C2121 The Chaos of London (2/2)
In the end, it was all because of Benjamin's arrogance. From the bottom of his heart, he looked down on this group of yellow skinned monkeys, and in his heart, he already predicted that the gathering of 200,000 would be an overestimation. How could it reach a level of 400,000?
There was no medicine to sell for regret in this world. Benjamin no longer bickered with Gladstone and quickly took the pen and blank piece of paper from the secretary. He wrote a note very quickly.
”Give this to your Chief of Police, he can use this note to command the troops stationed outside the city! Both the army and the navy will cooperate with you … ”
”Yes!” ”The Prime Minister...” The officer saluted, stuffed the paper into his pocket, and turned to run back.
”Make up the dead sheep? ”This is pretty good …” Gladstone smiled and said, ”I'm just afraid that we won't be able to make it in time. It's almost 7 o'clock, what time does the request for help from the police department go to the barracks?” How many hours will it take for the army to move in? ”
”Can you make it in time for the ceremony? ”I think so …”
”Enough!” Benjamin walked over to Gladstone and growled, ”What time is it now? Can you have a look at the big picture? If you want to attack me, after the welcoming ceremony is over, there will be plenty of opportunities! ”
”You said it earlier, the entire history of Europe, including the humans, is paying attention to this gathering. When that happens, it will be akin to losing the face of an empire. What's there to gloat about?”
Gladstone deliberately put on a frightened look. ”Oh …” My dear Prime Minister, are you reprimanding me? Are you utterly disappointed in me? God, you have wronged me, have you not seen all my efforts? ”
”Sacrifice? I only saw your sarcasm! ”If you don't attack my budget allocation plan in the council, it would be a big help to me!”
Gladstone turned his head and did not bother to look at Benjamin, ”Haha, my Prime Minister, did you only see my weakness? This really makes my heart go cold … I truly brought about a loss of interest on my own. In order to clean up your mess, I have specially mobilized more than three thousand members of the Liberal Party.
”Ai …” I'm afraid they're already working with the police to divert traffic. My efforts can only be exchanged with your reprimand? Really … Tsk tsk … ”Really …”
Benjamin's head started to hurt. He immediately realized that he had been tricked, Gladstone was purposely making a fool out of himself!
Damn it, he actually secretly organized the Liberal Party to help the police maintain order on the streets.
It's over. I'll have to lose points again in front of the queen.
Right at this moment, an energetic voice sounded out beside the two of them, ”Two gentlemen, can you two stop arguing?” Now we have to solve the problem, not aggravate it... ”
”Even if the Liberal Party has three thousand people to maintain order on the streets, it would still be a drop in the bucket. If we want to deal with the four hundred thousand people watching the ceremony, our police force will have to be doubled …”
”In the end, it still depends on the army! I suggest that we ask the royal family to send some of the imperial guards over! ”After all, the imperial guards' military camp is in the city, and there are a thousand soldiers stationed in Hyde Park!”
