Chapter 270 12.2 Coup Plans

The proposal to amend the constitution was opposed by the overwhelming majority of "social democrats".

At this time, even the Bonapartist faction, which was inclined to amend the constitution through parliament, no longer believed in the Legislative Assembly.

Since the Legislative Assembly was unwilling to hand over the rule of France to the Bonapartists, it was not to blame them for taking it themselves.

Of course, Duke Breuy, a new member of the Élysée faction, had no idea what the Bonapartes were going to do.

In their opinion, Jerome . Bonaparte was still more than a year away from leaving office, and there was no need to rush into a coup d'état.

After the dissolution of the Legislative Assembly of the Palais des Bourbons, Valewski sent a letter to Jérôme. After Bonaparte reported on what had happened in the Legislative Assembly, Jérôme. Bonaparte once again brought together the core members of the Bonapartist faction.

With the exception of General Reinho, who had gone to Strasbourg to assume the post of commander, all the other personnel arrived at the Élysée Palace.

Looking at the core members of the Bonapartist faction in front of him, Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled and said, "You must all know it well! What we're going to do next! Since amending the Constitution can no longer achieve our goal, we have no choice but to resort to force! I plan to dissolve the Legislative Assembly on December 2nd! ”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was Jérôme. Bonaparte's words were discolored.

Eugène. Rue whispered to Jérôme. Bonaparte reminded: "Your Majesty, is the time too short! Why don't you relax the time limit a little? ”

"That's right! Your Majesty! Interior Minister Baros also suggested that some time limits be relaxed in order to be ready.

"Everyone!" Jérôme. Bonaparte raised his voice and said in a high-spirited tone to the core members of the Bonapartist faction present: "You think about the coup d'état too complicated. Most of the coups d'état in the past and present have been successful after a wave of uprising. Unexpected situations happen all the time, and we can never predict them completely! Now that we have complete control over the military forces in the metropolitan area of Paris, we only need to make reasonable use of the inherent advantages of Paris! Those generals would not dare to fight a war with us, and as long as we could control Paris, it would mean that all of France would be under our command! ”

The military coup is more than which of the two sides has a lower margin for error and a hint of luck, Jérôme. Bonaparte clearly remembered the December 12 coup d'état in the documentary "The Fifth Republic" launched by the universe country in his previous life, the whole coup d'état made everyone laugh, the government obviously had many opportunities to capture the head of state, and then disband the army, but it was missed again and again, the defense minister who once dared to launch a solo walk, but in that coup d'état was frightened, the coup did not use much troops, and it took Quan Doo-hwan to control all the troops in the capital area to complete the coup d'état.

Not to mention the African musician Cardazo, who staggered into the Libyan capital Tripoli with an army of less than 1,000 men, and finally completed the coup d'état.

In this land, there is nothing that cannot be done as long as you have enough ambition.

Jérôme. Bonaparte's impassioned words infected the new Minister of War, Saint-Saint. Arno, who had some hesitation in his heart, finally made up his mind: "Let's do it! Excellency! ”

With the statement of the Minister of War, the rest of the people were not far behind and said one after another: "Do it!" Your Excellency"

November 2, 1850, Jérôme. Bonaparte made an earth-shattering announcement to the outside world about the order to remove Prime Minister Opaure.

The reason is that Prime Minister Oppel was unable to complete President Jérôme. Bonaparte expected.

As soon as the news came out, the whole of Paris shook again, and the Parisian political circles did not know about Jérôme. What kind of medicine is sold in Bonaparta gourd?

However, Opple's ouster gave some of the new members of the Élysée faction an opportunity.

Especially like Odilon. Barrow is someone of prestige who is willing to cooperate with the president.

Odilon who wants to be prime minister again. Barrow brought in his younger brother Ferdinand, who was the attorney general. Barrow asked about Jérôme. The inside story of Bonaparte's ouster of Prime Minister Opple.

"I have heard that it seems to be because the Count of Opple has made an agreement with His Excellency the President from the beginning of his assumption of office...... Fernand. Barrow was stunned for a moment, and said to Odillon. Barrow said.

"What agreement?" Odilon. Barrow impatiently asked Fernand. Barrow.

Fernand. Barrow spread his hands to Odillon. Barrow said: "I don't know about this, it's nothing more than an exchange of interests!" ”

"By the way, have you made any big moves lately?" Odilon. Barrow then asked Fernand. Barrow.

As a veteran oppositionist, he keenly smelled something unusual in the air, similar to the atmosphere of February.

