Thank you very much XRX63162 for the monthly pass, I am so touched, I ask for your support, ask for red tickets, collections, and rewards......

After the Battle of Khamma, the Wehrmacht pursued the British troops to the border between Tibet and Bhutan and then stopped, because Bhutan was now British territory, and there were less than 10,000 British troops able to escape.

In January 1910, Britain and Bhutan signed the Treaty of Punakha, which stipulated that Bhutan's foreign relations were "guided" by the British, so Bhutan is now under British control. The current king of Bhutan is Uyan Wangchuck, who abolished King Deb in 1907, proclaimed himself king, and established the Kingdom of Bhutan, with a combination of political and religious powers, and a hereditary king.

Bhutan does not have many troops, only less than 2,000 troops, and the weapons are very backward, Qin Yu did not let the Wehrmath enter Bhutan so quickly because he wanted the British army to return to the embrace of China after leaving Bhutan, this time Qin Yu did not want Bhutan to go out independently again.

Smith let the Bhutanese army go without stopping after entering Bhutan, he didn't think that his deserters and Bhutan's garbage army of less than 2,000 would be able to withstand the attack of the Wehrmacht, so he rushed all the way to Myitkyina.

The British government was also surprised to learn that Smith was defeated so quickly, and it seemed to them that Smith and they were able to hold out until the Far East Fleet entered the waters of China, but now the Far East Fleet had just entered the Strait of Malacca and Smith was defeated, and the remaining British troops were less than 10,000. In Smith's telegram for help, Smith has always emphasized that the ironclad monsters that can move like cars and spray cannonballs are simply the meat grinder of war, and this meat grinder is the biggest factor in the defeat of the director.

The British government knew that the Wehrmacht had this monster and thought that it might be a German-made weapon, but according to the report of the British intelligence officers in Germany, Germany did not have such a weapon, and Huaxia's possession of that kind of weapon seemed to have formed a scale, so they sent out the possibility of German-made, which may be a weapon developed by Huaxia itself, although it is incredible, but it is still acceptable.

The current British government can only hope that the Far East Fleet can teach China a profound lesson and let the Chinese government stop in moderation, otherwise it will bombard Nanjing and warn the Chinese government.

The Wehrmacht immediately began to deploy preparations for transnational operations after conquering Kangma, and the Wehrmacht who went abroad for the first time was very excited, and finally one day China would be able to defeat the powerful British army, and if they could expand their territory, they would be immortal, which was an honor for the glory of their ancestors.

King Uyan Wangchuck of Bhutan was an ambitious man who personally visited King George IV of Great Britain in 1911 in order to maintain Bhutan's relative independence. He knew about the British army from Tibet when the British army entered Bhutan, and according to the fact that he learned about the British army's defeat from the mouth of the servant army deserters who fled to Bhutan, he could not imagine that the powerful British army was defeated by the Chinese army, and there were still 100,000 troops in China chasing the British army. He also learned that the Chinese army had terrifying airships and iron boxes that could move and spray cannonballs, which made him even more alarmed, and if the Chinese army pursued the British army, it would inevitably pass through Bhutan, and his own army was no match for the Chinese at all.

Uyan Wangchuck made a decision at this time, his army must not fight against the Chinese army, he first announced that he would join Huaxia and become a vassal of Huaxia, if Britain came back in the future, it would be fine to join Britain again, and Huaxia would not care much about his poor small country.

Just when Uyan Wangchuck made up his mind, the IDF also began to enter Bhutan, and the IDF marched all the way to Yanbu, the capital of Bhutan, without resistance, and as soon as they arrived, they surrounded Yanbu, and Cai Yi directly asked the interpreter to contact the king of Bhutan and make the king of Bhutan surrender.

Upon learning that the Chinese army had surrounded Yanbu, Uyan Wangchuck immediately sent someone to bring the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmath into the palace, and ordered the Bhutanese army to abandon resistance and let the Wehrmath enter the city.

After the National Defense Forces had received Yanbu, Cai entered the palace with an interpreter to negotiate with King Uyan Wangchuck of Bhutan.

After meeting the King of Bhutan, Uyan Wangchuck, Cai Ye directly asked the interpreter to talk to him: "Now Bhutan is under the control of my Huaxia, and Bhutan has been my Chinese territory since ancient times, so we hope that Bhutan will once again enter the embrace of the motherland." ”

Uyan Wangchuck: "Since 1907, Ughan has been independent, when we were free from the rule of the Qing Dynasty and recognized by Britain and other countries, so we should have the right independence for Bhutan, and we are willing to become a vassal state of China and respect China as the suzerain. ”

Cai Yi: "Impossible, my Huaxia government is not the Qing government, and we will not trust the British recognition of Bhutan's independence, so you should die of this heart, the Huaxia government means that the Kingdom of Bhutan will be dissolved, and Bhutan will be under the jurisdiction of Tibet Province again." ”

Uyan Wangchuck roared, "This is impossible, the kingdom of Bhutan will not be dissolved, the people of Bhutan will live and die with the kingdom, unless we all die, the kingdom will not be dissolved." "When the Kingdom of Bhutan is dissolved, he will no longer be king, and his power will be gone.

