Delhi, the Viceroy of British India, Viceroy Hope, was yelling in anger.

"Oh God! How so? How could those Indian untouchables revolt? Haven't they been tamed by us? Don't they know that this will kill them? Victor Hope said angrily.

The post of Viceroy of India was undoubtedly a fat shortage for the British. Because India is so rich, being the Governor of India for a few years can easily collect enough money to be comfortable for a few lifetimes. Therefore, many people are desperate to become the Viceroy of India. However, when the Chinese Empire became stronger and stronger, and approached India from the east, west, and north, it was necessary to weigh up the matter of becoming the governor of India again. Many feared that the Chinese Empire would launch a war of invasion against India. Therefore, the position of Governor General of India is not so popular.

In order to guard against the invasion of the Chinese Empire, the number of British and Indian troops had expanded to 500,000. Not only that, but the British Army has deployed 100,000 men here. Trying to use strong military power to resist the invasion of the Chinese Empire and keep this most important colony for the British Empire.

In addition, the situation in India is somewhat complicated. With the awakening of national consciousness, many Indians demanded to get rid of British colonial rule and obtain the same autonomous status as Canada and Australia. It's just that the British have been perfunctory to these Indians. Fortunately, India's largest party, the Congress Party, although it has a high level of influence in India, is not inclined to use force. This came as a relief to the British. But now, India has an armed uprising, and the Anglo-Indian army has been defeated to suppress it, how can they not be worried?

"Your Excellency, it is useless to say this now. What we have before us is that the untouchables have started an uprising. Moreover, the whole of Mumbai has been occupied by them. According to the information we have received, after the defeat of the two Anglo-Indian infantry divisions that had gone to suppress it, the army controlled by the Indian Bolshevik Party involved in the rebellion had reached more than 30,000 men. Moreover, they have also captured the arsenal and arsenal of Mumbai, and their army is snowballing. Sir John Greer Deere, commander of the British Army in India, said. He was a lieutenant general in the British Army, with full command of the 100,000 British Army and 500,000 British and Indian troops deployed in India.

"Oh God! Your Excellency, what can I do about this? We must send troops to suppress them immediately. All the Indian untouchables who participated in the rebellion must be hanged as an example! Governor Victor Hope said through gritted teeth. He just wanted to be a governor in peace, make a little money in India, and then go back to England to retire. Now that there is an uprising in India, isn't this a problem for him? If he doesn't do well, he will be dismissed soon, which is undoubtedly a great blow to him. Therefore, he naturally hated the Indian Bolshevik Party and those rebels to death, and wanted to hang them all.

"Your Excellency the Governor, what is now before us is that we no longer know whether the Anglo-Indian army is reliable or not. The failure of the two Anglo-Indian infantry divisions that had gone from Bombay to suppress the uprising was largely due to the fact that many of them turned their guns on the spot. The Indian Bolshevik Party had developed a great deal of strength in the Anglo-Indian army, and if we continued to send the Anglo-Indian army to attack Bombay, I am afraid that we would still be defeated. And if it fails, it will make the army controlled by the Bolshevik Party in India even stronger. It's as if we're constantly transporting nutrients to them. In that case, they will become stronger and stronger, and it will be even more impossible for us to suppress them. In the end, we will even be defeated by them. Sir John Greer Deere said.

"Bastard, are we not going to do anything? Watching them get stronger and stronger? Governor Victor Hope said angrily. He didn't want to end up being driven away by the Indian untouchables. In that case, his future would be ruined.

"Your Excellency the Governor, I have ordered the British troops stationed in India to suppress them. However, the British Army was either stationed in northeastern India or northwestern India to deal with the threat of the Chinese. Travelling from these places to Mumbai takes a lot of time. Sir John Greer Deere said. With the Anglo-Indian Army already unreliable, they were able to send only purebred British Army. It's just that it takes time. By the time the British Army arrived in Bombay, perhaps the Bolshevik-controlled army had grown many times stronger.

"May God bless us." Governor Victor Hope said a little speechless.

