are familiar with the new weapons, and they will never delay their participation in the war. " Xiao Jie assured Napoleon.

Seeing that Xiao Jie was so sure, Napoleon didn't stop him anymore, and agreed: "Okay then, what's your plan?"

Seeing that Napoleon agreed, Xiao Jie was very happy in his heart, and quickly replied: "My initial idea is to expand the general army into six regiments with each brigade as the backbone, plus the troops directly under the army. The number will reach about 18,000 people."

"Good guy! Double the size at once. How are you going to solve the issue of soldiers?" Napoleon continued to ask~www.mtlnovel.com~Welcome all book lovers to come and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serialized works All at ~www.mtlnovel.com~
