Chapter 343 Establishment of the Maintenance Command
The day after the appointment of the Chief of the General Staff of France, the Chiefs of the General Staff of France were approved by Jérôme. Bonaparte recommended, and the Marshal of the Second Reich, agreed by the Ministry of War, was "freshly baked."
In view of the outstanding contributions made by Saint-Arnaud and Regnio to the French army, the Chief of the French General Staff, Saint-Arnault. General Arnault, commander of Strasbourg, General Regnau, Marshal of the ranks.
As soon as the news came out, the entire French military circles were in an uproar. Part of the generals for the saint. Arno and Regnio objected to the fact that they could be awarded the title of marshal, and some generals even made a fuss about the award of marshal. Arnault was hastily given the post of marshal before he could make a mistake (referring to the merits of Marshal Biro), which was an insult to the title of marshal.
In the face of such unwarranted duties, the new Chief of the General Staff, Imperial Reserve Marshal St. Arno was annoyed.
If it weren't for the fact that the French army was separating the military from the government, and the chief of the general staff did not control the appointment and dismissal of the army.
Saint. Arno swore that he would let them know what the authority of the prefect was.
And the Tuileries Palace, which played a major role in this incident, did not say anything at this time, and he seemed to be letting the whole incident happen.
Saint. Arnault and Regnio canonized marshals seem to be about to die because of "unworthiness".
As time went on, the inaction of the Tuileries Palace emboldened a part of the anti-Bonapartist soldiers, and they even openly formed small groups in the army, ready to raise a banner of rebellion if necessary.
If it weren't for the report of the Special Investigation Section of the Guardhouse, Jérôme. Unbeknownst to Bonaparte, there was a potential opposition in the army that was trying to overthrow his rule.
"That's it! I know! Thank you! "Jérôme, who has read the internal intelligence of the army. Chief of the Special Operations Investigation Section in Bonaparte. Ney nodded in affirmation: "I didn't expect you to be able to sort out who is behind all the armies in such a short period of time, it's really not easy!" ”
"It's all my business!" Edgar. Ney was neither humble nor arrogant to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
"Yes, if you can keep it up, your achievements will definitely not be lower than your uncle!" Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at the glamorous Edgar in front of him. Ney thought to himself.
Is it the environment that changes people? Or do people change the environment?
Jérôme. Bonaparte remembered Edgar a few years ago. When Ney met him, he looked down on the man who had been able to establish himself in Paris by virtue of his uncle's fame.
That's right, Edgar. Ney's uncle was the original Marshal Ney, and he was one of the few who worked for Jérôme. Uncle Bonaparte, the one who died the Emperor Napoleon.
After the fall of the First Empire, Ney died for following Napoleon of the First Empire. Ney was the heir of Marshal Ney, who inherited the fame and prestige of Marshal Ney, and joined the Bonaparte faction and successively became Louis. Napoleon and Jérôme. Bonaparte service.
In refuge in Jérôme. In the early days of Bonaparte, Edgar. Ney was not affected by Jérôme. Bonaparte's attention in Jérôme. Bonaparte's eyes Edgar. Ney was nothing more than a sign of unity with Bonaparte.
An accident changed Edgar. Ney in Jérôme. Bonaparte was in the heart of Jérôme at that time when the attack on the Roman Republic was imminent. Bonaparte sent General Regnio to the Roman Republic, Edgar. Ney also asked to go with him in due course. Jérôme. Bonaparte, after much deliberation, decided to give Edgar. Ney showed the opportunity, and he agreed with a big wave of his hand to Edgar. Ney's request.
During the Roman siege of 1849, Edgar . Ney showed his talent as a military commander and emerged victorious.
After returning Edgar. After a long period of cold benching, Ney once again won Jérôme. Bonaparte's summons.
It was at that time that Jérôme. Bonaparte to Edgar. Ney asked if he would like to be the head of the Investigation Section of the Police Department of the Presidential Palace.
The so-called Investigation Section should be called a Division rather than a section.
This is because the number of people in the Investigation Section is almost catching up with the number of a division-level administrative bureaucrat who cannot be subordinate to the department.
Their main purpose was to monitor the French army for any betrayal, and to report it to Jérôme if there was any such thing. Bonaparte.
Over the next two years or so, the number of Special Investigation Sections continued to grow, gradually forming a number of people at the level of departments and bureaus.
The Special Investigation Section has also become more proficient in controlling and eavesdropping within the military, and all military regions except the Algerian Military Region are monitored by the Special Investigation Section.
