Alan Wilson understood that the appearance of the commander of the Far East Air Force in front of him at this time was also a reminder to the end.
Japan is a place for Americans. For example, Alan Wilson met with Japanese political leaders. As the military representative of the US military stationed in Japan, Lieutenant General George felt very uncomfortable.
Alan Wilson also hinted at this point that he had no intention of causing trouble in Japan. To put it bluntly, Britain did not have the ability. This response satisfied Lieutenant General George. The British still knew how much they were worth.
On the one hand, when the UK is causing trouble in Japan, it is still doing trouble in Japan under the control of the United States. It is indeed beyond its capabilities.
On the other hand, Alan Wilson also respects the US military stationed in Japan, especially Lieutenant General George. The US Far East Air Force will be very important in the next few years, and there is no need to offend the other party.
After five large-scale battles, both sides should have a good understanding of each other.
In fact, stories about the MiG Corridor appeared in large numbers, and it was only after the five battles that they were widely reported. The reason was that there was no progress on the ground, and the United States relied more on the Far East Air Force to gain the war initiative, which made the battle over the peninsula more and more intense.
Considering that Lieutenant General George was an American, Alan Wilson was embarrassed to mention Hokkaido in front of the Japanese, but sincerely wished that the US military could quickly break the deadlock.
"It would be great if the British government could be as easy to talk to as Mr. Wilson." Lieutenant General George didn't think too much. Hearing Alan Wilson's good wishes for the war, he responded in kind.
Alan Wilson smiled helplessly and said, "Dear General, we can't control the affairs of politicians. And to be honest, most members of the White House currently understand that Britain is no longer what it used to be, and what colleagues are thinking is
Earn a suitable pension and live an ordinary life stably."
Alan Wilson felt that if his career did not go well, he could consider embracing Vivien Leigh's thigh and joining the entertainment industry. If he prepared for a few years, why not earn the title of an old drama star and support each other with many actresses who have made their names in history?
What.
Lieutenant General George's attitude was very good, and Alan Wilson also expressed his good wishes. There was no unpleasantness about Britain's participation in the war, and both of them sympathized with each other and did not mention it.
After talking for a while, they both clarified each other's bottom line. Lieutenant General George confirmed that the British did not know the heights of the world and were causing trouble on American territory, so the two sides would still maintain the special relationship between Britain and the United States.
"But I heard that Mr. Hatoyama seems to want to rebuild the national defense system." Alan Wilson said, not betraying anyone. Many people know Ichiro Hatoyama's ideas.
"Actually, I personally don't object to the establishment of a certain self-defense force independently. It mainly depends on Washington's attitude." As a soldier, Lieutenant General George is unwilling to express his position on political matters at this time. The reason is very simple.
MacArthur, the five-star emperor whom President Truman was talking about, had just left the country not long ago.
You may not know what happened to the group that participated in the Korean War in history? Alan Wilson secretly laughed in his heart.
MacArthur, Ridgway, and Van Fleet all interrupted their rising official careers and quit the front-line troops when they reached their age. Even Van Fleet, whose presence was not high, was wasted by Washington because of Van Fleet's ammunition.
An inquiry was launched, and Van Fleet was eventually transferred. This was in sharp contrast to Eisenhower's faction who would continue to shine in the future U.S. military.
In fact, before the Korean War, MacArthur, whose reputation far surpassed that of Eisenhower, was later overtaken by Eisenhower. The answer can be seen by one person.
When bidding farewell to Lieutenant General George, Alan Wilson also mentioned that he was getting married soon and would invite a friend to attend the wedding, but he didn't know if he would be available.
"Who is it?" Lieutenant General George asked with curiosity.
"Oh, Congressman McCarthy, we have been in contact through letters." Alan Wilson said with a reserved smile.
He did not invite any friends to his wedding. Apart from his colleagues in Whitehall, he was only prepared to invite McCarthy.
Although Pamela Mountbatten said she was unwilling to make too big a deal, given General Mountbatten's connections and the fact that his colleagues in Whitehall might support her, there was a limit to not making too big a deal.
It's just that there is no need to make it known to everyone. This is actually a good opportunity for McCarthy. Once he receives the invitation, I believe McCarthy will be very willing, because he also needs to appear on such a major occasion to increase his status.
When Lieutenant General George left, he expressed congratulations to Alan Wilson because of McCarthy's name. The special relationship between Britain and the United States was further consolidated!
"Hmph!" Alan Wilson snorted softly and turned back to the ambassador in Japan. "Tea, tea, tea, please!"
Lieutenant General George came to the door in person to give some advice. Can it be said that the warning worked? That's what he thought.
