After the Austrian army abandoned Lombardy on April 1, 1848, the Sardinian Kingdom's army, which was clamoring, quickly completed its replacement.
In the cheers of the people, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Sardinia entered Lombardy without any blood, as if the good days they were looking for were coming.
Before they left, Marshal Radkis helped propagate them. In everyone's mind, it seemed that the Kingdom of Sardinia could meet the interests of all people, including Republicans.
The tricolor flag fluttered in the wind, and the people in the streets and alleys congratulated each other.
"Long live the Republic!"
Throughout Lombardy, a temporary government headed by Kazati was established.
The Austrian army seems to be moving too quickly, and even the political prisoners in the prison have not had time to take them away. These people have become part of the interim government.
If anyone notices, the granary in Milan is empty. After the war between Sardinia and Austria, Marshal Radsky solicited food from Lombardy on the grounds of unified food distribution.
Due to time constraints, the rural areas did not have time to implement, but the grain in Milan was indeed concentrated.
The Austrian army secretly transported a part of it out of the city, and the rest was naturally poured with oil, and it was done by adding another fire.
The food is gone, and the people are not panicked at all. Hasn't the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia already entered the city?
Which one?
Prior to the withdrawal of the Austrian army, there were rumors that King Charles wanted everyone to burn the food in the city and force the Austrians to withdraw, so that Milan would not be destroyed in the war.
Therefore, Marshal Radkis sent people to burn most of the food two days in advance, and the Austrian soldiers also called on the people to fight the fire.
The people of Milan, who are eager for independence, will naturally not give in. Everyone chooses to reject it very heroically. Even if they are beaten, they still do not give in.
In the end, they won, successfully burned the granary, forced the Austrian army back, and saved Milan.
The spring breeze President Kazati just had a less friendly talk with General Bardolio of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and directly lost his good mood.
The timid Sardinian army did not dare to chase the Austrian army, it just lost the face of the great Italian nation.
This time, unlike in history, the Austrian troops evacuated themselves, but they were not driven out. The rebels in the city have long been wiped out.
The army under Kazati's interim government is still being formed, and even he himself just came out of the prison.
Under the roof, people had to bow their heads.
The interim government does not have the capital to talk to the Kingdom of Sardinia. People do not chase the enemy, and Kazati has no way. The interim government cannot send troops to pursue the enemy.
The new Minister of the Interior, Zilaya, hurriedly came over and said, "His President, there is no food in the city. We have no ability to provide food and grass for our allies!"
This is an embarrassing problem. They should have discovered these problems, but unfortunately, they were in prison when the food was set on fire.
Coupled with no experience in governing, everyone is celebrating for the hard-won victory. Who remembers caring about food?
Qazati asked whimsically, "What should I do? I just promised them that they will provide food for the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia. Can we collect a batch of food emergency from the people?"
"This is impossible, His Excellency the President. In order to keep the city of Milan, the Austrians have collected food for the whole city. All people have to supply food according to the rationing system. They can only distribute food for two days at a time.
In order to defeat the Austrians, the Kingdom of Sardinia sent spies to burn down the food in Milan. Our people also cooperated with their operations.
In fact, the Austrian army in Milan was not without World War I, or because we burned the granary, they fled! "
Feeling tricked, Kazati's anger can no longer be suppressed, cursing: "Damn! The Sardinians are intentional. Just now they didn't mention anything about cooking. I promised to enter the city. The army provides forage!
They are deliberately watching our jokes! No, things are not so simple. In the talk just now, the Sardinians intentionally annexed Lombardy. This is their conspiracy! "
After hearing this news, Zilaya was so scared that his face turned blue. Now the interim government does not have any chips. If the Sardinians use food as a bargain, they will not agree.
Quickly said, "Her President, we must take action. When the food is set on fire, they have promised to provide us with food, otherwise our people will not cooperate with them!"
Kazati also responded. At this time, the problem could not be solved by scolding people. Even if they were merged into the Kingdom of Sardinia, they had to sell for a good price. It was impossible for the Kingdom of Sardinia to be cheaper than this simple.
"You're right, immediately spread the news and inform our people to be vigilant. I am worried that the Sardinians will become embarrassed and angry and start working on us!"
...
At this time, the King of Sardinia, Charlie Albert, was still sinking into the blood to gain the joy of Lombardy.
The high ranks of the Kingdom of Sardinia are also celebrating. Otherwise, they are thinking about how to annex Lombardy. In short, everyone is very optimistic.
I didn't even notice that a black pot fell from the sky. Everyone is a politician, and the way of looking at problems is naturally different.
The intentional abandonment of Lombardy is not something a politician can think of. We need to know that the current situation in Austria is not very good. The normal way to open it is to focus on suppressing the rebellion and killing hundreds of people to scare its ambitions.
The Sardinian Army Barracks in Milan has arrived now, but the food promised by President Gazzati is still not in place.
It doesn't matter that the high-ranking officers are already invited to the banquet by celebrities in the city. No matter how lack of food, these big men will not be hungry.
European aristocracy is a nest, this sentence is no problem at all, the nobles in Milan and the nobles of the Kingdom of Sardinia, there is also a strip of water.
Colonel Manstu left behind, even if he had a headache, when it was time to eat, the soldiers looked at him? If we were not hungry together, maybe these soldiers would be soaring.
Even so, Colonel Manstu's life was not easy. While appeasing the army to calm them down, he sent some people to urge the provisional government to send food quickly.
The Austrians withdrew too quickly and they entered the city early without much preparation. Materials were left in the campsite twenty miles outside the city. At this time, it was natural to reach out to the interim government.
