Make France Great Again

Chapter 825 Piłsudski?

When the carriages of Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph, led by Wilder, arrived near Warsaw, the capital of the Kingdom of Poland, the carriage suddenly stopped.

After Jerome Bonaparte, who was sitting in the carriage, felt that the carriage was no longer moving forward, he opened his eyes and quickly opened the curtains.

The Polish cavalry following Jerome Bonaparte's carriage quickly turned their horses and rushed to Jerome Bonaparte's side after seeing Jerome Bonaparte coming to the curtain.

Jérôme Bonaparte asked the cavalryman in French through the car window: "What happened ahead? Why don't you continue moving forward?"

The Polish cavalry immediately replied to Jerome Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment! I will go to the front to take a look!"

"Go back quickly!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to the Polish cavalry, and then closed the curtains again.

After a while, a knock on the door sounded outside the carriage. Jérôme Bonaparte thought it was the Polish cavalry who had just left and came back to report on his duty.

Jérôme Bonaparte stood up and opened the door. Unexpectedly, Maximilian, then the Grand Duke of Warsaw, was standing outside the carriage with a smile on his face, and behind him were a group of Poles.

If Jérôme Bonaparte guessed correctly, they should be Maximilian's team.

"Maximilian, why are you here?" Maximilian's appearance surprised Jerome Bonaparte. He quickly jumped out of the carriage and hugged Maximilian.

Maximilian smiled and explained that as the host of the Kingdom of Poland, he naturally had to come in person to greet Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph.

After speaking, Maximilian introduced the members behind him to Jerome Bonaparte.

"This is the commander of the Warsaw National Army, Joseph Piłsudski!" Archduke Maximilian first introduced Jerome Bonaparte to a general wearing a gray military coat and a mustache. "Back then, It was he who fired the first shot against the Russian Empire and rescued Warsaw from its clutches.”

"Your name is Piłsudski?" Jerome Bonaparte looked up and down at the simple-looking general in front of him.

If his memory is correct, the general who led the new Poland to defeat the Soviet Union after World War I was also named Piłsudski.

However, this Piłsudski is obviously not the same Piłsudski, because the second Piłsudski was probably born about twenty years later.

I just don’t know if there is any connection between the two Piłsudskis.

Jerome Bonaparte could not help but secretly speculate on the relationship between the two Piłsudskis.

"Your Majesty, I am Piłsudski...Josef Piłsudski!" Feeling the scrutiny in Jerome Bonaparte's eyes, Joseph Piłsudski straightened his back and faced Jerome Bonaparte. Nabal responded forcefully.

"Commander Piłsudski, can I ask you a personal question!" Jerome Bonaparte said kindly to Piłsudski. He felt that the Piłsudski in front of him was absolutely the same as the one decades later. Piłsudski has something to do with it.

"Your Majesty, you ask!" Piłsudski replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Mr. Piłsudski, are you from Warsaw?" Jerome Bonaparte asked first.

"No! I'm not!" Piłsudski shook his head and replied to Jerome Bonaparte: "I was born in Zaravas, which is still the territory of the Russian Empire! My family is a young man there. A nobleman, running a manor!"

Jerome Bonaparte thought for a moment, then nodded and patted Piłsudski on the shoulder and said: "Okay! I've finished asking my questions. Thank you very much for your cooperation!"

"It is my honor, Your Majesty!" Joseph Piłsudski humbly responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

Now Jérôme Bonaparte could be sure that there must be a certain relationship between this Piłsudski and the future Piłsudski, because the second Piłsudski was also from Zaravas.

Later, Maximilian once again introduced Jerome Bonaparte to Count Jozel Morazewski, the first prime minister of the Kingdom of Poland, who was personally selected by Prince Czartoryski.

As a count of the Russian Empire, he served as the aide-de-camp to the Governor-General of Poland before the Polish Uprising. The army deployment and city defense map of the Warsaw area were secretly sent to the rebel generals on the eve of the uprising, so that the rebel troops could fight in the first place. Controlling various strongholds for a time, they dealt a devastating blow to the army in the city.

Moreover, when the uprising occurred, Mokaczewski led the remaining Polish Patriotic Guards to completely control the Polish General Government. After losing the central nerve of the Polish General Government, the Polish army in Warsaw was like a headless army. Like a fly, I don't know what to do.

This allowed Piłsudski and the others to dare to leave the Russian troops entrenched in Warsaw in just a few days.

It can be said that without the assistance of Count Morazewski there would have been no restoration of the city of Warsaw.

