Make France Great Again

Chapter 167 Bonaparte Cabinet

Jerome Bonaparte's sudden attack made Odilon Barro unable to react for a while. He thought it was just an ordinary meeting, and he never expected such an ending.

In fact, as early as a few days before the opening of the Parliament, Odi Lombaro heard certain rumors that Jerome Bonaparte might depose him.

At first he just didn't think so, but as more and more congressmen hinted at Odilon Barrow, Odilon Barrow felt a little vigilant in his heart. However, without the support of the parliament, he also did not dare to tear himself apart with Jerome Bonaparte, and he was also full of confidence in himself. He believed that once he was deposed, Jerome Bonaparte would not be able to find a way to organize The head of the cabinet, during the five days after the opening of the parliament, he wooed the members of the party of Order while guarding against Jerome Bonaparte.

As time went on, Odilon Barro's vigilance became less and less, and there were indications that Jérôme Bonaparte did not seem to have any intention of deposing him.

Unexpectedly, Jerome Bonaparte's attack was completed so quickly that his mind was still in a state of chaos.

"Mr. President, what is wrong with me?" Odi Lombarro's eyes were dull, and a mechanical question came from his mouth. At this time, he did not look like an eloquent speaker in the parliament. A woman who was hurt by a scumbag.

"Mr. Barrow! Since you became Prime Minister, you have been working diligently and conscientiously in organizing the work of the cabinet every day." Jerome Bonaparte first praised Odilon Barrow's work attitude: "So I will Award you the Medal of Honor of the Grande Legion in recognition of your contribution to France during this period."

After finishing speaking, Jérôme Bonaparte turned around and put the Grande Legion Honor Medal on the table flat on his right hand, then turned around and stood in front of Odilon Barro, and personally took the Grande Legion Honor Medal for Odilon Barro.

Odilon Barrot didn't say a word during the whole process, he was like a puppet who had lost his soul and was still being played by Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who hung the Legion of Honor on Odilonbarro's chest, applauded Odilonbarro himself.

"Mr. President, why did you dismiss me?" Odilon Barro repeated what he said before. This time, from his tone, Jerome Bonaparte could clearly feel Odilon Barro's inner annoyance.

Jerome Bonaparte didn't care about Odilon Barro's inner feelings at the moment. A politician without power is like a toothless tiger, no...even a tiger will bark twice, and a politician will only smash Swallow his teeth, any gaffe means complete failure, not to mention other radical behaviors, he believes that Odilon Barro will not do unwise actions, it is normal for politicians to have ups and downs thing.

Jerome Bonaparte responded calmly to Odilon Barrow: "Prime Minister Barrow... No, I think I should call you Mr. Barrow, you should understand why I want to be dismissed!"

Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte sighed, shook his head and said, "Mr. Barrow, I thought we would be a good pair! I didn't expect you to do such a thing!"

"Stop trying to hide it!" Odilon Barro growled, "You didn't want me to be Prime Minister from the very beginning, did you! You despicable careerist! Your purpose is just to monopolize power. , everything you said is just your despicable excuse!"

Jerome Bonaparte still looked at Odi Lombaro with a smile on his face. Odi Lombarro's gaffe was something he did not expect. He thought that everyone would be like that old fox Thiers, whether it was Whether he gains power or loses power, he maintains a calm expression.

"Mr. Barrow, you can say whatever you want!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a regretful expression: "I do have the idea of ​​monopolizing power, but I will still choose to respect the National Assembly!"

"Respect for the National Assembly?" Odilon Barro laughed impatiently,

He really didn't expect that someone would have the audacity to say respect for the National Assembly.

Jerome Bonaparte watched Odi Lombarro quietly until his laughter ended, and Jerome Bonaparte responded in a stern tone: "Mr. Question, consulted those MPs who stayed in Paris. Guess what they said?"

"What's the matter?" Odilon Barrow was also curious about his colleagues in the Party of Order.

"He can object to me deposing you!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Odi Lombaro.

Odi Lombaro was stunned for a moment, and then a look of relief appeared on his face.

In the next second, Jerome Bonaparte shattered Odi Lombaro's comfort with cold words: "Their objections are nothing more than verbal shouting! If they really don't want to see you step down, That's not what it is now! As I said, I respect the opinions of the National Assembly, but I don't respect the opinions of fools!"

