Chapter 621: The Federal Republic of Germany is established
Britain has the ability to make peace between the United States and France. Of course it does, because 1951 was only halfway through. Using last year's figures as a reference, Britain's proportion of world manufacturing exports was 20%. 5. Steel production accounts for 15% of the world's output and 33% of the world's total shipbuilding tonnage.
Since the Korean War, the United Kingdom has also strengthened its garrison in Germany and added two heavy armored divisions. Not to mention that in Kalimantan, the United Kingdom also worked with the Dutch army to encircle and suppress Indonesian infiltration forces.
Regarding the list of British expenditures in Southeast Asia, the British representative also produced a list. Anyway, this was reported by Alan Wilson. It was a detailed data approved by Whitehall.
Alan Wilson, who was in London, seemed to feel an inexplicable power of cause and effect, which made Pamela Mountbatten, who was choosing a wedding dress, very strange and asked what was wrong.
"I don't know!" Alan Wilson shook his head. He didn't know that the cost of the garrison he had created had become evidence in the negotiations between the United States, Britain and France in Bonn. If he had known this, he would have been more nervous.
If necessary, he can create Malaya's fiscal expenditures now for the next ten years and ensure deficits every year.
"Scared me!" Pamela Mountbatten, who was wearing a wedding dress, turned around and asked Alan Wilson and Princess Margaret with a smile, "How is it? Does it look good?"
"Compared with people, clothes are still inferior." Alan Wilson commented seriously, "I have always said that any clothes are external factors, and they still have to meet the innate conditions."
"I just know how to say something nice." Pamela Mountbatten couldn't help but laugh out loud, turned around and looked at the mirror and said to herself, "Anyway, I'm very satisfied."
Then he pulled Alan Wilson over, looked at the suit on the man, and thought about whether he should change his suit. This scene made Princess Margaret even more appetized.
After finally settling on her wedding dress, Pamela Mountbatten took toolman Alan Wilson to meet her parents.
The two have decided to hold the wedding on August 23, and many guests have already notified them. They want to discuss with the Mountbatten couple whether there are any omissions.
"Father, mother, I have already found a photographer to record the wedding process as a souvenir. Of course, we have no intention of live broadcasting. The purpose of shooting is to leave a beautiful memory."
Pamela Mountbatten described the plan for the day, and then looked at Alan Wilson, who embodied a good example of a tool man and nodded with approval.
"You have known each other for five years!" Mountbatten said with a look of reminiscence. At that time, there was still a colony called British India. Of course, it was inappropriate to think so, so he said, "I don't have many guests. It's just... Several sea ministers, military generals, chiefs of staff of the three armed services, and some people from the National Defense Committee. If you don't count family members, there are only a few dozen people."
"About a dozen companies with business dealings will go to Westminster Abbey." Edwina Ashley said that she did not plan to invite too many people.
The couple left the main invitations to the aristocracy and their eldest daughter Patricia Mountbatten.
Westminster Abbey has always been the first choice for the upper class to hold weddings. The Mountbatten couple also held their weddings there, and it is very convenient. The Palace of Westminster is located on the bank of the Thames River and is the largest palace in the world.
A special building, it is the British Parliament Building. The upper and lower houses of Parliament are located here, and it is the core of British power.
At least Alan Wilson's colleagues in Whitehall can easily come over to attend the wedding without delaying work.
When the family was discussing, Princess Margaret couldn't help but feel envious. He had never experienced such a family atmosphere. Pamela Mountbatten recalled the past between the two, which made Princess Margaret even more excited.
Leisurely and fascinated.
"When I met Allen, I thought he was a future bureaucrat." General Mountbatten sighed, "Obviously he is so young and his face looks like he wants to be an official, so of course I have to be on guard.
This is also for the purpose of protecting my daughter."
"You almost drove away Pamela's happiness!" Edwina Ashley said with blame. "There is nothing wrong with being an official. Allen is a civil servant. It is difficult for him to deliberately become an official in order to prove his love."
Soldiers?"
Princess Margaret's face looked a little disgusted. Could this family be thinking about her brother-in-law, Prince Philip?
But this man will soon become her brother-in-law! Princess Margaret thought in her heart.
Of course, Alan Wilson didn't know that half of his sister-in-law's butt had arrived and was now waiting for a signature.
In the last single time of his life, he had already decided to have a drinking party all day long before getting married to enjoy his last single time.