"Mr. Moraczewski, I have admired you for a long time!" Jerome Bonaparte shook hands with Count Moraczewski.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your contribution to Poland!" Count Mokarzewski humbly replied to Jerome Bonaparte: "If it weren't for you, Poland would never be able to regain its independence."

"Nothing!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Morazzewski with a smile on his face: "France and Poland are two countries with some history. We will never forget that we fought for each other during the First Empire. Polish generals and soldiers who fought bloody battles in France!”

"Your Majesty, Poland will not forget the French soldiers who were buried in this land for the cause of Polish independence!" Count Mokaczewski replied to Jerome Bonaparte in an emotional tone.

After Jerome Bonaparte had a preliminary understanding with Count Morazewski, Maximilian once again introduced Jerome Bonaparte to Poland's ministers of interior, foreign affairs, justice, etc.

Jérôme Bonaparte smiled, shook hands with them, and encouraged them.

After everyone was introduced, Jérôme Bonaparte asked Maximilian: "Maximilian, didn't you forget something?"

Maximilian was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly his expression changed drastically.

Maximilian, who was busy introducing the cabinet ministers to Jerome Bonaparte, forgot that there was another important guest he forgot in the carriage, and that was Franz Joseph.

What's worse is that nearly half an hour has passed since Maximilian introduced the cabinet members to him. He must have been waiting in the carriage in a hurry!

"Get over quickly!" Jerome Bonaparte urged Maximilian to hurry over.

Maximilian had no choice but to apologize to Jerome Bonaparte, and then led the cabinet members back.

Jerome Bonaparte returned to the carriage, shook his head and said with a smile: "This Maximilian is really..."

Jerome Bonaparte and Queen Augusta sat in the carriage and waited quietly for Maximilian and Franz Joseph to finish their conversation. About ten minutes later, Maximilian appeared in the carriage. In front of Rome Bonaparte, there was Franz Joseph with Maximilian.

It seemed that Franz Joseph had forgiven Maximilian for his carelessness.

Later, Maximilian invited Jerome Bonaparte to ride with him into Warsaw to greet the Warsaw people who cheered for the arrival of the two monarchs.

Jerome Bonaparte readily accepted Archduke Maximilian's proposal, and the three monarchs walked side by side and soon reached the front of the team.

"Brother, Your Majesty Jerome, let's go!" Maximilian turned over and mounted the prepared war horse.

Jérôme Bonaparte and Franz Joseph also mounted their horses, and the cavalry in silver armor quickly formed a human barrier around the three monarchs to protect their personal safety.

The convoy continued to move forward and soon arrived at the entrance to Warsaw.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was walking on the streets of Warsaw, looked at the ruins on both sides of the road that had not yet been cleared and the Polish people with warm smiles, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

In the history of Poland being divided for more than two hundred years, the Polish people have never stopped resisting for a moment. Perhaps it is really gratifying that the Polish people's persistent resistance will allow them to have the right to independence.

"Long live the French Empire! Long live the Austrian Empire! Long live the French-Austrian friendship! (French)"

"Long live France! Long live the Austrian Empire! Long live the Phaop game! (German)"

Just as Jerome Bonaparte was meditating, shouts brought Jerome Bonaparte back to reality. He saw the Polish people on both sides shouting hysterically in French and German.

Although their pronunciation is not standard, it is enough to represent their simple emotions.

Jérôme Bonaparte believed that the Kingdom of Poland, which had "learned its lessons", would cling to the thighs of France and Austria to prevent them from being invaded by the Russian Empire.

Amidst the shouts, the three monarchs simultaneously extended their hands to wave to the residents of Warsaw.

The three people on horseback took nearly 30 minutes to arrive at the "Royal Palace" of the Kingdom of Poland amid the cheers of the Warsaw people.

The reason why "palace" is put in quotation marks is because the palace of the King of Poland is not a newly built palace by Maximilian, but the former Polish Governor's Palace that became the current palace.

Entering the "Royal Palace" in Poland, Jerome Bonaparte looked at the furnishings inside the palace and said to Maximili in a teasing tone: "Your palace is really not in line with the temperament of a king like you!"

Maximilian smiled bitterly and responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "Now that the whole of Warsaw is in dire straits, how can I bear to slow down the reconstruction progress of the whole of Warsaw because of my own selfish desires!

I can only make you and your brother a little aggrieved! "

"I'm fine!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders.

Even in a dilapidated house on the Crimean Peninsula, Jerome Bonaparte was able to sleep without any psychological burden, let alone the General Palace of Poland.
