Besides, it’s not without its benefits. Doesn’t this demonstrate the unity between the United States, Britain and France?
From the beginning to the end, Alan Wilson knew what he was doing, and he also knew that the current behavior was morally untenable and that he was serving a selfish force.
But what can he do from this position? Britain's strategic space is disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In order to make his country easier, he should do this. Things are not moral or not, only right or wrong.
.
The Far East Joint Operations Command immediately called back and asked about the ins and outs of Haiphong Port. Alan Wilson, who had already contacted Major General George Ball, was well prepared and unified his rhetoric with his father-in-law's men. They responded unanimously, "The North Vietnamese military's
Taking the initiative to provoke, the Royal Navy has no choice but to fight back."
In the evening, the Far East Joint Operations Command did not continue to ask questions, but the telegram from Major General George Ball already explained the problem. General Bilton meant to get out as soon as possible.
This already shows that the Far East Joint Operations Command has accepted the arguments of the two men. At least in terms of division of responsibilities, it can be regarded as a narrow escape from the possibility of being held accountable in the future.
As long as there are no losses, it will not be difficult for this shelling of Haiphong Port to be reduced from a major incident to a trivial matter. Maybe among some conservative voters, this is still a happy thing. I am invincible in the world...
However, from Alan Wilson's own perspective, there is another reason to celebrate. This is also the old father's love for his rebellious son. This incident may serve as a preview of the future Tokyo Bay incident and provide a script for the United States' frame-up.
.
The Gulf of Tonkin incident was a landmark event for the United States to fully intervene in the Vietnam War. Of course, this incident has always followed the American political tradition of using a small incident to make things bigger. Compared with the Maine incident, the Gulf of Tonkin incident is enough to stand up.
Stop.
The United States entered the Vietnam War after reports of an unprovoked attack in the Gulf of Tonkin.
The US president knew these reports were false. At the time, the USS Maddox was stationed on the northern coast of Vietnam, near the Gulf of Tonkin. Two days later, the Johnson administration claimed it had been attacked again. After the second attack,
The U.S. Congress almost unanimously passed a resolution allowing the federal government to "take all necessary measures" to protect U.S. troops in Vietnam.
Equivalent to within forty-eight hours, Washington completed the unification of the two parties' attitudes towards the Vietnam War. It can be said that even the Soviet Union during Stalin's period may not have such efficiency.
After the "Gulf of Tonkin Resolution", the United States fully intervened in the Vietnam War. It was no longer as sneaky as before, and finally began to personally go into battle to educate this disobedient little regime.
After this bombardment of coastal defenses, if the Royal Navy retreats completely, it may increase the courage of the U.S. Navy, and the Tokyo Gulf incident may break out earlier. But Americans do not need to thank Alan Wilson, this is the special relationship between Britain and the United States
As a by-product, he was ready to hide his merit and fame and leave Saigon.
In fact, Su Yang and others left a few days earlier than him. There was no way, because Alan Wilson was such a person, he liked personal heroism to do the work after the break.
Without these big compradors, Alan Wilson was more relaxed, and Vivien Leigh was also more relaxed. They enjoyed this comfortable life in a third country where no one knew the two of them, but there were still Xia Meng and Yaqian Caoxun.
"It seems that the United States has great expectations for South Vietnam." During lunch, Vivien Leigh waited until Alan Wilson came back. She knew that the man must have gone to the U.S. Embassy again, and she stepped forward to help him take off his coat.
Although two of his Asian stars were present, the British treasure didn't care anymore. Anyone who wasn't blind during this period could see the relationship between the two, so there was no need to cover up.
"Expectations? That's true!" Alan Wilson smiled bitterly. Although he understood that this was the biggest disappointment of the United States in the Cold War, he couldn't help but said, "Every country is different, and the United States will not put expectations on it for no reason.
If any country does this, it means it is profitable."
"Japan's location is very lucky. After all, it blocked the Soviet Union's Far East and penetrated into the Pacific Ocean. This is considered valuable. In the future, Japan's strategic space will be relatively loose."
"Is that so?" Yachigusa Kaoru looked at the Englishman eagerly. During this period, she had also seen with her own eyes Alan Wilson's dramatic methods, and she couldn't help but believe these words in her heart.
"Of course!" Alan Wilson straightened his back and said to himself that you haven't seen my dramatic methods yet, such as the Canberra Japan Compensation Conference, which is the real pinnacle.
"Eat first!" Vivien Leigh's eyes flashed. She still remembered Marilyn Monroe saying that the main purpose of many American soldiers in Asia was to find exotic places.
