Bah! Those who object are Nothing but traitors to France and the Emperor, and thus they must be purged for the good of France!

The same could be said for everyone else, who want the republicans (or rather the jacobians) to stay in power.

Hey now, I thought you go to the Irish. The potato famine hasn't happened yet.

It's a 50-50 thing. Wait does Britain own at this point?

Technically yes.
They have just put down the rebellion of 1789.

Well I mean if we want to stir the pot and distract Britain, there's an option. Cause discontent in Ireland.

As much as that would be a good idea, we're going to need to do more then stir the pot.
After all, they need training, guns and a leader.

So I'm guessing that rebellion hasn't happened yet?

Great so we can support it, or cause it to fire earlier. The French did support it IOTL so I see no reason they wouldn't again.

Hopefully, not as an occupant.
Edit: But leading a prison break would be awesome.

We're too pretty for prison.

Yeah... That might not stop the russians.
Especially if they hate our guts from kicking their ass.

Is it just law that every Female French Commander ends up a POW of some hostile power?

Question on why Brian is apparently so respected by the officers, isn't this the time where literally everyone was rapidly rising through the ranks due to most of the officers fleeing? I mean, a hell of a lot of high ranking officers in the French army at that time were in their 20's. I mean Hoche was promoted to general at 25, Napoleon also around that age and a hell of a lot of other people.

3 Reasons.
1. He helped win Valmy, and even though he wasn't Therese, it got him some brownie points.
2. He's been very competent, and most people under his command (Officers and infantry/enlisted), are treated well, thanks to his excellent logistics thinking, tactical understanding, and him being... well, not a noble.
3. Really, he's also, kinda just... a decent guy to be around. He's kinda the poster boy of the French middle/working class military hero...
Not trying to be a cultural hero or such like Therese... and since he really has no real political ambitions, he's also someone a lot of young officers can work with.
(Note, this is before this coup, so perceptions of him, can, and will change)
