British civil servant
Page 225
But having said that, Alan Wilson really misses the life of working until two o'clock in the afternoon in Kuala Lumpur every day.
Although a day's work in Whitehall may not be as heavy as the work in the Colonies until two o'clock in the afternoon.
Somewhat surprised is that Pamela Mountbatten is much busier than this commissioner. As the vane of the British Empire's investment community, Ms. Pamela Mountbatten's company is becoming more and more determined to move towards the Concern model, Pamela Mountbatten Barton is no longer the little girl who was dazzled by a few diamonds he dropped in New Delhi.
The relationship between the two is still very rock-solid, but seeing his fiancée getting more and more busy, Alan Wilson also has mixed feelings.
General Mountbatten also felt this, and found an occasion to mention this issue, "Pamela is now the same as his mother. Of course, it is not a bad thing to pursue wealth. But my personal suggestion is that this year the two of you put things together. After settling down, she is also 22 years old and should have her own marriage."
"Dear Lord of the Sea, I'm actually very surprised that you said this." Alan Wilson was a little flattered, because in the early days of his acquaintance with Pamela Mountbatten, his father-in-law played more of a role in life. The role of stumbling blocks on the road is the same as guarding against thieves.
Today, General Mountbatten took the initiative to ask about the marriage of the two, and Alan Wilson almost thought he heard it wrong.
"The way you looked at that time was too much like a person with ulterior motives." Mountbatten said calmly, "It's really hard for me to hand over my daughter to you, but what happened later showed that your The relationship is solid, and I have nothing more to say."
In the evening, Pamela Mountbatten, who was busy with the company, came home, and when she heard the words of the maiden, she stretched out her hand and grabbed the man's face, showing her teeth and claws, "I thought you forgot about me, but I didn't realize it until today. Still single."
"The main reason is that I am too busy. In fact, if you ask me if I am willing, I will always be willing. But now it seems that in the eyes of most people, the color of my ulterior motives has not lightened, and it seems to be getting heavier. "Alan Wilson complained with his hands in his pockets, "Who made you move firmly towards the crown of the richest man in Britain?"
"Don't say that, when will you marry me." Pamela Mountbatten said aggressively, "I'm already 22 years old."
"After dealing with the matter in Malaya this time, we will prepare for the wedding. It will take less than two months." Alan Wilson said without thinking, "Now we can actually prepare jewelry, wedding dresses and so on. How many guests do you want to invite?" ?”
"We don't want the wedding of the century. The crown prince did it because of political implications. As a businessman, if I am too extravagant, it may not be a good thing, especially if you are a civil servant." Pamela Mountbatten thought for a while, considering Ai Ren Wilson's work, made a very wise decision.
It seems that a long time has passed since they got engaged in New Delhi, and the two had a deep talk about their marriage that night.It was decided that the lifelong events of the two must be settled this year.
When things came to an end, Alan Wilson had some hidden worries in his heart. Other women were easy to talk about. What about Audrey Hepburn?
Thinking of this, he couldn't even fall asleep, and started a new round of busyness, asking Katharine Hepburn to send an invitation letter for Audrey Hepburn to go to the United States for further studies.
As for the assistants in North Rhodesia, they are all standard configurations. I hope Katharine Hepburn, an actress who has a prostitution experience, can exert some positive influence on Audrey Hepburn.
Chapter 600 Actor Wilson
"After all, I still lived the way I hated before." Alan Wilson still remembers that he seemed to have ridiculed Katharine Hepburn for being prostituted for nothing. Fortunately, the person involved did not know.
The difference between Audrey Hepburn and other women is that when the two met, she was really an innocent little girl, and she was definitely not as open-minded as others in this respect.
This is very difficult to do, find a chance, Alan Wilson loves to come back this time and meet Hepburn.
Maybe Audrey Hepburn also noticed the trouble, and asked, but the man kept silent.
"The matter this time is very troublesome. Your work has nothing to do with politics. It is difficult to explain to you what the trouble is." Alan Wilson sighed, as if pouring out the invisible pressure in front of Audrey Hepburn.
For some reason, Audrey Hepburn always felt that this man was in great trouble. She had never seen a man so anxious, showing an obvious dilemma.
It may be that the matter of British Malaya is indeed very important, which put too much pressure on this man, and Hepburn also felt a little distressed.
This anxiety is real, but unlike what Hepburn thought, Alan Wilson didn't care what would become of British Malaya at all. In terms of national interests and personal issues, he would definitely choose the latter.
