Make France Great Again

Although certain benefits can be obtained from the Eastern Empire, Jerome Bonaparte does not want to do anything to the home country of the previous life.

Even if the current occupation of this country is a colonial regime in the cloak of feudalism, he doesn't want to hurt it too much.

Seeing that Jérôme Bonaparte is only willing to make money (referring to selling a large amount of weapons and equipment to the rebels and government forces), Ambassador Kautz, who is unwilling to get involved in the affairs of the Eastern Empire, has a little regret in his heart.

Although relying on Britain's own strength, it is fully capable of making the rulers of the Eastern Empire surrender to them, but the Kingdom of Britain still wants the French Empire to help stand up.

After all, France had the second largest army in the Eastern Empire after the British Kingdom.

If they are willing to help, Britain can send some fewer troops.

"Your Majesty, if that's the case, then I won't bother you!" Ambassador Kauts said respectfully to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte personally sent Ambassador Kautz out, and then called Basilio.

"Which room is Richard Metternich!" Jerome Bonaparte then asked Basilio.

"Your Majesty, please come with me!" Basilio said to Jerome Bonaparte, and then led Jerome Bonaparte upstairs, "Ambassador Richard is inside! "

Jerome Bonaparte opened the door and entered the room. Richard Metternich quickly got up from the sofa after hearing the movement outside the door, and then walked in the direction of Jerome Bonaparte. .

Jerome Bonaparte and Richard Metternich met in the middle of the road. After the two shook hands, Richard Metternich said to Jerome Bonaparte respectfully: " His Majesty!"

"Richard, you came to visit me at the order of Franz Joseph!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich.

Richard Metternich shook his head and responded to Jerome Bonaparte, "Your Majesty! Our Emperor Franz Joseph not only ordered me to bring you the most sincere greetings from the Austrian Empire, but also Also let me ask if you need help from the Austrian Empire!"

"Oh?" Richard Metternich's response surprised Jerome Bonaparte.

Unexpectedly, the Austrian Empire, which has always been known for its diplomatic attitude of "making big things small and small things small," would be willing to help them.

This somewhat surprised Jerome Bonaparte.

"Richard!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and said in a slightly frivolous tone, "I am very glad that your government is friendly to the French Empire at this critical juncture!

But this assassination belongs to the internal affairs of the French Empire and does not require the assistance of the Austrian Empire! "

"Your Majesty! This assassination is not only the internal affairs of the French Empire itself, but also concerns the entire monarchy!" Richard Metternich responded to Jerome Bonaparte with righteous words.

"Oh?" Jerome Bonaparte showed an interested smile, and now he would like to hear your unique insights, "Why is this assassination related to the entire monarchy!"

Richard Metternich asked Jerome Bonaparte unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, according to the information disclosed by the Ministry of the Interior, most of the four people responsible for assassinating you are from the Apennine Peninsula. ! (One of the few pieces of information that Pessini has leaked to the outside world, but no specific country is involved)”

"There are indeed assassins from the Apennine Peninsula!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and responded to Richard Metternich, "However, I don't understand what the assassination has to do with the monarchy!"

Richard Metternich told Jerome Bonaparte that just a few months ago, several dukes and princes in the Apennine Peninsula were successively assassinated by the Carbonari Party.

Now, Jerome Bonaparte has also been assassinated!

"Your Majesty and Metternich's advisers (Richard Metternich's father, the old Prince Metternich) believe that this is a deliberate conspiracy by the Italian Carbonari Party against the monarch!

They want to rely on this method to subvert the monarchy and realize the republic they implemented in 48! "Richard Metternich responded plausibly to Jerome Bonaparte, "So this assassination is not only the internal affairs of France, but also concerns the European monarchy!" "

After listening to Richard Metternich's words, Jérôme Bonaparte was silent for a moment, half-jokingly and half-seriously said to Richard Metternich: "Richard, your idea is indeed very novel!

How will you Austrian Empire prepare to maintain order in the monarchy!

It is impossible to send troops directly to the Apennine Peninsula to help the Apennine Peninsula eliminate extremists! "

"Your Majesty, that's what our Austrian Empire thinks! We hope that the French Empire and the Austrian Empire will join hands to maintain the stability of the Apennine Peninsula!" Richard Metternich nodded to Jerome Bonaparte.

The corners of Jerome Bonaparte's mouth twitched slightly, and Tate originally thought that he was the only one who wanted to do something to the Apennine Peninsula.

Unexpectedly, the Austrian Empire agreed with his ideas.

He clearly remembered the Austrian Empire in the original history, and had never cared much about the affairs of the Apennine Peninsula.

