After James and Steven were boiled alive, the Tamils had no way out.Izzadin decided to strike first and took the initiative to attack the British and Sinhalese.The Tamils, having the weapons of absolute superiority, completely unleashed their murderous nature.Tens of thousands of Tamils armed with expeditionary rifles set out from Trincomalee and swept through Sinhalese settlements.Once the feud between the two races that has been accumulated for hundreds of years erupts, it will be a destructive force that destroys the world and destroys the world.The small Sinhalese tribes were the first to be bloodbathed, with men slaughtered and women taken into slavery.The war started in the north of Sri Lanka, and soon the Tamils in the central and western parts of Sri Lanka actively responded and participated in the riots, and even the Tamils in the south of India also made a riot, and the British troops stationed in Sri Lanka soon helped the Sinhalese to quell the rebellion, and at the same time sent the news to Kolkata, the capital of India, asking for naval assistance.The Governor's House in Kolkata was in turmoil.Bombay had just reported that many Indian soldiers had become a little agitated because they had not seen the pay transport ship for a long time."
General Gordon, can you explain what happened The pay transport has been departing for more than a month, why hasn't it arrived in Mumbai yet," Lawrence, the Governor of India, questioned Gordon with dissatisfaction, and threw the official letter from Bombay on the council table."
Your Excellency the Governor, I have just received news of the Tamil riot, which has now spread from Sri Lanka to southern India.I suspect that someone is behind the scenes, and that the fleet that transports the salaries will not disappear for no reason. ”Gordon also took out a military report and showed it to Lawrence, his face was gloomy and gloomy, and he always had a bad premonition."
What is there to be afraid of these barbarians, as long as they hear our gunfire, they will not be frightened and flee" Lawrence frowned, looking at the military newspaper sent from Sri Lanka, he always felt that Gordon was a little bit of a diversion of the subject.He was still convinced that these fleets that transported military payroll must have lost track of time somewhere.In the waters of the Indian Ocean, who still has the strength to wipe out twenty British warships at once."
Your Excellency, this is not alarmist.The generals on the front line specially told them that when they were cleaning the battlefield, they found that these Tamils were also using breech-loading rifles.The rifle was also engraved with special symbols, which they had already found someone to identify, and these symbols turned out to be Chinese characters. ”Gordon looked at Lawrence's nonchalant expression, and his heart suddenly felt a little unhappy.But he still tried his best to suppress his emotions and patiently explained to the governor."
Chinese characters" Lawrence's eyes widened in surprise, and he asked in disbelief, "You mean that the Chinese are the masterminds behind the scenes" "Judging from the information obtained so far, it should be like this."
With the strength of the Tamils alone, they would not dare to make trouble even if they had ten more dares.And in the Indian Ocean, except for the Huaxing Army, no one can swallow our twenty warships in one go" Gordon nodded affirmatively, from the very beginning of the incident, he fixed his suspicious eyes on the Huaxing Army."
If that's the case, then it's serious."
Lawrence pondered, looked a little panicked, lit his pipe, and took two puffs."
That's right, that's not the scariest thing.The latest military reports from the front line in Bangladesh show that a large number of Hua Xing troops have also been stationed in Myanmar recently, and large-scale military movements of Hua Xing troops have also been detected in Nepal.Judging from the intelligence analysis of various sources, the Huaxing Army is about to invade India on a large scale. ”Gordon revealed another confidential military information and pointed in the direction to Lawrence on the topographic map.In order to avoid confusion, the matter is currently known only to the senior generals of the military, not even Lawrence."
God, are the Chinese going crazy" Lawrence's eyes widened in shock, and both mustaches were cocked."
Your Excellency the Governor, I have dealt with the Chinese and know their situation best.For some reason, their technology is decades ahead of the world, and even our breech-loading rifles have been learned from them.The whip of God came to earth again, and the first to be punished was India.We must warn the European countries.If the Chinese are allowed to develop, their warships will hit Europe sooner or later" Gordon reminded Lawrence with a serious face, without the slightest joke."
Will it be a bit alarmist that our British Empire's navy dominates the world, where will the Chinese be opponents" Lawrence was stunned for a long time, and he had a new understanding of China in his heart, but he couldn't accept the fact that they were more advanced than the British Empire."
