Morny's words aroused the desire for money among ministers who had already purchased public works bonds. They hoped that the bonds in their hands would continue to appreciate in value.
"And..." Morny paused and turned his gaze to the Minister of War Regno.
Minister Renault knew that now it was his turn to take action, and he also stood up and placed two pieces of information in front of Jerome Bonaparte and Opal respectively.
Prime Minister Opal, who had only read half of the Morny material, saw the material placed on the table by General Renault. The cover of the material clearly read "Railway and Military Modernization".
Prime Minister Opal put down the information on Morny and turned to study the information on Regno. In his heart, the military was more important than the government.
Since the content of the information was relatively small, General Opple quickly finished reading it, and Jérôme Bonaparte, who already knew the content, also finished reading it in a hurry.
"Comrades, we are going through a change!" General Regno said passionately: "What brings us this change is not other things, but the railway! I once had a conversation with the Austrian army near Rome. I was told that their Marshal Radetzky used the railway to move quickly in Lombardy, thus defeating the slow-moving Sardinian dynasty in one fell swoop! In this regard, we in France cannot lag behind. The mobility of the railway will allow us to Reach the designated location in a faster time! Such a speed is unimaginable during the emperor's time..."
General Renault used the excuse that the railway helped the army to mobilize quickly, and established in-depth exchanges between the army and the railway commission. It would be best if the army and the railway commission could send personnel to each other's departments.
Since the administrative level of the Railway Commission could not be equal to that of the War Department, both parties faced an embarrassing problem of administrative ownership. A scholarly military bureaucrat who came to exchange and learn was half a head higher than the leaders of the sub-bureaus under the Commission. This caused the question of who would command. Whose embarrassing question.
"We urgently hope that the Railway Commission can form an independent department so that it can communicate and learn from each other on an equal footing with the War Department! The situation we are facing cannot be taken lightly!" General Renault said firmly.
After the Department of Public Works and the Department of War, Bife of the Department of Agriculture and Commerce also stated that the telegraph lines were also adjusted along the railroad...
Based on both financial and strategic needs, Prime Minister Opal finally made up his mind after thinking for a long time.
"Minister Morny, do you have confidence in the establishment of the Ministry of Railways? Will it affect the entire Ministry of Public Works!" Prime Minister Opur finally asked Morny.
"Mr. Prime Minister, please rest assured that there will be no problem in cutting off the Railway Commission from the Ministry of Public Works!" Morny assured Opple.
In fact, he couldn't tell whether there would be any problems. After all, the bonds raised in half a year had been tied to the interests of some people in the Department of Public Works. It was impossible to expect them not to struggle to the death. He could only Can do their best to reduce turmoil.
"In that case, then I agree with your proposal to split the Railway Commission!" Prime Minister Opple turned his attention to Jérôme Bonaparte again: "Your Excellency, what do you think?"
"I think it's feasible!" Jérôme Bonaparte, the founder of the Cutting Railway Commission plan, certainly agreed with Opple's opinion.
"So who will be the new Minister of Railways?" Prime Minister Opur asked a question that made ministers salivate. Without the constraints within the Ministry of Public Works, the Ministry of Railways will surely soar.
This is equivalent to a mouse lying in a rice warehouse full of rice. Just stealing a little bit can make them a lot of money.
"Whoever raised this question should be responsible for it!" Jérôme Bonaparte suggested.
Jérôme Bonaparte's words dispelled the ministers' ambition to become the Minister of Railways.
"That's fine! Whoever proposes it is responsible!" Prime Minister Opur smiled and nodded: "Minister Morny, I'm afraid you have to work hard for a while. The Ministry of Railways is not so easy to set up!"
"For France, I have no obligation to refuse!" Morny clenched his fists and said with emotion.
"During this period, you will continue to serve as Minister of Public Works until the Ministry of Railways is fully completed!" Prime Minister Opal very considerately extended the time for leaving office.
"Yes! Mr. Prime Minister!" Morny replied.
After the first work of the Ministry of Railways was completed, there were no big issues worth talking about, other than the appropriation of the Ministry of Finance, the shipbuilding plan of the Admiralty and the follow-up expenses of the Roman Republic by the War Department.
In other words, Jérôme Bonaparte did not want to bring all the issues to the table at once, which would lead to a strike by Prime Minister Opal.
scare!
Jérôme Bonaparte knew very well that the prime minister he appointed was just a guy who wanted to spend his term in an even and stable manner. Too much turmoil would likely lead to his retreat.
