C2399 approaching danger

The intelligence analysis after the assassination attempt was precisely because of Zai Chun's act, which put him in an extremely dangerous situation. It was proven that although it was very safe to arrange the cavalry in two rows, it was definitely not a suitable security measure.

Just like in the streets of Sarajevo, even though Archduke Ferdinand had already encountered a bomb attack, he was still arrogant enough to insist on driving around in the car. The final result was naturally death by the gun of Prue.

Of course, there was no medicine for regret in this world. In fact, every sudden event had a series of small matters that seemed to be unrelated to each other, but strangely, some sort of connection had occurred.

If Tongzhi did not open up the black canvas carts, it would be hard for the assassin to locate him.

If Tongzhi did not let the imperial guards and cavalry soldiers split up to help the police maintain order, then in the instant of the assassination, a small cavalry formation formed by two twenty-five people could at least rush to his side and use their war horses and soldiers' bodies to block the assassin's movements.

If Zai Chun did not have such strong desire for expression, and chose to close the window to speed up the carriage, then this assassination might not have happened at all.

However, if there weren't so many 'ifs', then the invisible hand would naturally be able to make so many 'impossibility' possible.

Zai Chun smiled as he enjoyed the applause of the citizens of England. To be able to obtain so many fans in such a foreign country made the young Emperor extremely proud. The Emperor of Great Qing cheered!

It was such a wonderful feeling! However, not a single citizen was able to kowtow to him. If only they could kowtow to him, then that would be great. Everyone's face was trembling as they kneeled in the dirty mud.

If only they had a submissive braid at the back of their head, that would be a real pleasure.

Zai Chun, who was pretending to be smart, told Gordon, who was beside him, "People are water, society is a boat … Have you never heard of the principle that water can carry boats or capsize boats in China? "

"Be kind to the people, understand? Don't use your stick to hit people if you don't have something to do, you need to know how to manage the people! "

"Look at how good this is. Have the cavalry draw out two lines and tell the common people that these two lines are prohibited from entering. Look …" Didn't they just stop charging forward? "

"If the citizens were to be injured because of me and lose my face, would you be able to take responsibility?"

Zai Chun had really trained himself to such an extent that he spoke with a straight face and a steady heart. He had clearly imagined these lowly commoners to be the servants of the Great Qing, but he still wanted to show that he was the sovereign.

Gordon had also interacted with officials of the Qing Empire before, and knew that he had to curry favor with them now. "Long live the holy light, a merciful heart is truly rare, I believe that in a hundred years, when Londoner recalls the days of His Majesty's visit, he will still feel your kindness!"

"Hahaha …" Not fighting for a hundred years, we only fight for a day and a night! That's easy to do, get rid of the capital's Steel plant, and let the Great Qing's railway use the tracks they make, this is your big contribution! "

"If there is merit, there is reward. In the future, I will definitely reward you with a duke's reward!"

"Thank you!" Once Gordon heard that he could reward the Duke with his Steel plant, the small flame in his heart started to spew out.

The Steel plant of the east side of London were located very far away from the center of the city, outside the east side of the city. At this moment, Tongzhi and the others had not even walked out of the city, at this rate, they would reach the Steel plant at 10: 30 in the morning.

This time, the London Police Department had more than eight hundred policemen assigned to take charge of the order along the way. However, this many people was not enough, they could only be divided into one or two people every hundred meters in the critical areas with a large number of people.

However, the Londoner who had received the news beforehand was extremely enthusiastic. Many commoners and villagers along the way were already waiting on the two sides of the road. Everyone wanted to see the excitement of the day.

The East End of London was a slum. It was a grand welcoming ceremony for the Chinese when they entered London, and only a small portion of the people here had the time to enjoy the show.

Most people still busied themselves with earning three meals a day. They simply didn't have the time or the mood to see what the distant emperor of the East looked like.

However, when they heard that the Emperor was going to pass by their doorstep, that was another story. Since they could see the commotion as soon as they stepped through their doorstep, what was there to wait for? Watching the show was a common hobby among all mankind. If they could see the emperor of the mysterious Eastern Empire with their own eyes, then they would have the ability to brag for the rest of their lives.

As a result, starting from morning, the residents gathered on both sides of the road in groups of twos and threes. The police officers who maintained order were quite busy.

The security care of the Tongzhi Emperor was still very important in Britain. Relaxing on the outside was the principle of security care, and although they did not seem to be overly nervous on the surface, they still had to strictly defend their backs.

Ever since the local citizens started to gather at 7 or 8 in the morning, the police officers began to search them one by one. One of them was responsible for keeping an eye out for dangerous goods while the other was responsible for checking for dangerous goods.

God knows that lunatic has a pistol in his belt, and a bomb in his lunch basket! These hidden dangers had to be eliminated in advance.

The police had been stationed since six in the morning, and the police officers had not eaten breakfast since eight in the morning.

No matter how good-natured a person was, they wouldn't be in a good mood if they starved. Gradually, some police officers started cursing these damned Chinese people.

"Bastard, why don't you just enjoy your life in the west region? If you have enough to eat, you have to come to the dirty and dirty east region. These Chinese people all have weird quirks …"

"Bro, I'm so hungry, why don't we change out and go eat something?"

The policeman who was searching the body of a young girl reluctantly took his hand off his slender waist. He looked at the young girl with a flushed face and smiled, "Alright, you can go now …" Eating? "What are you thinking about? You'll get more and more people soon, and we'll be the only two in charge of this hundred meters. Are you busy enough to come over?"

"Besides, this is the outskirts of the city, where can we find a restaurant or coffee shop?" Endure it … "

At this moment, the pretty girl who had just been touched suddenly brought out her lunch basket and said, "Sir, I have the sandwiches I made in the morning in my basket. If you can give me a position at the front, I can give you half …"

"Aiyo!" Are you really our angel, do you really have a sandwich? "Great, I'll definitely arrange a spot at the very front for you …"

"Ha ha, thank God, bacon sandwiches, cod sandwiches, ham and eggs sandwiches... "You really are my angel. There aren't many people here right now, so let's go rest at the edge of the forest!"
