Chapter 1150： Let the Indians defend India

It has always been easy to start a war, but difficult to end it. This time is no exception. As a disadvantaged party, Britain must pay a price if it wants to withdraw from this war.

The bombings over the past few days have indeed lowered the expectations of the British people. No matter how low the expectations are, it is impossible for even the mainland to sacrifice.

Do not say that it is to let Ireland, Scotland, and Wales become independent. Even India and the British government do not want to let it out.

Don't want to go back, politicians have always been very low morals, and they can still compromise when necessary.

The situation in India is now eroded. Facing the siege of millions of coalition forces, it is only a matter of time before it falls.

Doomed to fail, then there is a possibility of compromise. Of course, this is only possible, and the arrogant John Bull will not bow his head until the last minute.

In order to force the British to surrender as soon as possible, on October 17, 1905, Franz ordered the combined fleet to go east to the Indian Ocean and launch the Indian General War.

London

Indian Minister Hill: "Since August this year, the enemy has launched fierce attacks on India from the east and the northwest. The situation is extremely critical.

On the northwest battlefield, the enemy has occupied the Fortress, and most of the Pakistan area has been occupied; the enemy on the eastern front has already occupied Burma and is now marching towards the Bay of Bengal.

The colonial government has tried everything possible, and even promised to the Indians: let them be independent after the war in exchange for the support of the locals.

But in the face of the enemy's fierce attack, he still seemed very weak. Especially the enemy's navy has gone east, and it will not be long before the third front will be opened from the sea.

According to the development of the current situation, if there is no reinforcement, we can only abandon the prosperous Indus and Ganges plains and retreat to the Malva Plateau to stand firmly. "

Both the Indus Plain and the Ganges Plain are the essence of India. What is the difference between giving up these areas and giving up India?

It is even more a joke to stick to the plateau. No matter how solid Britain's foundation in India, the colonists are after all.

When you are strong, you can naturally give orders to the heroes; once you show signs of decadence, you will instantly be raged.

In fact, India is no longer peaceful now. If it weren't for the British Empire's long-standing prestige, coupled with Governor Robert's toughness, I am afraid it would have been everywhere.

But no matter how high the prestige is, it cannot withstand the loss of failure. As long as you lose a few more times, the situation will immediately collapse.

Secretary of the Navy Swinding: "It is impossible to send reinforcements! The Suez Canal is in the hands of the enemy, and the Cape of Good Hope has fallen. If we want to go to India, we have to go around a big circle. Time is not allowed."

The reality is so cruel. It is also rushing to the Indian Ocean, and the Royal Navy needs to travel 10,000 nautical miles more than the coalition forces.

If the enemy is really led by the nose, I am afraid that they have just arrived in India, and the enemy will turn around and attack the British Isles.

Without the impediment of the Royal Navy, it would be impossible for Britain to prevent the enemy from landing. Once the British Isles fell, it was really lost.

In essence, if you lose India, you lose money, empire, and the future; if you lose your homeland, you lose your life.

"Reinforcement to India is indeed unrealistic. The situation has developed to this stage. Britain is already an enemy of the whole world. What we can do now is to reduce losses for the empire.

For the great Britain, we cannot give up any hope until the last minute.

Even if India can't hold on, we can't make the enemy cheap. Didn’t Governor Robert promise India’s independence? Let the Indians take up arms to defend their own country! "

It can be seen that Adam is an occupational disease criminal. As the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the British Empire, Adam is also best at being a "shock stick."

In the case of all enemies in Europe, pulling up the Ocean Alliance is enough to prove his ability. Even if the alliance eventually collapsed, it is not a diplomatic problem.

With his own lack of strength, diplomacy alone cannot reverse Britain’s decadence, but using diplomacy to trouble the enemy, Adam is still a professional.

"You are crazy!"

"Once India is allowed to become independent, we will completely lose the subcontinent, and the British Empire will sink!"

Chancellor Asquith growled.

"The jewel in the queen's crown" is not a vain name. India will contribute hundreds of millions of pounds of wealth to the British Empire every year. Without this income, Britain would be an ordinary power.

Foreign Secretary Adam: "Your Excellency, calm down, no one said to abandon India. It's just that we can't protect the subcontinent by our own strength.

