Chapter 908: The Emperor's Confidence (ask monthly ticket)

  Berlin, Germany, General Staff.

  Emperor Qin Tian, ​​Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff Marshal von Falkenhain, Minister of the Navy Marshal Reinhard Scheer, and Director of the Intelligence Bureau, General Bo Laiming, all gathered here.

"Your Majesty, Your Excellencies, Marshals, according to the information we have received, India is now expanding its army crazily. Under the mobilization of the Congress Party and the Green Party Alliance, countless Indian youths enthusiastically signed up to join the army. In a very short period of time, the British Indian Army, I'm afraid it will grow explosively!" Admiral Bo Laiming said with some worry.

   "How did this happen? How did the Congress Party and the Green Party Alliance get involved with the British and Indian colonial authorities?" Qin Tian frowned. Although India is only a colony, it has a population of more than 300 million. If Germany had a population of more than 300 million, in the last world war, Qin Tian would have the confidence to unify the whole of Europe. With a population of more than 300 million, tens of millions or even more troops can easily be mobilized! It is a pity that Germany has only a population of more than 50 million. Without affecting the future of the country, it has reached its limit to mobilize 3 to 4 million troops.

   Fortunately, the most populous countries in this era are not developed. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Western countries to dominate the world.

  Marshal von Falkenhain also had an ugly face. According to the plan, the German army would only dispatch two armies to attack India. The two group armies, after reorganization, are only 400,000 people. Compared with the troops that India can mobilize, the 400,000 people are undoubtedly not even a fraction of them.

  Of course, the combat effectiveness of the German army is naturally not comparable to those of the Indians.

   "How big might the British Indian Army be expanded?" Marshal Reinhard Scheer asked.

"Judging from the current situation, according to incomplete statistics, the size of the British and Indian troops may expand to more than five million! Of course, considering India's huge population, if they further expand their troops, there will be no problem at all. ” Admiral Bo Laiming continued.

   "That is to say, as long as the British are willing, the strength of the British and Indian troops will be further expanded. Even if it expands to tens of millions, there will be no problem!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty. Theoretically speaking, there is no problem in expanding the British and Indian troops to 10 million." Admiral Bai Laiming said.

"However, even if the Indian colonial authorities expand to such a large number of troops, they do not have enough weapons and equipment to arm that many troops. According to our estimates, their existing weapons and equipment can only arm three million people at most. Of course, Every day, a large number of merchant ships from North America dock in India, and these merchant ships probably transport weapons and equipment. Therefore, the number of British and Indian troops is also growing rapidly!"

"No! The British can no longer transport those weapons and equipment to India. In that case, we will pay a higher price for taking India. Marshal Scheer, the Indian Ocean Fleet and the Pacific Fleet set off? Let them blockade India as soon as possible. From now on, one piece of weaponry cannot be allowed to flow into India!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Reinhard Scheer nodded.

  The Indian Ocean Fleet and the Pacific Fleet are all ready to go. It's just that the home port of the fleet has not yet been settled, so they didn't set off. Now that the situation is urgent, I can't care so much. At most, send some more supply ships. Wait until the army has conquered India, and then slowly determine the home port of the fleet.

"Your Majesty, even if we blockade India, I am afraid that we will not be able to prevent the British and Indian troops from obtaining weapons and equipment. According to the information we have received, the British have expanded the scale of India's arsenal as early as a year ago. Now, India's arsenal It can produce hundreds of thousands of rifles. It can even produce machine guns and light artillery. It’s just that the quantity is not large.” Admiral Bai Laiming said.

"The British had expected that they would lose a long time ago, so they made preparations in advance. But even if that is the case? After the blockade of India, at least they will not be able to get supplementary heavy weapons! As long as we quickly If the battle is decided quickly, they can be defeated before they arm more troops!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Several people replied.

   "Your Majesty, do we need to increase our troops?" Marshal von Falkenhain asked.

"No need for now! The British armed those Indians in a hurry. It's just that they have an advantage in strength. In fact, how much combat power can those troops that have just been armed? I doubt it very much. As long as we quickly In the battle against India, those troops who have not even completed their training are nothing more than cannon fodder after being put into the battle. Our elite troops can easily defeat them. On the battlefield, once the troops are defeated, those recruits become The consequences for a defeated army are very serious!" Qin Tian said with a smile.

  Marshal von Falkenhain nodded, although the size of the British and Indian troops was very scary. However, in terms of combat effectiveness, it is naturally very rubbish. If the two elite German armies performed well, defeating them was not impossible.

   "However, I'm curious, how did the Congress Party and the Green Party Alliance cooperate with the British and Indian colonial authorities at this juncture? Didn't they always oppose the British and Indian colonial authorities?" Qin Tian asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty. In order to fight for India's independence, the National Congress Party and the Green Party Alliance have serious conflicts with the British and Indian colonial authorities. This time they will cooperate, which is also beyond our expectations. Our intelligence personnel The reply is that the British promised that as long as our attack is resisted in India, they will be allowed to give the Indians full self-government, and even let India become independent after a few years!" Admiral Blemen reported.

   "What? Just because of this, they will fully cooperate with the British?" Qin Tian was completely speechless.

   Those Indian **** are too easy to deceive. Even Qin Tian, ​​an outsider, could see that all this was just a British scam. But they still foolishly believed it. This made Qin Tian feel a little regretful, if he had known that they could have deceived those Indians in this regard? In this case, it will be much easier for them to win India.

  However, it is too late to say anything now.

"Well, since the native Indians have already supported the British, we have no other choice but to conquer them by force. I believe that the mighty German Empire will definitely be able to conquer India!" Qin Tian was confident. Said perfectly.
