British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 312: Those who play with fire must set themse

At least Gandhi has already expressed his determination to solve the problem, and like Ali Jinnah, although the way of speaking has more obvious British influence, he is very stubborn and doesn't care about anything except Pakistan's independence.

Sometimes it's really unbelievable. Although Gandhi's dress is out of tune with modern society, he is more reasonable.

The idea of ​​ceding the power and letting the Muslim League lead India shocked Governor Mountbatten, but then Mountbatten calmed down. "So, on what grounds do you think your party would accept this proposal?" Mountbatten tentatively asked. asked.

"Because the Congress Party first wants to avoid partition and prevent the partition plan from succeeding at any cost." Gandhi said slowly.

Mountbatten pondered for a while, and asked Ali Jinnah. "So how will Jinnah react to this?"

"If you tell him that this plan was proposed by Gandhi, Jinnah will tell you, this scheming Gandhi!"

"It seems that Mr. Gandhi knows your opponents quite well." Governor Mountbatten sighed slightly. He had already met Ali Jinnah and was deeply impressed by the firmness of the leaders of the Muslim League.

Mountbatten, who has always been considered a quick thinker, was also confused at this time. Ismay, Secretary General of the Governor's Office, whispered in his ear to remind him that Gandhi's proposal was too suspicious, and there might be a lot of articles in it, so be careful not to get into his trap.

Mountbatten did not see it that way. He just thought that Gandhi's suggestion was an unrealistic fantasy, even a risky fantasy. But he never let go of any solution to the problem, what if it worked, wouldn't the matter be solved?

Gandhi jumped up from the sofa and vowed, "I speak from the bottom of my heart. If you agree with this decision, I intend to travel all over India to persuade the people to accept this plan."

A few hours later, when Gandhi left to meet the waiting reporter for an interview, his face was red, he was excited, his heart was happy, and he was overjoyed. "I think I have avoided a danger," he told reporters mysteriously.

"Is this Gandhi's proposal? I was really confused before. Although he has been a saint for so long, he is still a politician in the final analysis. This is to put Ali Jinnah on the fire."

Alan Wilson had come to visit Pamela Mountbatten the next day to go around Derry and take a break.

The details of the conversation between the Governor and Gandhi were not known until the Governor's Palace. Immediately he concluded that this source that once made Ali Jinnah make up his mind to make the peace believers independent is not as simple as it seems.

"Where did this come from?" Pamela Mountbatten knew that her father, the current Governor of British India, was anxious to resolve the matter here, but she had also met Gandhi, and it was hard to believe such a penniless old man , what an amazing plan.

"Not everyone in this world likes money, and some people like power, but Gandhi belongs to the minority and likes names. So his image can confuse a lot of people."

Alan Wilson started his analysis of Pamela's influence from Gandhi, and then went straight to the point, "Twenty years ago, Ali Jinnah left the Congress Party and took over the Muslim League. I don't say who has more responsibility. But the Congress Party is certainly not without responsibility. You must know that Ali Jinnah was very contemptuous of the call for the independence and establishment of the Muslim League, and even argued with the leader of the Muslim League, Aga Khan. Ali Jinnah used to call for unity, He's not as stubborn as he is now."

Speaking of the historical origin first, Pamela Mountbatten still didn't understand, and frowned, "But Gandhi seems to be very sincere."

"Short-term sincerity, once the goal is achieved, the Muslim League will not be able to become independent." Alan Wilson reminded, "First of all, after independence, India will have to hold elections, unless Ali Jinnah can restore the Mughal Empire, or establish a The military government. Otherwise, when the election comes, who do you think will win the Congress Party or the Muslim League? There are 400 million people in the subcontinent, 90 million peaceful believers, and Hindus can even give up women, and they can eat the Muslim League as well.”

"Unlike the Congress Party, Mr. Jinnah is a unique leader for the Muslim League. At least for now, there is no other person in the Muslim League who has the prestige to fight against the Congress Party. Jinnah is in his seventies, and he is only Just a few years younger than Gandhi. Jinnah and Gandhi are technically contemporaries, and Nehru is the second-generation leader of the Congress party."

As for Patel, the conservative leader of the Congress Party, he is a year older than Jinnah, and with Gandhi, the three of them are a generation, and Nehru is a dozen years younger than all three.

"In other words, if the Muslim League agrees with Gandhi's proposal, four years after we leave, once the elections begin, the Muslim League will be ousted again, and the entire British India will return to Congress."

"Well, it's very sensible! It's good word of mouth." Alan Wilson looked at Pamela Mountbatten's red lips.

"Go to..." Pamela Mountbatten pushed Alan Wilson twice, and at a glance he knew that the man wanted to take advantage again, "Aren't you talking about serious business, you are always serious."

