Think about the limitations of the military research and development of the Allies in history not only limited the scale, but also some technical details, such as the elevation angle of the anti-aircraft gun is up to 45 degrees... The pistols developed by the Germans even limit the barrel length... And in this plane, the Germans can completely limit the British naval and air weapons in accordance with the example!

"It's still a bit early to talk about these issues. We must first ensure that the British Empire will not go bankrupt and that the government can continue to operate." As a politician, Asquith itself is somewhat resistant to military and technical aspects. After all, in his opinion, if the country cannot operate stably, what is the role of the so-called military?

"Okay, we can ignore other things for the time being, but we must at least save two Furious Class battleships? We can retire three dreadnoughts for this purpose! Four can also! The naval arms race will not stop with the end of the war. Both the Japanese and Americans are building battleships equipped with 16-inch guns and standard displacement of more than 35,000 tons. The British Empire will not be able to build new battleships in the next 10 years. This consequence is unacceptable." Lloyd George asked again.

"I will consider this issue, but not now..." Before Asquith could finish his words, the rapid knock on the door outside interrupted the talks inside the house.

"Damn it, haven't I told them not to bother us if there is nothing important?" the irritable Prime Minister complained. After taking a look at the anxious Prime Minister and the flushed Lloyd George who had just argued, Earl Belfer decisively stood up and came to the door. After a brief exchange with the servant, he received a telegram from the British mainland from the latter.

"It's an expedited telegram." Earl of Belfort handed the telegram to Prime Minister Asquith.

"Hope is not bad news." Asquis muttered and opened the telegram. In fact, this was just his self-comfort. At this time, when the British Empire was surrounded by enemies, how could there be any good news? However, even though he was prepared, after seeing the content of the telegram, Asquis only felt a ray of air conditioning directly rushed from the tailbone to his forehead. The old man felt that his heart seemed to be held hard by a pair of big hands!

"What happened to the Prime Minister?" After a moment, Lloyd George said after seeing Prime Minister Asquith stabilize his emotions.

"What happened in India, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata! A large-scale riot occurred! And the local Indian army actually refused to maintain social order! Even thugs attacked the military camp and government agencies! Damn, the Indian Governor actually said that he could not maintain local order and he still wanted support! Now we don't even have enough daily necessities, so where can we get the support for him! This is simply too bad!" Asquith collapsed on the chair weakly, and the telegram in his hand also slid on the floor.

As a senior executive of the British Empire in this era, he may not be proficient in other things, but how to suppress the colonial independence movement, the British Empire has a history of hundreds of years, and there are many wars fought around the colonial independence movement, including those who have won and those who have failed. For example, the American War of Independence, the more victories, such as suppressing the Sultan Mahdi Uprising, the Indian National Uprising, etc. So the British have rich experience in this issue.

But what does one say? A good woman can't cook without rice! If it were normal, for Britain, the uprisings in various places were just equivalent to a cold, but for Britain, which is now terminally ill, this cold would be fatal! Think about it, if India became independent from Britain at this time, it would definitely not have lost the most dazzling gem in the British crown.

You should know that India in the British colonial era was not India after independence. As India in the colonial era covered a very large range! India in the later generations, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and other South Asian subcontinents were included! If India's national independence movement was successful, then more than 4.5 million square kilometers of land and hundreds of millions of people in the entire South Asian subcontinent would disappear from the British territory, and then there would be a chain reaction. Similar movements may occur in Myanmar and Malaysia in later generations.

In this way, except for the so-called domination, the British Empire will lose almost all its colonies! When those dominations find that the British Empire has collapsed, they will never do their best to help Britain overcome difficulties. It is the most likely time to directly choose to disband! After all, no one is willing to bury a lost empire! And at that time, can the British Empire still be considered an empire? I guess even if the British really want to be the younger brother of the Americans, the Americans are too lazy to accept it, right?

"It seems that the first thing we have to do now is to stabilize the situation of the colony. I suggest that we temporarily submit an adjournment note to the Germans, and then you immediately return to London to deal with the situation in India. We must stabilize the situation in India in a short period of time. For the moderate parties in India, we can give certain benefits and at the same time resolutely crack down on the rioters!" said Earl Belfort.

"It's very difficult. If I remember correctly, all the police, troops and paramilitary forces in India combined will only be about 70,000! The local local soldiers are simply unreliable, and this is no longer the time for the Indian national uprising. At that time, we could still buy feudal princes, but now, those princes are gone, and we can't use tens of thousands of troops to suppress the entire India!" George Lloyd said helplessly.

Why could the British quickly pacify the Indian national uprising that spread throughout India? It is indeed one aspect of the British army's ability to conquer and fight, but the most important thing is that the British have very good political skills, while the Indian uprisingers have very bad political skills!

In addition to the British army, the number of Sikh local soldiers and local princes was more than the British army. The British first relaxed their policies on princes and princes and allowed them to stand on their own side. The number of princes and princes and princes participating in the suppression of the Indian national uprising exceeded 200,000! Both the British used the dispersion of the Indian national uprising to defeat them one by one. What about the Indian uprisingers? They did not have a clear goal, or they just wanted to restore their rights, so this policy was not popular with the people. After all, in the minds of Indian civilians, the kingdom and the British colonial government were not good...
