Britain adjusted the official positions of the Straits Settlements at the beginning of the year, and Mountbatten officially succeeded Lord Shanton as the Governor of the Straits Settlements.

Mountbatten was reluctant to this appointment. He wanted to succeed Wavell as the Governor-General of India, but unfortunately he could not do so.

Mountbatten's current position, in addition to the commander-in-chief of the British forces in Southeast Asia and the governor of the Straits Settlements, also serves as the deputy commander of the Allied Forces Joint Command in East Asia. Because of the performance of the British army in the East Asian battlefield, Mountbatten served as the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces Joint Command in East Asia.

The headquarters is not active internally and spends most of its time in India.

In the recent period, as super weapons from southern Africa and the United States have successively appeared on the battlefield, Mountbatten does not want to return to the Lion City. He is waiting for Wavell to retire, then he can take over naturally.

Wavell was born in 1883 and is now over 60 years old. He lost the sight in one eye during the First World War and has always been in poor health. Since last year, there have been rumors that Wavell is about to retire.

Wavell does want to retire, but not now. He will survive until the end of the world war no matter what. Mountbatten is destined to be disappointed.

If possible, Mountbatten really didn't want to bring the British and Indian troops back to the Lion City.

But he has no choice. The disarmament that Britain is currently discussing does not involve the British and Indian troops, because the maintenance cost of the British and Indian troops is much lower than that of the real British army.

British soldiers who join the army are paid, and wartime allowances are higher.

Indians can only have food if they join the army, and the pension after death in battle is also very low. It is precisely because of the existence of the British and Indian troops that the British dare to reduce the army to only the Royal Guard of Honor.

Low cost means poor quality, and the equipment level and training level of the troops are not good enough. These shortcomings are taken for granted in India, but in the current Lion City, they will be infinitely magnified.

Lion City is the seat of the East Asia Allied Forces Joint Command. Countries all have offices in Lion City. With offices, it is natural to send soldiers to take charge of security work.

Countries still attach great importance to this matter. The troops that can be sent to the Lion City must be elite troops with the best individual quality and weapons and equipment, and their functions are similar to those of honor guards.

Everyone knows the virtues of the British and Indian troops. Compared with the conventional troops of other countries, there is a clear gap. Compared with the honor guard, it is simply incomprehensible and can only be described as crooked.

That's all. If the Indian soldiers had self-awareness and conscientiously performed their duties after arriving in the Lion City, Mountbatten would be able to save some worries.

How is this possible? It's not possible to let the Indians fight. It's just too good to let the Indians follow the British and pretend to be powerful. This is what Indians are best at.

The Lion City can become the core area of ​​British colonial rule in Asia. Needless to say, the level of prosperity is unparalleled in the entire Asia.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War in 1941, the then Governor of the Straits Settlements fled in panic and the War Council took over the Lion City.

After the war committee took over, the Lion City became more prosperous than before. After many Indian soldiers came to the Lion City, they felt like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.

This is not right. Although Grandma Liu's horizons were broadened when she entered the Grand View Garden, she had a duty and did not treat the Grand View Garden as her own courtyard. She had the consciousness of being a guest.

The Indian soldiers did not consider themselves guests.

The logic of the Indian soldiers is this.

Because the Lion City is a British overseas colony and Mountbatten is the governor of the Straits Settlements, then if they follow Mountbatten to the Lion City, they should become the masters of the Straits Settlements.

At the very least, they have to be a higher class than the locals in the Lion City, just like the British people who used to live in the Lion City.

This logic is not surprising. India itself implements a caste system, so the class consciousness of Indians is engraved in their bones.

When the owner returns to his home, he naturally does whatever he wants.

The Lion City is one of the most prosperous places in Asia, so many Indian soldiers were dazzled by the prosperity of the Lion City and did not know their last names.

Here is another situation to introduce.

Although the southern African soldiers at Changi Naval Base kept themselves clean, as American soldiers and soldiers from Australia and East India moved in, the Lion City's special industries also prospered, with beauties from all over the world.

The problem of discipline in the British and Indian troops is particularly serious.

This is also related to the tradition of India. The country of bows and women is no joke.

Where there is a market, there is a demand. Since the War Committee cannot directly ban these fireworks venues, it can only strengthen management.

