Mirabeau Plenkovic was a little caught off guard by Jerome Paterson's sudden order. He did not understand what his Excellency the Governor suddenly ordered him to lead the soldiers into the city of Libreville.
Jerome Paterson did not give Mirabo Plenkovic time to think, he urged Mirabo Plenkovic in a tough tone: "What are you waiting for! Carry out the order? !"
"Yes! Sir!" Mirabo Plenkovic saluted Jerome Patterson and quickly went to organize the staff.
After about 20 minutes, a heavily armed infantry battalion formed a phalanx and assembled in the open space outside the camp.
Mirabo Plenkovic reappeared in front of Jerome Paterson and reported to Jerome Paterson: "The entire battalion is assembled, please instruct!"
Jerome Patterson followed Mirabeau Plenkovic out of the camp and looked at the full 960-person camp outside the camp. With a satisfied smile on his face, he nodded to Mirabeau. Plenkovich gave the order: "Go!"
"Let's go!" Mirapo Plenkovic yelled as he turned around and trotted to the front of the phalanx.
After hearing the order of Mirabeau Plenkovich, the formations of the phalanx quickly changed their formation. They marched towards Libreville in two formations, Jerome Patterson and Mirabeau. Plenkovic rode slowly behind the line on his horse.
In this way, the entire army marched for about half an hour and arrived at the city of Libreville.
At this time, the city of Libreville also received news that Governor Jerome Patterson led an army from outside the city to enter the city. The local businessmen and residents living in Libreville were obviously caught by Jerome. Paterson's sudden deployment of troops was confused, and they also didn't understand why Governor Jerome Paterson sent troops into Libreville.
Due to the inability to get correct and useful information, rumors began to spread throughout Libreville for a time.
There are rumors that the reason why Jerome Patterson led troops into Libreville was to use the army to eliminate the local forces in Libreville.
There are rumors that the reason why Governor Jerome Patterson did this is to better search Libreville.
In short, Libreville became more and more panicked as Jerome Paterson approached step by step.
However, when the vanguard arrived in Libreville, all the rumors came to an abrupt end, as if the pause button was forced.
The soldiers of the Foreign Legion who entered the city began to occupy the streets of Libreville, centered on the Governor's Palace, under the orders of their superiors.
Each street was guarded by two soldiers, and a battalion of 960 men soon occupied a third of Libreville.
During the military occupation of the streets of Libreville, no one dared to resist the operation.
Those drunkards who boasted that they were the strongest explorers in the tavern on weekdays trembled in fear in front of real guns.
After doing all this, Mirabo Plenkovic came to Jerome Paterson again and reported to Jerome Paterson: "Your Excellency Governor, our troops are all in place! "
"Thank you for your hard work!" Jerome Patterson patted Mirabo Plenkovic on the shoulder and said to him.
"Your Excellency the Governor, what else do we need to do?" Mirapo Plenkovic asked.
"No need, it's enough to leave the army on standby!" Jerome Patterson said lightly to Mirabo Plenkovic with a confident smile on his face.
"Yes!" Mirabo Plenkovic obeyed Jerome Patterson's order and put the troops occupying the street on standby.
More than an hour later, Jerome Patterson, who was sitting in the Governor's office, received a report from Rastigne.
Lastigne told Jerome Paterson that the merchants living in Libreville hoped to have a dialogue with the Governor.
"Is it finally here?" Jerome Patterson murmured in a low voice, then turned to Rastigne and responded, "Let them come over!"
"Yes!" Rastigne turned to leave, and after a while, several businessmen led by Rastey came to Jerome Patterson.
Jerome Patterson hurriedly got up, pretending to be ignorant and surprised at the businessman: "Why are you all here! Is there something wrong?"
More than a dozen businessmen showed a smirk on their faces after hearing what Jerome Patterson said.
"What do you mean by laughing?" Jerome Patterson pretended to be annoyed, frowned and said to more than a dozen businessmen: "Is there anything wrong with you? If it's okay, leave immediately! If there is something wrong , just tell me something right away!"
Seeing Jerome Paterson's unhappy businessman, he hurriedly said that he had something to do.
"Listen!" Jerome Patterson paused the conversation, and then reprimanded the merchants present: "How do you have such an unruly conversation, let me know what you are trying to do.
