Make France Great Again

After Richard Metternich left the Tuileries Palace again, Jerome Bonaparte ordered Basilio to go to the Sardinian Embassy to bring Prime Minister Cavour...no, it should be called Cavour. Sir, please come to the Tuileries Palace!

After an unknown amount of time, the knock on the door reached Jerome Bonaparte's ears again. Jerome Bonaparte lowered his head and said lightly, "Please come in!"

The sound of the door opening reached Jérôme Bonaparte's ears, and then Basilio's voice said, "Your Majesty, I have brought Count Cavour here!"

Jérôme Bonaparte then raised his head and looked at Basilio in the distance and Cavour behind Basilio.

"You go out first! I want to have a good talk with Cavour!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Basilio calmly.

"Yes!" Basilio immediately bowed to Jerome Bonaparte and left.

The door was closed again, and only Jérôme Bonaparte and Cavour were left in the room.

"Count Cavour, come and sit!" Jérôme Bonaparte pointed to the chair opposite and said to Cavour.

Cavour obeyed Jerome Bonaparte's order, walked step by step to the opposite side of Jerome Bonaparte, and then sat down.

After the two sat face to face for a while, Jérôme Bonaparte asked Cavour again, "Count Cavour, do you know why I came to you?"

Cavour shook his head and looked at Jérôme Bonaparte with a slightly confused look: "Your Majesty, I don't know!"

Jérôme Bonaparte, who caught the confusion in Cavour's eyes, did not doubt whether Cavour really didn't know.

"Well! Since you don't know, then I'll tell you!" Jerome Bonaparte began to polish and delete the contents of the telegram that Richard Metternich had just described in the study, and then told Gafo Listen.

When Cavour heard that Victor Emmanuel II wanted to solve the crisis facing Sardinia by expanding the investigation of member states, he suddenly realized that Victor Emmanuel II The method is indeed better than simply relying on the French Empire.

Thinking of this, Cavour could not help but feel some regret for his diplomatic mistakes.

On weekdays, he always told Victor Emmanuel II that the only way for the Kingdom of Sardinia to unify Italy was to rely on conflicts among the international community.

Unexpectedly, this time when the Austrian Empire invaded the Kingdom of Sardinia, he was so confused that he did not want to rely on international regulation and instead relied on the assistance of the French Empire.

There are really some mistakes!

"Count Cavour, Count Cavour!" Just when Cavour was lost in thought, Jerome Bonaparte's voice came.

Cavour came back to his senses and hurriedly replied to Jérôme Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, I am here!"

"Mr. Cavour, what do you think of the joint investigation mentioned by your King Victor Emmanuel II?" Jérôme Bonaparte showed a hypocritical smile and said to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, I do not know when or where our King made this proposal!" Cavour replied to Jérôme Bonaparte. "However, I personally believe that the joint investigation is of great significance to Sardinia." The Kingdom of Asia is beneficial and harmless!

I believe that the French Empire can provide justice to the Kingdom of Sardinia fairly and fairly! "

nonsense! Of course the joint investigation will be beneficial to you, but it will be detrimental to France! It would be even worse if you brought Britain in! Jérôme Bonaparte secretly thought.

Although Jerome Bonaparte knew that Victor Emmanuel II's request for a joint investigation was indeed detrimental to France, he could not say it clearly.

So, Jérôme Bonaparte tapped the table twice with his hand, making a thoughtful gesture. After a while, he raised his head again and said to Cavour, "The joint investigation is indeed beneficial and harmless. But do you know why the Austrian Empire came here specifically to tell me about this?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know!" Although Cavour already had a "guess" in his mind.

I thought about what Jérôme Bonaparte wanted to say next, but he still had to pretend to be ignorant.

"The Austrian Empire hopes that I can stand with them!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, please do not agree to the Austrian Empire!" Cavour quickly said to Jerome Bonaparte after hearing this.

"However, the Austrian Empire said that as long as I can agree to their request, they are willing to give France certain conveniences on the Rhineland issue!" Jerome Bonaparte used a false condition to defraud Cavour. He believed that Cavour Foure will certainly not check.

Even if Cavour wanted to check, Jerome Bonaparte had the ability to make the Austrian Empire cooperate with France to deceive the Kingdom of Sardinia.

There is no country in this world that money cannot live with.

As long as the French Empire is willing to spend money, then all problems will not be a problem.

