, the fastest update Make France Great Again latest chapter!

General Reño watched cheerfully as all the officers present were courting him, to be precise, the president behind him.

In the French army, the allegiance of others was nothing but fame and fortune.

He has led them to gain enough benefits in the Roman campaign.

In order to safeguard the vested interests of the army, General Reño received many complaints from the bishops under Pope Pius IX.

This army can be said to have received one-third of the wealth of the city of Rome. Everyone in the expeditionary army owes a favor to General Reno, so General Reno is unanimously supported by all members of the expedition force.

Now, General Reño is attracting them with the Ministry of War, why doesn't this make these **** swear allegiance to the president even more.

Not to mention them, even Brigadier General Niel, who has no obvious party affiliation on weekdays, is also somewhat moved.

The chaotic scene gradually stopped in General Reino’s silence, and everyone focused their attention on General Reino.

"Make trouble! Keep making trouble! Why don't you make trouble!" General Reynio pointed at all the officers present and scolded with a mocking tone: "Look at the way you are now, it's like a group of bandits gathered together to make a fuss. Dividing the spoils! Do you still look like a soldier!"

Fewer officers showed shameful smiles, and more were trained to have a thick skin.

After "rebuking" the group of idiots, General Reño then reassured: "Don't worry! Your Excellency President, can you forget your credit? Didn't the letter say it all, you will get the rewards you deserve!"

"Long live the president, long live the empire!"

Edgar Ney shouted aloud, and all the officers present also shouted along with Edgar Ney.

After that, several officers took advantage of the situation and shouted the slogan "We don't know anyone except the president!".

For a time, the entire conference hall was filled with the atmosphere of "loyalty".

"Okay! Your loyal president has already understood, you don't need to continue to shout slogans over and over again!" General Reigno raised his hand and made a gesture to lower his voice, and then said: "I will leave for Paris tomorrow!"

Except for Edgar Ney, everyone expressed surprise at General Reño's sudden departure.

After hesitating for a moment, Brigadier General Niel said, "Commander, if you leave without the order of the War Department, I'm afraid..."

Niel suddenly realized that General Reño was going to take over as the Minister of War, and he did not necessarily need an order from the Ministry of War.

As long as there is a president who opens the back door for him, he can make up a formalities afterwards.

"Don't worry!" General Reño said nonchalantly, "Those guys in the War Department can't help me!"

"Then, General, while you are away. What about the expedition?" Brigadier General Niel then asked General Lei Youao.

"Brigadier General Niel!" General Reño said to Niel with a serious expression.

"Yes!" Brigadier General Niel instantly stood up and waited for General Reigno's next order.

"During my absence, you will serve as the acting commander of the Roman Expeditionary Force!" General Reigno ordered Brigadier General Niel, and then turned to all the officers present: "During my absence, you will Strictly keep it a secret! Don't let the outside world know that I have left the military! Although I am not afraid of impeachment by those soft **** at the War Department, I also don't want to cause trouble for the president at this juncture! Got it?"

"Got it!" The officers responded to General Reynio imposingly.

"Don't worry! Before long, you will be able to escape from Rome and return to Paris! By then, you will all be the pillars of the War Department! By the way, I heard that His Excellency the President also has a military secretary office, maybe you may will be assigned there!"

As the Papal State gradually became regular, the French army of nearly 20,000 people became the burden of the entire Papal State. Therefore, under the "consultation" between Pius IX and the French ambassador to the Papal State, the French army retained a force of nearly 3,000 people. The contingent was near Rome to defend the safety of Rome and the Pope, and the rest of the troops would be withdrawn to Paris one after another after October, so General Reigno drew a large visible and palpable big picture to everyone present. Cakes, except they need to wait some time.

The officers again clamored for their loyalty to the president, in the presence of General Reño and Edgar Ney.

The meeting ended at 11 o'clock in the evening, and Brigadier General Niel was again deliberately kept by Reigno.

"General Reigno!" Niel still said to General Reigno in a military style, neither humble nor arrogant.

"That's right!" General Reynio nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's like a real general, it's not worth your Majesty to mention you in the letter!"

Brigadier General Niel was stunned for a moment, and he instantly understood that "Your Majesty" was referring to Jerome Bonaparte of the Elysee Palace. He was surprised that his reputation could reach the president's ears.

"General, thank you!" Brigadier General Niel thought that it was because of the general's recommendation that he was able to appear in the president's perspective.