Under the moonlight, the breeze blew in from the window and dried the sweat on the two people hugging each other. Vivien Leigh still solemnly asked the question in her heart, "You don't have any thoughts about the two of them, do you?"
"It seems like this isn't the first time you've asked?" Alan Wilson thought about it and replied with a smile, "What's wrong with you? You always ask questions like this for no reason."
"I just want to ask." Vivien Leigh hugged the man tightly with both hands and stared directly into the man's eyes. "You have a criminal record. This is what you did in New Delhi. How can I not think more about it?"
Ugh! Alan Wilson can't argue with that, because it's a fact, but it's not a mistake.
Facing a woman like Vivien Leigh who appears in his jurisdiction, who can control it? Showing off one's prime ministership is the instinctive reaction of most men.
"You still have ideas." Seeing that Alan Wilson didn't speak, Vivien Leigh said in embarrassment, "I knew you still like young people, maybe you have a plan."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What other plan is there? I can just talk to them directly. Ask them what they need, what kind of help I can provide, and what feedback they can give me.
, what other plans are there?”
Seeing the British treasure worrying about gains and losses, Alan Wilson started teasing him, as if he already had an idea in mind.
Revenge followed one after another. The British treasure took a lot of initiative that night. The battle that Alan Wilson faced was no easier than the two sides in the confrontation in Hanoi. He even slept until noon the next day.
After getting up, Xia Meng and Yachigusa Kaoru looked at Alan Wilson strangely, and they didn't know why. However, the confused imperial commissioner did not notice this.
He received a telegram from Whitehall about the progress of Britain's hydrogen bomb research. This was a major event and he couldn't let a few people know about it. The lessons learned from West Berlin being sold out in a daze had not been forgotten so quickly.
It's not that West Berlin couldn't be sold, but it was sold too cheaply. After thinking about it, Alan Wilson's second brother got the benefit.
For such a major matter of settling down, we must be wary of both the Soviet Union and the United States. After the United Kingdom broke its treaty with the United States after the war, restrictions followed one after another, because after the United States and the Soviet Union began the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union began to control uranium mines and uranium mines around the world.
Plutonium mining is strictly controlled, and the United Kingdom is also on guard against the United States.
Last year, the Soviet Union successfully tested a hydrogen bomb, breaking the United States' monopoly on hydrogen bombs. The United Kingdom, which was in a catching-up position, also tried its best, even allowing MI6, the earliest professional intelligence agency in modern society, to continuously collect intelligence.
Every time the United States conducts a hydrogen bomb test, British Navy ships will secretly sneak into the test area with these intelligence personnel to conduct data collection and survey. Whether it is a land test, an air test or an undersea test, the British will eventually appear.
It’s hard to imagine that the country that followed the United States while developing its own was the United Kingdom. In my impression, it was the Soviet Union that did this. But there is no doubt that it is the United Kingdom that is doing this now. The United Kingdom, which has mastered the experimental data of the United States, is now ready to come up with its own results.
Already.
In the telegram, Whitehall stated that the biggest problem was the test site. Just when everything was ready, the British suddenly found that they did not have a suitable testing site, so they could only conduct testing through overseas colonies.
It goes without saying that the British mainland is small. The hydrogen bomb is much more powerful than the atomic bomb, and it seems to be a problem in British Malaya.
In the end, the Labor government used this help to make a deal with the French, asking the French to provide a test site to solve the problem of the test site. The Gobi Desert between Algeria and Libya was initially selected as the site for the UK's first hydrogen bomb test.
Test site.
"The Gobi Desert at the border of Algeria and Libya?" Alan Wilson asked Lieutenant Colonel Klein if he had a map of Africa. He received a negative reply, "You are soldiers, why don't you even have a map?"
"Commissioner Wilson, this is Asia." Lieutenant Colonel Klein replied with a wry smile, "We also have to see the reality, right? We are serving in Asia, why prepare a map of Africa? If we are going to Africa, the Ministry of National Defense will prepare it.
"
"Okay! It's my fault." Alan Wilson apologized, thinking about the possible consequences of the nuclear test.
Obviously the time for the test has not yet been determined, but this is not a big deal. The big thing is what consequences will occur if Algeria is chosen as the test site. Although France provided the test site, it did not suffer a loss. France helped the British
It was a small favor, but once the nuclear test was successful, Britain would be doing France a big favor.
Isn't this a deterrent to Algeria's independent forces? Alan Wilson believes that France has made a lot of money. The UK has only saved the cost of nuclear test sites, which cost hundreds of thousands of pounds.
