British civil servant

There is no telling when a similarly unreasonable and equally short-lived conflict will erupt again, giving the loser a chance to win.

In this way, everyone will be able to recall the time they have experienced in the future, although no one knows what they are recalling.

Together with the open jeep, the body of Duncan, the Minister of Commonwealth Affairs who came to Somaliland in high spirits, was sent to the morgue of the military hospital. Don’t think it’s easy. Although Hargeisa is the capital of the colony, there are few who can handle the assassination Hospital, emergency rescue is not necessary, but to give Duncan a peaceful temporary residence waiting to return home.

There were two wounds on the corpse, and there was no need to distinguish the fatal wounds carefully. Whether it was the head or the chest, the penetrating wounds were fatal enough. To put it better, the minister walked peacefully, and there should be no long-term pain.

A series of crisp footsteps came from outside the silent morgue door. Alan Wilson appeared in the morgue wearing a purple mask that had always been quite coquettish. Color masks.

Taking off the mask, a cigar was already in his mouth, and he flicked the other hand. With the sound of metal, the flame ignited the cigar. Is the minister going more peacefully?"

"Conditions are limited. There is no embalmer in Somaliland." Evans dared not take a look at the corpse with his immediate superior. After all, the current honor is really embarrassing. "I don't know what's going on in the country now."

"What can happen? The sensational news in the newspaper, it is hard to say what has changed in other aspects." Alan Wilson commented indifferently, "In the final analysis, he is just a minister. Although he inherited Mr. Churchill's connections, but This connection has now disappeared with his death."

Evans didn't open his mouth. He felt that his immediate superior was underplaying too much, so he asked hesitantly, "Then what should we do now? Continue martial law?"

Alan Wilson threw away his cigar and stomped on it, pondered for a moment and said, "There must be an explanation. Is there any evidence found, otherwise it will appear that the local colonial government is too incompetent."

"There are only two shell casings, cigarette butts and an old-fashioned military uniform." Evans frowned. It's hard to say what conclusive evidence is there, and nothing else is found. Once the country investigates it?

"As long as there is." Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief, "If there is no accident, someone from the country will transport the minister's body back soon, and the investigation will follow. I believe we will not wait too long. "

"Then the independence ceremony?" Evans was a little confused, and the presence of his immediate boss made him find the backbone.

"In principle, Somaliland's independence will continue. Tell Egal, Lasman and others about the difficulties we are facing now." Alan Wilson said lightly, "We will not treat the local residents without conclusive evidence. Some harm, this reassures the two, other things can be discussed."

The trusteeship period has expired, and Somaliland's upcoming independence is so important that it cannot be terminated just because of the death of a minister. Otherwise, where is the authority of the United Nations?Anyway, what needs to be done still needs to be done.

"Let's wait for the country to deal with it." Putting on the coquettish purple mask, Alan Wilson turned and went back the same way. Sadness is absolutely sad. After all, he is a British minister, but as an indomitable adult man, he can't show this kind of sadness. Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face, which was also what he pursued.

An important cabinet minister, killed in the street in the colonial capital, Alan Wilson was to blame, and he locked himself up with Heidi Lamarr as his own punishment.

This is real life.Henceforth, the favorite quiet, tranquility, sweetness, and peace will be the prelude to death, or worse, a prelude to lies.

"Your wife will definitely come. She can't remain indifferent to such a big event." Heidi Lamarr, who was attached to a man like a pendant, still hadn't gotten out of the lingering fear during the day, with a look of horror on her face , "If she loves you, she will come right away."

"Actually, it's not necessary." Alan Wilson doesn't pay much attention to such things. Men and women think differently after all. "There are always various accidents in life. Anyway, I don't care about such things. I have a wife and children, and you are with me, so I am not so afraid of death."

Reaching out to pinch the man in protest, Heidi Lamarr stared into Alan Wilson's eyes and murmured tearfully, "You're amazing, you're lofty, you're fearless, but you also have to think about what other people think. It happens I would be sad on you."

