But having said that, a place that is in a state of semi-starvation at all times will not be troubled by Alan Wilson's little joke. Maybe this is life, and sometimes things like this happen.
The one hundred thousand civil servants in British India, after Prime Minister Attlee came to power, were mentally prepared and ready to cash in the British India they still held in their hands and sell it at a good price.
The top priority facing London at present is nothing more than to deal with the internal situation and the external situation, quickly get out of economic stagnation internally, and maintain the influence of the British Empire externally. Enemies include but are not limited to the Soviet Union, which also includes the United States.
British strategists knew all too well that Britain would suffer a financial crisis as the war ended. Britain was bankrupt. The cost of the war had emptied the British treasury and placed a heavy yoke on the empire's creditors.
But even so, the British government still regarded this as a temporary difficulty: this is the price of victory, and the Americans will definitely help the British pay the bill.
This idea is relatively common within the Conservative Party, but Prime Minister Attlee's Labor cabinet does not fully agree with this idea. Moreover, at the Potsdam Conference, Prime Minister Attlee personally tested Truman's nuclear bomb sharing, but was rejected on the spot, which aggravated the situation.
Despite the distrust of the United States, the Soviet Union was still an enemy, but the United States was also an enemy on another level.
The threat level and scope of the two enemies may be different, so the first post-war government must walk a tightrope carefully, safeguarding the interests of the empire while trying to buy as much time as possible for the recovery of the British Empire.
Compared with Berlin, how to make good use of the British-occupied areas won at the Yalta Conference is more important.
Long before the Battle of Berlin, strategic planners in London had already given up. Britain was obliged to defend Poland in World War II, but now the fate of Poland is no longer the main concern of British policymakers.
British national interests are the central issue. The first is the question of Germany, which remains the lever for the balance of power on the European continent.
That's why at the Potsdam Conference, Alan Wilson did not hesitate to sell Poland to the Soviet Union in a behind-the-scenes operation. Even the new Prime Minister Attlee had no doubt about the betrayal of Poland and acquiesced to it happening.
Since Germany is the lever of balance on the European continent, how to restore Germany's strength to resist the Soviet Union has become extremely important. It is no wonder that London attaches so much importance to the British-occupied areas. To be honest, if Britain were rich, it would be the British version of Marshall
Plans don't have to wait until a few years later.
Old imperialists like Britain and France have proven many times that they are more willing to spend money on war than the United States. Moreover, it is a war as soon as it starts, and it is by no means a security war fought decades later to make money for the sake of publicity.
But now that the war is over, the impoverished national treasury is indeed distressing. Don’t ask, just ask and you won’t regret it. It’s a pity that voters voted with their feet and voted out the heroic Prime Minister who led the British Empire to win World War II.
In fact, Alan Wilson doesn't need to think about it now, and he also knows that London currently has various plans, leading Europe, side by side with the United States, or returning to the tradition of walking a tightrope between Europe and the United States, and continuing to play offshore balance. Various plans are definitely
There is no shortage of supporters.
How to deal with other countries in Europe? Should we continue the policy that has not changed for five hundred years? Or should we go to the end personally and cut off the biggest cake before the United States has adapted to its role as a world hegemon?
Alan Wilson, a civil servant, cannot stop the policies of politicians, but he can try his best to create a good environment for the implementation of certain plans for Britain, which is at a crossroads and has not yet decided which way to go. This is his
It can be done.
The two most clear points at present are the restoration of the British-occupied areas in Germany and the upcoming Brussels Conference, regarding the union between European colonists. He must do these two things now.
Alan Wilson, who was no longer fighting alone, left Berlin and returned to the British-occupied area controlled by the British Empire. Because the Ruhr area was the focus of Allied air raids, the well-known big cities in the British-occupied area were more damaged than Berlin.
Nothing less.
First of all, Alan Wilson had to choose a golden house to hide his beauty and place the sisters Isabella.
"You put us in Bonn? But you are going to Hannover?" Isabella Bokina couldn't believe that this Englishman really wanted to do a good deed and put a beautiful woman who threw himself into his arms in this small city.
Either he is gay or he has a physical problem.
"Men put career first. At this time, both my country and your country need me." Alan Wilson said sternly, "Besides, what's wrong with Bonn? Maybe you will like this place very much in the future."
This is Bonn, the future capital of the Federal Republic of Germany. As the capital of the Federal Republic of Germany, Bonn was also vigorously promoted by the United Kingdom. It would be a pity not to take advantage of it.
Regardless of any country, when a place becomes the capital, it will receive special attention. The most prosperous city in the United States is the Big Apple, New York, but where is the richest city?
