Make France Great Again

Chapter 1024: Annexation of Savoy and Nice

Early the next morning, Victor Immanuel II and Queen Augusta left Milan under the escort of the Guards Cavalry troops sent by Franz Joseph himself, and then experienced several battles. After an hour's journey, we finally arrived at the border between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia.

"Your Majesty, please allow us not to accompany you and Her Majesty the Queen to continue moving forward!" Joseph Yelach responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Joseph Jelage with a slight smile.

Subsequently, Joseph Jeracci turned the dock towards Milan, while Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta continued to move forward.

Soon, Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta met the Sardinian general who sent them to the border last time.

After seeing Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta, General Sardinia quickly got off his horse and came to Jerome Bonaparte and Queen Augusta and said, "Your Majesty, Queen, you came back!"

"Yes!" Jerome Bonaparte, who was riding on the horse, nodded and responded to the Sardinian general.

Then, escorted by the Sardinian general, Jerome Bonaparte and Queen Augusta continued towards the nearby train station.

During this period, the Sardinian general politely asked Jerome Bonaparte whether the Austrian Empire would withdraw its troops in the near future.

Jérôme Bonaparte did not directly answer the Sardinian general's question, but chose to look around and avoid the Sardinian general's question in his own way.

Seeing that he could not get an answer from Jerome Bonaparte, the Sardinian general naturally understood what Jerome Bonaparte meant.

Therefore, after asking several times to no avail, the Sardinian general also wisely stopped asking too many questions on this issue, and instead exchanged other questions with Jerome Bonaparte.

The two parties walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the train station closest to the border area.

After entering the train station, General Sardinia personally ran to buy train tickets for Jerome Bonaparte and his wife, and then sent his adjutant and several soldiers to follow Jerome Bonaparte. The couple stayed by their side to protect their safety until Jerome Bonaparte and his wife arrived at the Turin Palace smoothly.

After everything was arranged, the Sardinian general said to Jerome Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, Queen, I want to return to the border to continue guarding!

Next, if you need anything, you can directly order my adjutant, and he will do his best to meet all your requirements! "

"You are interested!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded to the Sardinian general, and then responded to him, "When I return to Turin, I will definitely explain to Victor your achievements along the way!"

After hearing these words, General Sardinia had a hint of excitement in his eyes. The reason why he was so courteous was not just to make His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte more in front of His Majesty Victor Emmanuel. Say something nice so that his position can be promoted faster.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" the Sardinian general replied to Jerome Bonaparte excitedly.

Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta got on the train under the protection of their adjutants and several soldiers. The whistle sounded ten minutes after Jerome Bonaparte got on the train.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was sitting in an independent carriage, looked at the scenery that was constantly retreating, with an indescribable joy in his eyes.

After nearly a few months, Jérôme Bonaparte finally achieved his wish to "perform light work in the pit" on the issue of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Now we only need to tell Victor Immanuel II the news of Franz Joseph's withdrawal, and then hold a referendum on Savoy and Nice. Then Jerome Bonaparte will be in Sardinia Even if the journey to the Kingdom of Asia is completely over,

As for the reaction of the British Kingdom after the annexation of Savoy and Nice, that is a problem that will be faced in the next stage.

Just as Jérôme Bonaparte was thinking, the adjutant's voice reached Jérôme Bonaparte's ears, "Your Majesty, do you want some fruit?"

"No! No need!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied to the adjutant, shaking his head.

"Your Majesty the Queen, where are you!" the adjutant directed his gaze at the Queen.

"I don't need it either! Thank you!" Queen Augusta also replied politely.

"If you want to eat, you can just take it!" Jérôme Bonaparte pointed to the fruits on the plate that came with the train and said to them.

The adjutant and the soldiers also shook their heads and rejected Jérôme Bonaparte's suggestion.

The train ran like this for nearly several hours, and finally arrived in Turin that night.

After the steam train slowly approached Turin Railway Station, Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta stood up at the same time, ready to leave the train at any time.

When the train completely stopped on the platform, Jerome Bonaparte once again found another group of people approaching the carriage where Jerome Bonaparte was.

