British civil servant

Of course, this kind of trivial matter will not become the subject of discussion between the two. Only after seeing Anna did he know that there are indeed talented people in this world. Seeing the magnificence, the average of Russia in later generations is d, which seems to make sense.

Seeing that the British occupation forces were about to commit crimes again, Anna couldn't help gnashing her teeth, "Sometimes I really want to smother you to death."

"It's also a good way to die." Alan Wilson replied vaguely, without the usual eloquence, but full of compromises to bow to the evil forces.

When I went to work in Whitehall the next day, I heard Wick conveying the fury of the Foreign Secretary Patrick. Alan Wilson finally remembered that he was the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to find out the situation.

Obviously, this confrontation in the Bay of Bengal, with the prolongation of time and the land victory of India's solid advantage, has become a negative asset for the dispatched U.S. Navy. Surrendering a similar act of bankruptcy instead accuses Britain of turning its back on the special Anglo-American relationship.

At the critical moment of showing its muscles to the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom actually took actions that disappointed the United States and stood on the sidelines!

After listening for a long time, Alan Wilson asked, "Who said this?" He nodded when he heard Kissinger's name.

Although Kissinger has the image of an old fox in later generations, it was all created. At least during the third India-Pakistan war, Kissinger's performance was actually very average.

"Maybe it is because of the fear that the failure of this confrontation will affect the general election?" Alan Wilson gave his own guess, and then launched a personal attack on Kissinger. , Why don’t you dare to fight with the Soviet Red Navy? Oh, it’s uncomfortable now, remember the British Royal Navy?”

"In South Asia affairs, the interests of the United Kingdom and the United States are indeed inconsistent, and the interests of the United Kingdom are in India." Alan Wilson frowned, "But? It can be remedied in some details."

"Of course it's Sikkim. Leave this matter to me. My minister." Hearing Patrick's inquiry, Alan Wilson directly agreed. He had been prepared for a long time. Didn't he just want Britain to overdo some traditional spheres of influence? You, otherwise his son would not have gone to Sikkim for nothing?

Facing the powerful offensive of the Indian army, although the Pakistani army also delayed the pace of the Indian army in local battles such as the frontier battle of Ratpur, the defensive battle of Khulna, the counterattack of Kushtila, and the defensive battle of the Deba River, giving the enemy It caused heavy casualties, but it was unable to reverse the overall situation after all.

More than a month has passed since the start of the India-Pakistan war. In addition to the fact that the main attack direction on the western front was not smooth at the beginning, and later re-entered the offensive rhythm, India has realized its strategy step by step. Target.The Indian army in three directions has formed an encirclement of Dhaka, the defensive focus of the Pakistani defenders.

The Indian army completed the encirclement of Dhaka from the east, west and north, while the sea and air force implemented a strict blockade from the sea and the air, completely cutting off all ties between Dhaka and the outside world.

Seeing that the Indian army supported by the Soviets has won the victory, and the world's largest navy is currently staring at the Bay of Bengal and the Red Navy, and it has a role as a fleet.

The Americans are of course in a hurry. India has won a complete victory, and the behavior that the United States can't wait to publicize since the formation of the task force will only become a laughing stock.

So Alan Wilson decided to proceed from a calm perspective, replying that Washington was watching the Royal Navy from the sidelines, "The most urgent task now is to find an excuse to leave the Bay of Bengal."

Of course, this is just a euphemism to convince the United States. In fact, even if the US fleet stays in the Bay of Bengal, it will not change anything, unless the Pakistani defenders in Dhaka stay for half a year. You can join forces and go south.

This is obviously impossible, unless the Pakistani defenders learn from Zhang Xun and use the Bangladeshis in Dhaka as rations.

"When Bangladesh is occupied, it will be the best time for the United States to pay attention to Sikkim. The United States has to accept this life-saving straw. This is a step to save face. Although the United States has received less, it has finally obtained it." David, the eldest son in Sikkim, received the latest instructions from his father, who is thousands of miles away.