A team of more than a dozen professional journalists, actually MI6 agents handpicked by Philby, arrived in Tokyo.
These people arrived in Tokyo not to do anything against Japan, but to prepare to enter the peninsula battlefield as war reporters. The real purpose was to secretly investigate the massacre of civilians by the US and South Korean troops in the war in the next few years.
Alan Wilson remembers that the U.S. military has done this kind of concentrated massacre more than once. The reason why the Korean left was restless throughout the Cold War and was always ready to move, so that the United States had to rely on the military government to suppress it, is because there is clear evidence for many massacres.
And the U.S. military itself admitted it.
The purpose of investigating this matter is not that the British Empire wants to hoe the strong and support the weak. After all, the United States is too strong. It is that it is good for Britain to have the clues in hand and be prepared for any danger.
As the designated successor to MI6, Philby was very willing to help in this matter. He used his power to form a team of agents affiliated with major media and fully equipped with legitimate media personnel to come and help.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Even if you are a traitor, you still have to see how to use it!" Alan Wilson fully recognized Philby's efficiency.
The experience of the attack on the prisoner of war camps in Northern Rhodesia and Malaya told Alan Wilson that in addition to bundling interests, joint crime is also a good way to bundle each other. The existence of such things as surrender warrants makes sense.
If it could seize evidence that the US military massacred civilians on a large scale during the war, Britain might be able to escape unscathed at a critical moment.
Of course, Alan Wilson hopes that Britain can rely on its strength to protect the interests it holds. But if it cannot, it is understandable to use some external tactics to make the United States stop when enough is enough.
"I do believe Philby, but are these agents professional? They should still create an opportunity to see if they have entered the role of reporters." Alan Wilson took a look at this mission in front of Burgess.
The agent asked, "A group of prisoners of war will arrive in Tokyo soon, and a scene that will test your photography skills is about to occur."
"Alan, what do you want to do?" Burgess frowned. He couldn't judge Alan Wilson's behavior, but the two things seemed to have nothing to do with each other.
"Repatriating prisoners of war and the end of the war is something worth celebrating after all." Alan Wilson changed the subject and asked in a low voice, "Don't the employees of the embassy have a Japanese mistress?
With the current conditions in Japan, I believe they definitely exist."
"Just tell me the purpose!" Burgess frowned slightly, really speechless about Alan Wilson's thinking.
"It's very simple. How to set up the headlines for the repatriation of prisoners of war? This is what I think. The best photo for the front page headline is a photo of Japanese prisoners of war who are in ragged clothes and preferably some wretched ones returning home and walking in the prosperous Japan.
On the street, and in the background is a young Japanese woman with a happy face holding the hand of a US soldier stationed in Japan. It is best for these two images to be in the same photo."
Speaking of this, Burgess' eyes changed color and became a little evil. Alan Wilson quickly explained, "Burgess, don't look at me like that. It's not like you have never worked in the media. You should have some conscience towards these British Empires."
As you know, there are benefits to doing this, maybe it can reduce the hostility of Australians, right?"
In fact, it does not matter whether Australia's hostility is reduced or not. What is important is that it can create a famous image. Even the current British Malaya needs this kind of image. Only the Japanese are unhappy, everyone is happy, why not do it.
All that was needed was to borrow a U.S. military uniform and a good-looking young Japanese woman.
It took a few minutes to finally get Burgess to agree. This staged test to test the professional abilities of the agents was ready. If it passed successfully, it would inevitably appear on the front pages of Australia, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Portugal.
superior.
According to time, the first batch of prisoners of war departing from East Malaysia has been loaded on the ship, and Ichiro Hatoyama is waiting for this opportunity to increase his influence.
While waiting, the fifth battle on the peninsula, which had lasted for a month, finally failed to break the deadlock between the two sides. As the battle stopped, Alan Wilson discussed the situation on the peninsula with Burgess and said, "
It should turn into a low-intensity war, or a security war. If this happens, it will not be easy for the United States to end the war in a short time."
"If it were you, what would I do?" Burgess couldn't help asking when he saw Alan Wilson looking like he was winning.
"Modern society cannot solve it! Unless the Americans expand the massacre of civilians a hundred times." Alan Wilson shook his head decisively. "I guess the Soviets are very happy."
"So the Americans had their own Boer War?" Burgess found an example.
"Hard to say!" Alan Wilson did not answer this question. In fact, the Vietnam War was more in line with Burgess's definition.
On June 9, in Tokyo Bay, the ship carrying the first batch of repatriated prisoners of war slowly docked. Hatoyama Ichiro, who had already been prepared, was waiting at the dock with his congressional supporters.
