British civil servant

Sui Sui Nian said, "I am doing this for the benefit of the UK. Can this country still find an imperial servant like me?"

"You can say whatever you want." Pamela Mountbatten was also caught by her husband's pigtails. She knew that her husband had always been serious about what he said in this regard, and persuasion was useless.

For Britain, the partition of British India was of course very tragic, and Britain did prevent it.But the result now is that all countries in the world believe that the partition of British India into India and Pakistan was deliberately done by the United Kingdom.

But after entering the British official system, Alan Wilson could understand that Britain has always been keen on merging colonies for unified management, but such things as colonial policy are destined to cause a lot of trouble.Countries that want to be independent never think that they are dependent on the suzerain country, they only think that this should be theirs.

So Nehru declared that although Great India does not exist geographically, it has always existed in a cultural sense, and it is even bigger than British India. The British nose asked why you didn’t bring down Afghanistan. , and then sent it to India, it has already been counted as a face for Britain.

Indonesia wants to receive all the colonies of the Netherlands in Asia, which is not enough, even the British colony of Malaya.

As for Vietnam's claims, we all know that Cambodia and Laos are going to be swallowed up. This is not a secret at all.

The series of colonies merged by the United Kingdom will not receive even a little gratitude. Since the colonial empire is destined to have original sin, Alan Wilson's idea is much simpler. You don't need to thank you. Whoever is independent will be cut off.

Since the fact that British India vendettas each other is a bit far away from Africa, this time we will choose one that is not too far away.Sudan is in Africa, it will be clearer if you observe it closely.

"Unfortunately, the Bandung Conference is about to be held." When Alan Wilson and John boarded the Comet airliner the next day, they were still lamenting that they might miss the Bandung Conference right under their noses. This is a pity.

"The conference of emerging independent countries held by Nehru?" John looked at the special plane and said enviously, "It is very enviable to be a colonial commissioner and do what you do. Pamela has equipped you with The car you use alone, no wonder many people complain about you."

"You say I'm relying on the Mountbatten family? Cut, you don't understand." Alan Wilson said indifferently. He didn't need to explain anything to such people who didn't know the truth. The Mountbatten family didn't have him as a son-in-law. He is just an ordinary member of the upper class, how can he be as brilliant as he is today?

He didn't need to explain, and instead said, "Washington has tried its best to prevent it, but Nehru still wants to convene it. There is no way around it, but he will definitely regret it for today. But I believe that the participating Japan will speak for the United States." .”

The Bandung Conference was originally the Asian-African Conference. It was decided by the five countries in Colombo. It is not only a meeting for the awakening of Asian and African countries and anti-colonial meetings, but also economic cooperation between Asian and African countries. Of course, Japan is an Asian country and can participate.

In fact, many countries opposed China's participation, because many Asian and African countries were very hostile, but because of India's insistence, China and North Vietnam successfully participated.

Alan Wilson's regret is that he wants to see how the current Bandung Conference is different from history.Because the United States has found its own agent, Japan, and the United Kingdom has actually found its own spokesperson, Egypt. Farouk I has already stated that he will participate in the Bandung Conference.

There are also some differences from the original history. It has nothing to do with Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia is a European country and has never participated in the Bandung Conference in history, although Tito is also recognized as the leader of the non-aligned.Now the leaders of the non-aligned countries have no part in Yugoslavia, and Tito even brought Yugoslavia into the Warsaw Pact.

There is also the Gold Coast, which was originally attended by history. Because the leaders of the independence movement disappeared over North Africa with the plane, they have not succeeded in fighting for independence so far. Naturally, they missed the Bandung Conference.

Regrets are regrets, he can't patronize to watch the fun, he can't care about the difficulties of his African colleagues, he can't care about Africa's urgent needs, or the colonies are more important to Britain because of the high popularity of the Bandung Conference.

Regarding the independence of Sudan, Alan Wilson must provide an example for the independence of African colonies. He doesn't care how the independent country is doing, the worse the better.Maybe he was saving the African people. As far as he knew, in the year when Sudan became independent, blacks and Arabs in North and South Sudan fought.

If the partition is successful, many people may die less. From this point of view, he now says that he can save Africa.

After a layover in Dubai, which has already begun to take shape, the two took advantage of refueling to comment on Dubai, saying that it will definitely become an aviation center in the future before continuing to fly to London.

