"The reactionary government mainly uses two methods to treat the people, one is to deceive and the other is to suppress." Alan Wilson learned the good news about the Gold Coast and said to Grace who was just in time to return.
"Who said this?" Grace frowned slightly, as if she shouldn't say such a thing from a British standpoint.
"Lenin!" Alan Wilson replied with a smile on his face, "Grace, we should know what our opponents think. Ignoring the enemy's thoughts is a very scary thing. I hope we will always remember this!"
To be fair, the current free world attaches great importance to the Soviet Union, at least more than it does to China in the 21st century. This is not a bad thing. If you pay attention to it, you can judge the possible countermeasures of the opponent.
If you don’t understand your enemy, making policies that you take for granted will lead to disaster. Who would have thought that the free world in the 21st century would respond like a cerebral infarction when faced with challenges?
To be honest, the policy making of the United States in the 21st century is such wishful thinking. If you read too much, you will feel that the Qing Dynasty is actually unable to keep up with the times. It is not incomprehensible. Hasn’t the United States also opened its eyes to see the world?
In fact, in the late stage of any political power, it is not that the vision cannot keep up, but that there are too many interests accumulated over hundreds of years. It is by no means an empty talk that the food and clothing of millions of water workers is dependent on it. No one dares to move, and naturally they can only sink together.
.
In fact, the same is true in Egypt. However, it is very difficult to solve Egypt's problems. It is still possible to alleviate or delay them.
Because in the final analysis, Egypt is still in an agricultural era as a whole. A wave of electrification with the Aswan Dam as the core can guarantee stability for at least 20 to 30 years. As for what will happen after the dividends of this wave of electrification are used up?
It's something that Alan Wilson can't control.
He could only solve the immediate problem. Grace's return this time also showed that Farouk I decided to attack the Free Officers Organization for his own throne.
"Sure enough, when it comes to key issues, no monarch will show mercy." Upon hearing this, Alan Wilson nodded with a smile, "King Farouk's reaction this time really surprised me. I also
I thought only emperors from the East had such determination to maintain the imperial system."
As for when to take action, because the commander of the Mediterranean Fleet is about to be replaced, Alan Wilson is more inclined to take action after his respected father-in-law takes office.
He was also thinking from his perspective, guessing that Nasser would be as unbearable as he was at the same time in history? First of all, there must be many more supporters of Farouk I than in the original history. There is no doubt about this.
It is still difficult to judge at this time, if Farouk I launches a purge of the Free Officers Organization, whether it will be able to be fought without bloodshed, or whether it will cause a certain degree of military conflict. This requires different filings to deal with it!
But one thing is certain, that is, if General Mountbatten arrives to take over the command of the Mediterranean Fleet, it can add a layer of insurance to this matter and serve as the backing of Farouk I.
After all, Mountbatten is a figure who has taken the template of the Great Heroic Dragon Aotian, and he has never targeted anyone in terms of courage.
In other words, he was born at the wrong time in Britain, which was in decline. If he was born at the peak of the British Empire, how could he be a five-star wheat emperor?
Now that Farouk I already thinks that the Free Officers Organization is a threat, he will first rule out one thing. If he is prepared, Farouk I will never have his throat cut instantly.
The initiative is already in the hands of this thief king to a certain extent. As long as there is a timely response from the British Mediterranean Fleet, it should not be a problem to deal with Nasser.
But even so, he still felt that he couldn't take action right away and must ensure the highest success rate.
Because Alan Wilson knew that the impact of Nasser's successful coup would be simply too great for the entire Arab world.
It soon attracted imitation in the Arab world. After the victory of the Egyptian revolution, Nasser became president. He often spoke on a program called Voice of Arabs, calling on the Arab people to rise up against imperialism, liberate themselves, etc.
Gaddafi, an ambitious young man in Libya, was a loyal listener of Nasser. Gaddafi was just an ordinary college student, but he could take the world as his own responsibility. He was very dissatisfied with the pro-Western king. As a college student, he did not think about how to make money and marry.
Wife, what he is thinking about is how to overthrow this corrupt government.
He did not blame himself because of his weak strength. He did not wait and started from himself. While giving up his university studies and transferring to the military school and joining the King's Guard, he encouraged his classmates to join the army. They met like-minded young people in the army and followed Nasser's way.
Form the Libyan version of the Free Officers Organization. After years of arduous organizational work, they have formed their own power system in the army.
Earlier, in the same year that Nasser seized power, some young Iraqi officers followed Nasser's example and formed a revolutionary officer group in the army. Four years later, they launched a coup and overthrew the Kingdom of Iraq.
