British civil servant
Page 289
This kind of seemingly well-intentioned help, just like the British and American armies, is only superficially fair.Who doesn't know that the land area of the United Kingdom and the United States is not at the same level, and the influence of the United States stationed in the United Kingdom on the United Kingdom is far greater than the influence of the British army in the United States.
Ingrid Bergman stopped talking, waiting for the man's explanation, and Alan Wilson didn't make a fool of himself, "The United States wants the order in the hands of Britain and France, and I know in my heart that it is impossible to keep everything, so I want to use a smarter way." In fact, as long as you have money, what can’t you talk about?”
"Let's use our popularity to spread the word about the sale of the private island. Attract buyers?" Heidi Rama raised her lips slightly, "Is this considered using us?"
"Don't use this word as a family to hurt feelings." Alan Wilson smiled slightly, "You may not believe it, but I am indeed helping my motherland. It is true that my colleagues will get some benefits , but this is not contradictory, and it is possible to balance public and private interests.”
"What you say makes sense." Heidi Lamarr said something, thinking about how to help.
The United States in this era is really powerful. Unlike Alan Wilson, Heidi Lamarr can use data analysis through various materials and intelligence, but she has also stayed in the United States for a long time and knows that the rich people in the United States are real. The country is so rich that there are quite a few people who have the financial resources to buy islands.
As my man said, there are great interests in this matter, and only a colonial empire like Britain, which doesn't care much about colonies, has this capital.
"Like France selling Louisiana?" Heidi Lamarr eagerly tried to use this example for comparison.
"It's not exactly the same, the value is different." Alan Wilson nodded and shook his head, ambiguous about this nondescript comparison, the value of Louisiana is much greater.
While the two were thinking about it, Alan Wilson had already got up and walked behind them, bent down and quickly kissed Heidi Lamarr and Ingrid Bergman on the faces, it was no big deal , I just want the same treatment as my husband.
Because they had to wait for the response to the sale of the island, the women were not in a hurry to return to Europe and continued to stay in British Malaya.
Alan Wilson has other things. It is now [-], and it is time for the election again. He does not want the Conservative Party to perform a free fall movement on stage. After two years, Churchill no longer insists on it. The first phase of the post-war Britain passed smoothly after he abdicated and let Xian step down as the leader of the Conservative Party.
A movie that praises the government is considered the most boring program in history, but it depends on how to look at it.If a film company headquartered in Paris created such a film, it might cause a sensation and have a positive effect on the election of the Labor Party.
At this moment, Ingrid Bergman was really surprised. This man's purpose has already been to interfere in the election. "It's surprising that you think about it. I even doubt that you can interfere in the election of the United States."
"It's not easy to interfere in the elections in the United States. There are too many insiders in the elections where the Electoral College plays a huge role. European elections are all simple majority. As for some information about Beria's death, I will find a way to find some for you. For reference." Allen Wilson said as he sat directly between the two.
"Why did you do this?" Heidi Rama was puzzled. Whoever the politician is on stage will affect this man?
"We prefer the nationalization policy of the Labor Party. This is also to help my colleagues. Many islands are in the hands of my colleagues. Although I can greet them through the Overseas Assets Management Committee, they are the real chief executives of one place."
The trivial matters have been discussed, and Alan Wilson wants to get down to business now. He tiptoedly locked the door and decided to stay in the hotel where the distinguished guest stayed for one night. He has worked hard for the British Empire, can't he enjoy it?My second brother is invincible...
This telegram soon aroused discussions in Whitehall. It is naturally impossible for Alan Wilson, who was [-] kilometers away, to know about the specific discussions. He is still in Malaya taking care of public and private affairs, showing extraordinary energy.
The battle at Dien Bien Phu, the construction of the cultural center, and even the needs of the patrons were all covered.
Who is calling invincible?Which one is invincible?Even the sunset of the empire is gone!
"Commissioner, something happened. Is the Administrative Bureau interfering?" Richard contacted his immediate superior by phone.
"Why are you nervous? India has infiltrated? It's not like it hasn't been here before!" Alan Wilson asked with a microphone between his neck, "Is it important?"
"Yes and no!" Richard's voice came from the microphone, "That's right, according to the regulations you made before, there are emotional disputes among colonial subjects, and they are repatriated according to their place of origin. One thing just happened. I want to ask , Are we repatriating, or are we ignoring the occurrence of lynchings."
