Make France Great Again
Chapter 717 Cleaning up the Crimean Peninsula (Part 1)
"I will be waiting for news of your victory in Paris!"
Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Ambassador Gorchakov with a smile, and then reminded Gorchakov not to forget to come and participate in the Peace Conference held in Paris in April this year.
Ambassador Gorchakov knew that the so-called peace conference mentioned by Jerome Bonaparte was nothing more than a supplementary explanatory conference led by France to carve up the territory of the Russian Empire.
However, Gorchakov had to attend this trial meeting against the Russian Empire. If they did not participate on behalf of the Russian Imperial Government, then the Golitsyn traitor group in Petersburg would definitely participate on behalf of the Russian Imperial Government.
This will cause them to indirectly lose their international influence, and European monarchies will most likely no longer regard Gorchakov as a fully functional government.
In this case, they will lose the support of some people.
After all, although Golitsyn's new government limited the tsar's power, they did not abolish the tsar.
The attitude of many monarchical countries will not be like killing republics, but will be in an ambiguous state like the original Orleans Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured! We will definitely go there on time!" Ambassador Gorchakov quickly assured Jerome Bonaparte.
"Okay! Ambassador Gorchakov, it's getting late! It's time for you to get on your way!" Jerome Bonaparte issued an expulsion order to Gorchakov.
Ambassador Gorchakov took one last longing look at the land behind Jerome Bonaparte, and then bowed to Jerome Bonaparte and left.
Looking at the Russian army walking away with snow that was almost up to their ankles, Jérôme Bonaparte smiled from the bottom of his mouth.
This war, which lasted for about a year, finally came to an end with the Russian Empire leaving the Crimean Peninsula.
Next, what he needs to do in the Crimean Peninsula is to clean up and reward his achievements.
"Walewski!" Jérôme Bonaparte called softly to the foreign minister beside him.
"Your Majesty!" Walewski hurriedly responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"What title do you think I should give to Marshal Pellissier?" Jérôme Bonaparte lowered his gaze and thought carefully: "Duke? Or count..."
"Your Majesty, it depends on your will!" Walewski quickly kicked the ball back to Jerome Bonaparte.
Whether it was a duke or a count, Walewski himself could not discuss it.
Walewski was right. If he had not correctly guessed Jérôme Bonaparte's thoughts, the consequences would have been serious.
He had a fairly good relationship with Marshal Pelissier, but he did not want to gain the hatred of Marshal Pelissier on this issue.
There is still a certain gap between the Duke and the Earl.
After thinking for a moment, Jerome Bonaparte decided to give Pellissier the title of Marshal Count.
After all, the late Marshal St. Arnaud only obtained the Count of Sevastopol.
As the successor of Marshal Saint-Arnaud, Marshal Pellissier was too difficult to confer the title of Duke.
In addition, the Crimean War itself relied on seven points of politics and three points of military affairs to achieve success, so Jérôme Bonaparte did not want to directly grant the title of Duke.
"I have decided to give Pellissier the title of Marshal and Count! As a reward for his heroic battle in the Crimean Peninsula, what do you think?" Jerome Bonaparte spoke to Valewski again. .
"That couldn't be better! I believe Marshal Pellissier will be moved by your kindness and generosity!" Walewski hurriedly flattered Jérôme Bonaparte.
"As for the title..." Jérôme Bonaparte paused and turned his gaze to Valewski.
"Your Majesty, since the Count of Sevastopol has been picked by the late Marshal St. Arnaud, why don't we give Field Marshal Pelissier Count Bacchisarai as a reward!" Valewski raised his head and looked at Jerome Bonaparte said.
"This..." Jérôme Bonaparte hesitated for a moment. He felt that granting a general the title of King Khan of Crimea was not a bit too presumptuous.
However, this idea only existed for a few seconds before he was interrupted by Jérôme Bonaparte. He finally made up his mind and said: "Okay! It's Count Bakhchisarai! You should go to Simferopol immediately to inform Marshal Pelissier, order him to come here quickly! Also, if Marshal Pelissier asks, don’t say anything to him! Do you hear me clearly?”
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Walewski bowed and responded to Jerome Bonaparte.
That afternoon, Minister Valevsky and his entourage set out from Perekop under the escort of Tatar cavalry. After several hours of long journey, they finally arrived at the capital of Simferopol that evening.
