British civil servant

Of the twelve departments of the General Directorate of Defense Espionage, three and six of them can be arranged?But Alexeyev was obviously not willing to go in and waste his time.

"I'll go to the Eleventh Department of the First General Administration. This department is quite special. Although it is an external department, it is actually similar to domestic work, and I don't often go abroad." Alekseyev deliberated and decided. Worked in the Foreign Intelligence Service, decided to work in the Advisory Department, which was easy to arrange.

The Eleventh Department of the General Administration of Foreign Intelligence is actually responsible for the work of the Soviet allies, coordinating the intelligence agencies of the Soviet allies to cooperate and carry out collective actions, and it can be said to be guidance.

Nearly two hundred diplomats are also members of this department, from Havana in Latin America, Berlin, Warsaw, Prague, and Sofia in Eastern Europe, to Damascus, Aden in the Middle East, and Kinshasa in Africa.

"The Advisory Department is mainly to guide the work of the allies, and most of the work is in Eastern Europe, that's okay." Fultseva was relieved. He still doesn't want his son to go abroad all the time, but it is still acceptable within the scope of Eastern Europe, " And you should get married earlier, you are not too young, so I can feel at ease."

Kryuchkov presided over the promotion of Alekseev on behalf of Andropov. Alekseev, who returned from England, was promoted to colonel and was appointed as the head of the eleventh department of the Foreign Intelligence Service. Responsible for liaising and coordinating the relations between the Soviet Union and various allies.

To be promoted to colonel at this age is one step away from being a general. Except for the group of Shelepin who rode rockets after the war, it can be said to be very rare.Not much inside the KGB, but it is not unacceptable to think of Brezhneva's husband, Yuri Mikhailovich Churbanov, who for a year rushed straight to the colonel.

At least compared with Brezhnev's son-in-law, Alexeyev has actually cracked several major espionage cases, and he has meritorious service from any point of view. Age is no longer a big problem.

"The chairman is very much looking forward to Alyosha being able to achieve proud achievements in the eleventh department." Kryuchkov, as Andropov's close friend and confidant, in a sense also represents Lubyanka's No. [-] view.

"Comrade Kryuchkov, I will do my best." Alekseev assured with a serious face, and immediately entered the state after Kryuchkov left, picked up the phone and said directly, "I am Alek Shayev, I need information on the Middle East, especially on the Israeli-Palestinian issue."

"The potential of the Xiangjiang River has not yet been tapped. I hope that the trade in East Asia will be a torrent, a torrent that nourishes the body of the British Empire. Wherever it passes, it is like turning a desert into an oasis."

At the Asian Economic and Trade Conference held by the British Foreign Office, Alan Wilson vowed to shout slogans. Have you ever chatted with your elder brother before?Those are minor issues. Sino-British relations are not Sino-Soviet relations. Diplomatic work cannot be rigid, but must show full flexibility.

The first thousand and 430 chapters and six watergate incidents

"John, as the first ambassador to China, worked very hard. After taking office, he has been working non-stop. Now we have learned some things. In terms of scale, since [-], they have achieved It is undeniable that China has made great progress. Of course, once the market is opened, there will be nothing left, which can be understood as a weaker Soviet Union in all aspects.”

The ability of a certain big country to collect data has already been seen for the first time. Of course, it cannot be compared with the Soviet Union, which is the most capable of collecting data in this era, but in all aspects, it has definitely broken free from the category of a weak country.It can even be said that if it is during a war, it is also a well-known existence.

The weakness is also the same as that of the Soviet Union. No one dares to underestimate the total amount. If competition is really open, there will be no place to die. The total amount of each field can be equal to that of the British mainland, but the population of the British mainland is only 5000 million, and the population of a big country The industrial scale has to cope with a population of [-] million, and it may be [-] million in the next year or two.

