British civil servant

"I think Mr. Nixon should use the military government as an excuse to show that South Korea is not part of the free world."

Nixon was silent for a while, and it seemed that today's situation was far more difficult than what he had discussed with the British Foreign Secretary and the Permanent Undersecretary of the Foreign Office.

He didn't know that if he hadn't discussed it too deeply with McMillan and Alan Wilson, he wouldn't have encountered such a difficult situation today.

"Of course not, how could the military government be the free world." Alan Wilson said directly, kicked South Korea out of the free world, and changed the subject, "Actually, comparing these third world countries can't prove anything, Isn’t Germany the best comparison object, there is no need to compare South Korea and North Korea.”

The standard of living in North Korea in this era was far higher than that in South Korea, and this comparison is not good for Britain and the United States.

Naturally, Allen Wilson expelled South Korea from the free world nationality, and drew the comparison to the Federal Republic of Germany and the Democratic Republic of Germany.

"The Federal Republic of Germany is an important industrial area in the former Germany, and its population area is several times that of the Democratic Germany." Fultseva spoke in fluent English. "On the contrary, North Korea and South Korea's indicators are at the same starting line."

"Argument is not a quarrel." Allen Wilson smiled calmly, "It's better to take a look at the exhibition. Dear Madam, Vice President Nixon and ministers did not come to Moscow specifically to quarrel, but with full We came here with good intentions. We all understand that peace and development are the mainstream. The catastrophe of the two world wars has left mankind with great disasters and heavy lessons. People all over the world have a strong pursuit of peace; .”

"Yes, we agree with the British side." Nixon suppressed his displeasure and smiled, "Instead of aggressively arguing who is right and who is wrong, let time tell everything. Talk about what we have in our washing machines Advantages, wouldn't it be better than talking about the power of our rockets? Isn't that what you want?"

"Yeah, that's the kind of competition we want, but your generals say they're strong enough to destroy us. We can show you something, too, to show you the spirit of the Soviet Union. We're strong , we can beat you. In this regard, we can also give you something to watch."

"Cheers to peace and the abolition of all military bases abroad." Khrushchev raised his glass and looked around, followed by applause.

Nixon did not raise his glass. "We are simply toasting to peace."

"I wish Comrade Khrushchev a long life." Brezhnev raised his glass to wish, and then Fultseva led other Soviet cadres to raise their glasses.

Nixon finally raised his glass. "I drink to this. We don't agree with your policies, but we wish you health. Long life."

"This is also our wish." McMillan raised his glass, "for the peace and development of the world."

"For the peace and development of the world." Alan Wilson followed the tone of the foreign minister, and then the British diplomatic delegation raised their glasses, "For the peace and development of the world."

Alan Wilson, who was addicted to alcohol, wondered, who the hell won?Anyway, in the history in my mind, no one has won, but the Soviet Union lost earlier, and the United States lost later. The good life in Nixon’s mouth in the United States has been anti-intellectual red neck, black life is expensive, and one tenth of the population is addicted replaced by the United States.

The Soviet Union is no longer the Soviet Union, but is the United States still the United States?Nixon pinned his hopes on a United States of America supported by the middle class, and the middle class in it was no longer the middle class Nixon saw.

The first thousand and four chapters have a bright future

Allen Wilson knew what to do with the entire debate, which was recorded by electronic cameras.

When the U.S. broadcasts, Nixon's voice will be louder, and Khrushchev's words will be smaller. This will cause Nixon to defend the free world, and Khrushchev will be suppressed and unable to move.

The Soviet Union's approach was relatively simple. When Nixon did not exist, it only reported passages in which Khrushchev angrily denounced US imperialism.

Then there is no third party present in history, and the British way of handling it is ready to come out. As the conscience of the free world, the UK must uphold the principle of neutrality and tell the world the objective facts.

Emphasizing the mediation of Foreign Secretary Macmillan, the United States and the Soviet Union are at war, but fortunately, Britain is in the middle to reconcile.

In this way, Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union can all win. You lead your second world, and I lead my first world. Both have a bright future.

Alan Wilson felt that this might establish the authority of the UK in the field of news and get very wow benefits.

He didn't know whether a kitchen in the United States that cost [-] dollars could really be affordable by all Americans. Anyway, at this price, Britain, which is currently close to the per capita income of the United States, cannot afford it.It is absolutely impossible to exchange four years of income for only one kitchen. A house is not just a kitchen.