Allen Wilson has always done things only in terms of distance, and he considers his own class when doing things. If he is a high-society figure in another era, even in the Yuan and Qing Dynasties, he will also protect the court. If it is a class where eating is a problem, No matter how upright this dynasty is, it cannot stop him from imitating Shituoling.
On the current issue, Alan Wilson only considers how to keep Hepburn by his side. The so-called 320 million petitions signed are not as important as Hepburn's smile in his eyes.
"If one day we have to separate, I might not be able to bear it." Alan Wilson instinctively grabbed Hepburn's hand, lowered his head in a heavy tone, only Hepburn's warm embrace could make him feel the warmth for a moment.
"What's the matter?" Hepburn felt the heat in the mouth of the man in his arms, and her voice became more and more unsteady.
"Nothing!" Alan Wilson looked up with deep affection in his eyes, and took out an invitation, "This is an invitation from Katharine Hepburn to invite you to study in the United States. It is a rare opportunity for you, and you should seize it. But The atmosphere in the United States is really worrying, and I am afraid that we will be separated, but even if I have such worries, I can't stop your chance of success."
The atmosphere was already in place, and Alan Wilson's hand holding the invitation trembled slightly. Alan Wilson almost forgot what it felt like to be nervous because of lying.
This time he showed unprecedented tension, completely from the bottom of his heart, not daring to reveal his true side in front of Hepburn.
If he was facing other actresses, he would definitely not do this, it was nothing more than an exchange of benefits.But in front of this woman who was destined to be a star in the world, he couldn't do that.
"So you're worried about this!" Audrey Hepburn let out a long breath, a hint of blame flashed in her eyes, she stretched out her hand and patted her chest and said in fear, "I'm really scared, don't worry, it won't, I'm not suffering I can't afford a tempting woman."
You are such a woman, things are not so difficult, Alan Wilson's face was scalded by an iron, and he cursed in his heart.
He wanted to transform Hepburn into his own shape as soon as possible. For this purpose, he tried his best to strengthen the relationship between the two. Hepburn felt a little unbearable. He didn't know why this man was so clingy all of a sudden.
"I'm afraid that you will forget me when you go to the colorful world in the United States." This kind of explanation made Hepburn readily accept, and joked that this kind of worry was unnecessary.
"I'm going back to Asia soon, and millions of people are waiting for me. If I get away with it this time, it's God's mercy, and I will definitely go to America to visit you." Allen Wilson expressed his loyalty to Hepburn, and at the same time spoke Leave room.
He already has a record for the next stage of words. It is nothing more than the help of the Mountbatten family. In order to repay his kindness, he married Pamela Mountbatten, who has always liked him, and bowed to fate. Barabara.
Alan Wilson and Norman Brook, who had re-entered Whitehall, discussed the development plan of Malaya. Norman Brook asked whether there was infiltration of the Chinese ethnic group under the current situation.
"Chinese in Southeast Asia are common, and there are a lot of them. They can't take care of it and can't reach it. If I come to solve it, dual citizenship will be banned. If this situation really arises, it will be simple from the British perspective. After the introduction of the policy of prohibiting dual citizenship, we banned Chinese Malayan citizenship, completely blocking the way."
Alan Wilson replied, "This was originally the main condition I discussed after I returned with the amnesty order. If the Chinese did not agree to this condition, I would definitely not take out the amnesty order and start repatriation work immediately. This kind of good opportunity is only Once, I will definitely take the opportunity to get as many favorable conditions as possible.”
Currently, all Chinese in Southeast Asia have dual nationality. The Qing government promulgated China’s first international law, the “Regulations of the Qing Dynasty”—China follows the principle of blood. No matter where you were born, as long as you are of Chinese descent, you have Chinese nationality.As a result, Chinese people born all over the world have dual nationality.
At present, the total number of Chinese scattered in Southeast Asian countries is about 500 million, all of whom automatically have dual citizenship.Therefore, the Chinese in Malaya have no sense of belonging to the British Malaya colony.
Alan Wilson's main job before was to cut off the penetration of British Malaya.
There is no need to distinguish between primary and secondary. They are all enemies of the British Malaya colonial government. Alan Wilson guarantees that no one will be able to find these dangerous elements who disappeared without anyone noticing. They are all in the vast seabed.
"But having said that, General Mountbatten's proposal to deploy nuclear mines in British Malaya, manufacture nuclear artillery shells for battleships, and put roadbed silos in British Malaya are also your suggestions." Approved Allen Wilson's explanation, Norman Brooke asked another question.