Now I give you five minutes and you choose someone who can represent all of you to talk to me! "
Five minutes later, the businessman finally elected a representative, and this representative was the gentleman who had given the mansion to Jerome Paterson as the governor's palace.
"Tell me! When is it?" Jerome Patterson asked the gentleman with a smile.
"Your Excellency the Governor, why did you send so many soldiers into Libreville!" The gentleman asked Jerome Paterson in a low voice.
"You mean I don't have the right to transfer troops into Libreville?" Jerome Patterson responded to the gentleman in a slightly displeased tone.
"No... No!" The gentleman trembled in his heart, and quickly said to Jerome Patterson: "At any time, Your Excellency Governor Governor, you have the right to transfer troops into this city! We also warmly welcome Your Excellency Governor Governor. , to be able to send troops into Libreville to guide us!
Do you say so! "
After the businessman behind the gentleman heard his words, he also said nonsense like "Yes, yes" to Jerome Paterson.
Jerome Patterson, who had seen through the weak side of Libreville's merchants, showed a touch of contempt in his eyes. He said to everyone present with a strong tone, "The reason why I sent troops into the city is to prevent accidents in the future. occur!"
"Accident?!!" The businessmen present couldn't help but stunned, they were afraid that Jerome Paterson would be rough on the city.
"That's right! I will publish a "Colonial Safety and Hygiene Regulations and Regulations" in the near future! I hope that the entire city will follow the regulations by then!" Jerome Paterson explained to the merchants present.
The businessmen present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard that only a document was issued.
However, Jerome Patterson's next sentence made the hearts of the businessmen present stuck in their throats again, "I know that the people behind Libreville are talking about me, they are the governor of running water, and you are Libreville. Burwell's true ruler!"
"Don't dare!" The gentleman lowered his head and replied to Jerome Paterson. He didn't dare to say that the Bonaparte family was the governor of the running water. "We are just..."
Before the gentleman could finish speaking, Jerome Paterson interrupted again forcefully: "Listen to me!"
The gentleman immediately shut up and stood silently in place.
Jerome Patterson said again: "But I, the running governor, want to make some real achievements, so that I can rise! Do you understand what I mean?"
The gentleman nodded in understanding.
Jerome Paterson spoke to the gentleman again and continued: "So I have to increase the city's financial revenue, expand our occupation area, and bring all the surrounding land under our control.
At the same time reduce the death rate of the whole city, make it a benchmark... Can you see what I mean? "
"Understood!" The gentleman immediately responded to Jerome Patterson: "We will definitely actively cooperate with the Governor's policy!"
"Yeah! You can understand!" Jerome Patterson was very satisfied with their attitude of keeping abreast of current affairs, "In a few days, my safety and hygiene regulations will be issued! At that time, I hope you can support me a lot. "
"Please rest assured, we will actively cooperate with your actions!" The gentleman hurriedly assured Jerome Paterson. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"That's good!" Jerome Patterson patted the gentleman on the shoulder and said, "I look forward to your performance!"
In this way, Libreville's forces reached an agreement with Jerome Patterson, and when the merchant turned to leave, Jerome Patterson said to the merchant again: "That's right! Some of the taxes you owe the government are some of them. If you have time, you can make up for it! I am not willing to urge you again and again!"
"Yes! Yes!" The merchants said they would make up the payment as soon as possible.
In the next few days, Jerome Patterson and Dean Auster have been discussing the safety and health regulations of the colony, and those who owe taxes also paid the arrears on time.
A week later, the first edition of the "Colonial Safety and Health Regulations" appeared. The main content of this edition was how to prevent and treat common diseases in Western Africa such as malaria and cholera. At the same time, it called on the colonists to develop the habit of bathing frequently, drinking hot water, and eliminating mosquitoes.
When Jerome Paterson showed them the content, the merchants' faces showed embarrassment.
There's nothing wrong with the Jerome Paterson rules, but they're a bit too much.
"Your Excellency Governor, can you appropriately reduce some regulations!" the businessman suggested.
"No! This is already the simplest version!" Jerome Patterson firmly refused.
The businessman had to give up the idea of arguing with Jerome Patterson.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
