"No problem, dear boss, it would be better if you didn't mention Andy." Alyssa agreed with a gleaming look.
"Sorry, my original schedule was to meet with Malay leaders to talk about the land distribution bill, and solemnly promised that they would never be replaced by Chinese. Now I leave the appeasement work to you."
Alan Wilson thought about whether there were any mistakes. It seems that there are no mistakes for the time being. He will think about it and send a telegram when he gets to London. He is sincere in supporting the Chinese and is also sincere in taking precautions.
He will never let the dove occupy the magpie's nest in British Malaya. After all, he doesn't owe anyone. He always acts in the interests of the British Empire. If the population of the British mainland explodes, he will still need to borrow money.
The power of other ethnic groups?
Take the matter of collecting Japanese prisoners of war as an example. There is no personal emotion involved at all.
Once successful, Alan Wilson will start a large-scale arrest operation to arrest all the criminals involved in this matter. It is possible to release them, but the entire Chinese community must be forced to be loyal to the British Empire.
The root cause of this incident is simply too simple. He just wanted the Chinese to hand in a petition and do something that the whole world thought was wrong, forcing the other party to maintain British colonial rule.
With millions of Chinese-Americans signing a petition to save the murderer's life in exchange for his dream of supporting British colonial rule, Alan Wilson boarded a special plane back to China.
It was a special plane. As a colonist, he must ensure his own safety. Thanks to the call of the British Empire, the hard-working civil servant set foot on the soil of London after many stops.
Even with jet lag, I arrived at Whitehall in a daze. At this time, the northern army on the Korean Peninsula was in full swing. Intense discussions were breaking out at the United Nations. The U.S. troops stationed in South Korea had already joined the war, which of course did not change the fate of being beaten.
The war that broke out in the Far East naturally aroused discussion in Britain. Although the war effort had just begun, Whitehall was very busy. Norman Brooke ordered Alan Wilson to return to London because of his previous report.
"It's just like your previous report prediction!" Norman Brooke summoned Alan Wilson in his office and went directly to the topic, "Because it involves the relationship with the United States, and the United States meaningfully organizes coalition forces in the name of the United Nations.
The cabinet is discussing this matter, what do you think?"
"This is not what I think, but it depends on the strength of the Soviet Union's support and the scale of the war. If it is only limited to the peninsula, Britain is really worried about its relationship with the United States and there is no way to refuse." Alan Wilson
At this point, the conversation changed, "But if the scale of the war cannot be controlled, to put it bluntly, the glorious age is back."
"Alan, this is a big deal." Norman Brooke gave Alan Wilson an incomprehensible look.
In the second half of 1945, when the European position had come to an end, what many British people hoped for most was that Japan would keep its word and engage in a decisive battle on its own soil with the United States for two years, giving Britain two years to breathe.
Opportunity. It can weaken the United States and the Soviet Union, and let the United Kingdom experience the feeling of the United States watching from afar.
But Japan failed to live up to expectations and was defeated by two atomic bombs, which greatly disappointed the British Empire.
Norman Brooke was already the second-in-command in Whitehall at the time and could certainly recall what happened at that time.
But at this moment, it is not suitable to speak like this. Thanks to Alan Wilson's report before he went to Malaya to take office, he foresaw today's situation.
"Once the scale cannot be controlled, will it spread for a long time?" Although it is somewhat inappropriate, the respected cabinet secretary does not mean to laugh at the Americans.
"I think we shouldn't be too optimistic, but compared to the Allied Powers when the Soviet Union was founded, as long as it takes longer than this, Britain will make a profit." Alan Wilson saw through it but didn't say it clearly. He pretended not to understand that his immediate boss was also gloating about his misfortune.
"If there is a three-year war, we can imagine the decisive battle in Japan. This is not a bad thing for the British Empire."
"Oh, will there be such an optimistic result?" Norman Brooke said to himself reservedly, "This is really a tragedy."
"An absolute tragedy!" Alan Wilson fully agreed, with a sullen face, "We don't want the war to break out, but participating in the war at the request of the United States? As we all know, the Royal Navy, the pride of the British Empire, is always ready to fight for
Do your part for world peace.”
In theory, it is of course best for Britain not to participate in the war, but that only exists in theory. Alan Wilson is now discussing how to participate in the war smartly based on participation in the war. Although the 250 million pounds in the Far East is enough to keep London calm,
The US dollars of the Marshall Plan also cannot leave London indifferent, so this matter is very complicated.
The United Kingdom can make a gesture of violence. In order to show its seriousness, it can even imitate the Russian expedition to the Japanese joint fleet and unsea the Queen Elizabeth and Warrior battleships to form a powerful maritime strike group to demonstrate the power of maintaining world peace.
