Make France Great Again

After Trochu's introduction, Jerome Patterson looked at the two "barons" carefully, with a surprised expression on his face. He didn't understand why the two German barons appeared in the ranks of workers.

"Commander Trochu, you are kidding! We are just two criminals who were expelled from the Austrian Empire. We are no longer barons!" Mirabeau Plenkovic responded to Brigadier General Trochu with a wry smile. road.

"Sinner? What is going on?" Jerome Patterson became increasingly curious about the identities of Mirabeau Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovic.

"It's better for these two to tell you this question personally!" Old God Trochu pointed at Mira and Andre and said to Jerome Patterson.

"Which one of you two is going to tell me what's going on?" Jerome Patterson asked Mirabeau Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovich with a confused look on his face.

After Andrei and Mirabeau looked at each other, Mirabeau Plenkovic opened his mouth and said to Jerome Patterson: "Your Excellency, Governor, let me speak for you!"

Mirabo Plenkovic recounted that Mirab Plenkovic was born in a baron family in Croatia and was the second child of this family.

As long as nothing unexpected happens to him who has an older brother above his head, he is destined to be unable to inherit the family business and title, and the amount of inheritance he can obtain in the future will all depend on the wishes of his elder brother.

Therefore, in order to prevent Mirabeau Plenkovitch from being exposed on the streets in the future, his father, the old Baron, specially formulated a military plan for Mirabeau Plenkovitch when he was very young.

Although this plan was not a favorite of Mirabeau Plenkovitch, due to his father's stick education, Mirabeau Plenkovitch still gritted his teeth and climbed up the road of the army.

Since the Austrian Empire implemented a one-stop system from military primary school to military academy, when Mirabeau Plenkovic was about 8 years old, he was sent to a military school organized by the Austrian Empire in Zagreb. He attended elementary school and then went up from military elementary school to military academy.

While studying at the military academy, Mirabeau Plenkovic came into contact with the thoughts of Rousseau and others. From then on, his thoughts became no longer as simple as before.

After graduating from the military academy, Mirapo Plenkovic was assigned to the Croatian Military District as a second lieutenant.

It happened that at this time, Mirabeau Plenkovitch's brother and mother died of cholera.

Mirabeau Plenkovitch's identity naturally made him the heir to the family, and the old Baron Mirabeau also increased his investment in Mirabeau Plenkovitch.

In just ten years, Mirabeau Plenkovic was promoted from second lieutenant to colonel.

However, just after Baron Mirabeau Plenkovitch became a colonel, the old Baron Mirabeau also passed away.

Mirabeau Plenkovitch naturally inherited all the property of the old Baron Mirabeau.

After getting money, Mirabeau Plenkovitch's spirit began to feel empty, and he began to find some books banned by the Austrian Empire in various ways.

Gradually, Mirabeau Plenkovic's thoughts moved closer to the idea of ​​constitutionalism. He believed that the Austrian Empire should not continue to adapt to the brutal autocratic monarchy, but should learn from the constitutional monarchy of France and Britain.

It was at this time that the raging revolution began.

The whole of Croatia was affected by the Great Revolution and became impatient. Mirabo Plenkovic decided to take advantage of this opportunity to do something big.

In tandem with Mirabeau Plenkovic, the three regiments stationed in Zagreb (including Andrei Milanovic's figure) began to respond to the response of the people of Zagreb. They adopted the slogan that the Austrian Empire should be a constitutional monarchy and forced the Austrian Empire to compromise with them.

It is a pity that the Austrian Empire did not choose to compromise, but responded to them with a perfunctory attitude.

Mirabo Plenkovic decided to let the Austrian Empire know the will of the Croatian people, so he began to continue to connect the remaining armies in an attempt to create an atmosphere that would either grant Croatia status or go to war.

This time the Austrian Empire chose to compromise, and they appointed Josip Jelacic as a senior official and commander-in-chief of Croatia.

"Since the Austrian Empire chose to compromise, how could you still be the ones to be punished?" Jerome Patterson asked.

"It's all the fault of that bastard, Josip!" Mirabeau Plenkovic said to Jerome Patterson through gritted teeth.

It turned out that after Josip Jelacic became a senior official and commander-in-chief of Croatia, he changed his past attitude of opposing Austria and openly declared that the Croatian Autonomous Region should be loyal to the Austrian Empire.

