The senior leaders of the independent organization of Venice and Hungary gathered together to make the final preparations for the uprising. No, to be precise, to be precise, to make the final preparations for the run.

If you do a full set of dramas, you can never escape the word "fame and fortune" in life.

"Lee" Stephen and others have already made almost the best deal, which is enough to make them spend the second half of their lives comfortably. The most important thing now is to maintain their reputation.

Others can be traitors, but they are the senior executives of independent organizations that cannot be able to do it, or they cannot make people know that they have become traitors.

Otherwise, how could the Americans who contributed money and effort let them go? Now their family business is in the United States, and missionaries can run away and churches cannot run away.

Stephen said, "The ship has been arranged. Once the uprising fails, we will go to Albania immediately, then enter Greece by land, and then take the Ottoman Empire from the Persian Gulf to Asia, and transfer to Japan to take a boat to San Francisco."

Somla asked in confusion: "Mr. Stephen, why do you have to go around such a big circle? The Austrians have promised that they will only pursue symbolically, and that we can go directly to the United States by boat."

Stephen explained: "Yes, the Austrians promised to let us go, but what if something happens?

Let us leave in a highly confidential state, and the Mediterranean area is full of Austrian navy activities. What if we are not lucky and are caught?

In order to reduce the risk, we had to take a detour. It is the best choice to take an unnoticed fishing boat from Venice into the Balkans and leave from areas that are not covered by Austrian forces."

In order to make the performance more realistic, Stephen also fought hard. I can't be in trouble. These bosses have nothing to do with them, and they only have to show that they are running away in a hurry.

Paul echoed: "Mr. Stephen said it well, and you must be cautious at this time. Returning to the United States as soon as possible is not necessarily a good thing. Now the Civil War is coming to an end.

It would be fine if the federal government won, but if they lost the war, it would require intervention from various countries to maintain power.

In that case, in order to seek help from various countries, the Lincoln government would probably hand over all of us revolutionary organizations.

For safety reasons, it is best to wait until things are over before returning to the United States.”

Everyone's faces changed drastically. If the Americans really surrender to European countries and hand over all the members of the revolutionary organization in the country, their family business in the United States would be gone.

Seeing everyone's concerns, Stephen comforted: "Don't worry, as long as we are still on the wanted order, no one dares to touch everyone's property."

No one dares to rob the money of the outlaws. This means having a life to take it, but spending it without life.

Otko, a rising star in the Hungarian Independent Organization. He graduated from the American West Point Military Academy, participated in the Civil War, and served as battalion commander.

On the battlefield, he became famous for his courage to fight and kill. The bosses of the Hungarian Independent Organization were all morally noble people who did not admire Rongli. The important task of directing this Venetian uprising fell on him.

Looking at the thousands of soldiers under his command, Otko was full of energy. The only pity was that he lacked weapons, according to Mr. Stephen, it was for the sake of safety.

After all, it was on the Austrian territory. If thousands of armed personnel appeared, the local garrison would have come to kill him long ago.

Otko thinks it makes sense. Austria's system is very strict. Although there is no complete ban on guns and there are a large number of guns among the people, most of them are hunting guns.

For serious rifles, you still need to file a gun license with the police station.

Not everyone can get a license, at least none of them meet the requirements.

It is very easy to buy guns in Austria. There are no less than ten gun shops in Venice, and all cannons have to be sold. As a colonial empire, how can overseas colonial teams be mixed without weapons and equipment?

However, it is easy to buy weapons, but it is difficult to deal with ammunition.

If it is used for overseas colonial purposes, it doesn’t matter how much you need; if it is used locally, you can only apply for bullets at the local police station with a gun permit.

The government cracks down on all privately made weapons and ammunition smuggling arms. If the arms are traded in the underground black market, the police have the right to kill all participants.

As time goes by, everyone gets used to it. If you want to play with weapons, you can go directly to the hunting ground or club. As long as you have money, you can play with cannons.

There is no need to go to the black market with your head on it. If you are killed as an arms dealer, there is no place to make any reason.

Without a market, there is no buying or selling.

