Chapter 11 Junagadh Tupa
Of course these words were not said to the aides in front of him, but Allen Wilson, from the point of view of involving his own interests, let these aides understand how they should make choices, “You have to understand that, once the independence of British India becomes mainstream in London. What is the question we should now immediately consider? Now that there are 100,000 civil servants and their families in British India, will they become Indians directly in the future?”
Seeing these aides shaking their heads, obviously not keen on becoming Indians, Alan Wilson turned the tables and said, “Then we have to consider another question, are there so many jobs left in the homeland for those of us who are returning home? Can we still stay among the civil service?”
Said to this point, the meaning has been very clear, including Alan Wilson, the Hyderabad Commissioner, now the entire British Indian civil servants are at risk of unemployment, in order to the future life, as far as possible to fight for their own interests is not too much to know that they are facing the world’s richest man.
This unification of thought was so successful that there was no need to think about the future of unemployment, and out of the British settlement the city of Hyderabad was full of ragged, idle men, staring with numb eyes and begging. Imagine these ill-fed people as themselves, and it could be the scene of the independence of British India and their return to British soil.
Figuring this out, and then discussing the problem, these aides are obviously much smarter, and seem to have grown up between one day and become really like civil servants, out of the schoolyard student temperament has disappeared.
Get to the armament, Alan Wilson that is not difficult, in 1945 this time, more than five million troops fighting under the command of the United Kingdom, although the United Kingdom’s main army building is based on the Navy, but in the World War this critical point, the army on the also known as a huge, to the tanks, for example, including infantry tanks, cruiser tanks, including the production of twenty-six thousand, which is not counting the back of the number of heavy tanks.
Trying to arm an Indian Tupa is not a problem at all, the only question is whether there is anyone to do it seriously.
During the first month in Hyderabad, Alan Wilson familiarized himself with his work, thinking about how to get benefits from Ali Khan, the richest man in the world, to play his role in the independence of British India, although the independence of British India did not seem to have a standard answer.
But he also knew that the independence process of British India, just with his Hyderabad Commissioner’s identity, it is not possible to play an influential role, in the two years before the independence of Allen to do a lot of things.
On the independence of British India, Alan Wilson of course have their own ideas, after independence of India can not be too weak, or not play a role in checking the world of peace teachings, but too strong India will not be peaceful.
Moreover, after India’s independence, how would it view the period of being colonized by Britain? There is no doubt that India will certainly consider it a national shame, and the paragraph about Britain’s plundering of fifty trillion dollars, which is flooding the internet in later times, will represent what Indians think.
As long as there is not that hate-pulling neighbor to the north, Britain is generally the object of curses by Indians.
While establishing a personal friendship with the monarch of Hyderabad, Allen was also making contact with other earth states. As the most powerful earth state in present-day South Asia, the Hyderabad earth state plays the role of a weathervane among the more than five hundred earth states in India. It can be said that many earth states are following the Hyderabad earth state to speak.
“I talked to John, Junagadh Tupa and Hyderabad are in the same environment, the two Tupas share a common destiny, if the two Tupas can establish a close link, whether it is Ali Jinnah or Nehru, especially the latter should be calmer.” The John that Alan Wilson spoke of was the Commissioner of Junagadh Tupa.
Junagadh Tupa, together with Hyderabad Tupa, and the well-known Kashmir, are currently the top three independent kingdoms in South Asia, of which the 50,000-square-kilometer Junagadh Tupa has a unique advantage because this Tupa is next to India’s largest deep-water harbor, Mumbai.
Mumbai is responsible for more than half of the maritime transportation in South Asia and is also the home base of Bollywood in the latter days. In fact, Junagadh was the best located of the three major states, but it was also the first to be destroyed. The monarch of Junagadh, like Ali Khan, was a pacifist, and the inhabitants of Junagadh were predominantly Hindus.
Junagadh and Hyderabad were inextricably linked and no one could escape! Once they were broken by Nehru, it would mean that all the five hundred or so Tupangs, would be in New Delhi’s pocket.
“Our two Tupangs are far away, he’s in a much better position, close to the northwest.” Ali Khan frowned and commented in an objective tone, it was actually true to say that, Junagadh Tupa was actually really quite close to post-independence Pakistan. But the overthrow was even earlier than Hyderabad Tupa, and there wasn’t even decent resistance, not as bad as Hyderabad, which had been the scene of a bloody battle.
Of course Allen didn’t say that the Pacifists didn’t want to fight the Hindus when they first became independent because of their numerical disadvantage, and then it was also India that went too far. Junagadh Tupa and Hyderabad Tupa, Nehru said respecting public opinion, the majority of Hindus wanted to join India.
But when it came to Kashmir, Nehru changed his rhetoric again, saying that the monarch of Kashmir was a Hindu and wished to join India, properly I want all of them, which angered Ali Jinnah and caused the first Indo-Pakistani war.
Could the Indo-Pakistani war have been avoided? Alan Wilson knows that it is impossible, because the Nehru family’s hometown, in the territory of Kashmir, the Nehru family is the Mughal Empire period of famous scholars, because of the Mughal Emperor’s conscription, only to enter the Mughal Empire to expand their influence.
Kashmir has an important significance for the Nehru family, and it is not too much to say that it is the land of the dragon’s prosperity, and Nehru would never give up his home to Pakistan.
Hearing Ali Khan’s mixed feelings about Junagadh Tupa, Allen Wilson had to take the initiative to open his mouth to encourage, “With the Congress Party’s current prestige, it is a common situation for the monarchs of many Tupas to face. The monarch of Junagadh Tupa is the same as you, and the fact that Junagadh Tupa is very close to Bombay and has the objective condition of blocking the harbor can be utilized.”
Allen Wilson kinda brought into the role of dog-head warlord and was kind of devoted to Ali Khan. Although he knew that it was almost impossible to stop Nehru from unifying India with the power of the major native states, but what if there was a surprise?
