The thought of Jerome Bonaparte "Marina d'Orsay" is a little tricky.
To be honest, he was not disgusted by the hard-line attitude towards the Ottoman Empire, subjecting it to French leadership.
This was a French strategic goal throughout the 19th century, not only to minimize the authority of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans, but also to prevent the Ottoman Empire from showing an avalanche of collapse.
Once the Ottoman Empire collapses, the Near East and the Middle East will become a complete hodgepodge of hodgepodge. This ancient and decaying empire can be said to be a breakwater.
But the "Dock d'Orsay" group always wanted to bind the Holy Land to the fate of France, which made Jerome Bonaparte very upset. The strategic goal of co-authoring France must serve the priests, right?
If this is the case, how will he, the emperor, carry out his work in the future.
The Holy Land is not only in France, but also the Russian Empire.
Sooner or later, due to geopolitical reconciliation, France and Russia cannot be offended to death like the Austrian Empire.
Jerome Bonaparte would never allow the question of religion to mess up French diplomacy.
Thinking of this, Jerome Bonaparte once again called Mocar.
"Call Commissioner Montalembert!" Jerome Bonaparte ordered Mocar.
Mercury hurried to the home of Montalembert after receiving orders from Jerome Bonaparte.
Fortunately, the rain didn't stop for a long time. The carriage traversed the Champs Elysees at a high speed. The low-lying rainwater splashed around under the pressure of the wheels to form small waves.
Since Montalembert's home is not far from the Tuileries Palace, and there are few pedestrians along the way, Mocar's speed is more than doubled.
Mocal, who originally took 8 minutes to arrive, arrived at Montalembert's house in less than 5 minutes, and stopped Montalembert who was about to go out.
When Montalembert heard Jerome Bonaparte's summons, his expression showed a slight surprise.
Jerome Bonaparte hadn't come to look for him for a long time.
"Let's go!" Montalembert replied to Mocar after tidying up the corners of his wrinkled lichen.
Mokar and Montalembert shared a carriage to the gate of the Tuileries Palace.
After Mocar stayed in place to settle the carriage, Montalembert came to Jérôme Bonaparte's office alone.
Montalembert, who entered the study, saw Jerome Bonaparte standing under the portrait of Napoleon with his head up and his hands behind his back. He hurriedly saluted Jerome Bonaparte and said, "Your Majesty!"
"The Count of Montalembert!" Jerome Bonaparte turned around and looked at Montalembert with a blank expression, without a trace of warmth in his words.
"I'm here!" Montalembert replied immediately.
"Can you tell me!" Jerome Bonaparte stared at Montalembert's eyes, lowered and elongated his voice: "What are you trying to do!"
"We..." Montalembert couldn't help swallowing, he certainly understood why Jerome Bonaparte was angry.
Although it is said that he does not belong to the same group as the guys at "Orsay Pier", the small group he is in still has some understanding of the actions of "Orsay Pier".
"Are you trying to kidnap an entire country to serve you?" Jerome Bonaparte snapped at Montalembert.
"No! We don't!" Montalembert wanted to explain, but he found that he didn't seem to have any way to braid himself.
"I know that you have a lobbying group in the government and in the Foreign Office! The reason I leave you alone is to maintain the harmony of the entire class. If you take advantage of my harmonious coexistence with you to kidnap the Empire, I'm afraid I Promise you, Paris will not agree! There was enough blood in Paris back then!" Jerome Bonaparte reprimanded Montalembert in a stern manner, then smiled meaningfully: "I don't want to Blood! If not necessary."
Jérôme Bonaparte's smile made Montalembert feel a chill deep down his spine.
The so-called not wanting to shed blood is probably not wanting the priest to be guillotined.
Of course, there is another explanation. If he really needs to be guillotined, he will also send them to Napoleon without hesitation.
"Your Majesty, "Dock d'Orsay" is a member of the extremist faction... and I..." Montalembert straightened his chest and said firmly to Jerome Bonaparte: "I advocate gentle treatment!"
Yes, it's a bit comical that Montalembert has suddenly become a moderate against the backdrop of a lobby group of an ultra-Catholic party such as the "Dock d'Orsay".
It's like if you are left enough, then everyone is right in your eyes.
"I see! Count Montalembert, please tell some people in the church not to overestimate your own strength! Otherwise, you won't even know how to die!" Jerome Bona Bala responded coldly to Montalembert.
"I understand!" Count Montalembert nodded in a chicken-pecking style.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Jérôme Bonaparte, who had basically ruled out the suspicion that Montalembert was the main pusher, instead showed a genial gesture.
After Montalembert left, Jerome Bonaparte brought De Ruiz and Valette over again.
After learning that De Ruiz was based on solidarity with public opinion (recently, extreme Catholicism has become more and more vocal about the Holy Land, and some republicans have also joined the national advocacy), Jerome Bonaparte turned to consider whether Valette should be made ambassador to Constantinople in accordance with "public opinion".
After all, since the establishment of the Second Empire, Jerome Bonaparte's prestige has always been in a state of being incomparable.