The answer is Washington. The per capita output value of Washington is three times more than the US per capita of US$60,000, reaching US$200,000 per capita. This is based on the premise that more than half of the population in Washington is black.
Whether it is fair or unfair, the status of any country's administrative center is far better than that of an economic center. However, medium-sized countries like Britain and France do not have a large territory, and often the economic center and capital are both one city.
.
How could Alan Wilson, an excellent imperial civil servant, forget his mission because of sugar-coated bullets? If he had a choice, he would not even want to go to Potsdam. He should have started digging for gold in the Ruhr area, the essence of Germany.
.
Although the Four-Power Joint Control Committee is located in Berlin, that institution is only a small one. What really has an impact on the British-occupied areas is Britain's own Military Management Committee and the newly established Trade Committee.
On his first night back in the British-occupied area, Alan Wilson lived in Bonn. Because Bonn was a small city, it did not suffer much damage during the war. On the contrary, whether it was Hamburg, Cologne or Essen,
All were severely destroyed.
This is also one of the few cities in the British-occupied area with good security. When night fell, Alan Wilson even had the courage to go out for a walk. Under the control of the British garrison, the environment here was among the current conditions in the entire Germany.
It's an extremely rare safety.
Isabella Pokina holding hands made him feel that choosing Bonn as the place to raise the two sisters was the right choice.
Alan Wilson has not forgotten the logic he instilled in Pokina. I laugh at the barbarity of the Soviet Union and the lack of wisdom in the United States. The fate of Europe still has to be decided by itself.
Of course, this decision is only under the leadership of the British Empire, which can guarantee all the interests of European countries. France cannot be expected to throw away its rifles and sacrifice in vain.
"As long as the Soviet Union doesn't cause trouble in the short term, it will be fine. What Britain needs to be on guard against is the United States." Alan Wilson walked for a while and felt a little tired. Several British soldiers not far away were very disgusted when they saw this scene. Everyone was worried.
As a British person, you can see that someone can pull a fair-skinned and beautiful young German girl, but you have nothing.
There was a hint of melancholy in the eyes of several British soldiers, and they decided to scrimp on food and clothing in the following days, try their luck on the black market of cigarettes, and solve the urgent needs of German women who lacked men.
On the other side, Isabella used all the skills she learned from school on this imperialist liaison officer to establish a long-term intelligence source. Alan Wilson was thinking about whether to use the opportunity of entering the Trade Commission to buy some equipment in Bonn.
Property, laying a nail in the future capital of the Federal Republic of Germany to be prepared for disaster.
And he is not only planning to do this himself, he is also planning to drag down all the civil servants who come to Germany. As the same saying goes, it is better to have fun alone than to have fun with everyone. You need to build personal connections.
Perhaps the backbone of British civil servants twenty years from now will be these foreign-related civil servants who single-handedly pulled Germany out of the quagmire of economic collapse.
That night, when Alan Wilson fell asleep, the door of his room was gently pushed open, and a shadow crept in, and got directly into the quilt.
"What?" There was also a hint of disbelief. Alan Wilson suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked knowingly. He couldn't believe that the beautiful woman took the initiative to throw herself into his arms. He couldn't believe that it would happen to him, and even his voice became sharp.
"Ellen, lead our family to live a good life, and I will be yours from now on." Isabella Bokina twisted her waist, showing off her inner beauty that no one else could see in the dark room.
"Isn't this good!" While speaking, Alan Wilson grabbed the beautiful snake into his arms. There was only heavy breathing in the room, and Isabella Bokina endured the pain and let the other party do it.
for.
The night was extremely long, and it took a long time for the room to regain its calmness.
To be a citizen of imperialism, Alan Wilson woke up in the morning and deeply realized the happiness of the American soldiers stationed in Japan. He originally thought that it was a crime for American soldiers to loose their zippers wherever they went. Now it seems that he still
Didn't understand the essence of imperialism.
I am not against imperialism, what I am against is that I am not imperialist! He now has a profound understanding of this sentence.
It felt so good to just pull up my pants and leave. With a verbal apology, Alan Wilson said that he was going to the British Military Management Committee in Bonn to say hello and let the Heilman family live here without being disturbed, and then left.
room.
After Alan Wilson left, Anna tiptoed in and looked at Isabella Pokina, whose delicate body was hidden under the quilt, and called softly, "Pokina!"
Isabella Pokina suddenly sat up, regardless of her upper body being exposed, her eyes were fixed on her nominal sister, and she gritted her silver teeth and said, "What did the school teach you?"
Before he finished speaking, he felt a tingling sensation in his lower body. He frowned slightly and said, "We must pay attention to the nature of our work."
