The British had already planned to annex lands of the subcontinent; the lands and territorries by using the EIC (East India Company) as their stronghold. Britain had recently gone through the industrial revolution *Search it up if you don't know what that was* and had advanced into much modern and lethal weaponry and technology than the Indians. Their soldiers were much more discliplined and organised (they had worked out their military startegies and formations) and could win battles by using their HEAD e.g Battle if Buxar, Battle of Plassey etc. As i just told you; the bristish already planned to annex lands......Charles Napier *search him up* is a clear example of how the British caught hold of territories like Sindh, Balochistan, and Punjab in 1809. He provoked the Amirs of Sindh to react to their rule, and so the British had an excuse to annex.
