Chapter 188
"Please don't misunderstand me. It was the Japanese who tampered with the plane. After all, it was to fight for a better treatment after the war. This is understandable. Isn't it just betraying a colony's rebel leader? You have to think about yourself.”
Seeing the silence of the Congress Party members including Nehru, it was Alan Wilson who broke the silence and solved the cause of the death of the former Congress Party leader Chandra Bose.
Nehru was silent, remembering his days in Congress with Chandra Bose. The two actually have a lot in common. For example, they both went to the UK for further studies, and they both felt that socialism could save India. But compared to Nehru, Chandra Bose is obviously more radical.
During his travels in Europe in the 1930s, Bose also researched and wrote the first part of what he considered to be a book, The Struggle in India, which chronicled Chandra Bose's experience in the independence movement and the building of syndicalism .
After returning from Europe, Bowes advanced his view that "the fight against corruption should be organized on the broadest anti-imperialist front, with the dual aim of winning political freedom and establishing a socialist regime".
Bowes was on the verge of being elected president of the Commune Assembly. He stands for unity and independence at all costs, including the use of all necessary force against internal and external enemies.
That was also the day when Nehru and Chandra Bose began to part ways. Nehru believed that India was not strong enough to confront Britain in terms of force. India needed time to develop, and it was best for London to maintain a confrontational and cooperative relationship.
And Chandra Bose will immediately hold a national uprising to overthrow the rule of the British colonists.
In retrospect, at the time of 1934, Chandra Bose's claims were unattainable. However, he did not expect that Chandra Bose would be so extreme in the end, directly joining the Axis powers.
Now knowing the cause of Chandra Bose's death from the British population in front of him, Nehru's heart is quite complicated.
On the one hand, Nehru felt a little sad, and on the other hand, he was glad that the end of Chandra Bose also showed that his proposition was correct.
As for the British man in front of him who entered the meeting room from the Congress Party, he began to show a tough attitude until he mentioned the death of Chandra Bose. Nehru believed that he was nothing more than forcing himself to make concessions.
After the Brussels Conference, Britain and France united with European colonial countries and returned to Asia in a group. The Dutch navy bombarded Jakarta, the French army landed from South Vietnam, and Britain and France pressured Thailand to cede the Kra Isthmus.
and the Portuguese reinforcements to Goa,
Spain formed the Far East Dispatch Army. There are indications that this time the Europeans came in groups, eliminating all the barriers between each other, and putting all their strength in the action of suppressing the colonies.
When mentioning that Chandra Bose was thrown to death by the Japanese, he implicitly pointed out that the Axis powers that some colonial resistance organizations counted on had already been destroyed. Not only were they destroyed, they also took the initiative to kill the leaders of the armed forces they supported in the past in order to avoid punishment. .
The Japanese that Chandra Bose was counting on could still be killed by the Japanese as a sacrifice to calm the anger of the Allies.
Now when the European imperialist countries come back in groups, does the Congress think it is a time of war? Can it threaten Britain?
Alan Wilson didn't expect Nehru to make up so many problems without saying a word. In fact, he was threatening Nehru very bluntly.
Although the atmosphere was a bit embarrassing, things still needed to be discussed. After the threat was over, Alan Wilson also said that the current situation is so straightforward. On the one hand, the British Empire and India can win, and on the other hand, they can also lose. The party's choice.
Once the construction starts, the demand from British India will drive the recovery of the British mainland. This is a win-win situation.
If the Congress Party comes up with non-violent non-cooperation again, the British Empire will go to the Mumeng League to talk to it. British India is not only a national political party but the Congress Party.
Moreover, in terms of interests, the Muslim League may work harder to implement it. More than half of the Greater Bengal region itself is a peaceful believer, and the mass base is still very good.
Peace believers are only a quarter of the population of British India, but as long as this quarter follows the British, the construction plan can also be carried out. In the end, Alan Wilson said flatly, "Who will let the people in this land In fact, manpower is the least valuable thing, maybe this is life."
this? The negotiators of the Congress Party glanced at each other and must admit that Alan Wilson was right. Manpower was the last thing that was lacking in British India. Even peace believers could also mobilize the manpower to support Dajian.
After all, it is not the environment after the First World War. At that time, Ali Jinnah and the Congress Party maintained a close relationship and resisted the rule of the British colonists together. nervous. It is no longer possible to stick together as it was after the First World War.
