The progress of German military in India was very smooth. After the main forces of British Army in India and Anglo-Indian Army were eliminated, although Anglo-Indian Army still had a huge force. Especially the second round of mobilization conducted by British Indian colonial authorities once again mobilized millions of the Anglo-Indian Army. This caused Anglo-Indian Army to suffer heavy losses on the battlefield, but their total military strength did not decrease but increased.
However, the combat effectiveness of these Anglo-Indian Army, who have just been mobilized to join the army, is extremely low, and can even be described as garbage. After all, they had not received any military training and did not even have enough weapons. They had to share one rifle with two people. Under such circumstances, how much combat effectiveness can these Anglo-Indian Army be expected to possess? It is natural to imagine what kind of performance they will have once they go to the battlefield.
In addition, Indian National Congress, Green Party Alliance and British Indian colonial authorities parted ways, which greatly weakened their strength. Under the attack of the two elite German military armies, these Anglo-Indian Army often fled. Before they even met German military, just hearing the news that German military had arrived, the army collapsed. It can be seen how low their morale has fallen.
In mid-June 1916, German 8th Army Corps captured Calcutta. At the same time, 4th Army Corps also swept away India in the south. It can be said that the entire India has been basically settled. At the same time, Princely Ruler from various India states have been notified that German Navy will provide warships to transport them to Germany.
These Princely Ruler can be said to be in high spirits this time. Originally, he thought that his own interests would be harmed and that he would not even be able to save his life. But they did not expect that Germany not only did not harm their interests, but also gave them land that did not originally belong to them, which directly made them overjoyed. Although Germany's disposal plan for India has not yet been determined, these Princely Rulers have already inquired clearly. The more military expenditures are donated, the better the land they will be allocated. You know, most of these Princely Ruler territories are mountainous areas, plateaus or deserts. The fertile India plains, India river basins and coastal areas are all under the control of the Britain people. In other words, it is the territory of the original Mughal Dynasty. However, after the demise of the Mughal Dynasty, it became a colony directly ruled by the Britain people. Now, those lands that Germany wants to distribute are those lands. This naturally makes these Princely Rulers hope to be assigned to the best place.
Although, having these Princely Ruler contribute their wealth makes them very distressed. But if they can get better land, they also think it is a very good deal. After all, compared to land, gold, silver, treasures and the like can be discarded.
On July 12, Qin Tian held a banquet in the palace to entertain these feudal lords who came from afar. You know, Qin Tian is now the emperor of the most powerful German Empire in the world. He personally entertained them, the feudal lords, which undoubtedly gave them great face. You know, the Queen of England never treated them like this when she ruled India. Even when the Queen of England visited India, only the princes of the larger princely states could be received by the Queen. Other small and medium-sized kingdoms simply do not have such qualifications.
At the banquet, Oscar talked enthusiastically with several older Princely Ruler, which flattered them even more. Each of these Princely Rulers patted their chests and promised that they would be loyal to the German Empire. Although, Oscar doesn't take what these guys say seriously. However, this undoubtedly means that Germany has been recognized by local forces like India. Next, Germany's disposal plan for India can be officially implemented.
The next day, these Princely Rulers all went to Imperial Parliament Building. Because there are so many Princely Rulers coming, if they go to Prime Minister's residences, they won't be able to be accommodated at all. Only the conference room in the Capitol Building could barely accommodate it.
Imperial Prime Minister Bülow, personally presided over this meeting. At the same time, other Military and Political Ministers members of the Empire also participated in this meeting. Everyone attaches great importance to this meeting. After all, this means that German Empire will receive a huge sum of money from India, which will greatly improve all aspects of Germany. In the eyes of these Military and Political Ministerss, these Indias and Princely Rulers have turned into humanoid gold nuggets. They can't wait to squeeze out all the net worth of these Princely Ruler.
"Every Princely Ruler who has come from afar, welcome to the German Empire. I believe that you have already experienced the power of the German Empire. I hope that you can join the German Empire family!" Chancellor Bülow said.
After arriving at India, these Princely Rulers have been organized and visited the military port, military camp and factory of the Empire, allowing them to see the power of the German Empire. There is already a concept in their minds that German Empire is so powerful that it is invincible. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly natural for them to surrender like German Empire.
One by one, Princely Rulers immediately expressed their willingness to be loyal to the German Empire, and swore by the gods they believed in that they would never betray German Empire.
Of course, this is just a formality. German Empire also won't believe that these Princely Ruler really won't betray. However, as long as German Empire continues to be strong, the possibility of betrayal by these Princely Ruler is undoubtedly very small. After all, betraying the powerful German Empire would mean paying a huge price. Maybe, even your own life would be lost. I guess only a fool would do something like that.
Next, Prime Minister Bülow began to announce German Empire's disposal plan for India to Princely Ruler.
"Everyone, India is far away from the German Empire's homeland. It would be very troublesome for the Empire to rule directly. In addition, all Princely Ruler are capable and trustworthy people. Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor will make the decision to allocate the land of India to various princes. His Majesty the Emperor hopes that India can become more powerful under your governance!" Bülow said.
As soon as Bülow finished speaking, those Princely Rulers all cheered and praised the greatness of German Emperor. After all, German Emperor has given them such great benefits, and praising them will not lose a piece of meat.
At the same time, in order to obtain better land in the distribution of those lands, those Princely Rulers are also working hard and preparing to donate as much military expenditure as possible to ensure that they can be allocated fertile land.
