Marin finally sent 5,000 reinforcements to England, originally, he didn't want to send reinforcements, but Edward's idea made him change his mind.

It turned out that Edward thought that if the main force was sent out this time, then London might not be safe. Why? Because Edward's throne was regained by bloody and violent means. The original Henry VII actually did a good job and was very loved by the people. Therefore, Edward was able to defeat Henry VII and seize the throne in the first place, but he actually relied on the violence lent by Marin. For this reason, he killed many people, especially those who were die-hard nobles of Henry VII.

However, those big nobles who were killed at the beginning must have a deep family background, and there must have been many fish that slipped through the net. It's just that, because Marin left the Fourth and Fifth Legions in England, those people didn't dare to move. But what if the city of London is empty? Edward believed that if London was empty, the remnants of the slain nobles would definitely be tempted to jump out of the rebellion and seek revenge on themselves.

In fact, Edward wanted the hidden enemies to come out. In this way, he will be able to catch them all. In this way, he will not worry about it in the future.

Therefore, he planned to take advantage of this opportunity to deliberately create the illusion of "the emptiness of the city of London", and induce the remnants of the enemy to jump out, so that they could be caught in one go, so that they would not tremble in the future.

As for how to create the illusion of "the emptiness of the city of London"? Naturally, all of Sivarg's Fifth Legion and the 10,000 Guards Legion recruited by Edward later were sent out to fight Scotland......

Of course, it was not really to send out all the Fifth Army and the Guards Legion. Edward's plan was to secretly leave the elite of the 5,000 Fifth Legion in ambush in the city of London, wait for the remnants of the opposition to emerge, and then wipe them out.

And how to leave the 5000 elite of the Fifth Legion? Of course, it was the secret replacement of 5000 soldiers of the Fifth Legion. In this way, when the army was opened, it seemed that all the 10,000 soldiers of the Fifth Army were gone, and in fact half of the elite was left, waiting for the rebels to emerge......

Originally, Edward planned to use 5,000 people to pretend to be the soldiers of the Fifth Legion and replace the 5,000 elites. However, Edward suddenly thought of the great nobles he had killed, and there were still many remnants of them. Perhaps, there is a remnant of their sins among those people. Or, those who are associated with the remnant. If the news leaks, those remnants will not dare to jump out.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Edward still felt that it would be better to let Marin send someone. Therefore, he sent another secret envoy to ask Marin to send troops to help.

However, Marin is now busy sending troops to Italy, how can he have extra troops and horses for Edward? Later, Edward's secret envoy became anxious and casually said, "The militia is also fine...... Then, Marin thought of a way......

Yes, Marin intends to send 5,000 militiamen to replace the 5,000 men of the Fifth Army. Coincidentally, Marin had trained about 20,000 militiamen in order to prevent being beaten by the princes. Originally, these militias were intended to be used to assist in defending the city, and they were not intended to be used as the main combat force. However, the level of training of these militias is not low. At least, no worse than the soldiers of Edward's 10,000 Guards Legion. After all, those who served as instructors for the militia were veterans of a hundred battles under Marin.

Of course, those militias had not seen blood, and they were not elite, not as elite as Sivarg's Fifth Legion. However, their task was to replace the veterans of Sivarg's Fifth Army, not to fight, so they were not so demanding.

According to the results of the negotiation between Edward's envoy and Marin, these 5,000 militiamen would enter London from the Thames on the merchant ships of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce. King Edward would grant the ship a special exemption from inspection to avoid problems with the English navy at the mouth of the Thames. You know, in those English navies, there may be remnants of the Tudor dynasty. Therefore, no one else can know that there are soldiers and horses entering London.

Then, the merchant ship carrying 5,000 militiamen would dock at the Fifth Army barracks west of London in the middle of the night, and enter the barracks at night to complete the replacement of personnel.

