The sound of horses' hooves and wheels stirred the gloomy and lonely air of dusk. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Thomas. Balin looked up from the pile of papers on his desk and looked out the window at the low sunset. Another busy and frustrating day is coming to an end. The viceroy and vice-king of the British Empire in India came from the illustrious Bahraini family and was the first Baron of Northbrook, George Brown. The son of Bahrain, who was elected to the House of Commons in 1857 and entered politics with the support of his family, he became Viceroy and Vice-King of India within 15 years, and ruled the most important colonies of the British Empire, including not only India, but also Burma and the Straits Settlements. He was the most prominent, powerful and oily position under the cabinet ministers of the British Empire. His predecessor, Robert. Churchill had amassed millions of pounds in this position.

But George. Bahrain did not have Robert. Churchill was so lucky, less than two years after he became the governor of India, the French and Roman Emperor Napoleon III dominated Bintian, and let the Mexican Empress Mathilde, who was pro-China and went to Zhu Jishi's bed, be the regent of the entire French Empire, and immediately smashed the world power system of China, Britain and France, which could barely be maintained. And India, the fat meat in the mouth of the Ming Empire, will never have a stable day anymore.

Outside China, millions of armed to the teeth, could storm India at any moment, at least to the banker-born governor, at the news of the Battle of the Missouri-Kansas City in North America? One? Root? Read? Novel M.Ybdu.. After the news came, the governor surnamed Bahrain was terrified all the time - Jujuan defeated 1.8 million American troops with about 1.2 million Chinese troops! And all the armies under the Viceroy of India, including the garbage troops of the Federation of Indochina, do not reach 700,000, but their opponents are at least 70 million Chinese bayonets! Count your fingers and know that you can't win!

And it's not just the Viceroy of India who can count. The princely princes and ministers of all India were "mathematicians". We all know that 70 million is more than 700,000. Therefore, they unanimously looked down on the rule of the British Empire. Everyone is planning to betray British rule, and the door of Zhu Jishi's Indian mistress, Queen Bay, is now crowded at the door of her villa in Kolkata, and it is crowded with Indian tyrants who go to give gifts every day, but the front of the Indian Governor's Mansion is empty, and there is no gift-giving! Moreover, from the beginning of 1875, the princely states refused to serve in the military on various grounds for non-payment of taxes. Also try to recall the princely soldiers who served in the Anglo-Indian army! It was clear that he wanted to part ways with the British Empire. Moreover, there is intelligence that the Indian Confederation Congress, which accepts Chinese support, has colluded with many princely state lords in India and is planning an armed rebellion to cooperate with the Chinese invasion!

These ungrateful Indians have completely forgotten who gave them a united, prosperous and developing Indian empire, and without the protection of the British Empire, hundreds of disintegrating Indian princely states would have been conquered by the bayonets of the Chinese, and these princes would have long become slaves of the Chinese emperor! Now these princes of the princely states who do not know how to be grateful still expect independence and freedom from the Chinese, and do not look at how the Chinese have gradually turned the small surrounding countries into part of their Wuhua Zhuxia in the past twenty or thirty years!

"Mr. Governor-General, Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army, Will. Admiral Hemming arrived. The secretary's voice pulled the Governor of Bahrain out of his thoughts.

The Indian Army is the official name of the British Indian Army, which is a mixture of Indians native India and British-born Britons who were sent to serve in India. The total number of troops now is as high as 600,000 (700,000 with the armies of Burma and Annam.) If one takes into account that there are even more princely states), together with the Royal Navy's Eastern Fleet, which had just been formed by the merger of the Indian fleet, the Far Eastern Fleet and the Australian fleet. They constituted the two pillars of the British Empire's armed forces in the East. However, considering the number of enemies they faced, these two pillars were a bit more detailed. So the selection of a good commander-in-chief for these two armed forces became the only remedy. The commander of the Eastern Fleet chose Arthur, who came from a naval family. Admiral Hood, and the candidate for the commander of the Indian Army was difficult for a long time, and finally selected Zhu Jishi's old friend in his early years, who was also the first chief of staff of the Ming Royal Army. Hamming. Because in the eyes of the big names in London, Will. Hemming must have been the one who knew the Ming and the Ming Royal Army best in the entire British Empire.

