Make France Great Again

In the end, Alphonse Rothschild decided to tell the Austrian Rothschild branch that the French Empire was going to take action against the Russian Empire through the secret channels of the Rothschild family. He believed that the Austrian branch would definitely tell the Austrian government.

Whether the Austrian government is willing to maintain peace with the French Empire or whether it is willing to fight France for the Russian Empire is not a matter that Alphonse Rothschild cares about.

On June 1, when people in Paris were discussing the design of low-cost public rental housing in full swing, no one noticed that the Ministry of Railways was quietly stopping the exchange of long- and short-term bonds. Railway bonds on the Paris Stock Exchange market were Under the joint efforts of major banks, the situation has generally shown stable and positive development.

However, after the hasty cessation of redemption, railway bonds still experienced a slight decline, and a small-scale panic ensued.

However, thanks to the mouthpieces of major banks, the railway bond argument is only a technical adjustment.

Some people who did not believe in evil wanted to exchange bonds, and the bank agreed to their exchange after repeated inquiries.

With the cooperation of bankers and functional departments, railway bonds finally passed the most thrilling stage in the early stage.

Baros, who had passed the first threshold of the railway bond crisis, had not had time to take a breath. Chief of General Staff Saint Arnaud came to Baros with members of the Railway Department under the General Staff.

Baros could only rest temporarily and receive Saint Arnaud and others.

As soon as he took his seat, Saint-Arnault said nothing nonsense. He pointed directly at the members of the railway department and said: "I leave these people to you! Some of them are inexperienced. Please bear with me!"

"Natural! Natural!" Of course Baros understood that everything was for war.

Since His Majesty has already agreed with Saint Arnaud, what reason does he have to stop it.

All we can do is cooperate as much as possible!

Later, Marshal Saint-Arnault said sternly to several officers at the Railway Department: "You all came from the Ministry of Railways (Saint-Arnault originally asked them to intern at the Ministry of Railways), and then went to the southern part of the railway line. Surveys were conducted (it was Canning who met them on the train).

I believe in your strength, and you must repay me with practical actions! I don't care what the reason is, you must guarantee to me that the railway's material transportation and troop transportation must be completed on time! Got it! "

"I understand!" the young officer from the Railway Department replied sonorously.

"Very good! As long as you can successfully complete the tasks assigned by me, I guarantee that you will be promoted smoothly!" Marshal Saint-Arnaud did not pay any attention to Baros who was standing aside, and he said to himself.

A smile broke out on the young officer's face again. Once upon a time, the French army's logistics members were a bunch of stepmothers. When fighting on the front line, they worked hard to prepare supplies. After the rewards were given based on their merits, they became negligible. small transparency.

Under such circumstances, not many people are willing to take on the responsibility of the logistics department. Officers subconsciously believe that logistics is a place for idlers.

Ever since the emperor established the empire, he has been paying close attention to logistics issues. After Marshal Saint-Arnault established the General Staff, he even included the promotion mechanism of the logistics department into the promotion regulations.

This also means that the logistics department has got rid of the era of bitter and transparent people and has officially become a part of the army.

The ranks of officers can also be moved up.

Compared to the excited officer, Baroche's face showed a hint of uneasiness. Not to mention that Saint Arnaud taught his men a lesson on Baroche's territory, just what Saint Arnaud said just now, Baros felt that he seemed to be encouraging these officers to seize power from their Railway Ministry.

If it were not for an extraordinary period, Baros would never give up.

Now he could only give in to the war. As for some of Saint Arnaud's words, Baros pretended that he had not heard anything.

Subsequently, Saint-Arnaud officially handed over these railway officers to Baros, and then left the Ministry of Railways alone and went to the Ministry of War to formulate a combat plan.

Baros looked at the group of railway officers in front of him expressionlessly and said firmly: "Since Marshal Saint-Arnaud has handed you over to me, I will demand strict measures from you!"

"Understood!" the officers responded in unison.

"follow me!"

Subsequently, Baros asked the military officer to follow him to the conference hall. When he met the State Secretary of the Ministry of Railways in the corridor, Baros immediately issued an order to the State Secretary, requiring him to transfer all department and bureau-level officials from the five bureaus under the Ministry of Railways. All were called to the office.

The Secretary of State who received the order nodded to convey the order, and Baros and the military officer came to the conference hall first.

As time passed, all the cadres from the five major bureaus and bureaus came to the conference hall.

