Hoche, Louis Lazare

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.04 sec.

Hoche, Louis Lazare (1768–1797)

French general. He enlisted in the French army in 1784, joining the National Guard in 1792. Having repulsed the Duke of York, he commanded the forces on the Moselle and drove the Austrians from Alsace in 1793. He headed an unsuccessful expedition to Ireland in 1796. Hoche won several victories over the Austrians again in 1797, but the armistice at Leoben checked his successes, and he died soon after.
