If there was even the slightest chance, Gil would not want to fire. As a colonial officer, he certainly had a basic understanding of the overall situation. After the First World War, Great Britain had actually declined, but the British themselves did not want to admit it or were still fighting to the death.
That’s it. The rise of the empire on which the sun never sets relied on colonizing the world. However, the British colonial policy was wrong from beginning to end. The basis of British imperial rule, the noble gentlemen in the House of Lords and the Lower House, never thought of
The colonies were regarded as British territories, and they never thought of turning the colonial people into British people. Their short-sighted behavior that only focused on interests (such as only organizing poor people and prisoners to go to North America and Australia) made it impossible for them to live in those colonies.
A top-down foundation for rule was established. Therefore, after the colonial people acquired national and national consciousness, the colonial system of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets immediately experienced an avalanche effect.
At that time and space, the British were ready to give up India (the independence of India and even many colonies around the world was largely due to the Americans. The United States' strong industrial production capacity required a broader market, which coincided with the rise of the Second World War.
, the United States has an increasing say in international affairs, and the British colonies have naturally become the object of Americans' spying). But in this time and space, because of the rise of China, because the United States needs the British ally to stand on the same position
To counter China and due to the war, Americans did not have the energy to focus on developing the global market. Therefore, the British were able to continue to maintain colonial rule in India and hoped to use India's massive population and resources to compete with China.
The reason why Gill ordered the firing was because his troops did not have the upper hand in the exchange of fire with the Indian "thugs". As the sound of gunfire from the direction of the Governor's Palace became more and more intensive, and worried that the Governor's Palace would be damaged, Gill could only
Can grit his teeth and decide to resolutely suppress the Indian "mob".
The cannon was fired, and as Gill expected, the Indian "thugs" collapsed immediately. However, only half an hour passed, and before he could be happy, a piece of bad news came. The Indian sailors in Bombay revolted.
The Bombay Sailors' Uprising has nothing to do with Gu Lianyun. In fact, historically, this uprising should have occurred in 1946. But in this time and space, because of Ouyang Yun, the time of this uprising was obviously delayed. As for
The reason why this point was precisely hit is because when the news of demonstrations in New Delhi was broadcast to the whole of India by the Congress Party, the Bombay Sailor Resistance Organization felt that this was the best time to take action, so they immediately decided to take action.
In London, England, British Prime Minister Mr. Churchill has been extremely busy during this period. The New Delhi meeting is a weathervane. If before this, most European countries were relatively reserved on anti-China issues and want to see it again, now, in the United States, Britain, the Soviet Union, and Japan
With the anti-China alliance formed, all European heads of state (except for Ambrose, who is optimistic about China out of political needs, of course) believe that the time has come to make a bet. Well, of course the vast majority of European countries do not want to be attacked by the Germans
After being severely damaged, they would suffer the trauma of another war. However, if it is a war that must be won, and the victory of this war represents a huge amount of interests, they will certainly not refuse.
"Facts have proven that the current Chinese government is reactionary and Nazi-style, and as the birthplace of modern civilization in the human world, Europe certainly has an obligation to help the Chinese people overthrow the tyrannical warlord government sitting on their heads!" New Delhi and Mumbai
When the fierce fighting was going on, Churchill was talking eloquently to the ambassadors of several European countries to the United Kingdom: "We have no intention of organizing another Eight-Nation Allied Forces to fight another Opium War. However, after Germany and Japan have actually been defeated, as the representative of the world
As the backbone of the civilized world, shouldn’t we bring peace to Asia? The remnants of the Second World War are still lingering. I think all the ambassadors are deeply touched by the harm of militarism to human civilization, right? The reactionary Chinese Ouyang Yun
The warlord government is the representative of the remaining militaristic countries. Dear ambassadors, for the sake of world peace and the peaceful development of mankind, we have the ability and obligation to eradicate this last cancer of militarism in Asia and even the world..."
There are many reasons why Churchill seems to be so important during this period. One of them is that after discussion by the British House of Lords and Commons, in view of the unstable situation in the world today, it is necessary for the British government to continue to maintain the wartime system. Who can take charge of the British government at the moment?
The prime minister of the wartime cabinet? Naturally, it must be Churchill, who performed outstandingly in World War II and led the British people to defeat the German Nazis. You know, just before this, in the UK, there were many calls for the government to dissolve the wartime cabinet, and there were many calls for Churchill to step down.
High.
Because of its poor performance in World War II, Britain has completely declined. Even though Churchill was unwilling to accept this, he could only hold his nose and admit it. But now, as the Western world realizes that China is a potential threat to world peace, Churchill
He believed that if Great Britain wanted to continue to maintain the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets, this would be their only chance. Therefore, when the Americans, Japanese and Soviet Russia were actually at war with China, he still stayed in London.
, working hard to form a European coalition.
By forming a European coalition in the name of anti-China, Britain can actually occupy the position of European leader. Even if it cannot ultimately win the war against China, because of the existence of the Chinese threat, Europe will definitely be able to continue to be the big brother of Europe.
- With this thought in his mind, the smile on Churchill's face grew thicker.
While he was thinking about it, Aiden walked in from outside. The British gentleman didn't care about etiquette at this time. He just nodded slightly to the ambassadors, then walked quickly behind Churchill and whispered in his ear.
: "Your Excellency, a telegram has just been sent from India. Riots have broken out in New Delhi and Bombay. The situation is very bad!"
The reason why Britain can be called the Empire on which the sun never sets is because it colonized India. If it loses India, what will Britain have left? You must know that Britain at this time was not during World War I. At that time, Britain at least still controlled
Myanmar controls Australia, but now, Myanmar has long been de facto independent, and Australia has become the basis of the Americans. And the island of Great Britain alone is not as big as a province in China, so it can be called
The empire? Even though he had long developed a calm demeanor, Churchill's face turned pale all of a sudden. He even forgot that there were many outsiders sitting across from him and asked loudly: "What? What's going on?"
