After sending telegrams to Bonn, Paris and Los Angeles respectively, Alan Wilson took into account that the year was 1950 and wrote a report on the situation in the Far East as the last written report not involving Malaya before taking office.
.
In fact, this is not entirely correct. There are still some contents related to Malaya.
If war breaks out, Britain will definitely side with the United States, and no one can stop this.
At best, as in history, it is unrealistic to send tens of thousands of people to deal with the situation and completely ignore the United States and not cooperate.
In his report on the situation in the Far East, Alan Wilson analyzed the possibility of a war breaking out in the Far East based on China's current national strength and historical habits. As well as countermeasures for various possible situations.
"As for the Far East that is currently transformed into the Soviet system, it can be inferred from the performance of the Soviet Union in the early stages of the Russian Civil War. What is certain is that its military strength far exceeds that of the defeated artillery party troops trapped on the isolated island. In terms of interests in the Far East, the interests of the United Kingdom and the United States are different.
.Once something changes in the United States, it is likely to react in a stressful manner, because the United States has just come to the center of the world stage and urgently needs to show leadership."
"Once there is a confrontation between major powers, I can conclude that it will be extremely difficult for the United States to win, or even impossible to win at all. From the British perspective, of course, we must avoid being involved. If it is really unavoidable, we must determine whether the scale of the war will intensify the situation in Europe.
The reasons are taken into account.”
"The British Empire is rampant around the world, but it has not made much progress in the Far East. The reason is that the Qing Dynasty is a very powerful dynasty. It has strong control and is even more difficult to deal with than France, which is also centralized in Europe. We have waited for decades, but
I never find an opportunity to start."
"Europe's long-standing concern is that once the huge population in the East is fully armed, it will be an unimaginably difficult opponent that even the United States cannot handle."
"Alan, you are still so cautious. If you think the situation in the Far East is dangerous, why did you keep bringing in Chinese people in the first place? Didn't you put the threat into the territory of the British Empire?"
Norman Brook looked at the report submitted by Alan Wilson, which could be described as very alarmist, and asked directly.
"Dear Sir, can we look for the answer from the history of the founding of the Soviet Union?" Alan Wilson said calmly, "It is a well-known fact that the area of Imperial Russia was larger than that of the Soviet Union. The country established by revolutionaries was not
Otherwise the Soviet Union should not be led by Stalin, but by Trotsky who would promote world revolution. Malaya is still far away from the mainland and is outside the radiation of the mainland."
"Then how likely is it that your report will become reality?" Norman Brooke frowned.
"Fifty percent, there are two right and wrong answers to any question." Alan Wilson changed the subject, "But as long as a war breaks out in North Korea or Vietnam, it can be 100% certain. I speculate that the United States
I will not give up. Of course, the same goes for America's opponents. I don't care what happens to them, but I hope that Britain will not be affected. And once the war breaks out, I will try my best to prove in front of the people in Malaya that Britain is not the United States and that the two countries are at the same level.
It’s different after all.”
"Okay, let me leave this report here for now." Norman Brook nodded. He actually didn't believe in the authenticity of this report, but sitting in front of him was another oriental expert, so he decided to first
Put the report away, maybe you can use it later.
"If war breaks out, I guess the whole Whitehall will think that no one knows the East better than me." Alan Wilson walked out of the Cabinet Office and said to himself. For a certain country, this is the founding war, but for him it is the founding of a people.
The battle of setting up.
In Malaya, where he is about to go, there are currently two major ethnic groups, one of which is the Peace Cult group. Alan Wilson doesn't know much about it, but it is not a big problem. If you don't understand, you can slowly understand it. In his eyes, the Peace Cult and the Chinese have no essential connection.
The difference, if there is really a difference, is that the Peace Christians were beaten even worse by Europe.
The moves to introduce Chinese people in recent years are also sacrificing the interests of the peaceful believers, so what? Just do it!
After setting a time to take up the post, Alan Wilson notified many of his colleagues who had worked in British India, and began to prepare to complete his next job, trying to make a breakthrough with Hepburn.