When it was his turn, the Austrian Empire cared much more about the Apennines than in history.

"Mr. Richard, it seems that France is helping the Austrian Empire, not the Austrian Empire helping the French Empire!" Jerome Bonaparte reminded Richard Metternich.

"Your Majesty, help is mutual!" Richard Metternich responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "This matter will also help the French Empire!"

"I don't see any benefit from it! This will bring our relationship with the Kingdom of Sardinia to a freezing point!" Jerome Bonaparte then responded to Richard Metternich.

"Your Majesty! The relationship between the Kingdom of Sardinia and France should be the same as the relationship between our country and the Duchy of Tuscany!

The Kingdom of Sardinia should become a vassal of France! "Richard Metternich said nakedly, "But the current Kingdom of Sardinia has begun to move closer to the Kingdom of Britain, and they are likely to become a **** of the Kingdom of Britain in the Apennine Peninsula!" "

"The relationship between Sardinia and France is the internal affairs of the French Empire and has nothing to do with the Austrian Empire!

" Jerome Bonaparte pointedly said to Richard Metternich, "

And the Kingdom of Britain is also our best ally, why should we guard against our allies!

I think the help in your mouth is nothing more than your own rhetoric because you have no excuse to take action on the Apennine Peninsula! "

Jerome Bonaparte was right, the help Richard Metternich spoke of was nothing more than a set of rhetoric.

The actual situation is that the Austrian Empire wants to take this opportunity to join forces with the French Empire to attack all extremist forces in the Apennine Peninsula.

Because recently, the Charcoal Burning Party in the entire Apennine Peninsula has been extremely active, fanning the people to rebel against the Austrian Empire from time to time, and assassinating the monarch of the Italian state under Austrian control.

This made the Austrian Empire miserable. In addition, the Austrian Empire was affected by the economic crisis, and the original momentum of rapid development was suddenly interrupted.

(The historical Austrian Empire was not backed by a large amount of French capital.)

In order to divert domestic conflicts, the Austrian Empire had to consider a heavy blow to the Apennine Peninsula.

In this way, those unsightly Carbon Burning Party members can be cleaned up, and the economic contradictions of the empire can also be diverted, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

It's just that due to the French Empire, although the Austrian Empire had such an idea, it was unable to put it into action.

It happened that Jérôme Bonaparte was assassinated again, and the Austrian side thought carefully. They asked Richard Metternich to test Jerome Bonaparte's attitude.

"Your Majesty, although the relationship between the British Kingdom and the French Empire is very good, after all, the interests of the two countries determine everything!" Seeing that Jerome Bonaparte "doesn't take the bait", Richard Metternich said earnestly Persuaded by Jerome Bonaparte.

"I don't think there is much conflict between the interests of France and Britain!" Jerome Bonaparte blurted out in denial.

"Your Majesty, isn't the difference between Britain and France in the Mediterranean a conflict of interest?" Richard Metternich asked, "If the Kingdom of Sardinia trades Sardinia for the protection of the Kingdom of Britain, then the French Empire may There is no reason to stop it!"

"Impossible!" Jerome Bonaparte showed a trace of panic appropriately, "Cavour would not do such an irrational thing!"

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia is indeed unable to do such an irrational thing, but it does not mean that other people in the Kingdom of Sardinia will not!

Their monarch, Victor Inmanuel II, is not such a sensible person. "Richard Metternich mistakenly believed that Jerome Bonaparte had believed that Sardinia was willing to lease Sardinia to Britain.

[ps: Historically, the conversation between Sardinia and Britain on the Sardinia issue was after Napoleon III annexed Nice and Savoyon, in order to safeguard Britain's rights in the Mediterranean.

Britain had only begun to talk to Piedmont about Sardinia.

And this plane ~www.NovelMTL.com~ is due to the French Empire annexing the Kingdom of Morocco more quickly than in history.

This made the British Kingdom worry in advance that the Mediterranean hegemony would be threatened, so they had to choose to leverage Sardinia to complete the containment of France.

The Lease of Sardinia was little more than a tentative demonstration of British rights to France in the Mediterranean, and Jérôme Bonaparte did not care. 】

"He may be irrational sometimes, but my army stationed at the border will restore his mind to reason!" Jerome Bonaparte snorted coldly, and responded to Richard Metternich .

Just when Richard Metternich was about to give up, Jerome Bonaparte continued, "However, you are right in one thing!

Sardinia really needs a lesson! "

"Your Majesty, the Austrian Empire is willing to act together with France!" Richard Metternich said to Jerome Bonaparte with a slightly excited tone.
