For a whole winter, the construction of the 1st Brigade in the Bois de Boulogne never stopped.

From the original Black Swan Castle to a well-equipped barracks that can accommodate nearly 10,000 people, to three orphanage shelters of various sizes, to museums built specifically to store works of art, and libraries for soldiers to borrow, as well as sports fields, bars, and restaurants of various sizes......

The Bois de Boulogne has now developed into a relatively well-equipped community.

This is the equivalent of a temporary barracks in Capi, which is a bit monotonous compared to the rest of Paris, lacking large shopping malls.

However, most of the supplies used by the 1st Brigade were directly distributed by the French War Department, and the soldiers had no shopping needs at all, so shopping malls were really unnecessary.

There is also a clothing store under the name "Hunter", and all the clothes sold under the "Hunter" brand of the "LLL" company.

This is a brand founded specifically for men, and the use of zippers as a selling point in clothing is more convenient and faster than traditional buttons, especially on the front of trousers, zippers have incomparable advantages. As soon as the "hunter" costume was withdrawn, it was widely acclaimed, especially jeans and jackets, which have now become popular symbols in Paris.

At present, "Hunter" clothing has four stores in Paris, and will be fully rolled out in large and medium-sized cities in France in the near future.

This can be regarded as an alternative kind of cultural marketing, after all, the "hunter" costume is the standard civilian wear of the First Brigade, which has been distributed to the troops as part of the welfare, and if these costumes can be sold well in France, then it is undoubtedly equivalent to the best publicity for the First Brigade.

It's like the Persian Gulf now, when oil is not found there, it's a wild place. It's the same with the Bois de Boulogne, when it's just a forest, no one pays attention to it, but when there's a relatively complete barracks, the Boulogne forest enters the eyes of some well-intentioned people.

It was a great thing that the Americans had landed in France and were ready to come in for the war, and it was expected that over the next two years, millions of Americans would arrive in France. With so many Americans staying in Paris, there must always be a place to live, so it became one of the alternatives to the American camp.

"Lieutenant Colonel, what are you doing here?" Regardless of whether the other party's military rank is higher than his own, when facing people who are hostile to him, Qin Zhiyuan is always unceremonious.

"General, I am on the orders of the Paris City Defense Command to requisition this place for military purposes. We ask for your cooperation with us, this is an official letter from the headquarters of the Algerian Foreign Legion to your ministry, please read it. "Elton is on business.

"Do you know what this place is?" Qin Zhiyuan did not accept the official letter, but continued to stare at Elton's eyes and question.

"Of course, I know." Forced by Qin Zhiyuan's momentum, Elton subconsciously took half a step back.

"Now that you know what you're doing? The 1st Brigade of the Foreign Legion is stationed here, and use your dog brain filled with intrigue, think clearly, this is originally a military use, and you have to be conscripted for the military, is your head filled with cow dung? ”

"Sir, please be careful with your words." Elton's face turned red, and he shouted like an enraged Gallic rooster: "This is an official document signed by General Aiken, do you want to disobey?" ”

Disobedience, disobedience, really uncreative!

"General Aiken, even if General Aiken himself is here, I will ask him that! Want us to go? Very well, you first find a place to house my troops, and before that, please put away your greed. If I see you again in the Bois de Boulogne, you will surely get a taste of the little black house. Qin Zhiyuan roared viciously, like a lion, much more powerful than Elton's rooster.

"You, you're contemptuous of your superiors, and I represent the Paris City Defense Command...... "Elton Waiting.

While Elton was speaking, a large group of military vehicles arrived at the Black Swan Castle, and a carload of soldiers assembled in front of the car under the command of the officer, and the sound of passwords in different tones began to fall, Chinese, French, English, and so on. If you listen carefully, you can even tell that it is a dialect from Shandong, Hebei, Henan and other places, and it is very lively, and the silent Bois de Boulogne immediately becomes noisy.

The soldiers lined up in front of the military vehicles according to the password, and after the soldiers got out of the car, the military vehicles went to the front of the barracks to line up. Someone commanded in the parking lot, all military vehicles must be oriented in the same direction, the front of the car must be parked in a straight line, and the distance of all military workshops must be exactly equal, which seems to represent discipline and neatness.

The soldiers lined up with their heads held high and their eyes not squinted, their rifles on their shoulders, one hand holding the strap on their chests, the other arm hanging naturally close to their bodies, and their middle fingers pressed against the seams of their trousers. With the sound of the password, the soldiers automatically lined up neatly, and the sound of reporting the number was concise, loud and powerful.

Just by listening, you know that this is a well-trained army.

Elton was speechless at this point, and they usually conducted formation formation training within the gendarmerie, but it was just a formality, and it was never regarded as the main training item. The combat skills of the gendarmes may be good, but it will take 100 years for them to line up in such a neat line.

It was only two or three minutes, maybe only a dozen seconds, Elton didn't know how long time had passed, and the momentum of the fight had been taken away by the First Brigade, so he couldn't give up.

"Listen, from now on, the range of the checkpoint will be expanded outward again, to a kilometer away, and this area will be completely demarcated as a training ground for our tank troops. In order to keep the tactics secret, all unrelated people are forbidden to enter the military restricted area, and if someone breaks in and does not obey the command, they can be killed. Qin Zhiyuan was ruthless and gave orders in front of Elton.

"Yes!" The lieutenant saluted, looking eager to try, and looked at Elton with a malicious look.

Qin Zhiyuan doesn't even look at Elton, this kind of role, Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about it anymore. If that General Aiken came over in person, Qin Zhiyuan might have done something perfunctory, as for Elton, hehe.

"Lao Chen, gather your tankmen and prepare to go to the Renault factory to receive equipment, and go right now." Qin Zhiyuan continued to command.

With the arrival of the Americans, Qin Zhiyuan felt an inexplicable sense of crisis. Compared with the current First Brigade, the Americans are even more lacking in equipment, no matter what kind of equipment they have, Qin Zhiyuan doesn't want to delay and cause all the tanks that originally belonged to him to be wrapped up.

Now it's a time of war, and anything can happen.