Under the leadership of French officers, Valewski came to Marshal Pellissier.
"Your Majesty Walewski, why are you here alone? Does your Majesty have any orders?" Marshal Pelissier asked Walewski hurriedly when they met.
"Marshal, congratulations!" Minister Walewski responded to Marshal Pelissier with a smile.
"Congratulations to me? Congratulations to me for what?" Marshal Pelissier asked Minister Valewski with a confused look on his face.
"Your Majesty Marshal, you won't know this until you arrive in Perekop!" Minister Walewski then said to Marshal Pelissier: "However, you'd better put on a formal suit and go..."
Walewski seemed to have not revealed a word to Marshal Pelissier, but in fact he had completely disclosed it to Pelissier.
At this time, Marshal Pelissier still didn't understand what Walewski meant. Emperor Jerome Bonaparte's purpose of sending him to Perekop was most likely to give him a promotion.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your information!" Marshal Pelissier quickly responded to Valewski.
"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't tell you anything!" Walewski denied it flatly, and then added: "And in front of His Majesty, you must pretend not to know anything!"
Early the next morning, after explaining what he should pay attention to after leaving, Marshal Pelissier changed into the uniform of a Marshal of the First Empire and Valewski set out from Simferopol and arrived in Belje at noon. Popular science fortress.
The two people who entered the fortress, led by Jerome Patterson, came to Jerome Bonaparte's residence in Perekop.
"Your Majesty, Marshal, Your Excellency, Minister, please wait here for a moment! Your Majesty is waiting for some time upstairs, and he is expected to meet you in half an hour!" Jerome Patterson said while bringing Marshal Pelissier and Walewski led him to a room and waited, while explaining to the two of them.
Marshal Pelissier and Valewski immediately expressed their understanding, and then followed Jerome Patterson's arrangement and entered the room to wait.
Later, Jerome Patterson ordered the servants in the residence to bring them cakes and black tea, so that the two people who were tired from traveling could have some food.
Marshal Pellissier and Valewski sat in the room and waited quietly for Jérôme Bonaparte.
The person they were waiting for was currently in the study on the second floor of the residence, listening to the report of the Director of Munitions, Leboeuf.
"Your Majesty, this is a plan drawn up by our technical staff. Please take a look at the disposal plan for the Camisport-Alma section of the railway!" Leboeuf used a respectful tone with a hint of reserve, and put the hand in his hand. The documents are presented.
"Thank you!" Jérôme Bonaparte solemnly took the document handed over by Uncle Le, looked through it carefully, and then put the document back on the table.
The content of the document is very simple: the Ministry of Munitions wants the railway and equipment between the port of Qamish and Alma to be dismantled, transported to the Syrian province, and a railway built from Yat to Jerusalem!
Once the railway is completed, more and more people will make pilgrimages to Jerusalem.
At the same time, the French Empire could also achieve further control near Jerusalem through the railway.
"Who is responsible for contracting this railway?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Leboeuf.
"Mr. Isaac Perel!" Leboeuf responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"What about the price?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked again.
"20% higher than the market price of scrap iron!" Leboeuf then responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"They are quite good at doing business!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Leboeuf with a slight smile.
"Your Majesty, shall we agree to them?" Leboeuf asked Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Just follow the plan!" Jérôme Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Anyway, it would be a waste to keep this railway here. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com I believe that the Ottoman Empire Ab Dürer will definitely not invest too many resources here! Rather than letting this railway stay here, it is better to use it as waste! This way, some waste heat can be used!"
"Yes!" Leboeuf nodded, and then handed Jérôme Bonaparte a copy of the "Plan for the Disposal of Horses and Mules in the French Army"
In this plan, Leboeuf pointed out that the French army had too many horses and mules (most of which would be snatched away). If they were all shipped back, the cost alone would far exceed the price of the horses and mules themselves. , so the highest possible outcome would be to sell it in situ to the local regime in the Crimean Peninsula.
And they also expressed their willingness to serve for the French Empire with the Governor of the Crimean Peninsula, Musa Glei Pasha (Musa Glei has been recognized by the Ottoman Empire as the Governor of Crimea). Horses and mules are "services", but given that the Crimean Peninsula itself is a poor place, the prices they offer are also lower than the market price.