"This matter!" Alan Wilson sighed inexplicably, understanding Richard's difficulties.
The management of the colonies by the British generally followed the original local laws, so the Qing laws in Xiangjiang were not abolished.But there is something to be divided. Some of the original laws that were too cruel were strictly prohibited by the United Kingdom. Widow self-immolation in India has been passed down for thousands of years, but it was finally corrected by the bayonets of British soldiers.
Theoretically, those who resisted the colonization in British Malaya were beheaded according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, and they were also very cruel according to the law of peace.Although Alan Wilson still suppressed severely when he took office, he also avoided execution with such punishment.
If it was before, Alan Wilson must have repatriated people to Africa together with the woman involved, and the matter would be over.
But just recently, Alan Wilson is thinking about how to set off a wave of xenophobia and shape the difference between us and them in the British Malaya colony!This thing can be used.
"Waterboarding or stoning?" Alan Wilson was silent for a long time, and asked into the microphone. He was asking whether the local people involved were Chinese or Malays, and he was doing an immoral act. Shariah is stoning.
"Waterboarding!" Richard replied quickly, and then asked, "Commissioner, are we interfering?"
"Don't interfere, we will severely condemn this matter after it is over, but it is best for this matter to happen." Alan Wilson finished thinking, "Give the African colonists involved to the Chinese, and let the Chinese execute them .”
"Ah?" This answer made Richard a little surprised. After all, Britain is a modern civilized empire, and it is still very hostile to some cruel punishments. Otherwise, it would not have gone to war at the beginning, and widows were strictly prohibited from self-immolation in British India.
"Ah what? This is a good thing for shaping the conservative atmosphere of the Malayan colonies. In principle, we don't want this kind of thing to happen, but in reality, the Chinese are very dissatisfied with this matter, and we can't help it."
Then Richard heard a busy tone, and he seemed to hear a female voice on the microphone, "You are pressing my hair..." But it seems that the commissioner's wife does not have Malaya!
If Richard hadn't reported this incident, the men and women involved might still be alive, but the report was made out of the support of his immediate superior, and the result would be that the two would definitely die.
For Alan Wilson, he wants to consider the future of 1000 million people in the colony, and hopes to shape it according to what he thinks is right, so the death of these two people is valuable.
He didn't ask what the names of the people involved were, and it didn't matter which other colony was involved.
When a person is dead, he will criticize this kind of lynching for the use of the colonial government, but he will still acquiesce in the existence of a similar lynching. In the final analysis, morality is not important.
Chapter 755 Geneva Conference
This is also a necessary step. Sometimes happiness must be built on the suffering of others, especially from the perspective of the country.
At the peak of Britain, even the poor in the East End of London were equally proud of the British Empire.
Whether the happiness of British Malaya is based on the poverty of neighboring countries or on the further third world, it must cultivate a certain degree of xenophobic thinking.
Alan Wilson also knew that this seemed to be an unspoken past, but it was easier to operate.
He introduced the concept of political correctness in British Malaya, not to mention whether it can be achieved. The biggest political incorrectness is that Britain is really a colonial empire.Using political correctness may cause backlash in the future!
Following his statement as the imperial commissioner, no matter whether the men and women involved were a coincidence or a real love story.Fate is doomed, and Alan Wilson regards it as a victim of cohesive colonial identity.
With the attitude of the colonial government, this matter appeared in all the newspapers in an instant. As for the Chinese newspapers, it was regarded as an act of immorality. The violence fueled the flames.
Even the princess, who came to the door again to shoulder the heavy responsibility, heard this matter that many people have paid attention to, "It's just that she has a relationship with a black man, why do most of the voices seem to be shouting and killing?"
"Where did the princess hear about this?" Alan Wilson yawned. It was beyond his expectation that his sister-in-law knew about it, but he didn't think about it, if most people in the colony knew one thing , but the colonial government didn’t know about it. Doesn’t that mean that the colonial government was incompetent?Since knowing it will cause discussion, it is only natural for the princess to know about it.
"Brother-in-law, of course I heard what our officials said, but you seem to have the power to stop it? In this colony, what you say is the law." After Margaret replied, she asked rhetorically, "But if you have a relationship, you have to throw it away. Life?"
