Chapter 165 Sending troops to Spain
"?" Xiao Jie heard that someone dared to say that, and immediately looked angrily at the source of the voice. Seeing that Savary was sitting there with such an expression, he was even more angry. But at the same time, I also understood why Savary would slander him like this, because Savary has a close relationship with Louis, and Louis has always been jealous of Xiao Jie, so Savary will naturally not take Xiao Jie seriously. He often troubled Xiao Jie with Louis, but because he was also in a high position and Louis was helping him, Xiao Jie couldn't do anything about him for a while.
Xiao Jie was about to get angry, but at this moment a majestic voice remembered enough, Savary. Can you also slander the crown prince? Get out of here right away. It turned out to be Napoleon's angry voice. He didn't like Savary in the first place, so of course he won't give him face now.
Being scolded in front of so many people, even though it was Napoleon who scolded him, Savary was still very ashamed and angry, and left in despair after glancing at Xiao Jie. up. "People who are kind are bullied, and horses who are good are ridden." Xiao Jie suddenly felt that this paragraph was too low-key, and now even people like Savary dare to be disrespectful, and at the same time, if he is determined to seize the opportunity, he must To make Savary look good, of course, Louis who is behind him will not let it go.
Seeing that Xiao Jie is not in a good mood now, Napoleon said well, let's end today's meeting here. I will send Bessières Imperial Guard to Spain first, and then go to Spain after Andresi's legion training is over. Also, promote Bessières to Marshal of the French Empire. At the same time, each legion must defend the defense zone. Prevent the enemy from taking advantage of this moment. "
Seeing that Napoleon had made arrangements, everyone stopped talking and left after saluting Napoleon and Xiao Jie.
"Andresi, aren't you worried about your father?" asked Napoleon.
"Of course I'm worried, but I and he will be fine." Xiao Jie said with a smile. Joseph is now the King of Spain and the Prince of France. Even if all the French troops in Spain are dead, he will be sent back to France first. He can do something.
"Andresi. The strength of the empire is very tense now. I hope that the 88th Army can go to Spain in a month. Stabilize the situation there." Napoleon said.
Now that Napoleon has said so, can Xiao Jie still object? Although the 88th Legion is his private property, Napoleon is still the emperor of France anyway, and His Majesty still needs to listen to what the emperor says.
"Well, the 88th Army will leave on time in a month's time. But I still have a few requests, I hope you can agree to them." Xiao Jie said, although he agreed to send troops. But still want to get some benefits, right?
"Andresi, you want the current King of Spain to be your father, and you also have the title of Prince of Spain. In the future, these will be yours too. Is there any need to make demands?" Character. Napoleon was a little displeased.
"Of course I do, but my request has nothing to do with these, I just want to solve the Spanish problem well." Xiao Jie explained.
"Oh, so you have a solution to this problem?" Napoleon was a little surprised. The mess in Spain has now made him burnt out. Seeing Xiao Jie like this now, he must have thought of a solution. Wouldn't this make Napoleon happy? At the same time, there is also a trace of suspicion, that is, the current situation in Spain is completely terrible, which is completely beyond his expectations.
"I do have some ideas. But I'm not very mature yet." Xiao Jie touched his nose and said. Nor was he very sure about local law.
"Oh, then tell me what you think first." Napoleon asked with some expectation. When there are no outsiders, he is no longer the admirable emperor, but a kind elder.
"I want you to withdraw all the legions currently in Spain, and give certain punishments to those who have committed serious crimes in Spain, so as to calm the anger of the Spanish people against us." Xiao Jie said.
"That's not acceptable. We took so much effort to occupy Spain. How can we just give up like this?" Napoleon objected. Xiao Jie, in another world, it is precisely because of his mentality that countless French soldiers fell in Spain.
"You misunderstood me. I don't mean to abandon Spain. It's just to replace the troops in Spain. And, after changing the troops in Spain. Strict discipline to prevent the soldiers from killing innocent people." Xiao Jie explained.
"But the problem we are facing now is that there is a serious shortage of troops. There is simply no troops to replace the army in Spain?" Napoleon felt a little regretful.
"You are sure that the 88th Army can do what more than 100,000 people cannot do." Napoleon was very surprised. Although the 88th Army has greatly improved its strength, it is not only Spain's problems can be solved with just one 88th Army Corps.
"Don't worry, Uncle. I'm sure I can do it."
"Well, I'll let them cooperate with you." Seeing Xiao Jie's insistence, Napoleon didn't say any more.