When the Governor of Bahrain got up from behind his desk, the visitor had already entered the door under the guidance of the secretary. It's not just Will who came. Hemming, and a man named Charlie. Gordon's lieutenant general.

"Mr. Governor!" Dressed in a vigorous general's uniform and neatly trimmed beard, Hemming laughed loudly, "You're thin, so pale!" What's going on? Sick? ”

"It's all worrying, the Chinese have 70 million bayonets, and we only have 700,000, 80% of whom are unreliable Indians, Burmese, Annamite and Malays." The Governor General of India shook hands with Admiral Hemming and Lieutenant General Gordon as he spoke. Hemming's hands were strong, and he was about 60 years old, but he was still as strong as a bull. Gordon was a mild-mannered, middle-aged man with great military management skills and an expert in sappers. Hemming's right-hand man, the Singapore Fortress, was actually designed by him.

"Fighting a war is not a math problem, my Lord Governor." Will. Hemming looked at the pale-faced governor of Bahrain, "If you can win with a large number of people alone, it is impossible for Britain to conquer India." ”

"Yes, otherwise 1.8 million Americans would not have been beaten all over the ground by 1.2 million Chinese!" Will. Hemming's words obviously did not encourage the Governor of Bahrain, and now the ratio of numbers in the eastern battlefield was 1:50, if not 1:100, China's military strength was almost endless, and India's internal situation was still quite unstable.

"India is like a pile of dry firewood right now, and it only takes a spark to start a fire." The Governor of Bahrain looked worried.

This banker was clearly frightened! Will. Hemming thought to himself that it would hurt him to make him the governor of India, and he would probably become the first governor in the history of the British Empire to be scared to death! This seat should really make Robert . Churchill, that dead fat man, should be.

"It's not that serious, don't worry too much about the Indians." Will. Heming smiled, "Most of those princes are cowardly, incompetent and calculating, and they can't make a climate. ”

"What about Queen Bay?" The Governor of Bahrain asked Will. Hemming and Gordon sat down separately and had three glasses of whiskey in person, and since the death of Napoleon III, his alcohol consumption has increased considerably. "Will, do you think we need to strike first? Arrest Queen Bayi and hang herself outside Fort William? ”

"Hanging?" Will. Hemming laughed, "Mr. Governor, this is not going to work. She said this as a woman of Her Majesty of China, and she was no threat to us. ”

"No threat?" The Governor of Bahrain took a long sip of wine, "Isn't she the bridge between the Emperor of China and the princes of the princely states of India?" Now the representatives of the princes of the princely states are about to trample on the threshold of her palace! ”

"It's just a bunch of useless parasites," said Will. Heming smiled, "In vain trying to save their good life with bribes, 4,000 years of rotten life have made India's elite rotten from the roots." Queen Bhai was no exception, she now has the most luxurious palace in all of India, with a mountain of gold and silver treasures, but she has to travel thousands of miles every year to spend a month in Yingtian to be the slave daughter of the Ming Emperor, and she is proud of it. So we don't have to worry about any Indian who lives in a mansion in Kolkata and has infinite wealth. ”

"Well, the Indians are nothing to worry about, but what about the 70 million bayonets of the Chinese emperor?" The Governor of Bahrain looked at Will. "Admiral, now that you are the commander-in-chief of the Indian army, how are you going to keep them out of India?" ”

Will. Heming shook his head slightly and looked at the governor seriously, "Your Excellency, there is no way to keep Chinese out of India...... So I'm going to put them in and fight! (To be continued......)