If it wasn't for the time conflict, Alan Wilson and the two would also like to visit their old boss, Sir Barron.

As Comet One landed over London, Alan Wilson looked down at London through the window.After the London smog incident, the transformation of London is proceeding in an orderly manner. In the past two years, many urban areas in London have undergone major changes, especially the East End, which was originally a slum area in London.

There is some credit for Alan Wilson, and he has every reason to think so.

Walking out of the airport, Alan Wilson and John agreed to launch their own connections. His biggest connection is of course the First Sea Lord Mountbatten who had a successful visit to the United States and was in the limelight.

Sudan's independence is a major event, and it must be ensured that it conforms to the interests of the United Kingdom. As for how it conforms to the interests of the United Kingdom.Anyway, the relationship between Sudan and Egypt is too close to meet.

Later generations of Egypt have discovered that in the process of driving the United Kingdom away, they were still cheated by the United Kingdom. Egypt, whose population explosion is full of deserts, can no longer become a pivotal force. Egypt has been trying to promote the reunification with Sudan and establish a A country that straddles the upper and lower reaches of the Nile River; some Arabs in northern Sudan also wanted to work hard to promote a merger or alliance with Egypt.

This is of course, the main purpose of Britain's control of Sudan is to control the Nile Valley, thereby suppressing Egypt.

Once Sudan is divided, whether North Sudan, which is dominated by Arabs, can maintain its independent status and not be infiltrated by Egypt.This is the first question London considers. After all, the Anglo-Egyptian joint administration of Sudan has only been abolished for a few years. Many Arabs in northern Sudan may still have a good impression of Egypt in their hearts. This is something that must be considered.

The most important thing is, what does the current Labor Party government think about the partition? Alan Wilson does not think that if British India is partitioned, Sudan will be partitioned as a matter of course. There are different ideas, and the decisions made are the result of comprehensive consideration.

"You came back because of this incident?" General Mountbatten looked at the son-in-law who came to the door, and then said with a sarcastic smile, "It really shouldn't be a surprise, you like to get involved in this kind of thing, and you can also get benefits from it."

"Huh? It can also be called the preservation of the legal property of the British Empire." Alan Wilson changed his words in front of his father-in-law. This statement must not be wrong. Everything he has done has indeed benefited the United Kingdom.

"Just tell me what you think?" General Mountbatten listened casually to this sophistry, neither admitting nor denying it.

"Follow the example of British India and carry out partition." Alan Wilson's answer was concise and to the point.

General Mountbatten chuckled, with an unsurprising micro-expression on his face, he couldn't help laughing, "That's right, after all, you have a glorious history in British India, and it's not surprising that you want to do the same now. What can I do to help?"

Mountbatten knew that there must be something wrong with his son-in-law coming to the door. This son-in-law is a person who has no profit and can't afford it early.

"I want to know what the cabinet thinks about the partition of Sudan." Alan Wilson replied in a straightforward manner. "As for Whitehall, I'll go back and see Sir Norman later."

"Couldn't Norman be a carpenter?" General Mountbatten obviously knew a thing or two about the hobby of the respected cabinet secretary, and he answered after thinking for a while, "I will help you agree to the cabinet's opinion. Man."

As a promising imperial commissioner fighting alone overseas, Alan Wilson has the habit of being keen to connect with other people. Although he cannot meet the respected cabinet secretary, his sense of presence has not disappeared.

Soon he was in front of Norman Brooke, listening to the teachings of the British civil servant talker.

"Alan, it's really gratifying that you can come back." After hearing what Alan Wilson said, Norman Brook looked at his promising subordinates with satisfaction, and seemed to be concerned about the future of the empire no matter where he was. The behavior was very moved, "I have heard about the Sudan. John has been busy with this matter for nearly a year and tried his best. Now he has found you. It can be seen that the determination to safeguard the interests of the empire exists. Yes, so what result do you want?"

"Partition of Sudan!" Alan Wilson looked at Norman Brook's wink and said cautiously.

"Then divide and rule, this is Whitehall's opinion." Norman Brooke replied simply, but there was room for it. "Of course I don't know the situation, and this may not be the final result."