Of course, the Fifth Army barracks west of the city were large enough and close to the River Thames. Even if these 5000 militiamen go in, they will be able to live. As for supplies, the Beihai Chamber of Commerce can quietly send more supplies through the dock. In this way, outsiders can't see the problem.

When it is time to send troops, the 5,000 militia will replace the 5,000 veterans of the Fifth Army to go on the Northern Expedition. And the 5,000 veterans of the Fifth Army continued to hide in the barracks. At the same time, the barracks will be enclosed, with only a small number of guards to keep an eye on them, and outsiders will not be allowed to peep into the barracks.

After that, the British government no longer openly provided food and grass supplies to this military camp. However, the ships of the Beihai Chamber of Commerce would provide food and grass from the dock in the middle of the night to the 5,000 soldiers hiding in the barracks. Of course, the food was processed, and no fires were allowed in the barracks, so that no abnormalities could be seen from the outside. In this way, the 5,000 elite soldiers of the Fifth Army can quietly hide in the barracks and no outsiders will know.

As for the city of London, after all the Guards set off on the Northern Expedition, Edward would specially select 5,000 untrained recruits to be stationed in the city of London.

What kind of combat power can the recruit eggs have? And they still haven't trained much, and they are still scattered in the city of London...... Isn't all this a chance to give those Tudor remnants a chance to do it?

That's right, Edward was going to give the Tudor remnants a chance to rebel. In the Tower of London, he would have left only 500 reliable Janissaries to garrison the palace. Then, the rest of the city of London was full of recruit eggs.

In such a situation, it is estimated that the remnants of the Tudor dynasty will definitely be tempted. After all, the most people who can fight in London are Edward's 500 Praetorian Guards. If the remnants of the Tudor dynasty were united, they would still have no problem dealing with the 500 Praetorian Guards in the Tower of London.

As for the 5,000 recruit eggs, who cares about them? Even, Edward intends to deliberately let others recommend them to control these 5,000 recruits. Perhaps, there will be remnants of the Tudor dynasty who will take the opportunity to sneak in and control some of the military power. In this way, the other party's confidence is estimated to be greater.

And, in order to give the rebels enough confidence, Edward planned to select the most unbearable 5,000 recruits to garrison London. I'm not afraid of your frustration, I'm afraid that you won't be frustrated. How can you attract the remnants of the Tudor dynasty to do it?

In addition, Edward would also declare a wartime curfew that forbade anyone to go out at night. In this way, it can also avoid the eyes of the remnants of the Tudor dynasty from spotting someone delivering supplies to the barracks along the Thames in the middle of the night.

During the day, the city of London is open to visitors...... In fact, it was to give the remnants of the Tudor dynasty the opportunity to infiltrate the city of London......

As for the 5,000 elites of the Fifth Army hidden in the camp west of the city, how to enter the city to quell the rebellion? This is very simple, let the Beihai Chamber of Commerce prepare more merchant ships on the Thames.

Once a rebellion broke out in the city of London, the ships of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce went to the dock of the camp in the west of the city, loaded 5,000 elite veterans of the Fifth Legion on ships, and then went down the river to the royal dock of the Tower of London Palace to land, and then, from the southwest gate of the dock of the Tower of London Palace, entered the palace, and then passed through the palace and entered the city of London to quell the rebellion......

Note: The Tower of London Palace is located on the banks of the River Thames, and the palace walls are the city walls. After passing through the palace gate, you can also enter the city of London.

5,000 elite veterans of a hundred battles are enough to quell the rebellion of the remnants of the Tudor dynasty. After all, the elite of the Tudor dynasty had long been wiped out in the north in the previous war. How can the rest beat 5,000 elite veterans of a hundred battles?

Only when the remnants of the Tudor dynasty were wiped out could Edward truly sleep peacefully......

Marin, on the other hand, was also very supportive of Edward's initiative. After all, he is going to take over England in the future. Edward was helping him pave the way by cleaning up the remnants of the Tudor dynasty......
