British civil servant

Today, Allen Wilson was relieved, he got the ball completely.Don't worry about not being fettered by marriage, Hepburn will one day be unable to bear this kind of underground love affair, and then leave herself.

With Sweden's full harvest of high-altitude and high-speed fighter jets, Alan Wilson returned to China. At this time, he felt that it was time to talk to his father-in-law about the plan for the development of British fighter jets.

He doesn't discriminate against fighter jets like handsome men in the sky. Ba Ye has also protected hundreds of millions of people for a period of time, but the UK can definitely do better and more in line with the requirements of the times for the British aerospace industry.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Although it is a bit embarrassing, it is compared to the Lightning fighter, which has been underestimated by the British Air Force since it first came out.The J-8II, a beautiful man in the air, is worth copying.

Although this fighter is at best a second-and-a-half generation, it is still a success compared to the Lightning fighter.When the J-8II came out, a certain big country was not considered an air power, and it was also a fighter that had fallen behind since its inception.

But that is compared with the third-generation aircraft of the United States and the Soviet Union. Apart from the J-8II war against the F22, the idea of ​​having to comfort yourself in difficult times, and only relying on the era when the J-8II came out, it can completely beat the same high-altitude and high-speed Lightning fighter. .

Alan Wilson happened to have a deep memory of the handsome man in the sky of a certain big country, even surpassing the later J-10.

It's a showdown. Among the keyboard warriors who proved that the J-8II can fight against the F22, there is also the current deputy secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If the United Kingdom cannot avoid serving the second-generation aircraft as a technical reserve, then it is better than the handsome man in the sky.

Allen Wilson probably knows the development of fighter jets. Simply put, first-generation and second-generation aircraft are not a problem for most industrial countries. If you want, Brazil in Latin America and India in South Asia can try it. For example, the glorious fighter jet .

It is the third-generation aircraft that really block the general countries and form a big filter. For Britain and France, it is already quite difficult for typhoons and gusts to serve. .By the time of the fourth-generation aircraft, even Russia began to be unable to withstand it.

In the era of second-generation aircraft, European countries can give it a try. If the Lightning fighter is not too ordinary, it is destined to change to another environment such as India. Alan Wilson would not think about taking out the J-8II. is bad.

"Is this the result of Pamela's design?" Marshal Mountbatten took the design sketch, glanced at it suspiciously, and then changed the topic, "But to be honest, it does look beautiful."

Marshal Mountbatten was also impressed by the beauty of the handsome man in the sky. This has to be said about the traditional ugly aesthetics of the United Kingdom. Obviously, the technical reserves are sufficient and the performance indicators are good, but the weapons that come out are awkward no matter how they look.

"I am also very shocked. Pamela's industry has been able to contribute to the country." Alan Wilson was decisive, completely ignoring his richest wife, and it was only half a month since he got the design drawings, and the demonstration has just been completed. , In theory, it is indeed a very good layout.

When bureaucracy and capital are combined, this situation will appear. It is not incomprehensible that Alan Wilson dared to come to the full-time commander-in-chief of the British Armed Forces with a picture. Alan Wilson represents bureaucracy and Pamela Mountbatten represents The arms dealer, Marshal Mountbatten represents the military, and a family can form a perfect logical closed loop.

"It adopts an all-metal semi-monocoque fuselage, with air intakes on both sides, and an aerodynamic layout with flat tail and double ventral fins under the delta wing. It is far more than the layout of the previous Lightning fighter. A generation of fighter jets, this has already been demonstrated, and most experts in the integrated joint aircraft manufacturing body think so."

"Sounds good. The Air Force really doesn't appreciate Lightning fighters very much." While talking, Mountbatten's eyes fell on the sketch of the handsome man in the sky again, which was pleasing to the eye.

One of the very famous things about the Lightning fighter is that it is famous for its traditionally weird British design. If there is a specific problem, no one can tell, but as long as you take a look at it, you will feel that this fighter is very weird.

Lightning fighter jets do not satisfy the air force. Another way is to purchase them from abroad. However, this is not a good thing for the current British aviation industry. Everyone knows that foreign purchases will hurt the country’s aviation industry. It is not that the UK does not have an aviation industry. The aviation industry is still quite strong.

