Holy Roman Empire

If you do n’t die, you wo n’t die. Maherd clearly ignores the fact that the Tuscan army ’s combat power is not good, and the Austrian army suppressed it at the beginning of the battle.

"Offend me!"

"Asshole, hurry up and attack me!"

...

Maher cursed angrily, the young officers showed great courage, but the soldiers showed very Italian.

The slogans shouted, the enemies' shadows hadn't been seen, and they lay on the ground one by one and pretended to be dead, which had to make people angry.

There is no doubt that the soldiers at the bottom did not want to fight against Austria. Before the outbreak of the Anti-French War, Tuscany was still a member of the Holy Roman Empire, and their ancestors also loyal to the Habsburg family.

Even now, Austria still has a strong influence in Tuscany. These influences cannot be eliminated in a short time. The soldiers ’feelings about Austria are very complicated.

This is a tragic problem. The anti-Olympic movement in Italy was initiated by the bourgeoisie for their own benefit.

Even if the people were fooled, they didn't have the pain of cutting their skin. It was fine to usually shout slogans and let them sell their lives.

The only people who really want to defeat Austria and unify Italy are capitalists, intellectuals and nationalists.

It ’s not good to say that it has been split for thousands of years, and everyone is used to this kind of life.

Otherwise, in 1848 in history, Austria could not easily defeat the Italian coalition forces to rule Venice and Lombardy again.

"General, we have been attacked by the main force of the Austrian army. Let's ask allies for help!" A young officer suggested

Not everyone's brains are sober, even if their brains were flooded for a while, after the battle just now, everyone knows to calm down.

Tuscany's expeditionary army is not qualified from top to bottom. The high-level commanders will only talk on the paper. The grassroots officers are all middle school teenagers. It is okay to be a death squad. Command the troops or forget!

"Well, immediately send someone to Marshal Bardolio for help, and order the troops to prepare for a strategic transfer!" Maherd quickly made a decision

Big husband can bend and stretch, can't you afford it or can't you hide?This is also the tradition of Italy. If you can't fight, you can run. If you can't, you can surrender.

I don't know if it started from hundreds of years ago, or a thousand or hundreds of years ago, the fighting power of the Italians became unreliable.

In continental Europe, where mercenaries are prevalent, Italian mercenaries are considered to have the worst combat effectiveness, and are inversely proportional to neighboring Switzerland.

...

While the Tuscan army was hit, General Messer, who was in charge of attacking Trento on the other side, was also in trouble.

Of course, they are the active attacking side, and their strength is several times that of the defending army, so there is no need to avoid the danger of annihilation, but it is impossible to just want to conquer Trento.

"General, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, the second division has too many casualties, and Major General Will asks for support!" The attendant said seriously

With a bang, Lieutenant General Messer's cup in his hand had flown out.

"Rice bucket, the battle has just begun, they have suffered heavy losses, have they met the main force of the Austrians?"

No one answered him on this question, but what is certain is that the opposite cannot be the main force of the Austrian army, otherwise the offensive and defensive trend will be reversed.

"General Messer, it is better to postpone the attack first, and wait for the heavy artillery to arrive, we will attack again!" Major General Manstu suggested

In the end, still reluctant to consume the valuable troops in his hands, Messer said helplessly: "Well, slow down the offensive, and wait for the heavy artillery to arrive tomorrow, then launch a full-scale attack!"

...

No reinforcements were sought, but with the order to suspend the attack, Major General Will was relieved and lost nearly a regiment of troops in the morning. Such a casualty could not withstand the second division.

Looking at the soldiers who were constantly falling on the charge road, Major General Will was very distressed and ordered helplessly: "Order the troops to retreat!"

The retreating horn sounded, and a weird scene on the battlefield happened. One by one, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Sardinia who fell on the charge road scammed.

General Will, who was still heartbroken, was so angry that if he didn't know what happened, he wouldn't deserve to be a teacher.

"Asshole, these damn gangs, I will send them to the military court!" Major General growled

Major General Will was not angry, thinking about the heavy loss report that had just been submitted to the headquarters, and then looking at the soldiers who were swindling and swindling the corpse, the face was too fast.

Counting the casualties, Major General Will's heart was bleeding, not because the loss was too great, but on the contrary, the loss was too small.

Attacked for one morning, killed more than 20, and injured more than 70. Can this also be called a heavy loss?He is a division of troops, not a battalion!

There were not many casualties among soldiers, but the loss of weapons and equipment was not small.

When they ran back, the Austrian army did not forget to put a gun in the back. For the sake of safety, many soldiers returned empty-handed.

According to preliminary statistics, in the morning, the second division lost more than 1,300 rifles. If it was not for lawlessness, Major General Will would like to give this group of jerks to a sudden.

The result?Well, probably consumed the enemy's weapons and ammunition.Did not enter the enemy's position within 100 meters, there is a hairy victory?

"General, these soldiers are mostly recruited from the Lombard area, are a group of cowards, and this will certainly not be the case for our veterans in the afternoon!" An officer reminded

Major General Will nodded helplessly. He could only expect other soldiers to be brave. If everyone studied the cowards in the morning, there would be no need to fight this battle.

...

Not only were they depressed, the Austrian defenders on the opposite side were even more depressed.

Lieutenant Colonel Griggie, who was in charge of defending the first line of defense, was very happy to see the enemies falling down one after another. He thought that his soldiers had become sharp marksmen.

Unexpectedly, it was only at noon, and the result changed. The enemy who died in battle scammed again, making him angry.

It's just a little bit worse. The documents for merits and rewards are all prepared. Fortunately, they haven't been submitted. Otherwise, the charges of lying for the merits of war are enough for him to suffer.

Lieutenant Colonel Griggy really could n’t understand the enemy ’s practices, and could only secretly guess: “Does the enemy want to consume our ammunition? But this commander is too funny, Trento is not short of weapons and ammunition!”

"Commander, does the enemy have any conspiracy? Could it be that they wanted to lure us out, and then they took the opportunity to kill us and seize our position?" A young officer opened his mind
