In the middle of the night, there was mourning in the Sardinian barracks.
Falsely reporting military information requires military law. Since the losses are heavy, there must be losses.
No poison, no husband, kindness and no command of soldiers, if he can climb to this position, Major General Will will naturally not be a soft-hearted person.
In order to give an explanation to the above, Major General Will had to strengthen his offensive efforts in the afternoon.
The veterans of the Sardinian Kingdom are still very heroic. Their sense of belonging to the country is much stronger than that of the Lombards, and the battle in the afternoon is much more tragic.
Counting the casualties, Major General Will waved his hand and added all the battle losses to the morning battle. More than 300 people died and more than 800 people were injured, which can barely be regarded as heavy casualties.
The senior officers of the second division headed by Major General Will can explain it, but the morale of the army has also dropped to the extreme.
Without contrast, there is no harm. Italians are good at learning, especially the old fritters in the army, they quickly learned the advanced experience of their companions.
Don't think about keeping it secret if there are too many people. The "Battlefield Survival Manual" has spread in the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia at a rapid speed.
Perhaps the commercial atmosphere was too strong, and these soldiers quickly accepted this battlefield life-saving manual happily.
Together with Franz's wonderful theory, it is also widely recognized. I don't know when it started, a voice appeared in the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia - don't work for the capitalists.
Italy has been divided for so long that ordinary people have forgotten that they are Italian and have been replaced by Sardinians, Genoese, Lombards…
What does unification do for them? It seems that the capitalists are the most profitable. The unified Italy allows them to have a larger market for exploitation, but they, the bloody soldiers who fought for the unification, get nothing!
The nationalism of the Kingdom of Sardinia has awakened, and the same messy thoughts have also emerged. Italians are good at thinking, and they begin to plan for themselves when they think too much.
Unconsciously, the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia has undergone transformation, and the bravery and fighting began to leave them.
This is also an Italian tradition, commonly known as the "three-minute heat". Once they see bloodshed, their passion is extinguished. The "Battlefield Survival Manual" just found a reason for them to convince themselves.
…
The general headquarters of the Sardinian army in Venice, Marshal Bardorio doesn't know yet, the army under him is undergoing a magnificent transformation, and now he is having a headache for the Tuscan people's letter for help.
For the positive performance of the Tuscan army, he still appreciates it. The Austrian war needs such activists as cannon fodder.
"Frontline battle report, the Tuscan army was attacked by the main Austrian army and asked us for help. What do you think should be done?"
A middle-aged officer frowned and said, "Your Excellency Marshal, the Tuscans are about 30 kilometers away from us. If you count the time to deliver the letter, the battle should have happened half a day ago.
If we send troops immediately, we will be able to reach the battlefield within a day at the earliest. It doesn't matter whether we can catch up or not, if we break our military deployment, the next battle will be difficult to fight! "
Obviously, he is not ready to rescue the Tuscans.
Allies, isn't it just for betrayal
Besides, when did the kingdom of Sardinia and Tuscany become true allies
As long as the Kingdom of Sardinia wants to unify the Italian region, and sooner or later the Grand Duchy of Tuscany will fight against each other, isn't it the enemy to ask for help at this time
"Jackson, this is not good! If we don't send troops to rescue the Tuscans, it will cause very serious diplomatic trouble, and the Papal States and Naples will also feel sad, and we will fight alone in this war!" A middle-aged officer objected
"Cansandos, this war is our home ground, and these allies are unreliable.
The Kingdom of Naples did send 40,000 troops, but where are these 40,000 troops? Is there a regiment for the vanguard they sent
The Tuscans were really positive, but we all knew that their commander was a self-righteous idiot with no military common sense.
Such pig teammates, apart from causing trouble, what else can you expect from them
There is also the division of the Papal State. In fact, everyone knows that they only have more than 7,000 people, and they are dawdling along the way. Where does it mean to fight? "Jackson's middle-aged officer objected.
…
Marshal Bardolio nodded, military can not count on allies, Austria's influence in the Italian state is too great, even if they use public opinion to force countries to send troops, everyone still does not work hard.
Now that the Italian region has changed again, the Papal States and the conservatives of Naples are recovering, and maybe these allies will withdraw.
"What you said makes sense, so let's send someone to tell the Tuscans to keep them waiting for help, and we will send reinforcements as soon as possible!"
There is no doubt that Marshal Bardorio is selling his teammates. Send troops to rescue as soon as possible, when exactly
If they really wanted to rescue the Tuscans, it was time for them to go out in a starry night instead of stalling for time.
…
On the front line, General Maherd, the Tuscan coach, is no longer as high-spirited as he used to be, and is disgraced and carried out a "strategic shift" with the soldiers.
This battle can't be fought. Originally, the Tuscan army's combat effectiveness was not good, and the enemy on the opposite side was twice as strong. After a few hours of persistent fighting, they were beaten and collapsed.
Maherd took part of the defeated soldiers with him, and turned around and ran away without looking back. If he lost the war, he lost, and he was not ashamed to lose to the Austrians. He didn't want to stay as a prisoner.
As a thorn in the king's eyes and a thorn in the flesh, if it falls into the hands of the Austrians, if the two sides cannot make a py transaction, he will be wiped out. Maherd does not dare to test the integrity of the king.
"General Maherd, Marshal Bardorio told us to stand by and wait for help, they will send troops as soon as possible!" said a young officer in surprise.
"Is it enough to receive a letter of help, did the Sardinian army send troops immediately?" Maher asked with concern
"No, they held an hour-long military meeting, and then said that they would send troops as soon as possible. They might have already left by this time, right?" the young officer said uncertainly.
Maherd's face changed greatly, he reacted quickly, and ordered: "Order the troops to speed up, our allies are about to arrive, everyone come to the front and join them!"
ally? There is also a fart ally, such a perfunctory answer can fool these second-year teenagers, but not an old fritter like Maherd.
Soldiers are very fast, saving people is like putting out a fire, where is there a slow discussion
Since there are no allies coming, of course we have to run faster. Boosting morale is also essential.