Both strategic bombers and strategic transport aircraft have demonstrated their value. After these few months, it has also been proved that these models are what the UK needs. Not to mention anything else, after a certain major country announced a ceasefire, the Vulcan strategic bomber will come to the rescue The news from India has already spread, and the spread is strictly controlled within India, which is another problem.

"Looking at a fighter that is pleasing to the eye proves that it is excellent in aerodynamics and layout. It is weird to look at, and it is not comfortable to fly." Alan Wilson said good things to the handsome man in the sky, "The most important thing is that the production company Extremely reliable."

"Reliable? Yes, it is indeed very reliable." Marshal Mountbatten was taken aback, but he had to admit, would his daughter be unreliable?If he denies it, doesn't that mean that he, the active marshal of the United Kingdom, is also unreliable? "But you have to come up with a prototype, otherwise, the blueprints won't be convincing."

At the critical moment, Marshal Mountbatten still believed that the interests of his family coincided with the interests of the country, and decided to give his youngest daughter a chance to benefit the society.

The previous acquisition, Pamela Mountbatten, who almost swallowed half of the British airlines, finally had a chance at this time.Prove whether the Lockheed way is feasible.Just helicopters and composite armor are small things after all. The road to copying the F15 is not smooth. In many ways, it is indeed facing great difficulties to manufacture the F15.

Pamela Mountbatten has said to Alan Wilson before that the F15 project has gone too far.

Alan Wilson made second best for his wife, and copied the beautiful man in the air, but there is no way, he must be more realistic.

The commander-in-chief of the British armed forces is optimistic, plus the Minister of Defense Profumo, who has already been controlled because of the relationship between underage men and women, as long as Pamela Mountbatten can get the prototype out, Alan Wilson believes that the handsome man in the sky will appear over the UK.

In terms of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Britain’s biggest gain was not the finalization of a large arms sale order in India, nor was it taking the opportunity to blow up uncooperative tribes in Kenya.The former is no more than an arms sale, and the latter can only delay the effect.

Although Kenya was the base camp of the previous British African plan and there were white communities, compared with the local black population, it still could not achieve long-term stability.

The biggest gain is to rob Lubumbashi of Northern Rhodesia. Now that the Cuban missile crisis has been settled and the battle on the roof of the world has died down, it is time to take stock of the results.

This colony is rich in mineral resources, covers an area of ​​nearly 90 square kilometers, is all white, and has a small population. It should establish a special relationship with the British mainland in the new era.

This was said a long time ago, and now is the time to surface.People like Alan Wilson and Grace belong to the relationship of grabbing a lot of handles from each other.

On this day, Grace traveled through several stations and arrived in London with George Will, the High Commissioner of Northern Rhodesia. Alan Wilson and the other party looked at each other, tacit understanding.

Alan Wilson knew Grace's purpose, and Grace knew Alan Wilson knew his purpose.Africa's only predominantly white colony is about to complete a major transformation.

"Parliament and military organizations like Ustasha and Chetnik, there can only be one left." Alan Wilson nodded at George Will, and then put conditions on Grace, "Always make London feel at ease Yes, what do you think?"

Grace frowned. This was really a difficult question for him, and he said, "Why didn't Sir Allen say it before? I wasn't prepared at all."

"I'm also afraid that you are not easy to control. How can you make London feel at ease? If you keep the parliament, the British garrison will be responsible for the military. If you keep the military organization, you will have to hand over the air power. Otherwise, if you go back on your word, there will be unpleasant things in the future. Things are not good for each other."

Alan Wilson sighed, "I know this is a difficult decision, but I can't help it."

"Keep Ustasha and Chetnik! The air force is handed over to the British garrison." Grace said firmly without thinking too much, "We don't need the parliament, but we must keep our organization."

"Okay!" Alan Wilson nodded and picked up the phone, "Dixon, is the minister there? There is some very good news, which will be a big addition to the minister's glorious resume. Of course, okay, I am waiting for the good news .”

Most of the conditions were negotiated before, and there was no obstacle for both parties.For these Slavs in Northern Rhodesia, there is no peace of mind that Ustasha and Chetnik will not be disturbed by things like the parliament.

Northern Rhodesia has such a small population now, so what's the use of a parliament?Might as well be realistic.