The Muslim League is the Congress Party's weakness. Nehru also knew this, and asked slowly, "I think the London side should know that the Congress Party is the most powerful party representing India."
"It depends on whether the Congress Party is willing to cooperate, and the London government is open to this." Alan Wilson staged another national quintessence change, and his tone became more relaxed, "Can we talk about win-win issues now? The British Empire India can also become a powerful entity free from the negative effects of war. Isn’t that such a difficult situation to think about?”
"Don't refuse such a good intention because of the so-called national sentiment. This involves 6 million people. The revitalization plan of the old industrial area in Kolkata. Think about it. The food problem of 6 million people depends on the NUS. The current attitude of the party, how many families are behind the six million people, and how many people are there in these families?"
If the survey report is correct, there are indeed six million industrial workers in the whole of Greater Bengal. I just don't know what happened to the gold content of this worker?

But in any case, the British India in 1945 was indeed much stronger than the country under the leadership of the national leader Chang Gong, and it was simply not in the same dimension. It can be said that the warlords could make use of the industry in the late Qing Dynasty, and the gun party was all scrap iron.
Who would believe that half of the country controlled by Mr. Chang produced weapons in eight years, not as good as Yan Laoxi, an inland province. Chang Gong should have a common language with Gandhi on some topics, such as turning the whole country into a big village.
However, Nehru was not Gandhi. He was still considering the construction plan, and glanced at the assistant beside him. The assistant asked knowingly, "We think this is a good thing for India as a whole, but we need to explain it in detail."
"No problem." Alan Wilson agreed gently, and asked the Secretary of the Governor's Mansion to call in professionals. He still lacks professionalism in this matter, and he just happened to make up lessons.
Soon began to enter into the negotiation of revitalizing the old industrial zone in Kolkata, about the significance of revitalizing the old industrial zone.
First of all, we must consider the significance of the Ganges Delta to the entire British India. As the mother river of British India, the Ganges River carries 80% of the population on the subcontinent. As the large estuary of the Ganges River, the Ganges River Delta has a very important meaning.
The Ganges Delta is an impact plain, and the local population density has great potential for development. It occupies a very large share of the entire proportion of British India. If this advantage is strengthened, it can even drive the economic development of the entire Ganges River Basin.
The Kolkata Industrial Zone is the industrial cradle of British India, with strong support capabilities in resources, industries, talents, and infrastructure, and has huge development space and potential. The conditions are superior, and the advantages along the border and the coast are obvious. It is an important economic growth, plays a decisive role in the overall development, and is crucial in the construction of British India.
Once the construction of the Kolkata Industrial Zone is successfully launched, it can have an impact on the entire Ganges River Basin. With the proportion of the population of British India occupied by the Ganges River Basin, the stronger the Ganges, the stronger India.
"I really learned it!" Alan Wilson was also fascinated by listening. Where did he find so many words? I still didn’t forget to point to the representative of the Congress Party opposite, “Hey, this is called professionalism.”
Now when I think about the partition of India and Pakistan, it is really a stroke of genius to divide the Ganges Delta from India. It simply blocks the development potential of the entire Ganges River and affects more than half of India's population.
In fact, the situation after India's independence is extremely bad, especially before Bangladesh's independence, it was almost surrounded by Pakistan, although India's national strength and population are obviously stronger than this old enemy.
"In principle, this is a very good plan." Nehru finally expressed his opinion and thought for a while. "I will go back and talk to other leaders. It will take some time for others to understand this matter."
"I can give a personal guarantee that I will never discuss this matter with the Muslim League before the Congress Party responds." Alan Wilson said very understandingly, "After all, if there is a majority support, who will go to What about the minority?"
The negotiation lasted three hours. After the congressmen left, the sky was not very clear, and Sir Barron was even ready to leave work.
"Oh, my Alan, how are things going?" Sir Barron saw that Alan Wilson had returned, and asked how the negotiations with the Congress Party were going.
"I don't think there is any problem!" Alan Wilson raised his wrist, and the diamond-encrusted German watch flashed away.
"Very good workmanship!" Sir Baron commented very approvingly.
Alan Wilson took the watch off his wrist directly, put it on for Sir Barron's refusal, and said with some blame, "Time is a very precious thing, Sir Barron, I must criticize you , I have to get off work at a certain time, and I have to combine work and rest."