"At the same time, I hope to get full support in terms of logistics, and I don't want the situation like General Juno's." Xiao Jie said. Logistics is the biggest problem that the 88th Army has to overcome. The 88th Army's combat effectiveness is indeed very strong, but correspondingly, the demand for logistics is equally huge.
"I will personally send someone to take charge of this issue." Napoleon said solemnly.
"I demand that all the troops in Spain accept my command." Xiao Jie continued to ask.
Napoleon thought for a while, but he still agreed. Anyway, according to what Xiao Jie said, all the troops in Spain will be withdrawn to France by then.
"In addition, from now on, no matter what I do, I hope you will not interfere." Xiao Jie made the last request, which is also the most important point. Only after Napoleon agreed to this point, he dared to let go in Spain building.
"Can you tell me what exactly you plan to do in Spain?" Wu Cuo Novel Network did not skip words. Napoleon gave Xiao Jie a deep look.
Shaking my head, I don't do it now, but I will work hard to calm down Spain, so that it will not become a place that consumes France's national power. "
After thinking for a while, Napoleon said okay, I agree, anyway, Joseph is the current King of Spain. "In this way, Napoleon gave Xiao Jie a lot of autonomy, unlike other countries controlled by the Bonaparte family, which have their own kings in name, but are ultimately controlled by France.
The next day, Napoleon signed the letter of appointment, appointing Xiao Jie as the commander-in-chief of the Spanish region, commanding all French troops in Spain.
On November 1, Bessières led the Imperial Guard to the Spanish front.
On November 7th, General Juno was defeated by the British army led by Sir Arthur ※#8226; Wellesley in Vimelo, and was forced to withdraw to Lisbon. The armistice agreement was signed in Sintra the next day. According to the agreement The French army was expelled from Portugal. All this happened within two months of the landing of Sir Arthur ※#8226; Wellesley's 9,000 men in Montego Bay, and the battle-hardened Junod, the legendary French army, was killed. Defeated and expelled from Portugal!
The strength of the Imperial Guard is really extraordinary. After Besière entered Spain, he quickly opened up the supply line between Madrid and Bayonne. And defeated the army led by the Spanish general Braque in Medina on the Seco River. However, he and the Imperial Guard he led committed the atrocities of war after the victory - killing thousands of Spanish soldiers who had surrendered. The news Napoleon did not let the French press.
November 9th is Xiao Jie's 18th birthday. Napoleon held a grand birthday party for Xiao Jie in the Tuileries Palace. But what is unexpected is that today, Madrid was surrounded by 100,000 Spanish troops led by Castagnos, and Josef, under the protection of Bessières, broke through and fled north to Gogo. Erdos. At the same time, the British army led by Sir Arthur ※#8226; Wellesley also entered Spain and began to attack the French army. One, the situation of the French troops in Spain was even more critical.
It was also on this day that Xiao Jie received a unique birthday gift again~www.mtlnovel.com~ That is, Sophie, who had known him for more than a year, became his on this day. It was also the day when the three of Xiao Jie officially met. Originally, Xiao Jie was worried about whether they would have a Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but unexpectedly, the three of them got along very well. This made Xiao Jie very meaningful, but at the same time he was overjoyed. Seeing them like this now, it's no longer a fantasy to be fucked.
Napoleon was so outraged by the defeat of the French army, especially Dupont's surrender, that he had strictly prohibited looting. "What Dupont has done really disappoints me. He was my favorite general, and he is likely to become my next marshal... It would be great if he could die on the battlefield with a weapon in hand, at least he can die with honor!" Napoleon Lun said he would send DuPont to a military court for trial. Napoleon was deeply helpless about Joseph's abandonment and escape. At the same time, he had to admit that the occupation of Spain was a nightmare from the very beginning, a repeat of the Egyptian expedition: the French army was in trouble everywhere, but the difference was that Spain had a large population, was well-armed, and was more determined to resist the invasion. Napoleon encountered only a few hostile armies in Egypt, while in Spain there are resistance troops everywhere, and they all occupy strong ancient castles and fortresses. In Egypt, the French army besieged only the city of Acre, and several cities were to be besieged here. If Kleber and Desse had some victories in Egypt, Moncey and Dupont had nothing in Spain—the former was ordered to attack Valencia and returned in defeat; the latter surrendered to Spain in July.
In order to save the rotten situation in Spain as soon as possible, under the urging of Napoleon, on November 25, Xiao Jie led the 88th Army to leave Paris and march towards Spain.
