Make France Great Again - Chapter 861
“Minister Lu Yinsi, please sit down!”
Jerome Bonaparte invited Minister de Luiens to sit opposite him.
De Luyens sat down and asked Jerome Bonaparte what his orders were.
“You should read the diplomatic documents from the Far East!” Jerome Bonaparte said slowly to De Lu Yins.
“Yes! Your Majesty!” De Lu Yinsi replied briefly.
“I want to hear your opinion?” Jerome Bonaparte asked De Luyens again.
After a moment of silence, De Luyens replied to Jerome Bonaparte: “Your Majesty, I think the French Empire should end the transaction with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom as soon as possible!”
“What is your reason for making this judgment?” Jerome Bonaparte asked De Luyens.
“Your Majesty!” De Lu Yinsi explained word by word: “Based on the interests of the French Empire, a colonial kingdom is far easier to control than a local emerging force.
Especially for a colonial dynasty at the end, its purpose is to extend its rule.
In order to continue their rule, they are willing to communicate and communicate with all countries and forces that can maintain their rule, and agree to all their conditions.
And it is impossible for an emerging local force to do this, and they will do everything possible to break free from the shackles.
Once they break free, all our interests in the Far East may be lost.
And as far as the content of the current document is concerned, there are also major problems within the rebel government. Their ministers control the army and the government, while their king controls the religious beliefs of the entire army.
Once the two kill each other, the rebel government will suffer heavy losses and even face the possibility of disintegration!
So I do not recommend that the French Empire spend its energy on a government that is doomed to disobedience and will most likely fall apart! ”
Jerome Bonaparte listened quietly to De Luyens’ speech, and when De Luyens stopped, Jerome Bonaparte opened his mouth and said to De Luyins: “This is all you have. Reason?”
“Yes! Your Majesty!” De Luyens replied to Jerome Bonaparte, and then replied in a firm tone: “Your Majesty, I can be sure! The rebel government can’t give us what we want. thing!”
“Minister De Lu Yins, you are right!” Jerome Bonaparte nodded and admitted De Lu Yins, and then changed the subject and said to De Lu Yins, “However, you seem to have forgotten one thing. !”
“What’s the matter?” De Lu Yins asked Jerome Bonaparte curiously.
“A powerful emerging dynasty is indeed not in the interests of the French Empire, but it is even more incompatible with the interests of the British Kingdom!” Jerome Bonaparte said to De Lu Yins with a smile.
De Lu Yins was stunned for a few seconds, and instantly understood what Jerome Bonaparte meant, “Your Majesty, do you mean that the emerging dynasty might threaten the interests of the British Kingdom?”
“That’s right!” Jerome Bonaparte nodded and said to De Lu Yins, “I have studied that place, and the dynasties there have a characteristic.
That is, in the first few decades before the founding of the country, the rulers of successive dynasties would choose to expand abroad.
And the direction of their expansion is nothing more than to expand south or west.
Once they choose to expand southward, they will inevitably confront Britain. ”
“Your Majesty, I’m afraid their army will have a hard time defeating Britain!” De Lu Yinsi reminded in a low voice.
“If you can’t win now, it doesn’t mean you won’t be able to win in the future!” Jerome Bonaparte responded to De Lu Yins with a sullen expression: “Furthermore, how many troops can Britain put into the Far East! 10,000, 20,000 or 30,000, these people are like a drop of water pouring into a vast ocean for a country with a population of 30 million.
As long as they can achieve what they did in Afghanistan (10,000 British troops were wiped out in Afghanistan), then they can not fear any threat from Britain.
Unless Britain can dedicate the whole country to declare war on it, but once the British kingdom mobilizes the strength of the whole country and conducts a vigorous expedition, they will face enormous economic pressure

Because the supplies of the Far East were not destined to sustain the army for a long time, as long as their soldiers could be mobilized as we did in the Revolution (1793), the British mobilizers were doomed to fail. ”
“However, it’s hard for them to be like what we used to be!” De Lu Yins responded to Jerome Bonaparte in a low voice.
“Indeed! Let them be like us, I’ll put it another way!
