If it were anyone else, they might think that India's clamor for independence would have a negative impact on Tang Cheng's control of Myanmar. But Tang Cheng is not an ordinary person. Instead, he feels that this is an opportunity for himself. According to Tang Cheng's understanding of the British
, these arrogant British guys will never give up the colony of India easily. Even if the British are forced to agree to India's independence due to the current situation, they will never be slapped in the face by the Indians. Fortunately
Get along well with each other.
Myanmar and India border, and Tang Cheng feels that since Pakistan can be separated from India, he may also be able to seize a piece of territory from the border area. However, Tang Cheng also knows that all this depends on the attitude of the British. If
If Tang Cheng sends troops without the approval of the British, he will be accused of provoking trouble. Seeing the warships carrying many British troops leaving the port, Tang Cheng immediately sent a telegram to Thomas. In this telegram,
Tang Cheng only expressed one idea. As the Governor of Myanmar, he was willing to go through fire and water for Her Majesty the Queen.
Thomas, who was far away in London, immediately laughed out loud after reading the telegram sent by Tang Cheng. As an old fox, how could he not understand what Tang Cheng was planning. If it was a year ago, Thomas would definitely understand.
Go to the royal family immediately and sue Tangcheng severely. But now India is clamoring for independence. Even a year ago, they had planned a mutiny and uprising. The various actions of the Indians are undoubtedly ruthless.
Having severely humiliated the British government and royal family, a group of nobles led by Thomas often suggested that the Indians should be dealt with.
After laughing, Thomas gradually calmed down. He even found a map. After checking it carefully, he realized that the purpose of Tang City was actually interesting. Thomas later went to Buckingham Palace and took Tang Dynasty with him.
As soon as he saw the Queen of England, Thomas informed the Queen of Tang City’s plans in detail. “Our little friend is restless. If Mountbatten doesn’t act well,
If everything goes well, I think we can let our Governor of Burma put a little pressure on the Indians."
Thomas used his fingers to point out several locations for the queen on the map brought by the attendant. With Thomas's more intuitive guidance and suggestions, the queen quickly understood Thomas's intention, which was to take advantage of Myanmar's geographical location.
, echoing Mountbatten and others, oppressing the Indians both militarily and politically. However, the Queen is not very confident about Tangcheng, the governor of Myanmar. After all, there are many high-level British troops stationed in Myanmar.
Reporting on the situation in Myanmar, according to their report, Myanmar is a land of poor mountains and harsh waters.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, our Governor of Myanmar is not as harmless as he appears. As far as I know, the armed forces in northern Myanmar are close to ten thousand people, all of whom have undergone six months of military training. And they
There are many armed forces in Thailand. Although the number is uncertain, most of these armed forces are retired soldiers and low-level officers from European countries. Except that they do not have heavy weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness is not weaker than that of the Indian army.
Thomas smiled and explained that the situations he just mentioned were actually told to him by Tang Cheng.
With Thomas's guarantee, the Queen quickly agreed to his suggestion. Two hours later, Thomas's suggestion was approved by the Congress and high-level government officials. In the evening, Tangcheng, who had been waiting all day, finally arrived.
received good news. Not only did the British government agree to Thomas's suggestion, but after discussion in Congress, the British government gave Tangcheng the opportunity to purchase a batch of British fighter jets at a low price. Although British fighter jets are not the best in Europe, they are
Asia has the best fighter jets.
This unexpected surprise made Tang Cheng very happy. He immediately replied to Thomas and directly used the part of the treasure that the royal family should allocate to him to offset the purchase price of the fighter plane. Of course, Tang Cheng himself also knew that the British sold them at low prices.
The fighter plane given to him is likely to be an old aircraft retired by the British Flying Force. But even so, Tang Cheng is ecstatic. As long as the plane can take to the sky, those preliminary pilots in the northern Myanmar flight school will have actual combat capabilities.
Opportunities for practice.
With the good news, Tang Cheng immediately went to the Bureau and informed the Bureau that Mountbatten had become the new Governor-General of India. At the same time, Tang Cheng also informed the Bureau of his plans and the attitude of the British government.
He gave the bureau seat. "This is an opportunity for us!" The joy in Tang Cheng's heart was all reflected on his face. Facing the bureau seat, Tang Cheng made no secret of his thoughts on Myanmar's westward expansion. "I have accurate information.
, the Dongba region next to Myanmar not only has large coal reserves, but also massive natural gas reserves."
“Our current environment belongs to the subtropical region, and coal is mainly used in industry.
