Chapter 180 Building a New India

The British troops stationed in India had different scales in different periods. During the Indian uprising, Britain mobilized 500 British battalions from its homeland, equivalent to 200,000 British soldiers. During World War I, Britain sent nearly 70,000 permanent troops to India.

It also excludes British officers and non-commissioned officers from the British Indian Army. During World War II, the troops stationed in India mobilized from the Dominion and the British mainland were roughly between 300,000 and 500,000. This does not include British officers and non-commissioned officers from the 2.35 million Indian Volunteers.

Currently, the British troops stationed in India are evacuating like the British troops in various places after the war, but there is still a scale of 100,000 in all parts of British India. Alan Wilson thinks that a scale of 100,000 is enough.

It can ensure the safety of 100,000 British Indian civil servants. Don’t look at the small number of British soldiers. It is obviously more ordinary on the Southeast Asian battlefield during World War II, but it does not mean that the British army really cannot fight.

A part of the entire British army is still very good, but as a country focusing on the navy, the army can only deal with wars below a certain scale.

Once the scale of the war exceeds the entire limit, the British army's performance begins to be bad. At the same time, the British army has all the fine traditions of the British Empire, such as selling teammates.

At least when facing the Indians, Alan Wilson definitely had this confidence. He did not believe that 100,000 British troops would be annihilated in British India. The top leaders of the Congress and Muslim League did not have the courage.

The most important thing is that because of the disagreement of British India, London is now inconsistent on how to deal with British India, but Alan Wilson and British India's civil servants can quickly reach an agreement on how to deal with it.

The time to make decisions is definitely much faster than that of far away London, and Alan Wilson's return made many people very happy. But this definitely does not include Mountbatten himself, who found that his daughter became more and more disobedient.

Fortunately, he had heard a certain amount of news. London intends to transfer himself to the Mediterranean Fleet. At that time, as long as he takes his daughter away, he can stay away from the young assistant to the specialist who has rushed back.

Alan Wilson was so busy, of course he didn't know what Pamela Mountbatton's father was malicious about him. He was busy drawing his sword and looking around to see if there was any place he needed to stand up.

There are many problems, but he doesn't necessarily need to go into battle in person. He cannot weaken the peacemakers, so the Duran Line is not used. The territorial dispute between Afghanistan and Pakistan originated from the Duran Line, which was introduced in 1893.

Under pressure from Britain, Afghanistan received a delegation from British Indian Foreign Secretary Duran. Afghanistan was forced to accept the Duran agreement and agreed to the British-Russian arrangements on the eastern border of Afghanistan and the southern border demarcated by Britain.

At that time, Britain submitted a Duran Agreement written in English to King Rahman, with the main content of which was to delineate the border between Afghanistan and British India.

Rahman was forced to give up his sovereignty claims against Swat, Bajar and Chitral and only defended Asmar.

Accordingly, millions of Shitun people were placed on the British Indian side, and British India no longer existed with the independence of India and Pakistan in 2008. Afghanistan and Pakistan once again fell into hostility because of the Duran Line.

Alan Wilson could not attack the gathering areas of the Northwest Peacemakers, which would encourage the arrogance of the Congress party, which was already in an advantageous position, and most importantly, it was not in line with the British Empire's tradition of helping the weak.

As for the McMahjong line? This line has also appeared a long time ago, and there is no role of Alan Wilson. From his current position, it does not require interfering in it, just pretend that it is not seen.

The assistant of the commissioner is essentially a special liking for cash out. After thinking about it, as the newly appointed assistant of the commissioner, he first contacted the British office on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Britain entered the South Asian subcontinent later than the Portuguese and French, but later came from behind. In 1700, the East India Company swallowed Kuchibahar of Bhutan and clashed with Bhutan. From then on, it touched the edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and began to establish trade relations.

The current British representative to Tibet is Li Jisheng. He has been a representative for a long time since 1936. Li Jisheng graduated from the Kebler College of Oxford University in the UK. He joined the Indian Affairs Department in 1930 and was sent to Bangladesh in that year. In the 1930s, he served as deputy chief of Tamluk in the Middlenapul District. During this period, he took advantage of his vacation to visit Sikkim and Pari.

