Make France Great Again

Chapter 209 Appointment and Removal of Officials

On the fourth day after the military parade, major mainstream newspapers in Paris, under the instruction of Jérôme Bonaparte, rushed to report on the Paris military parade and the incident in which the Minister of Foreign Affairs angrily rebuked the Russian Imperial Minister.

Many newspapers are adhering to the spirit of bragging to death as long as they can't afford to brag. From the French army being the best in Europe to the Gauls being the most hard-working people in the world, some even called the Gauls "herbivores". nationality".

The article emphasizes that “the Gauls have been the best nation on the European continent since ancient times. Our culture has existed since the early days of the Roman Republic. During these thousands of years, our Gallic nation has become the same as the people on this land. Countless nations have fought, and without exception they have all been defeated by us and become part of us...God created the Gallic nation just to allow the Gallic people to lead Europe to prosperity...We are the only successors to the Roman Empire!"

At the first glance of reading the article, Jérôme Bonaparte felt the strong Gallic nationalism that filled the lines of the article.

Even though the author of the article was "written by order," Jérôme Bonaparte, who grew up in the era of globalization, still couldn't stand this kind of national inventor.

What is called Gallic culture has actually existed since the Roman Republic. At that time, the so-called Gallic nation was still in the mountains and forests. Nationalism created after the Great Revolution can't be said to be "since ancient times."

Jerome Bonaparte felt uncomfortable, but he had to admit that this kind of fanatical nationalist article was still very popular in the 19th century.

Not to mention ordinary French people, even literary giants like Victor Hugo, when advocating the United States of Europe, often emphasized that the United States of Europe should be led by France, because France's cultural heritage is stronger than that of other countries.

In an era of nationalistic fervor, in addition to travelers like Jérôme Bonaparte who know history well, and people like Dr. Karl Marx who see through the essence, most scientists and writers will inevitably be influenced by nationalism. Fanaticism coerces them into advocating for them.

The topic went off topic. After Jérôme Bonaparte read the entire article, he felt a strong discomfort all over his body. He somewhat doubted whether the dose of chicken blood he had given was a little too much.

When he glanced at the upper right corner of the newspaper, the fonts of the four printed pages of "Daily Pravda" came into view.

The corner of Jerome Bonaparte's mouth twitched slightly, and he muttered in a low voice: "Okay! Now it becomes the truth!"

Later, Jérôme Bonaparte took out a cardboard-covered notebook wrapped in cowhide, held the quill on the pen holder, dipped it in ink and wrote: "Daily Pravda, bullshit!"

Then he put down the quill, glanced at the slightly scrawled notes, showed a wicked smile, closed the notebook and put it in the drawer.

The next few newspapers all advocated nationalist fervor without exception, and the most fanatical one was the Observer.

The Observer first expressed its views on the confrontation between the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of the Russian Empire on diplomatic occasions from a "pertinent" position. It believed that the Russian Empire and the French Republic were both important countries on the European continent, and the two countries could only cooperate with each other. Only then could the whole of Europe be in a state of peace, and then "protest" was expressed against the behavior of the Russian Imperial Minister who humiliated France in public.

The article claims that "Every French person should have enough patriotic enthusiasm, and they should stand up when their country is humiliated by foreign countries. Here we would like to commend Minister De Luys for his courage to refute the behavior of the Russian Imperial Minister. If If the Russian Empire and the French Republic severed ties because of this issue, all responsibility lies with the Russian Empire!"

It is difficult for Jérôme Bonaparte not to think of the same xxx website in his previous life. Could it be that changing the name can have such a great effect?

"Is there such a resemblance?" Jérôme Bonaparte muttered softly.

After reading two articles, Jérôme Bonaparte felt that his blood pressure was a little high.

In order to prevent his health from being affected, Jerome Bonaparte decided to call his new "friend" Eugénie de Montino to go hunting in the Bouigny Forest on the outskirts of Paris.

Yes, this Eugenie de Montino was the empress of the French Empire in the original history. Jerome Bonaparte met Eugenie at a party a month ago, at Mérimée. Under the introduction of a famous pimp literary man, Jérôme Bonaparte got to know this beautiful rose and invited her to spend time with her.

Jérôme Bonaparte and Eugenie became friends after that ball, and Mérimée also successfully became a member of the Bonaparte Group's pen staff because of his success as a pimp.