At this time in the United Kingdom, the news of the death of Duncan, the Minister of Commonwealth Affairs, had appeared in the newspapers. Earlier, at the cabinet meeting, the Prime Minister and all the ministers were taken aback, and immediately decided to launch an investigation. At the same time, the Churchill family, Duncan's widow, was notified.

The British mainland passenger plane took off immediately, along with Alan Wilson's wife and sister-in-law, Ms. Pamela Mountbatten and Princess Margaret.

Heidi Rama's estimates were somewhat conservative, and even Alan Wilson himself was surprised. In this case, the princess came to Somaliland?Still a little too impulsive!Love brain attack?

The family members and Duncan's widow came to Hargeisa. Churchill's daughter Sarah also saw her husband's body.

"Where is the murderer?" Sarah asked with red eyes, "My husband was killed in the street, what were you doing at that time?"

"What are you talking about?" Princess Margaret became reluctant when she heard this, and defended her brother-in-law. "No one wants this kind of thing to happen. There is no point in accusing it now."

This is wrong. Alan Wilson is very willing for such a thing to happen. With over 40 billion pounds of overseas assets, let alone a minister, even a prime minister, he dares to go up and give it a try.

"We found two bullet casings and some evidence, and captured some criminal suspects, but at present there is not much evidence to lock down the criminal." Alan Wilson, who knew that the real criminal had long since disappeared, opened his eyes and told nonsense, telling the current objective Difficulties in conditions, concerns of international public opinion, everything should be considered in the long term.

"Don't talk about that, as long as you're safe." Pamela Mountbatten looked relieved, seeing that her husband was safe and sound, she didn't want to care about other things at all.

"You... and Her Royal Highness don't need to come here at all. Go and have a good rest first." Alan Wilson touched his wife's cheek and comforted softly, "It must have not rested well, so don't be so flustered in the future."

"Do you still want to do it later?" Pamela Mountbatten muttered in a low voice, tightly clutching her husband's arm and not letting go.

As for the matter of investigating the cause of the minister's death and locking down the suspects, it is natural that people from MI[-] will do it.

Hargeisa, under curfew, was silent at night, but many people still couldn't sleep and were busy with a series of follow-up reactions.

Duncan's widow has followed him into the body and returned to London immediately. It is estimated that there will be some reports of a glorious life. This is the way in this world. Often when a person dies, all shortcomings disappear at once, and everyone becomes respected. great character.

After communicating with London, Alan Wilson got a consensus that the process of Somaliland's independence will continue. Of course, whoever assassinated Duncan should also be investigated together.The withdrawal of the British army may have to be suspended for a while. Somaliland is about to usher in nominal independence, but the British army will not withdraw for the time being.

This is a compromise, but it is also the most practical at the moment. Alan Wilson asked if another minister should replace Duncan to preside over the independence ceremony of Somaliland. For example, whether Foreign Minister Macmillan has time.

This suggestion has not received a reply. Obviously, for high-risk areas, ministers also seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.What is certain is that Duncan's death will deal a heavy blow to the Churchill family's power in the Conservative Party.

The dead are dead, and the life of the living must go on. Alan Wilson inherited the minister's behest with a heavy heart, and officially announced Somaliland's independence from the United Kingdom a few days later.

After good communication and mutual understanding, Egal and Lasman, who were promoted to president and prime minister, announced that they would launch an investigation into the assassination of the British minister. Stability in Somaliland.

Immediately, 35 countries, including a certain major country, announced the recognition of Somaliland's independence, adding one more member of the United Nations.

"Involves the military?" Alan Wilson held the preliminary investigation report, "This result is not what London wants. If it is submitted, such a hasty judgment may not be suitable for publication."

Chapter 45 It is imperative to support the royal family

According to the preliminary investigation report, the location of the first crime has been found, and it is indeed not a hidden place.

Agents from MI[-] felt that the Somaliland garrison may have been the possibility of the assassination by veterans. Of course, there are also opinions that the locals did it, and the blame was placed on the British to prevent retaliation.

