Chapter 553: Prepare for the Arch Fire
"Mr. Argu, if it were you, what would you choose?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Count Argou with a calm face.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I can't answer your answer!" Moments later, the Count of Argourne spoke to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied: "I cannot speculate on the mind of a great man with the mind of a mediocre man!" ”
"Great men?" Jérôme. A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of Bonaparte's mouth, and he, the so-called "great man", was only taking advantage of the "prophet" to observe the world with a mind that was almost two hundred years ahead of this era.
If you put aside the horizon of more than a hundred years, Jérôme. Bonaparte considered himself to be far inferior in talent and skill to his deceased cousin, and even inferior to the original owner of this body.
However, the most precious thing he has is more than a hundred years of knowledge and vision beyond this world.
In the past 100 years, our predecessors have experimented with all the possible failures under the conditions of the past productive forces, and written down all the solutions one by one (Keynesianism).
These solutions may not solve the problem forever, but they can alleviate it.
Jérôme lived in this era. Bonaparte was like a fly lying at the mouth of a well, and although frogs (e.g., Bismarck, Cavour, Metternich, Thiers) could kill him with a single tongue, he could see the sky that frogs of this age could not.
It was by virtue of his ability to see the "sky" clearly that Jérôme. Bonaparte was able to package himself as a strong-willed "great man".
"I'm not a great man at all, I'm just a gambler!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said in a flat tone, "I have put all I have on this war!" ”
"This is the Great Man!" Count of Argourne against Jérôme. Bonaparte responded: "Your Majesty the Emperor, isn't it the same!" ”
"That's it! Don't compliment me anymore! "Jérôme. Bonaparte laughed and shook his head.
"It's not a compliment! I'm just telling the truth! "Count Argou to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
"Then I'll be cheeky and accept your compliment"
……
Jérôme. Bonaparte and the Count of Argour chatted for a long time, until the appearance of the Governor made Jérôme a fool of him. Bonaparte's conversation with the Count of Argou came to an abrupt end.
"Your Majesty, sir! Dinner is ready! "The Governor addressed Jérôme respectfully. Bonaparte said a word to the Count of Argou.
"So fast!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said in surprise.
"Your Majesty, look out the window!" The Count of Argour pointed out the window to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
Jérôme. Bonaparte subconsciously glanced out the window, which was already pitch black.
"What time is it?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked the steward.
"Your Majesty, it's seven o'clock in the evening!" The steward hurriedly replied.
"Time flies!" Jérôme. Bonaparte couldn't help but sigh.
Subsequently, under the leadership of the Governor, Jérôme. Bonaparte went to the restaurant with the Count of Argour.
After a hearty meal, Count Argourne ordered his chief steward to take Jérôme . Bonaparte was sent back to the Tuileries Palace.
"No need!" Jérôme. Bonaparte waved his hand and rejected the Count of Argoo.
"Your Majesty, the night in Paris is not safe! It's dangerous to return alone, so let my butler send you back! "Count Argou to Jérôme. Bonaparte pleaded.
"Who said I was going to go back alone!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said as he took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time.
It's already 8:40, 20 minutes before the time he and Mocal have agreed upon.
"In 20 minutes, someone will come and pick me up!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Count Argoo.
"That's good!" Count Argu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't want to see any accident happen to the Emperor on the way back.
It was soon nine o'clock when the carriage from the Tuileries Palace appeared at the gate of the Count of Argou's mansion.
The carriage came down from the royal steward Mocal, and went straight into the residence of the Count of Argou. Bonaparte took home.
……
Early the next morning.
The news of the resignation of the president of the Banque de France, Count Argoo, appeared in the major newspapers in Paris, and the citizens of Paris, who were originally indifferent to the Banque de France, were surprised to find that the departing Comte de Argour had been in charge of the Banque de France for nearly 20 years, so they speculated about why the Comte de Argoo would leave the Banque de France.
Could it be that the Count of Argou resigned because of his age, as the newspapers said?
At the same time, affected by the change of president of the Banque de France, the Paris stock exchange fell by 2% as soon as it opened, and even fell to % in the medium term.
Fortunately, under the guidance of an invisible hand, the stock market on the Paris Stock Exchange closed down only %.