Advocating France's religious power in the Near East can indeed make him more loved by the French people, to be precise, by the clergy class. The current French grassroots are still in the hands of the huge clergy class, and it can be said that the clergy loves is loved by the people.
Therefore, for the clergy class, Jerome Bonaparte has always advocated the use of grace and power to win them over.
Previously, using Montalembert to send messages to the clergy to make them honest was a blessing, and it was a blessing to support Valette as the ambassador of Constantinople to safeguard the interests of the Latin Church.
After some explanations, De Luiz reassured Jerome Bonaparte that he would personally take care of the diplomacy of the Near East and prevent Valette from acting excessively. Jerome Bonaparte decided to change his mind.
However, he had to warn Valette first.
Under the order of Jerome Bonaparte, the full-time secretary Virnia sent De Ruiz out of the Tuileries Palace, and then informed Valette, who was waiting for a summons in the Tuileries Palace guest room, to enter the study.
After Valette was invited into the study, Jérôme Bonaparte had a detailed discussion with Valette on the Near East, during which he also emphasized that he would exert pressure on the Ottoman Empire to favor France as much as possible, but not to offend Russia too much. empire.
If war begins while he is ambassador, he will take full responsibility.
Seeing this, Valette could only agree to Jerome Bonaparte, and the flame of war that was stirring in his heart was also successfully extinguished by Jerome Bonaparte.
"Your Majesty, I wonder if I can send a fleet to Constantinople?" Valette cautiously probed Jerome Bonaparte: "Only cannonballs can make them completely obey our orders!"
"You can try, but it will take a while! As for the navy, I need to discuss it with Minister Dicko! You go back and wait for the notice!" Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand and issued an order to expel the passengers.
After Valette had left, Jérôme Bonaparte rode in a carriage to the office of Admiral Dicko.
Jerome Bonaparte, who had just stepped into the office, was surprised to find that, for some unknown time, a simple camp bed had been added to Dicko's office.
"Your Majesty!" Dicko quickly got up to meet Jerome Bonaparte.
"Are you going to make the minister's office your second home? Do you make the warship your second wife?" Jerome Bonaparte smiled and teased.
Dicko also showed a hearty laugh.
After the joke was over, Jerome Bonaparte continued to Minister Dicko: "Come with me, I have a gift for you Admiralty!"
Under Dicko's suspicious gaze, Jerome Bonaparte took him away from the Admiralty and came to a building not far from the Admiralty that had not yet been painted.
"This is..." Dicko looked at the building in front of him suspiciously.
"Go in!" Jerome Bonaparte threw the keys to Dicko.
Dicko took the key and opened the door of the building. What looked like a rough house on the outside turned out to be a strange place inside. This is a leisure club that has been carefully decorated and laid out. The candles on the ceiling chandeliers and the gold drapery hanging on the windows all show the strong financial resources behind it. The library area, lounge area, restaurant and entertainment area, etc. 19th century products are readily available.
"From today, this is your Admiralty!" Jerome Bonaparte explained to Dicko.
"Ah!" Dick opened his mouth and looked at everything in front of him in surprise.
"Accurately speaking, not only your departments have them!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Dicko, while he came to the pool table and asked, "Would you like to have a game?"
"I am very honoured!" Dicko responded to Jerome Bonaparte.
Jerome Bonaparte threw one of the two billiard cues to Dicko, who took it and stroked it.
The white ball made of ivory was placed in the designated position by Jerome Bonaparte, and then he used the strength and skill of his left and right hands to push the white ball out fiercely.
The small white ball smashed into the piles of other small **** like an arrow from the string, and the small piles of small **** arranged in a triangle were scattered in an instant.
A few **** were transferred into the net with the help of strong inertial force, and then Jerome Bonaparte hit the **** of other colors with the white ball again. The **** entered the net hole under the combined effect of skill and force. among.
"How is the situation with the Navy? When will your new warship be completed?" Jerome Bonaparte said to Dicko while aiming at the ball.
"The construction of the steam gunship has started and is about to be completed, and it is expected to be completed next month! There are still some problems with the ironclad battleship, and we are expected to make a breakthrough by the end of this year!" Dicko reported to Jerome Bonaparte on the current progress of the navy.
"Okay!" Jerome Bonaparte slowly raised his head~www.novelhall.com~ with a smile on his face: "You are doing very well!"
"This is what we should do!" Dicko smiled modestly: "Good shot!"
Another billiard ball was hit by Jerome Bonaparte's white ball and rolled into the hole. Jerome Bonaparte then asked: "Where is the Pacific Ocean? Is there any new news? Hurry up. The year should be here too!"
"No news yet! However, I think if there are no problems along the way, it should be here!" Dicko responded to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Have the logistical problems of the Near East been resolved?" Jerome Bonaparte raised his cue to observe the position of the balls.
"In the event of a war, the Navy can fully support the logistics of 150,000 people in the Balkans!" Dicko responded confidently.
"Very good! You really did not disappoint me!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "There is one more thing, the new ambassador to Constantinople is about to leave, I hope The Navy can **** him to Constantinople with warships!"
