Together with him there are young enthusiastic idealists and his loyal officers, among which stands the Palermo colonel Vincenzo Giordano Orsini. Once in Sicily, precisely in Marsala, the Thousand clash with the Bourbon army, which exceeds them by far in number of men, reason why they can not break into Palermo. Garibaldi, however, is not willing to surrender so he comes up with a plan: Colonel Orsini together with a group of wounded soldiers will have to act as a diversion, convincing the Swiss commander of the royal army, Jean-Luc Von Mechel, that Garibaldi is retreating inside the island.
