Myanmar's currency reform plan will naturally be passed as long as people like Aung San support it.
This is an achievement he achieved just three days after arriving in Myanmar, which is certainly worthy of joy.
The most fundamental reason is that Aung San and others were not clean during World War II. He used both soft and hard tactics, saying that he would tear off the ugly face of imperialism at any time to deal with Myanmar.
In fact, Alan Wilson would not do anything to Aung San. Since Aung San had only gained a false reputation due to his assassination in history, he had to find a way to let Aung San live.
Anyway, he has seen the future where Aung San dies. The British Empire has not benefited much, so let's try another possibility.
Burgess was also very surprised to have such smooth support from Aung San and others, so he invited Alan Wilson to sit down and talk about how to deal with Myanmar.
The butler brought a few bottles of beer. Burgess sat opposite Alan Wilson, stroking a bottle of cold beer with his two small hands.
His forehead was sweating, and he looked unhappy, but he was no longer angry. No matter when, he was always angry and stubborn, but his anger dissipated quickly, and there was no need to apologize for it.
.
Burgess was annoyed that Alan Wilson was taking the lead and might intensify the situation in Burma, but now he must admit that the other party made the right bet and brought the Burmese people who have always pursued independence into submission.
Alan Wilson understands this. The second generation of rich people are not bad in nature, they are just a little self-centered.
"It's hard to imagine that they supported currency reform so easily. I thought it would take some effort." Burgess took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Alan Wilson and said rather strangely, "Maybe my judgment was wrong.
"
"Actually, you just need to know that even after the trauma of the war, the colonies still have fewer cards than the British Empire." Alan Wilson took a sip of Myanmar's local beer, which was not as hard to swallow as expected, and continued.
, "People like Aung San have no position, and they may not even be united. When Myanmar becomes independent, there may be internal strife immediately. Who can say for sure."
In history, the assassination of Aung San was not necessarily done by the British. Maybe it was Myanmar itself killing itself. This is not a new thing. We can share adversity but not wealth. There are too many similar examples in history.
.
"In many places, we are disrespected because we are too soft on them. The only effective policy is to treat them like dirt. This is a critical moment, and we must not let go of the prestige we can gain. Everyone must
Come together and say together, we are the masters and you are the beggars."
Alan Wilson sighed in his heart, the Cambridge Five still had a lot to learn when working in the colonies.
But it doesn't matter. If there are many opportunities, he will definitely be able to rescue these heroes of the empire from the clutches of the Soviets, and he will continue to work hard for this goal.
"Allen was too harsh on these colonies. In fact, what they pursued was not that excessive." Burgess couldn't help but retort after hearing the outright imperialist remarks.
"My request is not excessive. I just want to restore the mainland to the way it was in peacetime as soon as possible. But currently, the United States is pressing for debts abroad, and the Soviet army is pressing down on the border in Europe. What does the empire have now? These are the only colonies that can be cashed out. They
It's not that you can't be independent, but you have to pay a certain price. Independence is not something you pray for. There are gains and losses. Those who pursue independence should understand this truth."
Regardless of whether Burgess's belief is great or not, Alan Wilson grasped one point, we must let the native recovery talk about other things, and don't be a fool who is covered in lice and scratches for others.
"But I still want to express my gratitude to you. Without your blackmail, it might not have been so smooth." Burgess told the truth. According to his method, he would discuss it for a year and a half, and then prepare for a few months. Myanmar might be independent.
Nothing can be done.
"This credit belongs to you, I just came here to visit my friends here." By the way, he created evidence that the Andaman Islands himself was not present, but Alan Wilson did not say the second half.
Alan Wilson also admitted that he wanted to see these idealists forced to serve the British Empire. There were many colonies in the British Empire, and they could always arrange for these members of the Cambridge Five.
Alan Wilson cannot be the only one who betrays the revolution; these thick-browed Cambridge Five must also betray the revolution.
If we don't find something to do for these people, they might lure the Soviet Red Army here...
"Burgess, some voices in the country believe that Britain will come back, but in my opinion, once the colonies secede, they will never come back, so I will use all means to liquidate the assets of the British Empire and block the mainland.
This may be the difference between you and me." Alan Wilson changed the subject and said, "I have already sent a telegram to the mainland, and London will ask some economists to come over.
We should return immediately to help Myanmar reform its currency, after all, not many people are afraid of airplanes."
