Chapter 774 Nautilus Nuclear Submarine

A group of people from the U.S. Embassy, ​​including Marine Corps soldiers, all looked disgusted. If this matter was pursued today, the Marine Corps would definitely have failed in their duties, but who would have thought that a group of cars with British flags came in to do this?

This one?

Even when Alan Wilson came in, the Marines saluted him, but they came in to beat up the Americans.

"Mr. Wilson, General Navarre is looking for you. I didn't expect you to be here." The French gendarme captain who came here clarified France's responsibility. You, Britain and the United States, are your own affairs. We French gendarmes are just witnesses. We are just witnesses.

Did not participate.

"General Navarre?" Alan Wilson looked ignorant and ignorant. He never mentioned that he had notified the French commander before coming. He took a deep breath before saying, "I will be there in a moment. Today's events have embarrassed General Navarre."

.But this is an internal contradiction of the free world, so we can just talk about it."

"No problem, we also have something wrong." The American ambassador raised his eyes and forced a smile.

"It's your fault. Even if you meet a local, you should treat him with courtesy. I'm very confused. Robert is a very gentleman, and Joseph is a good person who is easy to get in touch with. Why are some Americans like this?"

Alan Wilson attributed the responsibility to the arrogance of the Americans, and then said hello, "Let this matter go. I hope similar misunderstandings will not occur again in the future. The hired bodyguards are employees of the Mountbatten Group, and your surnames are not Morgan or Rockefeller."

, think more about it when you do things.”

The Imperial Commissioner had a look of hatred on his face, and he spat at the Americans present before leaving in disinterest.

After the person left, the U.S. Embassy secretly cursed at the bad luck for inviting such a person in. It had no choice but to swallow this loss.

Alan Wilson actually didn't care much. Although he took action, his attitude was not arrogant.

A few years ago, an incident occurred at the British Embassy in Washington, the United States. A British diplomat in the embassy got drunk, went crazy and locked an invited American female guest into the bathroom. As for this person, he was one of the Cambridge Five.

McLean.

That time, Maclean frightened the wife of an American guest, and was not punished in the end. What's more, Alan Wilson just had a small relationship with an American in a place that no one had heard of.

The friction cannot be compared with the McLean causing trouble in the US capital.

The nature is completely different, not to mention that Alan Wilson has already forgiven the Americans in the embassy, ​​and the matter ends there.

After sending the two women back, Alan Wilson appeared at the French headquarters half an hour later, drinking coffee in front of General Navarre, as if nothing happened.

General Navarre did not have such a good attitude as Alan Wilson. He asked with a wry smile, "You dare to trouble such arrogant Americans? Just for such a small thing?"

"Isn't it thanks to you French people that Americans are so arrogant? They sent troops to fight with us, Britain, and would rather have the king be guillotined than to help the United States become independent. Americans in the world today are so arrogant, and I really want to thank you."

Alan Wilson blew on the coffee gently, took a sip and said, "I didn't expect that the Americans came so quickly. I just took a look and saw that the U.S. Embassy is large enough to accommodate five hundred people. There are not many people there now."

If there are too many, the embassy will be filled soon."

There is a Marine Corps in the U.S. Embassy. The more places you want to intervene, the larger the embassy will be. This is true for both the United States and the Soviet Union. When Afghanistan withdrew its troops in later generations, just one embassy staff would be busy enough.

For a while.

"Don't talk about things that happened two hundred years ago." General Navarre was helpless. Who knew that France was just a country created to cause trouble for Britain, and now it started to point fingers at Britain and France.

But there is no way around it. The vision two hundred years ago was different from what it is now. After France lost the Seven Years' War, it felt lucky to be able to win the interests of the European continent. It felt that the loss of the entire New France and French India was not as good as the loss of a single Belgium.

important.

"But having said that, the troops will be withdrawn from Hanoi next month, and the Royal Navy will have warships to respond. General Mountbatten has made arrangements. I have also said hello to Major General George. We are willing to appear on such occasions because

France can evacuate in an orderly and step-by-step manner and get everything sorted out before leaving."

Regarding the actions to completely destroy North Vietnam's war potential, not only Alan Wilson and Navarre knew about it. Since the French were willing to be evil, this matter was already known to the United States. At least McCarthy knew about it and was very supportive of it.

In fact, even the U.S. ambassador to South Vietnam already knew about it. Otherwise, Allen Wilson would not have been indifferent if he introduced himself and blasted the second secretary. He also knew that in South Vietnam at this time, there was a British and

Congressman McCarthy's relationship is irreconcilable. Of course, coming to the embassy to commit murder was beyond the expectations of the ambassador.

