C2257 Anti-Chinese Incident (2/2)
Facing these waves of protest, Xiao Letian chose to retreat, causing the protester s to become even more frantic. In the end, they actually gathered together and walked towards the Eastern Palace Aristocrat Clan, where more than two hundred people bet on the Head of the Guards' residence door to the point that not even a drop of water could leak out.
”Murderer... War criminals... Let go of our soldiers... Go back to Asia! ”
”Judgement this homicidal maniac, to avenge those soldiers who died in battle …”
But in the end, all the voices of protest gathered into one sentence, ”Xiao Letian... Die! Xiao Letian... Die! Xiao Letian... ”Die!”
There were only two hundred or so people causing trouble, but there were more than three hundred policemen maintaining order. They only isolated the protester and the people from afar, but did not take any action to stop the thugs.
More than a thousand citizens of London who were watching this farce furrowed their eyebrows. The citizens who grew up in the capital city of British Empire had a higher standards than the average citizen, even if they were normal citizens, they could smell the conspiracy behind this.
The sandbags at the main entrance of the Eastern Palace were piling up higher and higher. The soldiers at the back had already put their rifles in the sandbags, and when the policemen saw that the situation was bad, they immediately rushed over and formed a human wall, blocking the distance between the gun and the protester.
When the protester saw the police's attitude, they naturally became even more arrogant.
Just as the situation was in a state of chaos, within a house with a roof opposite of the Eastern Palace. Benjamin was smoking a cigar as he looked at the Eastern Palace as though he was facing a great enemy.
”Heh heh, what a joke. What's your plan now? Weren't you the one with peerless apologies? Come out and reason with these French and Soviets? ”Hahaha …”
Beside him, Sha Russia's Deputy Envoy, Yi Wan, had a face full of scalding pockmarks as she smiled obsequiously, ”That's right, this scoundrel dared to act so unbridled just because you and the Queen are both civilized people. If we really let him face our citizens, he would have to be a deserter!”
Count of Eight-bridge Montaubon drank a large glass of whisky and his face turned red. ”What a plan, what a plan!” The Prime Minister's counterattack directly shattered all of Xiao Letian's media campaigns … ”
”Aren't you quite reasonable? Come out and tell me... No matter how much you say it, it wouldn't be better than doing it. Do you really think that spending so much money to advertise in the newspapers is enough to put pressure on the Head of State? ”
”Hahaha …” Now let's see who can pressure who! If you dare to put pressure on the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister can do the same to you and crush you to death … ”
Benjamin spat out a large eye circle, then fiercely pressed half of the cigar in his hand onto the wooden table and said, ”Let these people continue messing around, you guys go back and send a telegram to French Emperor and His Majesty the Tsar, tell them that I am personally willing to join the anti-Hua Clan Alliance …”
”But I have to get past the council. Many things can't be dictated by me. Let them stay in your own country! Let's build up the public opinion and let your diplomats join your allies as soon as possible …”
”We have to make sure this alliance is formed before Xiao Letian leaves London. As long as there is an agreement between the parties, I will take him down!”
”Go …” The liveliness is enough, let's go to work! ”
