In the next few days, in the building of the British Foreign Office, officials from the South America Office have been busy there. They dug out various information from the filing cabinets. A detailed plan requires a lot of information.
Assistance, fortunately they have made preparations for this in the past.
But at that time, they were planning to form a South American Spanish-speaking League to fight against the Brazilian Empire.
Britain, this troublemaker, has always nipped in the bud and done its work well in advance to prepare for emergencies.
Soon, a readjusted plan was sent to the Foreign Secretary's desk. While waiting to be submitted to the Prime Minister for approval, people who had been busy for several days could finally take a break.
London is foggy in winter, and facing the biting north wind, after walking out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building, James wrapped his upturned coat collar, naturally took out his pocket watch, took a look, and then took a leisurely look.
I continued walking forward, and when I met a patrolman along the way, the patrolman even nodded to the gentleman.
When returning the gift, a strange thought even came to James' mind - would the policeman be surprised if he knew that he was a spy?
Many years ago, the American Company sent spies in London in the name of commercial investigation. The espionage industry is highly professional, and some spies require long-term lurking, infiltration, and disguise.
In this era of backward information transmission, it is not difficult to pretend to be someone, especially in a place like the United Kingdom. Every year, many British people go to the colonies of the empire, such as India, Southeast Asia and other places, to contribute to the great cause of the empire, including many
Few people died locally - from malaria, cholera and other tropical diseases.
Colonization is never without cost. After military occupation, the maintenance of rule requires the dispatch of tens of thousands of administrative personnel. In this era of almost zero medical conditions, a small disease can kill a person.
Even the life of a family.
Since the 18th century, thousands or even tens of thousands of British people have been appointed by companies or governments to go to the colonies or do business or serve as officials at British ports every year, and every year thousands of administrative officials or businessmen's widows have
The children returned to England, and there were many orphans among them.
And at the cost of their imperial colonization, it was the efforts of these people that enabled the British to live a life that was envied by everyone in this era - even poor working-class families in Britain could at least achieve "
A happy life with enough meat and bread every day.
Correspondingly, London has not forgotten the price paid in the imperial colonial enterprise. Those orphans whose fathers died in the colonies can always be taken care of in some aspects, such as in civil service examinations and other aspects.
receive certain care.
James is such a "colonial orphan", but no one knows that his identity is fake.
According to the records, his father was a civil servant of the East India Company. His parents died of malaria. He returned to England when he was 12 years old. In fact, he also died in India.
It was with this identity that James entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the recommendation of others two years ago. Although he was only an ordinary employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he had access to a lot of confidential information - because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in London
There is not much confidentiality at all in the confidentiality work.
In the past few days, although James did not personally participate in the preparation of the "South American Defense League", as a participant, he has mastered all the contents of the plan.
Now, all he needs is to send this extremely important information. However, he has no meeting point or secret contact point.
Because in the secret files of the Investigation Department, he, codenamed "007", is a "submarine", the kind who has been lurking for a long time, waiting to be called.
Of course, they will also take the initiative to pass on information. For example, when the information they come into contact with is very important.
After returning home, he said hello to his landlord, Mrs. Snyder, and then went to the room on the second floor. James took out his pocket typewriter from under the floor and then got busy. Soon he was recreating the plan from memory.
Hit it out.
In order to protect these "submarines", not only their typewriters are specially made, but even the envelopes they send letters to are arranged in advance and have fixed addresses.
"It's just a post office mailbox."
After taking out the envelope, James looked at the address on the envelope and said to himself.
"I hope they can receive this letter."
The reason why James thought so was because these letters were given to him when he first started his mission.
Will they keep guarding that mailbox?
Early the next morning, James walked to work after breakfast as usual. Under the cover of the fog, he stuffed the letter into the mailbox.
The letter he sent that day was sent to a post office box in London through the post office system, and was then picked up by the recipient. After several twists and turns, it was not until the next day that the letter was delivered to the American Company's office in London.
at.
A few hours later, the newly released "South American Defense Alliance" plan was placed in front of Zhu Xianhai. Although the telegram alone cost several thousand taels, the actual value of this telegram was inestimable.
"You are indeed a shit stirrer!"
While sighing, Zhu Xianhai looked at this plan and had to say that the British did have some talent in making plans.
From forming an alliance to providing aid to inciting rebellion within South China, this is such a detailed plan that one might even wonder if it was a plan drawn up by an agency like the CIA during the Cold War.
But who would have imagined that this was the work of senior civil servants from the British Foreign Office?
Perhaps this is the invisible strength of the old empire!
After sighing with emotion, he asked again.
"Is this what it's all about?"
