Chapter 64： Riding a tiger

Milan City

Marshal Bardolio has been annoyed recently. Since April 7, when the Kingdom of Sardinia announced its annexation of Lombardy, a group of democrats have rushed out to protest.

Needless to say, his marshal has no say in national affairs, not to mention the fact that these small people are sent to disperse.

Fortunately, the Austrian army has cracked down for a round, and the hard bones have been killed. People in the interim government are also buying and house arrest, house arrest and house arrest. The remaining people are just kings.

"Hello Marshal, another group of people petitioned outside, asking you to send troops to recapture Venice!" The attendant whispered.

This is not the first time a petition has appeared. A petition for independence, a petition for autonomy, a petition for increased food rations ...

In short, it doesn't matter whether Bardolio can make the decision or not, the people in Lombardy seem to identify him, and they will ask the Marshal for a petition.

The hero is not so good. In order to maintain his glorious image, Bardolio had to make a modest look.

In addition to those who asked for independence and was expelled by him, he would meet with other petitioners and explain his difficulties by the way.

For example, the fact that a soldier does not interfere in politics is the reason he uses it most often.

Much has been said, and now Bardolio himself is somewhat convinced that this is true. Recently, he rarely intervenes in government affairs in the Lombardy area, unless it is a local government person who actively seeks him.

"Let them send in a representative!" Bardario frowned.

No way, I can't escape this time. Sending troops to the Venice area was not only a political issue, but also a military issue. Now the commanders of the troops on the front line of the Kingdom of Sardinia are under his command, this time it is the right person.

Soon two students who looked like students were brought in. Bardolio's brow tightened, and the middle two teenagers had the most headache.

"Dear Marshal, my name is Rim, and he is Townsend. I'm glad to meet you!"

Looking at the excited two teenagers, Bardolio responded politely: "I'm also very glad to see you, can you show me the petition first?"

"Oh, okay!" Rem quickly answered.

After receiving the petition, Bardolio glanced quickly. This is a blood book, the content of which is very bloody, and there are dense signatures on the back. He was almost moved.

"I accepted this petition, and I will transfer it to the king as soon as possible, but when the offensive against Venice is launched, this is a military secret and I cannot disclose it.

Now we are preparing for a military offensive. Everyone knows things a while ago, because the preparation is not enough, and everyone is hungry together.

We have learned our lessons this time, so we have to prepare a little longer before the war, and we ca n’t be forced to stop military operations again because of food problems.

The total strength of the Austrians is as high as 500,000 to 600,000. Once the Venice war begins, they will definitely send reinforcements. Now I have insufficient strength.

Domestic aid is still on the way, and the recruits just recruited in Lombardy are still training, all of which take time.

However, rest assured that the ultimate victory will definitely belong to us! "

After listening to Bardolio's explanation, the two teenagers nodded continuously. They were both military whites. There was no internet in this era. The domestic situation in Austria was unclear.

According to normal thinking, it is that Austria is very powerful and can win Austrian Marshal Bardolio. That is the world's first general. He must be right.

"Victory will certainly belong to us, and we all believe in you, Marshal. You are definitely not the weakness of legends outside, they are all jealous of your talent!" Townsend panicked.

Bardario suddenly felt a group of grass-horse horses running by, could he not say it so directly, that there would be no friends.

Attacking Venice? Isn't this nonsense, really thinking that Austria is foolish?

He now has 150,000 troops in his name, nearly a third more than the Austrians on the opposite side, but the 150,000 army is too heavy, and nearly 70,000 of them are recruited locally.

The Italians have always been untrusted by the Vienna government, so the Austrian army has not held local reserves. The soldiers recruited by Bardolio are actually farmers who just put down their hoees or workers in the city.

Even the grass-roots officers have a gap. Italy is not a German region, especially Lombardy, which is heavily commercialized. The military literacy of the local nobles has plummeted.

It can be said that this temporarily integrated army was used to make up the numbers. Now even the guns in the human hands are not equipped. They are used for logistics and maintenance of local law and order.

If it were sent to the battlefield, it would be to send enemies to the enemy, the real main force of this war is the Kingdom of Sardinia.

The 80,000 Kingdom of Sardinia Army and the 100,000 Austrian Army are unreliable no matter how they look, this is why they stopped attacking.

However, the people do not know that they are simply calculating the total strength. Austria ’s army in Italy is only 100,000. Because of the suppression of the revolution, it has reduced its staff by several thousands.

With the cooperation of the 150 thousand people of the Kingdom of Sardinia, could they not win the more than 90,000 Austrian troops?

The pressure of Marshal Bardolio is not too great. The local faction in Lombardy has just turned to the Kingdom of Sardinia and is still afraid to engage in things. Now he is a student representative.

King Charlie is different. A group of various groups within the Sardinian kingdom. He only used the war to divert domestic contradictions. As a result, he overplayed. Now radical nationalists urge him to send troops to Venice every day.

This was his own pot. To alleviate domestic political pressure, King Charlie advertised that the Sardinian army defeated the Austrians in Lombardy, which led many people to think that Austria was nothing like this.

Public opinion is the easiest to fall into madness. Charlie Albert has forgotten too late, or he knows it is useless, and public opinion is not under his control at all.

Nationalism is now on the rise in Italy, and the Kingdom of Sardinia is the strongest in Italy. Nationalism is once again throbbed by the defeat of the Austrian army.

At this time, nationalism was mixed with patriotism on the verge of out of control, and someone was constantly reminding them that the Venice area was still under the rule of the Austrians.

Since the annexation of Lombardy by the Kingdom of Sardinia, all the people have been happier for the unification of Italy. At this time, the Venetian area controlled by Austria was very unsightly.

The Kingdom of Sardinia is already riding a tiger!