Alan Wilson raised the diplomatic documents in his hand, "I made a prediction. Now they are extremely short of foreign exchange in their hands, just like the lack of dollars in Europe after the war. Do gentlemen know what this means? And do you know? This is for the pound. What does it mean?"

Like the lack of dollars in postwar Europe?This premise itself is a reminder that in the first ten years of the Bretton Woods system, European countries were facing a dollar shortage.

The excessive issuance of the U.S. dollar was a matter of entering the 60s. During the U.S. dollar shortage period, citizens of European countries worked desperately to earn foreign exchange.

Of course, Britain and France are some exceptions. Although the two countries are also collecting dollars, they are mainly busy with their own affairs. Sterling endorsement, scraping land in the colony is also part of the quick realization.

For other countries, the colonies can't produce anything. Besides, the sun never sets in all countries. Britain can scrape the land and make the colonies independent, and other countries can scrape the colonies once and then they will disappear.

Then all countries naturally work hard to get rich for the sake of US dollar foreign exchange. Is this relationship between Europe and the United States fair?That's naturally unfair, but at that time you need to do sweatshops.

With the increase of European dollars, there is no shortage of dollars on the market, and Europe has started to do something about the Bretton Woods system with dollars.

The trade deficit that lasted for more than ten years after the reform and opening up is actually similar to the period when Europe was in a dollar shortage after the war. From a trade point of view, it is a loss. For trade, when there is no shortage of dollars, you can have the leisure to think about whether to do something.

Judging from the time, most of the dividends of unfair trade after the opening of the country for more than ten years should have been eaten by Japan. Why should Japan?

"Secretary-General, now that Nixon is visiting China, the political obstacles have been lifted." Wake has now been appointed as the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and is also the chief private secretary of the foreign minister.

Now he is the number two person in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he will become the executive deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The joy of being promoted has not completely dissipated. After understanding the meaning of supreme authority, Wick directly puffed up his chest proudly and made a good job. Fans, don't let the diplomatic conference become a stand-up comedy, even the supreme authority can't say everything by itself.

Alan Wilson gave a look of approval, and said, "Yes, the biggest obstacle is gone. So according to the experience in post-war Europe and the evaluation sent by John, I respect them and treat them as war In the post-European period, there will be at least ten years of trade dividends. Calculated on an industrial scale, the value of the pound will be more stable. Everyone knows that the pound, as a recognized strong currency in the world, is not conducive to exports but conducive to imports.”

"Facing the squeeze of the US dollar, we worked hard and with a bit of luck, we finally managed to maintain the dignity of the British Empire. Even now, with the scale of the industry in the UK and Malaya, it is very difficult to support the circulation of the pound zone. "

But if you add a certain big country, this is not a problem. Alan Wilson knows that a certain big country will feel it sooner or later. You can eat enough, so you won't eat today?From now on, it will be a matter of the future, and he wants to live well today.

"This year and even in the next few years, we have the following goals, to maintain the current circulation of the British pound based on Bangladesh's demand, and to crack down on smuggling after Nixon's visit to China. We have allowed Hong Kong smuggling for many years, and now we should collect some taxes. .And then wait for the start of free trade. I hope that both goals can be successful, and at least one must be successful. Anyway, they can’t both fail.”

Alan Wilson put on a pretentious posture with his fingers crossed and his chin resting on his shoulders again, "A potential competitor is Japan. Our advantage is that Malaya is not far away in absolute distance. Xiangjiang is even more important. Political obstacles have already The release is the time to comprehensively promote economic and trade relations, let MacLehose fully promote entrepot trade, and everything is centered on this goal."

"There are also many things that can't be said directly, but should be done, that is, the list of the Paris Coordinating Committee should lift some restrictions. Of course, don't make it too obvious."

The current Bretton Woods system exists in name only, and there is only one formal meeting to say goodbye to the system. The UK must find the next anchor for the liquidity of the pound.