Cai Ye said coldly: "There are not many people in Bhutan, we in Huaxia don't mind exterminating all those who disagree, and I will do the extermination of the ethnic group." ”

After listening to Cai Yi's words, Uyan Wangchuck and the Bhutanese minister were in a cold sweat, if Huaxia really did this, they would be the first to bear the brunt, and they were also afraid of death.

Cai then said to Uyan Wangchuck: "After the dissolution of the Kingdom of Bhutan, you can still be the religious leader here, but you will never be allowed to build an army, and some of your family members will go to Nanking to serve. The Huaxia government sternly warned you not to have the idea of recovering the country, once you became independent again, the army would march in here and kill on a large scale, because the Chinese law stipulates that anyone who betrays the country will be punished with death, and the whole clan will be divided and destroyed. ”

Uyan Wangchuk and the ministers were all terrified when they heard this, this law is simply a demon, they have never heard such a terrible law, the number of people in a clan is too much.

Uyan Wangchuck thought about it and reluctantly accepted, if he didn't accept it, he might not be able to see the sun tomorrow, if he was still in Bhutan, he could continue to be the king if the British called back in the future, as for sending some family members to Nanjing, there is no problem with sending some family members to Nanjing, and he has a lot of children now, and he can have another life after he doesn't.

On October 15, 1912, King Uyan Wangchuck of Bhutan sent a telegram to the world announcing the dissolution of the Kingdom of Bhutan, and Bhutan accepted the administration of Tibet Province of China and became a subordinate region of Tibet.

The King of Bhutan's telegram made Britain's defeat in Tibet completely public, and Britain immediately issued a statement saying that this was the Chinese government threatening the Kingdom of Bhutan, the Kingdom of Bhutan is an independent country, and Britain will rescue the Kingdom of Bhutan from the hands of China, and at the same time, Britain also admitted its defeat in Tibet for the first time, Britain said that this is only temporary, as long as the British Far East Fleet arrives in China, it is when China knows that it regrets, and also announced that it will recruit troops in India and Australia again.

At the same time, Russia and France declared that Bhutan was an independent country, and that China was invading other countries and destroying the country of Bhutan, and at the same time said that the strong armies of Russia and France could help Britain defeat China's defense forces, and hoped that Britain would consider letting Russia send troops to India.

Japan, on the other hand, was both happy and nervous, and it was glad that Britain's strength in Asia had declined, and it also proved that Britain's strength in Asia was very weak, otherwise it would not have been able to defeat even the backward China; Nervously, it was Huaxia who actually defeated the British, and the strength of Huaxia became more and more alarming to Japan, and they were afraid of the rise of Huaxia and the retaliation of Huaxia. Therefore, in order to suppress the Chinese government, Japan also declared that Bhutan is an independent country, and China should maintain Bhutan's independence.

Germany and its allies were very supportive of China, and the four countries also declared that Bhutan was China's territory rather than an independent country, and they also vigorously promoted British interference in China's internal affairs, and Britain, which was known as the world's number one power, was defeated by China, which was a big joke.

The United States was also gloating at the defeat of Britain, and the United States directly recognized the Chinese leadership over Bhutan, which was the territory of the Chinese people.

South American intelligence and Peru and other countries also recognize Bhutan as the territory of China, they don't care who Bhutan is at all, they just want to make trouble for Britain, this kind of thing is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

The Chinese government did not care about the unreasonable troubles of Britain, France, Russia, Japan, and other countries, and directly stated that Bhutan has been the territory of China since ancient times, and that it would only leave the motherland when it was threatened by a certain country a few years ago, and now that Bhutan has returned to the embrace of the motherland, we will certainly be able to defeat the invading enemy and safeguard the territorial integrity of the motherland.

The Chinese people were very excited to learn that the Wehrmacht had defeated the British army in Tibet and recovered Bhutan, and this was a great joy that was earth-shattering. The people who knew the news were in tears and rushed to tell each other, and many people set off firecrackers to celebrate, which was even more lively than the New Year.

Smith and the rest of the British army kept fleeing to Myitkyina, while the Wehrmacht rushed towards Bengal, and the 100,000 Wehrmacht troops who had just arrived in Lhasa did not stop and rushed directly to Nepal. The British conscripted servants in Australia were urgently pulled to India by steamer every day after training, and the French army in Indochina also began to gather on the border with China, which was used by the British to threaten China, and China was not afraid, and also transferred a large number of troops to garrison the border between Guangxi and Vietnam.