The truth doesn't really matter, especially to Alan Wilson, but the ripple effects of reporting should be considered.

Shifting the responsibility to Somaliland may affect the relationship between Somaliland and the United Kingdom after independence, while targeting the suspects on veterans may affect the relationship between the military and the government.

There is no third possibility. Could it be that a civil servant who has dedicated his life to the country is a murderer?How is this possible.

"Check out the garrison first. We don't want it to be reality, but out of prudence?" Alan Wilson thought for a long time, then lowered his voice, "Don't report to London yet, let's think of a plausible reason."

Alan Wilson has already decided to wipe the ass of the real murderer, the military, and not destroy the close relationship between the military and the government. Regarding the death of cabinet ministers, he prefers to deal with it internally.

Of course, for this reason, I have to communicate with my father-in-law to show that I am covering up a crime that may have been committed by a small group of people in the military. When something goes wrong, the first reaction is to cover up, which is normal.

Concerned, Alan Wilson returns to the flat to lay out what MI[-] suspects.

"Maybe the local colonial army did it?" Pamela Mountbatten was taken aback. "Is the news true?"

"It's just a possibility. I tend to be untrue. Duncan was the Minister of Defense before. The assassination must be related to the local garrison, which may make the marshal suspicious."

Although he knew in his heart that Marshal Mountbatten could have nothing to do, Alan Wilson still said with a face of a good British son-in-law, "If this is the case, even if I am suspected, I can only kill in Somaliland. Find a group of The scapegoat gives an explanation for this matter."

Pamela Mountbatten frowned. On one side was her father and on the other was her husband. These are the two most important men to her. She is now very embarrassed, "If it is the truth that no one wants to see, will you cover it up? risky."

"As long as I kill enough, no one will suspect me. It is only right to take revenge for the minister!" Alan Wilson's face was so indifferent, it really reached that point, there is no good way, but he would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go This trick.

Now Alan Wilson, it is impossible for Kennedy to be assassinated. When all Americans are suspicious, people dare to say that this is the truth, and the investigation report will not be released directly.

He doesn't have this authority, so he can only transfer the conflict and find someone else to take it on his behalf.

Of course, it's still too early to think so, and he comforted, "Maybe the matter won't be taken seriously, after all, it's just a minister. It's very normal for colonists to be assassinated, but it's Duncan's turn."

"You still have time to joke around." Pamela Mountbatten tapped her husband's chest lightly. "Fortunately, he was the one who died. If something happens to you, what will I do? The children are still young."

"Look at my wife." Reaching out and pinching his wife's chin, Alan Wilson said with a moved face, "Because I am too dirty, God probably doesn't accept me because I hate it, so this matter is unlikely. occur."

Alan Wilson made a solemn promise to his wife that it is unlikely that the garrison will do anything. Although MI[-] has extracted the hair of the Caucasian, it cannot be used as evidence. It may be wool. There are still a lot of goats in Somaliland. .

Pamela Mountbatten laughed through her tears and muttered, "You don't have to say that about yourself, I know you're good."

"Okay, let's talk about something easy." Alan Wilson sat down and put his wife on his lap, "When will the Land Rover production line be completed?"

"From the end of the year to the beginning of next year, it should be almost there." Pamela Mountbatten knew that her husband was changing the topic of assassination, and she was also happy to do so. It would be nice to talk about something light-hearted.

"Malayia has only one long-term rival, Japan supported by the United States." Alan Wilson often said, "In addition to population size, Malaya has advantages in other aspects. We must rush to make some achievements before Japanese cars go overseas. Even if it’s a price war and the auto industry doesn’t make money, I believe you can survive far more than the Japanese.”

The mainstream models in the world in later generations are German cars and Japanese cars. Nibuki likes to use the total sales to prove that Japanese cars are more popular than German cars. However, when he takes evidence, he likes to use Toyota Group to beat Volkswagen Group to prove his point of view.