Whitehall has already decided that from the perspective of productivity, Europe is not good anyway, and Britain cannot allow any European country to endorse itself. Japan's productivity is sufficient, but it is the private land of the United States.This is actually a choice with no other choice. If you don't look for a certain big country, who do you look for?

After the meeting, Alan Wilson went to the Ministry of Finance, and after discussing with Frank, he went to No. [-] Downing Street to find the Prime Minister, explaining the latest research results of Whitehall and the fact that the potential enemy in economics and trade is Japan.

"Looking at it this way, should I visit after Nixon?" Harold Wilson said very solemnly after listening, "You have also explained the meaning of economic and trade relations very clearly."

"Really? Don't be so anxious. We are still not sure whether the US policy is coherent. After all, some sources believe that this time Nixon's running mate is Rockefeller. In this way, I will talk to the royal family. If Prince Charles can do something for the UK Contribute? He should also make some contribution."

Alan Wilson made his own suggestion, and the Prime Minister nodded in agreement. Indeed, it is not known whether Nixon will be affected by major adjustments in international relations, and it is not appropriate for him to be so anxious.

It is not easy for the secretary-general of the cabinet to directly intervene in this matter, but does he have a good wife? Pamela Mountbatten has such a relationship with the royal family to discuss it. If it is rejected, the crown prince will be ashamed than the prime minister in the end. The impact of taking a trip is smaller.

"He didn't have to do anything, he just took a trip, and the cabinet didn't expect that big baboon to talk about anything. Even if Nixon visited China, we have to show that we are a country of the same level as the United States." Alan Wilson returned home, Immediately begin to unswervingly implement myself... It is the instructions of the cabinet, especially the prime minister.

"You are completely using Charles as a tool." Pamela Mountbatten curled her lips, pointing out her husband's subtle shortcomings.

"Without me, the House of Lords is just a show." Alan Wilson puffed up his chest proudly. The House of Lords is pressing harder and harder against the House of Commons. It's a question of economic strength.

Now that the nobles of the House of Lords have reversed the comparison in terms of economic strength, they dare not say that a counterattack is wrong, and it is impossible to retreat after being cut into sausages.

At this point, Alan Wilson dare not say that he is the great benefactor of the British aristocracy, but using other words to describe it is not enough to summarize one ten-thousandth of his contribution to the aristocracy.

The trip of Prince Charles has been several months later. Due to the limited space, it is impossible to say too clearly. At the same time as the crown prince's visit, Alan Wilson was at the Royal Armor Research Institute in Chobham.

In the long-term research process, the Royal Armor researchers discovered that oxide ceramics have high hardness and wear resistance, high compressive strength and excellent ballistic performance under high stress, and also realized that the bulletproof mechanism of ceramics and metals has a great influence The metal absorbs the kinetic energy of the projectile due to plastic deformation.

The ceramic absorbs the kinetic energy of the projectile due to its rupture. In a series of research and experiments, it was found that many performance indicators of the oxide ceramic have a great impact on the defense effect, such as density and porosity, hardness, Fracture toughness, Young's modulus, sound velocity, mechanical strength, etc.

"It seems that our armor power should also be updated." Alan Wilson commented with a smile. There has always been a quality gap between Western tanks and Soviet tanks.

It would be fine if they had a numerical advantage, and the quantitative advantage also belonged to others, and now they finally broke the situation in stages.

One night, after leaving the Watergate Building, a staff member of the headquarters of the Democratic Party of the United States accidentally looked back at his office. He was surprised to find that there were several beams of light shaking in the office where the lights had been turned off.

The colleagues have already left, so who entered the office again, turned off the lights, but lit the flashlight everywhere?He immediately returned to the Watergate Building and told the security guards about his doubts.The security guards immediately searched the relevant room and caught five suspicious-looking men wearing surgical gloves.

One of them, James McCord, claimed to be a former CIA employee.In fact, he was the chief adviser in charge of security for President Nixon's re-election campaign committee, and he was ordered to install wiretapping equipment at the Democratic Party headquarters in Watergate Building.

