The King's Road is the centerpiece of the parade route and the most ingenious choice.

On the one hand, it has a direct access to Queens, which is spacious enough, and will pass through some important enough locations, such as the Kingdom Museum, the National Gallery, the Prime Minister's Palace, etc.;

This would be enough of a deterrent.

On the other hand, the area it passes through is also a relatively small part of the city, away from the sight of most citizens, and does not cause major chaos.

This is a sign of restraint.

Of course, the premise is that the crowd of the parade can be controlled, and will not take the opportunity to make trouble and make a big mess.

When departing from the docks, this is of course manageable;

But when the crowd entered the East Zone, the number increased tenfold, and Varina and the core group tried their best to control it, but they could only ensure that the front of the team was controlled;

Next, it wasn't until they set foot on the King's Road that the procession returned to controlled form.

In other words, the march along the way, wherever they walked, brought chaos wherever they went.

The situation is particularly acute in the Eastern District.

There was nothing Varina could do in this regard, and he could only do his best to ensure that after entering the West End, the team would not cause chaos again, and avoid the hostility from the upper echelons to the greatest extent.

……

Beyond the first blockade, the crowd marched along King's Road towards the West End.

Although the blockade did not work in a practical sense, it did a very large role in a symbolic sense.

It showed the official attitude, stopping quite a few people on a psychological level.

When the crowd was about to cross the Tasok River again and actually enter the West End, there were only eight thousand left.

The blockade of less than 100 people, which is virtually nonexistent, actually blocked more than 10,000 people!

This is a bad thing, but also a good thing.

The bad thing is that when the number of people drops, so does the deterrent, and the likelihood that the protest demands will be taken seriously is reduced;

The good thing is that when the number of people goes down, so does the organization, and they are less likely to attract hostility from the top.

Eight thousand people, when they really entered the Western Side, encountered a second wave of blockade.

This time, the number of people involved in the blockade reached 400, not only the police, but also some guards drawn from important institutions.

The team slowed down as they approached a simple barricade made of horse-drawn carriages, tables and chairs, etc.

Varina, along with a few people in the inner circle around her, shouted:

"What are we?"

Eight thousand people responded together, making a deafening sound.

"We are workers!"

"It is the producer of goods, the provider of the kingdom, the cornerstone of society!"

Then he asked, "What do the workers want?" ”

"Workers want to survive!"

"You want a reasonable wage, you want your rights, and you want to live with dignity!"

Again, "What is our appeal?" ”

"Repeal the Corn Laws!"

Shouting neat slogans, the front row of the line approached the barricades.

Small sundries such as tables and chairs were quickly moved to the back of the line; Immediately afterwards, several horse-drawn carriages that were parked were also pushed to both sides of the road.

The team pushed the blocking crowd on, and it didn't take long to break through the second blockade.

Most of the people who came to stop them were scattered and retreated to both sides of the road, and a few were carried by the team and had to follow the team.

At first they were frightened, but after walking a little way, they noticed that the procession had not done anything too out of the ordinary except for the high spirits.

Just follow the road and shout slogans.

It gives them a lot of peace of mind.

A little over an hour later, the team arrived at West Villas Street and met with the third blockade.

This time, there were professional barricades on the road, and the people in charge of blocking them were upgraded from the police to the heavily armed troops transferred from outside the city.

But this time, Varina didn't want to let the parade break through the blockade again.

It was at this time that several police officers and guards who were wrapped up came in handy.

Varina handed them a thick petition and told them to communicate with the army; As for the marching workers, after a day's walk, they should be allowed to sit down and rest.

At this time, there were still 5,000 people.

Most of the more than 2,000 people who gathered in the dock area were there, and they all brought dry food and water, while the other half who joined halfway were basically empty-handed.

Several core members, such as Varina, are dispersed to coordinate resources and ensure the basic needs of all.

……

Ten o'clock at night.

One of the soldiers who closed the road shouted that the petition had been sent to the Sodrak Palace and to the royal eucalyptus, demanding that the procession be disbanded in batches.

That's exactly what Varina wants to hear.

In fact, even without this news, he would have disbanded the team in the second half of the night.

His purpose has been achieved.

Even if the petition did not reach the palace, such a loud procession, Varina did not believe that George III would not see a chance to play on the topic.

On the other hand, the chaos caused by the march also brought him a lot of feedback on his performance.

He estimated that he was at least halfway through the digestion of his "instigator" potion.

Once the decree to repeal the Corn Laws is issued, he should be able to reap a wave of even greater feedback for his performance.

In this case, even if it can't be fully digested, it is estimated that there is only one key "code of play" missing.

Moreover, during this time, he has always had the act of abetment, and he has a deeper understanding of abetment.

In his view, the so-called "instigators" are misleading and inducing others through various means, mainly language, to gain the trust of others, so that others can cause disasters without knowing it.

Varina thinks she's playing the right job.

Of course, the specific effect depends on the final feedback results.

Taking advantage of the initiative of the opposing army, Varina actively fought for it and bargained with the officers who shouted on the opposite side.

However, it didn't take him a few words to get an unexpected good treatment -

Three additional steam subways were temporarily opened to transport all workers to the subway station on White Rum Street in the Bridge District.

It seems that the upper echelons actually intended to do this, quickly dismissing the parade......

He was still a little worried that a leader like him would be detained for investigation.

Now it seems that their group of people is probably not qualified to attract enough attention from the top......

Thinking about it, there are not a few demigods in the royal family of Rune, and if you send out a "legal mage" at random, I am afraid that with just two sentences of "be quiet, sit down", you can completely solve their problems.

……

It's half past eleven at night.

Three steam trains arrived at the White Rum Street station, where the workers dispersed after disembarking.

Only a few people who are good at thinking and don't have enough trust in Varina have some doubts-

Will it be disbanded too easily, and will such a march really work?

Members of the Workers' Union Party felt something quite different.

They regarded this operation as another victory.

The most fanatical duo of more than 200 people, surrounded by Varina and a few other core figures, went all the way to the tavern of the Workers' Union and did not want to disperse.

They don't know, if it weren't for these many pairs of eyes staring, they would most like to disband and run away now-

It's the spiritual leaders they surround.
