Carlo Albert granted the Statute on 8 February 1848. The pressure of the Austrian police, because of the riots that broke out in different parts of the Empire, it loosens temporarily. The uprising broke out in Milan, which leads to the "5 days" (from 18 to 23 March 1848). While unsure between the different souls of the revolt, invoking the intervention of Piedmont against Austria. It's March 26, when Carlo Alberto, with two Corps (CdA), crosses the Ticino. Milan were killed about 1,000 people to hunt Radetzky's men to the Quadrilateral (fortresses of Peschiera del Garda, Verona, Mantua and Legnago). The bersaglieri in that moment are only 4, one of which is stationed in Sardinia which will receive as soon as possible. The 1st and the 4th company are involved in the 1st CdA Ettore Gerbaix De Sonnaz and 2nd 2nd Board of Drool. Are coming in the other two companies just made, surplus, with the Lombard volunteers commanded by Griffini, and half a company composed of students in Turin under the command of Lieutenant Cassinis. This serves as a simple bersagliere Constantine Nigra, future Ambassador to Paris. In Turin also young people, the Jews leave for the front, urged by Rabbi itself and with others, from other towns to form the 7TH bersaglieri Company Jews, who took part in the battle of Bicocca.

On the morning of 8 April, the 2nd company of Giuseppe Muscas, assaults Hotel Giraffe at ponte di GOITO which fired on our. Half the company, with Lieutenant Lions, strikes against one of the many detachments that the enemy (in this case the Tyrolean hunters of Schuetzen Wohlgemuth) had left on the Mincio at bridges to slow the advance of the Piedmont. Many battles have a 1st and a 2nd in the same places, so to GOITO; the second will have greater resonance at the end of may as the great pitched battle won by the Italians. The Austrians in this "first" trying to defend the town from the onslaught of riflemen and crews of the "Real" (the Marines). Unable to defend the bridge the blow after the village were occupied by Captain Muscas. It remains standing along the parapet and luckily the bersagliere Guastoni and Captain Xavier Griffini pass the River, followed by the entire Department. These will be the first gold medal of the Italian risorgimento. La prima fase della campagna di guerra | |