The kitchen debate was over. After a debate, no one could convince anyone. After leaving the expo, the British and American delegations returned to the Ukrainian Hotel. Nixon did not have enough time. After completing the task of presiding over the opening of the American expo this time, he was ready to go go home.

"The Soviets were more difficult to deal with than I imagined." Nixon still had lingering fears, thinking about whether his response was appropriate. Nixon, who was aspiring to the US presidency, naturally could not take this debate lightly.

This mentality can't be hidden from Alan Wilson, otherwise, what would this hardcore anti-Soviet element come to Moscow for? It's not to come here to create a sense of presence.It's a pity that it's still cheaper than Kennedy's little boy.

"Vice President Nixon, you are admirable for defending the concept of the free world, and you did not fall into the trap of the Soviets' rhetoric." Alan Wilson started the flattering mode, and at the same time pointed out the role of the United Kingdom, "It is to doubt the Soviet Union's dark actions, We only came here specially, otherwise the Soviet Union would engage in conspiracy on this occasion."

"The Soviets did conspire, but the electronic cameras in the field can't lie." Nixon chuckled, boasting about the latest achievements of the United States. "Machines can't lie."

"I know." Alan Wilson nodded, since he knew, then Fultseva knew.

Of course, in order to maintain the special relationship between Britain and the United States, Nixon is not suitable to know about this.

Alan Wilson was not selfish for his own consideration, but for Nixon's consideration. A person who aspires to the presidency may be taken advantage of by his competitors if he shows unreliable performance on such an important occasion.

As a gentleman, Alan Wilson felt obliged to avoid this embarrassment for Nixon, not all for himself.

Knowing that Nixon was about to return to the United States, McMillan said goodbye after a few pleasantries without disturbing Nixon's rest.

However, things on the UK side still need to be explained, such as how to highlight the role of the UK in this debate, and at the same time show an independent third-party point of view, so as to avoid the image of completely agreeing with the United States.

Alan Wilson had guessed it a long time ago, and asked Wick to greet the country through the embassy in Moscow immediately.

"The Soviet Union may not know that the United States is now accumulating huge wealth." McMillan was a little moved.

"Maybe you know. After all, the Soviet Union is a country twice the size of the United States and almost the same area as the entire North America." Alan Wilson sighed. Although most of the territory of the Soviet Union is tundra, the tundra cannot be cultivated. Representatives cannot do anything else.Resources have nothing to do with whether it is a tundra or not. The barren land in Australia is only better than the Sahara Desert. Isn’t mining like a boom?

"Alan, it seems that you also have a certain understanding of the Soviet Union." McMillan chuckled, "It is estimated that the ministers of the Labor Party and their wishful thinking about the Soviet Union have affected you."

"Civil servants adhere to the principle of non-intervention in party affairs and will not be affected by such remarks." Alan Wilson flatly denied, "Dear Minister, the political differences between the Conservative Party and the Labor Party have nothing to do with us public officials."

"I am not questioning the political neutrality of Whitehall." Macmillan immediately said that Alan Wilson had misunderstood, and he was not doubting the loyalty of the permanent secretary.

In fact, even if you are skeptical, Alan Wilson has lived under both political systems.

Of course, he has never seen a fully planned economy. In essence, China is only considered a planned economy during the five years when it was an advisor to the Soviet Union. Will it be in the future?A planned economy on paper.

In his opinion, the two systems have their own advantages and disadvantages. The Soviet economic system relied on pointers, and some plans could not be calculated.For example, how many sanitary napkins do Soviet women need?The British gentleman does not know why he thought of this example, it is better to change it.

Can the appetite be calculated?Even if it is possible, people's needs can not only be solved by making flour at that time.What about other needs?Is the bread from the flour not sweet enough?How to deal with it?

Is there a guaranteed supply of bread for each recipe?This will inevitably cause great waste. On the one hand, the supply is opened up because there are not many options, which will lead to all the food supplied being emptied, and these emptied food may not be really eaten. possible.

It's not that the Soviet Union never used bread to feed cows. The coexistence of waste and shortage was a problem in the Soviet economic system.