Chapter 812 The subway is late

"I believe that the cabinet will follow the professional advice of Whitehall." Alan Wilson spoke at the right time, expressing the highest respect to the supreme authority in a restrained but flattering tone.

"Actually, we can't just make sure that everything is based on professional opinions." Norman Brook first recognized the professional authority of Alan Wilson in a general direction, but then changed the subject, "Now there are some problems within the Labor Party. From the standpoint of China, there should not be much to say, but it is best not to have anything to affect the country."

"Wow!" Alan Wilson heard the cabinet secretary say so, and immediately carefully asked for confirmation with an attitude of wanting to hear more.

Norman Brooke said noncommittally, "Although it can't be called a young and ignorant anger, it is very rare to continue to this day. Maybe there will be results after a while."

The dispute between Prime Minister Attlee and Foreign Secretary Morrison, the No. [-] and No. [-] figures of the Labor Party, originated from the key election when the Labor Party competed for the leadership of the Labor Party. Morrison, who was expected to be the leader of the Labor Party, lost the election. If he did not lose his seat in Parliament in [-], then he would not be Clement Richard Attlee but he would be the leader of the Labor Party, and later the Prime Minister. This blow still haunts him.

Eden replaced the aging and long unpopular Churchill, ushering in a new era for the Conservative Party.It means that the Conservative Party has been changed, while the Labor Party is still the same.

When Alan Wilson heard it, Lu Bu's face appeared in front of his eyes for no reason, "A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time!"

Morrison is also popular, passionate about voters and highly regarded within the Labor Party.In the original history, since Attlee was defeated by Churchill in [-], the Labor Party returned to Morrison's hands.

As Norman Brooke said, the two had a bad relationship in [-], but it has continued to this day.

After the war, because the Labor Party was in opposition for a long time, there were not many people with experience in governing in the party, which led to the emergence of several super ministers who were in charge of multiple departments, and Morrison was one of them.

Following the death of Ernest Bevan, Morrison became foreign secretary and Labor's number two.

Regardless of qualifications or popularity, Morrison has the qualifications to challenge Attlee.

What Norman Brooke said has consequences, and it is estimated that he is planning when the Prime Minister will remove Morrison from the cabinet.It may be next month, or next year, it's hard to say, it depends on Attlee's patience.

"My God." Alan Wilson, who walked out of Whitehall, was not happy to hear gossip about the ruling party.They are already in power, so why bother?

Although he returned because of Sudan's independence, Alan Wilson still called friends and drew closer to his colleagues in London.

He works overseas, and he can't be alienated from his friends in London, which will help him know what's going on in China at the first time.

Naturally, he has friends in the London City Hall. Maggins immediately responded positively, and wanted to go around London with Alan Wilson. Everyone could see the urban renewal caused by the London smog incident.

There are still invisible ones. Makins pointed to the underground passage, "The expansion of the subway planned in [-] has already started. This project is no less than the urban reconstruction project."

"That's really gratifying." Alan Wilson was stunned for a moment, and then said with great interest, "Then let's go to the subway and see how the world's first subway is operating. I am also planning to go to Kuala Lumpur. , Singapore to build two subways. If it is feasible, the order of subway equipment, of course, depends on domestic companies.”

"This is very pleasing." Maggins' eyes lit up. As a senior official of the London City Hall, he certainly has connections with related companies, and he saw the business opportunities inside at a glance.

The London Underground has been in operation for more than 100 years. In the early days, in order to draw the smoke from steam locomotives underground, ventilation holes were drilled in the built tunnels.

While talking, the two entered the nearest subway station in Whitehall, and waited to go to the East District to have a look. After all, it was also thanks to him, the High Commissioner of Malaya. While waiting for the subway, the two of them had endless conversations. Point of the past.

He had already finished smoking a cigarette, and the subway hadn't arrived yet. At the end, Maggins looked at his watch frequently, and frowned slightly, "The subway has fixed routes, why is it so late?"

At this moment, the belated subway finally heard Lord Sheffield's call.

And the passengers at this station were already very impatient, almost all angry, obviously very dissatisfied with the lateness of the subway.

"It seems that the subway is late beyond the normal range?" Alan Wilson said when he heard the dissatisfied noise around him.

"Probably, I don't sit for a long time." Maggins has his own private car. This time, he just went out with his friends to check the operation of the subway. When Alan Wilson returned to Kuala Lumpur, he asked The subway plan is well known.

