Chapter 233: Internal Conflict in the Army
"Brigadier General Normar, why are you here!"
Conrobel looked surprised, as if he had no idea of Brigadier Normar's arrival.
Call!
Brigadier General Normar breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and from Major General Conrobert's answer, Nomar heard another meaning, and Major General Conrobert did not want to tear his face with Shangarne.
Just imagine what general can endure the humiliation of being directly overthrown, not to mention that the president behind Commander Shangargne and Conrobel is still a political enemy.
Since Conrobel didn't choose to shake things out in the first place, it means that the military can still tolerate each other.
Conrobel's purpose in sounding the trumpet was probably to show him and Commander Shangarne how well they had control over the army.
Now Brigadier General Normar was indeed frightened by Conrobel's control of the army.
As soon as the trumpet sounded, the soldiers in the tents, attics, and homestays gathered and lined up in a phalanx under the leadership of the commander.
Perhaps to continue the deterrent power of Brigadier General Nomar and Commander Shang Gargne, the small turquoise (6-pounder) field gun was also pulled out for Conrobel.
Brigadier General Normar did not speak, he stood quietly in place and waited for the full build-up of troops.
The thousand-strong troops were soon assembled at Conrobel's base camp, and an officer walked up to Conrobel and saluted Conrobel and said, "Report to the deputy commander, the first battalion of the first regiment of the second brigade in Paris has been assembled!" ”
"Good!" Conrobell nodded with satisfaction, he turned his gaze to Brigadier General Normar, who was stunned in the audience, and asked again, "Brigadier General Normar, why did you come to my barracks!" ”
This time, instead of being mild, Conrobel turned to Brigadier General Normar in a stern tone.
For a moment, all the soldiers looked at Brigadier General Normar, and the hostile looks on him made Brigadier General Normar once again convinced that he could not usurp this army at all.
Fortunately, Nomar himself had no intention of seizing the army, which undoubtedly gave him more room to mediate.
"Deputy Commander, I have come to invite you and General Perrault to the commander's residence for a meeting on the orders of Commander Shangargne!" Brigadier General Normar could only wipe his ass as much as possible for the mistakes of his boss, Shangargne.
"Really?" Conrobel looked at Brigadier General Normar suspiciously.
"Really!" Brigadier General Normar swore to Conrobert: "Commander Shangargne has specially ordered me to find you!" ”
"Since it was Commander Shangarne's order, then I had to suspend the live firing!" Conrobell sighed and gave the order to the assembled army to disband.
Brigadier General Nomar did not understand that Conrobel's so-called live firing was, in the final analysis, a threat to Nomar's 1st Brigade in Paris.
Once the army rushes, not only bullets, but also artillery.
This is exactly what Brigadier General Normar does not want to see, and it is simply an impossible task for one brigade to confront two brigades.
"Commander, please come with me!" Brigadier General Normar made an inviting gesture and said to Conrobert.
"Alright then!" Conrobel walked slowly towards Brigadier General Normar.
"Deputy Commander, you can't go!" A figure stopped in front of Conrobel, who was the chief of staff of the Second Brigade and adjutant Conrobel.
On weekdays, when Conrobel is not in the barracks, the chief of staff is the person who is responsible for controlling the affairs of the barracks.
"Get out of the way! The commander invited me to discuss the military, what are you preventing! Conrobert's tone was displeased, and he harshly criticized his chief of staff.
"Deputy Commander, you can't go!" The chief of staff stiffened his neck and did not let Conrobert leave, and this "upright boy" directly exposed Normar's "lie": "I heard that Commander Shangargne asked Brigadier General Nomar to come over in order to take over the second brigade, and they want to overthrow you!" ”
Brigadier General Normar, who had never thought of tearing his face, changed his face in an instant, and before he could speak, Conrobel preemptively changed his face and criticized: "Where did you hear any bastard words!" Commander Shangargne is the supreme military governor of the Seine province, how could he be able to get out of the matter of imprisoning his subordinates! I'm right! ”
"That's right!" Brigadier General Normar could only smile at him, he didn't know that he was singing red and white to show him.
"Deputy Commander, you can't go!" The Chief of Staff still stopped in front of Conrobel and did not let Conrobel leave.
Conrobel finally became "annoyed": "Someone! Put him in a confinement cell, and don't open the door to him without my orders!" ”
Two soldiers lifted the chief of staff of the 2nd Brigade and left.
"Deputy Commander, you can't go! Deputy Commander! The chief of staff shouted as he put on a show.