It's time for the best sublimation this time, and it's time to reap some rewards. This even alarmed Aiden, who was preparing for the Anglo-American summit meeting. Will North Rhodesia, an inland colony, officially become an inalienable part of the UK? ?

"It's really good news. I believe the citizens will be very happy." Aiden said happily to himself. Although he could not compare with the post-war Labor Party Prime Minister Attlee on the economic level, but on another level, he reawakened the After the United Kingdom's prestige as a world power is confirmed, the general election can start after the end of the Anglo-American summit meeting.

On December [-], the Conservative Party cabinet formally accepted Northern Rhodesia's application to become a royal domain.After discussions at the cabinet meeting, the fact that Northern Rhodesia and Newfoundland royal territories had the same status was recognized, and a treaty was signed.

During this process, Aiden blocked all voices of doubt, whether they came from Washington or Moscow, and legally confirmed the fact that Northern Rhodesia would not secede from the United Kingdom.

From this moment on, the possibility of independence for the Northern Rhodesian royal domain no longer exists.Officially renamed the Royal Domain of Rhodesia to distinguish it from the Colony of Southern Rhodesia.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Just keeping North Rhodesia and Newfoundland alone is close to 150 million square kilometers of land. If we add the mainland, we are no worse off than the French. Algeria's usable land is not as good as ours."

At the Whitehall gathering, Makins swung his glass and talked about the big breakthrough that had just been announced.That is, the influence of the Rhodesian royal family's territory, of course, is not completely without doubts, "It's just that it's lonely overseas, and control is also a problem."

"Control is not about shouting slogans. First of all, we must ensure that the local economy is much better than that of the surrounding area. Then there are political structural issues. For example, Newfoundland has no army, and Northern Rhodesia has no parliament."

Alan Wilson took a sip of whiskey, and said calmly, "With the population of Northern Rhodesia, there is no need to worry about it in 30 to 10 years. What is the independence of several [-] people? What's more, independence is also a landlocked country. It is surrounded by black country."

"Speaking of which, South Rhodesia doesn't have any ideas?" Maggins asked. If there was, Alan Wilson must know. He guessed right, but even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.

"The most important thing is that the Malayan colonies, Newfoundland and Rhodesia can't help much." Alan Wilson was also a little distressed, "In addition to fishing, Newfoundland has no industrial support. North Rhodesia is inland In addition to mining and farming, the help to Britain is also limited, and Britain can maintain a relatively detached position, it still depends on whether Malaya is safe."

Britain has lost the British India that used to be a market, but as long as Malaya is still there, it is still close to the two populous countries.What's more, Southeast Asia itself has a large population, and the foundation to support Britain's international status is still there.

Now is the time to think about it, get rid of the less valuable colonies, and focus on maintaining a few key areas.Alan Wilson can promote the model of multi-monarchy co-governance in the United Arab Emirates after Uganda's independence, and then merge the scattered emirates.

The Middle East is still important, and British military forces still cannot be withdrawn from the region.This is also to prevent the oil crisis from happening.

After all, Britain is still on the Arab side, which is different from the US strategy of Israel and Iran.

Saudi Arabia cannot avoid the situation in the Middle East. Everyone knows that Saudi Arabia is the world's largest oil producer and has a very good relationship with the United States.

Saudi Arabia's pro-Americanism can be traced back to decades ago, because BP's oil exploration in the Middle East started from Iran, and it invested heavily at that time, so it ignored Saudi Arabia's request for oil exploration.

At that time, the UK was the empire on which the sun never sets, and the Middle East was dominated by the UK. It was beneficial to control the oil output by covering up the oil production left over from the exploration concentration.But it was picked up by the United States and established a good relationship with Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia is the country with the lowest oil extraction cost in the Middle East, and the second lowest is the United Arab Emirates, which was merged by a bunch of emirates.The United Arab Emirates is still in the hands of the United Kingdom at this time, and the British army's stay in the Persian Gulf also has the purpose of preventing Saudi Arabia from becoming bigger.

Alan Wilson helped his wife search for oil in Libya, Algeria, the Gulf of Guinea in Africa, Malaya, and the North Sea of ​​the United Kingdom.Not because the Mountbatten Group is untenable in the Middle East, but to prove that oil is not a scarce resource.