The first thousand and 430 chapters go and return

Early the next morning, the "Washington Post" reported the incident in a prominent position on the front page, and the Watergate incident began to be known to all parties.

"Secretary-General, have you heard? There are programs in the US elections." Maggins is also well-informed and has already heard about the Watergate incident in the United States.

"Makins, let's talk about the next-generation main battle tank plan." Alan Wilson reminded his friend to get to the point quickly, this is just the beginning.

As the incumbent president, it is not a problem for Nixon to press for a period of time. You must know that the power of the American president in the electoral country is the greatest in the free world. There is a saying that it is called the emperor with a term.

If it is really like what is currently reported, it is impossible to pull Nixon down. The reports are all the tip of the iceberg. Nixon's campaign team planned a series of political conspiracies against political opponents, including placing spies on opponents and other scandals. .

When Nixon learned that the captured thieves had participated in his own political conspiracy, in order to prevent the exposure of these political scandals, he repeatedly ordered legal counsel Dean to put pressure on the thieves and promised to compensate them later.

The Watergate incident only played an extended role, not the whole of the incident. If it was only reported on the surface, it would not be enough to make Nixon step down.

It’s too early to eat melons. There will be more time to eat in the future. Now let’s deal with the British affairs first, such as the renewal of armored forces in Europe. Who sees who is not confused?

If you want to talk about what Britain can use in the Watergate incident, it is impossible to do something to the United States, but what if you think differently?For example, it is not impossible to export conspiracy theories to a certain big country. Nixon was pulled down by domestic and foreign political opponents because of easing relations.

This kind of thing does my part, and it needs a person who has a good knowledge of both Chinese and Western, and combines the advantages of the two ideas to operate.

It's still too early, why don't we talk about the main battle tank? The bidding for the shield ship has already started. Pamela Mountbatten is currently following up the affairs of her shipyard, and is preparing to share in this round of the Royal Navy's big order. With a piece of cake, the problems at sea and in the air have been solved, and now the replacement of the main battle tank is short.

It can be said that during the Cold War, the tanks in the free world had their own characteristics. The United Kingdom just kept piling up the weight and made great strides towards the bright road of the Iron King.

But if you think that Britain has failed extremely in tanks, you must not take France, my traditional army power, into consideration. British tanks are the best, and France is the exact opposite.

The amx-13 light tank is the first generation tank developed by France after World War II. It is equipped with an automatic loading machine and becomes the first tank that can automatically load shells.It adopts a swinging turret, is equipped with a 75mm cannon, and is driven by a 250 horsepower gasoline engine. It has the characteristics of small size and good mobility.

The tank is light in weight and thin in armor. Compared with other star tanks at that time, the amx-13 tank has better mobility, but its protection and firepower cannot be compared with other tanks of the same period.

This tank weighs fifteen tons and is equipped with a 75mm main gun. If one day the impressive India feels that it can do it again and wants to make gestures on the roof of the world, you can consider this one.

In the late 50s, France, the Federal Republic of Germany and Italy originally planned to jointly develop a new generation of main station tanks, but later the three companies had inconsistent requirements, and eventually parted ways, each developing its own main battle tank.

So the amx-36 main battle tank with a total weight of 30 tons was released, which inherited the characteristics of the previous generation and carried forward, superior mobility, and better protection than nothing.

As for the Leopard 1 main battle tank currently used by the Federal Republic of Germany, it is only a little bit stronger than the equipment of the French Army. The hope of European ground armed forces really lies in the traditional maritime power of the United Kingdom. Sky, as for the pair of suffering brothers and sisters, Germany and France, let's not mention it.

This is the case in Europe. As for the overlord of the free world, the United States, it is still using Patton to modify it. Once upon a time, who would have thought that the British Empire would proudly puff up its chest in the field of tanks in the free world. Now Chopper Mu armor has been released, so it should be even more puffed up.

