Make France Great Again
Chapter 249 The Legislative Assembly’s Counterattack
The Constitution of the Second Republic stipulates that the President has the undisputed supreme military command of all France. No one will question this power that even the Legislative Assembly cannot shake.
However, the Permanent Committee did not expect that Jérôme Bonaparte was so ungrateful that he would choose to take action in the Legislative Assembly.
This means that the executive power of the president is not affected by the prorogation of the Legislative Assembly. The legislative power and the power to dissolve the cabinet held by the Legislative Assembly are facing prorogation. It is reasonable for the president to order the Ministry of War to remove Changarnier.
Not to mention that the Party of Order is now facing a tearing situation. Because of Count Chambord's stupid speech in France, the orthodox and clerical factions in the Party of Order began to follow Chambord's arrangements and split between the Elysee Palace and the Republicans. .
All in all, the President has won the battle with the Party of Order.
The dissuasion that took place in the Elysée Palace was nothing more than a routine test by the Party of Order.
Jérôme Bonaparte blocked the mouths of Odilon Barro and Montalembert on the grounds that "the Republic gives the President power".
At this point, Odilon Barrow could only sigh, and they showed their last trump card.
"If you really want to remove General Changarnier, we will re-examine after the start of the parliament whether the cabinet you lead is still capable of leading France." Odilon Barrow's words revealed a threat. meaning.
It's just that the threat Odilon Barro said was far worse than Jerome Bonaparte imagined. He originally thought that the Legislative Assembly would vote a bill of no confidence in him. Who would have thought that the Legislative Assembly would even take a chance? Not having the courage, they just targeted their own cabinet.
A trace of contempt flashed in Jérôme Bonaparte's eyes, and his words also revealed a disdainful tone: "Mr. Barrot, you can do whatever you want. I believe that all French people have sharp eyes! If things happen When it really gets out of hand, let all French citizens vote to make their own choice.”
The expressions of Odilon Barrot and the MPs from the Party of Order behind him changed. Jérôme Bonaparte's threat of a referendum was like a sharp blade to them. They managed to keep the crowd at bay. We can't let Jerome Bonaparte introduce them.
"Mr. President, I believe that the Legislative Assembly will make a fair judgment. Excessive use of the power of the masses may backfire on itself!" Montalembert said to Jérôme Bonaparte in a compromising posture.
"I also believe that the sacred Legislative Assembly will make a fair and strict judgment!" Jérôme Bonaparte, who was disdainful of the Legislative Assembly in his heart, still showed respect for the Legislative Assembly. He also wanted to use a compromise attitude to give that A group of MPs are willing to solve problems within the framework of the fantasy.
After some talks, Jérôme Bonaparte and the members of the Party of Order did not reach any substantive compromise.
Jérôme Bonaparte, who had a tough attitude, did not make any concessions on the Changarnier matter.
Members such as Odilon Barro and Montalembert could only return without success. When they returned to Povaldi Street, they saw Thiers, who had been waiting for a long time.
"How was the conversation?" Thiers, who had no hope for negotiations, asked as usual.
Sitting on the sofa, Odilon Barrow made himself a cup of coffee, took a sip and replied: "It's useless! The president no longer listens to any of our ideas, and he even ignores our threats!"
Montalembert also shrugged: "What can we do now? File a lawsuit against the president? Or support Changarnier as speaker? We can't do either of these in a short time!"
Montalembert's words once again hit the morale of the members in the room, and many members were already considering whether they should find a new home in advance.
Thiers looked at Montalembert, with a meaningful smile on his lips and said: "Yes! We have no other options!"
Thiers' "surrender" undoubtedly dealt an even worse blow to the team. Everyone looked at Thiers in surprise.
"Don't look at me like that!" Thiers shrugged and sat next to Odilon Barrow. He smiled and raised his coffee cup to Odilon Barrow: "I'm right, Mr. Barrow." !”
Then, he glanced at Montalembert again: "Right! Mr. Montalembert!"
Odilon Barrow and Montalembert also smiled.
These three "old foxes" in the political arena have long understood each other's plans.
"Alas!" Thiers sighed and said to himself, "I don't know if we can get together like this next time."
After saying that, Thiers drank the coffee in one gulp and stood up to leave.
Odilon Barro and Montalembert sat face to face and stared at each other for a while without saying a word.
Then the two left Povaldi Street one after another.