"It can only be said that the hero sees the same thing. General Mountbatten discovered the importance of the Strait of Malacca. Only by stabilizing the local law and order at all costs can we realize the plan we mentioned before." Alan Wilson's ambiguous answer was regarded as acquiescing The idea is my own.
The current situation in Southeast Asia is very simple. There are 1 British troops in British Malaya, [-] Dutch troops in Kalimantan and New Guinea, [-] Portuguese troops in Timor Island, and [-] Australian troops in New Guinea. Thousands of troops.These European troops in different places surrounded Indonesia.
The advantage of this is that Indonesia does not want to focus on Malaya to start infiltration as it did in history.It is a blockade network built by the colonists who are staring at each other in all directions.
This is not counting the [-] French troops fighting fiercely in South Vietnam not far away.The [-] Portuguese troops that can be supported from Goa, and the Aceh Independence Army supported by all countries.
There are four colonial countries around the Strait of Malacca, as well as Australia, which can help.It can be said that the situation on the ground is more like the Cold War than the current situation in Europe.
Under such circumstances, the penetration pressure faced by British Malaya was greatly reduced, and it could even take the initiative to exert pressure on Indonesia.
But no amount of pressure is as effective as nuclear weapons. The UK has a small land area, and there are not many options for roadbed nuclear weapon deployment. It is very reasonable to find a place that can be used as a silo.
Another major shareholder of De Havilland, after discussions between De Havilland and Pamela Mountbatten, has decided to choose a location in Northwest Australia to build a space center.Used to research rocket projects.
Australian society welcomes this very much, and is happy that the British Empire is willing to shoulder its international obligations.In Pamela Mountbatten's media, it was compensation for the selfish behavior of WWII Churchill MPs.
Recently, Pamela Mountbatten's media has done two things. After the collective surrender of the black troops of the US military, they have been talking about the issue of the American ethnic group for several months, saying a set of words over and over again.The central idea is that as the black population grows, there are bound to be big problems in America.
Another thing is that the special relationship between Britain and Australia plays an important role in Australia's security.The British army in Malaya, the Portuguese army in Timor, and the Dutch army in Kalimantan and New Guinea are all friends of Australia and have a positive effect on Australia's security.
Anyway, it's just talking, and it's not selling shares in Australia's Mountbatten Exploration Company, it's nothing.
The current nuclear weapons in the UK are concentrated in the air force, which is derived from the experience of strategic bombing in World War II. However, after the Trinity nuclear strike was proposed, this situation has changed, but what nuclear mines, nuclear artillery shells, and road-based nuclear weapons are just now. The project is approved, but the finished product has not yet come out.
Especially the nuclear submarine project, although the Royal Navy, especially General Mountbatten, strongly supported it, it was obvious whether it was technical difficulties or financial difficulties.
Now it depends on whether de Havilland's early rocket technology attainments can support the aerospace industry.
Pamela Mountbatten, who has made great progress on the road to wealth, also donated 100 million pounds to support related disciplines.This kind of performance is highly praised by Whitehall.
The aristocracy is still trustworthy, especially when the current British Empire needs help.
With the joint efforts of the military and Whitehall, it is no longer a problem for nuclear forces to be stationed in Malaya. The problem is that the UK does not have many types of nuclear weapons. At present, except for strategic bombing, other projects have no finished products.
Chapter 6 and One Hundred Million Crowns
It will definitely take a few years to wait, but on the other side of the world, while Alan Wilson continues to support the British nuclear test, he acts as if he has real nuclear weapons and threatens Jakarta with words and force.
It is not clear how long Sukarno can be fooled, but even if nuclear weapons cannot be fooled, there are 20 coalition forces in the surrounding area, including the British army, that can be dispatched at any time. The encirclement around Indonesia can be regarded as solid.
In terms of the population of Indonesia, the military forces deployed by the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Portugal and Australia are probably similar to the military forces deployed by the Soviet Union in Asia during the confrontation. Compared with the European direction, it is not very strong, but it is already very strong for Indonesia. strong.
Since the 80 Soviet troops can cause huge psychological pressure, there is no reason why the 20 coalition forces cannot exert the same pressure on Jakarta, not to mention that Jakarta is still a coastal city.
Returning home from Whitehall, Alan Wilson coincidentally arrived home with Pamela Mountbatten and recounted the interview at Whitehall.Then he asked, "Honey, how much funding does Mr. de Havilland need for rocket research?"
