"General Feldbaugh, I hope you and your army will be careful when using it!
Prevent it from being acquired by some countries that have hostile relations with France!"
Jérôme Bonaparte hinted to Louis Feldbourg to prevent the Mauser rifles from being captured by the natives and falling into the hands of the British Empire.
Today, the relationship between the French Empire and the British Kingdom is far less than that during the Crimean War, when Jerome Bonaparte repeatedly annexed European territories (especially Savoy and Nice).
The behavior has successfully aroused dissatisfaction within and outside the British Kingdom.
If Britain knew that Jérôme Bonaparte was secretly stepping up research on new weapons, the persecuted British people would not care whether Mauser rifle bullets could cross the ocean and reach Britain. They would only destroy the French Empire.
This act was seen as a prelude to France's imminent invasion of Britain.
At that time, in order to win the support of voters in their jurisdiction, politicians who were swayed by fanatical public opinion naturally chose to obey public opinion, thus intensifying surveillance on the French Empire.
The British Navy will also take this opportunity to vigorously promote the "French Threat Theory" to ask for more shipbuilding funds from the cabinet.
Jerome Bonaparte did not want his every move to be closely monitored by Britain in the next few years, which would be detrimental to his actions in Europe.
Therefore, he must pretend to be as harmless as possible, so as to paralyze the British Kingdom.
Louis Feldbub naturally understood that the "enemy country" mentioned by Jérôme Bonaparte refers to the Kingdom of Britain, which is across the sea from France.
Louis Feldbaugh assured Jérôme Bonaparte with understanding, “Your Majesty, please rest assured!
I will engrave the corresponding number on each rifle and closely monitor the flow of rifles!
No rifle will fall into the hands of a hostile country!"
"General Feldbou, I hope you will not betray my trust in you!" Jérôme Bonaparte reached out and patted the back of Louis Feldbou's hand and said sincerely.
Later, Jérôme Bonaparte casually mentioned some information about the Chassebo machine gun.
After Louis Feldb heard that the "Chasebo Machine Gun" could fire more than 200 rounds per minute, his hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and his throat swallowed unconsciously.
Feldb, who has been in the military for a long time, deeply understands that the rate of fire of weapons is a key factor restricting the combat effectiveness of an army.
If the "Chasebol Machine Gun" can really reach the level mentioned by the emperor, then the French army will inevitably carry out a series of reforms around the "Chasebol Machine Gun".
Feldb has not yet received news of large-scale reforms in the army, which means that the "Xia Saibo machine gun" has not yet been included in the ranks of equipment.
Feldb analyzed that either the General Staff has not yet developed a system suitable for the "Shasebo machine gun" and "Mauser rifle", or the "Shasebo machine gun" has not reached the ideal state.
Therefore, adhering to the spirit of hearing is believing and seeing is believing, Louis Feldb decided to go and see the "Chasebol Machine Gun" in person.
If the "Chassebo machine guns" were really what the emperor said, Louis Feldbub would definitely buy a few of them.
For the Senegalese colonial army, which had only one reinforced regiment, sufficient firepower was the only way for them to defeat their opponents.
Louis Feldbeau immediately asked Jérôme Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, can I have the honor to visit the "Chasebol Machine Gun" up close!"
"The "Xia Saibo Machine Gun" has not yet been put into mass production, and only a few of them are still being tested in the park of Norinco!
If you really want to take a look, I can take the time to go to the park with you!" Jérôme Bonaparte said kindly to Louis Feldbe.
Hearing that the emperor was willing to take time out of his busy schedule to accompany him to the park, Louis Feldbaugh suddenly felt warm in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I don't want to take up your precious time just because of this little thing!
If possible, please allow me to go alone!" Louis Feldbaugh immediately replied to Jerome Bonaparte.
Jérôme Bonaparte agreed to Louis Feldbou's request.
Next, Louis Feldbou hoped that Jérôme Bonaparte would allow the colonial army to introduce the "Chasebol machine gun".
Looking at the extremely serious Louis Feldbou in front of him, Jérôme Bonaparte weighed it repeatedly and decided to include Louis Feldbou in the ranks of the reformed army.
Originally, Jerome Bonaparte just wanted to discuss the telegraph issue with Louis Feldbeau. Now that Louis Feldbeau's colonial army "took the initiative" to send it to his door, how could Jerome Bonaparte let go?
reason for passing.
"General Feldbou!" Jérôme Bonaparte asked with a particularly serious expression, "Please tell me as an imperial soldier whether you are willing to follow the imperial instructions unconditionally!"