It is absolutely impossible to buy weapons and ammunition for thousands of people. So Otko, the commander-in-chief of the rebel army, had only ten guns, including eight shotguns and two old-fashioned revolvers.

This was sponsored by local Italians who tend to be revolutionary. If you want more, you can't help but wait until the uprising breaks out and you can seize it from the enemy.

On February 1, 1865, in the General Command of the Uprising Army, several energetic teenagers were formulating combat plans.

Don’t look down on them as young as you think they are. These people are among the few military talents in the Hungarian independent organization, most of whom have participated in the Civil War.

If the situation was not critical, the Federal Army would not release people. Everyone knows how shortage of officers the Americans are now.

Otko opened a sketch and said, "This is the information provided by Mr. Amko. Although Austria allows guns, it has very strict controls on ammunition.

All weapons and equipment stores have no ammunition. Only the police station of the Hunting Ground Gun Club and the local garrison have enough ammunition.

The garrison didn't have to think about it. Just the guns in our hands were probably unable to touch their door and they were suppressed.

The hunting ground is far away from the city, so we can't rush to dozens of miles away to seize weapons and then rush back to launch an uprising.

The ammunition reserves in the gun club should not be large. Their ammunition also comes from the police station. It will basically be replenished every two or three days, which cannot meet our needs.

If the uprising is successful, we must first take down the police station and seize enough ammunition."

Speaking of this, Otko was very depressed. The ammunition depot in Venice was actually next to the naval base, and there was no possibility of taking it off.

Or even if it is seized, it is useless. Within the coverage of naval artillery, it will be finished before they can remove the ammunition.

"Venice is not suitable for an uprising. You have to take a boat when you go out. These small boats have no way to exert our manpower advantages.

With these guns in our hands, it is almost impossible to seize the police station. Even the Chengbei Branch, which has the smallest number of people, is not something we can take away.

Moreover, these Italian mercenaries are not reliable. If something happens, they are likely to flee in all directions."

The young man who raised his objections was named Tuft. He also participated in the Civil War and had certain military knowledge.

But he was too upright and had been marginalized in the revolutionary organization. If this uprising had not been too important and he had military capabilities, he would not have a place in the command center.

Otko patiently explained: "Military point of view, Venice is indeed not suitable for initiating an uprising. Even if it occupied this place, this water city was still under the threat of the Austrian Navy.

But in politics we must do this, the military must serve politics. To achieve shocking results, the organization decided to launch an uprising in Milan and Venice at the same time.

Once the revolution is successful in these two cities, Lombardy and Venetian regions will shake, and the entire Italian region of Austria will be independent.

Taking advantage of the independence of the Italian region, it attracted the attention of the Vienna government and provided cover for organizing an uprising in the Hungarian region.

The Austrians could not have bombarded Venice at the first time of the uprising. This is our opportunity. As long as we take advantage of this time difference and integrate a revolutionary army, we can burn the war to the inland areas.

The more popular it is in Italy, the higher the success rate of our uprising in Hungary. So from the beginning, there was no strategic goal for this uprising.

We just need to create greater momentum to disrupt the Venetian region and to entangle more people into the rebel army. Victory and defeat are not important. Even if the uprising fails, the deaths are all Italians."

Everyone is very satisfied with this explanation. They have grown up in the United States since childhood, so everyone is naturally affected, believing that politics is higher than military.

Little do they know that before seizing power, this order was just reversed. Only when military victory is achieved can there be room for political performance.

The last sentence of the uprising failed, and the Italians died, which directly left Tuft with nothing to say.

Stephen did not order them to fight to the end, and told them from the beginning that they were doing things in the Italian region just to make a name for the sake of the east and the west, and to provide cover for the Hungarian uprising.

As long as the momentum is created, it attracts the attention of the enemy, and the final result of the uprising is within the scope of the organization's consideration.

Almost shady, he told them that if the uprising fails, he will run away, and that this Italian mercenary can be used as a abandoned son.

Otherwise, Otko would not have been so relaxed. Isn’t it that if I expect a group of mobs to overthrow Austria’s local rule?