"Honey, it is estimated that no less than 1000 million pounds of support is needed. But I can still support this investment." Pamela Mountbatten knew the purpose of the problem at this time, "The strategic missile project happens to be De Harvey What Mr. Lan is researching, the internal code name of the company is Blu-ray Project. The entire project is expected to receive 7000 million pounds in funding, and the initial [-] pounds requires the company to invest first. Originally, this project could find a way through bank financing, but I still decided to pay in advance. The Ministry of Defense's requirement is that the range should exceed [-] miles, and the rocket motor will be provided by Rolls-Royce."
"Oh, my dear, you have paid too much for this country." Alan Wilson was very surprised and admired Pamela Mountbatten's sense of ownership. There is such a thing as patriotism.
Alan Wilson vaguely remembered that Britain did have a strategic missile in the early days of the Cold War.Because the research and development costs and the national strength of the United Kingdom became more and more unsupportable, it was eventually abandoned.
In fact, considering the process of France's independent development of nuclear weapons, what can the UK not support?It is nothing more than handing over guns and surrendering, acknowledging that the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom is no longer equal, and acquiescing that the United States is the big brother.
The military expenditure of the United Kingdom is around one billion pounds in total. To be honest, it is very important to allocate a sum of 7000 million pounds to support the strategic missile program.
If the Blu-ray goes well, it will definitely be transplanted to a nuclear submarine in the future. Alan Wilson, who was thinking, heard a new message from Pamela Mountbatten, "Alim came to me today and heard that you are back. I want to I want to meet you."
"Oh, Majesty's housekeeper." Alan Wilson was stunned and immediately understood, "Out of deep personal friendship, I am willing to help as much as possible, maybe something good will happen."
He knew why Arim could not wait to show up when he knew he was back in London. Of course, it was to sell the crown of Sabah. There are several administrative regions in British Malaya that do not have sultans, and important places like Penang and Malacca place, it is best not to have one.
Then Sabah, next to Sarawak, is the only remaining administrative region without Sudan.This kind of consideration does not include the Kra Isthmus, because it was not long before the Kra Isthmus was incorporated into Malaya. Strictly speaking, the Kra Isthmus has always been under military control.
So it is obvious that Alim has found Pamela Mountbatten this time, and it must be to find a crown for his master and continue his career as a monarch.
However, Alan Wilson has already said that this crown is definitely not cheap in the current world environment.
For example, the good thing that the Iraqi royal family was driven away by the French in Syria and then directly arranged by the British in Iraq is impossible to happen again.
If there is no interest, London will not take risks because of the traditional harmonious relationship.
Alan Wilson really wanted to facilitate this. The key is that British Malaya is indeed short of money. Before he took office, he said that he would never cause London’s financial burden. He went around Africa, Australia and even Newfoundland. , Take out a little money for the development of Malaya.
If there is Ali Khan to join, what is a little financial strain?It is impossible for Ali Khan to solve the financial pressure of the United Kingdom, even if he is the richest man in the world, but it is not easy to solve the financial problems of Malaya?
A day later, he sighed in his heart that the British Empire did not have such hard-working officials as himself. Alan Wilson got up anxiously, and then got stuck and went out. Even if he was willing in his heart, he had to show his sincerity to lower the price.
Things that are too easy to get are often not cherished. He will not cheat his friends, but he can't go whoring for nothing.
Ali Khan's London butler, Alan Wilson, was already very familiar with him, and he even helped take care of Hepburn.
After the meeting, he did not insist on getting much money from Ali Khan. He introduced the basic situation of British Malaya and answered a few questions that Ali Khan was very concerned about.
"A land like Hyderabad, not to mention me, even London doesn't exist now. It's a territory the size of the British Isle. Sabah is not a small area, but the population is really small, and Malaya It’s not that Maharaja can’t get used to it at all, the local environment is a hundred times better than Hyderabad’s. It’s famous for its warm sandy beaches and clear water.”
"A small population is not a bad thing. Hyderabad has a population of more than 2000 million, but they are all opponents of the maharaja. And there is an Indian community in the local area, so they should not object to the maharaja's visit."
Alan Wilson introduced various benefits, and Alim thought for a while and said, "Mr. Alan, the Maharaja has always believed that you are impeccable within the scope of friends, and you are the most precious friend in his life. Your Majesty Of course, Jun is very willing to change places to get support, even willing to pay a huge amount of money, and is willing to lead the subjects of the territory to live a good life after arriving, but this process is destined to be difficult and needs your help."
