text_A: Between 1853 and 1862, there were a number of uprisings against the Brooke government but all were mostly contained with the aid of local tribes. To guard against future uprisings, a series of forts were constructed to protect Kuching, including Fort Margherita, completed in 1871. By that time Brooke's level of control of Sarawak meant that such defences were not only warranted, but also, in an abundance of caution, infantry reinforcements were to be brought in from other forts that were now viewed as largely unnecessary .
text_B: Does it sound like Brooke's next step, resources permitting, would be to build more forts or other structural emplacements?
NO.
