On January 10, 1811, Murat was ordered to lead the cavalry corps to the coastal city of Perpignan in southern France to prevent a possible conflict with Iberia. Murat, who led the army again, can be said to be full of ambitions. Since Xiao Jie lifted his military power and took away his troops in Zago Lasa last time, Murat has been thinking about revenge and making things difficult for Xiao Jie everywhere.
Looking at the long queue of cavalry, Murat was very proud. He often claimed to be the most outstanding cavalry general in France. The previous cavalry regiment was taken away by Xiao Jie, and now the new cavalry regiment was passed by Murat. It has been painstakingly trained for a year, and the equipment and training level are much better than the previous one. This is also the greatest guarantee of Murat's status.
In about 3 days, Savary will lead the 11th Army to arrive. By then, the two of them will be in trouble, and it is time to think about how to plot against Xiao Jie. As for Napoleon's order prohibiting them from provoking the Iberian army, Murat has long since thrown it into the sky.
On November 13, Savary led the 11th Army to Perpignan. At this time, the French army had assembled on the border with two legions totaling more than 60,000 people. Once you reach the simple line of defense, you are ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
The French army gathered a large number of troops on the border, which aroused the close attention of the Iberian high-level. On the one hand, they asked the 2nd Division of the 88th Army to closely monitor the situation on the border. Once the French army forcibly entered Iberia, they were allowed to launch a counterattack. , but cannot cross the border. On the other hand, the cavalry corps, which was in a hurry in Madrid, rushed to Barcelona to strengthen the defense and deterrent force in the north. In addition, the Navy also sent three "Iberia" class warships to Barcelona, the purpose of which is self-evident.
The largest mountain range in southwestern Europe. The dividing line between France and the Iberian Peninsula. It starts from the shore of the Bay of Biscay in the Atlantic Ocean in the west and ends in the Mediterranean Sea in the east, with a length of about 435 kilometers. It is generally 80-140 kilometers wide, only 10 kilometers wide at the eastern end, and 160 kilometers wide at the central part. Most of them are above 2000 meters above sea level. The Pyrenees hindered the communication between Iberia and the European continent to a certain extent, but also played a certain protective role. If the Beast Army wants to enter Iberia, they can only enter from the east of the mountain range, and other places are simply not suitable for large troops to march. Therefore, as long as the area north of Barcelona is defended, the French army will not be able to enter Iberia.
Since France and Iberia each increased their troops on the border, the situation in this area has become very unstable. Especially this small place in the eastern Pyrenees, where the two sides have gathered an army of more than 100,000 people. Now this situation is like a pile of dry wood, as long as there is a little spark, it may ignite a raging fire.
It has been a week since Murat and Savary arrived in Perpignan. It is unbelievable that the two of them have been very calm and low-key during this time, making those who originally thought that the two were very positive when they arrived. Those who instigated the war were stunned. Did they really give up their hatred for Xiao Jie because of an order from Napoleon? This is probably somewhat unlikely.
"Marshal Murat, when are we going to do it? Are you going to let Andrési continue to be the emperor in Madrid?" Savary asked eagerly. This place is not as prosperous as Paris, and there are not countless noble ladies to hook up with, so he doesn't want to stay here for a long time.
After giving Savary a blank look, Murat said: "How many times have I told you to hold your breath. If you do it now, it will be very bad for us. Besides, why are we in a hurry? There are people who are more anxious than us."
"Who else? Isn't it just the British? By the way, they only give 10 million francs. Isn't it too little? I have to ask them to add more." Savary said after thinking for a while.
Hearing what Savary said so directly, Murat despised him from the bottom of his heart. I really don't know how he was promoted to general and commander of the 11th Legion with his brain. But he didn't dare to show it, because among the many regiment commanders of the French army, he and Murat got along well, and many of Murat's plans needed his help to implement them? So Murat has always been very enthusiastic about Savary, just like treating her own brother. No, it should be closer than his own brothers, because Murat basically didn't care much about his brothers. "Savari, you have to know that not only the British want to overthrow Napoleon's comrades, but Prussia, Austria and Russia also think the same way. No one wants a strong France to stand in Europe." Murat said with a smile .
