Chapter 47: First Italian-Austrian War breaks out

On March 27, 1848, the Vienna government announced the abolition of local tariffs and prohibited local governments from collecting tariffs in any name. The Hungarian representative in Vienna slammed the door on the spot.

Don't be surprised. Although the Hungarians have proposed to abolish local tariffs in the conditions, their request is that Austria abolish unilaterally, rather than saying that Hungary will also abandon Austrian tariffs.

Otherwise, there is no need to argue about this issue. As early as the Maria Reformation of 1795, the abolition of local tariffs was proposed. By 1848, it had been abolished elsewhere.

The tariff was extended by Hungary because of obstruction by interest groups. The truth of the matter and external propaganda are basically two concepts. The Spring and Autumn styles are also applicable in Europe.

Otherwise, there is no need to wait until the Hungarian revolution is suppressed before the Vienna government abolishes tariffs with Hungary.

...

Wave after wave is rising again!

The problems in the Czech region have not yet been resolved. Another bad news came to Vienna, and the Kingdom of Sardinia declared war on Austria!

On the evening of March 23, King Sardinia's Charlie Albert delivered a speech on the square of the Royal Palace to declare war on Austria. Because of the war, the news arrived in Vienna on the 27th.

"Are we sending reinforcements to Marshal Radkis?" Franz asked

After suppressing the rebellion in Vienna, the Austrian government deployed 50,000 troops to reinforce Marshal Radkis.

This was originally prepared by Franz in order to deal with the war with the Kingdom of Sardinia, otherwise the suppression of the Austrian Italian rebellion would not be necessary.

If there is no reinforcements, it is estimated that it will be the same as in history. Marshal Radsky relies on a small number of troops and the Italians to fight the Italians after the domestic reinforcements arrive.

The situation is different now. The Vienna rebellion has been suppressed in advance. Other rebellions have not yet erupted. Austria still has the power to invest in the Italian battlefield.

"I arrived in the Venice area the afternoon before yesterday, and now I have started suppressing the rebellion!" Felix said with a pale expression.

A small Sardinian kingdom, at this time also dared to come to challenge Austria, this is just too old to break ground.

Franz shook his head. This time the Italians opposed the Olympics, but it was not just a Sardinian kingdom. The Papal States, the Principality of Tuscany, and the Kingdom of Naples were forced to participate in the war.

The ambassadors of Austria to Italy's states have all heard the news that they should strengthen their vigilance at home.

"Send the order to Marshal Radkis, let him watch the fight, where the fight is, and if you need reinforcements, let him wait another month!" Franz thought about it and said

In military matters, he did not discuss it with the cabinet. These people are all laymen, and military literacy is probably not as good as him.

The risks of lay leaders and insiders are too great. After the revolution, the telegraph lines in Vienna and Italy were damaged.

Franz is not clear about the specific situation on the Italian battlefield. The only thing he can do now is to delegate power and provide logistical support for Marshal Radkis.

In history, he suppressed this Italian rebellion and defeated the troops of the Italian states. Now Austria has a greater advantage and has no reason to lose.

Since the suppression of the Vienna rebellion, the Austrian government has expanded its military preparations. In addition to suppressing the revolution, it is also worried that foreign forces will take advantage of the fire.

Sometimes, Franz really wanted to send troops directly to Tutu, the nobles and capitalists who might rebel, and then carry out a land reform, and everything was solved.

Unfortunately, this is impossible. Even the nobles who participated in the rebellion must be handed over to the aristocratic council, let alone those who have not yet rebelled?

So far, there are only twelve rebellious nobles who have been executed by the aristocratic parliament. The crime is actually to kill the nobles with despicable means in an attempt to confuse them to seize their title!

Well, Franz has nothing to say, this is the result of the great efforts of Grand Prince Louis in the aristocratic parliament because of the pain of bereavement.

Of course, Franz did not do nothing, at least the 28 nobles identified as extinct, all property was temporarily returned to the state, and all sideline heirs must not inherit the title until they have proved that they have nothing to do with their killings. .

Unfortunately, this is an unsolvable question. As long as an application for inheritance is made, there is a motive for committing the crime.

You did not participate in the rebellion, did your relatives and friends participate? Really not. Your neighbours participated, and perhaps someone you know did, and they could not elute your suspicions.

Franz did not make his own head, and determined that their right to elute suspicions was given to the aristocratic council. As long as nobles who can surpass eight floors have found that you have no suspicion and are the legal first heirs, they can inherit the title.

The relationship between the nobles is too chaotic. There are a lot of relatives with inheritance rights. Anyone has the problem of red eye disease. It is difficult to smooth the internal problems.

As long as there is a problem with the first heir, then the title and fiefdom will be the second heir.

Because of the marriage of the nobility, the first and second heirs are often not a family, and may even be hostile, which is even more difficult.

Whoever does not have a group of relatives and friends, it is not difficult at all to want to inherit the title, but to prevent others from inheriting the title.

...

"His Royal Highness, if all the major powers in Italy participate in the battle, Marshal Radkis's strength will probably be insufficient, should we draw another support from another place?" Felix suggested.

"The Italians are not monolithic. They are forced to send troops by public opinion, and they are still bargaining.

I guess they won't launch an attack unless the Revolutionaries agree to merge with them.

In the Italian region, we have already deployed 40,000 troops, plus these 50,000 reinforcements. We don't need to defeat the enemy, but dealing with the enemy for a period of time is not a problem.

At present, the domestic situation is also unstable. If we continue to draw troops, in the event of rebellion in other areas, we will be exhausted.

Marshal Radkis can be told not to care about gains and losses in one city and one place, as long as he can finally win, it is okay to lose some places now. "

Franz still resisted the temptation to beat the Italian quickly, and chose to play steadily.

Historically, Marshal Radkis did not have any preparations. When the Vienna government ordered the abandonment of Italy, they were able to continue to fight, and now there is no reason to lose the reinforcements.

Franz didn't know what the combat effectiveness of the Austrian army was, but thinking about the record of the Italian army made him feel relieved.

Austria and Italy have fought so many times in history, except that the original owner personally commanded and the French-Italian coalition lost PK, at other times, Austria smashed Italy, including the rotten Austro-Hungarian Empire in later generations, and it was also possible to slay Italy .