"This is the case with racial issues. When it's not about you, you can be confident. Let alone another race, even your own ethnicity is the same. There are stonings in many places in the Middle East." "I have no reason to abuse my power to stop it, which could cause trouble," he said.
Alan Wilson didn't say that he was in favor of making things big, and that sacrificing two lives would make it easier to achieve his goal.
"But that's two lives after all!" Princess Margaret opened her mouth, but she still couldn't be calm.
"Everything has a price, including human life. Otherwise, how can there be such a profession as a killer in the world? Your Royal Highness, there are widespread lynching problems in the world. In principle, we should do something, but it is best to do nothing."
Alan Wilson said that it is better to let nature take its course, and it is best for the princess to pretend that she does not know about this historical norm.
In order to change the subject, the imperial commissioner let the princess sit on his lap and talked about some interesting things to change the subject.
Although the position he put in his hands at the same time, in the dynasty of China, it was enough to exterminate nine ethnic groups, and he was not qualified to talk about cultural traditions with dignity.
But the humming and chirping princess didn't object, and some demons and goblins made irresponsible remarks that round.
"Why don't those women leave?" Princess Margaret's eyes seemed to be able to drip water, and she asked tenderly.
"I have an idea that I'm discussing with them. Although these celebrities are not very rich, they are very well-known. I can help you inquire about some non-confidential information." Alan Wilson nodded, asking his sister-in-law to light a cigarette for himself , His hands are busy, and he really doesn't have time now.
"There is nothing to discuss, you won't lie to me." Her Royal Highness put the cigarette into the mouth of the imperial commissioner with a rosy face, and lit one.
Phew... Ellen Wilson said contentedly, "It is estimated that Whitehall will come up with an attitude that will be supported by colleagues, and Her Royal Highness will just watch it when the time comes."
With his sister-in-law's guarding and stealing, Alan Wilson is also a lot more courageous. Of course, he will not patronize his second brother's ideas and do things. For example, he respects Marilyn Monroe very much.No matter how you say it, you are conceited about the talent of the prime minister, how can you be unable to walk when you see a beautiful woman?
When Alan Wilson lived among the thousands of flowers in the British colony, the French colony was also quite lively.The situation in North Vietnam at this time, the situation of the French army is infinitely close to that of the Cannon Party in [-]. The well-prepared offensive went through a full-scale offensive, focused offensive, and reached the stage of focused defense in a short period of time.
Among the large cities in North Vietnam, the Dien Bien Phu defenders relied entirely on air transportation for supplies.The only thing better than the Cannon Party is that the Cannon Party usually doesn’t even lose a few battles with a better exchange ratio in its life. The French army is not as incompetent as the Cannon Party, which caused heavy damage to the attacking Vietnamese army.
The cause of the Battle of Dien Bien Phu is very simple, that is, the use of central flowering tactics to inflict heavy losses on the Vietnamese army.When a strong army is surrounded by a weak army, it is usually thought of a flowering in the center.Come to an anti-encirclement and take advantage of the situation to wipe out the whole army, so as to achieve the goal of turning defeat into victory.
The artillery party in the Menglianggu battle also thought so, and directly gave away the ace unit that claimed to have ten 74th divisions that could unify the country.
Nawal planned to construct a strong and offensive fort there, thereby luring General Giap into a battle and then crushing him with superior firepower and equipment.
But during the fight, Nawal discovered that things were not so simple. The Vietnamese army had an unusually large number of heavy weapons.It is far from an armed force dominated by light infantry as he thought before.
The Vietnamese army tried to expand the results of the battle against the airport with special forces, but also gradually weakened the offensive after suffering a large number of casualties.
The garrison, whose personnel were at an absolute disadvantage, survived fierce battles and suffered considerable casualties.Vo Nguyen Giap attempted to breach the internal defenses of the French camp.But thousands of casualties fell short of the target.However, the losses of the Vietnamese army can be compensated, but the French side cannot.
This had particularly serious consequences for the French, as North Vietnamese troops could hold the northeast entrance to the center of defense, less than a mile from the central position.The defense system is restricted all around, and the situation is precarious.As a result, the target area of enemy artillery fire has shrunk, and airdrops of supplies have also been severely affected.
What makes the French army worse is that the rainy season has arrived, and the rainy season has become another enemy of the French army.The sky was leaden gray, and the rain was pouring incessantly, turning the dry earth into a mudslide.
