Niel at the Jérôme pick-up. After Bonaparte's order, he quickly returned to the General Staff and gave the order to the Alpine Front (also called the Italian Front) in the far Lyon region by telegram set up by the General Staff.

After receiving the telegram from the Chief of the General Staff of Niel, General Trochu, the commander of the Alpine Front, excitedly raised the telegram in his hand and said loudly to the chief of staff, division commanders, and staff officers of the Front, "The Chief of the General Staff orders our troops to march to the Kingdom of Sardinia!" ”

When all the people in the headquarters heard Trochu's order, they cheered loudly, and it seemed to them that the French army entering the Kingdom of Sardinia must be fighting a great battle with the Austrian Empire, and they could be added to the rank of knight again.

At this moment, they didn't know that this time they marched into the Kingdom of Sardinia for the purpose of fighting at all, and their idea of becoming an official and a knighthood had ceased to exist from the beginning.

Immediately afterward, under the orders of Trochu, the commander of the Alpine Front, the troops of the Alpine Front, of nearly 60,000 men, began to assemble.

The divisions, brigades, and regimental headquarters around Lyon were completely assembled in only a day or so.

Just as Trochu was about to give the order to march the whole army on Savoyin, Trochu's adjutant entered the barracks and reported to Trochu a startling news.

"What did you say!" Trochu didn't seem to hear the adjutant report clearly, and he asked the adjutant with wide eyes.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Emperor, Your Excellency the Emperor and the Chief of the General Staff are now near the military railway platform!" The adjutant spoke to Trochu again.

"Why don't you invite them all!" Trochu stamped his foot and reproached the lieutenant beside him, then got up in a hurry and prepared to rush towards the military platform.

"Commander, Your Majesty and Your Excellency the Chief of the General Staff have to wander around the military railway station, and they can't be persuaded no matter how much they persuade them!" The adjutant said to Trochu with a slight grievance.

Only then did Trochu realize that there was a warehouse of the Italian Front near the military railway station, and His Majesty and the Chief of the General Staff would not have personally gone to the warehouse to inspect it!

Thinking of this, Trochu hurriedly asked his adjutant, "Are Your Majesty and the Chief of the General Staff near the warehouse!" ”

The adjutant shook his head at first, and then after thinking for a moment, he nodded and replied to Trox, "That's right, Your Majesty and His Excellency the Chief of the General Staff are rushing in the direction of where the warehouse is located!" ”

"Looks like they're going to inspect the warehouse!" Trochu breathed a sigh of relief and muttered in a low voice.

Fortunately, when he was serving as the Italian Front, he did not guard and steal.

Otherwise, this wave will definitely be reprimanded.

If it's not good, there is still the possibility of being dismissed!

"Come with me and greet me!" Trochu said a word to the adjutant beside him, and then walked briskly towards the outside of the barracks.

The adjutant followed in Trochu's footsteps out of the barracks, and the two rode towards the military warehouse.

When Adjutant Troxrich arrived near the military warehouse, there was already a group of soldiers guarding near the military warehouse, and Trochu and the adjutant quickly dismounted and slowly approached in the direction where the soldiers were.

As Adjutant Trosch approached the soldier, the soldier asked in a loud voice, "Who!" ”

Only then did Trosch and his adjutant realize that the group of soldiers in front of them were not soldiers of the Italian Front, but soldiers under the Guards Division.

Trochu hurriedly responded to the soldiers, "I'm Trochu, the commander of the Italian Front, and this is my adjutant!" ”

The soldier glanced at the epaulettes of Trochu and the adjutant beside him, and he quickly saluted Trochu, "Commander Trochu!" ”

"I can go over!" Trochu asked the soldier.

The soldiers quickly made way for Trochu, and Trochu and his lieutenant were able to move on.

Soon after, Trochu and his lieutenant arrived at the warehouse, and they saw a black patch of the warehouse, including Jérôme. Bonaparte, Niel, and staff officers, adjutants of the General Staff...... At this time Jerome. Bonaparte and the others were walking towards the outside of the warehouse, while Trochu and the others were rushing towards the inside of the warehouse, and the two groups happened to meet near the warehouse gate.

See Jérôme. For a moment when Bonaparte, Trochu's mind was as if it had suddenly short-circuited, and he could not say a word for a long time.

It wasn't until the adjutant next to him carefully lifted Trochu with his foot that Trochu reacted to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded, "Your Majesty! ”

"Trogchu, what's wrong with you!" Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled and said to Trochu, "I'm going to go and look for you!"