In order to let the Austrian Imperial Government see its sincerity, Mirabeau Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovich became the masterminds of this rebellion.

However, Josip Jelacic was relatively righteous. He did not directly sentence them to death, but imprisoned them in a cell, waiting for the judgment of the Austrian Empire.

When the Austrian Empire, with the help of the Russian Empire, completely suppressed Hungarian independence, trials followed.

Perhaps because the Austrian Empire had caused too many killings in Hungary, Mirabeau Plenkovic was not sentenced to death. Instead, he was stripped of his title and property as a baron and sentenced to imprisonment.

If Jérôme Bonaparte had not needed a large number of laborers, Mirabeau Plenkovitch and the others would never have been released.

Of course, this group of workers has been tacitly recognized by the Austrian Empire as being never able to return to the empire, so they dared to stuff political prisoners into the labor force and send them to France.

"So, you two can be considered as knowledgeable people!" Jerome Patterson said to Mirabeau Plenkovic with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Your Majesty the Governor!" Mirabeau Plenkovitch puffed up his chest and proudly replied to Jerome Patterson: "Although our military capabilities are far inferior to General Trochu and you, we can command small-scale battles. I still have some ability.”

"That's good!" Jerome Patterson also had a smile on his lips, and then he changed the subject and said to Mirabeau Plenkovic: "But I'll say it first! I don't care what you said before No matter what book you have read, but in the French Foreign Legion you must choose to obey!"

"I understand!" Mirabeau Plenkovic replied to Jerome Patterson in a sonorous tone.

"Let me see the results of your training!" Jerome Patterson responded to Mirabeau Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovic.

"Yes!" Mirabeau Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovich responded in unison.

Then, the four people in the tent walked out of the camp.

Mirapo Plenkovic and Andrei Milanovic announced the assembly to their subordinates in Croatia. After hearing their orders, their subordinates hurriedly ran towards the distance.

After a while, the loud bugle sounded throughout the Croatian military camp.

The Croatian members who were training quickly moved to the clearing after hearing the bugle.

Trosch and others also walked towards the clearing. When they arrived at the clearing, nearly half of the team had already gathered.

After a few more minutes, a team of nearly 5,000 people gathered in the open space.

Looking at the neatly arranged crowds in the open space, Jerome Patterson couldn't help but feel a little excited.

As a lieutenant colonel, he is about to command these people to go to Gabon to expand the French Empire's sphere of influence in Africa.

Immediately afterwards, Mirabeau Plenkovic’s introduction rang in Jerome Patterson’s ears, “This is Governor Jerome Patterson, our future chief! I hope that every one of you will One must maintain enough respect for the Governor..."

Mirabeau Plenkovic praised Jerome Patterson endlessly, which made Jerome Patterson feel a little ashamed.

"Now let's ask His Excellency the Governor to say a few words!" Mirabeau Plenkovic said to everyone present, and then made an invitation gesture to Jerome Patterson and said with a smile: "Your Excellency the Governor, Please do it!"

Jerome Patterson cleared his throat, organized his words and said: "As Mirabeau Plenkovic said just now, my name is Jerome Patterson, and I will be the governor of Gabon. Position..."

As Jerome Patterson spoke, Mirabeau Plenkovitch beside him translated Jerome Patterson's words to them.

"... I can assure you that the empire will never be greedy for every penny of your money. All the money will be remitted to each of your homes... If you unfortunately die, the empire will also give you a certain amount. The compensation will allow your families to live in peace and stability... If you grab the loot in the battle, the empire will not choose to confiscate it! On the contrary, we will provide you with channels so that you can turn the loot into gold coins." Jerome Patterson told them about their treatment and inspired them to serve the empire.

The Croatians who heard the treatment showed excited expressions on their faces. Living in relatively poor areas of the Austrian Empire, their monthly wages were pitiful, and the cost of labor was 3 to 4 times as much. This was enough to make a The Croatians took desperate measures.

Therefore, when they learned that they were going to be mercenaries, they did not choose to quit. Instead, they gritted their teeth and persisted in functional training.

And the reason why they do this is to ensure their lives are protected.

There is only one disease in this world that is difficult to treat, and that is the disease of poverty!
