But the situation is different now. The accomplice of the suppression of the uprising, the Indian princes, were almost wiped out by the British. India already had its own political parties, which were organized, had a ruling program, a mass base, and even had the help of local local soldiers. They had the ability and willingness to unite India, but Britain is now unprecedentedly weak! Perhaps an inadvertent act would lead to the collapse of British colonial rule in India! In this case, the British were not afraid!

"If we just asked the Germans to recess this way, would the Germans become more severe?" Earl Belford said with an ugly face.

"No, the Germans don't want to keep the British Empire penniless, because if this is the case, they may not get a compensation. Moreover, if we really get this point, we can only choose to surrender to the United States, and Germany doesn't want to see this. So the Germans won't do too much, but in some details, they will oppress us." Prime Minister Asquith said.

"Now, I order, Earl of Belfort, you immediately contact the German side, requesting them to delay the negotiation process, and at the same time tell the Germans that if Germany is willing to provide us with some convenience, then we can guarantee that gold, diamonds, copper mines, non-ferrous metals and vaults in Rhodesia will be transferred to the Germans at one point, and they can accept them now. The local government and personnel of the British Empire will definitely cooperate."

"Mr. Lloyd George, after you return to the country, you immediately concentrate the remaining weapons and combatants, and go to India immediately after the Germans are willing to open the sea route! Tell the generals who lead the team that the Indians want legislative power, civil rights, and economic rights, but they are absolutely not allowed to be independent! That's it!"

Asquith still has the ability. He clearly realized that this time Britain would not be able to calm the independence movement if it didn't fight a few games in India. Therefore, the most important thing now is to mobilize the army! Lloyd George returned to the country to collect the remaining British troops only to rescue the emergency, and the real key is to let the Germans entrusted their hands, release some British prisoners of war and return some weapons. Only when the Germans are willing to release hundreds of thousands of British troops, the British will have the opportunity to use their own strength to finally solve the problem of India.

Of course, the cost will be very high. If the British wanted to use ships to transfer the wealth of the colony before the Germans took action, then now, I'm afraid they will be honest. Maybe some people say that the Germans may not know how much wealth there is in the British colony. So how can the Germans determine whether the British have transferred?

I can only say that such people are too pure and not suitable for the current political environment... The Germans have such a good opportunity, so they naturally have to blackmail the British! Even the Germans don’t have to know how many precious metal reserves there are in the British colonies, just make up for them by themselves! For example, the Germans can estimate South Africa’s gold production based on their own needs, and then tell the British people how much you should take out! If not enough, you must transfer it secretly! No matter how I do it, you must get it back for me! Even if you forcefully collect from the people, you have to collect enough quantity! That’s right, this is blackmail. There is only interests between countries! Especially when facing defeated countries! Of course, the quantity cannot be too much, or asking for a lot of prices. After all, the basis of blackmail is the limit that the other party can bear!

Is there any other way to solve the Indian problem besides letting the Germans loose? There are solutions, but that method will be even more expensive! The British would not do this unless they had to!

"If nothing happens, let's prepare to take action now?" Lloyd George thought for a while and said. As the British Foreign Secretary, Earl Belfort would definitely not be able to return to the UK. After all, although the two sides were adjourned, there would still be various contacts. After the Foreign Minister left, the British had no one who was equal to Germany, which would make the other party feel dissatisfied.

Prime Minister Asquis would not be able to leave for a while, because negotiations with the Germans involved colonial delivery, this issue would be very complicated, and some issues must be decided by the Prime Minister. Therefore, the only one who could go back immediately and prepare for the first army to India was Lloyd George, who was in charge of military production and had a relationship with the generals of the army, could coordinate these things well. Time was urgent, and wasting every minute was a crime against the British Empire, so he decided to prepare to go back immediately. Once the Germans allowed, he would return to Britain immediately.

"Wait a minute, if the Japanese ambassador makes some requests at this time, then no matter what, I will agree temporarily." Asquith, who had hesitated for a long time, said finally.

"You are planning..." Earl of Belfort said worriedly.

"I just hope they won't make trouble at this time." Prime Minister Asquith sighed.

"It seems that the British-Japanese alliance will continue?" Earl Belford asked.

"That's right, at least it's the case now. There are many things we can think of but cannot do. Even if we have to do it, we have to leave it to our descendants to do it. Doing what we see well, sometimes it is not a good thing to see too far." Asquith said that, he closed his eyes and made a gesture of breaking up the meeting.

When the British learned about the accident in India, there was naturally no reason for the Germans not to know... So, just as the British were deliberately considering how to put out the fire, the Germans began to consider how to use this matter to take advantage of it! At least in the eyes of Grand Duke Baden, Albert and others, it was necessary to use this opportunity to cut two pieces of meat from the British! So the two who did not sleep at night came to the crown prince's residence excitedly and prepared to discuss this matter!

"So, in the eyes of both of you, we seem to have the advantage now and can put forward harsh conditions to the British as much as possible?" Ruprecht said after listening to their statements.

"Isn't it? We can even adjust the compensation higher! If the British cannot control the entire India, we can even help them." Albert said excitedly.

"What you said makes sense. We can indeed consider increasing our investment now, but I want to remind you that there is not much room for us to obtain material benefits. If this matter can really bring us some benefits, then this is definitely at the political and strategic level, not simply colonies or money. So, we must wait and see!" said the crown prince.