There was a surprised expression on everyone's face. They didn't understand what the officer standing behind Baros was going to do.

Gu/span After all the department-level officials had arrived, Baros said, "You must all be confused as to why the soldiers appear here!"

No one present spoke. He was looking forward to hearing the reason from Baros.

"Let me tell you!" Baros said with a serious tone and solemn expression: "A war is coming!"

The faces of the members of the Eastern Railway Bureau and the Southern Railway Bureau instantly turned pale. Due to the secrecy of the war and the General Staff, not many people except the ministerial level and some specific personnel knew that the emperor had already planned to launch a war.

When Baros vomited "war", in their opinion, the war was most likely to be in the Strasbourg area or the Alps, which meant that the Eastern and Southern Railway Bureaus may be in danger.

Especially the Southern Railway Bureau, they already know that large quantities of materials are transported in Lyon and Marseille, which means that the war is likely to start from the Apennine Peninsula.

"Don't worry, we are not at war with Germany!" Baros's next words pulled the officials from these two regions from hell to heaven: "The imperial army is about to conduct an expedition, so we must coordinate with the army and plan well. Train operations.

The transportation of the army must be satisfied as much as possible! "

The director of the Southern Railway Bureau glanced at Baros and said tactfully: "Your Excellency, Minister, in this case! Our railway operation may face some difficulties! It may not be possible to take care of both with the existing transportation capacity!"

"I don't care about any transport capacity issues! You must guarantee to me that the Ministry of Railways will not only protect the army, but also operate normal railway trains every day!" Baros of the Ministry of Railways showed an inhumane attitude. , he knew that the inability to take both measures into account was just a retreat for himself. He once calculated the railway's transportation capacity and finally concluded that the transportation capacity was more than enough.

So now he wants to block this escape route and let them move forward.

"The timetable is accurate to every minute, and the arrival time error can be within ten minutes... We will make every effort to ensure the normal operation of the railway!" Baros gave the death order to the officials present, and then shouted loudly: "have you understood?"

"Understood!" the officials present responded confidently.

"These officers will be stationed here and be responsible for coordinating the transportation of the army? There will also be a certain number of soldiers and officers assigned to the railways along the line as before, responsible for coordinating the transportation of materials and maintaining the smooth operation of transportation!" Baros pointed. said the officer behind him.

The railway officer immediately straightened up, with a slightly smug expression on his face.

The members of the Ministry of Railways sitting on the chairs had already vaguely guessed that martial law might be implemented next.

No one likes military control, especially when they think that their rights may be restricted by military personnel, they feel even more uncomfortable.

However, the discomfort was due to their obedience to authority, so they did not have the courage to refute Baros's words.

"Okay! From today on, you are colleagues!" After seeing the subordinate members of the Ministry of Railways acquiescing, Baros struck while the iron was hot to get acquainted with each other.

The Ministry of Railways and the General Staff, a pair of originally unrelated departments, reluctantly cooperated under the auspices of Jérôme Bonaparte.

However, this time the cooperation was not on an equal footing, and the General Staff was above the Ministry of Railways.

This kind of cooperation will naturally be complained by the Ministry of Railways, but who cares about those rumors now, everything must give way to war.

In the early morning of June 5th, a steam ship sailing from the distant New World in the West cut through the sea fog floating in the English Channel. With an indomitable posture, it fearlessly broke through the comfort of the waves and approached the port of Calais.

As the clipper gradually approaches the port of Calais, you can clearly see the eagle flag hanging on the sail of the clipper.

On the Eagle Flag Clipper, a young man with a face somewhat similar to Prince Montfort was slowly emerging from the cabin. Judging from his immature face, he was probably less than 20 years old.

At this time, he was wearing a military uniform from the First Empire period that his grandmother specially asked him to wear. He was standing on the bow looking at the French continent in the distance.

Yes, he was Jerome Patterson, the son of Jerome Bonaparte's half-brother. When he returned to France from the New World, he couldn't wait to kiss the land he had never set foot on.

While Jerome Patterson was looking at the French continent, Commodore Fleury, who was waiting at the port of Calais, also saw the clipper flying the eagle flag, and a smile appeared on his face.

After waiting for such a long time, this "illegitimate child" was finally here.

If it hadn't been for His Majesty's special order, Fleury wouldn't have been willing to come to Calais and wait.

After all, Jerome Patterson's identity is really embarrassing. Whether he can be transformed from an illegitimate son to an orthodox successor depends on the emperor's attitude.
