Driven out of Hungary, the three turned to Vienna. On 15 September 1848 they founded the first Slovak National Council there; four days later, on the square at Myjava, it declared the Slovaks free of the Hungarian government and called them to arms. Some six hundred volunteers marched in that first campaign and were pushed back into Moravia within a fortnight; a second went out that winter and occupied Turčiansky Svätý Martin, Prešov and Košice, and a third fought on until the Hungarian surrender in August 1849. The corps was disbanded at Pressburg on 21 November 1849 — and Vienna, which had been glad enough to use the volunteers, gave the Slovaks almost nothing in return. The next generation drew the obvious lesson: this nation would have to be built with schools and books rather than with rifles.Vyhnaní z Uhorska sa všetci traja obrátili na Viedeň. Pätnásteho septembra 1848 tam založili prvú Slovenskú národnú radu; o štyri dni neskôr na myjavskom námestí vyhlásila, že Slováci sa vymaňujú spod uhorskej vlády, a povolala ich do zbrane. V prvej výprave pochodovalo asi šesťsto dobrovoľníkov a do dvoch týždňov ich zatlačili späť na Moravu; druhá vyrazila v zime a obsadila Turčiansky Svätý Martin, Prešov aj Košice, tretia bojovala až do maďarskej kapitulácie v auguste 1849. Zbor rozpustili v Prešporku 21. novembra 1849 — a Viedeň, ktorá dobrovoľníkov ochotne využila, dala Slovákom na oplátku takmer nič. Ďalšia generácia si z toho odniesla jasné poučenie: tento národ bude treba stavať školami a knihami, nie puškami.