I didn't expect you to come so soon! ”

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being a little late!" Trochu vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte bowed and apologized.

"It's none of your business!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and replied to Trochu, "I am to blame for this, I did not inform you before I left!"

It's great that you were able to get here so quickly! ”

Trochu bowed his head and was silent, Jérôme. Bonaparte praised, "The military depots of your Italian Front, I have just made a cursory inspection, are very good!"

The things in the warehouse are not secondary, and they are worth learning from other fronts! ”

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!" Trochu humbly addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

Before Trochu could be happy for a moment, Jérôme. Bonaparte then said, "However, the whole warehouse is really badly sorted!

It would be even better if you could break down the genres! ”

"Your Majesty, I'll arrange it right away!" Trochu hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"You don't have to arrange it now!" Jérôme. Bonaparte raised his hand to stop, "Now you have more important things to do, and the matter of warehouse sorting can be put aside appropriately!" ”

"Yes!" Trochu nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

After explaining the details, Jérôme. Bonaparte gave Trochu the order to go to the headquarters of the Italian Front.

Under the leadership of Trochu, Jérôme. The Bonaparte arrived at the headquarters of the Italian (Alpine) Front.

Subsequently, Trochu asked Jérôme. Bonaparte introduced everyone in the command.

Jérôme. Bonaparte shook hands with each member of the Front in turn, politely asking them their names, their families, and if they needed any help.

All about Jérôme. Bonaparte's unanimous reply was that they did not need help, as long as they could serve His Majesty the Emperor.

Jérôme. Bonaparte also smiled and encouraged them.

After a brief acquaintance with all the middle and high-ranking generals of the Italian Front, Jérôme. Bonaparte turned to Trochu again and asked, "When will the troops leave?" ”

"Your Majesty, the troops can leave at any time!" Trochu puffed up his chest to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

"Let's go now!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said in a surging voice.

Trochu was stunned at first, and then at Jérôme. Bonaparte replied in a sonorous voice, "Yes! ”

The troops quickly set out in full gear, and after more than eight hours of marching, the vanguard reached near the border between France and the Kingdom of Sardinia.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun swept the last rays of sunlight into the sky, dyeing the originally blue sky all red, and under this fiery red, the troops stationed on the Sardinian border saw a patch of black dots in the distance rushing towards them like locusts.

The border soldier hurriedly took out his monoculars and looked into the distance, through which he saw the vanguard of the French Empire approaching the defense area where they were stationed.

Seeing this, the border soldiers hurriedly put down the monoculars in their hands, and then reported the news to the major stationed in the border area, as the supreme commander of the Sardinian border, the major was of course aware of the purpose of the French Empire.

So, the major hurriedly put his clothes on his body neatly and said to the soldiers beside him, "Quick! Go get the fence out of the way! ”

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, somewhat at a loss.

"The French army is here to help us resist the Austrian Empire!" The officer of the Kingdom of Sardinia replied to the soldier.

"Understood!" The soldiers hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted, then walked out of the major's room and re-arrived at the border, "Remove all the barricades for me!" ”

The surrounding soldiers also showed their puzzled goals, and the soldiers hurriedly replied, "The French army is here to help us resist Austria!" ”

As Jérôme listened, Jérôme hurriedly began to clear the barricades, which were soon cleared.

After a while, the major also arrived with a military band, and he hurriedly gave the order to the soldiers around him, "All of them, stand and welcome!" ”

The soldiers hurriedly lined up on both sides of the road, and when the French army arrived, the officers hurriedly ordered the military band to start playing.

Under the tune of the Second Empire's "national anthem" (in fact, the Second Empire did not have an official national anthem), the French vanguard quickly surrounded them, "Monsieur Major, please lay down your arms!" ”

The major looked at the "friendly army" in front of him with a bewildered expression, and he asked in a panic, "Is there a mistake?" You're here to help us! ”

The French vanguard shook their heads and replied to the major, "We are not mistaken, the order we received is indeed to disarm all your troops, so give up resistance!" ”

In this way, the major in the border area was disarmed.

All the officers in the border area were then disarmed and imprisoned by the French army.

At about 8 o'clock in the evening, the vanguard arrived at Chambéry, the high-ranking official of the province of Savoyin, Camillo. Unaware of the fact that the border troops had been captured, Varne also led his provincial government officials and members of the National Guard in Chambéry to meet them.

This time, instead of taking them prisoner, the French army told Camilo . Varnet, the Emperor of France is coming soon.