The subway had just stopped, and in the carriage facing the two, a group of passengers got off the train cursing. Two police officers twisted a woman with a bloody face to get off. The woman was obviously drunk and was twisted out. Still struggling all the time, yelling, "What are you doing, I won't leave."

"Take this shrew away quickly, Mr. Police Officer." A passenger in the same carriage shouted impatiently, obviously he was also delayed by the time, which caused dissatisfaction.

Compared with the hurried passengers, Alan Wilson and the others obviously had plenty of time, and they were very curious to understand the ins and outs.It was finally determined that it was an ordinary case of drunken riots.

As British gentlemen, the two had a friendly onlooker, and even missed the subway this time.But the matter didn't end there. One of the police officers obviously knew Maggins, and said hello embarrassedly, "Lord Sheffield, why are you here."

"Accompany my friend to do the subway and look around, and I didn't expect to have unexpected gains." Ma Jinsi replied with a wry smile.

Alan Wilson looked at the woman curiously. Where did she get hurt? The expression on her face was the standard expression of the Melon Islands. She asked Maggins' friend, "How are you going to deal with it?"

"Put it in the police station and lock it up for a few days. We have dealt with many similar things." The police officer said calmly, but the scratches on his face were still very conspicuous.

"Oh, that's right." Alan Wilson looked at the scratches on the opponent's face and asked insincerely, "Does this happen often? I mean, similar situations."

Both policemen nodded. Although Britain's reputation for drinking is not as good as that of the Soviets, it is actually not bad at all.

The reason why he didn't label himself as an alcoholic? Is this a problem?Don't even look at who has the hegemony of public opinion?

While the two sides were talking, the woman was still swearing and accusing the police of violent law enforcement, but the two policemen didn't care. It was obviously not the first time they had faced such a thing, and they just apologized to the two Whitehall civil servants.

"Actually, this will not have the effect of killing one and others. So the subway in London is often late? And the environment of the subway is not good?" Alan Wilson withdrew his gaze from looking at the woman, and questioned the two policemen. What the hell? It's not capitalistic at all, who will bear the loss caused by the delay?

Who will accompany the loss of passengers on the entire subway line?The Labor cabinet seems to claim to combine the advantages of capitalism and socialism, not the disadvantages of both.

"Record the identity of this woman." Alan Wilson looked at Makins, Lord Sheffield looked indifferent, and then continued, "Calculate the additional costs and losses along the entire line due to the delay, and then sue her, I believe that the court will send the bill to her home, this is a positive case, and I believe there will be very few such things on the subway line in the future."

"Alan, this is just a woman." Makins was surprised when he heard that, "She can't afford this money for the rest of her life."

"I have eyes, Makins, and I can tell that this is a woman." Alan Wilson pointed to his eyes and said, "I love women, and my wife is a woman. But we have to be responsible for the entire country, otherwise we will How to run the country? You can't let her go just because she's a woman."

Alan Wilson is upright and upholds national justice. Of course he understands the consequences of letting a woman bear the list of losses. Isn't it social death?Even if one person pays an unbearable price of life, it can reduce similar incidents in the entire city. This deal is too good-for-nothing.

Even in London, Alan Wilson still did not change his true nature as a Saigon boxing champion. He just made this woman pay a little price, at most it was social death. If she couldn't think about committing suicide, that was her freedom.

"Maybe it's a good idea." As a professional bureaucrat, Maggins said to the two police officers, "Just do it like this."

"That's right." Alan Wilson said appreciatively, "This is also in London. If you were in the country of the Peace Church, let alone challenge the public sentiment of the citizens, you should be stoned if you dare to take the subway."

Out of gentlemanly demeanor, the two waved goodbye to the police, and waited for the next subway station to arrive before heading to the East District.

While the two are doing good deeds every day, the Cabinet Office is drafting professional opinions on the partition of Sudan, explaining how to avoid the tragedy of British India, and responsible for reducing the possibility of colonial conflicts while Britain makes the colonies independent.

After Norman Brooke's professional opinion was released, he brought it to No. [-] Downing Street and asked Prime Minister Attlee to pay attention.

"The partition of British India caused a lot of casualties." Attlee was a little suspicious, and seemed unable to make up his mind.

