Make France Great Again
Chapter 693 Strategic Deployment
On November 17, Jerome Bonaparte, in the name of the Supreme Commander of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters (who makes it possible that there is no one with a higher position than Jerome Bonaparte in the entire expeditionary force, and no one more senior than France The army that can fight, which led him to easily order the British, Satellite and Turkish Three Kingdoms) to issue a gathering order. Marshal Raglan, the commander of the English Expeditionary Force, Marshal La Maramore, the commander of the Sardinian Expeditionary Force, and the Ottoman Empire Expeditionary Force Commander-in-Chief Omar Pasha, together with their adjutants and staff, braved the biting cold wind to go to the French Expeditionary Force Headquarters to accept the unified command of the French Expeditionary Force Headquarters.
When everyone arrived near the French headquarters, they saw Jerome Bonaparte and Marshal Pellissier standing at the door. They hurriedly accelerated their pace and arrived at the headquarters.
"Your Majesty!" Marshal Raglan and others who entered the headquarters bowed to Jerome Bonaparte in unison to show respect.
Jérôme Bonaparte nodded slightly, smiled and responded to Raglan and others: "Thank you for your hard work! Please follow me!"
Then, everyone who arrived at the headquarters came to the conference hall of the expeditionary force headquarters at the invitation of Jérôme Bonaparte.
At this time, a small piece of cake and a steaming cup of coffee were placed on the long conference table in the conference hall. It seemed that these should be specially prepared for them.
"Sit down! Everyone!" Jérôme Bonaparte's voice reached everyone's ears, "Considering that you braved the severe cold to come from the north shore of Sevastopol, I specially asked the kitchen to prepare it for you. Something! I hope you are satisfied!"
Jerome Bonaparte's words made everyone present feel warm in their hearts, and they respected Jerome Bonaparte even more.
Raglan Yuan and others once again expressed their gratitude to Jérôme Bonaparte, and then found their respective seats to sit down and enjoy cakes and coffee.
As soon as the steaming hot coffee entered the stomach, the chill and fatigue on the body were immediately dispelled, and everyone present could not help but feel much more energetic.
After a while, after almost everyone present had consumed their cakes and coffee, Jérôme Bonaparte said: "Everyone, the purpose of calling you here is to hope that you will be happy in the next period. With time, we can actively cooperate with France's military operations and strive to eliminate the Russian troops entrenched in the three cities of Bakhchisarai, Simferopol and Saki as soon as possible!
Eliminate the power of the Russian Empire in the Crimean Peninsula! "
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed immediately. They didn't understand why Jerome Bonaparte chose to attack at this time.
Could it be that France and Russia fell out so quickly?
Apparently a few days ago, the French Empire and the Russian Empire were still in peace talks.
Just when everyone was guessing why Jerome Bonaparte chose to attack at this time, Marshal Raglan, whose position in the coalition was second only to Jerome Bonaparte, gently raised his hand. .
"Marshal Raglan, what do you want to say?" Jerome Bonaparte asked with a smile.
Marshal Raglan stood up and asked Jérôme Bonaparte in a respectful manner: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for asking you! Why do you want to attack the Russian Empire at this time?"
"Marshal Raglan, do we need to choose an auspicious day when launching an attack?" Jerome Bonaparte asked in return.
"That's not what I meant!" Marshal Raglan quickly shook his head and cautiously expressed his understanding: "I just feel that it is not appropriate to launch a general attack on Bakhchisarai in such weather! Our troops are not used to fighting in such weather!
If you attack rashly, it may affect the combat effectiveness of the army! "
"Not used to it?" Jérôme Bonaparte raised his eyebrows and replied sternly: "We don't have time to wait for the soldiers to get used to the combat environment. This is a battlefield, not a place for children to play house, so we must Just take action!”
"Why do we need to attack so urgently?" Marshal Raglan asked Jérôme Bonaparte again, "We can wait until the spring of next year before launching an attack on them!
I believe that the Russian army at that time was easier to deal with than it is now! "
La Maramore and Omar Pasha also secretly agreed with Marshal Raglan's words.
After all, the original Emperor Napoleon collapsed in the Moscow winter. They thought that their ability was not half that of Emperor Napoleon, which was really a bit embarrassing.
"Marshal Raglan, what is your basis?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked in a calm tone.
"What basis?" Marshal Raglan looked at Jérôme Bonaparte in confusion.
"Didn't you just say that the Russian army in spring is easier to deal with than the Russian army in winter! I think your statement should be based on evidence!" Jerome Bonaparte said calmly.