Install the latest version. 】

Jérôme Bonaparte took a closer look and saw that it was Victor Immanuel II, Ramamore and others who were approaching the train.

Jerome Bonaparte immediately understood that they had probably received a telegram from the border general, so they got the time when the train arrived at the station, and then specially greeted Jerome Bonaparte on the train platform.

Jérôme Bonaparte and Empress Augusta slowly walked off the train, and then Jérôme Bonaparte and Victor Immanuel II shook hands with each other.

"Welcome back to Turin!" Victor Immanuel II said to Jerome Bonaparte in a sincere tone.

Jérôme Bonaparte smiled slightly, nodded, and then introduced to Victor Immanuel II the adjutants and soldiers who were guarding their geese.

After seeing Victor Immanuel II, the adjutants and soldiers showed a look of fanaticism on their faces.

"You did a great job!" Victor Immanuel II praised them.

"Your Majesty, this is what we should do!" the adjutant said reservedly.

The soldiers also replied reservedly that this was their duty.

Then, Victor Immanuel II and others led Jérôme Bonaparte and Augusta to the Turin Palace in a carriage.

Here, Victor Emmanuel II held a relatively small banquet for Jérôme Bonaparte and his wife, but the composition of the party did not include a Lakeland banquet at all.

The servants at the banquet served the dishes to the table one by one in an orderly manner, and everyone at the banquet exchanged glasses, feeling very happy.

The entire banquet lasted for nearly two hours before it ended. After most of the ministers and nobles of the Kingdom of Sardinia left, Victor Immanuel II, whose face was slightly red, Said to Jerome Bonaparte, "Jerome, can you come with me?"

"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, and then followed Victor Immanuel II's footsteps towards one of the guest rooms in the palace.

Victor Emmanuel II, who entered the guest room and sat on the sofa, then asked Jérôme Bonaparte, "Tea or coffee!"

"Bring me a cup of tea!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied to Victor Immanuel II.

"Then I want a cup of coffee!" Victor Immanuel II said calmly.

After hearing this, the servants in the room quickly prepared tea and coffee for Jérôme Bonaparte and Victor Immanuel II.

After a while, black tea and coffee were brought to them by Jérôme Bonaparte and Victor Immanuel II.

Jérôme Bonaparte picked up the black tea and took a sip, then asked Victor Immanuel II, "Victor, what do you want me to do when you called me here?"

"Jerome, what was Franz Joseph's reply?" Victor Immanuel II asked Jerome Bonaparte with a serious expression.

Jérôme Bonaparte took another sip of tea, and then responded with a slightly nervous look in Victor Immanuel II's eyes, "Franz Joseph has followed my suggestion and withdrawn the investigation. !”

After hearing Jérôme Bonaparte's answer, Victor Emmanuel II's tense expression instantly relaxed, "Just revoke it! Just revoke it!"

Before Victor Yin-Manuel II could be happy for too long, Jérôme Bonaparte's next words instantly destroyed Victor Yin-Manuel II's finally happy mood. All.

"Victor, when are you going to start the referendums in Savoyard and Nice?" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Victor Emmanuel II calmly.

Victor Immanuel II's smile disappeared visibly, and his expression became serious again.

"This... will be held in the near future!" Victor Emmanuel II responded hesitantly to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Don't hold it anytime soon!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied firmly to Victor Immanuel II. “I think it would be just right to hold a referendum tomorrow!

how do you feel! "

Victor Emmanuel II responded tactfully to Jérôme Bonaparte, "The referendums in Savoyard and Nice will be held tomorrow... Isn't the time too hasty? "

"Rush? I don't think it's hasty!" Jérôme Bonaparte shook his head and said to Victor Immanuel II.

"Then...just listen to you!" Victor Emmanuel II had no choice but to agree to Jérôme Bonaparte's suggestion.

After Jérôme Bonaparte left, Victor Inmanuel II secretly summoned Ramamore and Cavour. Under Cavour's persuasion, Victor Inman Newer II eventually abandoned Savoy and Nice.

The next morning, with a telegram from Turin, the referendums in Savoyard and Nice were in full swing.
