Holy Roman Empire

Bardolio still underestimated the impact of defeating Austria. For political needs, King Charles directly awarded him the rank of marshal.

For the Italians, defeating Austria in this era is too exciting. If the victory continues in the future, I am afraid that the Italian states will grant him the rank of marshal.

Through the creation of the Sardinian kingdom, Bardolio soon became a hero in Italy, but this hero is not good enough to leave a stain.

For example, now that the people in Milan cannot buy food, they will ask him to solve the problem. Who asked him to be the planner to set fire to food this time?

As a hero in Italy, you have to count your words. What you promised to provide food for everyone now must be fulfilled.

General Bardolio ’s political class still passed. It ’s not true that it should be Marshal Bardolio. Although there is no official seal, it will not hurt.

The Lombardy region is also so large that it is impossible for the Austrian army to take away all the food in a short period of time. The food merchants have no more food, and the aristocratic manor will always keep part of it for themselves.

While urging domestic grain transportation, he flicked the nobility of the Lombardy region and brought some grain from their manor.

It is a pity that the light industry in Lombardy developed well in this era. Most nobles sold grain to processing plants. Now, during the spring cultivation period, there is not much grain in everyone's hands.

After searching around, Bardolio reluctantly found out that this was a bad salary, and had been searched again, how much could be left?

"My Excellency, Marshal, the domestic food has not yet been delivered. The food we collected in the city is very limited. According to the current situation, our military food can support up to three days.

The requisitioned team may have some gains, but they have been searched by the Austrians. I ’m afraid there will not be much gain in the area around Milan!Major General Manstu said frowningly (promoted)

At this time, the food of the Kingdom of Sardinia was already being transported to the city of Milan, but the transportation in Italy in this era was not very good, and the transportation capacity was very limited.

It is not so easy to meet the consumption of these hundreds of thousands of people in the city.This is just the beginning, and it will not be long before the food shortage in the countryside will also occur.

It can be said that the Kingdom of Sardinia has occupied the Lombardy region. In the short term, not only can it not increase its strength, but it is also a heavy economic burden.

Bardolio has already felt the pressure, and the democrats in Milan have asked him for independence, but he was temporarily fooled by him.

Plus at this time, they had to rely on the Kingdom of Sardinia for food shortages in the city, so that no one was making trouble. Once the crisis passed, I am afraid it was another situation.

"I will explain this to the people. Now many residents in the city still have a little food in their homes. From tomorrow, everyone will only distribute seven layers of rations.

In addition, the food collected from the surrounding areas of Milan should be able to support five or six days, and the domestic food will be almost shipped by then."Marshal Bardolio analyzed

There is no doubt that reducing the distribution of food will arouse people's dissatisfaction with them, but he has thought of all the ways he should think, and he cannot change the food.

The Kingdom of Sardinia has no foundation in the Lombardy region. Now, to maintain the stability of the city of Milan, we must rely on the nobility and capitalists in the city.

Including the distribution of food rations to the people, but also these ground snakes to do.These people are not good goods, they can live very moist under the rule of Austria, but honest people can not do it.

With Marshal Bardolio not knowing anything, the underground black market has opened. If anyone pays attention, you will find that the food sold here is the relief food from the city.

Corruption is a tradition inherited from the Austrian era. The local nobility is also a tool for the Austrian government to rule the local area, and naturally inherits this fine tradition.

Not to mention the capitalists, their morality is no morality, and no one can refuse to make a fortune, including some of the Sardinian military officers who participated.

When distributing food, just deduct a little bit, it is not a small number, how could they give up?

Should they make up for the losses caused in the war?

Now the amount of rations distributed has been cut again. Does n’t that just make them rich?

Marshal Bardolio may not really know it, or he may be confused.

In short, everyone should have distributed seven tiers of rations, and finally fewer than five tiers fell into the hands of the people.Even in the last five layers, the bread is full of mess.

If you are lucky, you may just add bran and mix a part of the wheat straw powder. If you are unlucky, you may directly add wood chips, leaves, pebbles and other materials to the brown bread.

You ca n’t do it, only you ca n’t think of it.Fortunately, the people at the bottom are used to it.Anyway, the black bread they usually eat is the same. You can use it as a brick when fighting, and you can do two things with one stone.

People with economic ability have become customers of the underground black market, and it cannot be said that this is a black market. People are just opening their doors to do business.

It's just that the price is a little bit higher, especially the food price, which has soared more than a dozen times before the war, and even part of the petty bourgeoisie can't stand it.

The poor, of course, only need one way, bear it, anyway, Marshal Bardolio assured them, just for a few days.

Everyone is a patriot. For the sake of the country and the nation, it is still possible to persevere for a few days.

Paris France

At this time, the interim bourgeois government was busy fighting internally.

On March 17, the Blanquists organized 150,000 people and took to the streets to demonstrate. The contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie was ignited in Paris.

When the Kingdom of Sardinia decided to send troops to attack Austria, the interim government still supported it. Of course, this kind of support was limited to words. They did not have the ability to give substantial support.

Franz still miscalculated the situation in France, and now the situation in France is not good.The interim government, which represents the interests of the bourgeoisie, has issued a series of policies favoring the capitalists, which naturally damages the interests of ordinary people.

For example: On March 9th, the interim government issued a decree to reduce the cash payment of savings banks. Any withdrawal of more than 100 francs will be paid to depreciated national securities.
