Shocked by Alan Wilson's straightforward approach, Farouk I pondered for a long time and blurted out, "Can Britain return the canal to Egypt immediately?"

"No! This may break out a war, so the UK is not willing to see changes in the political situation in Egypt." Alan Wilson refused, "We do not want to see an important monarchy be overthrown, because past experience shows that

Governments that emerge as revolutionaries will always do some very radical things. It is not good for both countries. What I am talking about is the Soviet Union. The money owed to Britain and France was not repaid, and the Soviet Union also suffered a long-term blockade. Now it is suffering from

Hostility is also related to the original behavior."

This behavior can be said to have many aspects. For Farouk I, the fate of Nicholas II's family was one of them, so he could understand the psychology of helping this time.

"Then what else can you say? The hostility among the Egyptian people may exist for a long time. It's not that I don't know the problem, but you Britain won't give it. That's the problem." Farouk I looked at the palace maid in the distance, feeling salty.

Indifferent way.

"We don't want to see changes in Egypt's political situation, so on the premise of not damaging the control of the Suez Canal, I have a way to temporarily divert attention. Of course, this requires the understanding of His Majesty the King and the cooperation of the British government in putting on a show."

Alan Wilson changed the topic, "In fact, the Suez Canal in the hands of Britain and France is conducive to the balance of the world. If His Majesty the King thinks that this has nothing to do with Egypt, then because of this canal and the oil resources in the Middle East, we will do our best to help

Arabs, against Israel, confrontation helps monarchs win popular support."

"The biggest benefit is that it can stabilize the status of monarchs in various countries!"

"So your solution is to build a dam?" Farouk I frowned, "in exchange for Egypt not forcibly taking back control?"

"Although this is true, it would be meaningless to put it too bluntly." Alan Wilson did not deny Farouk I's statement. "Of course, I believe that the Kingdom of Egypt has relevant talents and will use favorable public opinion to bring this matter to Egypt."

The people accept it. My idea is to do this slowly to give the Egyptians hope and give the British time at the same time."

"Mr. Allen, you can tell me directly, I will seriously consider it." Faruk I made a gesture of invitation and listened attentively.

As long as Farouk I does not object, this matter is completely negotiable. What Alan Wilson means is that Farouk I will use one year to first stabilize his position, and then propose to Britain to take back control of the Suez Canal.

Britain and France would definitely oppose it for the first time. Then after a long period of negotiation and struggle, King Farouk I proposed the construction of the Aswan Dam and asked Britain and France to provide support in exchange for not temporarily taking back control of the Suez Canal.

.

Alan Wilson remembered that the Aswan Dam took ten years to complete. This project took so long that it gave the UK a long time to consider.

So the recovery of the Suez Canal will have to wait at least until the Aswan Dam is completed. After the completion of the negotiations between Egypt, Britain and France, it is not too much to waste a few more years. At a glance, the time has already reached the mid-1970s.

By that time, Alan Wilson believed that the outcome of whether to maintain the world empire framework or to shrink it has already been determined, and the situation should be clear by then.

The best outcome is that Britain and France agree to return control of the Suez Canal to Egypt. The worst outcome may still have to be returned, and it may not even be very pleasant, but at that time, Britain and France should not make a decision to go to war over control of the canal.

In this way, Farouk I can use the electrification brought about by the Aswan Dam project to pretend that Ali Pasha is alive. Britain and France can also exit in a dignified way. This is beneficial to both parties!

Furthermore, with Egypt's current economic strength, is it necessary to seek support from foreign capital? The UK can provide this kind of support. After all, it is a matter of making money, and it can also stabilize the status of the pound. The loan provided by the UK must be in pounds.

Maybe there will be industrial support from British Malaya, which can also promote the export of Malaya's industrial products. If generators and high-end machines are not enough, steel and cement can always be provided.

The British had already proven their reliability in front of Farouk I with this help.

The bloodstains on the streets of Cairo were still wet, and King Farouk I, who was frightened and angry, finally agreed after hearing this method that could yield real benefits.

Alan Wilson has no reason not to trust a king who makes a promise. At least a king is always more trustworthy than a politician's promise.

At this point, Alan Wilson felt lonely as he drew his sword and looked around to see who was his opponent in the world.

This patrol should be regarded as a successful completion of the mission, killing a pan-African independent leader, resolving Iran's oil disputes, and helping Farouk I eliminate the Free Officers Organization.

Alan Wilson, who accepted the Whitehall mission this time, can be said to have secured numerous export markets for Malaya by the way. Britain opened an opening for Malaya's exports in Europe, and at the same time, the remaining colonies and protectorates were also guided

.