Only when the enemy realizes that India is not only a "butter cake", but also a hedgehog, can the prying heart of the hungry wolves be dispelled.

India is in the hands of Indians, and we still have a chance to get it back. But once it falls into the hands of the enemy, it is completely hopeless.

The top priority, we still have to find a way to survive the current catastrophe. History has proven that no alliance can last for a long time.

Right now the enemy is in the sky, and we are unable to fight against it. This requires a temporary dormancy, waiting for the enemy to split.

If the empire can survive this disaster, we can naturally return to India in the future..."

Perhaps it was in the speech state, Adam became more and more vigorous, as if he had been intoxicated.

There is no tacit understanding of everyone, and people always need hope. No one wants to be a loser, and everyone present is no exception.

Now betrayed by allies, Britain is unable to win the war. You are about to become a loser, and everyone is naturally unwilling.

Regardless of Adam's plan, how low the probability of success is, it is better than no plan.

He did not join the verbal battle around India, and when everyone was discussing it, Prime Minister Campbell said indifferently.

"Restart the negotiation!"

...

Another year of winter comes, and St. Petersburg has already approved the silver outfit. Compared with before the war, Nicholas II at this moment seems to be ten years old.

Since the war has been going on, if the British Empire will become the biggest loser, then the Russian Empire will be the second biggest loser.

The Russian-Austrian alliance, which lasted for nearly a hundred years, finally came to the corner. In essence, becoming the hegemon of the world, the Vienna government finally couldn't bear it and hit its allies.

The Russian Empire, which was just a restricted supply of materials, was already on the verge of collapse.

To know this restriction, it is not the Holy Roman Empire that is engaged in it. Almost all the member states of the Continental Alliance have participated.

The Vienna government still has a face, even if it restricts the supply of materials to Russia, it only reduces the amount of materials imported, but did not completely cut off the supply, and even helped the tsarist government to keep the frontline army.

Other allies don't have such a face.

Raising prices is fairly gentle, and prohibiting the export of strategic materials to Russia is just a routine operation. The most ruthless thing is not only banning them, but also seizing materials imported into Russia through their own countries.

It is called "temporary expropriation". It is not a big deal that everyone is allies borrowing some supplies, they are all for war needs, and they will definitely be returned after the war.

"After the war", it sounds like funny. The war is over, why do you need strategic materials?

Faced with such shameless behavior by his allies, Nicholas II gritted his teeth with anger.

If this happened at the peak of the Russian Empire, it would definitely be revenge without even thinking about it.

Unfortunately, this is not the era of the Russian Empire. In the face of the almost provocative and shameless behavior of his allies, Nicholas II could only choose to temporarily forgive.

Those who retaliate against the horse, just think about it in secret. The raging Russian Empire has no ability to retaliate against European countries.

Don't say it was detaining supplies, even when retired officers from allies appeared in the rebel army, Nicholas II chose to pretend to be confused.

If you are too sober, you may not face the "retired officers" of your allies, but "active soldiers".

"What do the Austrians say, so many things have happened, don't you need to give us an explanation?"

Catch the thieves and the king, a discerning person knows at a glance that countries who dare to unscrupulously pit the Russian Empire must have gained the acquiescence and even support of the Holy Roman Empire behind them.

Nicholas II had no confidence, and directly asked the Holy Roman Empire for justice.

The supply of supplies has not been completely cut off, which proves that the Vienna government only wants to take the opportunity to weaken the Russian Empire, not to kill the Russian Empire.

Allies are used to cheat, and the Tsarist government also did nothing less to cheat teammates. Back in the day when the Vienna government wanted to unify the German region, the tsarist government also made small moves.

Now the feng shui turns, and the troublemaker has become the Holy Roman Empire, and it is the turn of the tsarist government to suffer.

Foreign Minister Mikhailovich replied helplessly: "The explanation given by the Vienna government is that it is under investigation.

At the same time, it is recommended that we reflect on our past actions and repair the relationship between the allies to avoid unnecessary trouble. "

"Warning", naked "warning".

At this moment, the little brother who used to follow the Russian Empire no longer exists, replaced by the revived world hegemon.

Since it is the overlord, it is inevitable that the domineering is exposed. Nicholas II was out of luck and happened to catch up with this "special period".
