London.

The streets that had been chaotic became a little frighteningly quiet. Bands of military police hurried past with rifles in hand, and only their footsteps could be heard. Pedestrians on the street became scarce, and even if they passed by, they hurried out and hurried home.

Everything has changed!

Who would have thought that the original vigorous workers' uprising would be suppressed at once by the sudden mobilization of more than 100,000 soldiers of the British army.

On the streets of Manchester, hundreds of murderous British soldiers armed with muskets defended almost every intersection, and tens of thousands of workers armed with muskets, wrenches, steel pipes, lampstands and even seat feet rushed towards the troops at the street corner, but they were greeted by a dense burst of gunfire.

The workers fought back, but more often than not, they were shot in the chest and fell in pools of blood.

Birmingham, Liverpool, Glasgow, and various industrial cities in Great Britain, this scene is happening one after another. And the bloodiest massacres were still on the streets of London, on Parliament Square.

Nearly 30,000 heavily armed infantry besieged tens of thousands of rioting workers in Parliament Square, demanding that they lay down their arms and accept arrest, but the workers refused, saying that they would "not live than die".

So, with the order of the army commander, the gunshots rang out, and the British soldiers lined up in a neat line opened fire on the workers in the square, and the square was full of cries, and the whole square was a bloody blur, turning into a hell on earth. Even after a few days, the strong smell of blood still permeated the surroundings of the square, which was disgusting.

Old Mark, who was like a wandering spirit, stayed in his little room, and still can't forget the hellish scene of that day, and he can't help but hide his face and cry bitterly.

Thousands of soldiers surrounded the square and shot them, and the workers, armed with iron rods and a small number of guns, had only come to the parliament square to gather. More than a thousand people were shot on the spot and died tragically, more than 2,000 were injured, and the rest of the more than 1,000 were taken to prison.

Old Mark had not yet entered the square because he was a step late, and he had only time to sneak a glimpse of this scene on the street corner.

"Old Mark, great, you're still here, it's okay." A person pushed the door in and was a little surprised to see old Mark.

"Mekars!" The old Mark, who had no master of the six gods, immediately had a backbone like meeting a relative, and asked, "The brothers either died tragically or were arrested." Our insurrection has failed! ”

"Alas!" McCas sighed: "It's us who are too underestimated. Without weapons, blood alone will not succeed in the uprising! We are ill-prepared and lack foreign aid. It is hateful that the government has secretly mobilized more than 100,000 troops specifically to suppress our insurrection, and has also premeditated the shooting. The reactionary enemy is too strong, too brutal...... The way we resisted was in the wrong direction from the beginning....."

Mekars became a little incoherent. Old Mark couldn't help asking, "What about Mr. McCas, .....?"

"Don't panic, listen to my arrangement!" "The most important thing right now is to protect yourself!" Old Mark, Haney is no longer here, we haven't avenged him yet, we must protect ourselves and our other brothers, so that we can have a chance to take revenge! But first, the brothers had to survive and had to leave Great Britain. ”

"Leaving Great Britain?" Old Mark was a little panicked: "Then where are we going?" ”

"Northern Ireland! Or the far east! Makars looked resolute: "We the working class must unite!" Well, first the working class in Great Britain came together to flee Great Britain and go to Ireland. There are factories in the northern cities of Ireland, and we can also build our own factories, which belong to our working class, and then we will spin and weave machines for ourselves, and work for ourselves! We can build our own state, our own country of our proletarian workers, and everyone is a shareholder of the state......"

"Make Ireland the home of our working class, the home of the workers! In the future, we will welcome all the working class and the unemployed in the world, let them have jobs, and create a better life with their own labor......"

Old Mark was a little stunned. What a great wish it is, and if there really is such a day, it will be exciting to think about, but, is it possible? Will there be such a day?

Seeing Old Mark looking at him suspiciously, Mackhas woke up from his confusion and said, "The Chinese Empire will support us!" Their emperor was a great and enlightened monarch who sympathized with us working class and was willing to help us! Well, I can only reveal so much, now the situation is urgent, and one more day of delay will be one more day of danger for our workers, and more manpower will be lost. Old Mark, you are Haney's brother and my friend, can I trust you? ”

"Of course!"

"That's good! Hurry up and inform the rest of your brothers who are still safe, and tonight you will take a merchant ship from Hamburg and divert to Hamburg and then go to Ireland! Stay safe along the way. ”

Meanwhile, inside a remote residence in London.

