Ch.275Let’s Split India (2)

    # Roman Treaty Organization in Russian Rome

    It was time to divide India.

    I attended the Roman Treaty Organization meeting in person with tears in my eyes.

    In any era, a woman’s tears serve as powerful evidence.

    “Civil war has broken out in India. It’s truly sad. Normally this would be handled within the Roman Treaty, but I’m attending because I’ve supported Prime Minister Churchill and India’s independence from the beginning.”

    I shed rolling tears, clinging to them as if begging the Roman Treaty to resolve this tragic situation.

    “How could this happen? A bloodbath in India after our British Empire so graciously granted them independence.”

    “It’s truly heartbreaking. Though Britain has been accused of oppressing India, we’ve now led their modernization and allowed them to gain independence peacefully, with separate independence based on religion, ethnicity, ideology, and thought. Yet Gandhi, taking advantage of our absence, has forcibly bound India together.”

    The colonial imperialists of the Roman Treaty nodded at my words.

    They were probably all excited about spinning their washing machines anyway.

    Just look at it.

    Britain has now modernized India and completely withdrawn its military to allow India to move toward civilization and avoid civil war by promoting separate independence.

    During this process, Gandhi refused to allow the independence of various factions and worked hard to keep them bound together.

    Who would look evil?

    Wouldn’t Gandhi appear as just another oppressor to each ethnic group?

    At least Chandra Bose and Nehru understood the reality.

    “A self-proclaimed non-violent pacifist is trying to oppress ethnic groups, Muslims, and Sikhs who demand independence? This cannot stand!”

    Even Churchill is shedding tears now, though it doesn’t suit him at all.

    I suppose if he’s going to spin the washing machine, he might as well spin it thoroughly.

    Now, it’s time to expose Gandhi.

    I’ll be honest.

    If Gandhi had followed my words exactly, I would have seriously ensured he’d be remembered in history as a proper independence activist.

    But given how things have turned out, I have no choice but to create a situation that requires intervention.

    “Recently, I investigated Gandhi through the Okhrana. And I discovered something shocking. This is Gandhi’s true face!”

    I snapped my fingers, and the Okhrana appeared.

    I distributed documents about Gandhi, investigated by the Okhrana, to the representatives of each country attending the Roman Treaty Organization meeting.

    Well, I say the Okhrana investigated, but I already knew about Gandhi’s dark side from the future, so I could pretend to have investigated in advance and use it at the Roman Treaty Organization.

    “My, for a pacifist, he’s been doing such obscene things behind the scenes!”

    “Sleeping with young girls? Snemitism? Isn’t that just an excuse to embrace young women?”

    “He even slept with relatives young enough to be his great-granddaughter?”

    “Using women’s jealousy for affairs? What is this? Even same-sex lovers?”

    “For a pacifist, his lower body seems to be quite the emperor!”

    “He let his wife die saying he couldn’t trust British doctors, but then got treatment from British doctors himself?”

    They’re working hard to tear Gandhi down.

    Well, if he had behaved properly, this wouldn’t have happened.

    After all, these are all things he did himself.

    Now, I’ve created more justification to discredit Gandhi and intervene in India.

    We cannot entrust India to such a fraud!

    That’s how it works.

    “Such a man is trying to unify India. As the Tsar of Russia, I’m ashamed that I once tried to support Gandhi. What is a saint, and what is a war hero? I supported this walking contradiction full of lust as an independence activist, and it will be a stain on my life.”

    I shed tears again, enough to wet the desk.

    Churchill, who knows my true intentions, looked as if he’d seen something unbearable, his face crumpled like a piece of paper, but whatever.

    Anyway, this should be enough to force the Roman Treaty to take action.

    They can’t allow a lust-crazed demon to rule India that has just escaped from colonialism.

    “The Roman Treaty Organization must step in now!”

    “Gandhi has been shot by an assailant and his fate is unknown. We can no longer entrust India’s fate to this man. Isn’t forcibly binding those who want independence also a form of imperialism? This cannot be ignored!”

    Now that I’ve laid out plenty of bait, it’s time to declare that we’ll justly divide India.

    “Sikhs, Muslims, and untouchables are hoping for our support. However, intervening in India would break our agreement with America. Therefore, I will resolve this issue with America through the United Nations.”

    The United Nations was established through talks between Lvov and Huey Long during my recent visit to America.

    The permanent members of the Security Council are America and the Roman Treaty Organization. Currently, just these two.

