Chapter 139 Ready to go

"Don't let me bleed and cry!" Alan Wilson murmured into Isabella Bokina's ear, "My dear, I will serve you well tonight."

In order to realize his ambition of killing two birds with one stone, Alan Wilson felt that now was not the time to be stingy with physical strength. Age gave Alan Wilson expanded capital, and being a member of the British Occupied Zone gave him spiritual satisfaction.

Is this the treatment of a victorious country? Just like when the US military occupied Japan and fought tooth and nail for the country for many years, could it be that after landing, it was just to show that the human beacon had no harm to you?

Even if his body is at its peak, he cannot perform physical labor all night. Perhaps because of the approval he received from Isabella Bokina, Alan Wilson is very energetic today.

In my spare time, I talked with Isabella Pokina about the issue of Japan’s surrender. “It is estimated that now that the Americans have nuclear bombs in their hands, they will not let the remaining Japanese territories fall into the hands of the Soviets. The Soviet Union’s maritime

The strength is still a bit weak. Without considering nuclear bombs, only the Soviet Army and the British Empire's Navy are qualified to negotiate terms with the Americans, but this is fine."

"Are the Soviets so powerful? We Germany almost captured Moscow." Isabella Bokina asked without leaving a trace while drawing circles on Alan Wilson's chest with her fingertips.

"You, Germany, are far behind. This is not a problem that Moscow can solve at all." Alan Wilson thought that the dragoons were unconvinced, but that was right. If Germany became a victorious country, the two young dragoons today would still use

Taking advantage of yourself?

Maybe it was the Germans who were showing off their power in Britain, and they were just considering the national sentiments of women. Ellen Wilson did not say what was in her heart, but just said that Germany was not as close to victory as some people imagined.

Away from this topic, Alan Wilson talked about his thoughts on the status of Hokkaido, saying that it was an agricultural production area of ​​Japan. If it fell into the hands of the Soviet Union, Japan's shortcomings would become even more obvious. Honshu Island was occupied by the US military.

Japan is destined to be difficult.

In fact, the situation in Germany is similar, but it is not as obvious as that in Japan. Japan, which lost Hokkaido in terms of area, is the same as the Federal Republic of Germany that later merged with the occupied territories of Britain, the United States and France, with an area of ​​more than 200,000 square kilometers.

Japan and Germany in this time and space have successfully lost weight, and unlike the Federal Republic of Germany, Germany's industrial base and resources are all in one place. Japan's meager resources still have a large share in Hokkaido.

In this way, when the United States carries out industrial transfer, the Japanese must work harder than in history and pay a lot of additional hidden costs. They need to work harder to achieve the rise in history.

Hokkaido is rich in mineral resources. The island has Japan's largest coal mine reserve, and its coal reserves and output account for more than half of Japan. Already scarce oil resources are also in Hokkaido, and Hokkaido is also an important producer of sulfur in Japan.

With Hokkaido, Japan theoretically still has some resources. Without Hokkaido, Japan would theoretically have none. For many resources such as grain, coal, sulfur, etc., the share of imports will only further increase.

Japan's shortcomings will become more serious, and the consequent result is that Americans will feel more relaxed when they feel they have fattened the pigs and want to kill them. Even if Japan wants to rise, it will have to work harder.

However, this is not necessarily a bad thing for the British Empire. After the registration of British India, British Malaya may be able to regain some competitive advantages and share some dividends from industrial transfer.

Now the military and political chiefs of British India are working hard for this goal. General Mountbatten, who has an eye on the top, cannot take away Emperor Mai's halo as the protagonist when it comes to Japan's surrender.

However, under the advice of Lord Barron, they soon found a target to threaten, Thailand, which had an ambiguous relationship with Japan. British India had already sent a negotiation team to Bangkok, and decided to negotiate for Thailand's disgraceful role during the war.

A constructive conversation.

From the perspective of British India, Thailand was a complete slave state of Japan. Even if it was not a relationship between Germany and Austria, it was a relationship between Finland and Germany. Even Finland had to cede territory to the Soviet Union. It was unreasonable for Thailand to want to retreat unscathed.

Simply returning the land acquired from British and French colonies during the war was far from enough. It had no disciplinary effect at all. When they set out, the British delegation had already made it clear that they must get the Kra Isthmus.

The southern section of Thailand's land is between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, with the narrowest point being only more than ten kilometers. To the south is the Strait of Malacca, known as the "maritime crossroads". Today, nearly a quarter of the world's free trade passes through the Strait of Malacca.

