Make France Great Again

After reading the plan, Jerome Bonaparte patted Leboeuf on the shoulder and encouraged him to let go of his hands and feet. France (or Jerome Bonaparte) would never forget his credit.

Encouraged, Leboeuf immediately patted his chest and told Jerome Bonaparte that he himself would not betray His Majesty the Emperor's trust in him. At the same time, he also asked Jerome Bonaparte how these two extra incomes should be. How to deal with it.

Jerome Bonaparte naturally understood that Leboeuf's implication was that he wanted to hand over these two "windfalls" to Jerome Bonaparte without taking the army's accounts.

"How much money can we get from the railroad and the horses?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Le Boeuf after pondering for a moment.

When Leboeuf heard what Jerome Bonaparte said, he thought that Jerome Bonaparte was going to pocket all the money, and he quickly replied to Jerome Bonaparte: "These two incomes That adds up to about 5 million francs! However, there are also some depreciation payments for guns… all of which add up to almost 10 million francs!”

"10 million francs!" Jerome Bonaparte smacked his lips, "It is indeed a large sum! Let's do it! Leboeuf, you distribute all the 10 million francs in the name of the logistics committee!"

"Send it all down?" Leboeuf stared at Jerome Bonaparte in astonishment. He really never expected that Jerome Bonaparte would give such an order.

"Yes! Post them all!" Jerome Bonaparte emphasized.

Then, Jerome Bonaparte took out a note worth 100,000 francs from his pocket and handed it to Le Boeuf.

"Your Majesty, I cannot..." Leboeuf wanted to refuse Jerome Bonaparte's reward.

"You deserve it!" Jerome Bonaparte shoved the bill into General Leboeuf's arms, and warned again: "Don't use a penny of that money! If you need anything, You can tell me anytime!"

"Yes!" Leboeuf nodded to Jerome Bonaparte.

Then, Jerome Bonaparte suddenly had a whim and asked General Leboeuf if he knew the French officers' handling of the spoils.

Leboeuf told Jérôme Bonaparte that he himself had obtained loot by looting tribes in Algiers, so he still knew something about the sale of loot.

Since the army itself is doing business without capital, many sellers who do not know one big character do not know how to maximize the benefits of the spoils in their hands, so the things they loot need to be exploited by merchants.

"Is there no one to help them organize a relatively equal platform?" Jerome Bonaparte asked suspiciously.

"How about in Algiers, it's easier to say! If those people want to cooperate with us for a long time, they must accept our arrangement! However, in a sudden war like now, it is difficult for the army to find trustworthy businessmen! Many In order to covet a momentary refreshment, the soldiers sold items that were originally priceless at extremely low prices!" Leboeuf replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

After listening to Leboeuf's words, Jerome Bonaparte was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said to Leboeuf: "Okay! Got it!"

Immediately afterwards, Leboeuf chatted with Jerome Bonaparte for a while, and then Jerome Paterson entered the room and whispered to Jerome Bonaparte that Marshal Perlisier was coming. .

Seeing this, Leboeuf quickly got up and said goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Wait a minute!" Jerome Bonaparte stopped Leboeuf, and then gave Jerome Paterson a wink.

Jerome Patterson, who received Jerome Bonaparte's "signal", turned and left the room. After a while, Jerome Patterson, holding a tray in both hands, entered the room again.

There was a silver Legion of Glory medal on the tray, and a look of excitement flashed on Leboeuf's face. He stood up straight and quietly waited for Jerome Bonaparte to personally bring him the medal!

Under the gaze of Leboeuf, Jerome Bonaparte picked up the medal on the tray, slowly handed it to Marshal Leboeuf's chest, and pinned the medal for him with his own hands!

"It's hard work!" Jerome Bonaparte patted Leboeuf on the shoulder and said softly.

Leboeuf shook his head, expressing his honor to serve the Empire.

Then, under the order of Jerome Bonaparte, Leboeuf was sent by Jerome Paterson from the Perekop fortress.

Jerome Bonaparte, led by his servants, came to the door of the room where Marshal Perissier was.

Jerome Bonaparte, who pushed in the door, saw Marshal Perlisier and Wallevsky at first sight. At this time, they were sitting on the sofa, sipping black tea.

The arrival of Jerome Bonaparte made them put down the teacups in their hands and stood up to greet them.