"I don't know!" Fernand. Barrow shrugged his shoulders at Odilon. "It's been a long time since I've been to a Bonapartist meeting!" Barrow said. ”

Odilon. Barrow glanced at Fernand. Barrow, he sighed at Fernand. Barrow said, "If it weren't for me......"

Valley/span "It's none of your business!" "Fernand. Barrow smiled at Odillon. Barrow was relieved: "As the Attorney General, I am here to maintain the strictness of the judiciary, and I often gather around the president to figure out what kind of system!" ”

From Fernand. Barrow didn't find out Jerrome. Bonaparte's next move of Odillon. Barrow could only wait patiently for Jérôme. Bonaparte's invitation.

At this time he still believed in Jérôme. Bonaparte would certainly have chosen one of them to be prime minister.

On November 3, in the eyes of all the members of the Party of Order and the Élysée Palace, Prime Minister Oppl ...... No, it should be Count Opple who has changed into a military uniform and stands straight in Jérôme. Years before Bonaparte.

Count Opple, who had just stepped down as Prime Minister for more than a day, was once again replaced by Jérôme. Bonaparte was appointed Governor of Algiers.

[PS: Due to the special circumstances of Algeria for the owner of France, the governor of Algeria is generally appointed by the king/president himself.] In order to show the importance attached to Algeria, during the Kingdom of Orleans, princes of the royal family of Orleans generally went to Africa to serve as governors. In times of war, a distinguished general served as governor-general. 】

An attendant, escorted by two guards, carried an aluminum tray to Jérôme. Bonaparte stopped in front of Opple and Jérôme. Bonaparte lifted the red cloth covering the tray and a Grand Cross (regimental class) carved with Napoleon's head appeared.

Jérôme. Bonaparte took the Grand Cross in his hand and put it on for Count Opple.

"Thank you, Count Opple, for all you have done for France! I hope that you will continue to serve France during your tenure as Governor of Algeria! "Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted Opple.

"Your Excellency President, I will definitely live up to the entrustment and run Algiers well!" Opple responded to Jérôme with a sonorous and forceful response. Bonaparte, and at the same time to Jérôme. Bonaparte returned the favor.

After the ceremony, everyone burst into warm applause.

After all the invited guests had dispersed, Jérôme. Bonaparte called the new governor of Algeria, Opaure, to his study.

"Your Excellency!" Opple humbly addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte shouted.

Jérôme sitting on the sofa. Bonaparte pressed his temple lightly and said to Opple: "I don't think I need to repeat the importance of Algiers to France!" ”

"I will do my best to keep Algiers safe!" Op immediately sent a message to Jérôme. Bonaparte showed his attitude.

"That's not enough!" Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed to the desk and said to Opple, "Monsieur Count, please help me get the map of Africa in the drawer!" ”

Count Opple hurried for Jérôme. Bonaparte fetched the map, Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed to Algiers and said to Opple: "You have to go deep into the interior to expand, I want the French sphere of influence to expand here!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte targeted the Niger region, which at this time still belonged to the Pall Empire, while Nigeria, which bordered Niger, had long since become a quasi-colony of the Kingdom of Britain.

"Your Excellency, if we continue to expand, it may lead to protests from the Kingdom of Britain!" Count Opple looked at Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed in the direction of Jérôme. Bonaparte said worriedly.

"That's why we're here!" Jérôme. Bonaparte paused in the north of Niger and explained: "Keep central Pall as a buffer between Britain and France, and include the tribes of northern Niger!" When you have done this, Count Opple, I will see a marshal appear above the French horizon! ”

"Marshal!" Opoull couldn't help but gasp, the marshal's temptation was really irresistible to him.

Even if the current marshal is far less valuable than during the First Empire.

"That's right! Marshal Opple! "Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to use the marshal as bait to seduce the Count of Opple.

"I will definitely do my best!" The Duke of Opple immediately sent a letter to Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted.

"Before you march into Niger, don't forget to enlist some tribesmen, they will help you a lot!" Jérôme. Bonaparte suddenly remembered the routine of the Belgian king when he obtained the Congo colony decades later: "You can send an expedition and then order the expedition to sign a treaty with the local chieftain." When the time comes, the French army will be able to march in the name of "protecting the human rights of the local tribes"! ”

"Yes!" Earl Opple responded.

On 5 November, when the Count of Opple left Paris, Jérôme. Bonaparte announced that he would establish a super-class cabinet under his direct command, which meant that the post of prime minister would probably not be created again anytime soon.

As soon as the news came out, many MPs from the Order Party, who were gearing up to become prime ministers, extinguished their caution.