Thinking of Eugenie's irritating body and charming eyes, an inexplicable fire ignited in Jérôme Bonaparte's heart. He got up and left his seat and quickly left the study. He saw Pei in the corridor. Sydney.

At this time, Pesini was holding a document in his hand and rushing towards the direction of Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Your Majesty!" Pesini quickly slowed down his pace and saluted Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Pessini, what is that document in your hand?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Pessini, pointing to the document in Pessini's hand.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? This is the list of promotion personnel drawn up by the Ministry of War. The Minister of War specially sent it for you to take a look at!" Pesini responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

Only then did Jérôme Bonaparte remember the issue of promotion in the army. He patted his forehead and whispered in Chinese: "Look at my memory!"

"Your Majesty???" Pesini, who knew nothing about Chinese, didn't understand what Jérôme Bonaparte was talking about. From Jérôme Bonaparte's expression, Pesini guessed that the president seemed to be talking about this document?

"Nothing?" Jérôme Bonaparte responded in French with a smile. He stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it here! Let me see who needs promotion this time?"

"Yes!" Pesini hurriedly handed over the personnel who were to be promoted by the Ministry of War to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte turned around and returned to the study while looking through the files of promoted personnel.

"Let's see... there are quite a lot of people promoted this time!" Jérôme Bonaparte sighed as he looked at the densely packed names on the list.

"Your Majesty, this list was drawn up by Brigadier General Rendell and approved by Minister Renault. They are definitely trustworthy generals!" Pesini explained in a low voice.

"I know! I believe Minister Regno and the others!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and said to Pesini.

The promoted personnel include the War Department, the army and the Secretariat Office. Some army commanders were transferred to the Southern Front in the name of promotion, and some Secretariat staff were transferred to the army in the suburbs of Paris.

All in all, the War Department was methodically weakening Commander Changarnier's ability to control the army.

"Huh?" Jérôme Bonaparte pointed to the "Resident at the Ministry of Railways" column in the transfer column on the document and asked Pesini: "The army has reached contact with the Ministry of Railways so quickly? The two sides have been working together. At that time, nothing went wrong?"

"That's right, it's all thanks to General Saint-Arnault!" Pesini explained to Jérôme Bonaparte the whole story, including how Saint-Arnault forced the Secretariat staff to go to the Ministry of Railways, and how he suppressed the engineering troops to accept Military personnel stationed there.

"Sure enough, only strong methods can deter those guys!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and said.

After that, he took out a pen and signed his name on the last page of the promotion list.

When he closed the document and handed it to Pesini, Jérôme Bonaparte said: "Persini, are you interested in becoming the Minister of Public Works!"

There was a look of astonishment on Pesini's face. He didn't understand why Jerome Bonaparte suddenly said this.

The Ministry of Public Works has been vacant since Morny became the Minister of Railways. It is reasonable for Jérôme Bonaparte to propose that Pesini be the Minister.

"I think it's a bit humiliating to stay with me with your talents. The position of Minister of Public Works is more suitable for you!" Jerome Bonaparte encouraged Pesini to take over the position of Minister of Public Works.

Jérôme Bonaparte's words were like a bolt from the blue in Pescinny's ears. On the surface, the status of the Minister of Public Works was indeed much higher than that of his secretary general, but some things could not just be seen. On the surface, the power of the chief secretary comes from the president, and the person holding this position is often the person closest to the president.

As an office dependent on the president, its power changes with the changes in the president's power. A strong president will undoubtedly put the power of the secretary's office above all cabinet departments. Just as now, Pesini, the head of the secretary's office, can use the name of the president to issue orders to major departments.

The Minister of Public Works is just the leader of a department, and the scope of his leadership and jurisdiction is only one-third of his own land.

This is equivalent to Jerome Bonaparte diluting Pesini's power in disguise. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com

What exactly does President mean?

Pesini couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart. He didn't understand in what way he had offended the president, so that the president needed to transfer him to the Department of Public Works.

"Your Majesty, you know... Before you said that I would be the Minister of Public Works, I had no experience at all, and I was very afraid that I would cause a big mess... However, if it is your order, then I will faithfully execute it! "Pessini responded to Jérôme Bonaparte with fear.

"Pessini, I know your abilities!" Jérôme Bonaparte patted Pesigny on the shoulder and comforted him: "I know you have the ability to serve as the head of a department! In this matter, you can consider Come on! What I need is a person who can take charge of his/her own duties, not a secretary who just follows around!"