Of course, this is all with the approval of Pamela Mountbatten. After all, no one wants to cause any unpleasantness before the five-year love race ends.
"I want to invite Turing!" Alan Wilson slapped his thigh and remembered an ill-fated genius. He mentioned this person to Pamela Mountbatten and wanted to invite him to the wedding.
"No problem, I heard that he is a very rigorous person." Pamela Mountbatten agreed immediately. There was already a tendency for couples to live together, and she did have a good impression of Turing.
If you are referring to the rigor of men and women, then there is really nothing wrong with it. The same cannot be said for other aspects!
Alan Wilson didn't say anything. Before spending the last period of his single life, the two of them went to the Emerald House. In this manor that already belonged to them, the two of them also dug up the treasures of the Roman Empire.
.
Alan Wilson even carries a gold coin with him as a souvenir. He pretends to be a big shot in front of ordinary people when he has nothing to do. It must be said that it is really useful.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "When the summer is hot, it can be a good place to relax!" Walking into the Jade House, Alan Wilson sighed. The jade he collected before Myanmar's independence was also
It came in handy to a certain extent.
In fact, this Jade House is more like an exhibition room. The manor residence built by the two people is built with ordinary materials. After all, no one wants to be covered in green every day if they really live there. The Jade House is a place for the two of them.
The decorations that show strength are not meant to actually move in.
"Speaking of summer, Australian summers are very difficult, and I want to build another one." Pamela Mountbatten expressed her wish and asked for her man's consent.
"I will communicate with Myanmar. But it may have to wait." Alan Wilson thought for a while and agreed. After all, Malaya is not far from Myanmar, so it is very convenient to contact him.
On August 13, the military chiefs of the United States, Britain and France approved the new law in Bonn and announced the occupation law. The structure of the West German government was basically established, with Bonn as the capital of Germany, and the Federal Republic of Germany was established.
With the participation of representatives from Britain, the United States and France, West Germany passed the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany. This day became the anniversary of West Germany. West Germany was established and its capital was Bonn. Chancellor Adenauer formed the first federal government.
The Federal Republic of Germany was officially established. This news directly triggered a huge backlash from Moscow. Moscow said that the United States, Britain and France tore up the Yalta Agreement and illegally established a coalition government.
Moscow's strong backlash also aroused opposition from pro-Soviet forces in Europe, who believed that this move put the entire Europe in danger. No one except Alan Wilson knew that the emergence of the Federal Republic of Germany was more than two years later than history.
Now that the Korean Peninsula has just passed its most intense stage, the Americans can't wait to strengthen Europe's defense capabilities. This is inevitable.
The United States in 1945 could still be persuaded, because Washington at that time had not yet adapted to his role. But the Washington of 1951 was completely different from what he thought in 1945.
Because of the emergence of the Federal Republic of Germany, Europe once again attracted the attention of the world. The limelight overshadowed the war in the Far East!
At this time in Washington, Congressman McCarthy was packing his bags. He originally planned to attend Alan Wilson's wedding. However, he was called over by the Republican Central Committee. In the mid-term elections, the Republican Party has taken back Congress, and its biggest goal now is to
The removal of the Democratic Party ended the fact that the Democratic Party had led the United States for a long time.
For this reason, the Republican Party is looking for heavyweight candidates. Taft of the Republican Party told McCarthy that the reason why Truman advocated the establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany and did not hesitate to anger the Soviet Union was probably for the election.
Politicians have nothing on their minds but elections, Taft said so, and McCarthy was quick to think so.
Congressman McCarthy, who was preparing to go to London to attend his friend's wedding, received an informal diplomatic mission to inquire about London's reaction to this incident.
After all, this wedding was a good opportunity to communicate with the British political circles. Taft believed that this occasion was more suitable. Maybe some informal effects could be achieved.
"My friend is a senior civil servant in Whitehall, and he is involved with the Mountbatten family. I also agree that this is a good opportunity." McCarthy agreed immediately. Taft is a leader of the conservative Republican Party, a former president and the Supreme Judge.
Son, the boss's regard made McCarthy full of motivation.
"I hope that Senator McCarthy's trip this time can consolidate the special relationship between Britain and the United States. At this time, the United States also needs the support of Britain and France on European affairs." Taft nodded in approval and said, "I am very optimistic about you."
I wish McCarthy a safe journey and that he can use his wedding to express goodwill to the British political community.
Because of what happened in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Soviet Union's counterattack was predictable, but it was just a question of when it would start.
