Thank you to Brother Duohu Chong for your monthly ticket, thank you to Broken for your reward, thank you to all brothers for your subscription, this is an unexpected surprise, this chapter is for you,

The Elysée Palace was built in 1718. The Third French Republic issued a decree in 1873, officially designating the Elysée Palace as the French presidential palace.

Qin Zhiyuan's car could only drive to the square in front of the Elysee Palace, and then walk into the Presidential Palace.

Raymond's secretary was waiting at the door. When he saw Qin Zhiyuan arriving, he immediately led Qin Zhiyuan up to the second floor and directly to Raymond Puengale's office.

As a former royal palace, the interior decoration of the Elysée Palace is magnificent. All room walls are decorated with gilded precious wood. Famous oil paintings and exquisite handmade tapestries are hung on the walls. Gold-plated furniture from the 17th and 18th centuries are displayed around it, as well as

Precious artworks from all over the world, this is a museum.

Raymond Poincaré's office was equally magnificent. When the secretary opened the gilded and carved wooden door that was as tall as two people, Qin Zhiyuan felt that the French had piled the entire country's gold in the Elysee Palace.

No wonder the French can still continue to fight. They really have no money. If they demolish this place, they can still sell it for a lot of money. Qin Zhiyuan maliciously speculated that he had the urge to pick out the gold from the door and bite it with his teeth to see if it was pure.

.

Qin, hello, wait for me for a moment. Raymond Poungale said hello without raising his head.

Raymond Puengale was sitting behind a huge desk writing furiously, with at least three or four secretaries beside him holding thick documents waiting for his signature.

Fortunately, he did not sign every page. Every time Raymond took a document, he would turn directly to the last page, sign his name and be done with it. Strictly speaking, the French president is a symbolic position, and the power of the government is concentrated in the prime minister.

The documents sent to the president are resolutions that have been discussed by the prime minister and the parliament. As the president, Raymond Poungale only has the right to sign and is not even interested in reading them.

So what if it is overturned? Even if it is an opinion, it will not count. The Prime Minister and the Parliament need the President's signature, but do not need the President's opinion.

This is the tragedy of Western republics.

Soon, Raymond signed the last document and fell on the chair with relief and let out a long breath.

Oh, sorry, this is my job. Puengalei slapped his head and remembered that there were people in the office, so he stood up and asked Qin Zhiyuan to sit on the sofa.

There are advantages to a republic, at least you don't need to kneel when meeting the head of state. You don't need to be cautious, just be honest and generous.

Originally, I wanted to wait until the evening for us to have a good talk, but unfortunately I can't wait until then. Things are unpredictable, aren't they? Puengale asked the secretary to bring coffee.

I'm sorry about what happened at the Renault factory. Qin Zhiyuan said sorry, but his tone and expression showed no apology at all.

No, no, no, it's not your fault. It's not my fault. It's not even Colonel Marcus' fault. If you get to the bottom of it, it's all the fault of this damn war. Poincaré has a huge forehead and a beard bigger than

His hair is thick and swaying wildly when he shakes his head.

Qin Zhiyuan smiled and didn't talk much. Listening more and speaking less made communication easier.

There is a saying in China called troubled times, which is not accurate enough. Look at this winter, things are not that few, and they are also very difficult. Puengalei is a little bit fatter. Compared to a person who is nearly sixty years old

, not serious yet.

If I can be of service to you, please give the order directly. Qin Zhiyuan bowed to show proper respect.

Of course, I have two difficult things to deal with here. One is the 1st Brigade of the Foreign Legion stationed in Paris, and the other is Corsica, where a rebellion is taking place. I hope you can give me a suggestion. Let's take a look.

How to solve these two things at the same time? Poongarai's way of thinking is unique and his way of expression is also unique.

Mr. President, if possible, I will set off as soon as possible and put down the rebellion in Corsica. Qin Zhiyuan took the initiative to ask for a fight.

Of course, this is the reason why I called you here. I'm very sorry that you can't attend the banquet in the evening. It's still snowing in the sky, but you have to lead the troops on a long journey. Thank you for your hard work. Poungale did not refuse Qin Zhiyuan or

Delayed time.

No problem, if possible, I want to go back and prepare now. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't want to delay at all, he just wants to fly to Corsica with wings.

Go, go, go to General Wennington, he will give you some advice. Poongarai was satisfied and returned to his desk ready to continue working.

After just a few words, two more secretaries were waiting beside him, and several guests were waiting outside the door. Judging from their height and skin color, they seemed to be Japanese.

Japanese Qin Zhiyuan suddenly became alert.

Wennington is a middle-aged man in his fifties. Perhaps because of his long-term civil service career, Wennington has gained serious weight, so much so that the originally straight general uniform looks like a cloak on Wennington.

Corsica, the people on that island are really hateful. Here is some information, you can take a look. Wennington took out a folder and handed it to Qin Zhiyuan across the desk.

Corsica has an area of ​​8,680 square kilometers, a population of 13,000, and a current resident population of 8,000. It has beautiful natural scenery and is called the Beautiful Island. In 1768, people sold their rights on Corsica to the French.

Since then, except for a brief period of British occupation from 1794 to 1796, Corsica has always been a French territory.

Corsica lacks resources and is backward in industry and commerce. The local government relies on blood transfusions from the French government to survive. The residents of the island mainly live in agriculture and animal husbandry, but they cannot even feed themselves with what they produce. They rely entirely on agricultural subsidies from the French government.

Only in this way can we survive. Speaking of Corsica, in the eyes of the French, it is usually associated with poverty and backwardness. According to custom, the French have never listed Corsica as a French territory. Of course, on the other side,

, Corsicans don’t consider themselves French either.

After the outbreak of the World War, France issued a military conscription order, but only a handful of Corsicans enlisted. Most young people of school age tried to evade military service for various reasons. This made the French government very dissatisfied. Within the French government, there has been

There has always been a voice that since the Corsicans want to be independent, let them be independent. In this case, the French government can at least get rid of a financial burden.

As time went by, the French government's financial problems arose, and the agricultural subsidies given to Corsica could not be paid in full and on time, which aroused dissatisfaction among the Corsican people. On Christmas Eve, the government official in Ajaccio

Buildings were blown up and four magistrates were assassinated in Ajaccio and Bastia, before a group calling itself the Democratic Union of Corsica claimed responsibility and formally launched its political demands.

It was the worst violence in Corsica since it became a French territory.

If possible, Qin, you must not be benevolent as a woman, and must quickly put down this rebellion with thunderous force. Wennington's voice was fierce.

If I encounter resistance, how far can I go? Qin Zhiyuan asked for verification.

Do whatever you can. Wennington looked ferocious.

Well, Qin Zhiyuan felt confident.

.Children who are following the update, do you still have free appreciation tickets and starting coins? The countdown to the 515 red envelope list is coming. I am here to solicit votes, asking for extra votes and appreciation votes, and finally give it a try. To be continued.