When Chancellor of the Exchequer Manie to Jérôme. After Bonaparte reported the closing data, Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and said, "Now it seems that the stock exchange can still accept the change of the Bank of France!" ”
"Yes!" Minister Manie to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
To be honest, the 2% drop at the start of today's market really made Manie pinch a cold sweat.
"That's it! You've done a great job! "Jérôme. Bonaparte replied to Mane.
"That's what I'm supposed to do!" Manie respectfully addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte said a word and left Jérôme. Bonaparte's study.
With Mane's departure, only Jérôme was left in the study. Bonaparte corrected the documents alone.
After a while, Mocal's voice appeared outside the door: "Your Majesty, General Niel asks to see!" ”
"Niel? What did he come to do? "Jérôme. Bonaparte was stunned for a few seconds, then responded to Mocal outside the door: "Let him in!" ”
"Yes!" Mocal hurriedly responded.
The door opened, and Neald appeared in the doorway.
And in his hand was holding a telegram: "Your Majesty! ”
"Hmmm! Have a seat! "Jérôme. Bonaparte held out his hand and invited Nière to sit down.
Sit in Jérôme. Opposite Bonaparte, Nière hurriedly placed the telegram in Jérôme. Bonaparte said: "Your Majesty, this is the whole process from the end of the Battle of Arma to the occupation of Sevastopol!" ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte took the telegram from Nielle's hand and carefully flipped through its contents.
Judging by the content of the telegram, the coalition forces occupied Sevastopol when the defense system of Sevastopol was not yet fully built, which can be said to have taken the defenders of Sevastopol by surprise.
However, even if the coalition forces used a "trick" method to occupy Sevastopol, it is enough to prove that the coalition forces – or the French army – have far surpassed the Russian Imperial Army in combat effectiveness.
And all this is inseparable from General Niel, opposite Jérôme Bonaparte, and General Pelisier, who is far away on the Crimean peninsula.
If it weren't for Nière's re-establishment of the garrison and the change of the conscription period, the French army's combat effectiveness would not have increased significantly.
It is important for the armed forces to have advanced weapons all the time, but the logistics system and the quality of the soldiers are even more important than advanced weapons.
At the end of the day, it's people who use weapons.
The same weapon will have different effects when used in different hands.
Just like the roasted steamed buns and geogongs of later generations, the roasted steamed buns have more advanced mechanics than the geoworkers (PS: Since the end of the Hundred Regiments War, the geotechnical army has never carried out large-scale group operations, and many troops are carrying out rear guerrilla warfare in regiments, so in the early days of the Liberation War, all parts were pressed and beaten by the five main forces of the steamed buns because of the lack of combat experience of the group army. At one time, the Shandong People's Liberation Army had only a few cities left), but in the end, it was the local workers who won.
In the logistics system and the quality of the soldiers, the geoworkers were able to defeat the baked steamed buns.
The French army, which had been reorganized by Nière, became even more nationalist (although their nationalism was passed by Jérôme. Bonaparte's modified castration).
The combat effectiveness is also higher than before.
Of course, General Pellisier's contribution is also indispensable.
If General Pelisier had not given the order to attack the fortress of Sevastopol, it is quite possible that Sevastopol would have developed in a historical direction.
The coalition forces had to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to break through it, and they endured many factors such as severe cold weather and logistical difficulties.
Now the coalition forces no longer have to endure the cold weather of history, and they can comfortably enjoy the convenience brought by Sevastopol.
And the Russian Empire is probably going to play the role of a coalition in history. Bonaparte had reason to believe that Nicholas I would do whatever it took to ask Menshikov to attack Sevastopol.
It's just that the Russian Imperial Army after the role reversal probably does not have the same logistics as the coalition forces, and the difficulties they face are more difficult than the coalition forces, I don't know how many times.
I'm afraid that this time the Russian Empire will face more casualties than in history!
Thinking of this, Jérôme. Bonaparte could not help gloating.
No way! I have to make a fire for Nicholas I, so that Nicholas I will not be able to get up and down, only then will he smash the Sevastopol fortress to the death.
Jérôme. Bonaparte's face outlined a sinister smile, a sinister plan in Jérôme. Bonaparte's mind was constantly taking shape.
Sit in Jérôme. The general Nière, opposite Bonaparte, saw Jérôme. After Bonaparte's expression, he also muttered in his heart: "Your Majesty, what are you thinking?" ”