This plan can be used for reference. If Zhu Xianhai came into contact with this plan during the Civil War, he believed that he could extend the Civil War for at least another year.
Unfortunately, he didn't have much experience in this area at that time.
"It's a draft plan. More detailed content will be sent via mail ship in half a month."
Qian Zizhuang replied.
"But apart from the details of the implementation of the plan, the basic content is here."
"Leave this plan here. We can use it as a reference. We may not know where it will come in handy in the future. We definitely have more experience in many jobs than us British people. This is what we need to learn from."
"Yes, they do have a lot to learn from."
Nodding slightly, Zhu Xianhai asked.
"Then what do you think?"
"Lord, on the surface, this plan seems to be huge, but in fact, even if they lump Peru, Uruguay, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela into one ball, what's the point? These countries are all economically backward.
, and even the political situation is turbulent, even the British themselves don’t have much hope for them.”
What are the prerequisites for a successful strategy?
It must be strength.
Perhaps the British had very detailed plans, but the strength of these countries in South America did not allow it. What kind of countries were these? They were nothing more than agricultural countries controlled by soldiers, large estate owners, and churches.
Even if such countries formed an alliance, it would be an alliance that lacked strength and each had its own agenda. Such an alliance would not have any substantial impact on South China.
Because they are simply not good enough in terms of strength!
Even if Nan Hua doesn't fight, they will be thankful to God. If they take the initiative to provoke Nan Hua, do they have the ability?
"So we don't need to take this so-called alliance to heart at all, because they cannot pose a real and substantial threat to us."
After listening to Qian Zizhuang's answer, Zhu Xianhai nodded and said.
"It is indeed true. What is the real goal of the British in establishing this alliance? It is nothing more than to distract us and try to use a broad alliance to form a confrontational situation in South America. Once this confrontational situation is formed, it will inevitably have a negative impact on us.
It has a certain impact on the sales of goods, but as we all know, this impact will not last long. Their purpose is to make South American countries hostile to us by creating long-term confrontation. This is their ultimate goal - that is
Use this hostility to create division and opposition between us and South America and avoid the emergence of a unified South America. Of course, for us, this is also an opportunity!"
Halfway through his words, Zhu Xianhai had a contemptuous smile on his face.
"What has always alarmed us most is the attitude of Britain after we occupied Argentina. Will they directly go into battle naked? Now, this intelligence has strengthened my initial judgment. Britain will not, at least for the time being, fight for South Africa.
The interests of the Americas are personally involved in the battle. They even plan to use our occupation of Argentina to incite and plan the establishment of a broad opposition alliance in South America. This also means that we have won time. After all, it takes time for them to prepare for all this!
"
time!
For Nanhua, what is the most important thing now?
Of course it’s time!
Nanhua not only needs time to develop itself, but also needs time to digest the fruits of its current victory.
Zhu Xianhai didn't even mention the role assigned to Brazil by the British. What has he learned in the past ten years?
It's just that ambition must match strength. Otherwise, isn't Argentina the best proof now?
"What about Brazil?"
"Brazil is not important at all. No matter what role the British assign Brazil, it will not change our plans and will not have any impact on us."
Zhu Xianhai said this in an almost dismissive tone.
"The British can add drama to Brazil, or they can provide military assistance to the Brazilians and arm Brazil. But so what? Although Brazil has a large population, half of them are slaves. The only person who is more fearful is him
The country’s vast territory has endless development potential, but... is it possible for us to allow them to develop freely? Just like the British said in this report... If a neighboring country has a strong military strength, it must have potential
Threat. From this point on, conflict between us and the Brazilians is inevitable, regardless of whether there is Paraguay’s territorial issue or not.”
Many times, there is always a certain degree of inevitability between countries. Regarding what plans the British have for South America, Zhu Xianhai has already had his plan. In his plan, Brazil is an area that must be occupied.
It's not because Brazil is the only country in South America that may pose a threat to South China. It's because Brazil has the iron ore that South China needs.
What determined national power in the 19th and 20th centuries?
It’s steel!
This is an era when steel is both national strength.
Without enough iron ore, there is not enough steel. Without enough steel, the country's strength will be weak or even unworthy of mention.
Because of this, Zhu Xianhai had already focused his eyes on Brazil as a prey a few years ago, but at that time, he was unable to do anything because the distance was too far.
But what next?
South China and Brazil will become neighboring countries!
What does Brazil need to do in the next few years?
Just wishing for your own happiness!
Once the time comes, Nanhua will do the same without waiting for Brazil to take action!
"Now it seems that the British can be said to be friends of South China..."
When he said this, Zhu Xianhai's tone was full of ridicule.
"We would like to thank the British a lot. To express our gratitude, we should conquer Buenos Aires as soon as possible!"