The first thousand 410 eight chapters fall of Dhaka

The matter has come to this point, and everyone understands that the war situation in East Pakistan has entered the countdown, and the term East Pakistan will soon become history.

The whole of Dhaka has been under siege, and the Pakistani defenders in the capital of East Pakistan are in unprecedented chaos. The news that the Indian army will try all the soldiers who suppressed the Bangladeshis in the past year has spread like wildfire. This news has not been confirmed, but it has already had an impact among the defenders.

Alan Wilson released a false news thousands of miles away, which led to such a result. Naturally, he did not expect that the release of false news did not mean that it would definitely have an effect. The fundamental reason is that Pakistan has nothing to do with him, so why? What not to do?

The number of deaths in Pakistan and India has nothing to do with the United Kingdom. More deaths are to reduce the burden on Mother Earth. Macroscopically, he also does this for environmental protection.

"If Dhaka resists to the end, it is still too early to say that the war is over." The Ministry of Defense, the British Chief of Defense Staff Marshal Charles, talked to Alan Wilson, who was a guest, about his own understanding of this war.

Dhaka is the capital of East Pakistan, and it is also the largest city. Once it sticks to the end, it will not be easy for India to take it down.

Alan Wilson nodded, but he did not agree with this argument, and said, "Marshal, it has been a month since November 21. In fact, from the trend point of view, the Indian army's offensive It is getting smoother and smoother. It was not smooth at the beginning when fighting on the border, especially the main attack on the western front. But as time went by, the Indian army captured the cities defended by the defenders faster and faster. In the past half a month , According to the battle report released by India, almost every announcement is accompanied by a change of hands of a city."

Perhaps at the beginning, the Pakistani defenders on the defensive side, because of the meeting ceremony of the first ambassador to China, learned from a certain big country that India was going to launch a full-line offensive, and were not caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Indian army. At this stage The battle of the Indian army has no results, and it can even be called boring.

However, after successive breakthroughs on the northern and eastern fronts, as the Pakistani defense line on the western front was torn apart, the offensive of the Indian army suddenly became much smoother. As more and more cities were occupied, India suddenly Found the feeling of being the third in the world, the offense was like mercury pouring down the ground, and the towns around Dhaka were taken down like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.

"Perhaps the Pakistani army has reached a critical point. Of course, the possibility of a deadly battle exists, but it is more likely that it is on the verge of collapse. This kind of thing has not never happened on land. On the Soviet-German battlefield, the Soviet Red Army entered a period of time. After [-], the attacking force surpassed that of the German army, and after a battle, they not only won, but also suffered less damage than the defending German army. Even if the German army defended a well-defended city, it often could not hold out for a few days.”

Marshal Charles nodded and said, "That's right, it's true. In [-], the German army suddenly couldn't beat the Soviets."

"Germany's elite soldiers have been exhausted, and the newly conscripted soldiers are no match for the Soviets at all. They are as powerless as a drowning wildebeest facing a crocodile. Although the war has never stopped for a moment, theoretically, new recruits can fight in the war Get exercise."

Alan Wilson shrugged and said, "So obviously the war has been going on, and the command organization of the German army is also there, but suddenly the German army is no match for the Soviet Red Army at all."

The German army is already a rare and powerful army in the world, and this is still unavoidable. The German army still has local support, unlike the Pakistani army that has already offended the Bangladeshis.

As for why Germany did not carry out general mobilization, it was an excuse to switch to the wartime system late.

In fact, the reason why all countries mobilized successively in the First World War was not to fight the war, but to demonstrate to their opponents through general mobilization. As a result, mutual mobilization triggered a chain reaction. If you mobilize and I mobilize, the war will start.

World War I was a war for which countries were not psychologically prepared, but World War II was not. Long before the outbreak of World War II, the European countries involved had already realized that the war was approaching. Poland, with a population of less than 3000 million, had already Millions of troops are preparing for war.

