Chapter 79 Menotti (Please subscribe!)

Carlo was stunned. He didn't expect that he had met Garibaldi before.

But it doesn't matter. Judging from Garibaldi's current words and attitude, at least he still has a good impression of himself.

As long as he has a good impression, it will also be convenient for Carlo to recruit some talents in Garibaldi.

"Jotti, why didn't you tell me in advance that His Majesty Carlo was coming? Your Majesty, please forgive me for not being prepared at all for your arrival and not going to greet you in person." Garibaldi first asked his son Jotti, Then he looked at Carlo with an apologetic look.

"I asked Giotti to keep it secret, Mr. Garibaldi. You are a hero of the unification of Italy, and all Italians should be grateful for your contribution to Italy." Carlo said with a smile, but his words were indeed sincere.

In fact, no matter which country it is, people who can be selfless and wholeheartedly serve the country are worthy of everyone's admiration.

If Garibaldi had even the slightest bit of selfishness, it would be a question whether the current Kingdom of Italy could exist. If Garibaldi and Mazzini, who supports the republic, unite, I am afraid that the unified Italy will become a democratic republic.

"Your Majesty, is there something important that comes to see me so suddenly?" Garibaldi asked curiously.

"It's not that important." Carlo smiled and explained the purpose of his visit: "The most important thing is to take advantage of the time of visiting Italy to let Jodi go home.

There is also an invitation to go to Spain to serve as director of the Royal Military Academy of Zaragoza. If you will. "

Garibaldi was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, my physical condition makes me weak.

Life in Caprera is more suitable for me. Besides, an old man on crutches shouldn't be suitable to be the dean of a military academy, right? I'm afraid you are disappointed. "

Carlo certainly didn't expect Garibaldi to come out. Seeing that Garibaldi rejected his invitation, Carlo then said: "

So do you have any suitable candidates to recommend to me? Not only is the military academy in need of a large number of professors, but my Guards is also short of some commanders. "

Looking at Carlo who immediately revealed his true purpose, Garibaldi still didn't know that Carlo's target was not him at all.

"Your Majesty, you must have found the wrong person in this regard. You should go to the professor at the Royal Military Academy in Turin. I don't have any military talents here." Garibaldi said with a wry smile.

It wasn't that Garibaldi was unwilling to help Carlo, it was just that none of the old guys he knew were suitable for going to Spain.

Some old guys have strong republican ideas. Although their abilities may be sufficient, they are a hidden danger to Carlo as the King of Spain. It is naturally impossible for Garibaldi to harm Carlo.

"How about Menotti? Mr. Garibaldi." Carlo said with a smile, he said the candidate he had long been optimistic about: "I have a position here that is very suitable for Menotti, and he can definitely use his talents. ”

"Haha, it turns out that His Majesty has taken a fancy to Menotti!" Garibaldi suddenly realized, and after talking for a long time, it turned out that Carlo's target was actually his eldest son.

But it's not surprising when you think about it. After all, the second son Jotti has been Carlo's subordinate for several years. It is normal for Carlo to have a certain understanding of Menotti.

"As long as Menotti is willing, of course I have no objection." Garibaldi said with a smile.

He is still very open-minded and will not confine his son to himself.

In fact, Garibaldi still knew the abilities of his two sons. Although his military ability is not that outstanding, it is definitely above the qualification level.

What's more, both of them are still young. If they are trained a little, they might be able to reach the level of general. This is why Garibaldi agreed to Jotti to follow Carlo.

The reason why he refused Emanuele II's reward before was entirely because such a reward lacked sincerity and was more of a surveillance idea.

If it were an invitation from Emanuele II, Garibaldi would most likely refuse. But if it was Carlo's invitation, Garibaldi felt it was still worth a try.

After all, Jyoti's ability to serve as the leader of Carlo's Royal Guards has proven Carlo's trust in Jyoti.

This kind of trust from the monarch is valuable, and it will be more promising under such circumstances, without having to worry about intrigues between governments.

After hearing Carlo's invitation, Menotti did not hesitate at all and chose to nod in agreement.

Not only was Garibaldi not at all surprised by this, but he actually looked like he had expected it.

"Mr. Garibaldi, can I just take Menotti away?" Carlo said with a smile.

"Take them away. They shouldn't live in Caprera with me. This shouldn't be their fate." Garibaldi nodded, with a hint of reluctance and relief in his eyes: "

Jotti, Menotti, since you have chosen to serve His Majesty Carlo, you should abide by your duty and avoid contact with those republicans. "

Garibaldi himself suffered a great loss from contact with the Republicans. In his youth, Garibaldi met Mazzini and was exposed to republican ideas.

Although Garibaldi later had his own ideas, his contact with the republicans during this period had a profound impact on Garibaldi, making him a republican traitor in the eyes of the monarchy.

At this point, Garibaldi does not think that the republic is right and the monarchy is wrong, which is why he chose to support the Kingdom of Sardinia to unify Italy.

There is no right or wrong in a single system, and the monarchy is also desirable in some aspects.

However, the current republicans obviously cannot see this. They hate the monarchy so much that they are always thinking about overthrowing the monarchy and establishing a republic.

Is their approach really right? Garibaldi does not think so.

If Italy has not yet been unified, it would be fine to have other ideas about a unified Italy. But now Italy has been unified and has a relatively stable and peaceful development environment.

The current republicans have jumped out to make trouble for the Italian government. Aren’t they destroying the finally unified Italy?

It is precisely because of this that Garibaldi is a little disappointed with the republic, and it has affected Giotti and Menotti.

The reason why Garibaldi reminded his two sons to stay away from the republic in front of Carlo was to show Carlo an attitude, that is, although he had been exposed to the republic before, he now has nothing to do with it, and his sons will not get close to the republic.
