Chapter 371: Chapter 58, The Uprising Fails

February 15, 1865, the "Rebel Army," unaware they had been betrayed, launched the planned armed uprising, igniting the flames of rebellion in both Milan and Venice simultaneously.

Under the leadership of the core members of the Hungarian Independence Organization, a group of bewildered Italian mercenaries became the Rebel army, attacking the Austrian Government.

In Venice, the Rebel Army attacking the police station encountered a fierce counterattack from the police. In this era, starting a rebellion required more than just numbers; it also required guns.

Regrettably, the few guns in the hands of the Hungarian Independence Organization were not enough. On the other hand, the police station was ready with more than a hundred armed officers.

In a panic, Taft said, "Oteco, something's wrong. The enemy is prepared; the surprise attack has failed. Retreat immediately."