Before the war started, all countries were ready for a world war, and there was no need for general mobilization at all.

The countries participating in the war are very aware of their own strength, but they just don't understand the strength of their opponents. It is a war with open cards.

As far as Pakistan is concerned now, if the Dhaka defenders still have the fear of surrendering to the false news released by Alan Wilson, that's okay.

I am afraid that when East Pakistan is almost an isolated city, the morale of the Dhaka defenders has collapsed, and it will be impossible to save the gods. The Azov Battalion once said that it would resist to the end.

It can only be said that there are two possibilities. From the perspective of the United Kingdom, the supplies have already been prepared since the independence of the Bangladeshis.

It can be said that the preparation time of the United Kingdom is no later than that of India. As long as an order is issued to the Far East Joint Operations Command, it can rush to the battlefield without any preparation.

What will happen in the end? Although Alan Wilson is thousands of miles away, isn't his elder brother just staring at Sikkim? Thinking of this, Alan Wilson felt a lot easier.

Jamalpur is one of the gateways to Dhaka, and now it is the only place left under the control of the Pakistani defenders. Earlier, the Indian army had been unable to conquer Jamalpur-the Jamalpur axis after a hard fight. The Kamalpur outpost on the ground, this outpost is only defended by a company of the Bizhilu Battalion, but it has repelled the Indian army's attack several times that of its own reinforced brigade, won the respect of the enemy, and forced the Indian army to besiege it. .

After plowing the land with heavy artillery, after the Indian army captured Kamalpur, the No. 90 Fifth Brigade of the Indian Army divided into three groups to encircle Jamalpur.The Indian army launched an offensive the next day. They first conducted a tentative attack with two battalions.

After the artillery preparations of the air force and artillery, a large-scale offensive began. At the same time, the Indian army dispatched another brigade for reinforcements, and its strength was overwhelming.

The defenders held on to the Jamalpur fortress for two days and two nights under the absolutely inferior force. The Pakistani Army Command believed that the strategic goal had been achieved and ordered the defenders to retreat.The remnants secretly moved towards Dhaka during the night.But at this time, Jamalpur has been surrounded by the Indian army, and it is difficult to withdraw from the encirclement without being discovered.

Sure enough, the First Light Infantry Battalion of the Indian Army spotted the retreating Pakistani Army and blocked the way.Taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the Indian army had not yet arrived, the Pakistani army concentrated their firepower to fight a bloody road, broke through the three lines of defense of the Indian army one after another, and finally broke through the encirclement after a fierce battle.

So far, the last gate of Dhaka has fallen, and the whole of Dhaka has been under heavy siege. Soon, an objective and neutral British reporter informed London of the incident, and later David from Sikkim also confirmed the news. Telling Whitehall is a verification of Dhaka's situation.

After besieging Dhaka, the Indian side began to send people to persuade the Dhaka defenders to surrender. The facts are very obvious. Can an isolated city be turned around?

In the western battlefield of the India-Pakistan War, Pakistan’s containment campaign also failed. India not only successfully defended Pakistan’s attack on the western front, but also occupied Pakistan’s land.

"Christmas on December 24th." Allen Wilson stared at the calendar, and suddenly remembered a famous saying of the Five-Star Emperor. It seems that this war will be difficult to maintain until [-], which is a pity.

On this day, the Pakistani defenders in Dhaka cleaned the prisoners held in Dhaka. The only purpose was to erase the traces of these people, because if these people were released from prison, they might be identified as crimes in the process of suppressing Bangladesh. , One hundred and one hundred is the purpose of this operation.

National Liberation Army, Bangladesh Rifles, Bangladesh Liberation Force, National People's Party and other paramilitary organizations and militias.

Members of the resistance movement, students, workers, farmers, nationalists, leftists, radicals, defecting soldiers and police, and intellectuals including professors, journalists, doctors, artists, engineers, writers, etc., are all included in the scope of execution.