Zeng Jize, the head of the intelligence station of the secret service department in London, is convening several agents of the intelligence station to discuss.

"Everyone, I just received the order from the upper peak, and now I have an urgent and arduous task to complete immediately!" Zeng Jize glanced at everyone and said calmly: "I know that the recent bloody massacre by the British government has not only caused heavy losses to the workers who rioted, but also lost half of the manpower of our London intelligence station, but this cannot affect our completion of the task. ”

"Stationmaster, I'm okay with Lin Yuchi's side! I also had four Irishmen under my command, and I had brought their families to Canton, and they were loyal to the Chinese Empire and would never betray them. One of his men replied immediately.

"Stationmaster, I may not have enough people on my side. Almost all of the native Englishmen we recruited in Westminster defected, but luckily I saw the opportunity early and got rid of the two traitors and cut off the contact. The other person also reported it.

"The mission was to smuggle as many rioting workers as possible to Ireland! Of course, the British army had already begun to blockade Ireland, therefore, it was not possible to go directly from London to Ireland, but to make a detour........ This time, I personally commanded the unified command, according to the arrangement, every two people are responsible for contacting a merchant ship, specifically contacting the joint and the code, I have written on these notes, each of you take one over, and this matter is done......" Zeng Jize finished explaining, looked at the clock on the table, and said: "It's almost time, let's get busy, I should also go to see Mr. McCas!" ”

..........

A few days later, London, the Prime Minister's official residence.

Security Secretary Wallace and War Secretary Panmel Ramsey came to Prime Minister John Russell's office in high spirits and reported with great surprise: "Mr. Prime Minister, great news, after a week of military operations, the riots throughout Great Britain have been largely brought under control, and the rebels in the major industrial cities of London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Glasgow and other places have almost all been put down. Only in some towns there were still sporadic rioting workers, but now they are also in hiding and dare not show their heads. ”

Russell tried his best to appear a little calm, but the surprise in the corner of his eyes could not be hidden, and said: "Mobilize so many troops, nearly 200,000, and encircle and suppress less than 200,000 scattered riot workers, if you can't succeed, then Great Britain will be finished!" Ramsay, let's talk about it, what about the specific casualties? This crackdown killed so many workers, although they were all poor people at the lowest level, but after all, they were also the children of Great Britain, and it was still necessary to deal with them properly, keep them strictly confidential, and not let those reporters write some reports indiscriminately, so as to eliminate the impact and avoid those countries in Western Europe accusing the British government of being too cruel. ”

Ramsey said: "Mr. Prime Minister, don't worry, I don't want to be drowned out by the saliva of those journalists in Europe. At the time of the military operation, the roads leading to the outside world in all major cities were already under martial law, and those newspapers and reporters were sent to keep a close watch on them, so that they could not scribble! As for the casualties, this time the casualties were so large that so far, we have not fully counted them. According to preliminary estimates, nearly 5,000 of those mobs were killed on the spot by our troops, perhaps exceeding, who knows, the scene was too chaotic to be counted, and it is estimated that more than 3,000 people were shot in London and Birmingham alone. The number of injured is even higher, estimated at around 20,000 or 30,000, and the number is even more difficult to determine. Nearly 50,000 people were arrested and imprisoned, and the remaining 100,000 or so fled to urban slums and countryside. However, our army also suffered a lot of casualties, especially the mob in the early stage, as well as muskets and other weapons, about six or seven hundred soldiers died in the conflict, and three or four thousand infantry were wounded. ”

After listening to Ramsay's report, Russell breathed a long sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said: "For the sake of Great Britain and Her Majesty the Queen, Mr. Ramsay and the soldiers have worked hard!" Those leaders of the rebel parties who participated in the riots were to be severely tortured, ordered to confess to the masterminds behind them, and after interrogation, those who should be executed were executed, and those who should be exiled were exiled! Britain has finally been at peace, and Her Majesty can sleep peacefully! As you know, Her Majesty is very sad because of Prince Albert's serious illness, and she is in anxiety and worry every day, and the state crisis has kept her awake all night. ”

Wallace chimed in: "yes. Her Majesty, she is really so unlucky! Fortunately, Prime Minister Russell has you to share her worries. ”

Speaking of this, the smile on Russell's face faded, and he said with some seriousness: "The British Empire has begun to become more and more uncomfortable in recent years. I don't know when the British Empire became what it is now, and it was even rebelled one after another, and the chaos came to this! The pacification of Great Britain is now only the first step. It's still a long way from Great Britain settling down! ”