Louis Feldbe put his legs together and replied solemnly, "From the moment I joined the army, I have dedicated everything to the army and the empire (France)!"
"Very good!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction.
Immediately afterwards, Jérôme Bonaparte told Louis Feldbub that the French General Staff planned to design a new set of tactics around the "Chasebol machine gun" and the "Mauser rifle."
Since changes in tactics inherently carry certain risks, and they will also face counterattacks from some who are unwilling to reform, the General Staff has to maintain a cautious attitude towards tactical innovation.
The General Staff is not prepared to implement new tactics at home and in Algeria before it is determined that the new tactics are definitely better than the existing battalion-level cluster tactics system.
The important task of implementing tactics on a small scale naturally fell on Louis Feldbub and others.
After listening to Jerome Bonaparte's request, Louis Feldbe was silent for a moment, and said to Jerome Bonaparte in a serious tone, "Your Majesty, can I ask you a question!"
"Of course!" Jérôme Bonaparte preached to Louis Field cheerfully.
"Why did you choose me?" Louis Feldbe asked Jerome Bonaparte doubtfully.
Of course it's because you brought it to me on your own initiative! If you weren't willing to introduce the "Shasaibo Machine Gun" and "Mauser Rifle", I wouldn't have chosen you at all!
Jérôme Bonaparte swore, and then lied to Louis Feldbou without a blush or a heartbeat, "Because Niel, the Chief of General Staff, and I need some generals who are not too rigid in their thinking to help us explore this route."
roads, and you happen to be one of them!”
"Who else besides me?" Louis Feldbaugh felt a little disappointed. He thought that Jerome Bonaparte only gave this task to him.
Now it seems that I have thought too much!
However, Jérôme Bonaparte's next words revived Louis Feldbe's originally depressed mood.
"And Jerome Paterson, the Governor of Gabon!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied to Louis Feldbe. "Paterson explored this road in Gabon more than a year ago, and now he has
Now I have a little bit of experience!
If you are willing, you can communicate with Patterson to confirm!
I think he is very willing to explore and communicate with a veteran like you!"
Hearing that he and the emperor's nephew had accepted the same mission, Louis Feldb felt a great sense of importance.
After all, Jerome Patterson represented the future of the Empire.
Even though other princes of the Bonaparte family never recognized Jerome Paterson's status, it did not hinder Jerome Paterson's status in the emperor's heart.
Before Jérôme Paterson became governor of Gabon, no one under the age of 30 had served as governor.
Even though the governor of Gabon is far less valuable than the governor of Algeria, Jerome Patterson is worse than his youth.
In other words, as long as Jerome Patterson doesn't die halfway, he is bound to rise.
The fact that Louis Feldeb was able to accept the same mission as Jerome Patterson is enough to illustrate his importance in the emperor's mind.
An impulse of "a man who knows his friends will die" poured into Louis Feldbub's heart.
At this moment, in the heart of Louis Feldbou, Jérôme Bonaparte is the only sun of France. As long as the emperor can trust him as always, he is willing to risk his life and fight for the emperor and the empire.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured! I will follow your instructions and maintain communication with Governor Jerome Patterson!" Louis Feldbaugh assured Jerome Bonaparte sonorously.
From the eyes of Louis Feldbou, Jérôme Bonaparte saw unprecedented firmness and determination, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
Come on, I’ve tricked another person!
Andre von Becciu, who was standing aside, silently complained in his heart. He had been following Jerome Bonaparte for a while and he was very aware of the emperor's tricks to deceive people.
The emperor first motivates you with a grand goal, then expresses his importance to you, and finally hangs you with a visible future.
There are not a few generals like Louis Feldbaugh.
Don’t most people see the emperor’s tricks?
Of course not. Most of the generals and politicians who were deceived by the emperor knew the emperor's tricks.
However, they were willingly deceived by the emperor.
The reason is that France's power structure is in the shape of a pyramid. The higher they climb, the fewer positions there are, so they must do whatever it takes to climb up.
The emperor holds most of the power in France, which means that as long as they obey the emperor's orders, the emperor can help them achieve a class jump.
Jérôme Bonaparte happened to be the kind of consequentialist who only cared about results.
With grades, you can have everything.
On the contrary, without corresponding results you will lose everything!
Therefore, many people who thought they were underappreciated knew that Jerome Bonaparte was wooing them, and they would risk their lives to fall into the emperor's arms.
"General Feldbou, I believe that with your ability you will be able to explore a suitable path for France!" Jerome Bonaparte continued to encourage Louis Feldbou, "I can assure you that as long as you
Able to complete this task well!
There must be a place for you as Marshal of the Empire!"