The Vietnamese were perfectly attuned to the conditions, but the trapped French struggled to navigate the narrow, dirty, unwalled trenches.
Heavy rain penetrated even the flimsy roof of the shelter.The condition of the wounded is deteriorating extremely, the operation conditions are extremely difficult, and the wound will soon die due to infection.Clouds and haze hampered aerial resupply.
The downpour became the last straw that crushed the French army. At this point, Brigadier General Castries, the commander of the French army at Dien Bien Phu, had to seek help from Hanoi and Saigon. The Dien Bien Phu defenders could no longer accomplish their previous goals.
The battle at Dien Bien Phu seems to have nothing to do with Alan Wilson, and he thought so at first, but Alan Wilson, who received a telegram from Whitehall, got the news that the Geneva Conference to seek a peaceful solution to the Korean issue and the Indochina Peninsula issue will be held soon. opening.23 countries including China, the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia participated in the meeting.
Among them, the Korean War has ended, and France is fighting Vietnam to the death, which has become the main topic of the Geneva meeting.
The United Kingdom also participated in the Geneva Conference, and its position was of course to help France within its capacity, especially when the Battle of Dien Bien Phu was at a critical moment.
Whitehall remembered again that there was a rising star who was very good at Eastern issues and was working as a commissioner in British Malaya.So he asked Alan Wilson what he thought by telegram.
"Vietnam is in the rainy season. The land passage from Hanoi to Dien Bien Phu has been interrupted. The rainy season has caused the air supply to be interrupted. France can no longer hold on. I have heard that the French army is preparing to rescue, but the defenders of Dien Bien Phu are French soldiers and the Foreign Legion. Composition, the combat effectiveness of other troops is not as good as the former.”
Allen Wilson immediately wrote what he knew in the telegram, expressing that the French army was not optimistic.Although the French army killed many Vietnamese soldiers, the war was not a simple exchange ratio.
"About the Geneva conference, my personal suggestion to the country is to help France get in touch with China if possible. China is Vietnam's largest foreign aid. As long as we have a good deal with China, Vietnam has no right to make irresponsible remarks. Not to mention Vo Nguyen Giap, A soldier like Wen Jinyong."
A few hours later, Alan Wilson received another telegram from London, "Is this idea feasible?"
"China's neighboring countries generally have inner fear of China. Although China has faced the impact of Europe in modern times, it has always been that giant to neighboring countries. Vietnamese people also have this kind of fear in their hearts. The Korean War has just ended , China has proved that its military strength has been achieved through the Korean War, and there is no need to start another war.”
"In addition to Vietnam's fear of China, China does not like the fact that there are truly independent countries around it. If we maintain the division of North and South Vietnam and concentrate our efforts to keep South Vietnam, I believe that even if China does not express its position on the surface, it will be extremely concerned in its heart. supported."
Provoking the relationship between comrades and brothers?Alan Wilson doesn't think so, it is only because of his own problems that he can be used.
In the Geneva Conference in history, North Vietnam itself failed to achieve the goal of unification. Alan Wilson has real history to endorse, and directly helped London find the simplest path.
At the end of April, the historic Geneva Conference was held, and at the same time, the Battle of Dien Bien Phu came to an end.Both the French army and the Vietnamese army knew that the Geneva Conference had been held. In order to increase the weight in their own hands, the battle became more and more cruel.
Chapter 756 The problem is not Vietnam
On the Dien Bien Phu position, facing the swarms of Vietnamese soldiers, the French soldiers still maintained high morale.But the weather has become extremely bad, and the thick black clouds linger for a long time, and the air supply can no longer be counted on.
This is more terrible than anything for French soldiers. Logistical support is the key to any war. No one can fight hungry. Any unfavorable conditions can be overcome by the French defenders, but this is not enough.
The dark clouds and torrential rain seem to indicate the result of the French defenders. Even the optimistic soldiers will not feel better in the face of the supply that will be interrupted at any time and the bad weather.
Fighting has now become a kind of torment. Facing the completely interrupted land passage, the French army in Hanoi has little choice, and the plight faced by the French also makes the United Kingdom empathize.
"Is there really nothing to do?" General Bilton inevitably wanted to think of a way for the French, but everyone was a European country.