In some areas, the supply of the Soviet Union can be described as massive, ignoring the problem of cost.The price of a set of wrench kits was the same in [-] as it was in [-], and the price of twelve kopecks was directly stamped on the wrench.

Once the planned economy is wrong, there will be a lot of facilities that are not particularly needed in the construction, and a bunch of them will be built.

Almost every city and even a large town in the entire Soviet Union will have supporting cinemas, trade union clubs, children's palaces and libraries, auditoriums, football fields, gymnasiums, matching schools, kindergartens, etc.

Why Alan Wilson knew these configurations, because he saw it with his own eyes when he was young in his previous life. The town where he lived had a permanent population of only tens of thousands of people, and there was a movie theater with a capacity of 500 people.

As long as the population of the Soviet Union reaches a certain number, all the above configurations must be available, and there are almost no exceptions.It is said that the Soviet Union may not be able to provide housing, but the above-mentioned facilities are political tasks, which are much more important than any housing.

With Nixon gone, so would the British delegation, and Alan Wilson would spend his final days in Moscow.

Furtseva's red tide has not subsided, and she has a satisfied expression on her face. This time she is very satisfied with the heroic performance of the British gentleman, and she is not stingy to praise her. Husband saw it, which made Fultseva willing to give Alan Wilson a little sweetness.

"Ekaterina." Alan Wilson was a little embarrassed, and took advantage of the good mood of the Cultural Tsar to speak, "I think..."

"No." Fultseva flatly refused without waiting for Alan Wilson to say it, and she had already blown it before.Even if it's a reward, this man should be more modest.

"Ah?" Alan Wilson didn't know the twists and turns of the cultural tsar. He really had something to say, and he needed Fultseva's help. "I have a big matter, and I need the cooperation of the Soviet Union. Only you can help the United Kingdom." .”

Only then did Furtseva realize that she had misunderstood. Fortunately, she couldn't see it because the red tide hadn't receded. She was embarrassed, "What's the matter? Don't expect me to betray the motherland. There is such a thing as patriotism in this world."

"Don't make a sound and listen to me. Make sure that only you know about this matter. Once it is revealed that even though you are one of the few big figures in the Soviet Union, it will not be able to explain clearly." Alan Wilson pulled the cultural czar up, and his eyes met to show the seriousness of the matter , and then said, "Britain has a plan to overthrow the Sukarno regime, and I know that the United States also has..."

Alan Wilson explained that the Indonesian government has become a thorn in the side of the free world. The Sukarno regime will definitely try to overthrow the move to get closer to China and the Soviet Union.The United States gives economic aid to the Indonesian military every year. The Indonesian military and Indonesian parties are on the opposite side.

The Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Yani, Lieutenant General Panjaitan and Major General Haryono, Major General Supraputo, Major General Perlman and Brigadier General Sudozo, General Nasution and Suharto are all in the in.

"Are you going to attack Indonesia?" Fultseva stared blankly at Alan Wilson, as if judging the authenticity of this matter.

"Do you think we can't do it? Indonesia is an archipelago. With the naval power of ours and the United States, I can't say that it will succeed. It is easy to provoke a civil war." Alan Wilson said indifferently.

"Don't you and the United States wear a pair of pants?" Fultseva still didn't believe it, even though the two had just done the manned spaceflight that only the closest relationship can do.

"The United Kingdom and the United States have a gap in national strength, which is still irreparable at present." Alan Wilson said gloomily, "The Malaya colony must be protected by the United Kingdom. If the Soviet Union launches an attack, the United Kingdom will undoubtedly fight. But if the United States puts pressure on the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom may compromise. If Indonesia becomes a Soviet-style country, the United Kingdom will have reason to stay in Malaya, and the United States will not take actions against the United Kingdom to force the United Kingdom to abandon Malay sub-colonies. On the contrary, the United States will help Britain."

"Sometimes, for the sake of the national interest, we have to cooperate with the enemy and abandon the so-called close allies."

"It's all calculated by you." Fultseva looked into Alan Wilson's eyes and shook her head.

"This is also good for the Soviet Union. You got Indonesia, so we all have a bright future." Alan Wilson grabbed Fultseva's hand and promised, "Ekaterina, I am also helping you."

Chapter 1 Betrayed Nixon

For the sake of the United Kingdom, Alan Wilson can even sell his soul. Maybe there will be no patriots like him in the United Kingdom in the future. He is in the center of the enemy's country and does not forget to seek benefits for the country.If there is a next time, he will also have no hesitation.

