Make France Great Again

"Bishop Antonelli!"

General Reinho stared straight at Antonelli, his pair of gem-like deep blue eyes seemed to be able to see clearly all the filth and filth in Antonelli's heart, and his body exuded a beast-like brilliance. The breath even scared the courtier next to the pope back several steps.

Antonelli, who was pampered in Rome on weekdays and was respected by the monarchs of various countries, had never seen this posture before. He said to General Reinho with a trembling voice: "General... General, can I... am I wrong? "

General Renio continued to stare at Antonelli with his sharp eyes and said slowly: "Mr. Antonelli, don't you think a short thank you is really too cheap?"

"I..." Antonelli opened his mouth and couldn't speak, he understood General Renio's subtext.

What an insatiable fellow!

Antonelli couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Now is the time when French soldiers are needed to restore Rome for them. The only thing they can count on is the French Republic.

[PS: During the talks between France, Spain, Naples, and Austria on the issue of the Papal State, Austrian diplomats followed the order of the new Austrian Foreign Minister and Prime Minister Prince Schwarzenberg and refused to provide assistance to the Papal State, and will restore the Pope The task of the French, in order to hold France. Naples and Spain can only sway along the line of the Austrian Empire due to their own lack of strength. The only thing Pius IX could rely on was the French Republic. 】

"Cheap thanks are certainly not enough to express His Majesty the Pope's gratitude to President Napoleon!" Antonelli showed a flattering smile, his body slightly bent: "His Majesty told me that once he returns to Rome, he will continue to work in Rome." Spread the Gospel of God!"

Afterwards, he said cautiously: "I personally think that Mr. President should not only be satisfied with the position of President. I believe that with God's blessing, Mr. President will be further promoted..."

General Reinio, who had received the promise from Pope Pius IX, showed a smile on his tense expression, and his uncomfortable eyes like beasts gradually changed to those of the grandfather next door.

Antonelli breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that General Renio basically agreed with his "return" plan.

At this point, Antonelli couldn't help but boldly said: "Your Majesty sincerely hopes that the Bonaparte drivers can return to their original positions, and we also sincerely wish that Bonaparte can protect France from generation to generation!"

The Papal State, which once had some "deep hatred" with the Bonaparte Empire,

Today, it has become the "Allied Army" of the Papal State.

This undoubtedly shows that the Papal State can cooperate with any country, as long as they can ensure that their power in Central Italy will not be violated.

Compared with the Papal State, which can freely jump around in the diplomatic field, the Austrian Empire based on conservative diplomacy is more like a "religious" country full of strong atmosphere, and the master of this country, Joseph Franz, is even more Pope Pius IX was a more conservative guy.

At least Pius IX had to implement a conservative policy for his own power, and Joseph Franz himself was consistently conservative.

"I believe Mr. President will be happy!" Renio nodded in satisfaction, and added: "If Mr. President is happy, we will be happy too!"

"Yes! Yes!" Antonelli nodded and said to General Reinho.

At this moment, Edgar Ney ran in. As General Renio's adjutant, he reported to General Renio: "Commander, we have received news that Garibaldi's first group will be here today. Break out towards St. John's Gate in the evening!"

Before General Renio could respond, Bishop Antonelli, who was standing beside him, blurted out: "We must not let them break through!"

Bishop Antonelli, who knew something about the situation in the Roman Republic, certainly knew Garibaldi's "great achievements".

If this number of people are allowed to escape, the Papal Kingdom may never see peace.

In fact, Antonelli still hopes to establish an armed force that has always belonged to the Pope. The French army only needs to help the Pope restore the country.

Antonelli's words caught the attention of General Reinho and Edgar Ney.

After more than a month of running-in, Edgar Ney and Renio have already reached the "skill" to understand each other's thoughts just by using eye hints. General Renio's eyes signaled Edgar Ney to leave. go.

After Edgar Ney saluted Reinho, he left without paying attention to Antonelli at all.

"Dear Commander!" Antonelli looked at General Reinho anxiously, and his words became more respectful.

"Don't worry! Bishop Antonelli, my soldiers and I will definitely keep Garibaldi here!"

After all, General Reinio stomped his feet twice with his heel and emphasized: "Here (referring to the inner city of Rome) will be his burial place!"