"Except for the British army landing in Tokyo Bay, there may be no reason for the French army to persist to the end." Alan Wilson spread his hands and made a suggestion that the UK would never approve, "But we all know that this is impossible Yes. Our army is not necessarily more courageous than the French army. But it is true that the French have fought hard since the First World War."
Now that the Geneva Conference is being held and the French are trapped in Dien Bien Phu, how could London agree to the dispatch of British troops?
Although the British army has an advantage over the French army in some places, London will not agree.
"That's true. We can't do much to face this situation. But we will not choose such a stupid place as Dien Bien Phu to fight." General Bilton and Alan Wilson agreed on this point.
"No way, our situation in Malaya is the same as that of France in Vietnam. As a member of NATO, we have an obligation to the security of Europe, and it is impossible to fight in Asia with all our strength." Allen Wilson sighed.
This is also one of the difficulties facing France. As a member of NATO, it has obligations to NATO. It is difficult for France to provide a sufficient number of aircraft, especially heavy bombers, to Southeast Asia.The United States could have changed the balance of forces without large-scale involvement, but it refused to provide air support.
In fact, this is also the reason why Alan Wilson believes that the purpose of the United States is not pure.The United States can completely provide the bombers that France needs most, maintain the control advantage of the French army, and at least allow France to leave decently when it has the advantage.
The cost of providing bombers is far inferior to the military assistance provided by the United States to France.The United States chooses military aid that costs more, but does not give the most effective bombers. This kind of aid is very strange.
It's a pity that the British Warrior strategic bomber has just completed acceptance. Even if it is a generous reason to share the latest strategic weapons with France, it will take time for the bomber to enter service. It is really not helpful at this moment.
"If possible, the strategic bombers in service should be deployed in Malaya immediately." Through this war, Alan Wilson realized from France how important air power is.
"France's current dilemma is still in logistics. Fortunately, we have a strong navy and shipping power, and Malaya is a peninsula, which can give full play to our British advantages." General Bilton also has his own views, from the perspective of a bystander Look at the plight of France.
Specifically, from the perspective of the battle itself, logistical support is undoubtedly a decisive factor, and the Viet Minh clearly has an absolute advantage in this regard.Except for part of the food and the materials that the French airdropped into the hands of the Vietnamese, the materials needed by the Viet Minh in the campaign were all provided by China.It is difficult to determine the route for transporting these materials, because there are too many paths and too complicated.
The thick clouds in the rainy season also protected the Viet Minh convoy from French aircraft to a considerable extent, and at the same time seriously hindered the French army from accurately airdropping supplies.
"We should feel that the British Army in Malaya is composed of citizens of the country." Alan Wilson also pointed out the complex ethnic problems of the Vietnamese French Army, while the British Army in Malaya did not have this problem.At least most of the British troops in Malaya were British citizens, and only a small part were soldiers from the Nepalese battalion.
The difficulty of managing Nepalese soldiers is much easier than that of the North Africans in the French military camp, not to mention that there are not many Nepalese.
The way the two discussed finally helped the French. The fundamental purpose of the discussion was to prevent France's current plight from falling on Britain.
If France eventually had to withdraw from Indochina, Britain, which still occupied British Malaya, would inevitably feel alone.
As for distant Europe, they are also trying to find ways to help France out of its predicament.This time the United States is also very sincere. Even if the purpose of the United States to help France is not pure, it must show for itself.
Because in addition to the Vietnam issue, there is also a North Korea issue, and the United States cannot express double standards at the same time in a meeting.The 23 countries participating in the Geneva meeting this time were of course divided into two camps, and colleagues discussed the North Korean issue and the Vietnam issue.
Washington's attitude is to resolutely resist proposals such as the so-called national elections.Regardless of the issue of North Korea or Vietnam, we must resolutely veto the so-called elections.Because according to the current public opinion, the election is to choose the Soviet Union. Whether it is North Korea or Vietnam, a really fair election will only drive away the power of the United States.
Britain strongly agrees with this point. Britain still has vast colonies, so elections are very disgusting.
The United Kingdom and the United States quickly reached a consensus that whoever dares to mention national elections to determine the future is politically incorrect and the enemy of the United Kingdom and the United States.
Although the situation in Vietnam was more urgent and the Korean War was over, because Washington believed that the North Korean issue was more important to the United States, the final conclusion was to talk about the North Korean issue first.