After preventing the collapse of the Breston Forest system, the United States held European countries hostage through its relationship with Saudi Arabia.It will not be easy for the United States to tie up oil by dispersing the share of oil-producing countries in the Middle East.

It is easy for the United States to convince the chiefs in the Middle East, but it is not so easy to suppress Britain, France, Germany and Italy in Europe, and the oil-producing areas already controlled by Britain, France, Germany and Italy. Oil beat the oil crisis.

"By the way, did you participate in the Anglo-American summit meeting?" Makins suddenly asked, "It seems that you have a good relationship with the Americans, and you are about to become the secretary-general of the cabinet, so you should establish a good relationship with the American side. "

"I only have a good relationship with some people in the United States." Alan Wilson sighed, "I have no connections with the Democratic Party of the United States, and I am also preparing materials for the UK-US summit meeting."

As for the information, it is nothing more than several massacres by the United States during the Korean War, and how many women have been raped in Japan for so many years, not only Japan and South Korea, but also South Vietnam, Iran, and the previous British and American partnerships to kill Mossadegh and Lumumba Records of attempts, etc.

If Kennedy wants to start from a position of strength, Alan Wilson will settle accounts with the Americans.The United Kingdom is a colonial empire, but the United States does not have the name of a colonial empire, and all it does is the work of a colonial empire.

"I don't know what the purpose of the United States is, but it seems to hope that the nuclear weapons of Britain and France will be under unified command."

"This must be one of the purposes." Alan Wilson continued after listening, "Maybe he also wants to set up a military base in the UK, hoping that the US aviation industry will not compete with the US aviation industry."

"The Americans regard us as a colony?" Makins said out of breath, "They are crazy."

"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Alan Wilson kept silent when he said this. Of course, his guesses have been made into reports and sent to Prime Minister Aiden.

Anyway, there are currently several aspects. The first is that Britain has repaid its war-time debts.

The second is that Britain has withstood the pressure and established a trinity nuclear strike.There is no debt held by the Americans, and I still have nuclear weapons. I don’t need the technology of the United States to be held hostage, so I shouldn’t bow my head and hand in my guns.

But it also depends on the price offered by the United States. There is a price for everything in this world. If you are not satisfied, you will have to pay more.

Maybe the United States can really offer a price that the United Kingdom cannot refuse?Although Alan Wilson's ordinary mind couldn't think of what price he could offer.

On this day, there was one thing that surprised Alan Wilson. The Aiden government appointed a new Minister of Education, and the original Minister of Education, Macmillan, really became the honorary president of Oxford University.

The new Minister of Education is not a cabinet minister, but it is surprising enough, at least Alan Wilson thinks so, because he knows this minister better than anyone else, Mrs Thatcher, and now she is the Minister of Thatcher .

Although Mrs. Thatcher became a member of parliament three years ago, there are hundreds of members of the Conservative Party, and it is not so worthy of attention, but being a minister is different even if she is not in the cabinet.

"Appointing a woman as Minister of Education won't bring her one-sided emotions into the education system?"

In front of Norman Brook, Alan Wilson expressed his doubts, or prejudice.

"You are younger, but you are also very young. The age of politicians is actually younger than the average age of senior civil servants in Whitehall." Norman Brooke was very surprised, why did his promising successor not seem to like the new education? Minister, there used to be festivals?

"The key is that she is a woman. Our views on women are not mixed with personal prejudice, but if it doesn't work, it won't work. They are too emotional and delay making accurate judgments."

Alan Wilson denied that he had a festival with Mrs. Thatcher. It was just a communication when he was young, and it was not a festival at all. He believed that the great female prime minister would not care about such trivial matters.

But seeing Mrs Thatcher enter the political center of Britain for the first time, he just couldn't help but want to talk about it.

I think he has worked hard for the United Kingdom for so many years. I dare not say how much contribution he has made, but it can also be said that he has worked hard and dared not slack off. Today, he has become the Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet and has not been promoted to Supreme authority.

A woman who doesn't see what she can do for the country is now a minister?He's unbalanced and justifiable.

But the imbalance is unbalanced. After a short thought, Alan Wilson decided to give the new minister a chance. After all, he will still have contact with the Minister of Education in the future when he is about to take over Whitehall.