"It's not me!" Reigno shook his head and responded to Niel. He also didn't understand why the president had specifically named Brigadier General Niel. Was it just because he was the largest officer in the expeditionary force besides himself?

General Reigno and Brigadier General Nierre would probably break their heads and would not know, because their president had read the entire magnificent chapter of the Second Empire. In this magnificent chapter, Nierre and his "Nierfa" occupies an important part of the whole chapter.

It's a pity that the "Nier method" was formed too late.

If "Nierfa" appeared earlier, France could use Nierfa to expand its army of 500,000 troops and 300,000 reserves, which is equivalent to more than 800,000 troops, if the National Guards of various places are added. , the result of the Franco-Prussian War will probably end with Napoleon III entering the Rhineland.

As long as Prussia shows its decline, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will never mind stabbing Prussia when it resists Germany, and then stage the drama of "the return of the Austrian emperor".

"His Majesty wants you to be the engineering director of the War Department and manage the logistics of the army! I don't know, what are your thoughts?" General Reynio asked General Niel in a consultative tone.

"I obey His Majesty's orders!" Brigadier General Niel immediately showed the idea of ​​moving closer to the President.

"Yeah! Immediately after I assume the role of Minister of War, I will start to transfer you to the Ministry of War!" General Regnio assured Brigadier General Niel.

Early the next morning, when the sky was still bright.

General Reño, dressed in civilian clothes, left Rome unnoticed and arrived at the port of Civitavecchia around 10:00 noon.

The ship arrived at the port of Marseille after an overnight journey. After disembarking, General Reno turned to hire a carriage to go to Lyon.

Finally arrived in Lyon from Marseille Port in the early evening.

The depressing scene in Lyon surprised Renio a little. It was only after Renio found a hotel for the night that he learned from the hotel owner.

There was a cholera in Lyon half a month ago. The cholera caused the loss of part of the population of Lyon, which had been infested by the "red", and was plagued by disease again.

The inexplicable cholera lasted for two weeks before it was controlled with the cooperation of Dr. Lyon.

"Alas! I heard that a marshal died in the military camp! Lyon's life is getting worse and worse!" The hotel owner sighed.

marshal?

General Reño remembered that Lyon was stationed with the Italian Front, and the leader of the Italian Front seemed to be Marshal Biro.

Thinking of this, General Reño couldn't help but feel sorry for the death of Marshal Biro.

After an overnight refurbishment, General Reigno set off again by train for Paris.

The train pulled into Paris that night, and General Reigno, who did not want to be exposed prematurely, had to change his face and live in the chaotic Saint-Germain district, and at the same time wrote a letter and handed it over to the Eugène Rouet mansion.

Eugène Rouet, who received the letter, immediately went to the Elysee Palace to report the news of General Regnault to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Huh? General Regnault is back? Where are you now?" Jerome Bonaparte, who heard the news of Regnault, immediately got up and asked Eugène Rouet.

Eugène Rouet handed the letter to Jerome Bonaparte. After reading the letter, Jerome Bonaparte nodded at Eugène Rouet, and then ordered the dragoon generals to remain in the military secretary. The adjutant of the office, Conrobel, called over.

After receiving the order of Jerome Bonaparte, the dragoons quickly rode to the military secretary's office to convey the president's order to Canrobert.

In the process of negotiating with Leboeuf and others to draw a map of military fortification and topography in the Near East, Conrobel could only drop his work and head to the Elysee Palace.

"Your Majesty, do you have any new instructions!" Canrobert asked, standing upright in front of Jerome Bonaparte.

"General Reigno, commander of the expeditionary force, has arrived in Paris! It is not convenient for me to meet him now. I want you to contact him first! You will become colleagues who work together in the future!" Jerome Bonaparte said Conrobel said. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

"General Renio? Willing to serve you, Your Majesty!"

Since the last banquet, Conrobel had known that General Regnio would be the Minister of War.

However, he just kept his mind flat about it.

After working with the President for many days, Conrobel found that the President attached much more importance to the Military Secretary Office than the War Department, and some of the functions of the War Department had been stripped off by Minister Liueli.

Although the Office of the President's Military Secretary is only a subordinate department of the Ministry of War and is under the jurisdiction of the President, the future Military Secretary's Office will definitely become the person who actually commands the military.

As the first leader of the military secretariat, he will surely become the person in command of the entire French army.

Thinking of this, Conrobel couldn't help straightening his back.