Historically, France invested a total of hundreds of millions of francs for Savoy and Nice, killed nearly 10,000 people, and offended the Pope.

Now Jerome Bonaparte only needs to spend 600 million francs in interest-free loans to block the mouth of the Austrian Empire, and he may win Savoy and Nice. Such a transaction is really worth it for him.

"Your Majesty, please don't be fooled!" Cavour hurriedly threw dirt on the Austrian Empire. "The Austrian Empire is only trying to deceive you with false promises!"

"So Mr. Cavour, is the promise you gave me a true promise or a false promise?" Jérôme Bonaparte raised his eyebrows and asked Count Cavour with a playful smile.

"I..." Cavour said firmly after a moment of silence, "Your Majesty, I can guarantee that as long as the Kingdom of Sardinia can survive this crisis, we will definitely hand over Savoy and Nice to you. !」

"Mr. Cavour, please remember your promise!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Count Cavour with a serious expression, "What I hate most is people who don't keep their promises!"

"Your Majesty! Please rest assured!" Cavour assured Jérôme Bonaparte again, but he was still thinking about how to default on the French Empire.

Immediately afterwards, Cavour returned from the Tuileries Palace to the Sardinian Embassy in France, "Now immediately send a telegram to the Kingdom of Sardinia, saying that we have successfully gotten the French Empire to support our request to expand the investigation of the country." !

As long as the French Empire and the British Kingdom jointly investigate, then the Austrian Empire will have no reason to make things difficult for us! "

"Minister Cavour, then Savoy and Nice..." The Sardinian ambassador couldn't help but ask Cavour.

Prime Minister Cavour sighed and said to the Kingdom of Sardinia, "Savoy and Nice can only take one step at a time!"

…

Turning his attention to the Tuileries Palace, Jérôme Bonaparte once again ordered Cavour to inform Richard Metternich.

"Immediately send someone to tell Richard Metternich that the French Empire will agree to the Kingdom of Sardinia's request for a joint investigation!" Jerome Bonaparte warned Basilio, "At the same time Requesting their armies in the Lombard region to march immediately upon hearing the call from the French Empire!"

"Yes!" Basilio said quickly to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Also, call Minister De Ruys and Chief of General Staff Niel to me now!" Jerome Bonaparte continued to make arrangements for Basilio.

Basilio left again, and about half an hour later, Foreign Minister De Ruys and Chief of General Staff Niel appeared.

"Sit down!" Jerome Bonaparte stood up and invited De Ruys and Niel to sit on the sofa.

Immediately afterwards, Jérôme Bonaparte told De Ruys to ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to express support for the Kingdom of Sardinia's call for a joint multi-national investigation.

After De Ruys hesitated for a moment, he asked, "Your Majesty, will this affect our relationship with the Austrian Empire?"

Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and replied to De Luys, "No! I told you in advance

The Austrian Empire! "

"I know!" De Luys responded to Jérôme Bonaparte with a nod.

"Nière!" Jérôme Bonaparte turned his gaze to Nière, "You immediately order the Alpine Front to be ready to set off at any time!"

After Niel was stunned for a moment, he asked Jérôme Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, who are we going to fight?"

Jerome Bonaparte rolled his eyes at Niel and responded, "We won't fight anyone! Of course, if the Kingdom of Sardinia is unwilling to keep its promise, then you can also attack Sardinia. !」

"Your Majesty, what is the promise?" Niel asked Jerome Bonaparte again.

Jérôme Bonaparte told Nières and de Ruys that Cavour would cede Savoy and Nice in exchange for France's protection of Sardinia from the Austrian Empire.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured! If the Kingdom of Sardinia dares to break its promise, the French army will definitely let them know what regret means!" Niel assured Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Okay! That's all I have to say, you can go back to work!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Niel and De Ruys.

One day later, a spokesperson for the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the French Empire supports the multinational joint investigation proposed by the Kingdom of Sardinia.

As soon as this statement was made, the Austrian Empire's troops stationed in the border areas of the Kingdom of Sardinia took action, and a small-scale lone incident occurred on the border between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia.

In the following days, the nerves of the entire Kingdom of Sardinia were in a tense state with the provocations of the Austrian Empire again and again.

So Cavour found Jerome Bonaparte again and begged Jerome Bonaparte to come up with a countermeasure.
