The Austrian ambassador to Sardinia, who had received an ultimatum from Prince Metternich, quickly set off for the Royal Palace of Turin, and before he could take a few steps towards the gate of the embassy, he suddenly stopped, then turned to look at the Austrian imperial official who was standing there, and asked him whether he wanted to stay at the embassy or return to Milan.

In the face of the sudden inquiry of the Austrian Imperial Ambassador, the Austrian Imperial Official should not have answered for a while.

After all, Prince Metternich only asked him to hand over the ultimatum to the Austrian ambassador in Turin, without telling him whether he wanted to return quickly.

However, in view of the advent of war, the Austrian imperial official was silent for only a few seconds, and then quickly replied to the ambassador that he would return to Milan as quickly as possible.

"Alright then! Have a nice trip!" The Austrian ambassador politely sent his blessings to the officer.

Subsequently, the Austrian Imperial Ambassador and the officers left the embassy together, but the two men were going to a very different place, one was going to the Royal Palace of Turin, while the other was to take the last train back to the border between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia.

……

The Austrian ambassador, who had departed from the embassy by horse-drawn carriage, finally arrived near the Royal Palace of Turin after about ten minutes of walking through the streets of Turin.

The soldiers guarding the gates of the Royal Palace of Turin had just stepped forward to stop them when they saw that they were approaching the Royal Palace of Turin, and the officers on the side pressed the soldiers' bodies with their hands to prevent the soldiers from coming forward to stop them.

In the soldier's bewildered eyes, the officer said, "This carriage is the Austrian embassy carriage, and there is no need to inspect them!"

"Ahh The soldier looked at the officer in surprise, and then the carriage flashed past the soldier, and the soldier was able to see the people sitting in the carriage.

That's right, none other than the Austrian ambassador!

The soldier was even more surprised, and he asked curiously, "How do you know?"

The officer smiled slightly, then stretched out his index and middle fingers to make a gesture of pinch the cigarette.

The soldier took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for the officer.

The officer took a puff and replied to the soldier with an intoxicated look on his face, "It's easy! As long as you can remember the style and type of carriage that each nobleman who went out of the palace often cared in, then you would be able to quickly determine who was in the carriage!"

"Sir, you've written them all!" The soldier asked, with a dumbfounded expression.

"Of course...... "Of course," the officer said, shaking his head in a long voice at the eager gaze of the soldier, "Of course not! It's impossible to remember so many carriages, I just remember some of them! (The officer gesits at his head as he says)

The carriage of the Austrian ambassador happened to be among them!

"I see!" The soldier muttered quietly, and it seemed to him that being able to memorize a part of the carriage would save him a lot of trouble.

"Boy, you still have to learn one more!" The officer patted the soldier on the shoulder and said earnestly, "There's nothing wrong with learning more!"

I think I had to learn two more sentences of German to climb out of the pile of dead people.

Otherwise, we would have been the guns of the Austrian army!" ….

"You just said the war of 1848?" The soldier asked the officer curiously.

"It's not that one, it's another!" The officer spat out a mouthful of phlegm, with a hint of complaint in his tone, "That war was really fought, more than 100,000 troops passed, and before they could fight a few times, they were played around by others!"

I don't want to fight them anymore!"

"If we don't fight them, won't we be able to unify Italy?" The soldier said reluctantly.

"United Italy!" The officer laughed when he heard the soldier's thoughts, "When did you come up with such extravagant ideas, how can we win against them with our own strength!"

"But we can't do nothing!" The soldier replied, slightly unconvinced, "General Garibaldi said that if we can work together, we will be able to defeat the Austrians!"

"Together?!" The officer couldn't help but sneer, "Garibaldi's defeated general can only deceive, you hot-blooded little fellow!

Didn't he be beaten like us in that war, and then he felt that he couldn't beat it, and ran to the Papal States to establish a Roman Republic that he didn't know about!

As a result, it has not been wiped out by the French army!"

The officer's contempt for Garibaldi caused the soldiers to be dissatisfied, and if it were not for the relationship between his superiors and subordinates, the soldiers would have given him two punches.

Of course, as for whether you can beat it, that's naturally a later story.

"Young man, you still think about how to save your life after the war comes!" The officer patted the soldier on the shoulder again and said earnestly, "I've seen too many people like you, but when they actually arrived on the battlefield, they all turned into soft-footed shrimp!"

What nation, ideals, future, these things are all farts on the battlefield, everything is to survive!"

"Sir, I don't think you're right!" The soldier plucked up courage and responded to the officer.

After hearing the soldier's rebuttal, the officer responded to him with a calm face, "It doesn't matter if what I said is right or not, all you have to do now is obey!"