"Aren't Prussia, Austria, and Russia our allies now? Don't we all join forces to deal with Britain?" Savary asked with some doubts.
"My God! Don't you believe that they are really allied with us?" Murat was almost defeated by Savary.
"But everyone signed the peace treaty, and they all joined the mainland blockade system." Savary continued.
"Savari, there is a basis for what I said. From yesterday morning to this morning, not only the British envoys came to me, but also the Prussian, Austrian and Russian envoys. And their purposes are similar. , They all hope that through us, there will be a war between France and Iberia to weaken France's strength, and only then can they feel at ease." Murat said.
"The country? What does that matter to us? In fact, we are saving France by doing this. France is indeed very strong now, but this has deeply aroused the uneasiness of other countries, so it united against them five times. It is the same as the French alliance. Only when France's strength is consumed, can Europe maintain peace." Murat said with a calm face, as if he was a guardian of world peace.
"But what can they do if they unite? Haven't we already defeated them five times?" Savary said with some pride. Since he has been in the army for more than 20 years, he has basically participated in every war.
"So what if you won five times? Do you think Napoleon can keep winning? What if you lose? Don't tell me that you can't see that France's current strength has begun to decline. So this is how we are saving France, you know?" Murat continued to "teach".
Savary felt that what Murat said was quite reasonable, so he fell into deep thought. Murat knew that if Savary was not allowed to figure it out, it would definitely be a mistake, so she didn't bother him and asked him to think about it.
"Does Prussia, Austria and Russia also give money? How much?" Savary asked suddenly.
"Eh? Yes, of course I have to, otherwise who will do things for them?" Murat almost didn't understand the contrast between Savary's before and after. "Don't worry, you will be indispensable at that time." Murat added.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, but when are we going to act?" Savary finally asked.
"Okay, let me tell you. But you have to keep it secret. Now the Iberian army is also very tightly defended. After a while, they relax and we can act. As for the specific time, I have already decided , that is, the 29th, the day Andresi held her wedding." Murat confessed.
"Okay, then do what you say, I'll go back and wait for the news." Savary said.
In the next period of time, calm was restored on the border. Although there were occasional small frictions between the French army and the Iraqi army, they were suppressed by the officers of both sides and did not cause much impact.
The confrontation between the two ** teams has also had a considerable impact on people's lives and economic development. In order to trap suspicious persons entering the country, both sides have set up a large number of checkpoints. This greatly hinders economic development.
The time finally came to January 29th. Today is Xiao Jie’s wedding day. Due to the confrontation with the French army some time ago, Madrid’s anger was very tense. Everyone was afraid of war, but after so many days, everyone It's still "all right", so most people's originally tense nerves can't help but relax.
Xiao Jie's wedding was held in the Madrid Cathedral, and an archbishop officiated the wedding ceremony for them. Although the archbishop was very reluctant to officiate the wedding ceremony for the Bonaparte family, under the threat of bayonets, he still had to submit. This point, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Xiao Jie learned from Napoleon, but compared to Napoleon daring to threaten the Pope with a command knife, Xiao Jie is still far behind.
The wedding was held in a grand manner, not only government officials, military leaders, businessmen and other celebrities attended, but also citizens of the entire city of Madrid spontaneously participated in it, so that the military had to send 4 infantry regiments to maintain the wedding ceremony. order so as not to cause other incidents. It is worth mentioning that French Foreign Minister Campbell also rushed to Madrid, and he brought Napoleon's blessing and a lot of rewards.
The wedding process was carried out in an orderly manner under the auspices of the archbishop. When the couple was asked to exchange rings, Ike suddenly rushed to Napoleon's side and whispered to him: "At 9 o'clock this morning, our army There was a large-scale conflict with the French army, and the French army had an infantry regiment and a cavalry regiment attacking my infantry battalion, and now the two sides are fighting fiercely."
Xiao Jie nodded his head, expressing that he knew, and then said softly: "Go and deal with it, let the troops behave tougher." Then, Xiao Jie put on a ring for his bride and continued their wedding.
Eck nodded and quickly walked out of the church.