Maggins, who had a heavy responsibility, immediately agreed, saying that the Ministry of National Defense would immediately follow up and come up with a practical plan.

"I also hope that our shield ship construction can be faster, especially in terms of hull construction. As a traditional shipbuilding country, we should not compare efficiency with the United States, which has almost no civilian shipbuilding industry." Alan Wilson pondered for a moment, and then mentioned To the shipbuilding program.

After Makins left, the supreme authority remained motionless, with a thoughtful expression, thinking about the current equipment changes of the British army and navy.

The construction of the Air Force's Typhoon fighter jets has already begun, and the Navy's shield ships are also under construction. If the construction of the new generation of main battle tanks goes well, at least within 20 years, or even longer, the United Kingdom will be able to wait for the people militarily.

The prototype of the Typhoon fighter jet, the American Eagle, has been in service until the 21st century without any problems. The same is true for the Apache, the prototype of the Tiger helicopter gunship. The tank platform has also reached a bottleneck period after the third-generation main battle tank. The only thing that may need to be replaced is the Only the Royal Navy, I have to say, the other meaning of the century-old navy is indeed worthy of the name, and it really burns money.

In theory, warships can continue to be enlarged with existing technology, just like the US aircraft carrier is not the largest in theory, it is a sacrifice made to pass through the Panama Canal.

Aircraft carriers can even reach 20 tons. In fact, the United States has demonstrated a 15-ton heavy aircraft carrier.

It is precisely because of this possibility of continuous amplification that the navy is a service that requires continuous investment, and the shield ship is the first weapon system to be replaced among the British army, navy and air force in the future.

Because the richest woman is holding a shipyard meeting, Alan Wilson took the opportunity to come to Monroe to criticize the Watergate incident in the United States and expose the hypocritical political ecology of the United States.

"Are you criticizing the political ecology of the United States? If it weren't for the fact that you care so much about those poor people in Bangladesh, I would suspect that you are similar to those politicians." Monroe half-lyed beside the man, feeling the rubbing on his chest Warm palms, muttering unconvincingly.

"There are too many suffering people in this world. I always feel that my abilities are limited and I can do too little." I was going to talk about these things a few days ago. In Hepburn three days ago, he didn't speak like this at all. He talked about poetry and distant places...

The supreme authority has a clear conscience. As far as Bangladesh is concerned, if someone cares about it, it is God's manifestation. It doesn't matter whether the purpose is noble or despicable?

If it weren't for his short-term reconstruction needs, Bangladesh would have to delay for 20 years because of this war.

Now that Rahman has returned to Dhaka, he keeps saying that he wants to build socialism in the model of the Labor Party. It can be considered that his hard work for the benefit of Bangladeshi society has not been in vain.

"I know you have put a lot of effort into it." Monroe took the initiative to kiss the mouth of supreme authority, as a sweet treat for a man of the same status as her husband, "Are you satisfied now?"

"It seems to be a little bit worse." Alan Wilson felt it, and if he beat around the bush a little more, I could still stand up to my original intention.

Alan Wilson started his own management again, replacing the Prime Minister in managing the life of the country. His concerns include, but are not limited to, the Rhodesian Civil War, the guerrilla warfare in Portuguese Africa, the economic indicators of Malaya, the reconstruction of Bangladesh, the Commonwealth of Nations unity and so on.

By the way, eating melons during the Watergate incident, the current public opinion in the United States is stable, maybe it is just not yet time to ferment, Nixon has gained the trust of the Republican Party, and has not been affected by that isolated incident.

It can be seen from the public opinion in the past two months that the American people still maintain their trust in Nixon. Even Americans don't care, so other countries don't care.Even the Soviet Union felt that it was boring after being hyped for a while, and gradually reduced the popularity.

