Make France Great Again

Chapter 340 Strategy for the War with Russia

"Your Majesty, please look!"

Brigadier General Leboeuf, who was sitting opposite Jerome Bonaparte, spread out the map on the table. There were 4 maps in total, recording the Danube region (Romania), Bulgaria, and the vicinity of Constantinople and Grammar. Crimea region (Sevastopol).

Each map is completed at a scale of 1:80,000 in accordance with Jérôme Bonaparte's requirements. It can be said to be the most detailed and timely military map in the world today.

[PS: The military maps of the Russian Empire and Britain are generally around 1:320,000, and the maps were probably drawn during the Napoleonic Wars. 】

On these military maps, the height of each mountain and the width of the river are accurately marked with numbers, which can be said to be quite perfect.

"You did a good job!" Jérôme Bonaparte looked at each one carefully and nodded with satisfaction.

From a certain point of view, the bureaucratic class in the world has a moral character. As long as the superiors do not issue a fatal order, the lower-level bureaucrats will only complete the order at a discount.

Only after giving them a death order, this group of bureaucrats will try their best to complete the task.

The cornered bureaucracy is enough to achieve efficiency several times greater than before. Of course, don’t expect bureaucrats to spark ideas in certain creative fields. The vast majority of bureaucrats will only turn 1 into 2, not 0 into 1.

"This is what we should do!" Leboeuf responded humbly.

"With these maps, France will be invincible in the next war in the Near East!" Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the map of Romania and said to Leboeuf.

Next, Jerome Bonaparte and Leboeuf conducted a simple deduction on what form the Russian Empire might take in the Near East.

After merging the four maps, Leboeuf pointed out that the Russian Empire would most likely launch an army from Bessarabia (currently a territory of the Russian Empire) to attack Bulgaria after occupying the two Danubian principalities.

By then, the Austrian Empire will inevitably send troops at the same time.

"According to the estimates of the Secretariat, the combined army of the Russian Empire and the Austrian Empire will be around 500,000 to 600,000 people." Leboeuf said to Jerome Bonaparte in a serious tone.

"Why do you think the Austrian Empire will join the war with us?" Jerome Bonaparte did not refute Leboeuf's hypothesis, he asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, there is no way for the Secretariat to speculate on diplomatic issues, but we must prepare for the worst! The war is changing rapidly, and we must think of all response strategies." Leboeuf answered frankly to Jérôme Bonaparte road.

Jérôme Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction. Leboeuf's calm attitude made him realize that the "frequently defeated" general in front of him was making rapid progress.

He may be more outstanding now than in history!

Jerome Bonaparte thought to himself.

A person's ability to lead troops in war is never fixed and depends on the decision-making of the ruler.

Why were all Liu Bang's talents born in Pei County? Why are most of Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates Fengyang?

Or why Napoleon's men were so densely populated?

Probably because the ruler himself is also a man with some outstanding military exploits, otherwise most of them are just ordinary people.

The same person will have different results in the hands of Jerome Bonaparte and Louis Napoleon, because Jerome Bonaparte has a vision that transcends this era for a hundred years. In all military affairs, everyone is fighting for it. It was a time when we were groping for the future of military warfare and trying to get out of the shackles of the Napoleonic Wars.

[PS: After the Napoleonic Wars, the thinking of European countries has been limited to the Napoleonic War period. Even when the Civil War saw the dawn of total war, everyone, including Moltke, believed that the Civil War was just "two armed thugs chasing each other in the country, with no redeeming qualities.\