"Why don't you go to the motherland of the Chinese? Most of the Chinese are in Malaya, and there are also a lot of Indonesians. Is it easier to operate through the Chinese?" Fultseva wanted to pull out her hand, and was still caught by Alan Wilson Clinging tightly, you can only let it go.

"This is a very sharp question. But I have nothing to hide. We feel that there is a problem with the other party's mentality. This time period is not suitable for contact." Alan Wilson said in his heart that he did not dare to put himself in it, and a revolutionary enthusiasm It is a very dangerous thing to cooperate with other countries.

The Soviet Union is different. At least for now, the Soviet Union has gone through the stage of vigorous enthusiasm just after its establishment, fanning the flames everywhere and opposing imperialism.A certain big country is still at this stage.

At the critical moment, when people's revolutionary enthusiasm came up, they betrayed Alan Wilson, an imperialist, without any hesitation, and might even comment with a scornful tone. The imperialist dog-eat-dog struggle was seized by the great... or something.

"Well, there is a possibility." Fultseva nodded examiningly, "I didn't expect you British people to understand better than us, and you will end up like this in exchange for your support."

Fultseva immediately shut up, but how could Alan Wilson not know that a rift had appeared in the hostile camp, and smiled slightly, "It is a stupid move to support other countries' industrialization."

"Don't you also support Malaya?" Fultseva tilted her head and asked, then smiled wryly, "By the way, that is your colony. Of course you don't have to worry about it."

If I were you, I would treat all disputes coldly and block all information from the East.

It's a pity that Alan Wilson is British. He must not make suggestions for the Soviet Union. The enemy will kill the free world if it grows stronger. Even if Alan Wilson doesn't consider himself, he must also consider the tragedy of his wife who is poor and worth more than 20 billion pounds Life.

"Only with the strength of the Soviet Union can you support a country like Indonesia. Other countries in your camp cannot do it. If we cooperate with the motherland of the Chinese, we must also consider that the Chinese in Indonesia are not trusted by the Indonesian military. The goal is huge. Yes. This is not conducive to secrecy, and your secret planning by the Soviet Union has greatly improved the concealment."

Alan Wilson is still convincing Fultseva, "Once successful, Indonesia will become a very good ally of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union's allies are generally not in tropical countries, and some tropical specialties are lacking in the Soviet Union. Complementarity is still very good. Big. In fact, for many countries, as long as a reliable armed force of [-] people can make the final decision. And when we do it, we, the UK, will cooperate."

"Isn't your Soviet KGB powerful? Isn't it possible to infiltrate a small country?"

Fultseva is a little tempted. If it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to the country, and the same is true for herself.

Thinking of this, Fultseva's face softened a little, "You have made a lot of money. If we don't do anything, the British colonies will be gradually dismantled by the United States, just like the Iran crisis."

"Don't be too complacent. Iran still has the interests of the Soviet Union. The United States drove us away, and it will be your turn next. You should consider Iran's affairs now in Moscow."

Alan Wilson snorted, and said in a strange way, "And on the Iran issue, even if we fail to sanction Iran, and then the United States expels the influence of the Soviet Union, Britain will still stand by the United States. If you don't believe me, you can watch it later. Look, if there had to be a choice between the Soviet Union and the United States, Britain would have to choose the United States."

"You want to say that the Soviet Union should not target Britain." Fultseva's eyes sparkled, and she said firmly, "Once Britain loses its sphere of influence supporting Britain, it will reappear as a vassal of the United States. You are still for Britain .”

"But it is also good for the Soviet Union." Alan Wilson still did not deny that he was considering the stability of the interests of the United Kingdom, and then changed the subject, "As far as this night is concerned, what the Soviet Union got from the United Kingdom is more important than how many spies are lurking." It works. I don't think it's too much for me to ask for something."

Fultseva was taken aback, then blushed, and the cultural tsar, who was all-powerful in the kitchen debate, bent down.

Huh... Allen Wilson raised his neck, with a look of a man who deserves to be beaten. The close cooperation between Britain and the Soviet Union is also possible on certain occasions. It is a win-win situation.

