Make France Great Again
Chapter 206 Loyalty is not absolute
Jerome Bonaparte's bow was unexpected by everyone present. In the past, rulers including Emperor Napoleon had never respected the army as much as Jerome Bonaparte.
The emperor's nephew bows to us again!
All the soldiers on the parade ground had only one thought left, and that was "loyalty to the man on the viewing platform"!
This idea spread throughout the army like a plague.
After the speech, the cuirassiers under the auditorium also began to take action under the order of Edgar Ney.
Edgar Ney stood upright with his feet together, then took out his command knife and turned to face Jérôme Bonaparte and loudly reported back: "Your Excellency, the troops under review have been lined up, please review!"
Jérôme Bonaparte did not speak but waved his hand. After receiving the order, Edgar Ney quickly turned around and shouted: "Mount the horse!"
The cuirassier battalions are uniformly mounted on high-headed black horses. These cuirassiers will act as messengers and pass through the various squares to convey the entry sequence of the parade.
Their skillful equestrian skills and glittering breastplates made them the focus of the military parade. The foreign envoys on the viewing platform all commented on the cuirassiers. Some said they were an elite unit, while others said they were just a bunch of cuirassiers who could collapse at the first touch. .
They heard none of these comments, and certainly did not bother to listen to the comments of laymen who fearlessly conveyed the authority of the President to every military unit.
Under the instructions of these presidential "doppelgangers", the presidential authority is even more fully implemented in every square.
Under the leadership of the commander, the phalanx soldiers began to move in an orderly manner. The uniform weapons and uniforms made them look like waves. The troops began to move quickly without making the formation messy. When they left, When we get to the viewing platform, we can slow down.
As each phalanx soldier passed by the viewing platform, he called out his number and chanted hysterically. .
"Long live Bonaparte, long live the Republic!"
Amid the neat steps of the soldiers, the ground on the viewing platform shook, as if the earth was being toppled by it.
Every slogan brought a smile to Jérôme Bonaparte's face. In order to show respect for the army, he would take off his hat and salute every time the troops shouted slogans.
The phalanx of the 1st Paris Brigade concluded with "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Republic."
When it was the turn of the Second Brigade in Paris, the first phalanx, led by Brigadier General Canrobert, began to change its slogan.
"Long live Bonaparte, long live the Empire!"
Under the leadership of the commander, the soldiers began to shout at the top of their lungs.
The expressions of the foreign ministers and members of the Legislative Assembly on the viewing platform changed instantly. No one did not understand what this slogan represented.
These slogans were seriously illegal in the Bourbon and Orleans eras. Even during the enlightened Republic, this slogan also represented a politically incorrect signal.
To shout long live the empire in a republic is simply like declaring war on the republic.
If this was not a "sacred" military parade, they would impeach Canrobert.
Compared to the sudden change of attitude of the politicians in the Legislative Assembly, the big-headed soldiers obviously don't care about this. Under the commander's deliberate propaganda, the big-headed soldiers take it for granted that the so-called republic and the empire are the same thing, and that the president and the emperor are not the same. They are all the same person.
Not only them, but even the commanders of the troops also paid tribute to Jerome Bonaparte during the military parade. In their eyes, Jerome Bonaparte was an era, a lost era in France.
When all the troops of the Second Brigade of Paris ended with shouting "Long Live Bonaparte, Long Live the Empire", the Third Brigade of Paris came on stage. This army that had been to Rome obviously had more military spirit than the previous security army. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Led by the junior commander of the Paris Third Brigade, the Third Brigade, which was supposed to shout "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Republic", like the Paris Second Brigade, shouted the slogan "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Empire".
This group of soldiers who came back from the battlefield were louder and more passionate than the soldiers of the Second Brigade.
Changarnier's expression on the viewing platform also changed slightly, and the Paris Third Brigade tried to break away from his control.
The majesty and obedience from their superiors did not make the Third Brigade obedient.
De Castellana showed a meaningful smile, and the army's behavior was indeed what he expected.
In such an environment, how many people can truly avoid being swept away by this craze!
Jérôme Bonaparte smiled even more. The so-called military parade was a tool he used to test the loyalty of the army and his ability to control the army. The behavior of the Third Brigade in Paris made him realize that he could no longer rely on Shang. Garnier's case established prestige in the army.