After receiving the order, Pakistani soldiers drove tanks and advanced into Dhaka University with heavy weapons.The teachers and students woke up in their sleep, and there were gunshots and crying on the campus.In order to control the campus as soon as possible, the military directly entered the dormitory and started the "indiscriminate" massacre to make the students shut up forever.

The first target of this purge is the intellectuals.In a narrow sense, it is the hostiles against Siba, and in a broad sense, it is all intellectuals and elites of the Bengali ethnic group.

The University of Dhaka, a university established during the British colonial period, is also well-known all over the world. It and Calcutta were once the core area of ​​British rule before World War I, but this day was tormented by blood and fire.

After everything was done, the commander-in-chief of the East Pakistan garrison, Nyacki, sent people out of the city to negotiate with India's latest No.90 Fifth Brigade Commander. The two sides negotiated and agreed to a ceasefire and accepted India's request for unconditional surrender.Representatives of the two armies signed the letter of surrender, and Niacki then ordered that the Pakistani army in East Pakistan lay down their weapons and surrender to the Indian army.

The entire territory of East Pakistan was captured, and the news spread like a storm throughout India. The radio, newspapers, and even word of mouth were full of praise for Indira Gandhi.

The Bharatiya Janata Party, the predecessor of Modi's political party, also published the leaders' public speeches, recognizing that Indira Gandhi is the goddess of the Ganges in India and has unshakable absolute authority over the whole of India. The Bharatiya Janata League firmly supports it Indira Gandhi's decisions.

At the same time, the whole of Pakistan was dead silent, and newspapers published headlines in large black boxes: East Pakistan, I cry for you.

In the name of reporting on the heroic appearance of the Indian army, I, a British reporter, proudly raised my chest and followed the Indian army into Dhaka, the capital of East Pakistan. Maybe it won’t be long before its prefix will become the capital of Bangladesh.

The first thousand and 410 chapters and the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and Tin

"Sikkim wants to use diplomatic channels to get in touch with the United States? No problem, the king is my friend. You must pay attention to the news in Dhaka, and never send out news that is not in the national interest." Alan Wilson hung up after finishing speaking Telephone.

Anna glanced at the man who quickly hung up the phone, and a gleam flashed in her eyes, "What? Don't you believe me even today?"

"Honey, where did you say it?" Alan Wilson replied with a smile, "I just don't want the war to destroy the Christmas atmosphere between us, there is absolutely no other meaning."

In fact, there is nothing to say. Both the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom support India, but the strength of support is different. The Soviet Union is more straightforward, while the United Kingdom is more reserved.

After all, the United States supports Pakistan, and the fact that the United States supports Pakistan is not the result of a collective will, but the decision of a small group of people.

Don't look at the United States aggressively and quickly formed the No.70 Task Force Four, but American public opinion, Congress and civil servants are more inclined to India.In fact, it is very simple. Compared with Pakistan, India is of course a more valuable party, which can be judged by individuals.

It is not a certain big country that has already fought India once. From the standpoint of the United States, there is no need to be hostile to India.

At this time, serious division broke out in the White House system, Congress, and civil service system in the United States. The domestic public opinion, Congress, and civil service system in the United States basically supported India, while the White House and the foreign affairs department under the leadership of Kissinger strongly supported Pakistan. In the rebellion, there are three people who specifically support Pakistan, President Nixon, Kissinger and Bush Sr.

Being hostile to India is not the consensus of American political circles, but purely a decision of a small circle. Alan Wilson used history as a mirror to know that Kissinger was not a shady old fox in the early days of politics.Especially the decision-making during the third India-Pakistan war, properly a Chang Gong.

Therefore, the card of Sikkim has become extremely valuable until now. Whether it is Nixon, Kissinger, or Bush, facing the embarrassment of the No. Every attack on the Soviet Union must draw a card.

It just so happened that the Queen of Sikkim was an American, and she sent a plea for help, bringing Sikkim, which has a very strategic position, within the sight of Washington, and this was the moment for this small group of messed up people to save face.The Siliguri corridor is so narrow that once Sikkim is within sight, it will immediately reflect its value.

