British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 9: Attend the military parade

However, India's self-expansion thinking is still a problem. The Hindus are the main force to suppress the forces of peace, but India cannot be made too strong. It is best to find something for India to do, which does not violate the world The original intention of making a contribution.

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

"Respected Maharaja, when do you think this war will end." Alan Wilson changed the subject and asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

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

"Respected Maharaja, only strength will be respected." Alan Wilson said with a reserved attitude, "Now there are five million British Empire troops fighting on various battlefields, they represent the powerful military power of the British Empire, but war It will end eventually, but their weapons have been manufactured, the tanks they operate, the planes and warships they drive are an unimaginable military legacy, and instead of rusting, it is better to use the residual heat after the war is over. This will also reduce the losses of the British Empire."

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

"Respected Maharaja, I want to see the army of Hyderabad as soon as possible." Alan Wilson nodded, affirming Ali Khan's guess, the weapons used by five million soldiers, it is still impossible to boost the army of the native country. questionable.

As for the army of Hyderabad, the religious beliefs of the rulers are clearly defined. You don’t need to think about it to know that this army must be dominated by the religion of peace. The most fundamental reason is that the monarch Ali Khan is rich and can afford these armaments after the war. flow.

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

"If the war ended earlier, there would be a time to do it. If nothing is done, the worst result will be captured. Now to answer the question of the Maharaja, let some of the armaments flow into Hyderabad, I think it can be done. "Alan Wilson gave an affirmative answer, feeling that once the war was over, it would not be difficult for some of the armaments to be sold.

Alan Wilson knows that out of the 5.7 million army of the British Empire, there are 2.58 million Indian soldiers, accounting for nearly half, which seems to be a lot. But this is what all the colonies of the British Empire can afford!

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

Moreover, he knows the evolution of the Indian army. The Indian army is mainly veterans, and the service years are generally very long. Even in 1962, a large number of Indian soldiers who fought in World War II served in the Indian army.

In 1945, these soldiers in their twenties and thirties were the main force nearly twenty years later. Being ruthlessly taught to be a man in the plateau area, Alan Wilson did not think highly of the Indian soldiers. It was also the most effective way to supplement the strength of Hyderabad in terms of military strength.

Since meeting with Mir Osman Ali Khan, Alan Wilson has a goal in mind, that is, in the process of British India's independence, he must reap the benefits as much as possible, which will be beneficial to 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 to some extent. For example, the 100,000 civil servants currently working in British India, once British India becomes independent, how many will continue to hold iron rice bowls? No one knows that Alan Wilson definitely doesn't want to have himself in the army looking for a job.

Although the sparrow is small and complete, the state of Hyderabad 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, of course Mir Osman Ali Khan will not care about the entire state. What are Hindus thinking.

It just so happens that, as an Englishman, the current Commissioner of Hyderabad also does not consider what the colonists think. The facts are very clear, Ali Khan has money and now wants to maintain the status of a private kingdom in Hyderabad. And Alan Wilson, for the sake of money, decided to help the ally of the British Empire for three hundred years.

A few days later, Alan Wilson brought a few 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 seen the steel torrent of later generations, this army The private army in Hyderabad is really not enough to see, and that's all there is to someone with a gun.

The heavy weapon is the Maxim machine gun that was widely used during the First World War. The semi-automatic rifle only belongs to the personal guard of Mir Osman Ali Khan himself. The most eye-catching is the cavalry unit in Hyderabad.

Seeing this scene, Alan Wilson even had the feeling that he was going to the Indian military parade in person. The commissioner is in a bad mood.

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

"That's not it, it's just a simple display." Alan Wilson said without looking back, what is this? Let alone 1945, even in the 21st century, the old-fashioned Lee-Enfield rifle, a weapon that was finalized in 1896, is still the main light weapon of the Indian Army.

After the performance of the private army in Hyderabad, Alan Wilson immediately extended his hands and applauded, with an expression worthy of being an ally of the British Empire for 300 years, and was very impressed by the performance without any dazzling performances.

With a stylized smirk, Alan Wilson said to Ali Khan's son Abala Khan, "The army of Hyderabad is worthy of being a long-time ally of the British Empire. In all fairness, this army is mainly composed of pacifists. In addition to being inferior in size, it is no worse than the soldiers of the Indian Legion, but if you consider the current combat literacy of the European army, there are still some areas for improvement."

Considering that the army of the native state of Hyderabad will definitely fight the Indian army once in the future, of course he, the Hyderabad commissioner, has nothing bad to say. What if the morale of this Indian enemy is dampened?