Later, he was transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a subsidiary of the Ministry of Indian Affairs, and met Goode, a British political commissioner in Sikkim, and then became the representative of the UK on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Compared with the Chief Executive of the 18 British Indian provinces and the fourteen Turkish commissioners except Alan Wilson himself, Li Jisheng's weight in British India is actually not very large. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is indeed a place where birds do not shit. Anyway, Alan Wilson will never go.

A strategic position can allow people with insight to go, and their wine bags will not charge forward. This is just like a nationalist shouting to march into Siberia, but the Northeastern people migrate south. Those who shout slogans will be frozen and don’t talk.

Received the invitation from the new commissioner, Li Jisheng, who was temporarily staying in Sikkim due to heavy snow, was overjoyed. Because the telegram was filled with hints of possible promotion, he immediately set off for New Delhi.

In fact, Alan Wilson had no interest in this representative. The other party's greatest achievement should be that he had fought wits and courage with inspectors of the Third Reich on the plateau before World War II.

When the Third Reich Expedition Team entered the plateau, the locals were not unfamiliar with this symbol. "*" or "卍" have special religious meanings in Tibetan Buddhism and the ancient Bon religion, and they can be seen everywhere in the snow. This symbol even won some recognition. In their opinion, these people who came to Europa from thousands of miles away may also be believers in Buddhism.

Li Jishen, who represented the British, had a scheming with these Germans on the plateau that was unknown to the public.

Apart from this, there is nothing to be praised. Alan Wilson remembers that after British India's independence, Li Jisheng had served the Indians, which was intolerable. He could not allow the Indians to accept the legacy of the British Empire.

The British heritage around India must be cashed out before British India can become independent, so that Indians cannot accept it.

Perhaps because of the incentives for profits from tobacco factories, there was no Christmas at all. Chief executives and commissioners from all over the country had flocked to express their longing for Alan Wilson. The fat chief executives said that as early as when Alan Wilson was still a commissioner of Hyderabad, they felt that this child was not a thing in the pool.

For this compliment, Alan Wilson certainly expressed modesty and also sent a certificate of deposit from Royal Bank of Scotland.

"Dear gentlemen, Sir Edward is satisfied with the performance of the gentlemen in such difficult times. During this period after the war, the gentlemen's determination to stick to their posts is touching. Now the local economic revitalization plan requires everyone to work harder."

Alan Wilson raised his wine glass and congratulated everyone, he also expressed his longing for British India. "I always hope to return to New Delhi and work with everyone, and now I'm finally back."

"Allen, if you can be praised by the cabinet secretary, your future will definitely be unimaginable." After Alan Wilson expressed his longing for British India, the chief executives of various provinces also reciprocate, carrying bank deposit certificates, and said that everyone also hoped that Alan Wilson would come back at all times.

"This time I came back, naturally, based on the care of the British Empire for British India. With goodwill to the many subjects in South Asia, I returned to the place where the dream began." After a drink, Alan Wilson spoke, "We want to build a new India so that all subjects of British India can benefit. Let the pearl of the British Empire shine even more."

Then Alan Wilson expressed his plan to start a wave of construction in British India immediately so that all Indians can feel a bright future?

"Why is this?" said Burke, the Chief Executive of United Province, somewhat puzzled. "What we should do is transfer our wealth to the UK as much as possible, right?"

"That's just one aspect!" Alan Wilson explained with a gentle look, "And it's a very rough approach. In fact, there is a better approach. We have developed a economic revitalization plan. Everyone knows that once it is implemented, the entire India will be strong. But he can't finish it at all! Spend all the funds for British India, and in the plan, we will launch all the huge projects."

"In agriculture, we need to ensure Europe's demand. I think cotton cultivation should be expanded next year. After all, as a labor-intensive industry, the textile industry can solve the employment problems of many local citizens."

Alan Wilson talked freely and explained his glorious ideal of building a great India. Nehru and Gandhi were just happy, all of them were false Indian founding fathers.

The true Indian founding father is also Alan Wilson. If a great India wants to become great again, it must follow his route.

When the wealth accumulated by British India is completely spent, wouldn’t it be nice to have everyone patted their butts and left together?

"I hope all provinces are powered on, and we should build a dam here."

After a brief silence, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became warm. The chief executives of each province began to discuss what projects they were suitable for in the place they managed. There has never been such a time when everyone was so concerned about the development of India.