Norman Brooke is happy to see this kind of scene. He hopes that the future cabinet secretary can have more contact with Conservative Party or Labor Party politicians, which will help safeguard the interests of Whitehall.

The supreme authority still doesn't know that the future secretary-general of the cabinet he selected has a complicated relationship with the newly appointed minister of education, and it is by no means a few words to comment on.

Relying on the training of actresses who have the same status as his wife, Alan Wilson has no embarrassment. He is congratulating the new minister and came to the Minister of Education to express his welcome.

"Your Excellency, Executive Deputy Secretary-General, or the Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet, thank you for coming." Mrs. Thatcher was startled, but quickly expressed her welcome, "I have just taken office, and I still need the help of civil servants."

"What is the minister talking about? We are just humble social instruments, holding the fruit of your deliberation."

Alan Wilson said with a smile, "I am not familiar with many things in the Ministry of Education. In fact, like the minister, I am still learning from scratch. I hope the minister can get familiar with the work as soon as possible."

"I will!" Mrs. Thatcher looked eager to implement the grand blueprint immediately, "Your Excellency, Deputy Secretary-General, I may need your help in the future."

"There is absolutely no problem. I personally look forward to becoming the support behind the minister." Alan Wilson nodded solemnly, "If you need anything, you can call me at any time."

The atmosphere of the conversation between the two was quite strange, although they kept a certain distance, it didn't seem to be the case.Of course, the melon-eaters who don't know the truth of the Ministry of Education have not discovered this at this time.

A blessing in disguise, Alan Wilson still faced the reality calmly, and decided to observe and observe first, maybe nothing will happen, and the two can live in peace.

Washington sent a message back, hoping that the Anglo-American summit meeting will be held in Nassau to discuss on the basis of the special relationship between Britain and the United States, and sincerely unite to face major challenges at multiple levels.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Compared with the same period in history, Alan Wilson feels that there are still some changes in Britain and history.The Nassau agreement blackmailed by the United States should not appear. Of course, it is not ruled out that the Americans will not change their original intentions and want to exert extreme pressure.

From Kennedy's personal point of view, maybe he really wants to give it a try. The cheerful American president, who is a well-known weak president in people's eyes, saw his approval rating soar after the Cuban Missile Crisis. Feeling good about himself, he said Maybe some excessive demands will really be made.

"Margaret, Margaret..." Alan Wilson, who was wronged by the Minister of Education, hugged the delicate body of Her Royal Highness to regain face. At the critical moment, half of his butt was considerate, not like another Mary Gretel is annoying like that.

Their eyes met, and the two stood still like sculptures. After a long time, Princess Margaret lied weakly in the arms of the deputy chief and whispered, "I seem to be working very hard today."

"Is Your Royal Highness satisfied?" Stretching out his hand to provoke Princess Margaret's chin, Alan Wilson talked about him from left to right, why he had to prepare for the Anglo-American summit meeting, which caused his mental tension, not because he was puzzled.

"It's okay to be rough once in a while, but this time I'll forgive you." Princess Margaret gave Ellen Wilson a white look, "If I wasn't in London, I don't know how many women you would harm."

In order to save the vast number of ignorant women in the UK, Her Royal Highness believes that she has paid too much. .

"How come, I am loyal to Her Majesty the Princess." The executive deputy chief who raised the trousers could not tolerate innocence and slander, even if it was a royal princess.

"Put it on quickly, there are so many words." Princess Margaret glanced at the duplicity man and reminded her in a strange way.

After some verbal disputes, the scene changed to the executive deputy minister being an important member of the royal family, planning a business layout.Everything is as it should be.

"I heard that Washington is going to hold a summit meeting with us?" Princess Margaret asked. Hand it over.

This survey caused a huge backlash in public opinion. The vast majority of respondents, whether they are supporters of the Labor Party or the Conservative Party, believe that the United States is using NATO’s public tools for private use.

There is also news that France has resolutely rejected the American claim and ridiculed it.

"There is such a saying." Alan Wilson nodded. As for why the people would know, isn't there a government insider who doesn't want to disclose his name?For example, the executive deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the deputy secretary-general of the cabinet, etc...

In terms of public opinion, Alan Wilson doesn't need to worry about it. The richest woman in Britain who is far away in Perth is better at this.