But we have built a large number of hydropower stations now, and we have no shortage of electricity. But Europe needs coal! Whether it is used for power generation or heating in winter, Europe cannot do without coal. Natural gas can be used to protect people’s daily life.
It can be used for consumption, cooking, and power generation, and it is a pollution-free, pure natural energy. The most important thing is that only the area close to us in the Dongba region has hilly landforms, and the rest are plain areas suitable for food cultivation."
"If we send troops to East Pakistan, as long as we control the hilly areas close to the border, once the Indians want to counterattack, we, who are condescending, can just rush down and follow the plain terrain below to reach the central region of India.
.I heard that Mountbatten will follow the wishes of the British government this time to divide the West Pakistan region and form a separate country from the Indian territory. Do you think that if we form an alliance with West Pakistan and start fighting in both the east and west directions at the same time, can we separate the West Pakistan region from the Indian territory and form a separate country?
India split horizontally into two?”
Tang Cheng's last words made the bureau chief realize that Tang Cheng didn't seem to be joking with him. This guy was seriously preparing to send troops to India! The bureau chief who realized that Tang Cheng was not joking finally calmed down and began to think about Tang Cheng's plan.
Plan. The two of them looked at the large map spread out on the table without speaking for a long time. It was not until the sky turned completely dark that the two of them in Tangcheng finally felt that their shoulders were sore and their spirits were exhausted. For such a big matter, the bureau chief did not dare to make a rash decision, so
It is suggested that Tangcheng summon Zhang Jianghe and others to discuss the matter.
Two days later, in the conference room of Yangon Military Camp, Tang Cheng looked around at the people who came to attend the meeting. Except for Hans who was still busy in Europe, whether it was Zhang Jianghe or the German officers who came from Thailand, the conference room
The place was packed. "The British government has appointed Mountbatten as the Governor-General of India. However, Mountbatten is very unlucky. He became the Governor-General of India because the Indians were fighting for independence. In other words, as the Governor-General of India, he is for
Solution to Indian Independence.”
"According to the information revealed by insiders, the British still played the trick of differentiation this time. They were planning to separate West Pakistan from the Indian territory, and then separated hundreds of local kings within India. The British knew that India was independent
It’s a foregone conclusion, so they are trying to control the forces of the separated kings to further weaken India’s power. However, I think the Indians may not be fooled, and they may also use the tactics of last year’s mutiny to force the British.”
<
br> "Three days ago, all the British troops stationed in Burma, except for the logistics department, went to India. London needs them to provide protection for Mountbatten. I believe everyone should be as surprised as me that there are other British troops in India.
Station, can't they protect Mountbatten? We don't know the specific situation yet, but I have received a telegram from London. London wants us to be ready to send troops at any time, and we may need to cross the border to put pressure on India.
.”
There was already a map hanging on the blackboard behind Tang Cheng, on which Tang Cheng drew several arrows with a red pencil. Everyone in the conference room knew that these arrows were the direction in which Tang Cheng was preparing to send troops. "Myanmar"
There are already more than 70 modified armored vehicles and 20 American medium tanks in the north. Two days ago, I had arranged for the scouts to set out first to find a suitable marching route for the heavy troops." Standing in front of the blackboard, Tangcheng
His expression looked very solemn.
"According to my estimation, the conditions proposed by Mountbatten are definitely not as simple as dividing West Pakistan. The British are accustomed to asking for exorbitant prices. They must have prepared more than one set of plans. It has always been known that the British troops passing from our side are not for
The purpose of protecting Mountbatten is to prevent the Indians from jumping over the wall. Therefore, I judge that the British are very likely to use us. After all, Myanmar, like India, is also a British Commonwealth colony, and sending troops to India will not have a greater impact."
There was only Tang Cheng's voice in the conference room. No one who participated in the meeting made a sound. Everyone just looked at Tang Cheng quietly. "There is a high probability that the British will use us to send troops to force the Indians to choose the plan they proposed. However,
I don’t want to do anything that harms others and does not benefit myself, so once we send troops to the Dongba area, I will not withdraw our troops back." As he spoke, Tangcheng stood in front of the blackboard, turned around and drew a circle on the map.
"This is the Dongba area. The Dongba people have always been dissatisfied with the control of the Indians. As long as someone guides them, they will definitely choose to leave India. The area of Dongba is not very large, but the area close to our border is hilly. Other Dongba
The area is covered with plain terrain, which is very suitable for food cultivation. If we occupy this area, not only will we have an additional food-producing area, but we will also occupy a favorable terrain, and we will not have to worry about raids by the Indian army. The most important thing is that the Badong area has a large amount of coal and
There are natural gas reserves, and there is probably a lot of oil here that has not yet been explored."
