18th century total war

Chapter 374 The Expected Defeat

"My lord, I don't understand, we can clearly nip this uprising in the bud, why should we give them a chance?

Although we carried out the inventory a few hours in advance, by that time most of the revolutionaries had already gathered and agreed on the time for the uprising, which resulted in heavy losses for the leading secret service..."

Parker, the mayor of London, was a little puzzled by Caceres, the commander of the Imperial Guards in the London Capital District, standing in front of him, looking at the source of the gunshots in the distance.

A colonel from France.

Of course, for the officials of the Imperial Guards who have been brainwashed by the ideological stamp, their ancestral home is the most meaningless thing, and they never use their ancestral home as an issue.

I don't even want to hear that others use their ancestral home to form a party for personal gain. The unified Europa Federation Empire is the most important ideological criterion for the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Guards.

If the officers of the Imperial Guard know where the local government officials are grouped together based on their respective ancestry and exclude officials from other states, these officers of the Imperial Guard will definitely let them understand how terrifying the iron fist of imperialism is.

Local nationalism, regional blackness, language discrimination, etc. Any speech that hinders the unification of the empire is the natural object of hostility of the imperial guards.

Moreover, the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Guard enjoy extrajudicial power, and they often do not rely on reasoning to convince their opponents. Physical purification is their common method.

As a matter of course, the mayor of London, the capital city of London, should have all the power in name, but in fact, the mayor of London Parker, even though he has been enlightened by the administration, is absolutely loyal to Li Wei and has the absolute trust of the central cabinet. A colonel of the Imperial Guard still did not dare to overstep.

Respecting the army is a product of the deformed dictatorship of the Europa Federation Empire. Although it is not a military government, it is actually no different from the military government...

However, because the Imperial Guard's observance of military discipline was much higher than that of an army composed of ordinary people, it did not lead to the phenomenon of local warlords disturbing the people.

"Secretary, you're just some gutter rats.

As long as the plan is successful, it doesn't matter how many deaths there are. "

Cáceres replied coldly.

He didn't take the hundreds of casualties of the Secret Service Division and the action team personnel in the London uprising at all.

Parker, the mayor of London, couldn't help but sighed in his heart after hearing this: "In the entire empire, only your guards don't take the Secret Service seriously..."

"My lord, may I know now what is the plan above?"

Colonel Cáceres held back a glance at Parker, the leader in London's political arena, and replied nonchalantly: "It doesn't hurt to tell you now.

After all, the British Isles have not experienced war and merged into the rule of the empire.

And because of the last war, the English have a very bad sense of the empire. Since they entered the British Isles, the revolutionary organizations of the English, Welsh, and Scots have never stopped.

Apart from the full support of the Irish, we are invaders to other peoples in the British Isles. "

Parker took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He is the Englishman that Colonel Caceres said...

"My lord, not all English people are those troublemakers who disrespect His Majesty the Emperor..."

Colonel Caceres nodded slightly and said: "Yes, there are still many obedient lackeys in England."

Hearing the word 'running dog', even the thick-skinned politician Parker also felt a suffocation in his chest and an urge to curse.

Is it easy for him to manage the capital area of ​​London for Emperor Li Wei conscientiously?
As a result, in the eyes of Caceres and the Imperial Guards, is it only worthy of being called a 'dog'?
This was really a shame being dragged to the ground by the other party, and then stepped on twice. If the Imperial Guards hadn't said so, Parker would definitely have made the other party understand what it means to 'trouble comes from the mouth'!
Colonel Caceres did not have the slightest sense of offending anyone, and continued on his own.

"His Majesty the Emperor once said that we need to face a more powerful enemy, and we cannot allow the clowns on the British Isles to conspire in dark corners to endanger the empire.

Those ignorant and ignorant revolutionaries, although not strong in combat, have good lurking abilities. It is too difficult to find and deal with them one by one. We cannot keep playing hide-and-seek games with these bugs in the gutter.

Therefore, those uprising revolutionaries have the opportunity to detonate this London uprising.