"Okay, let's get down to business. Once we and the British troops in India leave, the Congress Party can wait until the election or take action directly, it depends on their mood. After the election, if the Muslim League resists, it will start with the Muslim League undermining democracy. It is also advantageous to clean up directly with Hindus." Alan Wilson explained, "So I said that Gandhi's hand was very clever."

"Ali Jinnah can disagree." Pamela Mountbatten thought and said, "What's the problem."

"A series of consequences caused by the partition of India and Pakistan, as well as the possible bloodshed, Ali Jinnah is the culprit." Alan Wilson Shi Shiran said, "The responsibility lies with the Muslim League, the Congress Party is the victim, and the You can pretend to be tolerant and build up the image of India after independence. The Congress party has the least responsibility, and Ali Jinnah has the greatest responsibility. As the governor, your father will not be less blamed."

In the final analysis, the current British India, the Muslim League, the Congress Party and the United Kingdom are all shifting their responsibilities.

Governor Mountbatten was also thinking about the plan with the least responsibility. He hoped that the result of the independence of British India would not affect his career, so he was interested in Gandhi's suggestion.

Gandhi's suggestion can try to swallow the Muslim League, plot the whole of British India, and put it under the leadership of the Congress Party. If Ali Jinnah does not agree, you can shirk the responsibility and say that the responsibility for the India-Pakistan split is that of the pacifists. opinionated.

Ali Jinnah would definitely not agree, and the reputation of later generations Ali Jinnah was indeed not as good as Gandhi's.

"Gandhi really thought that his influence and prestige could do everything. This is a subcontinent with a strong religious atmosphere." Alan Wilson already had a way and decided to reveal the matter to Ali Jinnah.

In the telegram, Alan Wilson hoped that Ali Jinnah and Mu Meng would not act rashly, as this was only a private conversation. And you have a solution yourself.

He remembered that Gandhi was killed because of the assassination of extreme Hindus in history. The main crime was that Gandhi was too tolerant of peaceful believers?

It seems that history must be brought back to the original track. Whether streptomycin can cure Ali Jinnah's advanced tuberculosis, considering Ali Jinnah's age and habits, is actually a very small probability.

Once Jinnah fell and the Mu League lost its backbone, it was no match for the Congress Party at all. Alan Wilson didn't want to toss himself, but India didn't split?

A divided India dares to be rude to its former suzerain after decades. Is it still good to retain the complete India?

Although he received a lot of money in New Delhi, it is not a matter of money or not. There is still such a thing as patriotism in this world.

This time, Alan Wilson took the initiative to come to the door, with the halo of an old friend of Pakistan, and informed Gandhi of his thoughts, "If you agree, the dream of independence will be in vain. If you object, you are the most responsible for the partition of India and Pakistan. . So it's best not to take a stand for now, just wait and see."

"I have already said that Gandhi is full of intrigues, but he is too good at managing his image. He is almost impeccable~lightnovelpub.net~ Ali Jinnah commented on Gandhi expressionlessly, looking quite indifferent.

Ali Jinnah has a long-term experience working with Gandhi. Is his understanding of Gandhi correct? He doesn't need Alan Wilson, an Englishman, to intervene, but just said, "But he has indeed been willing to be poor for decades and has managed his own image of a saint, isn't he? Such talents are difficult to deal with, and moral kidnapping is terrible."

"Moral kidnapping can kidnap others and put yourself in a dangerous situation." Alan Wilson said this without saying anything.

Ali Jinnah opened his mouth and said, "What are you thinking?"

"I was thinking about what would happen to a saint who betrayed Hinduism." Alan Wilson raised his head and said, "The subcontinent is full of illiterate people. What moral kidnappings do they understand, and what political tactics can they see? What is in their minds except Shiva? What if someone who doesn't have one knows their leader and wants to hand over state power to someone from a rival sect?"

"Maybe he will die." Alan Wilson laughed out loud, "I will release the news at the right time, and Mu Meng will not know anything. Let's see if the saint can resist the dissatisfaction of Shiva believers. ."

Ali Jinnah listened to Alan Wilson's dispassionate words, a look of struggle flashed across his face, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"The Governor is afraid of shouldering the responsibility for India's independence, and it is inevitable to look ahead and look back. I hope that this matter can be improved after the Churchill Congressman arrives in India." Alan Wilson pleaded, "If you don't mind, I hope that when the Churchill Congressman arrives, the matter will be changed. Mr Na was able to come forward publicly to welcome it."

"No problem, I am very willing." Ali Jinnah nodded and agreed, "On the premise of maintaining Pakistan's independence."

"Of course, this is our common purpose." Alan Wilson cheered loudly.