He succeeded!
The military empire founded by his uncle still lives in everyone's heart, even if it is just a small microcosm of the empire, that is enough.
The shadow of the First French Empire will take root in the hearts of every soldier. Although there is the factor of Jérôme Bonaparte's persistent giving back to the army, part of it is the army's memories of the past.
Just imagine, if the army really doesn't miss the empire founded by his uncle, then even if he tries his best, he can't make the army shout the slogan "Long Live the Empire".
Although both Bourbon and Orleans launched wars to please the army, compared with the wars carried out by the emperor and the wealth they brought, what they gave to the army was nothing more than small favors.
After decades of dormancy and tranquility, the French army will never be bought off by small favors. The French army has forgotten the pain caused to them when the emperor was defeated. They have forgotten how to spit on the emperor who led him to victory when the army was defeated. , the army tired of peace from bottom to top has once again become more ambitious. They hope that there is someone who can lead them to repeat the path that the emperor said they should take. They want to pave a path with the blood of their enemies to pave the way for their own honors and medals. They hope that in Establish immortal merit in the great cause of conquest. To accomplish what they want, they can abandon the weak monarch (De Orléans), abandon the mediocre legislative assembly, and find a leader who can lead them to glory, whether this leader believes in Louis (Bourbon) or Napoleon. Jerome Bonaparte seized the opportunity. He pretended to be the Napoleon the army wanted and deceived the army with lies and blueprints.
The army that was willing to be deceived did not hesitate to elevate Jérôme Bonaparte to a position that should not belong to him in history. Just because his name was Napoleon, a country was easily controlled by a foreigner.
I have to say that this is simply more bizarre than some fantasy, but reality is always more fantasy than fantasy.
…
After the magnificent military parade, Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand with satisfaction and invited the troops to the open-air banquet.
The army also went to the open-air banquet in an orderly manner under the leadership of the commanders of the various formations. The unlimited supply of frozen chicken and enema was piled into a hill on the dining table. These were carried out by Fleury and Pesini. After many days of preparation, hundreds of hotels in Paris were invited to work overnight, and it cost nearly a million francs to complete.
The soldiers at the open-air banquet could enjoy the frozen chicken and enema on the table, and drink draft beer piled in barrels. At the call of the officers, the soldiers began to toast to the health of Jerome Bonaparte.
The considerate Jérôme Bonaparte would also order Edgar Ney and others to make their presence felt everywhere, and he would also walk through various drinking tables to build relationships with the officers.
Officers and soldiers gathered around Jerome Bonaparte to express their respect for him.
Jerome Bonaparte also responded one by one. It was not until Pesini told him that the banquet in the back room was about to begin that Jerome Bonaparte raised his glass to say goodbye: "Everyone, I am very happy that you can join me. If the president who is about to expire tells the truth, I am also willing to communicate with you more. However, I also have my own banquet, so..."
Jérôme Bonaparte drank all the wine in his glass and tipped it upside down in front of the table. The soldiers could only make way for him regretfully.
Jérôme Bonaparte and Pesini entered the castle nearly 100 meters away from the military parade.
In the splendid castle hall, middle- and high-level soldiers and foreign envoys were mixed together, and beautiful music began to play in the living room after the arrival of Jerome Bonaparte.
Jerome Bonaparte, who entered the living room, was still the focus of the banquet. Officers and foreign envoys came to Jerome Bonaparte one after another to express their blessings to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Everyone, please take a seat!" Jérôme Bonaparte invited the soldiers and foreign envoys to sit down at a long dining table. Search for books www.zhaoshuyuan.com
The senior generals scattered on both sides of the table whispered quietly, and their eyes turned to President Jerome Bonaparte and the people around him from time to time.
The reason why they reacted so violently was because there was someone sitting next to the president who shouldn't be sitting there.
On the left side of the president is the Minister of War Regno. As the most important assistant to the president, he should sit in this position. The person on the right side of the president is not Commander Changarnier as they thought, but Regno's assistant Saint .General Arnault.
As Secretary of State for the Army, Changarnier replaced Changarnier and became the president's right hand. Does this mean that the president will break with Commander Changarnier?
After Rennault and Saint-Arnaud, there were Brigadier General Canrobert, Brigadier General Niel, Director Lendl, and then Commander Changarnier.