Perhaps, even the biggest benefactors behind them, the English compatriots next door, did not expect that these so-called British Youth Party would really have the courage to trigger a revolution. "

"However, the Imperial Guard stationed in London only has the strength of one reinforced regiment, while the rebels number tens of thousands. Can we really hold London?"

Parker said worriedly, this is why he came here today!

Cáceres glanced at Parker disdainfully: "That's not because the police and militia under your command were infiltrated by the British Youth Party and turned into a sieve.

But it doesn't matter, this allows us to clean more thoroughly when we do it.

Mr. Mayor, the current war model is no longer the same as it was a few years ago. Queuing to kill has long been outdated. Our Guards have the most advanced weapons in the world, and the number of people is meaningless to us.

Not to mention a bunch of rabble.

As the mayor of London, you just need to stay in the city government honestly and prepare to appease the emotions of the citizens of London as quickly as possible after the revolution is suppressed.

After this suppression is over, no one in the British Isles will dare to question the orders of His Majesty the Great Emperor!
The British Young Party will eventually be swept into the dust of history. "

When London Mayor Parker found Colonel Cáceres, the tens of thousands of rebels gathered in the suburbs had already completed their merger, many of whom were wearing police and militia uniforms and holding Charles III rifles in their hands.

The number is as high as four figures!
However, most of the tens of thousands of rebels did not even have a decent musket. This was naturally due to the tireless campaign to ban guns after the Europa Federation Empire occupied London.

Although they did not have a musket in hand, the morale of these uprising teams, whose average age was less than 30 years old, was extremely high.

Because after the disintegration of the militia and the police force, there are only a small number of city guards and a reinforced regiment of imperial guards left in the city of London.

Limited by the distrust of the local armed forces in the city of London, the London City Guard, a regular army armed, has always been small in scale, and its main duty is to serve the Imperial Guards to do some logistics and other work.

Not equipped with any heavy weapons.

With tens of thousands of people fighting against thousands of imperial guards and the support of public opinion, the morale of the British Youth Party is naturally unbelievably high.

The morning sun floods the streets of the City of London.

A group of rebels with various equipment, following their respective leaders, began to march towards downtown London.

It is mainly divided into two routes, one attacking towards the arsenal controlled by the Imperial Guards, and the other attacking towards the London City Hall.

"Liberate London, overthrow imperialism, and Britain will win!"

The rebels held high the Mizi flag of the former United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland (the current flags of England and the United Kingdom of Canada were replaced by the maple leaf flag at Li Wei's request when they were defeated, which was regarded as a great shame by the British).

The Union Jack represents the peak period of the British people, and it is also the period closest to the world hegemony.

Especially these English youths who experienced that glorious period in their youth, all yearn for the glory of Britain in that period.

Many people in the rebel army came from the English ruled area next door to participate in the uprising.

It can be said that this time the uprising of the British Youth Party dragged the English government next door into the water, and even if they jumped into the Yellow River, they would not be able to wash it away...

Although the United Kingdom of England and Canada secretly supported the British Youth Party, they never thought of launching a revolution in Li Wei's lifetime. It can only be said that supporting the revolution itself is uncontrollable and has too many unexpected factors.

Many accidents will even endanger the interests of the behind-the-scenes funders.

It's like Saddam Hussein, who was supported by Lao Mei at the beginning, and immediately started to stand on his own after his wings hardened, so that the distraught Lao Mei had to go down and deal with the traitor himself.

Perhaps even the King of Canada never imagined that the British Youth Party they supported could develop so rapidly, infiltrating the militia and police force in London to that extent in just a few years!

Of course, there are reasons for the indulgence of the Imperial Guards, but most of them are powered by the underground activities of the British Youth Party.

On the temporary artillery position in the urban area, dozens of Imperial Guard soldiers were fiddling with five 1820-style howitzers.

1820 was the year when the first batch of new weapons in the Europa Federal Empire passed the inspection of Levy and completed the refitting of new weapons on the production line. Therefore, many weapons used by the Imperial Guards and even local armed forces were named after 1820.