Your Excellency the Governor, the Spanish Armada dominated the seas back then, and it was not easy for us to catch up with the British Empire.There is nothing static in this world, there will always be something new that replaces the old.I hope you will think carefully about what I have said, and be sure to tell the situation here as if it were a queen.If it is not taken seriously by the queen, India will soon be captured by the Huaxing army," Gordon reminded again, got up and went down to arrange targeted defensive measures.He was ready to send Bombay's army to southern India to quell the rebellion, and also to prevent the Huaxing army from landing in southern India.If left unchecked, the Great Rear of India will soon cease to exist.In Yangon, Myanmar, a mutiny was brewing at this time, and the target of the mutiny was Zeng Guoquan, the emperor of the new Han Dynasty.The Chengdu Military Region of the Huaxing Army sent 200,000 troops south to Burma to assist the New Han Army in resisting the invasion of the British army, and now it has completely controlled the initiative on the Burmese battlefield.The British army had already invaded Burma from Bengal, forcing Zeng Guoquan to take the New Han army up the mountains to fight a guerrilla war.As soon as the Huaxing army came, the British army was immediately defeated and retreated, and even the newly occupied Yangon was helplessly returned to the Huaxing army.Zeng Guoquan was defeated by weapons, and other states had garrisons of the Huaxing army, and the British army did not dare to invade casually.Only Burma was defended by Zeng Guoquan's New Han Army, and the weapons assembled were all old-style breech-loading foreign guns, which were no match for the breech-loading rifles of the British army.The British army entered Burma from Bengal, although there were only more than 20,000 people, but they quickly took Yangon, the capital of Burma, and almost cornered Zeng Guoquan.The Chengdu Military Region of the Huaxing Army is responsible for sending troops to Burma this time, and the high-ranking generals of the Chengdu Military Region have just made great adjustments.Because of Hong Renji's restoration, Qiao Zhiqing became more and more distrustful of these former generals who held military power.Whether it was the surrender of the Taiping Army or the Hunan Army of the Qing Court, he didn't want to use any of them.The order came very suddenly, and after Chen Yucheng and Chen Bingwen were successively deprived of their military powers and transferred to the governors of Anhui Province and Hunan Province respectively, various adjustments to the Chengdu Military Region followed.The first to be transferred were Zuo Zongtang, commander of the Yunnan Military Region, Guo Songtao, commander of the Guizhou Military Region, and Liu Kunyi, commander of the Sichuan Military Region.Like the Tibet Military Region, the three military regions belong to the same level as the main military region and are under the jurisdiction of the Chengdu Military Region.The three were transferred to the governors of Yunnan Province, Guizhou Province, and Sichuan Province respectively.Commander Zhang Shusheng and Chief of Staff Zhang Yuchun were respectively transferred to the Ministry of National Defense to serve as vice minister of national defense and deputy chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense.Wu Xuming, deputy commander of the Chengdu Military Region and commander of the Tibet Military Region, officially assumed the post of commander of the Chengdu Military Region.The Chengdu Military Region belongs to the level of a large military region, and the commander and chief of staff are both in the rank of lieutenant general, and their status is naturally higher than that of the major general of the provincial military district.Zhang Shusheng and Zhang Yuchun naturally will not be adjusted to the same position as Zuo Zongtang, they joined the Huaxing Army early, and their contributions are also great, so they were transferred to the Ministry of National Defense to serve as a vacant position.Fictitious positions are fictitious positions, nominally always one level higher, and the two have nothing to complain about.Originally, Chen Yucheng and Chen Bingwen had greater credit, but because the two of them had something to do with Hong Renji's restoration, Qiao Zhiqing was able to not blame the past and give them the position of governor, which was already the greatest gift to them.As soon as the veterans at the top vacated their seats, the young rookies were also promoted.Wu Xuming's chief of staff Zhang Derivation and deputy commander Gao Jingdong were also promoted to chief of staff of the Chengdu Military Region and deputy commander of the Chengdu Military Region respectively.When pacifying Sichuan, they were only the left and right brigade commanders under Wu Xuming.Along the way, Wu Xuming rose step by step, and they also rose step by step because of their military merits, and at this time they served as chief of staff and deputy commander of the Tibet Military Region respectively.In order to avoid unstable morale in the army, the vacancies of the commander of the Yunnan Provincial Military Region, the Guizhou Provincial Military Region, and the Sichuan Provincial Military Region were also promoted from among the deputy commanders of the three military regions.The Chengdu Military Region is entirely responsible for the current war against India.Wu Xuming did not dare to be careless, and personally dispatched troops in Chengdu.By order of the Ministry of Defense, India was entered from two directions, Tibet and Burma.After careful consideration, Wu Xuming decided to place the main force of the offensive in the direction of Burma.The Tibet Military Region only served as an auxiliary force, detouring from Nepal behind the British army and cooperating with the main force to carry out surprise attacks.At present, the road into Tibet is still very tortuous and difficult, and logistical supply is quite difficult.After Wu Xuming pacified Tibet, he reduced taxes in Tibet for another three years.If we march into India from the direction of Tibet, we will not be able to guarantee logistical supplies at all.His suggestion was quickly adopted by Qiao Zhiqing, and now that the navy had opened a third front in Sri Lanka, there was no need to risk marching from Tibet to India.Almost none of them had ever been to Tibet, and they saw that Tibet was condescending to India on the map, and they did not understand at all how dangerous the road from Tibet to India was.For this reason, Qiao Zhiqing also specially reprimanded the generals of the Ministry of National Defense in order to keep them vigilant at all times.When strategizing, don't just know how to draw against a map.It is necessary to make a decision based on the actual situation and with reference to the data of all aspects
