Chapter IX Visiting the Military Parade

However, India's self-satisfied expansionist thinking is still a problem. Hindus are the main force to suppress the forces of peace religion, but it cannot make India too strong. It is best to find something for India to do. This does not violate the needs of the whole world.

The original intention of making a contribution.

Now we have to choose the less disgusting one in front of two bastards. This is not a good multiple-choice question, but I believe that the entire British Empire cannot come up with a more suitable solution.

"Dear King, when do you think this war will end?" Alan Wilson changed the topic and asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

This actually confused the monarch of Hyderabad. The war has been going on for many years. Everyone can see that the Allies have the advantage, but who knows when the war will end?

"Dear Maharaja, only strength will gain respect." Alan Wilson said with a reserved gesture, "There are now five million troops of the British Empire fighting on various battlefields. They represent the powerful military power of the British Empire, but war

It will eventually end, but their weapons have been manufactured. The tanks they operate, the planes and warships they drive are an unimaginable military legacy. Instead of letting them rust, it is best to use the residual heat after the war is over.

This will also allow the British Empire to reduce losses."

"What do you mean?" Ali Khan seemed to have grasped something, but his tone was still a little uncertain.

"Dear Maharaja, I want to see the army of Hyderabad as soon as possible." Alan Wilson nodded, confirming Ali Khan's guess that the weapons used by five million soldiers would not be able to boost the army of the princely state.

questionable.

As for the army in Hyderabad, it is clear from the religious beliefs of the rulers that this army must be dominated by the Peace Cult. The most fundamental reason is that Ali Khan, the monarch, is rich and can afford these armaments after the war.

flow direction.

"Can you do it?" As a monarch, Mir Osman Ali Khan looked doubtfully.

"If the war ends earlier, there will be time to do it. If nothing is done, the worst result will happen and we will have to surrender. Now to answer the Maharaja's question, I think it is okay to let some of the armaments flow into Hyderabad.

"Alan Wilson gave an affirmative answer, feeling that once the war is over, it will not be difficult for some of the armaments to be sold.

Alan Wilson knows that among the 5.7 million troops of the British Empire, there are 2.58 million Indian soldiers, accounting for nearly half. This number seems to be a lot. But this is something that all the colonies of the British Empire can afford.

of!

Once India becomes independent, it will be impossible to support more than two million troops with its own financial resources. In fact, in the early days of India's independence, India was not known for its military strength. Of course, it would not be a problem to bully Pakistan.

Moreover, he knows the evolution of the Indian army. The Indian army is mainly composed of veterans, who have generally served for a long time. A large number of Indian soldiers who fought in World War II were still serving in the Indian army even in 1962.

These soldiers in their twenties and thirties in 1945 were also the main force nearly twenty years later. They were taught how to behave in the plateau area. Alan Wilson did not have a high opinion of Indian soldiers. In terms of military strength,

Supplementing the strength of Hyderabad State is also the most effective way.

Ever since he met Mir Osman Ali Khan, Alan Wilson had a goal in mind, which was to gain as much benefit as possible in the process of British India's independence. This would be very important for his future career in the British civil service.

Promotion plays an important role.

The status of British India is extremely important, but it does not belong to the British mainland. In fact, it will be very embarrassing at some level. For example, among the 100,000 civil servants working in British India now, once British India becomes independent, how many of them will be able to continue to support them?

What about the iron rice bowl? No one knows, but Alan Wilson definitely doesn’t want to be among the army of people looking for jobs.

Although the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, the Hyderabad state has all the elements of a country. The entire state is the private property of Mir Osman Ali Khan himself. In order to protect the sanctity of private property, Mir Osman Ali Khan certainly does not care about the entire state.

What are Hindus thinking.

It just so happens that, as a British person, the current Hyderabad Commissioner also does not consider what the residents of the colony think. The fact is very clear that Ali Khan has a lot of money and now wants to maintain the status of Hyderabad's private kingdom. And Alan Wilson sees it

For the sake of money, he decided to help the British Empire's ally for three hundred years.

A few days later, Alan Wilson brought several assistants to the Hyderabad military camp to see if there was anything remarkable about this private army. To be honest, in the eyes of Alan Wilson, who had witnessed the torrent of steel in later generations, this army

The private army of the princely state of Hyderabad is really not enough to look at. Some people have guns and that's all.

The heavy weapon is the Maxim machine gun that was widely used during World War I. The semi-automatic rifle only belonged to Mir Osman Ali Khan's personal guard. The more eye-catching one is the cavalry unit of Hyderabad.

Seeing this scene, Alan Wilson even felt as if he was attending the Indian military parade in person. There were only motorcycles capable of transporting a company. He didn't know what Modi was feeling when he was watching the motorcycle show. Anyway, he

The commissioner was not in a good mood.

"Commissioner, the Lee-Enfield rifles of these Hyderabad soldiers seem to be very old models." Assistant Andy who came with him whispered, "Is Maharaja Ali Khan showing off his force to us?"

"It's not that, it's just a simple display." Alan Wilson said without looking back. What is this? Not to mention that it is 1945, even in the 21st century, Lee Enfield is still going strong.

The rifle, a weapon that was finalized in 1896, is still the main small weapon of the Indian Army.

After the Hyderabad private army's drill ended, Alan Wilson immediately reached out and clapped, with an expression worthy of being an ally of the British Empire for three hundred years, and was very impressed by the lackluster performance of the drill.

With a stylized smirk, Alan Wilson said to Ali Khan's son Abala Khan, "Hyderabad's army is indeed a long-standing ally of the British Empire. To be fair, this army is mainly composed of peaceful believers.

Except that it is inferior in size, it is no worse than the soldiers of the Indian Legion, but if you take into account the current combat quality of the European army, there is still some room for improvement."

Considering that the army of the Hyderabad state will definitely fight the Indian army in the future, he, the Hyderabad commissioner, certainly has nothing bad to say. What if the morale of India's enemy is dampened?
