C2410 The two armies confronted each other (1/2)
With soldiers, he had confidence, at the moment, it was as though Tongzhi had God Killing Possession on him, he sat in front of the horse carriage and rushed towards Capitol Building, he wanted to find England for an explanation, or maybe he wanted to take the chance to extort Englishman.
He was an honored guest that you had invited, but you had not even managed to complete the basic security tasks. Shouldn't you give the empire an explanation?
The most important thing was that Tongzhi also wanted to vent his emotions. This assassination had ignited some unknown genes in his heart, and he had also discovered that he had undergone a change.
There was a fire burning in his chest. He had to find a chance to vent it, or else this fire would burn him to ashes.
Xiang Ying really knew how to act, at the moment he received the reins in Zai Chun's hands, and was leading the horses forward, acting as the driver for the Emperor of Tongzhi, the grief and indignation on his face was even greater than Zai Chun's.
There were more and more Londoner gathering around them, the fear on their faces was hard to describe. Countless people drew crosses on their chest for the eastern guests to pray for, and countless people's faces were slightly red.
Also gathering were reporters from all over Europe. London, in 1869, was a bumper year, almost ten years' worth of news.
Later on, scholars had investigated the data and found that in 1869 alone, sales of European newspapers had soared by sixty percent, and that the main credit had come from the Chinese.
Ka ka ka … There were shutter clicks everywhere, and the latest cameras recorded everything that was in front of them. These pictures were destined to become precious archives in the Museum of History.
Traveling west along the Thames River, one could see the Capitol Building and Big Idiot Clock after taking a big turn around the riverbank. However, when the group had just arrived at King's Academy, they were blocked off by the Royal Guards' cavalry.
Duke of Newcastle was the first to arrive at the scene, his head full of sweat. He anxiously stopped the group of sailors before shouting out to Tongzhi, ”Long live, respectful Your Majesty! Please don't be angry, please get out of the car. The Queen told me to come here with a message. British Empire will definitely give you an explanation for this assassination attempt! ”
”What is that …?” Oh God... ”Ugh …” Duke of Newcastle saw the sinister face of the assassin who died with grievance. When had he ever seen such a bloody scene?
At this moment, Zai Chun had also gone mad. He looked at the weak Duke Nexel with contempt and sneered, ”Give me an explanation? Very well, let me ask you, why are there British policemen among the assassins? ”Why is that?”
The crowd burst into an uproar. The surrounding people did not see the scene of the assassination attempt and thought that it was the work of another foreign force.
But today, when they heard that the British police were involved, the citizens who did not know the truth became restless.
”Xiang Ying! I order you to keep going! If anyone dares to obstruct us, beat them up! I don't care if you are a guard or not, today I want the British Parliament's attitude, I want the truth! ”
”Yes!” Your Majesty! Everyone, continue forward! ”Attack with a bayonet!”
A cold light flashed past, scaring all the surrounding Londoner to the point of retreating. More than two hundred sailors were equipped with shiny bayonets, and the cold light reflected on the imperial guards who were blocking the way.
The warhorse began to cry out as it smelled danger. Its steps were a bit restless. The rider had no choice but to try his best to pacify the horse. The originally orderly military formation suddenly became somewhat chaotic.
The Chinese army was just like a bunch of newborn tigers. This new army had their own pride and was fearless against British Empire, the Lion King who had already taken over the whole world, as long as they gave the order, they would retaliate.
