Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland in the United Kingdom. It is located on the south shore of the Firth of Forth in the central lowlands of Scotland. It covers an area of ​​approximately 221,707. It is the capital of Scotland. Papermaking and printing and publishing industries have a long history, and industries such as shipbuilding, chemicals, nuclear energy, electronics, cables, glass and food are also important. With the development of the North Sea oil fields, a series of related industries and service industries have been established; important transportation hubs and airports.

Edinburgh has a long history and many historical buildings are well preserved. Edinburgh Castle, Palace of Holyroodhouse, St. Giles Cathedral and other attractions are located here.

But now it's almost impossible to see these famous buildings; they are all occupied by marchers. The people's point of view is very simple. They must have No. 10 Downing Street and even the royal family to give them an explanation. Why are the Scots inherently at a disadvantage? They need to recalculate the revenue from North Sea oil fields and at the same time reduce taxes in Scotland.

In fact, these demands are very reasonable, but at this moment the British Empire is in danger; it is difficult to obtain more funds from the outside and can only continue to squeeze the country. England belongs to the basic market and does not dare to move easily; besides, England's economy has not been booming in recent years, and people's livelihood has been problematic. When taxes are increased, rebellion is necessary.

After all, Scotland has oil and gas resources, so it can only attack them; even though it is clear that this is not very kind, there is no good way. If it were just a parade, the Iron Lady would still be able to tolerate it; but now that it affects the supply of frontline soldiers, we must eliminate it and return to normal life as quickly as possible.

Seeing the armored vehicles coming, the marchers felt incredible. Parades are very normal in Europe, not to say they happen every month, but they definitely happen a few times every year. At most, the police will be dispatched to maintain order, and now the army will be directly dispatched; what exactly does that mean?

Brigadier General Winter didn't want to shoot at civilians. After the incident subsided, he could easily be pushed out as a scapegoat. The top management will do anything to protect themselves.

The order received was to quell the riots, allow people to return to work, and restore social order. The army has already arrived in Edinburgh, so it can't do nothing; if he goes back in despair, his role as brigade commander will come to an end.

Although he was reluctant, he still ordered his subordinates to start shouting; to ask people to return to work or go home directly; not to gather in the square, giving enemy agents an opportunity.

The idea is very good, but the person who calls it out has not been chosen well; it can only be said that Brigadier General Winter does not fully understand his subordinates!

Leitner, staff major of the British 7th Armored Brigade; of course he also has another identity, a typical nationalist; at the same time, his grandmother is also a down-and-out noble. For the Anglo-Saxon victory theory, he always believed that he had aristocratic blood; his ancestors had always served in the Royal Navy. Later, due to various reasons, he had no choice but to join the army.

You must know that in the UK, the first choice for aspiring young people is the Royal Navy; after all, the Royal Navy played an important role in making the British Empire an empire on which the sun never sets. As for the fact that the army cannot be called a royal, you know how big the gap is.

In the development process of the British Army, Cromwell was a very important node; the first one was the New Model Army. At this point, the British army began to be uniformly supported by finance, that is, the standing regular army.

Prior to this, the British Army was still in a fragmented and patchwork state. A simple understanding is that the soldiers basically belonged to the local lords, and the king also paid to support some; they were gathered together before the war. This makes the British army's combat effectiveness very average; after all, the soldiers belong to each lord, and whether they work for the king or not, and how much effort they provide, depends on the lord's face. Even if he has money to earn, he is still reluctant to leave his hometown to fight for others.

The 22,000-person New Model Army directly became the prototype of the modern British standing army; an infantry regiment of 1,200 people was the predecessor of the modern British Army.

But the target of this standing army was the British king; it directly defeated the army of King Charles I and forced the British monarch to abdicate. Scholars believe that this is the reason why the British Army does not have a royal title!

This is indeed the case; the fact that the British Army does not have a royal title does have a lot to do with Cromwell; it was precisely because of Cromwell that after the restoration of the Stuart Dynasty, the British Army no longer belonged to the king. Since the army does not belong to the king, there is no need to use the royal title!