There are not only Volkswagen Group for German cars, but also Toyota Group for Japanese cars. Lexus only sells better than Audi in some countries, and the average price in the world is cheaper than Audi. This is not counting the Porsche models of Volkswagen Group.

As for the comparison between German cars and Japanese cars, there are Mercedes-Benz and BMW for German cars, and Nissan and Honda for Japanese cars.I believe no one will think that the latter is greater than the former.

To put it simply, the Japanese car Toyota is very strong, the German car Volkswagen Group is popular, and BMW and Mercedes-Benz are all mid-to-high-end routes.The German Big Three are all very strong, and they overwhelm Japanese cars in the high-end market.

As for the current Japanese auto industry, it has fully recovered from the trauma of World War II. While satisfying the domestic market, it is considering expanding overseas.During the first months of the Korean War, the U.S. military ordered more than 5000 vehicles, and Toyota revived the company.

That year, an independent sales company, Toyota Motor Sales Corporation, was established.Three years ago, the Toyota Crown became the first Japanese car exported to the United States, and Toyota Motor Sales Corporation was also established in the United States at the same time.

At present, Toyota has not yet shown the terrifying output of future generations. Last year's annual output was 20 vehicles.Going to sea is also in the early stage of exploration, and Lexus will have to wait another 30 years to appear.

The way to contain Toyota now is to sell a novel model at a price no higher than Toyota.Although the Toyota Group is the largest automobile manufacturer in later generations, it has always adopted a conservative strategy in its long history, focusing on durable leather, high quality and low price.

Toyota will follow up and Japanese cars will follow up only if the opponent adopts new technology.Therefore, in the early days of Japanese cars going overseas, competing with Toyota with a novel but inexpensive model can make Toyota very uncomfortable.

In the third world, especially Southeast Asian countries, there is generally no research on what performance is. This is not to slander. The appearance is the black technology of this era. Alan Wilson's three tricks of copying shells are just useful.

"Just listen to me, Land Rover Discovery will definitely take the world by storm." Alan Wilson is full of confidence.

While the United Kingdom mourned the death of Commonwealth Secretary Duncan, new changes appeared in the already independent Congo.

Within a few days, Lumumba successively expressed his fierce criticism of colonialism, and publicly called on the Belgian colonial army and Belgian nationals to leave the Congo within a time limit.

Lumumba made no secret of his hostility to the colonists, and he was not enthusiastic about the United States, which seemed to have nothing to do with the colonists.At Lumumba's call, Congolese soldiers set off a mutiny, which the Belgian government called a riot.

Immediately after Katanga Province, the pro-Belgian leader Moise Cabenda Tshombe declared the independence of Katanga Province.A week after Congo's independence, the country has split into three parts.Parts of Congo's central government, pro-Lumumba parts and independence forces in Katanga province.

The situation in the Congo is changing, and Grace, who has returned to Northern Rhodesia, is very anxious. He has fulfilled his promise.It is not known when Alan Wilson will return.

Of course, Alan Wilson was not idle, and completed a [-]-page investigation report during this period.

It simulated the whole process of the day's assassination and gave the most professional analysis. Except for not catching the murderer, it was perfect, and no one could find fault.

Matters in London are naturally handled by Mountbatten, the full-time commander of the British armed forces, and Norman Brooke, the cabinet secretary.

Princess Margaret stood by the window, eyes slightly squinted, her rosy face was full of warmth, her whole body was hugged by the man behind her, obviously, the two had maintained their gazes for a long time.

Finally, the two froze, and Her Royal Highness turned her head back and kissed the man passionately, ending this wonderful journey.

Squatting down to cover her body again, the newly dressed Princess Margaret looked radiant and her mood improved.

"Don't change it?" Alan Wilson, who tightened his belt, reminded gently.

"It's okay." Princess Margaret didn't care at all, "It's easy for others to think too much about changing clothes."

"That's true, but is it okay?" Alan Wilson nodded. He actually had some reservations, but the princess didn't mind, and he couldn't say anything, mainly because he was afraid of being spotted.

