Make France Great Again

"Act together? No, no, no! Ambassador Richard!" Jerome Bonaparte spread his hands and said to Richard Metternich: "If the French Empire acts together with the Austrian Empire, then the Kingdom of Britain will What do you think!

Will they think that our two countries have made some ulterior transactions in private, and then join hands to annex the Apennine Peninsula completely! "

"Your Majesty, what do you mean!" Richard Metternich asked Jerome Bonaparte.

"Our two countries, it is best to act separately! If necessary, our two countries can create some confrontation!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich.

"Act separately? Create confrontation!" Although Richard Metternich could understand every French word, when they were linked together, he had some trouble understanding the meaning of Jerome Bonaparte.

"What I mean is that the Austrian Empire can attack the Kingdom of Sardinia alone, as long as the Austrian Empire does not intend to annex the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Jerome Bonaparte said bluntly to Richard Metternich Said.

"Your Majesty, our country has nothing wrong with the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Richard Metternich emphasized.

Whether it is himself or the entire Austrian imperial court, there is no option for direct annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

The Austrian Empire has enough territory in the Apennine Peninsula. If Sardinia is annexed, the Austrian Empire may face the threat of France.

"That's good!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded to Richard Metternich, "I will give orders to Cavour after the Orsini incident is over!

Order him to seize the liberal press, I think Cavour will not agree!

At that time, I will evacuate the envoys stationed in Turin!

At that time, your Austrian Empire can order the Kingdom of Sardinia to lay down its arms and accept investigations on the grounds of punishing extreme nationalist analysis!

"

"What if the Kingdom of Sardinia is unwilling to lay down its arms!" Richard Metternich asked back.

There was a hint of approval in Jerome Bonaparte's eyes. He knew that the reason why Richard Metternich asked "overwhelmingly" was to ask Jerome Bonaparte to guarantee him.

Even if this guarantee is a verbal guarantee.

"At that time, the Austrian Empire will be able to fight against the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich, and then added: "The French Empire will never stop it!

Until the Kingdom of Sardinia agrees to let the French Empire carry out armed mediation while restricting domestic revolutionaries!

At that time, our army will enter the border of Sardinia!

By that time, the Austrian Empire will be able to withdraw from the Kingdom of Sardinia smoothly!

By the way, you'd better bring the Kingdom of Prussia along!

Even if the Kingdom of Prussia is only shouting a few words on the surface! "

After listening to Jerome Bonaparte's strategy, Richard Metternich couldn't help feeling a little afraid of Jerome Bonaparte.

Use the Austrian Empire to weaken the Kingdom of Sardinia, then run to rescue them in turn as a savior.

This will not only prevent the French Empire from being hated by Sardinia, but also allow France to deepen its control over the Kingdom of Sardinia.

The role of Prussia is just an excuse for France to maintain its neutrality. As long as the Austrian Empire continues to exert pressure on Sardinia, Cavour will inevitably succumb to Jerome Bonaparte's will.

Moreover, this war is also very beneficial to the Austrian Empire.

The Austrian Empire was not only able to reach the idea of ​​diverting economic conflicts through war, but was also able to obtain a sum of compensation from Sardinia.

The last time Sardinia made compensation to the Austrian Empire, it was not implemented because of the Austrian Empire's own reasons.

(At that time, the Austrian Empire was worried that Britain and France might attack them because of the Kingdom of Sardinia, so many compensations were reduced by them.

Today, the Austrian Empire is allied with the French Empire!

They don't have to worry about that kind of problem anymore! )

This time, they will never "show mercy" to Sardinia like last time.

"Your Majesty, I will pass on your suggestion to His Majesty Franz! I believe His Majesty will agree with you!" Richard Metternich said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"As long as the French Empire and the Austrian Empire join hands, there will be no opponent in Europe that we cannot defeat!" Jerome Bonaparte said wildly.

Richard Metternich smiled slightly, but did not refute it.

Later, Jerome Bonaparte asked Richard Metternich if he was interested in acting as a "son of God" and attacking the "Pope States" of the Papal State.

[The Papal State is the overall name of the entire Pope's territory, which is divided into the Pope's vassal state and the church states.

The pope's vassal state refers to the territory directly led by the pope, and the church states refer to the vassal states under the papal state system. 】

After all, relying on the more than 2,000 people stationed in the Papal State by the French Empire alone, it is indeed somewhat powerless to defend the huge territory of the Papal State.