The soldier stood up to the officer and replied, "Yes!"

Looking at the immature-looking soldier in front of him, the officer sighed and said to him, "Forget it, I'll tell you a few words of German!"

lest you be killed when you go into battle!"

"Sir, are we going to war?" The soldier asked the officer curiously.

"I don't know!" The officer touched his stubble chin and replied to the soldier, "But it never hurts to learn more!

In case you need it!"

……

On the other hand, when the Austrian ambassador was not allowed to reach about 50 meters from the royal palace of Turin, the carriage began to slow down and finally stopped completely at the gate of the royal palace of Turin.

Looking out the window at the entrance to the Royal Palace of Turin on the steps, the Austrian ambassador sitting in the carriage pushed open the door and stepped on the steps into the Royal Palace of Turin.

In the halls of the Royal Palace of Turin, the Austrian ambassador met the lieutenant of King Vidocq Yinmanuel II.

I saw the adjutant look at the Austrian Imperial Ambassador with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Mr. Ambassador, is there anything wrong with you?" ….

The Austrian ambassador replied to the adjutant with a serious expression, "I have here a letter from our Emperor Franz. His Majesty Joseph wrote to your King Victor. Letter from His Majesty King Yin Manuel II to be forwarded to Victor. His Majesty Manuel II!"

When the adjutant heard the words of the Austrian ambassador, he immediately said to the Austrian ambassador, "Mr. Ambassador, please follow me!"

The Austrian ambassador followed the adjutant to a living room where no one was around, and then said to the Austrian ambassador, "Mr. Ambassador, please wait patiently! Our King is chatting with the French ambassador and may have to wait a while before he can speak with you!"

The Austrian ambassador's expression paused, and after a few seconds, he resumed, "Nothing! I'm not in a hurry!"

"Then I won't bother you!" The adjutant bowed to the Austrian ambassador and left the room.

The Austrian ambassador was alone in the room waiting for Victor. With the arrival of Yin Manuel II, another half an hour passed, and Victor. Yin Manuel II came to the room of the Austrian ambassador.

"I'm sorry! I've kept you waiting!" Victor. This was stated by Yin Manuel II to the Austrian ambassador.

"Nothing!" The Austrian ambassador shook his head and handed over the ultimatum from Vienna to Victor. In the hands of Yin Manuel II, "Your Majesty, this is an ultimatum from the Austrian Empire, please check it!"

"What? Ultimatum?" Victor. After hearing the ultimatum, the hand holding the "letter" trembled slightly.

"Your Majesty, this is an ultimatum from the Austrian Empire to the Kingdom of Sardinia, and we hope that Sardinia will give us an answer as soon as possible.

not

In that case, we do not rule out the use of force to solve the problem!" The Austrian ambassador to Victor. Yin Manuel II said.

"Reply? What is the reply?" Victor. Yin Manuel II asked in an excited tone.

"It's all in there!" The Austrian ambassador pointed to the "letter" to Victor. Yin Manuel II replied.

Victor. Yin Manuel II opened the "letter", the first paragraph of which condemned the recent subversive actions of the Kingdom of Sardinia in the Duchy of Tuscany, the Duchy of Modena, the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venice, and some time ago in Naples!

The Austrian Empire hoped that the Kingdom of Sardinia would be able to clear its line with them as soon as possible.

The next paragraph is the conditions imposed by the Austrian Empire on the Kingdom of Sardinia.

the seizure of all liberal and nationalist newspapers in the country;

the immediate outhaul of the National Self-Defense Organizations, and the banning of other anti-Austrian Empire organizations;

dismissal of officials in the military or administrative ministries accused of propaganda against the Austrian Empire, the list of which was provided by the Austrian Empire;

Disarming the Kingdom of Sardinia during the investigation;

If the Kingdom of Sardinia was unwilling to fulfill any of these terms, the Austrian Empire would attack the Kingdom of Sardinia.

……

When Victor. After Yin Manuel II had seen all the conditions, a nameless fire burned from his chest.

If the French Foreign Ministry's request to the Kingdom of Sardinia to seize the country's nationalist newspapers is counted as 1, then the above five articles can be called 100.

As long as Victor. Yin Manuel II agreed to the conditions of the Austrian Empire, so that the entire Kingdom of Sardinia could immediately wash and sleep.

These conditions are simply to use the Kingdom of Sardinia as a footcloth...... No, there may not be such a thing as the Kingdom of Sardinia in the Austrian Empire!

"Your country's conditions!" Victor. Men Manuel II tried to speak to the Austrian ambassador in a calm, yet forceful tone, "I beg your pardon for not agreeing!"