The Strait is a well-deserved golden waterway.

The reason why Thailand became independent was entirely due to the mercy of Britain and France. Instead of being grateful, Thailand supported Japan during the war, causing damage to the interests of the British Empire.

With the United States already considering Japan as a target, the British Empire decisively changed its target and set its next target on Thailand. It had prepared a series of harsh conditions, and its final target was the Kra Isthmus.

The British delegation that arrived in Bangkok received a telegram of concern from Lord Barron before they even started blackmailing.

Sir Barron, who had received Alan Wilson's telegram, had learned that outstanding civil servants in British India had prepared a share of the tobacco revenue for himself, and then received the support of the chief executives of the seventeen provinces of British India who also received a share of the tobacco revenue.

below, expressing concern about the Thai government's role in World War II.

In this matter, we can also borrow strength from France, which has returned to Asia. During the war, while France was busy in Europe, Thailand requested the return of Thailand's original territory to France, and subsequently submitted a request to France.

The memorandum stated that if the French colonies in Southeast Asia were disintegrated, Thailand could annex Laos and Cambodia.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, these requests were rejected by France. The troops on both sides continued to provoke and friction at the border, and eventually fought.

I believe that the French, who are holding back their energy, have not forgotten the scene of being humiliated by Thailand during the war. Does even Thailand dare to show martial virtue in front of France?

In addition to France, Britain could also borrow power from a major Asian country. During the war, the Thai army also attacked its northern neighbor.

The British delegation that arrived in Bangkok directly stated after meeting representatives of the Thai government that the imperial army, dominated by Indians, was ready to punish Thailand at any time for its provocations and conflicts with Britain, France, and China during the war.

At the same time, he said that even Americans cannot excuse Thailand's crimes at this time. This is not just a problem for one country in the British Empire, but involves three important members of the Allied Powers.

Of course, Alan Wilson was also trying his best to help his colleagues in British India. He suggested in the telegram to target the royal family. He had some knowledge of Thailand and also knew that Thailand had already embraced the Americans.

But now the British are moving very quickly, and the surrender of many places in Southeast Asia has not yet ended. The Americans cannot cause trouble at this time to the British and France, whose vanguard troops have already arrived in Asia.

Furthermore, the Thai people put the blame on the military, but Alan Wilson knew that the real threat was to the Thai royal family. There is public opinion in Thailand that Thailand will die, and using this to threaten the Thai royal family may have unexpected effects.

There is a relatively famous legend circulating in Thailand. This legend comes from a curse. Its content states that the king of Thailand will not be able to pass on to the throne for ten generations, which means that the Chakri dynasty will end before the tenth generation.

The British delegation arrived directly in Bangkok. At the same time, it was also known to the Americans in Bangkok. It was quickly reported to the top brass of the US military and also reported to Washington. The American diplomats in Bangkok did not take any action for the time being.

We are ready to stand aside and see what the purpose of the British is. To completely occupy Thailand and make Thailand become another British colony, or a colony divided between Britain and France, will definitely be resisted by the United States.

But the Americans also know that this time the British are coming fiercely, and they seem to have been prepared. It is not wise to conflict with the British for the time being, and the surrender ceremonies in many places in Southeast Asia have not yet ended.

Due to various factors, the American diplomats in Bangkok have temporarily chosen to wait and see, waiting for subsequent developments.

The news that came next made the diplomats of the U.S. Embassy frown slightly. The British, in the name of Britain, France, China, and the three important members of the Allies, asked Thailand to explain its hostile behavior towards the Allies during the war.

All over Bangkok.

Everyone in Thailand hopes that the United States can mediate at this time, but the U.S. Embassy is sending a telegram.

Because time is too sensitive, the British, who have not benefited from Japan, may not give up. Moreover, it also involves two other countries, and they need to wait for a call back from Washington.

In order to obtain the Kra Isthmus, Alan Wilson has tried his best. In Bonn, he received a telegram from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The telegram was sent by Alexander Cadogan, indicating that the European Economic Renewal Conference to be held in Brussels has been scheduled for September 10.

It was held on the 4th, allowing Alan Wilson to prepare himself and arrive in Brussels at his own time.

The nominal European Economic Renewal Conference was just a meeting of a group of European colonial countries to unanimously discuss countermeasures after the war. Alan Wilson knew very well that this was better than each colonial country fighting alone.

A lot of things can be said at a meeting.

Alan Wilson, who had already determined the next phase of the work, was ready to set out again, and said to Isabella Pokina, "How about it, has Anna agreed?"
