"1859
This is a very important year for european history and modern warfare as a whole. During the Franco-Austrian extremely brief war that saw emperor Napoleon III march against Franz Joseph's forces, the first basis for a whole new kind of firing doctrine was born. Many were the factors that made the war go how it did; France had agreed to a secret pact with Piedmont, one that would give her, if successful, the former territory of Savoy while Piedmont would start the process of annexation of Northern Italy to form the Kingdom of Italy later in the years to come. Piedmont-Savoy wouldnt be able to beat the massive numbers of the Austrian Empire by itself, France therefore could affirm its supremacy over central Europe once again. But the external forces of Britain and Prussia were watching. Napoleon III was pressed with time constraints, he had to act quickly and gain a decisive victory or it's role would be severely compromised. During the campaign, many mistakes would pile up between the belligerents; Piedmont didnt possess the numbers and the former quality of the Napoleonic times, France had to press on with melee tactics due to the aforementioned time constraints and an aggressive politic centered around the use of the bayonet, while logistic problems and lack of proper scouting from both sides led to embarassing and deadly clashes. The Austrians were no less unprepared to face the French as their italian counterpart was in their own respects; they advanced slowly, made use of old, inaccurate artillery pieces dating back to the Napoleonic Wars, and were not trained to aim. But their weapons were much more accurate than those used bi the French and italians, so the casualties for both sides would be massive; seeing as the carnage was much more brutal than the decades past, Napoleon III encouraged the all out assault with the bayonet even more. In short, it was a bloody mess, hastily brought to a halt when France was victorious, much to the disappointment of the Italian government."
