"This time, Long Yan put down paper, but what about next time?"
"They can drop paper, and they can drop cannonballs!"
"No matter how difficult it is, we must find a way today to ensure the safety of the palace!"
In the parliament, the British ministers and members were livid.
Those congressmen were guarding the thin paper on the table, frowning even more. They didn't know what to do now.
No one has ever encountered this situation.
If the Long Yan Army releases bombs next time, the capital of Ireland will inevitably fall into a sea of flames.
"Why don't we build cellars, just like those in wineries? No matter how powerful the bomb is, it will still damage the cellar."
One of the ministers had an idea and said quickly.
Everyone's expressions were grim: "What if Long Yan continues to bombard us?"
"Hiding in the cellar, we can't even breathe!"
"It's better to build a fortress. As long as the walls are thick enough, bombs can't hurt us."
"As for the time, Long Yan's next bombing may be today or tomorrow. No one can say for sure!"
"We don't have that much time to build enough forts!"
Everyone fell into silence again.
King George III stared at this group of MPs and ministers who could not come up with a solution, and cursed mercilessly: "You usually pay attention to each one of them, why is it that now at the critical moment, no one knows what to do?"
"Are we still going to hide?"
Being scolded by George III, they, the members who could check and balance the king, could not say a word.
No one has encountered this method.
But at this time, Old Pete appeared and sneered coldly: "If I knew this at the beginning, I shouldn't have fought against the Long Yan Army!"
George III looked at Old Pitt, Britain's First Prime Minister, and immediately became furious.
Now that the situation has reached a fever pitch, this guy is still here making sarcastic remarks!
"Prime Minister, remember you are British!"
Old Prime Minister Pitt faced George III directly, bowed his hands, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, that's why I say this."
George III was about to get angry, but Old Peter changed the topic and said:
"However, the matter has come to this, and there are still ways to avoid the dragon flame attack."
George III narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a nonchalant tone: "Oh, so the Prime Minister has an idea."
After everyone heard this, they quickly looked at Old Pete.
"Prime Minister, do you have any good ideas?"
"You should tell me quickly!"
"Oh, I'm so anxious."
"Everyone, please be patient."
Old Pete clapped his hands and ordered someone to bring up a map. It was a map of the entire Ireland!
After seeing this map, everyone didn't know what Old Pete was going to do.
George III said calmly: "Prime Minister, you'd better think clearly about what you want to say. If it's another useless plan, don't blame me for not giving you a chance!"
Old Pete nodded slightly and pointed his finger at a spot on the map: "Your Majesty, this is our Irish royal palace, and here..."
His finger moved up and landed on a less famous area.
He's right above the Royal Palace of Ireland.
But few people know where it is.
All the British officials suddenly looked at each other, wondering what Old Peter was going to do.
"If Long Yan wants to bomb, it must be the imperial palace. What does it have to do with this place?"
But George III's eyes lit up. He had already guessed what Old Pete was going to do, even though George III had a lot of things he didn't like about Old Pete.
But I have to say that Old Pete is really doing something.
And someone who can do good things!
Old Pete said in a deep voice: "We are going to pretend to be a palace here and let them be bombed on our behalf!"
As soon as this was said, the entire audience fell silent.
Everyone is thinking about the feasibility of this matter. If you want to forge the palace, it is not particularly difficult to do.
A scholar-like congressman said: "This is a plan worth trying. At high altitudes, it is difficult for people to see the buildings on the ground clearly. It is unlikely that Long Yan's aircraft will bomb at low altitudes."
"And at such a high altitude, it is difficult to distinguish the terrain. As long as we make a slight adjustment, Long Yan can avoid this place, and bombing this small county will not be a big problem!"
His speech was recognized by most people present, and everyone felt grateful that the life-and-death crisis had been resolved.
After a brief thought, George III said: "Old Pete, you have found a good plan for us, let's do it."
"What do you think?"
Suddenly, a minister stood up and retorted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Please take back your order. There are still more than 40,000 urban residents who have not retreated."
"If we guide Long Yan to bomb there, they won't be able to escape."
This minister is the minister of the Kingdom of Ireland. Although George III is the king jointly recognized by the four regions of Britain, most of Ireland's affairs in the three administrative areas are handled by themselves.
There are also Irish members in Parliament.
George III did not answer his question and simply ignored him and said: "Let's vote. I don't think anyone will agree with this excellent plan."
Members of the House of Representatives raised their hands to express their approval.
But the Irish minister had already said persistently: "Your Majesty, there are a total of 40,000 people!"
"You can't do this to them!"
He directly stopped in front of George III, making it impossible for the other party to ignore him.
George III's face suddenly turned cold: "Then do you know how many people are in this palace area?"
"Three hundred thousand people!"
"Three hundred thousand versus forty thousand, one person knows how to solve this problem!"
Such a comparison of figures makes the eyes of the Irish Minister darken. The huge gap is not comparable at all.
But a person’s life is also life.
"Then at least these people must be evacuated, which will reduce their casualties."
George III sneered. Seeing such a naive minister, he slowly said: "If Long Yan finds out that they are attacking an empty city, will they give up and continue the attack?"
"This is a worthless little county. Whether it exists or not will not affect Britain's victory, but if we lose."
"All Britain will turn to hell!"
"Do you want to see something like this happen?"
The Irish minister was stunned on the spot. George III signaled his guards and dragged the minister aside. At this moment, he looked at the votes in the palace that approved of this action.
Except for a few Irish MPs and ministers who abstained, everyone else voted in favor.
And such a result is undoubtedly saying that action approves!
Which Irish ministers saw men dressed in the most expensive uniforms in Britain, and raised their palms like gentlemen.
The life and death of 40,000 people were announced. At this moment, the cold that penetrated into the bone marrow swept through the whole body, and the body could not help but tremble.
I have never discovered that death does not necessarily come from battles with enemy troops.
There may also be a decision from someone high up...