    The original permanent members from history, like Britain, are now grouped under the Roman Treaty.

    In other words, the United Nations is essentially an organization where America and Rome form an alliance for world peace.

    Below them are African nations, Chinese nations, Asian nations, and so on.

    “That’s a good approach.”

    “We will call this the peacekeeping force dispatched to India. Also, I will personally go to India for India’s peace.”

    “Your Majesty will go personally?”

    Yes, I must go. Who else would?

    This is the perfect time for me to step in and bring this to a peaceful conclusion.

    From the beginning, Gandhi ignited conflicts while calling for a unified India.

    Gandhi has essentially dug his own grave.

    Of course, even if Gandhi truly wanted to abolish the caste system, it would be difficult to eliminate something so deeply rooted.

    That’s not my problem.

    “It was I who supported Gandhi, who is too filthy to even mention. If I don’t resolve this myself, wouldn’t I just be turning a blind eye? I will dispatch peacekeeping forces in consultation with America, but this is also my personal matter.”

    And so, the first peacekeeping force deployment was decided.

    I sent a telegram to the American side to resolve the Indian issue, and MacArthur also stepped in to prevent the Roman Treaty Organization from influencing India through this incident.

    “As a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, America will also dispatch peacekeeping forces at the request of the Roman Treaty.”

    Thus, the established peacekeeping forces marched directly into India by land and sea.

    I too headed to India for peacekeeping. To take responsibility for promoting Gandhi, the embodiment of lust, as an independence activist.

    I feel a bit sorry for Gandhi, but then again, why did he give me such justification?

    The truth about Gandhi being a pervert came out in the 1990s.

    He should have controlled his lower body better.

    One or two instances might have been overlooked, but when you constantly struggle to hide your lust and make excuses to satisfy it everywhere, how could it not be exposed?

    Well, there are quite a few people in Korea who respect him for his non-violent civil disobedience, but I was disappointed when I saw his dark side.

    By the standards of this era, Gandhi isn’t the only one doing such things behind closed doors, but it’s enough to discredit him as an independence activist.

    Maybe I should ask Balhae and the Japanese Federation to send peacekeeping forces too.

    Although Balhae succeeded the Korean Empire, it’s still a new nation, and the Japanese Federation is also treated as a new nation under the hero Renya Mutaguchi rather than as a successor to the Japanese Empire.

    They even gave me the Yamato Hotel as a gift, claiming it was evidence of the remnants of Japanese imperialism.

    They’ll probably be eager to join if given the chance.

    The United Nations peacekeeping force deployment.

    These peacekeeping forces weren’t just from Europe and America.

    East Asia’s Balhae Federation and Japanese Federation also contributed peacekeeping forces.

    And as Gandhi’s image shifted from independence activist to a contradictory embodiment of lust, Koreans in Balhae who had respected Gandhi were shocked.

    “I never imagined that great independence activist had such a dark side.”

    “To think we compared him to our independence activists. We must send peacekeeping forces to protect India’s minority ethnic groups from Gandhi!”

    Balhae, which was increasingly filled with national pride as a victorious nation in the war against Japan, not just for independence, also had a strong desire to save India from falling into the same situation.

    The same was true for West Japan.

    “Prime Minister, shouldn’t we also send peacekeeping forces?”

    “We absolutely must send troops, Your Majesty!”

    West Japan, or the Japanese Federation, also needed to improve its image.

    Renya had justified his military uprising with the liberation of China and colonies, portraying himself as a true hero.

    For Renya, sending peacekeeping forces was obviously necessary, and he needed to promote to the international community that “we are not the Japanese Empire but the country of the hero Mutaguchi Renya!”

    As a righteous country with true Yamato and samurai spirit, unlike the barbaric Kanto people who were beaten badly and are now the Kanto Republic, they naturally had to send troops.

    Japan currently had a total population of 40 million after many deaths, with the Japanese Federation at 22 million and the Kanto Republic at 18 million, excluding Ryukyu, Ezo, and others.

    The Japanese Federation, which had recently “gifted” the Yamato Hotel, or rather battleship, to the Tsar of the Russian Federation as a personal villa and received more material support than China, still had orphans and famine everywhere, so they needed to wag their tails at the Roman Treaty.

    Above all, they needed to do their part in the United Nations organization to be considered a proper country.

    So they had to step up. And thus, the Far East peacekeeping forces were dispatched.

