Nalapani Bro 
i read your link but i stand firm on my belief. As you know the treaty was commenced on 4th march 1816 right? below is the quote from the link
 "Serving the crown
One other significant outcome of the war is briefly but accurately covered. On 14 April, as part of the actions around Malaun, Lieutenant Peter Lawtie, Ochterlony’s aide-de-camp and field engineer, led a volunteer body of deserters and prisoners from the Gorkha army into action against their former masters. They immediately impressed. Even before this first use, Ochterlony had adopted them as very much his own. After the conflict, he masterminded the recruitment of some 4700 men of Gorkha’s western army into British service as an irregular corps. The best estimate (from A P Coleman A Special Corps) is that about 1500 of these were Chhetri, Gurung and Magar soldiers from the Gorkha heartland. The rest were hillmen of Kumaon, Garhwal and Sirmur."
As i mentioned earlier when these people were recruited they were already under British territory.
Maybe you have all those generation in army but I have too. 
You talk about Tondons as if they were not the influence in the Nepalese Army history. may be for you so called upper class chhetries. But bro if it wasn't tondon's command dhir shamsher couldn't have controlled the effect that happened during kot parbha. ever heard about families being exiled out of Nepal( Kathmandu). Danda kataune after Bir Shamsher came to power. maybe right now with in your family they are not but they were one of the influence family till Dhir shamsher died. and after Ranauddip assassination. even their family were forced to exile from kathmandu.
Another thing ok after shamsher were in power maybe you might know the history as you claim you are still linked to Nepalse Army let me ask you some question please do let me know your level of knowledge
Let's start with Keishe Shamsher. He humiliated Colonel  Chandra Jung Thapa. Do you know the reason.

Baber Jung Rana did something in the history can you describe it?
who was bishnu mani acharya dixit? what was his role in Nepal? he created a controversy doing something that has been even regretted by today's historians, what was that?
Can you tell me what had happened when king surendra went to meet his father ex King in Bhaktapur Durbar at Dashain?
