The speed of its promotion in the rank of General had been the price of true military talents and a brilliant value which sometimes went to the audacity. One aspired, nevertheless, that it(he) had neither disinterestedness, nor humanity, nor rise in the character. His(her) brothers in arms went even as far as admitting as it was not only eager for fame. We would be tried to believe that this judgment is nothing less than austere by calling back(reminding) us the charge which pressed on him during the plunder of Orval's abbey. He was able to persuade the police superintendent(commissioner) of the Agreement of his innocence. After the presidency of the council of war, the Directory gives him(her) a command around of Paris. On November 23, 1795, exactly new(nine) month after her marriage, his wife gave birth to a small girl who would remain unique(only) and would be named FranÁoise-Marie-Louise. A short time later the general Loison received the order to serve the army of Italy but he did not go(surrender) to it. The paternel instinct taking him(it), maybe , on its fighter's vocation. A good rest, within its family made(did) him(her) the biggest good.

Most of the big battles were often gained(won) because of the strategic errors of the opponent. It is the same there in the conversation. The errors of judgment in the exchange of the comments among interlocutors make(do) that the guile takes him(it), mostly , on the sincerity. The bluff, gets the upper hand over the scale of values. The penalties of the high command further to the indisciplines committed by Loison were often raised thanks to the gifts(donations) of dissimulation of the General. The gifts(donations) paralyzed it often, the walking of the justice and its "smudges" often passed in aid of the doubt. On this refusal to join its(his) unity, it(he) was only , put in the treatment of reform. LOISON pulls(fires) his(her) hairpin of the game(set) whereas Bonaparte does not count already any more its victories in Italy. Pichegru, as for him, intends to knock down the Directory. It will be a failure(defeat). Loison in forced leave has the time to assess all whom(that) it stored and for what concerns him(it) it is only beginning the beginning of the immense fortune which it prepares to build; it is true that he is starving.

On September 4, 1797 (in Fructidor 18) after the elections favorable to the royalist, Shakes is unfortunate that coup d'Ètat was confided(entrusted) to Augereau. Fortunately for the Directory Hoche will not put its threat to translate its members in front of the courts. He will die, a short time later. Bonaparte, far from Paris, threatens the Directory to change politics(policy) where it will come himself to put of the order with its armed with Italy and will come by this fact, he says, to conquer the ignoramuses. He will always prefer moreover the company of the intellectuals to that of the servicemen which too distrusts.

The general Loison who was, lastly in the 17-th division will be soon, put back(handed) in activity, on January 16, 1798. Between Western Europe and central Europe, Switzerland, enclosed continental state, multiplies its geographic contrasts. Country, essentially mountain, Jura and alpine, the climate of low mountain range is much rougher than the height would want him(it). With his(its,her) fresh(cool) summers, covered with snow winters, villages at the massive houses defended(forbidden) well against the cold, live some breeding and some exploitation of the wood. The main cities Zurich, Geneva, Basel and Lausanne, the languages: German, French, Italian and romanche. With valleys grow grey, the canton of Tessin, establishes(constitutes) the Southern hillside of the Swiss Alps. Damaged by terraces, blocked by bolts convenient to the ambushes. The pastoral life and the agriculture are important at this end of the XVIII-th century. The echo of the French revolution then, in 1796 , the conquest of Lombardie by Bonaparte overexcited the patriots who overturned in 1789, the regime of Baillis. Deep echos were agreed in all Switzerland. From January, 1799, the general Loison, was put back(handed) in activity to the army of Helvetia commanded(ordered) by MassÈna. The Directory is decided has to lead a politics(policy) of territorial expansion. France wishes to control especially collars and especially to remove from Switzerland strong silver rates. The excuse of the intervention is found by the action of the emigrated of Paris or by the so-called calls(appeals) to the liberation of the aristocratic yoke of the Jacobins of the corner(place) among whom B’lois Och. In January, on 1798, city Vaudoises lifts up itself and proclaims the Republic AlÈmanique, immediately occupied by the French and justifying of new empiÍtrements of these. The liberal revolution gains(wins) all the subject countries. The central cantons resist obstinately. The successive defeats pull(entail) Uri and Unterwald's surrender. French break hard the starts of Midwald. Switzerland is reorganized as the other republics on the French model.

In these circumstances the general Loison lives to open in front of him a vaster career, he made(did), under the general MassÈna, the campaign of Helvetia and he bound(connected) his successes to his name. The brigade was a part of the division Lecourbe, distinguished itself in the affair(business) of the prairial 10 where it hunted(chased away) Madarenerthal's Austrian and to that of the 14 where the enemy, attacked(affected) to Wasen, was pushed away(repelled) up to Gueshen's delý, with loss of eight hundred killed or hurt(damaged) and fifteen hundred prisoners. The general Loison loaded(charged) several times in the head of his troops and was reached(affected) by a ball in this last fight. In this difficult campaign, the value of the soldier was always not the most necessary virtue, exhausted by fatigue and by needs, surrounded with enemies, obliged to bivouac in the middle of snows and abysses, the famine, the horrible famine, required(demanded) from him another kind(genre) of courage and one would not too much know how to rent(praise) this heroism which it showed in these difficult circumstances. The body of the general LOISON made especially famous in the middle of the cliffs of Switzerland. It was he who supported, in the cracks of the Saint Gothard, several fights which deserved a vaster theater. Two troop units also exhausted by the famine fought in the heart of caves. The small river Reuss which pours by muttering at feet of its cliffs received the Austrian corpses which French winners(conquerors) precipitated of their summit. To there, the general Loison had been never beaten, one lives to support him(it,her) this reputation in the business(cases) which followed and, particularly , in those of the 11 and 12 thermidor and 27 , 28 and 29 of the same month.

The French activity(occupation) ends in an authoritarian reorganization of the unitarian Helvetian Republic under the hegemony of the Directory. Later, Bonaparte, from 1803 , by the act of mediation, will restore a Confederacy of 19 cantons but, in this year of 1799, he is in Egypt. In October it(he) will return in France where the moderate will confide(entrust) him(her) the care of getting rid of the BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