As long as their army is like that of the Ottoman Empire, the British expeditionary army will be hit hard! “Jérôme Bonaparte said to De Lu Yins in a firm tone, “A new dynasty, no matter how bad it is, it can’t be worse than the Ottoman Empire!” ”
De Luyens nodded in agreement with Jerome Bonaparte’s statement, and then continued: “Your Majesty, what about our interests in the Far East?”
“I ask you, if the emerging dynasty wants to rise and industrialize like us, does it need money!” Jerome Bonaparte asked De Lu Yinsdao.
“Of course!” De Lu Yinsi replied without hesitation.
“Since they need money, and we happen to have money, we can lend them money!” Jerome Bonaparte said to De Luyens briskly, “They can use this money to buy us We hire our engineers for old equipment, and we can use the money to replace new machines.
So we still have to make money!
There is also the army, if they want to have the ability to protect themselves, they must build a strong army like us!
Which country in the whole of Europe is more powerful than our French Empire, so they will only choose the weapons and people of our French Empire in the end, and we can make a lot of money.
…As for the navy, if they want to strengthen the autonomy of national defense, they must also buy warships!
We just need to show more sincerity (bribes) and they will choose to buy our warships. ”
“But… can they really recognize this?” De Lu Yins said to Jerome Bonaparte in a slightly questioning tone.
“If you fall behind, you will be beaten! This is the same truth since ancient times, and they are not fools! Naturally they know this truth, so change is inevitable. It’s just that the government in power now is a colonial government, similar to what Britain did in India. , so they do everything possible to limit their troops.
Make it impossible to fight against them, and at the same time, for some people who are fighting illegally, they also adopt a consistent method of killing. “Jérôme Bonaparte explained to De Luyens, “If you say a normal dynasty, it won’t be like them!”
They will face foreign things with a more open attitude than the colonial regime!
Don’t be afraid of the Han people who live in the vast land over there, and their development will also be faster than the Ottoman Empire.
In fact, it is roughly between the Ottomans and Russia.
If a large Ottoman Empire appears in Britain, it is difficult to use a large army, but it threatens the interests of the British Kingdom in India. Will the British Kingdom always be on guard against them?
Originally a Russian Empire was enough to give Britain a headache!
If you add a trumpet Russia, will Britain still have the energy to deal with European affairs? ”
“It’s really hard to interfere in European affairs!” De Luyens replied to Jerome Bonaparte.
The importance of India to the Kingdom of Britain ranks ahead of Europe. If something happens to India, I don’t know how many people in Britain will face bankruptcy.
“At that time, we will be able to calmly integrate Europe, and let the whole of Europe unite under the banner of France!” Jerome Bonaparte persuaded De Luyins (suddenly) and said (you): “You have to remember that we, France, have always been a land-based country, and seeking overseas interests is not the first priority.
If one day we break with Britain, all our overseas interests will be lost as they were. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Therefore, seeking the unification of the whole of Europe is the most important thing we should do!
Once we can unite all of Europe under our banner, and thus conquer the colonies of the British Kingdom, all will be ours! ”
At this time, De Lu Yinsi had a feeling of blood boiling.
Although he knew that the possibility of Jerome Bonaparte’s words being realized was very slim, he was willing to work hard for this slim hope.
“I understand!” De Lu Yins nodded solemnly to Jerome Bonaparte, “I will order the ambassador to France to adjust the diplomatic direction as soon as possible!”
“Yeah!” Jerome Bonaparte showed a satisfied smile, trying to convince De Lu Yins was really not an easy task.
“Your Majesty, I have a question for you!” De Luyens said to Jerome Bonaparte again.
“What’s the problem? Tell me!” asked Jerome Bonaparte.
“Where did you get the knowledge about the Eastern Empire?” De Lu Yins looked at Jerome Bonaparte curiously.
After thinking for a moment, Jerome Bonaparte said to De Lu Yins, “I met a wise man from the Eastern Empire before, and I got this information from his mouth.”
“I see!” De Luyens nodded in response to Jerome Bonaparte, but in his heart he didn’t believe Jerome Bonaparte’s words at all.
Since the emperor himself didn’t want to tell him the truth, De Lu Yinsi could only acquiesce that it was God’s credit.
After De Lu Yins left, Jerome Bonaparte breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to himself, “The lake is finally over!”