"There is no problem. To be honest, I will return to Asia soon, but for the Majesty, I am willing to work in the Colonial Department." Alan Wilson nodded and agreed, "Who made us friends."
Since the last time Alan Wilson talked with Ali Khan's son, Ali Khan has collected a lot of information on Sabah.Through the understanding of documents and photos, Ali Khan is very satisfied with the situation in Sabah.
Although the area is only one-third of Hyderabad, the environment is really lovely.Now Ali Khan is still the chief minister of Hyderabad and still has his own guards, so security is not a problem.
Ali Khan, who didn't want to end his career as a monarch so easily, still couldn't bear the temptation of a crown.Not to mention that the area of Sabah is not small, even if it is only one-tenth of Hyderabad, he is still willing to accept it, and some expenses are not a problem at all.
Along the way, Alan Wilson wondered how to soften the fact that a colonial crown was being sold.
But in the end, he decided to tell the truth. Norman Brook, the cabinet secretary who heard the truth, was full of signs that you had a lot of tricks in his eyes, "Alan, although it is good to have a lot of energy for work, it is not a trivial matter."
"Ali Khan used to be the richest man in the world!" Alan Wilson expressed coyly, he really bowed his head to money.
"Of course I know that the majesty is the richest man in the world, and I also know that the high society in London respects the majesty. But it is not easy now. This is not the era of Prime Minister George. Back then we could assign a place at random and let the selected People should be kings. At that time, a prime minister could draw a line on the map and a new country would be born.”
Norman Brook said with a look of nostalgia, expressing that this matter is no small matter, and said with a heavy face, "I don't know how much your Majesty is willing to pay for this matter."
"I think 5000 million pounds may be unbearable, but [-] million pounds shouldn't be a problem." Alan Wilson muttered in a low voice.
"Makins! Do you have a recent itinerary? If not, go to India for a business trip." Norman Brook picked up the phone and waited for a while before ordering, "Nehru? No, go to Hyderabad, we have A distinguished guest is willing to negotiate a business with us during this difficult time, well, you can leave immediately. Remember, this is a big deal and must be kept secret."
Putting down the phone, Norman Brook turned his attention to Alan Wilson again, "If everything goes well, you can arrange things in Sabah. Don't think that this matter is simple. If Ali Khan has not received the attention of the royal family, it will not matter. So easy. The Colonial Department, the Foreign Office and even the Prime Minister will be involved, and it needs to be kept from Nehru."
"The main reason is that the majesty is indeed worthy of respect!" Alan Wilson also said that he was also impressed by Ali Khan's personal charm, so he wholeheartedly helped.
Of course, this [-] points of hard work are incomparable to the intensity of Whitehall's personal attention.
"I am doing this for the development of Malaya. If I am not afraid that you will encounter financial difficulties, I will not make an exception." Norman Brook expressed his concern in front of his subordinates at the right time, all for the valued subordinates and the colonial people of well-being.
"Nearly one million citizens in Sabah will definitely be grateful for Sir's choice. This choice is great!" Alan Wilson took advantage of the opportunity to express his admiration. When things go wrong in a country, people like the cabinet secretary are needed to turn the tide .
After leaving Whitehall, Allen Wilson passed the news to Maharaja Ali Khan, who is close to [-] million people, through Arim. This matter has already attracted the attention of Whitehall. If it is not that he himself cannot get away, he will definitely follow up and handle it personally , which is now in charge of Lord Sheffield.
Chapter 6 Deciding Future Negotiations
If it is said that in the first three battles, the U.S. military was chased by the explosive hammer because of the problem of the U.S. military's combat habits, which led to a series of defeats, then the fourth battle is undoubtedly the first time that the two sides have used their full strength.
The phobia that the U.S. military was about to withdraw immediately after being surrounded did not appear. With the support of the powerful air force and ground firepower, a needle-to-head battle was carried out. Now both sides of the battle should have a certain understanding of each other's strength.
At least Li Qiwei is not as arrogant as MacArthur, who has already seen his opponent's weaknesses as soon as he arrived on the peninsula.
During the fourth battle, while the two sides had an understanding of the comparison of strength, they also expressed shock in their hearts.Compared with the previous three battles, the intensity of this battle has increased unprecedentedly.
In fact, the opponents of the U.S. military should be more shocked. Is this the same U.S. army that was chased by the hammer in the previous three battles?How did it become so difficult all of a sudden?
