Well, Tullius says that he asked Mede several times for a larger battalion, but the biggest part of the Legion is stationed at the Gold Coast to prepare for an attack from the Thalmor. So, if Skyrim would become independent and if the Empire would suddenly destroy the Thalmor and reclaim the Summerset Isles, I'm sure that they would send an extremely big army to Skyrim to reclaim it.