Povaldi, which once carried the "dream" of the Party of Order, has gradually turned into an ordinary room.
October 1, 1850 was the last day that Changarnier was relieved of his position and left the Tuileries Palace.
Valley/span Under the scorching October sun, a carriage sped out from the Elysee Palace and soon arrived at the entrance of the War Department.
General Saint-Arnault and others, who had been waiting at the entrance of the war department early in the morning, hurriedly jogged to the door of the carriage after seeing the carriage marked with the Bonaparte family emblem.
The car door slowly opened, and General Saint-Arnaud's face changed from joy to shock. He never thought that the person in the car was the president himself. This kind of thing should not be done by the presidential secretary, so why should the president himself be alarmed.
"Your Majesty?" General Saint-Arnaud looked at Jérôme with confusion.
"Come up!" Jerome Bonaparte said calmly.
"Yes!" General Saint-Arnaud entered the carriage on the descending stairs.
The door closed again, and the carriage started galloping again.
Saint-Arnault, who was sitting opposite Jérôme Bonaparte, stood up straight and said nothing, and the carriage fell into a brief silence.
When the carriage galloped to the Seine River, looking at the endless flow of the Seine River and the busy workers on both sides of the river bank, Jérôme Bonaparte said: "General Saint-Arnault!"
"Yes!" General Saint-Arnaud responded quickly.
"After a while, you will be the Minister of War!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Saint Arnaud.
"Okay!" Saint-Arnaud replied subconsciously, and after a few seconds he realized what he was saying and said "Ah."
"Surprised?" Jérôme Bonaparte turned to Saint Arnaud and asked.
"No..." Saint-Arnault hurriedly denied, and he asked cautiously: "Minister Renault, he..."
"General Renault will go to Strasbourg to serve as the commander of the Strasbourg Front!" Jérôme Bonaparte said directly to Saint Arnaud.
"Yes!" General Saint-Arnaud responded immediately.
"General Saint-Arnault, don't you want to ask me why I arranged this?" Jerome Bonaparte said with a meaningful smile.
"It is the bounden duty of a soldier to obey orders!" Saint Arnaud responded categorically to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Very good!" Jérôme Bonaparte showed a satisfied smile to Saint Arnaud. He didn't like inquiring soldiers. Soldiers who think too much can easily become red elements.
In order to appease the possible emotions of his subordinates, Jérôme Bonaparte still explained to General Saint-Arnaud: "The Parliament will cast a vote of no confidence in the cabinet after it reopens. This is the price we pay for removing Changarnier! It is very likely that General Renault will be dismissed after the collapse of this cabinet. I hope that you can take over General Renault's position after he is dismissed. When the separation of government orders is completed, you will take over the position of Chief of General Staff.
In addition, General Renault's character is not suitable for the next action, and he retains too much kindness towards the enemy. "
The fame of Jerome Bonaparte's words dispelled Saint-Arnault's inner suspicion that Jerome Bonaparte wanted to kill the donkey. As for the second half of Jerome Bonaparte's words, Saint-Arnault Nuo felt the same in his heart.
Minister Renault was always too "kind" to the "enemies" of the Ministry of War. For some enemies that could be eliminated using Lei Ling's methods, the minister always left them a way to survive.
According to Saint-Arnault's own point of view, for some die-hards, retirement is their best way out.
Saint-Arnault, who agreed with the president's remarks in his heart, still had to put on an air of defending his boss.
After all, the president only asked Minister Renault to leave the center temporarily. Whether he can return to the center later is up to the president.
"Minister, he trusts others too easily!" Behind Saint-Arnaud's seemingly blaming, he was actually saying that the minister was "honest" in disguise.
"I hope that when you serve as Minister of War, you must follow the instructions from above." Jérôme Bonaparte warned Saint Arnaud, and then added: "By the way, I will be there for you." After becoming Secretary of War, find someone to fill your position! However, the next one will not hold multiple positions like you. Do you have anyone to recommend?"
Saint Arnaud was a little moved by Jerome Bonaparte's trust. Out of caution, Saint Arnaud recommended to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, I think Brigadier General Leboeuf is capable enough. Assist you in leading the Ministry of War, and it would be best to send a civilian to serve as Secretary of State!"
"Yes! I understand!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and responded to Saint Arnaud.
The carriage drove past the banks of the Seine, then through the streets of the Place de la Revolution, and finally arrived at the final location of their trip, outside the gardens of the Tuileries Palace.
