Tanzambique formed the Sikh army into a Sikh legion, the commanders of this army are British, and the grassroots soldiers are all Sikhs. Curzon, debriefing.

Tanzambique excitedly to George? Curzon said, "Your Excellency the Governor, this Sikh army is very strong in combat, and our chances of victory are not small. ”

George? Curzon was a little puzzled in surprise and asked, "The Sikh Legion doesn't have very powerful weapons, so how strong can their combat strength be?" ”

Tanzambique excitedly said: "Yes, the Sikhs are so brave and good at war, much better than the British and Indians!" ”

George? Curzon smiled and said, "Are they stronger than all our soldiers of the British Empire?" ”

Tanzabik nodded and said: "Of course, although our soldiers of the British Empire are relatively high, they do not have a sufficient sense of obedience, and from time to time there is a phenomenon of doing their own thing, and our soldiers of the British Empire have one of the biggest weaknesses, that is, they dare not sacrifice, cherish life too much, and it is easy to miss opportunities on the battlefield." ”

"On the other hand, the Sikhs have a particularly strong sense of obedience, our officers of the British Empire will do whatever they ask them to do, even if they sacrifice themselves, they do not hesitate, recently the Sikh army is practicing a special anti-main gun chariot tactic, this tactic is like this, give the Sikhs a huge explosive bag, let them get under the car when the main gun chariot is moving, and then detonate the explosive pack, and the main gun chariot dies together."

George? Curzon smirked and said, "This is a kind of play that our noble British soldiers will never do. ”

Tanzanbik nodded again and again, and then said: "As for the Indian native soldiers, they can't be compared with the Sikhs, the Indian native soldiers are very scattered, and extremely stupid, you have taught him many things ten times, he can't do it, he is the most headache soldier in the world, there is no one." ”

"Although these Indian soldiers are stupid and stupid, they still have a good sense of obedience, and they are afraid of our commanders of the British Empire, and it is okay for them to do some odd things."

George? Curzon nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, you return to Amritsar as much as you can, sit there and command, and you must block the Chinese to death." ”

Tanzanbique hesitated for a moment, but didn't immediately agree, George? Curzon frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" Mr. Tanzanbique, don't you want to go? ”

Tanzambique sighed and said, "I would love to go, but I have a natural shortcoming, so I shouldn't go to Amritsar." ”

George? Curzon was stunned for a moment and asked, "Natural insufficiency?" What do you mean? ”

Tanzanbik said: "I have implemented a lot of economic policies in Mumbai to protect the merchants of the British Empire, and these economic policies have brought me a lot of bad reputation, so the Sikhs in Punjab do not have much affection for me, and I think it is better to let Mr. Ali Gaponi go to Amritsar, the Sikhs do not know Mr. Ali Gaponi, and he can easily gain the trust of the locals." ”

After Tanzabik said this, he secretly thought in his heart: "Although the Sikh army is strong, the Chinese are stronger, and the Chinese are also the most powerful characteristic, that is, the 'mysterious' toughness, because you never know what the next advanced weapon the Chinese will take out of the arsenal!" ”

"If I stay in Amritsar, I will be in danger when the Chinese come in, so it's better to stay away from Amritsar now!"

George? Curzon nodded and said with a smile: "What you said makes a lot of sense, well, I'll let Aligaponi go to Amritsar." "George? Curzon called Ali Gaponi, who readily agreed, and in this way, the enemy who had killed the members of the Chinese mission was about to meet Lin Yuan again in Amritsar, Punjab.

The Plateau Warfare Division marched eastward from Peshawar and gradually came to the edge of the plateau, and was about to enter the Punjab Plain, which was divided into two in the time of Lin Yuan, with the western part belonging to Pakistan and the eastern part belonging to India, and the people who belonged to Pakistan mostly believed in Islam and those who belonged to India mostly believed in Sikhism. In this era, India and Pakistan were not yet partitioned and were both British colonies.

Fang Xianyang, the commander of the 60th Plateau Combat Division, came to a small city called Rawalpindi, which was the key point of communication between the plateau and the Punjab plain, and the British occupied it since 1849, and built a large number of military forts here.

However, these military fortresses could not stop the plateau combat division at all, and the British were also very self-aware and withdrew all before the arrival of the plateau combat division.

Fang Xianyang led his men to settle in this small city and wait for the follow-up troops to enter the town between Peshawar and Rawalpindi to cover the rear of the Plateau Operations Division, the 78th and 79th Divisions, which were subordinate to the 39th Division, which was stationed in the western province of China.

The Punjab Plain has abundant rainfall and a large network of rivers, but the 60th Plateau Combat Division can fully cope with it, and Fang Xianyang was stationed in Rawalpindi for more than ten days, and only then came down from the plateau when the follow-up troops were completely in place.

The 60th Highland Operations Division had come down from the plateau on September 10, and during this time, the Sikh regiments in Amritsar were training in full swing, and the Sikh fighters, seduced by the British, were preparing to give the most deadly attack to the Chinese.

Most of the people on the western side of the Punjab plain believe in Islam, and only a few believe in Sikhism, and Chen Fei has established a good image for the Chinese in Afghanistan and Peshawar, so the movement of the Plateau Combat Division in this area has basically not encountered obstacles.

The plateau combat division carried out land reform while marching, and won the support of the local people, many of whom took the initiative to act as guides and transport migrant workers.

The people of the Punjabi plain speak Punjabi, which is completely different from the Pashto spoken by the Pashtuns, so the original interpreters brought by the plateau combat division could not be used, and they had to recruit interpreters from the local people.

The Punjab Plain is so far away from China that there are no people who can speak Chinese, but there are quite a few people who know Pashto, and some people who know English, so these people act as interpreters.

The Plateau Combat Division made some preparations for the war, and finally reached the west bank of the Chenab River, where Ali Gaboni led the Sikh army to garrison the east bank, and a major battle was about to break out.