There is no need for Anna to know these words, but Anna is still entangled, "It's been so long, you are so stingy, I have two children."

"It's really not what you think. Both the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom support India. At least we have a common position on South Asian affairs. We must always give the United States a step down, right?" Alan Wilson comforted the unhappy little dragoons, "Did you know there was a massacre in Dhaka?"

Seeing Anna shaking his head, Allen Wilson said in a low voice, "When the US military appears in Sikkim, we will send out the news of the Dhaka massacre. At that time, countries that support Pakistan may be embarrassed. It is a pity that the Himalayas are under lockdown. If it is not the season of closing mountains, the embarrassment is not limited to the United States."

As soon as the news of the Dhaka massacre came out, it was embarrassing, of course, that there was a country that had taken a stand with the United States in support of Pakistan, a country that was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea and could not be said more.

It's a pity that the heavy snow blocked the mountains and let them hide. Alan Wilson actually welcomed the act of resolute support against the massacre of civilians by the Pakistani army, and criticized colonialism if he had nothing to do.

A day later, holding the news that the Queen of Sikkim called for the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and Sikkim, Alan Wilson came to Whitehall, and then wrote a list of paper, and then called Wick to send it to Kuala Lumpur, "Give it to Ellie Sha’s apportionment is not a burden, but can alms be a burden? With Bangladesh now in ruins, what is a donation?”

What Wick received was the apportionment list written by the Supreme Authority. The sugar king donated some sugar, the oil refining king donated some palm oil, and the instant noodle king donated some instant noodles. Lose together.

Of course, the British and Malaysian colonial governments took care of the big items by themselves, and just poured out some old rice from the granary.

It's all labeled like this, and is it expired?Bengalis should not be so ignorant of good and evil. As for the broader call for donations from Malayan subjects, Alisa can make her own decisions.

Calling a colony to donate money and materials is definitely not a difficult task, because the situation in Bangladesh is really miserable now. Pakistan’s continuous suppression for almost a year has caused millions of casualties. Scraping Bangladesh once, the Bangladeshis are almost eating dirt.

Such a miserable place, especially compared with Malaya, the pearl of Asia, is enough to arouse the sympathy of the subjects of Malaya.

In fact, in places with good economic development, it is easy to breed this kind of cheap sympathy. It is not necessarily true that the subjects of Malaya are extraordinarily kind, and they don’t know Bangladeshi people well. Stray dogs feel almost pitiful.

If the Bengali people live a particularly good life and still compete with Malaya in the industry, maybe the subjects of Malaya will set off firecrackers to celebrate this war after hearing about it.

The supreme authority is definitely not just taking advantage of the opportunity to pluck the wool. Malaya has missions for Malaya. Doesn’t the British mainland have no missions?

Of course there are. For example, considering that there are 6000 million Bangladeshis, I don’t know if there will be any after this war, but Alan Wilson will take it as his own. His current job is to talk to the Prime Minister and print 6000 million pounds.

Just when the cabinet secretary was going to talk to the prime minister about the specific operation of quantitative easing, the life-saving straw from Sikkim arrived at the loyal Washington from the Bay of Bengal, across the Suez Canal, and along the warm North Atlantic current. Singer knew.

Of course it sounds good to say against all opinions, but this time the decision to support Pakistan is really a decision made after discussions among small circles.As a result, the task force formed now is an existing fleet in the Bay of Bengal, paying attention to the Indian army's sweep of East Pakistan.

This embarrassing situation has become synonymous with blind and barren operations against all opinions, which makes the group that has been criticized for supporting Pakistan question Kissinger himself and President Nixon behind him.

It can be said that since the beginning of the India-Pakistan war, Kissinger did not sleep well, and the war was completely moving towards the side he did not want to see.