"But, what if..." Antonelli said unwillingly.

"Don't worry! Your Excellency, I will personally supervise this battle!" General Renio assured Antonelli again, "Why don't you go to the battlefield with me and witness with your own eyes how the French soldiers killed Garibaldi!"

Antonelli was a little moved.

However, Reinho's next words dispelled Antonelli's thoughts: "I'm afraid that the bullets will not have eyes on the battlefield. If your Excellency Bishop dies unfortunately..."

Reinho shook his head and sighed, as if Antonelli was doomed to die on the battlefield.

Antonelli, who mustered up his courage, shrank back in an instant.

Right now, the city of Rome is full of rebels. They hate Bonaparte's loyal lackeys, and they hate Antonelli's lackeys who follow the Pope even more.

The notorious Antonelli did not dare to trust his safety to the French army.

"I'll forget it!" Antonelli squeezed a smile on his face, and said humbly: "I will wait for the news of the general's victory in Civitavecchia!"

After that, Antonelli turned and left.

General Reinho, who watched Antonelli leave, showed a look of disdain on his face.

After bidding farewell to Antonelli, General Renio rode his horse to the battlefield, and fought Edgar Ney at the forward position of France.

It was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and the afterglow of the setting sun swayed every light of it to its heart's content, just like the Roman Republic that is about to end now.

The French army that cleared the outer ring of the inner city of Rome is gradually approaching the east side of Rome, and they are trying to eat all of Garibaldi's troops in Rome.

"Commander!" Edgar Ney, who was holding a command knife and ordering the soldiers to charge, looked at General Renio who was on his horse, and hurried to General Renio and said anxiously: "Commander, the situation is urgent now, Garibaldi's The hunters [snipers] are secretly shooting our black guns, you better get off your horse!"

"Major Edgar!" General Renio, who was on the horse, didn't seem to hear Edgar Ney's dissuasion. In his opinion, if he dismounted himself, it meant that he was afraid of the Garibaldi Chase troops. This virtually dealt a blow to the French army: "Call Brigadier General Niel!"

"Yes!" Seeing that General Renio refused to dismount, Edgar Ney had no choice but to order several cavalry to surround General Renio to protect the general. Commodore El is coming.

"Binoculars!" Reinio on the horse stretched out his hand and said to the cavalry beside him.

The cavalry handed his binoculars to General Renio, who held the binoculars and saw the teams gathered around several abandoned villas in the distance.

This team of nearly a thousand people rushed towards the position they had abandoned under heavy artillery, and they wanted to regain their lost position.

The French commander who was in charge of guarding the position was also a fearless guy, and the two sides were fighting in the ruins that had been smashed.

"That's right!" Reinho nodded in satisfaction. The French soldiers have already used their actions to prove that they have always been a heroic force.

Not long after, Brigadier General Niel and Edgar Ney came in front of General Rainio, and they saluted General Rainio respectively.

"Brigadier General Niel, let your troops shrink the encirclement quickly, and compress the encirclement to the vicinity of the Church of La Lange and St. John's Gate!" General Renaud issued an order to Brigadier General Niel.

Brigadier General Niel showed a surprised expression. He learned from Edgar Ney that Garibaldi was about to break out from St. John's Gate, and he couldn't understand why General Regno followed Garibaldi's wish.

However, as General Renio's subordinate, he only needs to obey orders.

When Brigadier General Nière left, the French army a few villas away also won the victory after receiving reinforcements.

General Renio looked at Edgar Ney and asked, "Major Edgar, how did you know that Garibaldivan broke through St. John's Gate!"

"This..." Edgar Ney hesitated for a moment and said to General Renio, "General, follow me!"

General Renio and Edgar Ney, who were riding on horseback, came to a palace that had not yet been turned into ruins, where they saw a young missionary.

Edgar Ney introduced the identity of this too young monk to General Renio.

General Renio quickly and respectfully addressed the monk as "Your Highness".

This is Jerome Bonaparte's nephew Lucien Louis Napoleon.

"General, I learned this from my father! I hope it can help you!" Lucien Louis Napoleon said to General Regno.

"Is Prince Kono in the house?" General Renio asked cautiously.

"My father has no interest in politics, so..." Lucien Louis Napoleon showed an apologetic expression.

"Then we won't bother Prince Kono!"
