Chapter 49 The Moderate Diplomat

The situation in Vienna is different from that in Berlin. In Berlin, the Soviet Union basically occupies the eastern half of Berlin, and the United States, Britain and France occupy the western half. The situation in Vienna is more complicated. The Soviet Union is not only stationed in the east of Vienna, but also includes the western suburbs of Vienna. It can be said that the entire

In the urban area of ​​Vienna, the American, British and French occupation areas were surrounded in the middle. If you wanted to avoid passing through the Soviet occupation area, only the north-south roads could pass.

It can be said that half of the greater Berlin city is home to the United States, Britain and France. Even if you leave Berlin, you have to pass through the German Soviet-occupied area. The British, American and French-occupied areas in Vienna are directly surrounded by the Soviet-occupied area in Vienna. What's going on? Vienna's

The Soviet Red Army can handle it.

The reality is so cruel. It is no wonder that Alan Wilson struck hard in the face of British India and was submissive in the face of the Soviet Union. The visitor was a Soviet diplomat in Vienna, but he regarded all unidentified Soviet diplomats as

People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs are just like the other way around, and they are informants for MI6.

Alan Wilson also doesn’t know what kind of friendship there is between old-style imperialism and the Soviet Union, which liberated the world. If there is, it is Germany. His flattering attitude and disgusting words are breathtaking for the Soviet Red Army’s decisive role on the battlefield.

.Even the British diplomats in Vienna were shocked.

"Mr. Petrov, I saw that the Soviet military has strict discipline and the order in Vienna is amazing. I hope that the friendship between the British Empire and the Soviet Union can continue." Alan Wilson gushed, feeling disgusted in front of the half-bald Soviet diplomat.

To compliment him, he even took out ten boxes of cigarettes as gifts to express his friendship.

"Mr. Allen is so polite. We just heard that there were guests coming to Vienna, so we came to inquire out of caution. You also know that the war budget has ended, and many people are very disgusted with the Allies. It can be said that Vienna is not safe."

Petrov took over Alan Wilson's benefits without leaving a trace.

Who is Alan Wilson? He is a class enemy and a lackey of imperialism. If he can take advantage of him, the great motherland will praise him.

"Yes, it is absolutely the right decision for the Red Army soldiers to do this. Personally, I think that when so many Austrians supported the Anschluss, the whole of Austria has a big problem. There is no need to be polite in treating these war criminals!" Absolutely!

He politely stepped on the Austrian who was already lying on the ground. Alan Wilson's face was full of hatred and hatred, "Whatever the Soviet Union does to treat these war criminals is right."

Talking about the traditional friendship between Britain and Russia, such as the traditional friendship between the two countries when they dealt with Napoleon, and how they fought side by side against Germany during World War I. As for the collapse of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union taking the opportunity to default on its debts, Alan Wilson refused to do so out of the friendly relations between the two countries.

I mentioned it. Anyway, the UK will also default on its debts to the United States. If everyone defaults on their debts, there will be no debt.

"Mr. Allen, we in the Soviet Union have always recognized Britain's important role in the world. So, if you are not busy, come to the Epstein Palace with the diplomats from Schönbrunn Palace next year." Petrov nodded and said:

The well-meaning diplomat was so impressed that he extended an invitation directly.

"This is exactly the purpose of my coming to Vienna. After all, we are different countries and there may be some conflicts when we get along." Alan Wilson readily agreed, "Of course there are many things to talk about regarding the establishment of post-war order in Vienna.

"

The current situation in Vienna and even Austria may sound like a four-nation condominium, but in reality Austria and the Soviet Union are almost monopolized. Alan Wilson's Schönbrunn Palace is now the British headquarters in Vienna.

Schönbrunn Palace is located in Vienna, the capital of Austria. It is one of its most famous attractions. It was originally named after the Holy Roman Emperor Matthias hunted here and drank the spring water here. It was refreshing and sweet, so he named the spring "Beauty".

"Spring", this area is also called Schönbrunn. As a traditional Baroque art building, the majestic Schönbrunn Palace is second only to the Palace of Versailles in France.

Britain chose the Royal Palace as its headquarters in Vienna, which is naturally very consistent with the tradition of the monarchy of the British Empire.

The Soviet Union chose the Epstein Palace, the original gathering place for dignitaries of the Austrian Empire. At first glance, it was very political.

As for the headquarters chosen by the United States, it is also very consistent with the characteristics of the United States of America. It is the headquarters of the Austrian National Bank. It looks like it is here for money. As for France, it is the largest luxury hotel in Vienna.

Alan Wilson actually still had a lot to do. When he arrived in Vienna, he remembered that his job was not to go to the border to be a troublemaker. Of course he still had to go, but before that, he had to formulate the four-nation co-management mechanism in Vienna and make some decisions.

some basic contributions.

It's not that he realized it later, he only found out that none of this work had been done yet after asking the diplomats at Schönbrunn Palace.

"Do these local civil servants usually live such a comfortable life?" Alan Wilson sighed in his heart. He was a civil servant from British India and worked hard for the British Empire, but local diplomats were so ineffective.

After Petrov left, Alan Wilson began to ask the Yugoslav refugees in the border area, "Stevens, let our local diplomats try their best to delay, and I will handle this matter when I arrive."

"Liaison officer, are we going to contact the Soviet Union?" Stevens asked, "Will this arouse suspicion?"

Alan Wilson is the liaison officer of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Europe. This is not a very high position. Everyone who came to Europe with him is the same, but he is the only one who has come to Vienna now.

What does this mean? He is also the liaison officer of the Indian Affairs Department to British India, just in name.

"Go with the Americans and the French. We are still allies now, and it is normal for us to have contact. Of course, tomorrow morning, the Americans will declare war on the Soviets, just pretend I didn't say it." Alan Wilson suddenly laughed when he said this

Come, and after a while he pretended to be serious and said, "What is the difference between Austria and the Soviet Union now? Of course, the Soviet Red Army did not go to other occupied areas. From this point of view, it is very trustworthy. Solving the problem in Austria may require

It will take a lot of time and require the efforts of higher-level diplomats, but we must at least come up with a solution for the urban area of ​​Vienna, and we cannot continue to maintain military control."

The four countries' large occupied areas of Austria are easy to distinguish, but what about the city of Vienna? The area of ​​Vienna is far less than that of Berlin, and the occupied areas of various countries are still intertwined. They are all surrounded by the Soviets. A Vienna citizen may pass through different posts in the four countries when going out.

It will always be solved.

Even if only one draft is produced and nothing is resolved, it can still be a great addition to Alan Wilson's resume.

"Then I'll rest first." Alan Wilson raised his wrist to look at his watch. He should have sent a telegram to Pamela Mountbatten.