Therefore, those who are qualified to participate in this industry in the Lion City have some energy behind them.

Unlike the tents around the US military camps in Europe, the Lion City has very high requirements for this industry. The physical health of the employees is a must, and the requirements for the business premises are also very high. The cost of the guests' door-to-door consumption is naturally not low.

The guests can also understand and accept this situation.

The Indian soldiers did not understand.

When the master returns to his own home to enjoy the service of a servant, he still has to pay for it. Is there anything more ridiculous than this?

So within three days of Mountbatten's arrival in the Lion City, hundreds of Indian soldiers were arrested by the Lion City Police Station for not paying.

It's normal for one or two people to eat the King's meal. If there are more people, there will be all kinds of birds.

Hundreds of people were very abnormal, so the Lion City Police Department filed a complaint with Changi Naval Base.

This is very strange.

The British and Indian troops under Mountbatten's command were eating the Overlord's meal, so they should be sued to Mountbatten.

The Lion City Police Department reported the matter to Changi Naval Base, but there was nothing they could do.

Mountbatten held many positions and held a high position, so how could he be in the mood to deal with such a trivial matter? When the police chief of the Lion City went to complain, he did not even see Mountbatten's face. The commander of the British and Indian troops even sent people to attack the Lion City.

The police station took away the Indian soldier who committed the crime directly. The Lion City Police Chief had no other choice, so he came to find An Qi.

Angel is also very busy at work, and even if she is not busy, she would not care about such things, so the person who came to receive the Chief of Police in the Lion City was Colonel Rex, who was in charge of the connection between Changi Naval Base and the Lion City.

"For the British Empire, the Lion City is just an overseas colony. The British don't care about the future of the Lion City. They only care about interests." Stephen Lee, the chief of police in the Lion City, is of mixed British and Lion descent, otherwise he would not be able to hold the post.

this position.

Although he has British ancestry, Stephen Lee recognizes his identity as the Lion City and has no feelings for Britain.

Colonel Rex is of mixed British and French descent and looks like a pure white man. He also has no feelings for Britain and is a pure southern African.

"Just like you said, Lion City is a British colony and is not under the jurisdiction of the Southern African Expeditionary Force, so I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we can't help much on this issue." Colonel Rex was helpless on this matter.

It’s up to you Lion City people to stand up for yourself.

"The prosperity and stability of the Lion City is closely related to the Changi Naval Base. An Qi must not want to see the Lion City being turned into a mess by those Indians." Stephen Lee knew that An Qi had no feelings for the Lion City, but he had no feelings for the Lion City.

Chinese people have feelings.

When the Japanese army approached Lion City, the white people fled in a hurry. Now more than 95% of the population of Lion City are Chinese. Those white people who escaped will wait until the war is completely over even if they want to come back.

As for whether I can come back by then, I can't tell.

"Shuai An is very busy at work and has no time to deal with this kind of thing." Rex would never report this kind of thing to An Qi.

As the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces in East Asia, Angel deals with the problem of how to bomb Japan more effectively every day, and has no time to care about the lower body of the Indians.

"You are responsible for connecting with the Lion City. If the Lion City falls into chaos, it will also have an impact on your work." Stephen Lee did not expect Angel to come forward to restrain the Indian soldiers, as long as the Changi Naval Base is willing to come forward.

That’s it.

To put it bluntly, it is to use the Southern African Expeditionary Force to suppress the British and Indian troops.

It's really easy to do this.

Although the name is unfair, what Stephen Lee said makes sense. Changi Naval Base cannot be left alone.

However, we must pay attention to methods and cannot directly go to Mountbatten and ask Mountbatten to strengthen the discipline of the British and Indian troops.

Rex could not see Mountbatten either. Although Mountbatten did not have a high say within the East Asia Allied Forces Command, not just anyone could see him easily.

Because of this kind of thing, it is not convenient to go to Mountbatten.

But the reason for guarding these Indian soldiers soon became apparent.

The Indian soldiers do evil things in the Lion City. Not only do they not pay for anything, they also don't pay for meals in real restaurants.

As for drinking too much and urinating everywhere, it is even more common. For Indians, this is so informal.

Using "jie" here insults the word.