After Li Wei named the most-produced individual rifle with his own name, other weapons are habitually named by the number of years, unless it is a well-known weapon in the history of the previous life in Li Wei's memory, the name of the previous life will be copied .

Although there are many more advanced weapons lying in the imperial scientific research center, considering the cost of installation and the speed of developing new weapons, Levi did not install them, or only carried out a small part of them.

After all, developing mature samples in the laboratory and laying the production line for replacement, the funds consumed are completely two concepts.

Now that the Imperial Guard's armaments have reached the pre-World War I level of Li Wei's previous life, the next change of equipment is estimated to wait until the time is enough to mass-produce World War II equipment.

Of course, Li Wei also listened to Xiaobai's suggestion, and when he completed the deployment of armaments during the First World War, he started the projection of the multiverse bait.

That is to say, visitors from other worlds will take the initiative to release them to the marked continent in the world where Levi lives anytime and anywhere.

Before facing a new threat, Li Wei naturally had to clean up the garbage at home.

Li Wei believes that after a massacre, other ethnic groups in the British Isles should no longer follow the Revolutionary Party to give away their heads.

Without the support of the people, the so-called revolutionary party is in fact no different from a cult organization.

Between the artillery position and the front position, several fast horses have been passing the news, and the firing angle of the howitzer is quickly adjusted, waiting for the instructions of the friendly troops to fire.

It didn't take long for the rebel troops to encounter the barricade defense line built by the Imperial Guards. A hand-cranked Gatling machine gun was placed on the sandbags and the roof of the building, aiming at the gathered rebel army.

This is the first time the Rebels have seen a hand-cranked Gatling!
The Europa Federation Empire has achieved world dominance, and Levi has adopted a technologically advanced economic development route. Naturally, there is no opponent worthy of the Imperial Guards using hand-cranked Gatling guns.

As for the black African tribes that have been beaten by the imperial guards, even the imperial guards in the flintlock era can't handle it, let alone the imperial guards equipped with Charles III rifles...

The hand-cranked Gatling machine gun consumes too much ammunition, so it has not been used in the African battlefield. The original black armed forces are not worth too much ammunition from the Europa Federation Empire.

"Soldiers of Britain, march on and crush the lackeys of imperialism!
Long live Britain! "

"Arise, hungry and cold slaves!
Arise, sufferers of the world!

............"

The resonant "Internationale" sounded again. This song can easily evoke the patriotic sentiment deep in people's hearts, and it has become the military song of the rebel army!

The soldiers of the insurgents walking in front, each armed with muskets or Charles III rifles, held their heads high, almost walking forward with a kick!

Their eyes are firm, their mouths are constantly opening and closing, shouting the heart of their nation!
On the opposite side, the officer of the Imperial Guard, who played the villain role in the film and television drama, silently calculated the distance between the two sides, then suddenly pulled out his command knife, and swung it forward suddenly: "Fire!"

The skilled machine gunner began to shake the handle of the hand-cranked Gatling machine gun slowly, and the ten barrels began to rotate at a constant speed, spraying bullet rain unimaginable in this era.

Tutu Tutu's voice was endless, singing the Internationale, and the rebel army marched in a dense phalanx, like wheat, falling down in a pile of blooming blood.

I don't know if it's because the emotional rhythm of "The Internationale" is too high-spirited, or the rebels of the British Youth Party are stupefied. No signs of breakdown!

At this moment, the sound of rumbling artillery suddenly sounded from the rear of the imperial guards, and a grenade fell into the crowd of the rebel army, and various human body parts were continuously blown away in the explosion.

At this moment, no amount of courage, no amount of resounding "Internationale" could save the rebel army. Their entire dense phalanx was torn into bloody pieces by the grenade from the sky and the rain of machine gun bullets from the front!

The London uprising came to a predictable end as the first man turned and fled, throwing away his weapon.

When the rebel army collapsed, the officers in the forward positions stood up, waved their command sabers again and ordered: "For His Majesty the Emperor, charge!"

"Emperor Li Wei, long live!!!"