Judging from the population of British Malaya, this market is no smaller than the market opened by the United States to Japanese exports. After all, the population of Malaya is not comparable to that of Japan.

At the end of this inspection, Alan Wilson can say with a clear conscience that he has given Malaya the greatest convenience under an order that the British can still control, and he has become worthy of his position as commissioner.

What's left is the issue of competition with Japan. He can't help with this problem. He can only hope that the Chinese are not lazier than Japanese social animals. If they can step on it, they can keep pace. If they can't, they should keep pace.

Japan is a country that has a clear mind about what it has done, but it just pretends to be confused on the surface. And what is certain is that whether it is the Wild Goose Array or the Quadruple Alliance of the United States, Japan, Australia, and India first proposed by Japan in the 21st century.

It can be easily seen that Japan has always had great malice towards China. This naturally has nothing to do with Alan Wilson, a British man, but his idea of ​​​​seeking benefits for Britain naturally cannot fall on a country with American troops stationed.

At this time, the colonies under its jurisdiction are more trustworthy, and anti-Japanese resistance is an inevitable choice.

Alan Wilson, who received the guarantee from King Farouk I, returned to London on a special plane that turned back again. As for what he had to talk about with Nkrumah before? What else could he talk about when the people were gone?

Davis' job on the Gold Coast can't be combined with another trip to British West Africa, right? He's been very busy and his swinging stick is getting rusty.

If Alan Wilson had not wanted to get rid of this fool, his wife, who was already pregnant, would not have left London and went to Paris to help. At this time, Pamela Mountbatten had returned to London and was ready to recuperate for two months.

Headed to live in Western Australia after the weather in London turned sour.

One day later, Alan Wilson, who had drawn his sword and looked around without any opponents, had returned to London. He did not even stop in Paris, although as a man, he should be obliged to do so.

First, he went to Whitehall to submit a report. He talked about his understanding of the Iran negotiations and also reported on the recent coup of the Free Officers Organization in Egypt. This cannot be concealed. Even if he did not say it, the British army in Cyprus would report it.

But this unauthorized action was directly forgiven by Norman Brooke because of the success of the result.

"By the way, Alan, after your term as Commissioner of Malaya ends, are you willing to take charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? Do Sir Ismay's current job." Norman Brooke smiled and said, "I think highly of you."

road.

Alan Wilson certainly received the proper signal of progress, and directly expressed a positive response to the care of the civil servant leader, and then also mentioned his own difficulties, "The work in Malaya has not yet been on the right track. Of course I am very

I am willing to return to my homeland immediately, but this is always uneasy."

"No problem, I also expect you to make greater achievements." Norman Brooke nodded with satisfaction, "You have worked hard these past few months, take a good rest, otherwise Pamela may make things difficult for me, an old man who is inconsiderate.

.”

"Sir Norman, you are in your prime, but you have nothing to do with the word old." Alan Wilson exclaimed, "Thank you Sir for your recognition, then I will leave first."

Regarding the supplementary lessons for Faruk I, there were only two people at the time, and Grace, the only one who knew the inside story, had returned to Northern Rhodesia.

Alan Wilson did not report it. After all, this matter was somewhat suspected of poaching the British Empire. Although he was essentially thinking about the British, it was something that he could not say openly.

Pamela Mountbatten is at the Emerald House Manor in Hoxon. Because Alan Wilson brought back some cuneiform tablets for collection, Pamela Mountbatten put these historical relics in the Emerald House for collection. She also went there

Hoxon.

When Alan Wilson felt this, Princess Margaret was also there. They were both very happy to see Alan Wilson back after having been on tour for several months.

Alan Wilson, who was still thinking about slapping his face with a stick when he saw his wife, proved with practical actions that he would never get rid of the habit of bragging in front of women in his life. The tricks of the Dragoon Sisters were simply tailor-made for him.

.

Talking about the contribution made by this tour to the empire, including but not limited to the achievements in Egypt, Iran and the Gold Coast, Alan Wilson put his hands on his waist and sounded awesome.

"It's really hard work!" Pamela Mountbatten knew that her husband's final destination was the Iranian oil dispute, which could be regarded as eliminating the hidden danger for her. "By the way, do you want to see the clay tablets you brought back? I put it on the emerald

The house is closed, go get the key."

With that said, Pamela Mountbatten got up and went upstairs. Princess Margaret moved her buttocks and sat next to Alan Wilson.

Alan Wilson was wary and stared straight at his sister-in-law. Just as he was about to speak, the princess had already approached her with an admiring look on her face, leaving her warm red lips.