Although Rex wanted to help, he was unable to come forward due to identity issues.

Indians are not the only ones walking around the Lion City. The Southern African Expeditionary Officers and Soldiers at the Changi Naval Base also like to go to the Lion City during their vacations to watch movies, eat, chat with beautiful sisters, etc.

Although it is shown in movies and restaurant bases, every man must understand that home flowers do not have the fragrance of wild flowers.

The officers and soldiers of the Southern African Expeditionary Force pay as much as they need after spending money in the Lion City. They will also tip if they are in a good mood. Not only are they strict with themselves, but at the very least they abide by the law.

People who abide by the law hate those who break the rules the most.

A conflict soon broke out. When a group of Indian soldiers were eating a meal, two officers and soldiers of the Southern African Expedition couldn't stand it anymore and took action to give the Indian soldiers a severe lesson.

Then the British and Indian troops also came to the door.

There's nothing you can do if you don't find it.

The Lion City Police Department cannot offend the Governor of the Straits Settlements, nor can it offend the Changi Naval Base.

Strictly speaking, the Southern African Expeditionary Force is the real emperor in the Lion City.

"Wait a minute, you're saying that two expeditionary force soldiers defeated nine Indian soldiers with their bare hands. Don't you think this is a bit ridiculous?" Colonel Rex laughed, which was really satisfying.

The Southern African Expeditionary Force is well-equipped. Rex would not be surprised if two people could fight nineteen, not to mention two people on the battlefield.

Two against nine with bare hands, the Indian soldiers are too useless.

Being beaten does not count. The key point is that if you lose, you still have the nerve to complain. This should be placed within the Southern African Expeditionary Force. Don't worry about whether it is justified or not. Let's put him in confinement for a few days first.

"Those Indians drank, otherwise you would have been beaten." Major William from Newcastle's face turned red and he felt embarrassed.

If possible, Major William would never come to Rex for such a thing. It was so embarrassing that Major William felt like his face was on fire.

Those two soldiers from the Southern African Expeditionary Force were too gentle. Why not just beat those damn Indians to death?

In that case, it would be Mountbatten who came to find Angel.

It's normal to fight, after all, they are young and energetic people.

If a human life is lost, it is a big deal. If it destroys the internal unity of the Allied Forces, it can be put on the line.

"Then wait until they sober up and let them fight again." Rex really didn't just watch the excitement and didn't mind the trouble, he had to confirm the facts.

"All nine of them are in the hospital, and three of them have fractures. You are too cruel." Major William hated his men for not living up to expectations, and was angry that the people in southern Africa were unkind. It depends on the owner to beat a dog.

This "hate" and "qi" are very spiritual.

"Then what are you doing here? Shouldn't you go back and rectify military discipline?" Rex was in a happy mood, and he would beat you if you didn't know each other.

"It is you who should rectify military discipline. Don't forget that we are allies and we will never allow similar incidents to happen again." What Major William is worried about is not that his men will be beaten, but that the image of the British army will be damaged.

No matter how unbearable the Indian soldiers are, they are still British-Indian troops, flying the British flag and representing the honor and image of the British Empire. They cannot be bullied at will.

However, the nature of "Overlord Meal" and Overlord Meal are also different.

To put it bluntly, even eating that kind of "overlord meal" is not something human beings do.

"I can guarantee that if you don't restrain those Indians, this kind of thing will definitely happen again, and it will happen frequently." Colonel Rex kindly reminded.

Fights rarely happen among soldiers. After all, the discipline of the Southern African Expeditionary Force is very strict, and fights are punishable by military law.

However, when it comes to attacking the Indians, the Southern African Expeditionary Force is very happy about it.

Although Rex doesn't know the outcome of this matter yet.

But judging from the arrogant and fierce characters of the Southern African Expeditionary Force, the two soldiers who fought would not only not be punished, but might even be rewarded, just like the guy who fired off the cannon in front of the US Embassy.

.

Even if there is no reward, you will be envied by your comrades.

There are two reasons for this. Southern Africa and the United Kingdom are allies. In the past, when the Indian soldiers were inhuman, they must have been encountered by the Southern African expeditionary officers and soldiers.

I didn't do anything before because of discipline.

Now that the window paper has been pierced, more and more Indians will be beaten in the future.