"That's because when the two religions are together, casualties are not paid attention to." Norman Brooke said, "We invite both parties to talk. Even if there is a fight, as long as it doesn't affect others."

Chapter 813 The Algerian War

"In principle, we respect the majority and protect the minority, but if there is a power vacuum after the British withdrawal, the Arabs may not continue to do so. At that time, the situation of the British will be very embarrassing. If we stand on the side of the blacks, The Arab countries may be dissatisfied, but on the side of the Arabs, what would the blacks in British Africa think?"

"So the separation of Sudan is to clarify the boundaries between the two. If you intervene in the future, you will not be criticized."

"Is that so?" Listening to Norman Brooke's words, Prime Minister Attlee asked after a long time.

"Indeed, dear Prime Minister." Norman Brook said with a look of winning, "For this reason, I specially asked Allen to come back to deal with this difficult matter. The Prime Minister knows that he is the assistant commissioner of British India. In [-], he handled the independence issue of British India very well. He is a very rare talent among the young officials in Whitehall. The prosperous Malaya colony can prove this.”

Attlee nodded directly after listening. He remembered the young official not because he was Mountbatten's son-in-law.It is purely that Alan Wilson's resume is too hard. In the last two years of British India, with the entire British Indian civil servants, he scraped out nearly [-] million pounds.

Turn around and go to Newfoundland to be the chief executive, reverse the debt-laden Newfoundland finances, and directly extinguish the wave of independence in Newfoundland. As a result of the final referendum, Newfoundland was transformed into a royal territory, creating an offshore center in North America.

The current royal territory of Newfoundland has no post-war difficulties, and the standard of living has already caught up with that of the United States and Canada. The existing gaming industry alone can take good care of the residents of Newfoundland.

Although the Congress is dissatisfied with this practice of the gaming industry and considers it a very depraved policy, the Newfoundland Parliament and the British Parliament are not subordinate to each other, and have never been deaf to similar opinions.

Newfoundland is willing to be a royal territory. It is purely because the small country next to the big country has a sense of crisis. It is afraid of becoming part of Canada or the United States and loses its local autonomy. It does not have this problem for the United Kingdom. After all, Newfoundland is separated from the United Kingdom by an Atlantic Ocean, which is very far away produce beauty.

After finishing his career as chief executive in Newfoundland, Alan Wilson went non-stop to the High Commissioner of the Colonial Race in Malaya. At the same time, he served as the Deputy Secretary-General of the Overseas Assets Management Committee, integrating the wealth of overseas colonies, and managing British Malaya on the front line. .

Now less than 30 years old, he is the chief executive of a colony of nearly 50 square kilometers, and he also manages overseas assets of more than 35 billion pounds.The steel output of the Malayan colony alone has caught up with the British mainland in a short period of time, filling the demand in the pound zone and stabilizing the crumbling pound zone.

Moving to the three major colonies, each of them has achieved outstanding results, and it is impossible for people not to pay attention.

"If Alan pays attention to it personally, the situation should not get out of control." Prime Minister Attlee finally expressed optimism, "Of course, whether we can separate the relationship is the most important thing. Norman, you know, some countries always It is to say that the British divided British India on purpose, which is not the case."

"After all, we don't want tragedies to happen. It should be handled by someone with similar experience." Norman Brooke agreed loudly. "The most important thing is that I hope Britain will not be burdened with morality in the future."

Alan Wilson, who was returning home in Maggins' private car, was very happy with the changes in the East End. He kept boasting along the way, feeling like Alan was born in heaven, and Great Britain is like a long night.

As for the subway incident that happened during the day, it was also considered an incident. Ant-like things can be trampled to death if they are said to be trampled to death.

It's a pity that London can't ask for logistical support now, so this matter is more difficult. The other party's royal limited edition luxury car has already stated that it can be tested at any time, but in London, the capital of the empire, is it enough to test drive a royal luxury car?

The risk is still very high, and this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, and it is more safe to do things on one's own site.

He tossed and turned that night, and even when he accepted Norman Brook's appointment the next day, he was a little absent-minded.

"Alan, I believe you have already felt the Prime Minister's trust in you." Norman Brook was only a young official with a bright future, just because he came back from Asia, and he didn't have much jet lag. He asked, "About Sudan Independent things, what do you think?"