"Perhaps you think that those who adopt soft measures to deal with the colonies are cowards?" Burgess's words were ironic, roundabout and said that Alan Wilson was a cold-blooded person.
"That's really what I think, but I won't say it publicly." Alan Wilson smiled with a hint of treachery, "I dare not say that I know everything about the ethnic groups in the Asian colonies, but I can also find it from history.
Their scruples came out, so as soon as I proposed to send the Burmese who cooperated with the Japanese army to China, Aung San and the others immediately relented. China is a great comrade-in-arms of the Allied Powers, so it is not too much to borrow their potential strength, right?"
Looking at Myanmar's post-independence history, it can be said that even when the United States tried its best to win over China, Myanmar did not adopt a hostile attitude towards China, and of course it was not very close. After all, the United States was indeed too strong after World War II.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! You must know that the United States was really powerful in the Cold War. In Indonesia, it wiped out the world's third-largest Communist Party of Indonesia in one action, and destroyed pro-Soviet and pro-China Indonesia overnight.
It has become one's own bridgehead, and its clever methods can only be feared.
In order to build a complete encirclement, the United States also tried hard to win over Myanmar, but Myanmar finally restrained itself and did not dance with the whip of the United States.
He knows the deep-seated concerns of these Southeast Asian countries. Of course, Myanmar's situation is quite special, because it is also adjacent to India, so it also has great concerns about India. A two-pronged approach, playing the China card and the India card continuously, Aung San and those people will not be able to
Don't think about it carefully.
In any case, the result is good. Now it depends on how much benefit the British Empire can get from the currency reform. The local finances may be a little more comfortable.
By the time it was afternoon, the heat was unbearable. Everyone in the room had flat, shiny beads of sweat on their faces, as well as on their forearms. On the back of Burgess's coat, sweat stains became increasingly visible.
It's getting bigger. The dazzling light from outside somehow shines through the window with green bamboo curtains, making people's eyes hurt and their minds dizzy.
It was enough to drink to this extent. Alan Wilson decisively ended his drunken behavior. Considering Burgess's orientation, he was really afraid that he drank too much. It was unacceptable for Burgess to do something to him.
Things to avoid.
In the end, Alan Wilson did not stay in Yangon for long. On the one hand, Myanmar's political affairs had nothing to do with him. On the other hand, a telegram was sent from Hyderabad and Vivien Leigh had already set off to return.
Vivien Leigh agreed to the invitation of ABC to shoot a documentary. All the expenses incurred by this documentary will be borne by the other party. Not only that, but there is also a performance fee of US$30,000. This is not all.
The total performance fee was US$100,000, including Hedy Lamarr, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman, who came to British India with them.
"What is this? Hollywood attacking British India?" Maybe the Burmese beer was strong enough. Alan Wilson was still groggy when he received the telegram. He didn't understand that Vivien Leigh would come back as soon as she came back. Why did she bring so many people with her? To establish
Image of Americans in British India?
But then, Alan Wilson sobered up, and the six members of the Golden Zodiac were all big stars! Even if you look at them, they would be bragging rights for future political careers.
Unlike Ellen Wilson, these female celebrities have no fear of airplanes. They boarded the plane from Los Angeles to Hawaii, then to Manila, and landed in New Delhi after a series of transitions.
Alan Wilson calculated the time and went directly to the Government House of Burma to say goodbye to Burgess.
"Going back in such a hurry?" Burgess seemed to remember that Alan Wilson said that there was nothing much going on recently.
"We are all fighting for the British Empire. We cannot say that we are in a hurry. We can only say that it is an arrangement of fate." Alan Wilson said calmly, "Thank you Burgess for your hospitality these days. I will leave the matter of Myanmar's currency reform to you."
If you need help with anything, just call me and don’t be polite.”
"When are you leaving?" Burgess asked instinctively as he was still digesting Alan Wilson's words.
"Now!" When Alan Wilson said this, he suddenly slapped his head and said, "The district magistrate named Wu Dinglun is actually a person who can be relied on. He has a very vivid mind and should be promoted. The most important thing is
, which can balance the Burmese people.”
"Okay, I'll pay attention." Now? Burgess nodded blankly before coming back to his senses. Are you leaving now?
"Then get in touch when you have time." Alan Wilson waved his hand and left the Governor's Palace of Myanmar in a hurry. If others can fly and he can take a boat, he may not be able to do it faster than Vivien Leigh. Only by rushing back to New Delhi ahead of others can he show his talent.
