"Everyone, the imperial army fought hard in India for several months, and finally defeated the British and the British Indian army loyal to the British. However, the imperial army also paid a great price, with more than 100,000 casualties. The consumption of combat materials was even greater. There are countless. The empire has just finished the world war, and the wounds have not been healed. Therefore, the Indian war has made the empire almost overwhelmed. The empire distributes the land of India to the states, and hopes that the states can do what they can Help the empire get through this time!" Bi Luo said.

Of course, there is a lot of water in his words. Although the Imperial Army faced an enemy dozens of times larger than itself in India, it did not fight very hard. Naturally, there were no heavy casualties. The reason for saying that is to make these land lords pay for it in a legitimate way.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, the empire has suffered heavy losses in fighting the evil British for the future of India. We are deeply grateful. For this reason, Hyderabad is willing to provide help to the empire!" Mir Osman Ali Khan said first.

The other sovereigns were not fools either, and expressed their opinions one after another. They also already know that the allocation of those lands is linked to the donated military expenditures. In other words, in order to obtain better land, one must contribute the wealth accumulated by one's family for countless years. Although, it made them very distressed. However, no one refused. They all know that compared with those wealth, the land is undoubtedly the root. As long as there is land and population, more wealth can be accumulated soon.

"Very well, I am very satisfied with everyone's performance. I believe His Majesty the Emperor will also be very satisfied. We will hold this matter tomorrow." Prime Minister Bilo said. In order to extract as much wealth as possible from these landowners, the German government has figured out a way.

"Everyone, there is something I need to tell you. Among the land allocated to the states, the three cities of Delhi, Mumbai and Calcutta are not included. These three cities will be directly ruled by the empire!" Prime Minister Biluo continued.

Germany's willingness to allocate India's land to those land owners does not mean that Germany will ignore India. Leaving these three largest cities can also be regarded as the stronghold of the empire in India. The empire's garrison in India will also be mainly stationed in these three cities. This is not only to maintain the stability of India, but also to deter those sovereigns.

The complexions of many landlords couldn't help but change. For Delhi, Mumbai and Calcutta, they are also salivating. After all, these three cities are the largest cities in India and also the wealthiest. If they can hold these cities in their own hands, this will greatly increase their strength. However, since Germany has already spoken, they have to obey. In the face of a powerful Germany, they have no right to resist at all.

These three cities will also become Germany's stronghold in India. Geographically, these three cities are located in the north, west and east of India respectively, forming a triangle. Once India discovers a change, the German army can set off from these three cities to suppress and ensure the stability of Germany's rule in India.

"In addition, the Imperial Navy will also build some military ports in India. The specific location has not yet been determined. When the Navy is determined, it will be notified." Prime Minister Billow said.

After all, the home port of the Imperial Navy's Indian Ocean Fleet is temporarily planned to be established in India. As for Diego Garcia, the military base of later American imperialists, Germany has no plans to build it yet.

None of the other sovereigns objected to this. They knew that there was no room for bargaining on the issue of the garrison. Even if the German government allocates those lands to the states, it does not mean that it is really their territory. As long as Germany is willing, those lands can still be recovered. Therefore, it is impossible for them to violate the orders of the German government.

"In the future, India will be ruled by various states. However, as India is a colony of the empire, the empire must earn a certain amount of income from Indian activities every year. That is to say, the empire must obtain a part of the taxes of each state. In view of the taxation The ratio is the power of each state. The empire will not interfere. Therefore, in order to ensure the interests of the empire, the empire needs to set a certain amount." Prime Minister Bilo continued.

When it was heard that Germany would continue to gain benefits from India, the rulers of the various states were not surprised. After all, when the British ruled India before, they also took a lot of wealth from India every year. Germans and British, though somewhat different. But in essence, it is also the same. However, these land lords don't care. Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep. The Germans want benefits, they can directly pay taxes to those untouchables, and pass everything on to those untouchables. Even, they can get more benefits from it. After all, Germany will not interfere with the taxation of the states.

"This year the empire will not receive taxes from India, but starting next year, the empire will receive 2 billion marks in taxes from India every year. After that, the empire will negotiate with the states every five years. The proportion of the state in this tax will be determined by the land area, population and resource status of the state. Biluo said.

Such a distribution method is undoubtedly fair. Therefore, the land lords did not have any objections to this.

Afterwards, Mir Osman Ali Khan and other larger state lords proposed that the Kaiser be crowned emperor of India, which was naturally recognized by other state lords. It can be said that Qin Tian also served as the emperor of India, there is no accident.

The next day, a meeting to donate military expenses was held. The Minister of Finance of the Empire announced the rules of donations to the land lords. And issue a form for each land lord, and each state lord fills in the amount of the military expenditure donated by himself. During this period, it must be kept secret to avoid letting other sovereigns know. Then, the amount of military expenditure donated by each state will be announced. The state with the largest amount of donation has the right to choose first when allocating land in India. That is to say, the state with the most donations will be selected first, and so on.

In this way, the faces of the sovereigns of the various states changed drastically. Originally they thought it was a bid. That would cost them a lot of money, of course. However, that's to be expected. However, this kind of donation made them have to use all their power! Otherwise, it may be cheaper for others.