At two o'clock in the middle of the night, Fultseva, who was brimming with a happy smile, left the Ukrainian Grand Hotel.When parting, the two embraced each other for a long time. At this stage, they knew each other very well that the other was an important passer-by in their lives.

"If you have my child, the whole world will be shocked by the news." Alan Wilson teased the cultural tsar without concealing his dark psychology.

Fultseva's face changed slightly, but she immediately covered it up, and responded condescendingly, "You are simply thinking too much."

"It's such a pity." Alan Wilson, holding a stick, watched Fultseva's figure disappear by the window, sleeping, a loyal and hardworking imperial civil servant, and now he must consider returning home.

Because of the seamless transmission of electronic cameras, the entire process of the kitchen debate has been broadcast all over the world.Regarding the winner of this debate, the United States and the Soviet Union insisted that they were the winners.

"I firmly believe that peace and development are the mainstream." Back in London, Foreign Secretary Macmillan, in an interview with the radio, emphasized that the scene was very tense at that time. It will not lose control and relieve the tense emotions.

"About the free trade proposed by the Soviet Union and the lifting of the embargo, it is also concerned by many citizens at this time." The host nodded and raised this question.

"This is a very sharp question." McMillan laughed, and then said, "You see, from the perspective of the United Kingdom, we are of course happy to see world peace and emphasize the importance of development. But we also I understand that the development of various parts of the world is uneven and cannot be generalized. Many experiences and lessons have shown that aspirations are good, but various problems will always appear in the process of practice, so it is necessary to come up with a safe solution. Avoid unavoidable collateral damage."

"As for the issue of structural adjustment at the macro level, it is a broader field. But the beginning of the dialogue is positive. I believe that a constructive plan will be presented in the future, and it will be implemented at that time."

"Mr. editor-in-chief, what do you think I'm doing?" Alan Wilson turned his head and saw that the editor-in-chief of the radio station was staring at him, with a half-smiling look as if he had discovered something.

"Nothing." The editor-in-chief looked away, and asked casually, "Are you satisfied with the minister's performance?"

"Oh, a very sharp question, I am very willing to answer this question." Alan Wilson replied calmly, "From the perspective of a civil servant and a minister, I cannot evaluate whether the minister's opinions on some issues are reasonable , which would violate the neutrality of the civil service. It would be detrimental to the professionalism of Whitehall, in a word...”

As the studio interview continued, the host asked one final question, "There seems to be something misunderstood by the minister regarding the debate on women's issues."

"I absolutely support the protection of women's rights." McMillan's answer was firm.

"But the minister seems to have expressed his approval of Nixon's words." The host continued to ask questions relentlessly.

"No, I don't agree." McMillan shirked his responsibilities completely, wondering if he had been to Sichuan to study Chinese culture, "On the contrary, I have some doubts about Mr. view."

On major issues involving approval ratings, a politician will not make mistakes. Alan Wilson is relieved by McMillan's performance, although he betrayed Nixon.

It seems that when he was preparing for the interview, he didn't intercept this question, and it still had the desired effect.

On the issue of himself facing criticism from female voters and Nixon facing criticism from women, the seasoned foreign secretary is more inclined to the latter.

Moscow, at the meeting of the Presidium of the Soviet Central Committee, when Khrushchev said that he would visit the United States, Fultseva frowned slightly, but she swallowed her words back. The man who had left Moscow reminded her that he defended Khrushchev back then. Xiaofu's actions are just not in line with the politics of the Soviet Union, just look at Zhukov's fate.

But in the Soviet Union, there was a person with a very sophisticated political sense, and that was Brezhnev. Fortseva, who wanted to speak, saw that Brezhnev did not speak, and she did not speak either.

"We don't know that we are going to visit the United States, but some important countries." Khrushchev looked at Foreign Minister Gromyko, "Comrade Gromyko, make a careful itinerary."

"Comrade Khrushchev, we will definitely get things done." Gromyko nodded, coping with the gaze from the first secretary, "I believe the world will be shocked by then."

People are all concerned about the fate of the world. For example, Alan Wilson also has his own job. With the care of Vivien Leigh and Audrey Hepburn, he has to wipe the ass of Foreign Secretary Macmillan in his busy schedule.

By clarifying the misunderstanding to Nixon through both formal and private channels, McMillan himself was finished. Disrespect for women is now entirely on Nixon, which may affect the special relationship between Britain and the United States.
