Make France Great Again

Chapter 130 The Dust Settled

June 13, 1849, 3 p.m.

Under the "wise" leadership of President Jérôme Bonaparte and the "excellent" command of General Changarnier, Ludru Rolland and his party were quickly arrested and brought to justice.

This time, Ludwig Rolland had no chance to escape to the Rijksmuseum, and then went to London as a political exile.

Imprisoned by rough soldiers, he had no choice but to await trial.

On the other hand, the Party of Order and Jerome Bonaparte, who were the victors, were in high spirits.

For the Party of Order, the National Assembly after the Mountain Party has been swept away will completely become a "Committee of Public Security" that belongs only to them.

For Jerome Bonaparte, the seemingly huge Party of Order became a paper tiger after the stubborn Montagne and Republicans were wiped out.

The Party of Order with the Montagne and the Republicans as enemies will not fall apart because of the issue of interests, but without these two parties, the secondary contradiction will become the main contradiction.

Jerome Bonaparte only needs to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Accompanied by Changarnier, Jerome Bonaparte on a white horse inspected the regular army and the National Guard again.

The soldiers lined up in square formations to wait for the inspection by President Jerome Bonaparte and Commander Changarnier. Every time Jerome Bonaparte arrived at a square formation, the commander of the square formation would order their soldiers to shout: "Napoleon Napoleon! Long live!"

This is the slogan used by General Changarnier and Jérôme Bonaparte after discussions to identify loyalists. Any army that shouts the slogan "Long live Napoleon" is regarded as a loyalist.

Sure enough, when Jerome Bonaparte and Changarnier reviewed the Eighth, Ninth, and Twelfth Army Corps of the National Guard, the officers of the Eighth, Ninth, and Twelfth Army Corps shouted: " Long live the Republic!"

General Changarnier gestured to the adjutant next to him, and the adjutant who received Changarnier's instructions nodded to express his understanding. He had secretly recorded the three legions, and after the military parade was over, they would ask Prime Minister Barrow and Liueli The minister signed the document disbanding the three legions, and then quickly disbanded the three legions.

The poor three commanders who are in charge of the command of the legion don't know the fate they are about to suffer.

After all the troops were inspected, Jerome Bonaparte went to the Ministry of the Interior under the mutual escort of the army dragoons.

Minister of the Interior, Leon Fuchs, led the directors of the Ministry of the Interior to greet him in person.

"Mr. President!" Leon Foch said to Jerome Bonaparte with a flattering expression.

"Minister Fushi, where are the traitor Ledoy Roland and his accomplices being held now!" Jerome Bonaparte handed the white horse to the soldiers beside him and patted the dust off his body.

"Report to the President, Ludru Roland and the others are being held in the prison of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!" Leon Fushi replied.

"I want to meet him! Is it possible?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Léon Foch.

"Of course! Your Excellency, please follow me!" Leon Fuchs said as he led Jerome Bonaparte to the prison of the Police Department under the Ministry of the Interior.

In this cellar-like prison, Jerome Bonaparte met Ludru Rolland again.

At this time, Ludelu Roland was no longer the same as before. His body was covered in dust, and there was a bruise on his forehead, as if he had been beaten by someone.

Jerome Bonaparte speculated that it might be that Ludwig Rolland was beaten up by the rough Qiu Ba when he resisted.

In just one day, the former member of parliament became a prisoner, which is ironic for France, which claims to be a beacon of democracy.

"Mr. Ludru Roland, it's only been a day. How did you become like this?" Jerome Bonaparte outside the prison looked at Ludru Roland in feigned surprise.

"Jerome Bonaparte!" Ludwig Rolland looked up at him, and shouted, "Don't be complacent for too long! Before long, you will become like me! They won't let go Pass yours!"

"Mr. Roland!" Jerome Bonaparte restrained his surprise and turned to a sarcastic expression and said, "I will not want to overthrow the Republic like you, I respect the authority of the National Assembly, and I am willing to serve the National Assembly! The colleagues of the Party of Order are my closest allies, how could they be my enemies?"

"Yes! You are just a puppet supported by them, a thief who squanders the afterglow of a great man! It's too late for them to thank you!" Ludru Roland, who was basically in a state of abandonment, laughed as if possessed: "History will not let you go! The French people will definitely recognize your ugly face!"

"The people?" Jerome Bonaparte sneered disdainfully: "What the people know does not depend on themselves, but on what we want them to know. Which history do you mean? version?"