    Going to India was actually somewhat problematic.

    Because of the previous abdication incident, Russians were worried that my trip to India might be another attempt to throw away the throne.

    I had to hold what amounted to a press conference to explain why I needed to go to India, and reveal in detail how Gandhi had betrayed us and was trying to oppress people of other religions, minorities, and untouchables by forcing them together, as well as his dirty private life.

    And that I had to take responsibility.

    Goa, once a Portuguese territory in India, was serving as India’s gateway to Western countries.

    I came here separately from the UN peacekeeping forces and comforted and cared for Indian refugees who had fled the suddenly erupted civil war.

    “Ah, she is truly a saint.”

    “She even gave us food.”

    “Long live the peacekeeping forces! Long live Tsar!”

    They did not blame me.

    After all, we are peacekeeping forces, so it’s natural.

    These Indians don’t seem to have the concept of a single ethnicity.

    Well, Korea now has Manchurians, Israel has Jews who settled in Southern Manchuria rather than Northern Manchuria, Russians who fled during the Red-White Civil War, and so on—literally a multi-ethnic country similar to Balhae, which was a multi-ethnic country in the past, so I’m not sure if they’ll have the concept of a single ethnicity in the future, but anyway.

    Although I shouldn’t be doing this as the Tsar now, I personally cared for them like the nurses who looked after soldiers during the World War.

    “Hahaha! It’s been a long time, Your Majesty.”

    “Oh, Patton. I didn’t expect you to lead the American peacekeeping forces.”

    Patton greeted me happily.

    Are you really a peacekeeping force?

    I doubt you’re here to ravage India with your armored units.

    Well, although this isn’t as intense as the Korean War, it’s still a messy war, so he had to come.

    “Hahaha. When this is over, I’m thinking of going to Russia!”

    “Why?”

    Why are you coming again?

    “Because America is boring. It was fun in Russia. Well, I have relatives in Russia too, so it’s not a bad thing.”

    Hmm. Come to think of it, I should warn Patton. History has changed, so he probably won’t go to Germany, but I should tell him in advance.

    “Please don’t think about going to Germany.”

    “Oh. You seem to have seen something about me. I plan to be buried in Russia, my second homeland, so it doesn’t matter.”

    No, I really wish he wouldn’t come, but is that okay?

    I heard Patton also distinguished himself in eliminating the KFC remnants and swept away the few Japanese defense forces with his armored units during Operation Downfall.

    He gained quite a bit of recognition for that.

    After talking with Patton about various things for a while, I went back to caring for the Indians, and the peacekeeping forces began to move in earnest.

    The purpose of the peacekeeping forces was literally to bring peace to India.

    Currently, there was fighting between Gandhi’s Indian provisional government and those who opposed it: Jews, Sikhs, Muslims, untouchables, Punjabis, and Indian groups seeking independence differently from Gandhi’s Indian government.

    Initially, Gandhi was supposed to grant separate independence according to the wishes of the Roman Treaty Organization, as authorized by the Indian Governor-General’s Office, but instead, he tried to forcibly maintain unity using the military that had also been entrusted to him by the Governor-General’s Office.

    Of course, this wasn’t just Gandhi’s doing but also due to pressure from Indians supporting Gandhi, but anyway.

    As a result, India was swept by a bloodbath.

    Above all, without proper military organizations except for the provisional government, resistance would be futile unless the peacekeeping forces intervened.

    “Has Gandhi recovered?” I asked Vlasov, who was dispatched as the commander of the Russian forces that I had joined.

    “He died recently.”

    “Oh my. How sad.”

    It truly is sad.

    For the great Mahatma Gandhi to go like that. It’s pitiful and unfortunate.

    But you know what? It’s all his own doing—though I wonder if he would have been assassinated even if he had listened to me.

    Isn’t he denying the caste system?

    Even during British colonial times, there were people who collaborated with the British. Anyway, Gandhi, who seemed to be trying to reform the caste system, would be disliked by those who didn’t want him to join forces with factions trying to abolish the caste system.

    This would increase the accumulated discontent.

    The pro-caste system factions in the Indian provisional government would try to attack, or rather, fighting would have already broken out by the time I arrived here.

    The Indian provisional government trying to suppress the separatist independence forces probably has no solution either?

    It seems Chandra Bose isn’t able to take the lead, perhaps because we—no, Britain—left India divided.

    India had become a complete mess.
