Once the Hyderabad state and the Junagadh state form an alliance in some sense, many powerful state states can join in. No matter what the Congress Party and the Muslim League think, the worst outcome is anyway.
Just like history, there is no way to stop the rolling wheel, but as long as India can disintegrate the princely states in a few years, he feels that he is worthy of Ali Khan, and can return to Britain confidently and with a clear conscience.
Soon, news about the communication between Sir Barron and the Congress Party and the Muslim League came. Nehru himself came to the Governor's House, but Ali Jinnah, the leader of the Muslim League, did not come.
However, the representatives of the Muslim League brought Ali Jinnah’s opinions. The Muslim League stated that as long as the Governor General’s Office made clear the plan for the partition of India and Pakistan, it could provide support in the subsequent war. And Nehru, Chairman of the Congress Party, was also willing
To cooperate with the interests of the British Empire in this matter.
The statements of the National Congress Party and the Muslim League made the Governor-General breathe a sigh of relief. British India was stable and they could continue to support the war to regain Burma. Senior officials and commissioners in each province were also happy to see this.
Rather than supporting the war, the Congress Party and the Muslim League are now more concerned about the upcoming Central Legislative Council elections. Otherwise, democracy is really a good thing. The more chaotic it is, the more it can play a buffering role and be used for bargaining.
.
"It is really unexpected that the Congress Party and the Muslim League can express their support so quickly." John said with emotion. In his impression, this kind of cooperation had long since disappeared. Before he came to British India
, but I heard that more than 20 years ago, the relationship between the Congress Party and the Muslim League was not bad.
"Nehru and Ali Jinnah are not ordinary people. In fact, we can vaguely feel that the Governor's House is slightly biased towards the Muslim League." Alan Wilson only spoke briefly and did not follow the topic in depth.
Although Nehru only visited the Soviet Union once and could only be regarded as a passing visitor, judging from India's operations after independence, Nehru was really influenced by the Soviet Union, and many of its policies were variations of the Soviet Union.
As for Ali Jinnah, he was a leader who was completely close to the West. In terms of belief, both of them were heretics in their own beliefs. Who would have thought that Nehru, a Hindu intellectual, had such hatred for the Soviet Union, which shouted for equality?
Extraordinarily favorable impression? It even affected India for decades.
Ali Jinnah was a Shia of the Peace Sect, which was completely a minority in the Peace Sect world, and also within British India. For him to be the leader of the Muslim League was almost like cheating.
From these two people, Alan Wilson suddenly discovered that history really needs to rely on heresy to advance? Compared with the Roman Catholic Church in the Middle Ages, the Anglican Church in England was undoubtedly a heresy, but it was the first to start the Industrial Revolution.
The British attitude towards the Muslim League and the Congress Party is definitely to support the Muslim League a little to prevent the Congress Party from becoming a dominant party. From the perspective of the entire Eurasian continent, independent India has certainly blocked the connection with the world of peace religions.
.
But the British did not want India to become uncontrollable, so they used the Muslim League and later Pakistan to contain India. Alan Wilson remembers that at the beginning of the partition of India and Pakistan, Pakistan appeared in the name of the Dominion of Pakistan until the 1950s.
The official founding of the country.
At present, it is not the turn of the two princely state commissioners to worry about the two major local forces in British India. The most important thing for them is to make money. After Alan Wilson talked about it, John was very interested in the matter of the princely state alliance.
No one can say whether British India will exist in the future or how long it will exist. We should prepare early.
"The two Maharajas are both peaceful believers. They really should move around. After I go back, I can arrange for the two Maharajas to meet. I will also go to Hyderabad by then." John said with a thoughtful look, "
With both of us present, the communication may be smoother."
"We are the commissioners of the princely state, and it is not a bad thing to consider the interests of the princely monarch in any case." Alan Wilson spread his hands, as if he was determined to kill the thieves and said, "Only by maintaining the influence of the British Empire can we maintain the influence of the British Empire."
That’s why we do it.”
Cha! John took out a match, struck it, lit a cigarette for himself and said intoxicatedly, "That's right, that's what I want to say. We should also return to our respective countries. No matter what we do, it takes time.
.”
"I agree, let's go and say goodbye to Sir Barron." Alan Wilson thought for a while and felt that there was no point in taking it with him in New Delhi. Anyone he met would be more senior than him, so he might as well go back to Hyderabad and become a British gentleman.
I don’t know whether it was the British civil servant who was more hard-core, or the prince’s personal adviser who was more colorful. They arrived at Sir Barron’s office all the way. It was a complete mess. When they opened the door and were about to speak, Barron was holding the microphone.
Sir Lun frowned and said, "He's not here, how about that?"
He looked up and saw two people coming in. He sorted out the documents and said, "My personal secretary is away for something. Can Allen help me deliver this document to the commander-in-chief?"
"Well, I'm willing to serve." Alan Wilson, who was about to say goodbye, could only reluctantly agree. The commander-in-chief Sir Barron mentioned was the current commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian Theater, the famous Mountbatten.
When it comes to Mountbatten, we have to talk about the aura that surrounds him. Mountbatten’s great-grandfather was Dewig II of Hesse-Rhineland, and his grandfather was Prince Alexander Battenberg. His maternal great-grandfather was Ludwig II.
His son, Prince Carl, his maternal grandfather was the cousin of Prince Alexander Battenberg, Grand Duke Ludwig III of Hesse-Rhine, and his maternal grandmother was Princess Alice, the second daughter of Queen Victoria.
Mountbatten had relatives in the British, Danish, Greek, Russian, German, Belgian, Bulgarian, Yugoslavian, Romanian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Hesse-Rhine, Mecklenburg and other German princely royal families.
In addition, as a direct descendant of Queen Victoria, Louis Mountbatten was one of the presumptive heirs to the British throne when he was born. His succession was preceded by Edward VII's youngest daughter, Princess Maude, who later became Queen of Norway and Kaiser Wilhelm II.
after Queen Victoria's three younger daughters and their descendants.
Now Mountbatten came to India two years ago and took office as the commander of the Southeast Asia Theater. However, as far as the news from the theater headquarters is concerned, basically there is not much in the battle plan that requires the commander-in-chief to worry about. Compared with the continuous operation,
Among them, the Indian Colonial Department and the Governor-General's Palace, Mountbatten were very quiet.