The appeal of the Queen of Sikkim at this time came at the right time, not to mention the fact that there is a small country in Sikkim that is afraid of the behemoths around it. The queen is an American, and the government certainly believes in the Americans.

Kissinger, holding a life-saving straw, left and came to the White House, explaining the latest situation to President Nixon, "Hope Cook is an American citizen, and we currently have no diplomatic relations with Sikkim. Obviously, India is extremely important to this geographical location." Small countries have ambitions, and India should learn a lesson by ignoring our diplomatic efforts this time and taking actions that undermine the regional balance."

This scene was within the expectations of Alan Wilson, who was preparing to print money. Although he did not witness it with his own eyes, Kissinger's performance at this time did verify his judgment.

When India, supported by the Soviet Union, won the victory, the United States always had to win a round. How important is the position of Sikkim, and the queen is still an American citizen.

"British public opinion is also discussing this matter fiercely. There are mainly two types. They think that Sikkim is a country with traditional British influence and has a very strategic position, but they hope that the United States will assist them. It is a CIA agent, and this is a conspiracy by the United States to penetrate into areas of traditional British influence this time."

Now there is no other way. In fact, Kissinger was very wronged. The United States suffered setbacks in the Vietnam War and urgently needed to improve relations with a certain big country. Pakistan has a good relationship with a certain big country, which is the bridge for this.

But at this time, there was civil strife in Pakistan, and from the perspective of the United States, Pakistan could not be abandoned at this time.

But the key point is that Kissinger visited secretly. Except for being discovered by a cabinet secretary in London, it can be said to be extremely confidential.How is it possible for civil servants in Congress and the executive branch to know about this?

Of course, too many people should not know about the black-box operation. Most people who don't know the inside story are opposed to the hostility between the United States and India, but the United States frightens India.

Nixon remained silent. Now it is obviously a multiple-choice question. The decision to improve relations and poach the corner of the Soviet Union has been implemented, so we can only continue to go on.

"Establish diplomatic relations with Sikkim, and send C-5 transport planes to transport the sea chrysanthemum marines to take off from Thailand to Sikkim. This matter must be informed to relevant countries. You can arrange the establishment of diplomatic relations with Sikkim. After that, let the task force leave the Bay of Bengal. Issue a statement that the United States will Will keep West Pakistan safe and bring New Delhi to an immediate end to the war."

Soon, the C-5 transport plane at the Thai military base took the hastily designated diplomats and a team of marines and flew towards the small country of Sikkim at the southern foot of the Himalayas.

At this time, Bangladesh has ceased fire across the board, and the Pakistani army is surrendering to the attacking Indian army. India, which is in ecstasy across the country, does not know the latest actions of the United States.

The United States immediately exerted diplomatic pressure on India, which had already won the Battle of East Pakistan, through diplomatic channels, urging India to immediately cease fire and stop the war immediately.

Sikkim has an airport built by the UK before, which can allow the UK's strategic transport planes to land, so of course the US has no problem. On this day, in addition to the Union Jack, the Stars and Stripes appeared in Sikkim.

Chapter 420 Human rights are greater than sovereignty

Palden pinched his waist with both hands, and he seemed to have never felt so confident, "The British high commissioner, the American ambassador, two powerful countries serve me alone, is this a small blessing?"

In the Royal Palace of Sikkim, the Mi Zi flag and the Stars and Stripes on both sides complement each other. David tidied up his clothes and waved to the just-promoted American Ambassador Mason, holding hands tightly on behalf of the two countries.

"It's a small country with beautiful scenery." Mason had a good impression of Sikkim, and it was not so easy to go from a diplomat to an ambassador.In addition to the most important contacts, a series of chances and coincidences are needed. Obviously, Sikkim helped him complete this crucial step.

"It's still an extremely important small country." David continued, "Some countries have strategic value even if they are small."

Hearing this sentence, the two laughed heartily at the same time. They both knew the value of Sikkim. Even if there was an American soldier in Sikkim, the fragile Siliguri Corridor would be threatened.