Needless to say, he wants to get the dream girl in the eyes of countless men in the East and the West. Now that Audrey Hepburn has not become famous, he may take this as his goal.
Prepared to use the last bit of time in London to plan what to do, Alan Wilson returned home. Of course, Pamela Mountbatten was there, as well as a problem child of the royal family of the British Empire, Princess Margaret.
"You're back!" Princess Margaret was sitting in the living room, but first greeted the owner of this house.
"Oh, dear princess, this is very surprising." Alan Wilson's face changed color slightly, and then he looked around and shouted, and got a response from Pamela Mountbatten upstairs, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.
He said in a friendly manner, "Since you are here, you are welcome and please sit down."
"I heard from Pamela that if you are going to Malaya to be a commissioner, the conditions in such a far away place must be very poor." Princess Margaret sat down obediently and asked, "Actually, what's wrong with staying in London?
"
"If you just consider the convenience of life, of course there is nothing wrong with London." Alan Wilson chuckled and said, "Dear princess, do you want to be a respected princess of a powerful country? Or do you want to be Prince Philip?
What about members of the royal family like that? In fact, the power of Britain is not much stronger than that of Greece. Even from a historical and cultural perspective, Britain is not as good as Greece. Can you imagine the consequences of Britain losing all its overseas territories? "
"You can't, and I don't want to either. This doesn't conform to Whitehall's ideas. It probably doesn't conform to the ideas of Pamela and those nobles either." Alan Wilson asked himself and answered, "So we have to build a community that is strong enough for ourselves.
To ensure that there is no interference in the functioning of the system, colleagues in Whitehall have made great efforts to this end and have received the support of the Prime Minister."
"Are you doing this for the royal family?" Princess Margaret whispered, "No wonder Pamela is so protective of you."
"It's just that the general direction is consistent with the interests of the royal family, not for the royal family. However, I will always support this kingdom, because I understand that without this royal family, the development of the United Kingdom will not even be far from the rivals of Canada and Australia."
"My dear, are you back?" Pamela Mountbatten came down from upstairs with a smile on her face and said as she walked, "The princess is here as a guest today. I hope this won't make you angry. I know you like to be quiet."
"I don't dare!" Alan Wilson said with his head held high, "If you wear a skirt, you will be naked. Come down quickly."
It was about to rain. The sky was dark and gray-purple clouds shrouded the sky, making it almost impossible to distinguish the sky or the ground. The air was filled with a pungent smell, and the cold wind seemed to penetrate into Audrey Hepburn's bones.
The branches rustled in the wind, and the sad sound struck her heart.
She was too busy to stare at the clouds, but she kept noticing them approaching. Driven by a sense of urgency, she checked the engine, made sure there was enough oil, and moved the firewood into the house and onto the porch behind the kitchen.
Maybe her intuition was wrong. Maybe as the weather forecast said, it would rain heavily all day long.
But she trusted her instincts. This was her third year in the UK, and every time before a heavy rain, she always felt the same hair on her back, as if the air was full of energy and nature was getting ready. No matter that
Whether it was caused by static electricity in the air, or some ancient magical sixth sense, some uneasy emotion always ran through her spine.
She doesn't mind being alone. But it's not easy for one person to lock up all the vacation cabins. There are eight vacation cabins scattered along the edge of a beautiful and fish-rich lake, some of which have more than one bedroom.
She must make sure that all the doors and windows are closed tightly to resist the cold wind; the water valve must be turned off and the water in the water pipe must be drained to avoid freezing and exploding after the power is interrupted. She is certain that the power will be interrupted, it is only a matter of time.
question.
"I didn't expect that I would encounter such weather when I came to Scotland." Although Alan Wilson shouted for God's blessing in his heart, he still verbally expressed his apology to Audrey Hepburn.
"It seems that it will be difficult to go back." Audrey Hepburn sighed, feeling that being called out by Alan Wilson for a vacation was a wrong decision. She originally didn't want to go out, but she couldn't bear the man's teasing.
