Chapter 500 What? My great hero is gone? (Please subscribe, please vote)

March 18, London.

It's all chaos!

The whole of London has been in chaos since the afternoon of March 17th!

In the morning, only St. James's Palace, St. James's Square and several surrounding blocks were in chaos. But with the sound of suppressive gunshots and the London workers who narrowly escaped from the "slaughterhouse" around St. James's Palace, the Emperor

News of the use of German and Indian troops to kill innocent people in London spread throughout the city. The city, which was originally filled with revolutionary firewood, quickly ignited the raging fire of revolution!

Although London was also the financial center of Europe at this time, it was also an industrial center. A large number of factories were opened along the Thames River, among which textile factories, chemical factories, and arsenals were the most common. There were also several factories that could produce small and medium-sized warships.

There are shipyards and even an aircraft factory! You can say that any kind of arms you want can be made in London.

In addition, since it is wartime, the chemical factories in London are working at full capacity to produce gunpowder and explosives, and the arsenals everywhere are also running 24 hours a day. The large quantities of guns, ammunition and artillery produced are piled up before they can be transported away.

Among the warehouses of chemical plants and arsenals. The largest of them, Vickers Factory, has ammunition, guns, artillery, and warships. In its huge London factory, enough weapons and ammunition to arm tens of thousands of troops are stored.

!

Starting from the afternoon of March 17, workers in London's industrial areas began to arm themselves with weapons shipped from various arsenal warehouses under the leadership of the trade unions and the newly established London Commune.

While the workers were being armed, the flag of the Republic of England, with a red cross and a harp on a white background, was also mass-produced by workers in London garment factories. By the evening of the 17th, almost the entire London industrial area was flying.

Carrying the flag of the Republic!

In other areas of London, most of them were controlled by the King's German Infantry Regiment under Emperor William. Emperor William still felt that it was not appropriate to use Gurkhas to occupy the middle and upper-class neighborhoods of London. Because of this group of Gurkhas

They look too much like foreigners (actually they are foreigners), and letting them occupy various boroughs in London looks like Britain has been colonized.

However, these brutal Gurkha Royal Guards would not remain idle. Emperor William, who had already made up his mind to be a Cromwellian ruler, commanded his Royal Gurkha Guards to launch a counterattack starting from the evening of the 17th.

Attack on London Industrial Area.

The battle started after dinner! The Gurkha Guards first mobilized a dozen 2.75-inch artillery to bombard several textile factories on the edge of the industrial area. The London Commune did not show any weakness, and engineers from the Vickers factory

They pulled out more than twenty 6-inch and 3.7-inch cannons from the factory's production lines and warehouses, and fired fiercely in the direction of St. James's Palace. The cannonballs filled with picric acid fell around St. James's Palace, and soon

It almost ignited a forest and the house of St. James's Palace. The flames soared into the sky and could be seen from far away.

After the bombardment, of course it was the charge of the Gurkha Royal Guards! The brave and capable Gurkhas still wielded a gun in one hand and a machete in the other, howling and storming into the textile factories and London who was guarding there.

Armed workers launched a fierce battle.

At several other entrances to London's industrial areas, armed workers dumped a lot of miscellaneous things from nowhere and built barricades on the streets. The temporarily organized workers' armed forces even took the engine oil and didn't even wipe it clean.

Rifles and Gurkha soldiers started a street fight!

Although the emperor's Gurkha soldiers were very powerful, the London working class was not weak either - because the war had been going on for some time, and seeing the war situation becoming increasingly unfavorable, Emperor William issued an order to organize the British a few months ago.

Young people of school age and middle-aged people were ordered to participate in militia training. Therefore, after working for more than ten hours a day, the working class here in London had to spare an hour or two to learn how to use firearms with the London militia (militias were available in all British cities at that time).

Skill!

In addition, many of the workers or petty bourgeoisie who are participating in the London Commune Revolution have served in the British Army and Royal Navy. Some of them also participated in the war against Emperor Napoleon, so they all know how to shoot guns and throw grenades.

The emperor's Gurkha soldiers were not large in number and were not familiar with the terrain of London, and these warriors from the mountains of Nepal were not good at street fighting. They were often ambushed by machine guns and snipers in high places or dark places.

Defeated. However, these Gurkhas are indeed fearless and fearless. Even if they suffer heavy losses, they can persist in attacking! And once they get close, the Gurkha's scimitars are very powerful when they chop.

Therefore, every barricade they captured was surrounded by broken human bodies and severed limbs or heads. It was so bloody that it was too horrible to see!

While attacking armed workers, the Gurkhas did not forget the traditional skill of killing innocent people indiscriminately! They basically killed and burned wherever they hit. They looted, burned and killed along the way, which was extremely brutal.

The ferocity of the Gurkhas also angered the British workers. In fact, they were not good people. They were all brainwashed racists and social Darwinists of the middle and lower classes. They regarded the yellow race as a yellow peril and the Indians as subhumans.

, treating Indians as humanoids, and treating Uncle Black as a slave! Now they are actually being killed like this by the Gurkhas from India. This is simply an insult to their race, and it also makes them feel really colonized.

a feeling of.

The British Empire had been growing for so many years, so why did it become an Indian colony?

This is comparable to the Indian Emperor!

The irritated London workers took up arms and joined the fight. The sound of gunfire, cannons, and fighting broke out all night long. The fire spread from block to block, and some scum among the workers took the opportunity to start shopping for zero dollars. The entire London industry

The area is in chaos!

In this chaos, the telegraph office and telephone office in London were affected. The professionals in the telegraph office and telephone office were also members of the trade unions, so they naturally knew who to support? So as soon as the gunshots at St. James's Palace rang out, they cut off

The telephone and telegraph lines were gone.

The London workers' armed forces launched a bombardment on St. James's Palace and destroyed the long-wave radio station of St. James's Palace. Now it was difficult to send Emperor William's imperial edict out of London.

But the London Commune had a way to send messages out. Because the telegraph office and telephone office in the industrial areas of London were still functioning, workers and engineers with strong hands-on skills even set up a radio station that could operate 24 hours a day.

Sending false news to the outside world - the anti-D Hanoverian dynasty has been destroyed, and the free Republic of England has been born!

And this terrible news reached Windsor Castle immediately!

Now the rebellious officials and traitors in Windsor Castle were dumbfounded! How could such a huge British Empire disappear in the blink of an eye?

It was clearly a conspiracy to usurp the throne, but how could it lead to the British Revolution? How could Cromwell's Republic of England be a sham?

The atmosphere in the throne room of Windsor Castle was depressing. Everyone cast their melancholy eyes on the doll-like Princess Victoria - Princess, your greatness is gone, what should you do?
