While Britain, far away in Europe, was grieving the fall of India, the Chinese Empire was already hailing victory. The end of the Indian battlefield is really too good for the empire. First of all, the Empire's forces will not be trapped in India and can be transferred to other battlefields. Secondly, the situation in India has stabilized, which is equivalent to the empire having a vast and large market. Third, the abundant booty that the empire received from India would give the empire enough money to continue the war.

"Oh God! This is my property, and you have no right to rob the wealth of the unlawful! "A fat white man with bald hair and most of his hair would not let go of a suitcase containing all the wealth he had accumulated in India.

However, after Calcutta fell into the hands of the Chinese Army, the British had become prisoners of war. The Chinese Empire would not guarantee the safety of their property, which was plundered by the British from the Indians. Now, the emperor of the Chinese Empire is about to become the emperor of India, and it is natural that he will take over this wealth.

"Bang!" An Imperial soldier slammed the butt of a rifle into the fat white man's head, making a hole in the head, and blood flowed freely. However, even so, the hand holding the suitcase is still unwilling to let go, which is undoubtedly a typical one's life.

"Humph! Let go, if you don't let go, you'll shoot! When a second lieutenant officer pointed a pistol at the white man's head, he ultimately made a wise choice. Although he loves money very much, the muzzle of the black hole gives him too much pressure.

"Oh God! These damn Chinese, they actually want to plunder my wealth. When you die, you will go to hell! The white man cursed constantly. It seemed that this had become the only means he could fight back.

However, the Chinese soldiers did not care. Walked away with the suitcase.

After the capture of Calcutta, the Imperial Army began to collect the wealth of the city. The looted wealth of the colonial authorities of British India. and the British banks, and the British, all of whom became the object of plunder. Their wealth belongs to the empire from now on.

"I don't know how much wealth Kolkata can scrape. I heard that the 7th Army directly collected tens of billions of gold and silver treasures in Delhi! Calcutta is no less rich than Delhi, but it cannot be compared to them! Lieutenant General Chung Wenquan, commander of the 13th Army of the Imperial Army, said. According to the agreement between the empire and the princes and nobles of the princely states, now is the time for the empire to reap the spoils of war.

"It shouldn't be worse than Delhi! I had heard that the troops had collected hundreds of millions of dollars from the Indian Governor's House on the outskirts. There are so many rich people in the city of Calcutta, if they are all scraped up, there must be a lot! Lieutenant General Luo Xinde, commander of the 14th Group Army, also said.

"That's right. Lao Luo. India's war is now over. It is not known which army group will be left behind. The rest of the troops will definitely be transferred to other battlefields. I'd like to be able to go to other battlefields so that I can build more feats! Lieutenant General Zhong Wenquan, commander of the 13th Group Army, said with emotion. The enemy on the battlefield in India is too indifferent to be entertained at all.

"I guess it's going to be a European battlefield! It was the home of the North Atlantic military alliance, and most of our allies, with the exception of the Kingdom of Prussia, were too weak to hold out. In order to win the war, the empire will definitely send reinforcements to Europe. I hope to be able to go to Europe and have a good fight with the British! Lieutenant General Luo Xinde, commander of the 14th Group Army, also said.

War for the people. Not a good thing. However, for soldiers, it is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions. The generals of the empire want to be able to get more feats. Thus getting promoted. They crave war, they crave the defeat of the enemy. This is undoubtedly a good thing for the empire. That's the only way. The Empire's front will not be dulled.

The city of Huaxia, the capital of the empire, represented the two men of Handrao and Afza in the princely states of Vadodara and Hyderabad. At the time of the fall of Calcutta, he immediately went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire. They brought a check for a billion dollars. The cheque was written by the Imperial Industrial and Commercial Bank. As the Chinese Empire became the overlord of the East, many Indian princes transferred their assets to the banks of the Chinese Empire. This time, the billion Chinese dollars was the second batch of military expenses collected by the Indian princes to pay the Chinese Empire.

However, the Indian battlefield was too smooth. The two batches of military spending for 2 billion yuan will certainly not be exhausted. However, no one dared to bring this up. The British are finished, and the Chinese Empire has taken over British rule over India. They have hundreds of thousands of soldiers in India, and if they don't leave, this will be a huge blow to the Indians. Therefore, the princely states of India did not dare to go against the Chinese Empire in the slightest, for fear of giving the Chinese Empire an excuse not to leave India.

"Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, according to our agreement, this is the second batch of one billion Chinese dollars of military expenses paid by the princely states of India to the Chinese Empire!" Handrao handed the check to Wei Yuan, the Imperial Foreign Secretary.

"Hmmm! Rest assured, the Imperial* army has captured Calcutta. The British rule in India had almost been swept away. The recalcitrant princely states have also been wiped out, and then, the rule of India will be in charge of you, the princely states! Wei Yuan said. Of course, he knew that the people of these princely states were in such a hurry to send a billion Chinese dollars because they wanted the army of the Chinese Empire to withdraw from India as soon as possible.

In fact, the Chinese Empire did not have any intention of occupying India. India has too many people, and if they are colonized and enslaved for a long time, there will definitely be chaos. When the time comes, I am afraid it will evolve into a quagmire. Even if the empire is strong, it is in danger of being dragged down. Therefore, it is better to withdraw from India as soon as possible.

In addition, the empire has gained enough wealth from India. In the future, there will be as much as 800 million Chinese dollars a year in military spending, which is already much better than the empire's direct colonization of India.

Sure enough, after the Imperial Foreign Minister Wei Yuan said this, both Handrao and Afza breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Excellency, I don't know when His Majesty, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, will be able to concurrently serve as the emperor of India?" Afza asked. It was already agreed that the emperor of the Chinese Empire would be the emperor of India.

"Now that we are at war, Your Majesty the Emperor is busy, let's wait until the war is over!" Wei Yuan said.

Handrao and Afza did not insist on it, they knew that the Chinese Empire would not give up the position of Emperor of India. Although this is only a nominal honorific title, it is already very good to be able to get 800 million Chinese yuan a year. What's more, Kolkata and the surrounding areas will also become the direct territory of the Imperial Emperor Long Yufei.

After seeing off Handrao and Afza, Wei Yuan rushed to the palace and delivered the check to His Majesty the Emperor. That's a billion dollars! Wei Yuan was the Foreign Minister of the Empire, but he had never seen so much money. Although his salary is already very generous, it is estimated that it will take dozens of lifetimes to earn so much money based on his salary alone.

As for Mirza, who signed a treaty with the Chinese Empire on behalf of the royal family of the Mughal Empire in India. Jahan. Prince Shah, after hearing that the Mughal royal family in India had been slaughtered by rebels during the war, died of heartbreak. It can be said that at this time, the descendants of the Mughal royal family in India were all killed.

In the main hall of the Imperial Palace, Long Yufei was holding a pre-imperial meeting. There was only one main point of the meeting, and that was that the General Staff was informing the Emperor and the Cabinet of the harvest of the spoils of the Imperial Army in India.

"Your Majesty, after a preliminary count, the total value of the booty collected by the Imperial Army in India is as high as 30 billion Chinese dollars! In addition, the imperial army will be stationed in India for a period of time, and it will probably collect billions of dollars of wealth! "The Chief of the General Staff, General Sun Hao, was surprised even though he already knew this figure.

You know, the empire's annual revenue is only two billion yuan. The annual military expenditure is only 200 million Chinese dollars. Three hundred billion Chinese dollars is enough for the expenses of the empire's army, navy, and air force for one hundred and fifty years.

"Your Majesty, this is a check for one billion Chinese dollars from Handrao and Afza. With the previous one, and the billion Chinese dollars sent by the Mughal royal family, the total is already three billion Chinese dollars! Foreign Minister Wei Yuan said.

"Well, all this money will be collected into the treasury!" Long Yufei said.

As much as more than 30 billion yuan of additional income, the empire was full of oil in this war. Originally, the empire planned to spend 10 billion Chinese dollars in military spending in this war. But now it seems that after the Indian campaign alone, the empire has made a lot of money!

"Your Majesty, how should you use this money?" Prime Minister Lin Zihao asked.

"This money, priority is given to ensuring the consumption of the Empire* army on the battlefield. For the rest of the money, let's pay back all the money that the empire owes to the common people! It's not difficult to borrow well and borrow again! In the future, when the empire needs money urgently, it can continue to talk to the common people. Part of the remaining money is used to develop the economy and strengthen the construction of domestic infrastructure. The other part is used to develop military technology and re-equip troops. At the same time, it is necessary to prepare for the next world war! Long Yufei decided the use of the money in just a few words.

The current world war is not over yet, but Long Yufei's eyes have fallen on the next world war! (To be continued......)