If the navy is not enough, of course there is the Royal Air Force, which has attracted much attention after the war and is the mainstay of the British Empire. As for the Army Red Deer, let's not mention it.
But if the army must be used, if the United States insists on requiring a certain number of ground troops, the Nepali mercenaries who followed the British Empire in the northern and southern wars are on standby at any time. I believe they will be dispatched at any time. The most important thing is to save money.
It's not that Britain is prevaricating against its close allies. The key point is that Britain is indeed not good at ground power. Although if the Soviet Union only had a population of 50 million, Britain might not be afraid of the Soviet army, but Americans don't need to know this.
.
After Alan Wilson received the news about the Soviet Union's absence from the recent United Nations resolutions from Ismay, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he continued to add to his report, "There are various signs that the Soviet Union chose the Far East as a breakthrough point. This has a great impact on Europe.
This is a good thing, but I predict that once the scope of the war expands, in order to prevent European countries from helping the United States, the Soviet Union will definitely increase its ground power in the European direction."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Britain has just ended the rationing system not long ago, and it definitely does not want the scope of the war to expand.
Unlike the rest of East Asia, Britain has little historical connection with the Korean peninsula. Many British soldiers could not even find the peninsula on a map. Although just a few years ago, some British soldiers encountered South Korean soldiers - recalling that they
Japanese prisoner-of-war camps were brutally treated by Korean guards.
But even these painful memories cannot prevent South Korea from seeming extremely distant in the eyes of most British people.
In the passage that involves the participation of ground troops in the war if it is unavoidable, Alan Wilson solemnly warned that the British position should be to preserve the existence of South Korea, and that if the counterattack succeeds, it will never set foot on the northern soil.
The report was completed, Alan Wilson submitted the report, and then left Whitehall to go to the respected Sea Lord Mountbatten to catch up with the past. Because Pamela Mountbatten went to Paris and made trouble for the French shareholders, he could only talk to the respected father-in-law.
Have a heart-to-heart talk.
In 1945, the representative British figure who hoped that Japan would keep its word and fight a decisive battle on home soil was Mountbatten, who constantly persuaded the US military to land in Japan and liquidate the entire country.
"Oh, will it really mess up the Americans?" General Mountbatten was obviously more interested in Alan Wilson's words. Although Japan did not have a decisive battle on its own soil at first, which disappointed his expectations, but if he can get it back after five years
If so, it is also a good result.
"Dear General, as I said before, it depends on whether the scale of the war can be controlled." Alan Wilson said truthfully, "If the Soviet Union's population losses were not too great, I would be the most supportive of Whitehall forming an immediate alliance with the United States.
People in military alliances and countries under the Soviet system are usually stronger than they appear on the surface. This is especially true in Asia, where the region is quite poor and the Soviet Union's ideas are very attractive."
This meeting between father-in-law and son-in-law was certainly effective. Mountbatten expressed his willingness to try to restart the battleships Queen Elizabeth and Warrior and transfer them to the Far East.
Alan Wilson expressed his gratitude, "In fact, for common colonies now, battleships are more deterrent than aircraft carriers, especially in Indonesia across the strait."
General Mountbatten, like most British people, had no idea what the Korean Peninsula was like. As Mountbatten’s son-in-law, Alan Wilson was of course obliged to answer the question, saying that South Korea was a part of Japan. During World War II, the Koreans
Join the army enthusiastically and fight to the end for the Japanese Empire.
As a person who made a will not to allow Japanese people to attend even funerals, Mountbatten, the current Fourth Sea Lord, understood immediately, his face turned from cloudy to cloudy, and he said meaningfully, "So that's the case, that's really interesting."
"Although we all believe that this war has nothing to do with Britain, if the United States insists on requesting it, it will be difficult for us to refuse." Alan Wilson looked embarrassed, "We can only think of a way."
"Of course the Royal Navy is ready to dispatch at any time. Let us start preparations now to help the Americans across half the world." General Mountbatten said without thinking. He felt that the Americans should be able to wait a few months.
"After all, we are helping the United States. That war is more of the responsibility of the United States. Now the United States believes that it is invincible. We should not steal the limelight from the Americans. Even if we send ground troops, we should not set foot north of the dividing line.
On land. If the scale of the war is controlled, let the Americans enjoy the glory of victory. It has nothing to do with us anyway."
Mountbatten agreed with his son-in-law's view. After all, he was an expert in Oriental studies. This man's establishment was still very successful, otherwise he would not have been recalled. Within one day after returning to London, Alan Wilson unified the military bosses and Whitehall.
