2124 Lobster Praetorian Guard

The British crown prince was also shocked by Benjamin's problem, and Prince Edward, who was arranging his dress at St. Paul's Cathedral, turned white with horror when he heard that 400,000 people had rushed over.

"Four hundred thousand? How is that possible...... Is there enough manpower in the National Police Department?" "Don't look at Edward as a gentleman on the surface, who doesn't seem to care about eating, drinking, and having fun, but in fact, he is still a very capable politician in his bones, and history has commented on him very pertinently.

He just let his mother's aura go down, Queen Victoria is too powerful, and no matter how good the heir is in front of her, she can't shine a little light.

When Queen Victoria died, Prince Edward ascended the throne as King of England, that is, Edward VII, and under his leadership, Britain still maintained the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets, and he also laid the prototype of the Entente through superb diplomacy in advance.

Many of the treaties of military alliances were signed by him, and without his diplomatic efforts, Britain would have suffered greatly in the First World War.

Such a temporarily buried cow man, once he encountered serious things, he immediately lost his cynicism, and his eyes turned to analyze the crux of the problem.

He said to Colonel Vorster, who had brought the news, "Tell me the truth, did Benjamin meet with some resistance......?

Vorst snapped, the heels of his boots collided together, and he replied solemnly, "No, Your Excellency, I have not seen any infighting...... Although some officials had quarrels, they did not deliberately hinder them!"

"Oh, really...... Gladstone didn't say anything?"

"Your Excellency, I only know that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has mobilized thousands of Liberal rank-and-file members and has taken to the streets to help the military and police to help maintain law and order...... But the number of people is too much, and those thousands of people are a drop in the bucket!"

"The situation is urgent, and the army outside London will still be able to move up for some time, so the Prime Minister asked me to ask the Prince for help, and now I can only mobilize the cavalry in Hyde Park, this is the nearest reinforcement!"

Hearing that Gladstone was not restrained, Edward's expression relaxed a little, "Hmm...... Gladstone really didn't make a small move? Why am I so hard to believe it?"

Vorst smiled bitterly and whispered, "This...... This one...... There are still some ironic words, but in terms of right and wrong, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will not be messed up, after all, today is a special day......"

"Okay, as long as I don't have a black hand, I don't care about quarrels...... I only have the power to use less than two battalions of troops, and I don't have the power to do more, so you take my strip and go to Hyde Park and let them send seven hundred cavalry!"

Hyde Park is the largest green park in the city and is the equivalent of the lungs of London. The 360-acre park was first the property of the Church, then to the Crown, and was not opened to the public until the Victorian era.

The Hyde Barracks here is the closest barracks to Buckingham Palace, where the Praetorian Guards are stationed.

The crown prince is right, the Praetorian Guard belongs to the army directly managed by the royal family, and it is not easy to mobilize these soldiers to find the Minister of War, and the members of the royal family have to come forward.

More than 2,000 Janissaries want to move all of them, which only the queen can order, and the crown prince has two battalions of troops at the head, and 800 people are over.

After receiving Prince Edward's order to transfer troops, the cavalry stationed in the Hyde barracks quickly dispatched, and these cavalrymen wearing bearskin hats and large red army uniforms rushed out of the barracks in exchange for the cheers of the people on the street.

"Look, it's our Praetorian Guard!"

"What a mighty hat, I want to be a Praetorian Guard when I grow up...... Bearskin hat!"

"This group of British lobster soldiers is really loved by the people......"

The Praetorian Guards, whose chins were raised to the sky, exuded pride in every pore of their bodies, and this was the era when the British Empire was in full swing, and the glory of Britain was inseparable from the conquest of the army, and the Praetorian Guard was the sword that guarded the royal family.

All the soldiers did not speak, but separated the crowd with tall Arabian horses, and the policemen who followed them ran and shouted "Walk on the left, everyone walk on the left......

"Diversion, diversion...... If you are on the left, please take Grosvenor Street...... Thanks, please keep up!"

"Give way, give way to the lady who is suffering from heat stroke......"

The cavalry was more useful than the infantry at such moments, and the tall horses lined up as moving walls, and soon the chaos condensed into a big lump of blockages, and the crowd was gradually broken away.

Diversion, diversion, diversion, and order, and the streets were quickly restored, and the London police, who were busy with their legs about to break, breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, on the bustling street, at the top of the bell tower of Westminster Abbey, several well-dressed men were looking through binoculars at the city of London at their feet.

"Oh, the chaos at Hyde Park is beginning to subside! It seems that the British still have a backhand......" It was Pierre, who had returned to Europe ahead of schedule, and it was Leo who had the golden pen by his side.

In fact, Pierre and Leo basically set off from Asia at the same time to return home, but for safety reasons, in order to avoid the pursuit of French intelligence, the two did not take the same route.

Pierre traveled north via the Suez Canal, while Leo headed south to the Cape of Good Hope to circumnavigate all of Africa.

Pierre attracted the attention of the French intelligence services, while Leo arrived in Europe unharmed, first to Prussia and then to London.

At this moment, the two of them are shouldering the secret mission conveyed by Xiao Letian, and with the support of Gladstone and the royal family, they have climbed to the commanding heights of the church, from where they will start a war without gunpowder, and the target is the hearts of the 400,000 people of the whole of London.

Leo put down the binoculars and sneered, "There are not many Janissaries dispatched, it seems that it is an order from Prince Edward...... Even if the Praetorian Guards have the ability, but the number of them is too small, they can't control the chaos in the whole city!"

"Look, there's chaos over there at Thames again......"

Pierre's excited palms were sweating: "That's right, this chaos started because of the Führer, then the only one who can calm it down is the Führer himself! The London Metropolitan Police is not good, and neither can the British army......

"The chaos of 400,000 people has exceeded the limits of the organizational capacity of the government in this era, you wait, tomorrow the newspapers of all Europe will definitely be telling jokes......"

"To make a move?" Pierre suddenly asked in Chinese.

Leo took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, "Wait a little longer, I hope they mess up a little more......"

"Do you have to wait? If those troops outside the city really come up to maintain order, and then we take action again, this visual impact will be weak!"

"We can't let those armies take our credit!"

Leo nodded, "I understand the reason, but depending on the time, the army outside the city wants to pull in, and twenty minutes is not enough, if we let them mess up for another ten minutes, we will throw out our killer weapon before the army arrives!"

"Führer! The wind from the east has already blown, so let's see! We will surely blow the hearts of these 400,000 people!"