"Most of our soldiers have never experienced the Russian winter, so..." Marshal Raglan responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Does it mean that the winter in the Crimean Peninsula only freezes us and not the Russian soldiers?" Jerome Bonaparte asked rhetorically, "Or do you think that the supplies that the Russian Empire can obtain now are far better than us?"
Facing Jerome Bonaparte's question, Marshal Raglan was silent for a moment.
Jérôme Bonaparte was right. Whether it was the change of military equipment or the acquisition of logistical supplies, the coalition forces were better than the Russian army. They did not need to be so afraid at all.
"I know that some of you are afraid that we will repeat the mistakes of Emperor Napoleon in Moscow, so you are afraid of attacking!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to everyone present in an unquestionable tone: "Now I can I tell you responsibly that we will never repeat the mistakes of the past!
We have stronger artillery and rifles than before, and we also have stronger means of transportation than before.
I can honestly say that as long as our railways can continue to operate, we will be able to get a steady stream of peace of mind!
Those factors that were detrimental to us have now been basically eliminated, so you have nothing to worry about! "
As soon as Jérôme Bonaparte finished speaking, Marshal Raglan was the first to start applauding, and then everyone present applauded!
The winter in Crimea really frightened the courage of some generals. If it were not for the encouragement of Jérôme Bonaparte, everyone present would not have the courage to make the decision to attack at all.
After all, there is a "heaven" above their heads that can make decisions for them, so they will not fall into a situation of arguing with each other.
Marshal Pellissier, who was sitting in his seat, also admired Jérôme Bonaparte even more in his heart!
If he was responsible for presiding over this meeting, then he would never be able to achieve the effect of Jerome Bonaparte.
Because Marshal Raglan was on the same level as him in terms of military rank and status, it was impossible for him to repeatedly use coercive means to ask Marshal Raglan to cooperate.
At that time, he may have to compromise with Marshal Raglan.
Once Pelisi compromises with Marshal Raglan, the original battle plan may have to be revised.
One by one, the entire battle plan will become a mess.
After enjoying the applause of the crowd, Jérôme Bonaparte showed a satisfied smile, and then clapped his hands gently.
Jerome Patterson, who was standing at the door of the conference hall, heard the clapping from the room, quickly entered the conference hall with a stack of documents in his arms, and placed the documents in front of Jerome Bonaparte.
"Send all the battle plans!" Jerome Bonaparte gently nodded the table and said to Jerome Patterson.
"Yes!" Jerome Patterson handed the bound battle plan to everyone present.
Everyone who received the battle plan looked at it intently. Jérôme Bonaparte spoke again: "This is just the initial plan! If something goes wrong in the subsequent war, there will be a new battle plan. !”
Not long after, the sound of rustling pages was heard in the conference hall, but no one said a word.
After about ten minutes passed, Jérôme Bonaparte crossed his arms and asked in an indifferent tone: "Do you have any questions for me?"
This time it was Marshal Raglan who stood up again: "Your Majesty, our battle plan requires 45,000 of Britain's 50,000 troops. Isn't this a bit too risky?"
"Adventure?" Jerome Bonaparte spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "Marshal Raglan, I don't think this is too risky! Sevastopol doesn't need so many. force!
Furthermore, besides your 5,000 people, there are also Omar Pasha’s 5,000 people!
As long as your 45,000 people plus the 20,000 people left behind in Yevpatoria can completely suppress the Russian army of Thachi (the current strength of Thachi is 80,000) in the fortress!
Then you don’t have to worry about safety issues in Sevastopol! "
After listening to Jerome Bonaparte's words, Marshal Raglan sat down again.
Next, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com La Maramore and Omar also raised some questions, and Jérôme Bonaparte also answered their questions one by one.
When everyone had no problems, Jerome Bonaparte spoke to them again: "Okay! Everyone, you all go back and prepare! I plan to launch an attack on the Russian army on the 19th. I hope you will not attack at the critical moment." It’s time to drop the chain!”
Everyone present quickly stood up and responded to Jérôme Bonaparte: "Understood!"
After the meeting, everyone left the French headquarters. That night, Ivanov Gorchakov appeared in front of Jerome Bonaparte again and informed Jerome Bonaparte of Alexander II. Shi wants to continue peace talks.
"Please tell your crown prince that the French army will not give in another step! We will occupy Bakhchisarai at the end of this month. By that time, the Russian Empire will come back to discuss peace talks!"
