in the indian mutiny what machinery was used in the war to fight?
The idea that the Great Mutiny was a war of liberation is bullocks. There was no national movement in those days. India didn't exit. India was a continent with semi independent states on it. None wanted to serve under the other. It was much more than a mutiny, but that was simply because it was a religious conflict, in which both Hindus and Muslims fought together. You have to be REALLY incompetent to get that done, but the British managed it! The religious problem was the introduction of a new bullet. It was greased with a mixture of cow's fat and pig's fat. The cartridge had to be bitten open by the user. Very nicely infuriating both muslims and Hindus. -- this is sarcasm, for sensible toes
Canon, musket and the sabre..typical machinery for the 1850's.