Now even if the commander imprisons Conrobel, it will not help, his adjutant will "get out of trouble" at the first time, and then lead the second brigade to start a civil war.
Brigadier General Normar could only pray that Commander Shangargne would not be carried away by anger, otherwise the 2nd and 3rd Brigades would rebel even if Conrobert and Perrault were captured.
Commander Shangalgne's orders were no match for those of the War Department.
"Brigadier General Normar, you're smiling. Let's go! Conrobel said to Brigadier General Normar.
"Commander Conrobel (deputy), I don't know if you have time to accompany me to the Third Brigade, General Perrault was also summoned by the commander!" Brigadier General Normar replied with a smile on his face.
The two of them arrived together at the camp of the 3rd Brigade, the formation of the 3rd Brigade and the 2nd Brigade were even more terrifying, the 2,000-strong team under the command of General Perrault assembled in the wilderness around the camp, and several M1842 guns were placed in the rear of the group.
At this time, Brigadier General Normar was completely convinced that the commander would probably not be able to fight the president, and after Conrobel and Nomar came to Perrault, Nomar told Perrault what he had just said in the Conrobel barracks.
Perrault also showed a suspicious expression after hearing this, and after the two exchanged words, Perrault disbanded the team and went to the battle meeting place in Shangarne with Nomar.
However, the key members of the Third Brigade were also not taken away by him.
As the trio rode towards Shangargne in search of a meeting place, they met Ados, the lieutenant of Brigadier General Normar.
After the three of them smiled tacitly, Brigadier General Normar introduced his lieutenant to Conrobert and Perrault.
Conrobert and Perrault, who were on horseback, shook hands with Ados.
If it weren't for Ados coming over to "snitch", they might be in big trouble.
When the setting sun poured the last light and heat onto the earth, the four of them finally arrived at the Chahangarne War Council.
Three people except Ados entered, and the candles hanging from the ceiling gilt gold candelabra were lit, and the light reappeared in the room.
Conrobert and Perrault saw the gloomy face of Commander Shangargne at the same time, and the slightly tired expressions of the commanders of the National Guard.
"It's back!" Shangargne's tone was unusually flat, and it seemed difficult to equate him with those who had clamored a few hours earlier to remove military command of Conrobert and Perrault.
"Hmmm! Since there are too many trivial matters in the army, I didn't arrive in time, and I hope the commander will forgive me! Conrobel had a reason.
None of the people present did not understand where Conrobert and Perrault had gone, and now they could only put on clothes and pretend not to know.
The war room was shrouded in lies from now on.
"In that case, you two sit down!" Shangarne motioned for Conrobert and the others to sit in his place.
After Conrobert and Perrault were seated, Shangargne spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have asked you to come here today for no other purpose than to say one thing!" ”
So people's attention is attracted by the words of Shangargne.
Shangarne paused for a moment, then said: "In recent days, our army has been involved in politics too much, and this will affect the judgment of the army!" force, which led to a decline in the combat effectiveness of the army. We are soldiers, and soldiers are born to be loyal to the motherland! The army is a private property that belongs to the state, not to a certain person or a certain group! ”
As he spoke, Shangargne looked at Conrobert and Perrault, and his meaning was self-evident: "I don't want the army to be too close to certain politicians, our army should uphold a neutral attitude, so I hope that the army of the Seine department will try not to participate in too many gatherings of politicians, and train the army honestly, so that France will become a first-class strong army!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Conrobert and Perrault's expressions changed in shock, they didn't understand what Shangarne meant.
The army should not advise too much with politicians? Isn't that saying they shouldn't be in contact with the president? The army maintains a neutral attitude, this one is a liar! When did the army really remain neutral, or the army that remained neutral did not know that it was disbanded.
Shangarne is clearly targeting them!
"Commander, I don't know what it means to be too much involved with politicians on the right! By politicians, who do you mean? Conrobel immediately stood up and asked Commander Shangargne with a smile, his tone becoming more and more aggressive.
"I think I'm saying it very clearly, it's all politicians!" Shangarne emphasized, word for word.
"Then I would like to ask Commander Shangargne, is the same with the president?" Conrobert sets a language trap for Shangargne.
The president is a political figure, and he is also the highest military governor of the whole of France, whether this kind of person who has both executive and military powers is a political figure.
"It's up to you to judge!" Shangarne cleverly avoided the linguistic trap of Conrobert.
"Am I sure, then, that we can attend the president's banquet without having too much contact with the Parliament?" Conrobel said unforgivingly.
"General Conrobert......"