The Arab Baath Party in Iraq was in power, which in turn led to the Baath Party in Syria. Afterwards, the merger of Syria and Egypt and the collapse of the Kingdom of Libya had a series of impacts. It can be said that all of them were related to the success of Nasser's coup.
It was precisely because he knew the importance of Nasser and the Free Officers Organization that Alan Wilson did not dare to take action as he did with Nkrumah.
This matter must first be approved by King Farouk I himself and supported by the British Mediterranean Fleet. The most important thing is that General Mountbatten is willing to support it, so he must wait until Mountbatten takes office before Alan Wilson feels confident.
First through Khalifa Sultan, and then through Grace, after having roughly learned what Farouk I was thinking, Alan Wilson secretly left the British Embassy and went down the river to the Tien Point Palace.
The Palace Guards, who are mainly Copts, are guarding the area near Tien Point Palace. This is some of the changes that Alan Wilson has brought to Egypt. This time he came in secret, of course, to talk about how to remove the threat of the Free Officers Organization.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In fact, for the UK, the most important thing is to keep the Suez Canal open. This canal is of great significance to the UK. Once the UK loses control of the canal, its influence on Asia will be
It will decline rapidly. Both the Persian Gulf and Malaya will be affected.
If it were not for this canal, Alan Wilson would not be able to imagine the value of Egypt as a country.
In terms of time, it is still unclear when Mountbatten will take office. Because there are procedures to go through, Alan Wilson only feels confident when his father-in-law is watching.
After meeting Farouk I, Alan Wilson expressed his determination to help only after his father-in-law took office.
As for the time to attack the Free Officers Organization, Alan Wilson said bluntly, "Dear His Majesty the King, the closer the time is to the US election, the better. I have an example here that I can share with you..."
The example mentioned by the Prime Minister of Egypt, Alan Wilson, is of course that four years ago, Chang Gong used lightning speed to fight in three major battles around the time of the US election, and was eaten up in more than two months.
A small army of two million people.
If before the three major battles, it was theoretically possible for Chang Gong to obtain support from the United States, after the three major battles, this theory may have disappeared, and the possibility only existed in the mouth of his good friend McCarthy.
For the reactionary forces in the current world, Chang Gong kneeling three times in two months is definitely a good example of negative teaching.
The closer it gets to the U.S. election, the more the United States will be unable to respond to the outside world. This is something that has been proven before.
"The only powerful country in the world that has good intentions towards the monarch is the United Kingdom. The Soviet Union tends to socialism, while the United States prefers democratically elected governments, and neither of them appreciates the identity of the monarch. It is hard to say whether Egypt's future needs the United Kingdom, but Your Majesty the King,
We must maintain sufficient goodwill towards Britain."
Alan Wilson stated openly that King Farouk I should cooperate with the United Kingdom even if it was for his own personal reasons.
However, the carrot and stick policy will never go out of style. After mentioning the monarchy, Alan Wilson said that Britain can compensate the Kingdom of Egypt in other ways. For example, it can provide necessary support for the development of Egypt.
"Alan, as the king of Egypt, of course I have full respect for Britain." Farouk I pondered and asked, "But I want to know how much goodwill Britain is willing to express in the development of Egypt."
"Dear King, I think this issue should be discussed after the internal threats in Egypt have been eliminated." Alan Wilson smiled and said, "But what I can reveal is that the final destination of my inspection is Iran, and I want to negotiate with Iran.
Let’s talk about the issue of oil distribution again. If His Majesty the King is interested, you can pay attention to the relevant news.”
Alan Wilson's meaning is very simple. If he negotiates with the Iranians and achieves a good result, he may be able to use Egypt as a trap in the future. As for now, Farouk I should join hands with the United Kingdom to eliminate domestic instability factors first.
King Farouk I agreed to this, and Yin Bufa first began to investigate the Free Officers Organization, and at the same time stayed at the Tien Point Palace to ensure safety under the protection of the palace guards.
After meeting with Farouk I this time, Alan Wilson received a call back from his wife again, saying that General Mountbatten should take office in July. Alan Wilson calculated the time and said in the call back that he was going to Iran to bring Iranian oil.
After the distribution issue is negotiated and there is a result on this issue, we can go to Cyprus to wait for my father-in-law to take over the Mediterranean fleet.
After three months of inspection, Alan Wilson, who set out from Alexandria, approached the Persian Gulf, the final destination of this part-time job, to solve the most urgent problem in the eyes of the London government, the distribution of Iranian oil interests.
Although the negotiations were with Iran, the location of the negotiations was not in Iran, but in the seemingly neutral city of Basra in southern Iraq.
