"What? How could this Harding be so bold?! ”
When Charles Harding, the viceroy of India, led his army into the plateaus of the Pacific Empire in China, it took some time for the news to reach Europe and England.
It should be said that it is already a lot faster, the YA film war in 1840, the cause of the incident was only known in Britain more than half a year later, and now it is only about ten days to know, thanks to ...... Well, it seems that we want to thank Li Mengyang, the emperor of that empire, but we will definitely not say thank you!
Anyway, King George V of England knew that Harding was going to fight the Pacific Empire with his army, and he was very angry about this, because this was the governor's private use of soldiers, which was simply ...... Of course, in fact, the authority of the governor is very large, and it is true that India is too far from the British mainland.
Besides, this Harding is not a fool, he said it very clearly, that is, to take revenge on the Australian side and save face for the British king...... Anyway, the reasons are all neat, too many.
But this thing, for the current situation in the world, is simply ......
"Your Majesty! There is no need to worry, with the military might of His Excellency Harding, coupled with the strength of the Indian people, I believe that the entire territory of the plateau will be taken soon, and when the time comes, it will be a very powerful threat to the Chinese region of the Pacific Empire, which will double the pressure on the clown of Clint Lee......"
Labour's Chamberlain family is now a popular man in front of the British king. This time it was Joseph Chamberlain's turn to speak. Otherwise, they were robbed by their own father and brother.
But don't say it. Joseph Chamberlain didn't know anything about military affairs, but this remark was a bit interesting, and it seemed to be the case.
That's right, if you can take down the plateau, then from the map, this is to set the backyard of the Pacific Empire on fire!
Well, here it goes. What does the Conservative side say?
"Your Majesty! This time His Excellency Harding's march, we need to strengthen his army! Make a big splash! In international public opinion, strong support! Vigorously suppress the Pacific Empire......"
This guy Balfour didn't object, but was talking about something else, and wanted to engage in a public opinion war.
Why is this happening?
Actually, Balfour is not a fool, he also understands that Harding's guy is definitely an idiot, but this idiot is now with the army, so we can't stop it at all. No way. India is so far from the British mainland, what can we do?
Even if they were ordered to come back now, they would not be able to do it. When your order passes, they will already be on the road, but that's it, judging from the current situation, just like Harding with the British army and the Indian army, just such a combination, they go to fight the plateau of the Pacific Empire, which should have a great chance of victory!
Yes, this guy Harding is indeed very reckless, but in the eyes of the British, especially in the eyes of these nobles, what is that plateau like?
Wasteland, barren land, primitive, the people over there are a bunch of uncivilized guys, if the British used to see the Qianqing, also saw it this way, and also thought so, then, looking at the people on the plateau, their evaluation is......
If the former Qing Dynasty is compared with the plateau, then the former liquidation is a modern civilized person!
That's right, that's what they think, it's always been like that, and it's a plateau, don't you know how difficult it is to develop there?
Of course, at this time, they didn't add it up, just the gang that Harding was carrying, what would happen to them when they went to the plateau, panting unevenly, they didn't think about this.
And, ah, there is a particularly important point, that is, didn't you get a living Buddha from the plateau in the first place, the British don't care if this guy is a real Buddha or not, a true god, anyway, you don't know what you should be doing here?
So, this living Buddha sang and lost the Pacific Empire all day long, and cursed Li Mengyang to die early, and shouted all day long, how unfree and oppressed the people on the plateau were, and went around holding Dharma meetings or something, but it was just ......
What kind of ritual utensils are used in the puja, lamps made of human brains and bones, and mallets made of human thigh bones...... Anyway, he didn't say that ordinary people don't know yet, but wait for such a question, yes, don't ask about the strange shape?
As soon as this living Buddha said what this thing was, it scared the British, especially Queen Victoria before, and the old lady didn't sleep for days.
But it doesn't matter, it's good to scold, it's good to scold!
And ah, after scolding for so many years, what about this...... Most of the British people think that the plateau area, or a little more broad, the Chinese region of the Pacific Empire, is really still uncivilized, or very, very backward.
In this world, because of the relationship between time and space, a lot of news is not delivered smoothly, India and China are separated by a Himalaya, which is like a wall, and the British have built a wall in people's hearts for various political purposes, so naturally they can't see anything real.
Therefore, Harding's guy is so bold and reckless, so daring to fight, in fact, there is a reason for this, he still thinks that since the British Empire conquered the whole of India with only 7 people, then I am now with an army of more than 100,000 people, what is impossible to defeat China?
It can be said that it was the British who lifted the stone and shot themselves in the foot......
In addition, there is another important thing, that is, after the previous world war, Britain's control over his colonies is getting weaker and weaker, and the free economic alliance he engaged in is actually a concession in itself.
Yes, it turns out that everyone is your British territory, although it is called a colony, but it is also a national land, but now, we call it an alliance, so the leader of the alliance is Britain, but what about the others?
By the way, this itself gives the colonies a lot of free space, although the governors, ministers, and whatever, but the control is not as good as before, this, the governors of the colonies themselves know, just say this India, when the world war, India sent a lot of soldiers to the European battlefield, there are tens of thousands of people!
The British have always been urine, that is, we only pay money, and the dead are the business, so anyone can do it, as long as it's not us.
So, we in India have made such a big effort, don't we want something?
The third brother is not really stupid, their little abacus is very shrewd, but it is only a small abacus......
Also, this Harding is also a guy who likes to take risks, let's just say that Delhi, the capital of India, was not the capital before, just because George V came, and then Harding forcibly moved the capital, so now......
"Surge! Surge! We must have a massive increase in troops! ”
"Your Excellency the Governor, it's too difficult for our existing troops to be deployed......"
"Then give me a local conscription! That's right! We want all of India to be soldiers! ”
"This ...... Be! Your Excellency the Governor! ”
Now this Delhi is simply in chaos, no one thought that the Indian army, which was slowly confident, under the leadership of the wise Governor Harding, would be defeated so quickly!
The key is that the defeat is simply too fast, so fast that people can't hang up...... Let's just say that this Harding, he was still swaggering towards the plateau before, but it didn't take long for him to run back again, does this speed of defeat still need to be said?
How did you come back so quickly?
If you don't come back, you can't do it!
Basically, there is no way to fight this battle, as long as Harding's troops touch the troops of the Pacific Empire, it will basically collapse at the touch of a button!
At the beginning, Harding was quite a general, and he also thought that the Indians were too rubbish, and these guys should be slaves, and as for fighting, they really couldn't.
But then, as soon as the British army fought...... Hey! Defeat faster!
In fact, Harding really underestimated the Indian army, you know, the main members of the Indian army are the Sikhs, that is, the guys with turbans on their heads, and these guys, they are all five big and three thick, and the fighting spirit is very strong.
If you want to talk about the British army, in fact, these guys have almost no fighting spirit, because the British are in India, what kind of existence is that?
In Hinduism, as long as the crooked nuts are the Kshatriya class, let alone the British, they are still the masters of the Indians.
Therefore, the British soldiers have no morale at all.
So, he kept losing and retreating, and the defeat was very fast, and Harding was smart, and he ran back to Delhi, ready to recruit troops, because there were no more people.
Dead dead, run, it's simple......
However, at this time, the pursuers also arrived......