Odi Lombaro's gratified expression disappeared without a trace in an instant.

yes! If the members of the party support him with a strong attitude, then he will not be removed. The emperor's nephew is not afraid of a group of fools.

"Your Excellency President, you won! We all underestimated you!" Odilon Barro showed a downcast smile: "I, Thiers, and Moret are all of them. The power we gave the President back then was too great! "

"Mr. Barrow, didn't you have any selfishness at the beginning?" Jerome Bonaparte asked: "Who gave the president such great power? It can't be me! In the end, you just want to It's all about re-establishing a king!"

"That's right!" Odi Lombarro frankly admitted his original thoughts: "If we had no selfish intentions, you would not have taken the position!"

For Odilon Barrow, he has already lost this duel, but he will not keep losing, and he will come back sooner or later.

In the French political arena, the change of the prime minister or the prime minister is too frequent, which has long been commonplace.

"Mr. Barrow, if everyone had no selfish intentions, would you still split? Would you still choose to welcome back to Orleans?" Jérôme Bonaparte mercilessly exposed Odilon Barrow's remaining luck. .

If the Orleanists can really unite with sincerity, the Republicans and other parties will be crushed by them and unable to move.

"Mr. President, I would like to take the liberty of asking, who will take my seat next?" Odilon Barro asked.

According to what he knew about Thiers and Morel, the two of them would never enter the cabinet.

At the beginning, if they wanted to, they could have served as the prime minister of the cabinet.

It is equally impossible for the Duke of Broy to join the Bonapartists. [Odilon Barrow didn't know, because under the influence of Count Chambord, the Duke of Broy was already considering joining the Bonaparte faction. 】

Only the Orleanists remained.

Jerome Bonaparte was silent for a moment, and then spoke the name of the prime minister: "I will appoint Count Opper as the prime minister!"

"Count Haupel?" Jerome Bonaparte's answer made Odilon Barro not believe his ears: "That reckless man who only knows how to fight? My successor?"

"That's right! It's him!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and responded to Odi Lombaro.

Odilon Barrow once again showed a hint of self-mockery. He did not expect that his successor would be such a person.

"Mr. President, you are going to use the Earl Haupt as your marionette, right?" Odilon Barro looked at Jerome Bonaparte slowly: "A soldier and an imitator are really a wonderful pair. The combination!"

Of course Jerome Bonaparte would not admit his own thoughts. He humbly said to Odi Lombaro: "I will respect the choice of Earl Opel, just like I respected you at the beginning!"

Odi Lombaro obviously couldn't believe that Jérôme Bonaparte really respected Opal.

Since Earl Opal is willing to serve as Prime Minister, it means that he has voluntarily become Jerome Bonaparte's marionette, and the lost Odilon Baro is still likely to meddle in his own business.

"Mr. President, after I leave office, the cabinet members must also be dismissed!" Odi Lombarro calmed down and asked Jerome Bonaparte in a calm tone.

"Except for a few leaders with money, I will replace most of the ministers!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Odi Lombaro with a nod, and then added: "After you leave office , your brother Ferdinand Barrow will be Minister of the Interior!"

"That fellow Ferdinand was one of yours from the very beginning, right!" Odi Lombaro smiled wryly. He had already heard about his useless younger brother joining the Bonapartist faction, but he had no time to confirm it. .

Jerome Bonaparte nodded and told Odilon Barro the ins and outs: "Mr. Ferdinand joined us in June this year and is willing to fight with us!"

"Alas!" Odilon Barro sighed again. His elder brother is a Republican, his younger brother is a Bonapartist, and he is an Orleanist. The good family has become what it is now: "Mr. President, what are you going to do?" It's time to announce the news of my dismissal!"

Jerome Bonaparte glanced at his pocket watch, the time was 9:30: "I will announce your replacement in half an hour!"

"Your actions are really quick! I deserve to lose!" Odi Lombaro gave Jerome Bonaparte a look of approval.

"By the way, there is one more thing! Mr. Barrow, you should be careful of Mr. Thiers! How ambitious is he?" Jérôme Bonaparte "reminded" Thiers, who had the intention of burying mines.

"I know!"