Alan Wilson mentioned the assistance of the Royal Navy to give General Navarre the confidence to take action. He believed that some military preparations should be almost complete.

General Navarre nodded and said that hundreds of targets related to the country's war potential have been formulated. Once the withdrawal begins, the French army in North Vietnam will begin to destroy, even including livelihood projects, and even the telephone poles will be eager to blast.

"It's good to have it filed. Is there enough time? As long as the United States has no objection to this matter." Alan Wilson said it didn't matter anyway. Although he gave suggestions, the French were the ones who implemented them, and the responsibility was of course the French.

It has nothing to do with him.

General Naval said, the United States has no problem with a British person who went to the U.S. Embassy to beat someone, so who else can it have a problem with?

Returning to the villa where she lived, Vivien Leigh's anxious look finally turned calm after the appearance of Alan Wilson, and she complained, "Why are you so impulsive? Don't you usually want to make ten kinds of filings for one thing? How can you be so direct this time?"

Rushed to the U.S. Embassy?”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "If I can't even protect the star of your company, will I still have the face to appear in front of you in the future?" He reached out and touched the face of the British treasure, and Alan Wilson comforted him softly.

, "It's nothing, it's within my ability. What does a second secretary mean? Has the reply to Joseph been sent?"

"Mr. Wilson, thank you." Xia Meng and Yachigusa Kaoru expressed their gratitude, especially the latter. As a Japanese, Yachigusa Kaoru knew very well that Americans are usually not easy to mess with. In fact, Japan is under the occupation of the United States.

Kaoru Yachigusa had to admit that today this British official looked like a hero, saving a weak woman.

"You two are stars that Vivian is very optimistic about, and your future development will definitely be very good." Ellen Wilson was an old double standard, and immediately put on a pleasant smile. It must be said that two actresses of different nationalities,

You are in the best stage of your life at this time, and this stage has just begun.

If Vivien Leigh hadn't been there, Alan Wilson might have said a few more words, but now he could only stop here, "Here's General Mountbatten's telegram. I remember I haven't read it yet."

"I'll get it for you!" Vivien Leigh immediately hurried upstairs to get it. When she came down, she heard Alan Wilson talking about the plan to build a theater in British Malaya and the need to cooperate culturally with Japan in the future.

.

Vivien Leigh also knew about this. Not only was it a theater plan, Alan Wilson also wanted to build a TV station for Vivien Leigh to run. He even thought of a name, called Emperor TV.

After the unfinished comparison, Alan Wilson had to see what the telegram from his father-in-law contained, while Vivien Leigh went to prepare the food for the evening, just like a good wife and mother.

"Nautilus? The world's first nuclear submarine?" Alan Wilson saw General Mountbatten's telegram and said to himself that his father-in-law is still very concerned about the development trend of the navy, but General Mountbatten's personality is the same as that of the British, and he is optimistic about projects.

Most failed, but certainly not including nuclear submarines.

The UK also has a nuclear submarine project, but the biggest problem currently is that the nuclear reactor has not yet made a breakthrough. It has to be said that the sun does not set on the UK now, and even the best navy is beginning to be unable to keep up.

In fact, in the early days of nuclear submarines, Britain and the United States also worked together. In 1948, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and the U.S. Navy jointly announced the decision to build nuclear submarines. But in the end, everyone knows that the United States could even go back on the agreement it had signed on the Manhattan Project.

, the plan to jointly build nuclear submarines naturally ended in vain.

The Nautilus nuclear submarine was launched in January this year. The Nautilus was baptized with a bottle by Mamie Eisenhower, the wife of then President Dwight Eisenhower. Mankind's first nuclear submarine was launched into the Thames River amid the cheers of tens of thousands of spectators. Passed by

With great efforts, the Nautilus was completed by the end of this year, costing US$55 million to build.

According to General Mountbatten, the Nautilus nuclear submarine is about to enter service. The Admiralty is very interested in American nuclear submarines and wants to try to learn from them.

As for how General Mountbatten knew about it, it was because Admiral Hyman George Rickover, the man who led the U.S. Navy's nuclear power program, was Mountbatten's friend.

After reading it, Alan Wilson called back his father-in-law, saying that nuclear submarines were indeed a development direction and applauded his father-in-law's foresight.

However, his cheers were limited to nuclear submarines. Nuclear power is an urgent need for submarines. However, surface ships are not an urgent need. Even aircraft carriers do not necessarily pursue nuclear power.

The reason why the United States' aircraft carriers are nuclear-powered is because the United States once pursued an all-nuclear-powered fleet, but failed in the end. Nuclear power for small and medium-sized warships was not worth the gain, and the nuclear power of aircraft carriers is a legacy.