This makes traditional British aristocrats and young people from military families very resistant to serving in the army. As a noble or traditional military family, their life would be easier if the royal family existed; without the royal family, they would be no different from ordinary people.

The stubborn pride in your bones is difficult to change easily. I was already very unhappy serving in the Army, otherwise I would have been on the front line in the Falkland Islands. As a young officer, I still wanted to go to war to prove myself.

Now that I see that the Scots are so ungrateful, I feel even more unhappy; I want to kill all the Scots in front of me to avoid stabbing them in the back!

Leitner loudly shouted into the loudspeaker: "This is the 7th Armored Brigade of the British Empire Army. We have received orders that enemy agents are carrying out sabotage activities in Scotland. Now please all marchers to return to work or go home directly; otherwise Enforcement measures will be taken in ten minutes.”

The scene was very noisy, and Brigadier General Winter was discussing with the Chief of Staff and others how to disperse the crowd. The sound insulation effect of the British armored vehicle command vehicle was really good, so the specific content of the subordinates' shouting was not heard.

For ordinary people, we should try our best to appease them; if they come up, we should give them ten minutes. After all, before the Scots took to the streets to march, the police would at most be there to maintain order and avoid unrest.

Some people at the scene didn't know what was going on. They only heard that they had to leave in ten minutes. It was a clear show of force. It's unbearable, how can you be easily frightened.

There were KGB agents hidden in the parade; I didn't expect that the British would dare to send out troops. I really underestimated them before; isn't this an opportunity!

England and Scotland themselves have deep conflicts, and the media have continued to report various injustices in recent days, which has brought the public's anger to the peak. If they add fuel to the fire at this time, the UK will definitely not feel good.

Being able to serve in the KGB, his ability to adapt to changes is definitely not bad; at least it is much better than ordinary people.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "This is Scotland, the English troops get out."

As soon as the words fell, they immediately resonated; at this time, all the Scottish people at the scene thought it made sense. Why should the English army enter Scotland's land? It's plain that they are here to frighten them, which is simply unreasonable!

Not only did they shout for the British troops to get out, but some extreme people also picked up stones and attacked the 7th Armored Brigade of the British Army.

Major Leitner had to stand at the highest point because of his shouting; unfortunately, he became the first target. I don’t know what it was, but it flew directly towards the door.

If it was hit on the head, it would be okay; I was wearing a helmet before coming here. Even if you get hit by a rock, it's no big deal. But what a coincidence, he came directly towards the door; plus he was standing on an armored vehicle, the area of ​​movement was limited; it was too late to dodge!

I felt my eyes go dark and blood flowed down instantly.

Major Leitner still considers himself a handsome guy and usually pays great attention to his personal image; now that he has been directly disfigured, you can imagine how he feels. Not to the point of being extremely angry, but not even close to that.

After all, he is a soldier, and he did not lose his guard at the critical moment; he wiped the blood from his face with his hands, and his eyes could basically see the surrounding things clearly!

Since he was shameless and dared to attack him, Major Leitner decided to show the Scots some shame. The blood debt must be repaid with blood. Regardless of others, his blood cannot be shed in vain. It doesn't matter if she bleeds a little. The most important thing is that she has been disfigured; how can she bear it?

He took out his gun and fired directly at the people throwing objects at him without any hesitation.

After all, he was still a young man and could not hold back at the critical moment; with the sound of gunshots, people fell to the ground, and the scene instantly became quiet.

No one expected that the army would actually dare to shoot; ordinary people who had seen this were at a loss for a moment. At the critical moment, everyone is afraid of death!

But in the eyes of the KGB agents, this was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; the British army dared to shoot at their own people, and they really admired the other party's courage. It would be a serious dereliction of duty if you don’t take advantage of it!

Immediately began to incite the people, using the slogan of revenge for the dead comrades; launched an attack on the army!
