1825 My New Daming

Chapter 498 London Commune! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)
Well, the British Empire has lost another emperor (king)!
A group of trade unions, chambers of commerce, and heads of the banking industry in the meeting room couldn't help sighing.

Why is this British emperor so ignorant?Charles I was reversed, James II was reversed, and William IV is now reversed. This is three reversed!This is not counting the "anti-kings" of England before Cromwell Jr. and the Tudor dynasty!

Let's see how good the emperor of the Eastern Ming Empire is?Since King Wuzhong of Zhuge rejuvenated the Ming Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties were good emperors who kept their own law and order, and none of them dared to rebel against the Eight Great Aristocratic Families.It seems that it is not unreasonable for this Ming Dynasty to become the number one empire leading the world. The way of controlling the superiors of the loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty alone is more than one grade better than the House of Commons of the British Empire.

"Don't sigh, gentlemen. The situation in the United Kingdom is extremely dangerous. The stubborn and heavily armed royalists and murderous foreign mercenaries are slaughtering the people of London! If we can't stop the killing of the royalists and foreign mercenaries, wait for them Kill the protesting people, and the Vickers Arsenal will kill us!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the meeting room panicked.

The most panicked one is probably Nathan Rothschild. He is the richest person in Britain outside of the royal family.However, the royal family’s money is “dead money”, which belongs to the royal family in theory, but is actually controlled by the parliament, and the royal family cannot use it at all. This is the most important reason why the British royal family was gradually controlled by the parliament after the Glorious Revolution (William The emperor lost control because he had the "big treasury" of the Indian Empire)!And Nathan Rothschild's money is real estate, stocks, bonds and other financial assets that may be confiscated at any time!Moreover, in order to buy the bottom, he has recently used the bad news that Britain is about to lose the war to suppress the financial market, and then bought high-quality assets on a large scale.If Emperor William succeeds in the rebellion, can he keep his little fortune?
Thinking that the ill-gotten wealth accumulated over the years would soon be confiscated, I lost my mind for a moment, so I followed the voice and found that the person speaking was an old man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a sharp nose, who was the leader of the British trade union, Robert . Owen.

Of course Robert Owen is one of the most hated British capitalists by Nathan Rothschild!

This guy would have been a very capable capitalist!But he was not a good capitalist, he had to think about "the world is for the public", and he went to Daming to investigate, wanting to learn from others' advanced experience of "the world is for the public".After returning from his studies, he proposed to allocate land to the British working class-isn't this nonsense?Not to mention where does this field come from?Even if there are fields and land, they cannot be distributed to the working people in the UK!If working people have their own land, will they still be willing to work in factories as cheap labor?Haven't you seen the price of workers in the United States and Ming Dynasty?Their hourly wages are 50%-100% more expensive than British workers!Even Australia's "thieves with troops" earn much more than the hard-working British working class.
Therefore, Owen's opinions were ignored in the UK.But he refused to give up, and gathered a group of friends who were as cranky as he was, sold their properties and went to the United States to set up a "New Harmony Commune". In the end, he lost everything and returned to England empty-handed.After returning to the UK, he was elected as the chairman of the British National Great Unification Trade Union because his views were very popular with British laborers!
However, at that time, Ming and Great Britain were already in a state of "undeclared war". When the enemy was at hand, Owen stopped messing around. After two or three years of stability, he gradually entered the power circle of the British Empire.This time to expel the Emperor Z, of course he, the leader of the trade union, has to come forward to shake people-although it is completely "legal" for the British Army and the Parliament to join forces to get rid of the King, the Duke of Wellington and the leaders of the Parliament are still worried that the Army will rebel Addiction is not easy to control After thinking twice, I still feel that we can first act first and then fight, first let the trade union shake up the man-made momentum, and then give a large amount of "abdication money" to let Emperor William run away by himself.

But unexpectedly, Emperor William was so decisive that he directly ordered the British King's German Infantry Regiment and the Gurkha Royal Guard to open fire!

Once the fire is fired, there is no room for bargaining-this is no longer a question of more money, but a question of life and death.

At the thought of "I live and die", Nathan Rothschild also became ruthless - he is a big capitalist!Financial predators!You can't sit still!
He stood up abruptly, gritted his teeth, waved his fists, and said loudly: "We can't just sit and wait for death! We can't just sit here and wait for the emperor's army to come and slaughter! We must immediately."

He wanted to say run away immediately
But Robert Owen suddenly took up the topic loudly: "We must fight! We must arm the workers of the Wesker factory!"

Arm the workers?
Nathan Rothschild thought something was wrong when he heard it!
Armed workers Why does this sound a bit like the French Revolution?
Robert Owen didn't wait for Nathan Rothschild's objection, and said quickly and hastily: "London is the largest city in the UK, with a population of 200 million, and the largest industry in the UK, including a large number of arsenals! There are a large number of banks with countless gold and silver coins in their vaults! If the emperor controls London, he will control 200 million people, countless gold and silver and a large number of arsenals!

Moreover, London is also the capital of the United Kingdom, and all those who sit on the fence are looking at London, whoever controls London will win the support of these fencers.

Don't forget, the reason why Charles I lost the civil war was because he failed to take London resolutely at the beginning of the war! "

Not to mention, Owen's words are still very reasonable.The gain or loss of the capital is a symbolic event in any country's civil strife. For example, the French revolution is based on Paris, while the UK is based on London, the Raksha Kingdom is Petersburg, and Austria is Vienna.Even if it is the Ming Empire in the east, the ownership of the northern and southern capitals is also very important.

Therefore, if Emperor William can quickly control London before the start of this civil war, then he is likely to reverse the unfavorable situation and achieve a headwind comeback.

The army ministries that now support Victoria and the Duke of Wellington may turn their backs to support the emperor.

Thinking of the possible victory of the emperor, the rebellious officials and thieves present were all afraid, and expressed their support for Owen's proposal.

"The workers must be armed immediately!"

"Yes! Never give up London!"

"If London is given up, we will lose most of our property, even if we can save our lives!"

"Fight with the Emperor"

Of course, the rebellious ministers and thieves were unwilling to sit still, and they all launched a ruthless effort.

Nathan Rothschild has also made up his mind - his bank in London is too important, and there are a lot of gold, silver and bills stored in it. Once the emperor takes it away, the Rothschild family will be ruined!
However, he was not worried about letting the workers mess around with guns, so he looked at Owen with burning eyes: "Mr. Owen, we can arm the workers, but how should we lead them?"

"There can be a... a London Commune based on the Great Unity of Trade Unions!"