Princess Margaret pinched her waist with both hands, looked up at her brother-in-law, "I don't want you to protect me, but now it's over, dear brother-in-law, where's your guts?"

"I do have courage, but I usually don't show it." Alan Wilson said in his heart, your brother-in-law and I have just killed a minister, and the courage is definitely among the best in the British Empire. The previous behavior of each other has also fully confirmed his courage. .

But in the face of Her Royal Highness, who is full of charms, he will definitely not feel uncomfortable at this time, so that he will not know how to flatter him.

Due to the deteriorating situation in the Congo, the African center has become unstable. After discussing with London, Alan Wilson is about to leave Somaliland, an unforgettable place, and pay attention to the safety of African mines again.

"It's because of your support for the royal family that I give you this kind of treatment." Princess Margaret sat down with her legs tightly together, but her face was a little unnatural due to the movements, "The Queen expressed support to the Overseas Assets Management Committee I am very pleased with the development of the royal industry."

"Dear Queen, I definitely don't know that Her Royal Highness has sacrificed too much." Alan Wilson whistled frivolously.

The Thousandth Chapter 16 The Congo Crisis

A lot of things have happened recently, Britain and the United States, France and the Soviet Union, Britain and the United States, Britain and France, one after another is dazzling, and the entire northwest of Shanxi has become a mess.

Even Alan Wilson, who has always been methodical, feels overwhelmed and doesn't know where to start.

For him, this is a very rare thing. He has always believed that under the cover of time, everything he wants can be done. If he can't do it, it must be because there is not enough time.

This complaint was known by Pamela Mountbatten, and she could only comfort her husband that he had done enough. Many things could change the course of history without personal efforts. "In any case, they are the most patriotic and The one who puts it into action."

"Even if there is only one person in the world who praises me, as long as this person is you, then all my efforts will not be in vain." Alan Wilson's frowning brows relaxed, and the momentary dejection was just a small episode.

The death of Duncan, the Minister of Commonwealth Affairs, has long been thrown out of the sky by him. In the final analysis, he was just a minister.

Perhaps the status is a bit special, but it is not indispensable to the United Kingdom. If it has any major impact, it seems that there will be one less so-called patriot who may betray the United Kingdom to the United States in the future.

From the perspective of Chinese tradition, there are no two days, and there cannot be two speakers in a country. Duncan can talk about being patriotic, but he may not love Britain at that time. Naturally, Alan Wilson will not have any psychological burden.

"Go home, dear, the situation in Congo has deteriorated, and I may have to be busy for a while." After the rocket ride, Alan Wilson put his arms around his wife's delicate body and begged, "I must go and see if I can learn from it." for the benefit of Britain."

"I don't want you to go. There was an assassination just now." Pamela Mountbatten sighed quietly. She knew that she was powerless to stop what her husband wanted to do, so she could only whisper, "Be careful."

"Definitely." Alan Wilson kissed his wife's forehead, "I will definitely strike first if anyone is against me."

For example, the Minister of Commonwealth Affairs who had just blossomed, after Duncan died, Alan Wilson first waited and watched. Through subsequent developments, it was concluded that Duncan himself was interested in overseas assets, or the current government thought so.

If it was Duncan's personal thoughts, then the problem has been solved.If it is the idea of ​​the current government, then it needs to be delayed. However, the Conservative Party has just come to power and still has a relatively long time in power, so delaying time may not necessarily be effective.

That may be a long-term plan. At least with the blessing of the huge colony, Whitehall can fight the cabinet.

Politicians are powerful at home, but they are always one in the colonies, and civil servants are also one, a whole.

Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his wife and sister-in-law board the flight home with his own eyes. At this special time, he still does not want his relatives to get too close. Staying away from the whirlpool is out of safety considerations.

Alan Wilson enjoyed the treatment that Duncan did not enjoy. Along the way, he was escorted by British Air Force fighter jets in the colonies. This was also in exchange for Duncan's death.

In other words, Duncan's death made Alan Wilson justifiably raise the danger of working overseas, in exchange for this kind of treatment.