"You ambitious man! Sooner or later, you will destroy the entire Republic!" Ledru Roland pointed at Jerome Bonaparte and said angrily.

"Mr. Roland! On the contrary, I will protect this beautiful republic!" Jerome Bonaparte responded, and added in his heart: The premise is that this republic can become an empire!

Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte asked again: "Mr. Roland, don't you want to know your ending?"

Ludelu Roland in the cell sneered disdainfully: "It's nothing more than death!"

"No, no, no!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and said to Ledru Rolland: "You will not die! After all, it is a shame for the National Assembly to sentence several members to death. They were also elected by the workers. Let me tell you! You will be exiled to the South American colonies as political prisoners, and I hope your theory can teach those indigenous people to learn truth, goodness and beauty.”

In the unspoken rules of exile in France, those who are famous and do not cause too much harm to France, France will send them out of France, whether to go to Brussels or London to let them decide, and the second-class political criminals will be exiled to Albania The colonies of Giul, the last political criminals were exiled to French Guiana.

If the crimes of the first two levels are amnesty, they may return to France.

The last level of political criminals represents that the French government does not even want to see him, and will never have the right to be amnesty.

"I will witness your destruction there with my own eyes!" Ludru Roland gritted his teeth and said every word.

"Mr. Roland, you may not be able to wait for that day! I wish you a happy stay in South America!" Jerome Bonaparte politely bowed to Ledru Roland and left.

Before leaving the Prison of the Ministry of the Interior, Jérôme Bonaparte once again told Leon Fauci not to let Ledru-Roland commit suicide, he must wait until the trial of the judicial system is over, and he will be detained in Ledru-Roland In the meantime, don't let him meet anyone.

Léon Foch assured Jerome Bonaparte that he would live up to his expectations.

Jerome Bonaparte remounted his horse and returned to the Elysee Palace.

On June 14, as soon as the news of Ludru-Roland's arrest came out, many congressmen who sympathized with Ludru-Roland went to the Elysee Palace to visit him. Without exception, they pleaded with Jerome Bonaparte and hoped that he could pardon Ludru Rolland.

Jérôme Bonaparte pretended to be entangled for a long time at first, and then finally "couldn't stand up" to the MP's entreaty, and tactfully assured the MP who came to intercede that he would do his best to help MP Ludru Roland to avoid the death penalty, but capital punishment can Exemption, living crime is inevitable.

During the conversation with the councilors, Jerome Bonaparte clearly felt that some councilors seemed to want to move closer to the Elysee Palace.

"Elysee Palace School" is no longer an empty shell with only a name.

7pm on the 14th.

After the last ray of dawn disappears on the horizon, night falls.

Minister of War Liueli took a carriage to the Elysee Palace to attend the appointment. The carriage drove straight into the gate of the Elysee Palace, and Liueli got off.

"Welcome, Mr. Count Liueli!" Conrobert, who was in charge of welcoming Liueli, called his title.

"Yeah!" Liu Eli nodded slightly.

Led by Conrobel, Liueli came to the dinner restaurant.

"Mr. President is inside!" Conrobel said, pointing to a door at the end.

Liu Elli walked to the gate, and the two servants in charge of guarding the gate quickly opened the gate when they saw Liu Elli's arrival.

After Liueli entered the room, the door closed again.

President Jerome Bonaparte was sitting dignifiedly at the main table. Seeing Liueli's arrival, he slightly nodded and invited, "Sit down!"

"Mr. President, good morning!" Liueli sat down.

"Red wine or brandy!" Jerome Bonaparte asked again.

Liueli thought for a moment and then said, "Brandy!"

Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand, and the servant in charge quickly poured a glass of brandy for Liueli and Jerome Bonaparte.

"Let's begin!" Jerome Bonaparte said to the servant.

The servant who received the order quickly served Jerome Bonaparte and Liueli. Since the dinner was served in French style, all the dishes were served at once.

Therefore, Jerome Bonaparte and Liueli's dining tables are full of food, and sturgeon caviar, foie gras and snails are naturally indispensable.

Looking at the steaming and charmingly fragrant food in front of him, Liueli was a little puzzled, what did the president mean by calling him here?

Thinking of this, Liueli felt a little more worried.

I hope the president will not let him do something beyond his power.

"Mr. Minister!" Jerome Bonaparte raised his glass to signal.

Liueli quickly raised his glass and said, "Mr. President!"

Jérôme Bonaparte took a sip of his wine and said to Minister Liueli half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Mr. Minister, what do you think of the Alpine Front Army?"