At the end of the meeting, War Minister Regno once again proposed a resolution to the cabinet meeting.
"Your Excellency, President!, I think we should strengthen the soldiers' sense of honor for the army, so that more people are willing to join the army!" War Minister Reño suggested in a roundabout way.
The French army is a group of scum and scum. Most of them are people who join the army for the sake of 1300-1500 francs, so they have no so-called honor.
[Although France officially has a universal military service system, in reality it is still a substitute service system. The urban bourgeoisie only needs to bite the bullet and spend 3,000 francs to have others perform military service on their behalf. Therefore, the vast majority of people who serve in the military come to the countryside. 】
However, there are still some benefits to properly publicizing Glory. If it really attracts a group of fools... No, it is young people who care about the country and join the army to serve France. This is undoubtedly a welcome result.
"What is your plan?" Prime Minister Opal asked Reinio directly.
"We plan to transfer the Roman Expeditionary Force stationed in Lyon to Paris, and the President and the Prime Minister will personally review it!" Minister Regno said to Prime Minister Opul.
Reviewing the army is undoubtedly the best time to enhance his influence. Regno does not believe that Prime Minister Opal does not want to enhance his prestige.
"How many people do you want to dispatch?" Prime Minister Opal asked General Renault again, and his tone seemed to mean more than this.
"Mr. Prime Minister, I think the number of people participating in the military parade should be about 5,000!" Regno responded to Prime Minister Opal without hesitation.
"5,000 people? This means that troops will be transferred from Paris!" Prime Minister Opul said to General Renault word by word.
Faced with the almost oppressive words of Prime Minister Opul, General Regno showed a response that was neither humble nor condescending: "Every army in Paris should be under the control of the government, and the government has the right to decide their whereabouts!"
"I agree with Minister Renault's point of view. Some of the troops in Paris have also moved their homes!" Jerome Bonaparte intervened to help Minister Renault share the pressure.
Opple concluded by looking at Minister Regno, then at Jérôme Bonaparte, and said with a long sigh: "I agree with your suggestion in principle, but I hope that you can agree with Changarnier on this matter." Talk about it, the armies of Paris are under his command!”
"Of course!" Minister Renault nodded and said: "I will inform General Changarnier after the meeting!"
"Yes!" Prime Minister Opal nodded and acquiesced to General Renault's request for a military parade.
The meeting ended with Prime Minister Opul's concluding speech, and Jérôme Bonaparte and Minister Regno took a carriage to the Elysee Palace.
Jérôme Bonaparte got off the car and immediately said to Pessini who came to greet him: "Mr. Pessini, please go to the residence of General Changarnier and tell him that I have something important to see him!"
"Yes!" Pesini took the white horse handed over by the guard and rode to Changarnier's residence to inform.
"Let's go!" Jérôme Bonaparte motioned to Minister Renault to go to the reception room.
The two waited in the reception room for about an hour, and the door of the reception room slowly opened.
Changarnier, who had gray hair on his temples, wrinkles on his face, and an old expression, came to Jérôme Bonaparte under the leadership of Pesini.
"Your Excellency, President!" Changarnier lowered his proud head to greet Jérôme Bonaparte. Then he saw Minister Renault taking a bath and returned to his original expression: "Minister Renault!"
After Jérôme Bonaparte suddenly dismissed Odilon Barrot on October 20, Changarnier, who knew he had lost his allies, moved closer to the Elysée Palace.
[Changarnier has an arrogant character, and his relationship with the Party of Order has always been in a bad state. 】
With the connivance of Jérôme Bonaparte, he had already regarded himself as a royalist and a protector of the president. With his dual identity, Changarnier seemed to have some wishful thinking that Jérôme Bonaparte would accept him.
"Commander Changarnier, please take a seat." Jérôme Bonaparte smiled at Changarnier and stretched out his hand to invite Changarnier to sit down.
Before Changarnier is completely isolated, goodwill should be released to confuse Changarnier.
After Changarnier took his seat, he still could not change his arrogant face as the "presidential protector" and asked in a condescending manner: "Your Excellency, why do you want to see me?"
"That's it..." Jérôme Bonaparte told Changarnier the contents of the cabinet meeting.
"A team of 5,000 people?" Changarnier looked at Minister Renault suspiciously.
"Yes, 5,000 people!" Minister Renault replied.
"5,000 people are stationed in Paris, which means that 5,000 people will also leave. I'm right!" Changarnier suddenly had an inexplicable meaning in his tone.