[PS: Algiers has always been a place of exile for French political failures, and many politically defeated guys have been exiled here. Some of them joined the army, some lived in Algiers, and some were smuggled to Britain. It can be said that there is a traditional opposition, whether it is the Republic, Bourbon or Bonaparte.
There is also a part of opposition for the sake of opposition. 】
Looking at the SS leader in front of him, Jérôme. A relieved smile appeared at the corner of Bonaparte's mouth: "Ney, do you want to end this sneaky day!" ”
Edgar. Ney's expression showed a flash of struggle, and then he said in a calm tone, "I am willing to follow your orders!" ”
"I like people who follow orders the most!" For Edgar. Ney was a yes and no, Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed at Edgarney in a serious tone and said, "From now on, the Special Investigation Division will be separated from the police office and renamed the Aircraft Maintenance Command!" And you will become the first commander of the maintenance command, enjoying the rank of Brigadier General of France! The functions of the Maintenance Command remain the same! At the same time, you have to take on the role of adjutant! ”
Edgar. Ney's face beamed with joy, despite the fact that Edgar . Ney was only a brigadier general, but he knew very well that the authority of the Aircraft Command was no less than that of either the War Department and the General Staff.
The reason why it is the rank of brigadier general is probably to preserve the value of the rank a little.
Edgar. Ney was right, Jérôme. The purpose of Bonaparte's design, the supreme commander of the Aircraft Maintenance Command, was indeed to prevent the proliferation of generals.
In France, as long as you can be promoted to the rank of major general, it means that you are qualified to command a brigade or a corps.
This unreasonable rank system caused a lot of confusion, and at the same time, the establishment of the French army was also a big problem......
I'll talk about that later.
In short, for the sake of the overall situation, the supreme commander of the aircraft maintenance command must be a brigadier general.
"Don't worry! It won't be long before France will be reinvented! At that point, you'll be able to move up the next level! "Jérôme. Bonaparte to Edgar. Ney assured.
"Understood!" Edgar. Ney vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
Over the next few days, Jérôme. Bonaparte went alone to the Senate and told the Senate: "In view of the growing ideological problems in France, it is necessary to form a department capable of managing the crimes and ideological failures of the army!" ”
Such a move was opposed by some members of the military in the Senate, who said eloquently that the government should do its own thing and that the affairs of the army should be solved by the army itself.
Such a rebuttal undoubtedly made Jérôme. Bonaparte sensed that the army was likely to turn into the steel company that water could not penetrate and needles could not penetrate.
Since ancient times, the military has been a violent machine of the ruling class. If the army of the ruling class is kept under control, it is likely to become a raging beast.
It will engulf everyone it can, and then fight a vigorous and unrelenting war and die.
The General Staff and the Maintenance Command were the two tools he used to tie up this unreasonable beast, in order to accomplish this goal. He even used his executive power as emperor to pursue policies in the Legislative Yuan and the Second Chamber.
The Aircraft Maintenance Command was produced, Edgar. Ney becomes commander of the 1st Maintenance Command.
After figuring out the powers under the authority of the Aircraft Command, many of the voices of opposition disappeared without a trace overnight.
Even so, Jérôme. Bonaparte asked that he had no intention of letting those people go, and that keeping them would sooner or later be a time bomb.
In Jérôme. At Bonaparte's behest, the Aircraft Command went into action.
A man dressed in blue and carrying a sword and shield medal on his chest travels all over France to capture opposition generals.
After seeing these guys, the opposition generals who usually flaunted their might at the station, they once again remembered the Public Safety Committee, which had disappeared for more than half a century.
The fear that penetrated into the bone marrow made one by one the tiger generals turn into docile kittens in front of the members of the maintenance headquarters, eager to tell all the words they had to say to the members of the maintenance department.
There are even some generals who do not care about the image and will make a painful statement in front of the aircraft maintenance command.
In just one month, nearly 30 generals, most of them potential republican supporters, and a few of them Orleanists, were dismissed on the grounds of corruption, dereliction of duty, and too old.
After the dismissal of more than 30 generals in one go, the whole of France was completely left without doubt.
The army was left with only one way to sing the praises.
On May 31, the grand and grand canonization ceremony blew away the gloom that hung over the French military circles.
Commander Regino, who had just arrived from Strasbourg, and the Chief of the French General Staff, Saint-Saint. General Arno stood straight on a platform made of wood and draped in a red cloth blanket.
On the stage stood the generals who lived in Paris, and they were all invited to participate in this performance of the seal commander with little gold content.
Tens of thousands of soldiers, armed with rifles, watched what was happening in front of them.
It didn't take long for Jérôme. Bonaparte appeared, and behind him were two servants, each with a marshal's scepter in their hands.