"I kept you waiting!" Jerome Bonaparte responded apologetically to Marshal Perlisier.

Although it is said that as a monarch, he naturally has the privilege of not keeping the time, but it is not so commendable to keep others waiting.

"Nothing! We just came here!" Marshal Perissier hurriedly handed over the steps to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Okay! Marshal Perlisier, you don't need to find the steps for me, let's get to the point!" Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand and responded to Marshal Perlisier.

"Yes!" Marshal Perlisier quickly resumed his military style and responded with a sonorous tone to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Marshal Perissier!" Jerome Bonaparte also showed a serious expression, and said seriously to Marshal Perissier: "In view of your excellent performance in the Crimean War, through the Legislative Yuan and the elders With the unanimous consent of the Court (the Legislative Yuan and the Senate still don't know about this, Jerome Bonaparte is going to get on the bus first and then make up the ticket), and grant you the title of Count of Bakhchisaray!

I hope you can make persistent efforts in the next time and continue to open up new frontiers for France! "

Hearing that Marshal Perlisier, who had conferred the title of earl, felt as if he had been hit by a million-franc lottery ticket, and the whole person felt a little overwhelmed.

You must know that this world line is different from the world line where your cousin is the emperor. The title of the Second Empire is not so random that as long as a place is captured, the titles of counts and dukes can be distributed freely.

From the early days of the establishment of the empire to the present, with the addition of Pelissier, only two earls and three marshals were conferred, as if they were on a par with the first empire.

There is a saying that what is rare is precious, and Pelissier naturally cherishes the title of earl.

Of course, if Marshal Pelissier knew that he was in another world line, and that he had obtained the Duke of Malakhov just by breaking Sevastopol, he would definitely be stingy with Jerome Bonaparte in his heart. .

"Your Majesty, I will be loyal to my silent empire until my heart stops beating!" Marshal Perlisier responded firmly to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Very good!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction, and then told Marshal Perlisier, the mansion that corresponds to the title of Count, and that the Medal of Glory matches the status of the Count, he will give it to him after returning to France. Pelissier.

Marshal Perissier nodded in understanding, and then Jerome Bonaparte asked Marshal Perissier when the French army would be able to completely withdraw from the Crimean Peninsula.

Marshal Perlisier told Jerome Bonaparte that the complete withdrawal of France might take one to two months.

After all, it has been almost half a year since France landed on the Crimean Peninsula.

It is impossible to transport all 100,000 soldiers back in a short period of time.

Therefore, they can only choose to send all their troops back in batches. In this case, it will definitely take a long time.

"When will the first group of soldiers start to leave?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Marshal Perlisier.

"One week later!" Marshal Perlisier said to Jerome Bonaparte, and then suggested that Jerome Bonaparte should return to France with the first group of soldiers.

"Nonsense!" Jerome Bonaparte frowned and reprimanded Marshal Perlisier, "I want to leave here with the last group of soldiers!"

"Your Majesty, on the Crown Prince's side..." Wallevsky, who was standing beside him, hesitated.

"Friedrich, what's wrong with him?" Jerome Bonaparte was stunned for a few seconds.

"His Majesty Pope Pius IX said that he will personally be there when the full moon is full for His Royal Highness to be baptized for His Highness!" Warevsky reminded.

"Humph!" Jerome Bonaparte snorted coldly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "When Frederick was born, our Pope patron did not come to baptize him in person (for Friedrich) . Bonaparte presided over the baptism is the Archbishop of Nancy Cathedral, the baptism and coronation of the Bourbon Dynasty were all done by the Nancy Cathedral)!

On the contrary, when the full moon is full, he runs thousands of miles to Paris!

It's so professional! "

In the face of Jerome Bonaparte's ridicule to Pope Pius IX, Marshal Perlisier and Wallevsky did not dare to discuss.

There are some words that Jerome Bonaparte, who is a monarch, can discuss at will. If they, as ministers, make comments at will, if they are caught by people with a heart (the influence of the clerical faction in France is second only to the three mainstream factions), Inevitably made a mess.

However, the incident of Pius IX is not to blame for Jerome Bonaparte's ridicule. His behavior was indeed too eager for quick success.

Wallevsky believed that if Pius IX did not receive news of the complete surrender of the Russian Empire, he would have to sit on the wall for a while.

That would have rushed to Paris like now, for fear that Paris would act as a dutiful son.