"Your Excellency, from now on, I will proceed with all efforts to purge the Anglo-Indian army of Bolshevik elements, in order to ensure our control over the Anglo-Indian army. Rest assured, Your Excellency, that those untouchables, even if they are in a state of flux, will never pose a threat to us. The British Empire will not be able to defeat even those untouchables. Sir John Greer Deere said.

"I hope so. In any case, the Indian colonies must not be thrown away from me. Governor Victor Hope said.

"Yes, Your Excellency. However, I think it would be advisable for Your Excellency to urgently meet with the Congress and the Green League to ensure that they are not influenced by the Bolshevik Party. If they think that an armed uprising is a good option, then we are in even more trouble. Sir John Greer Deere said.

"Damn, I know, I'll try to hold them down." Governor Victor Hope said. He knew that if the Congress Party and the Green League were also inclined to fight the British colonists with an armed uprising, the problem would be serious. The Congress Party and the Green League have a greater influence in India than the Indian Bolshevik Party. When the time comes, the whole of India will be ignited by the uprising. And if the British wanted to suppress these uprisings, it was simply impossible. The worst outcome is that they will lose India completely. That would be an absolute blow to the British Empire.

While Viceroy Hope of India was still deliberating with Sir John Greer Deere, the Congress Party and the Green Church Alliance were actually discussing the uprising in Mumbai.

As the oldest political party in India, and the presence of people like Mahatma Gandhi, the Congress Party has developed into the largest party in India. Even the British colonial authorities often had to rely on the Congress Party to rule India. Of course, there are irreconcilable contradictions between the Congress Party and the British colonial government. They wanted to completely separate India from India, to become an independent country, not a British colony. To this end, they waged a long struggle. The so-called non-violent non-cooperation movement is what they advocated and initiated.

Originally, they also hoped to force the British to make concessions and recognize India's independence by such means. But now, the Bolshevik Party of India has directly launched the most extreme armed uprising, trying to drive out the British colonists by force and thus gain independence. However, this is definitely not what the Congress Party wants to see. If the Bolshevik Party of India succeeds, then they will surely gain all the power of India in the future. The Congress Party will be completely suppressed. Moreover, in the style of the Bolshevik Party, once the uprising was successful and power was seized, would there be a way for the Congress Party to survive? It can be seen from the current Soviet Russia that other parties have long been banned.

Congress leader Jawaharlal Nehru convened key Congress leaders to discuss an armed uprising led by the Indian Bolshevik Party in Mumbai.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Bolshevik Party has successfully carried out an armed uprising in Bombay, and has defeated the Anglo-Indian army that went to suppress it, and they have succeeded in taking control of all of Mumbai. And, their strength is growing rapidly. This will have a great impact on the situation in India as a whole. Everybody talks, what should we do next? Jawaharlal Nehru asked.

Jawaharlal Nehru is also a bit of a struggle, on the one hand, his teacher Gandhi's non-violent non-cooperation movement has a great influence in India. Especially after the First World War, it developed rapidly. However, choosing this mode of struggle is tantamount to voluntarily giving up the use of force against the British colonial authorities. Now, seeing the success of the Bolshevik uprising in India made him feel a little uncomfortable. If the Bolshevik Party in India succeeds, then the future power in India may have nothing to do with their Congress Party.

"Your Excellency, can we also launch an uprising like the Bolshevik Party? In India, we have more influence than the Bolshevik Party. There were our men in the Anglo-Indian Army and among government officials everywhere. If we had started an uprising, there would have been more people to support us, and it would have been easier for us to succeed. ”

"No, we are advocating a non-violent non-cooperation movement. If we were to engage in an armed uprising, it would be contrary to our previous purpose, it would make the people think that we were going back on our word, and it would affect our reputation. Moreover, His Excellency Gandhi would not have approved of our armed uprising. ”

Among the leaders of the Congress party, there were also two main groups of opinions, which were in favor of the armed uprising and those against the armed uprising. (To be continued.) )