If the Austrian Empire can annex the church states like the German princes annexed the German Bishop, Jerome Bonaparte will definitely give the Austrian Empire a big medal.

However, His Majesty the "great" Pope will definitely object to this opinion.

As long as the Austrian Empire agrees and the French Empire acquiesces, who cares whether the Pope will object.

Unfortunately, Richard Metternich was not hooked.

For the current Austrian Empire, expansion is not the primary purpose of the Austrian Empire. Only maintaining the stability of the existing territory of the Austrian Empire is the top priority.

Not to mention, the annexation of ecclesiastical states may provoke further wrath from the Pope.

The Austrian Empire has just abolished the tithe for a few years (it was abolished in 1848), and I really don't want to make the Pope angry again.

Therefore, Richard Metternich rejected Jerome Bonaparte's "suggestion", and once again emphasized that the existing territory of the Austrian Empire fully meets the needs of the Austrian Empire.

Jerome Bonaparte had no choice but to ask the Austrian Empire to send an army to the church dependent state after the intervention ended.

Richard Metternich agreed to this condition without hesitation.

After everything was settled, Richard Metternich left the Du Yin Leli Palace.

Jerome Bonaparte returned to his study and glanced at the grandfather clock in the corner.

It was already 11:20, and there were only 40 minutes left for lunch.

Jerome Bonaparte simply left all his work in the afternoon and used this time to read today's newspapers.

Thus, Jerome Bonaparte called Bacilio and ordered him to go to the secretary's room and bring all the domestic and foreign newspapers for today!

Basilio took the order to leave, and after a while, he appeared in Jerome Bonaparte's office with a stack of book-thick newspapers in his arms.

"Your Majesty, these are today's newspapers!" Basilio said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Thank you!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Basilio.

"nothing!"

Bacilio left the study and closed the door for Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte was alone in his study, quietly flipping through the newspapers.

The first is the newspapers in Paris. Almost all the front pages of the newspapers reported the news of the assassination of Jérôme Bonaparte.

And every newspaper was outraged at the blatant assassination of the emperor by this unknown assassin.

Even the left-wing newspapers expressed euphemistic objections to the assassination of Jerome Bonaparte.

This result made Jerome Bonaparte feel a little relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte flipped through the British newspapers.

However, while flipping through the British newspapers, Jerome Bonaparte felt something was wrong.

Because there were more or less criticisms of Jerome Bonaparte in the British newspapers in the past.

However, this time the newspapers were all "sympathy" for Jerome Bonaparte.

This made Jerome Bonaparte frowned. After carefully reading through all the newspapers in Britain, he found that the newspaper handed to him by the secretary's office this time was different from the one given to him before.

"London Daily Tribune", "Reuters"...these are the best newspapers in my impression, none of them are there!

Jerome Bonaparte couldn't help frowning, he hurriedly called Bashilio and ordered him to call Lucien Murat, head of the secretary's office, to him.

Basilio tactfully suggested to Jerome Bonaparte that it would be best to summon Lucien Murat after dinner.

"Tell Lucien Murat to come here now!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Basilio with a serious expression.

Seeing this, Bacilio had no choice but to obey Jerome Bonaparte's order, and went to the secretary's room to call Lucien Murat to him.

"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?" Lucien Murat asked respectfully.

"What's the matter?" Jérôme Bonaparte shuddered, then threw out a few newspapers and said to Lucien Murat, "Check out the newspapers you choose in the secretary's office!"

Lucien Murat looked at the treasure in his hand, and thought to himself: Not good!

"Where did the Daily Tribune go?" Jerome Bonaparte asked rhetorically.

"Maybe because of negligence..." Lucien Murat said tremblingly~www.readwn.com~ Negligence? Jérôme Bonaparte sneered, and then asked: "Who is in charge of the newspaper review in the secretary's office!" "

Lucien Murat revealed his name, and Jerome Bonaparte immediately ordered Lucien Murat: "Tell him to pack up and get out of here right now!

Liars are not welcome in the secretarial office! "

"Yes!" Lucien Murat had no choice but to respond to Jerome Bonaparte.

After Lucien Murat left, Jerome Bonaparte began to think about a new candidate for the new secretary.

After all, the position of chief secretary is really important.

It is equivalent to the eyes and ears of Jerome Bonaparte, so it must be served by someone who Jerome Bonaparte trusts enough.

But now Lucien Murat could no longer gain the trust of Jerome Bonaparte.
