Rise of Empires: Spain
Chapter 7 Prussian-Austrian Conflict
Garibaldi finally accepted Carlo's invitation and became a partner of the Italian 24-hour Sun, publishing his own stories in the newspaper.
Although Garibaldi was still a little hesitant at first, all obstacles disappeared after Carlo obtained the permission of his father Vittorio Emanuele II.
The reason why Vittorio Emanuele II agreed to Garibaldi to publish his articles was also very simple. After all, the owner of the Sun was Carlo, and Garibaldi's articles would still be reviewed. It was impossible for any articles to be published.
As for whether Carlo would be deceived by Garibaldi and agree to Garibaldi to publish articles advocating the republic, Vittorio Emanuele II was not worried at all.
Loren was a talent he personally selected, and his loyalty to the royal family and support for the monarchy were trustworthy.
Carlo was of course very excited. At this time, the attitude of Italians towards Garibaldi was equivalent to the attitude of those brain-dead fans in later generations towards their favorite stars. The word "fanatic" was simply not enough to describe it.
Once Garibaldi's article is published in the Sun, 24 Hours Sun will immediately become one of the most famous newspapers in Italy and achieve extremely fast expansion.
Perhaps the task assigned by Carlo to Loren can be completed in less than two years, and Carlo can have more time to plan other things.
Time passed quickly, and three and a half months passed quickly.
Thanks to Garibaldi's huge reputation, although only two articles were published in three and a half months, 24 Hours Sun Italy still became one of the most famous newspapers in the entire Kingdom of Italy, and easily achieved a daily sales of 10,000 copies.
The current Sun has achieved profitability and is still expanding rapidly with the help of Garibaldi's fame.
Also because it is located in the developed industrial area in northern Italy, the expansion of the newspaper has no obstacles. It is expected that the daily sales will exceed 20,000 copies this year, becoming a truly large newspaper.
This era is different from later generations. Newspapers have become the most effective means for people in this era to understand the outside world.
Although only 10,000 newspapers were sold, there are definitely more than 10,000 people reading the newspapers. According to the scale of 3 to 5 people in each family, the number of people that the Italian Sun can influence is close to 50,000.
Relying on the word-of-mouth transmission of these 50,000 people, the news published in the newspaper can be transmitted to hundreds of thousands of Italian figures in a short period of time.
This is also the power that public opinion can show. At present, when people's spare time is not well developed, the power of public opinion that newspapers can show is huge.
The person responsible for delivering the manuscripts twice was Garibaldi's second son, Giotti. Carlo also cultivated a good relationship with Giotti through two meetings with him.
A tiger father has no dog son. This sentence is very reasonable to describe Garibaldi's two sons.
In Garibaldi's many military operations, the two sons played a relatively important role, just like Garibaldi's assistants.
And compared with the aging Garibaldi, his two sons are in their prime, which is the peak age of a person.
To be honest, Carlo is still envious of Garibaldi's two sons.
Although he was not an outstanding military talent compared to Garibaldi, his level was definitely above the standard, and he had been influenced by Garibaldi for a long time, so his character was not rigid.
It was a pity that Carlo was still too young, otherwise he would have tried to invite Giotti to be his palace guard.
As time came to June 1866, Carlo's originally calm heart finally became a little nervous.
The good news is that the Prussian-Austrian War is likely to be staged as in history, because there was already a border conflict between Prussia and Austria at the end of May.
This is indeed a war that cannot be avoided at all. Affected by the general trend of German unification, the two major powers in Germany, Prussia and Austria, are destined to win or lose.
Fortunately, Italy stands on the side of Prussia, the historical winner. And Italy can achieve a win by lying down, and easily recover the Venice area when the Austrians are on guard against Prussia.
But the bad news is that in this war, the Italian army showed an extremely poor side, which opened a good start for Italy in World War I and World War II.
If Prussia had not been so powerful at that time, the newly born Kingdom of Italy would have become a meteor that quickly passed by the Apennine Peninsula.
For Carlo now, how to influence his father, Vittorio Emanuele II, is the most difficult problem.
Because the Italian army that was quickly defeated was led by his father, Vittorio Emanuele II, and soon gave away his head.
In other words, the southern battlefield could not affect Prussia in the north at all, otherwise, perhaps the world situation would be different.
Carlo understood that with his ability and status, it was impossible to affect the development of the Austro-Prussian War.
In order to change Italy's poor performance in the Austro-Prussian War, it was necessary to invite the current Italian real god of war, Garibaldi, to command the Italian army.
But this is exactly the most troublesome problem. Under the current circumstances, Vittorio Emanuele II is basically unlikely to agree to let Garibaldi command the Italian army.
Carlo, who had no choice, could only save the country in a roundabout way and use another way to promote Garibaldi's early participation in the war.
As time came to June, the conflict between Prussia and Austria on the border became more intense. The two great powers in the north and south of Germany were destined to be unable to coexist peacefully for a long time. Whoever wins this conflict will be able to unify the entire German region and realize the strategy of dominating Central Europe.
The tense situation not only affected the entire German region, but also Prussia's ally Italy.
Vittorio Emanuele II has held two cabinet meetings on the tense situation in Germany and asked the Italian army to be ready at any time.
Under such a tense situation, Carlo also began his own attempt.
"My God, Carlo, do you understand what you are saying?"
In the small luxurious restaurant of the palace, Vittorio Emanuele II, who was originally eating breakfast comfortably, was surprised at this time, looking at his favorite son opposite, and asked in disbelief.
"Of course I understand, father." Carlo nodded, took a deep breath, and then said, "So I understand the importance of this matter."
"I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will consider the harm of letting you get close to Garibaldi." At this time, Vittorio Emanuele II was more like the King of Italy than an ordinary father. He looked at Carlo with deep and serious eyes and said word by word.
