As happened in the past, if a violent approach would have been taken, the English king could easily have sent soldiers and special troops to quickly ending with any fight or rebellion. So Gandhi really knew that a war was not a real option and many Indians could have died on the battlefield with not a real chance of winning the war.
So the nonviolent approach was the smartest decision he could have made.