Alan Wilson, who benefited the society and ladies of the same status as his wife for a day, was listening to Wick's report about the confrontation at the Paris Coordinating Committee.

"It's extremely difficult to produce a little result. Organizations involving many member states are like this. They talk about their own things and are in a mess." Alan Wilson sighed, "Actually, many countries have secretly violated the regulations in the past few years. We don’t know? Which country is the Soviet Union’s machine tool imported cleanly?”

The Soviet Union, which is being mentioned, is also having a dialogue. At the KGB headquarters in Lubyanka Square, Alekseev took the intelligence assessment of the General Directorate of Internal Defense Intelligence and the report on the possible reduction in grain production this year. A big problem. I was still working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs before, and the purchase of food may still be able to play a role."

"A few years ago, we purchased grain through the UK." Andropov nodded in agreement. "Now there are three big grain merchants in the world, three in the United States, and one in Britain and France. It's not the most important thing." At this time, it is best not to alarm the Americans."

"I am determined to complete the task." Alekseyev nodded, and now he is going to go to the [-]th Department to get his identity back. The [-]th Department of the Foreign Intelligence Service specially creates identities for going abroad. He used it when he went to the UK for a second job. False identity, since he is going to the UK again, it is natural that the identity should be taken back.

This is another transaction involving hundreds of tons of gold. Of course, Alexeyev is unwilling to do this, but the problem of feeding more than 2 million Soviet people is here, and he can't do it if he doesn't want to.

Alan Wilson didn't expect that his eldest son would come back so soon, it seems that only half a year has passed.

The first thousand and 430 eight chapters I am your father

Alan Wilson happened to come out of No. [-] Downing Street and reported on the dialogue on appeals in Northern Ireland, the Civil War in Southern Rhodesia, the reconstruction of Bangladesh, and several issues discussed by the Coordinating Committee in Paris.

He has been coming to No. [-] Downing Street a lot recently, but it doesn't matter. He is not afraid that there will be too many things, but that there will be nothing. Once the Prime Minister is free, he is easy to think too much. Although the Prime Minister of the Labor Party wants to nationalize from time to time, it does not endanger Whitehall's status and interests, but if the idle time is long, there is always the possibility of accidents.

"Regarding the position of the United Kingdom at the European Community meeting, we still do not want any change in Finland's status. If Paris insists that the European Community needs an observer state, it is best to get Moscow's acquiescence, but even if Moscow acquiesces, It is best for Finland to stay at the stage of an observer state forever. As for Ireland, I hope that the member states of the European Community will continue to give the United Kingdom firm support. Under the realistic conditions of border disputes, Ireland is not suitable to become a member of the European Community.”

After calling Wick over and giving some instructions, Alan Wilson packed up his things and prepared to leave work. He had no idea of ​​having a drink today, but he was so haggard after being hurt by alcohol, he had to quit drinking.

"About the Glasgow case, it's more embarrassing for the justices now." Wick said in a low voice. He works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is actually not related to his work, but isn't this an opportunity to get closer to the supreme authority? He knew that this supreme authority was also a gossip.

"That case, right? The Glasgow Fall. Is the death penalty the controversial issue?" Alan Wilson laughed heartily. "The death penalty has not been abolished, but it has not been carried out for many years. In fact, it is just right that this case happened in Scotland. , if some judgments are on the English side, the resistance will be greater. In Scotland, there is no problem. We need a precedent, but it is best not to do it ourselves, showing that the death penalty still exists, so it is necessary to pass the obvious guidance. , tell the Scottish Supreme Court to be bold."

There was a case of falling from a building in Glasgow. In fact, the case was not complicated. Municipal personnel were maintaining a residential building, and the hoisting rope was cut by a pair of scissors.

This is the whole process. There are all witnesses and material evidence in broad daylight. There will be no controversy in other countries, but what about the free world?

Alan Wilson resolutely shelved various calls for the abolition of the death penalty, and did not allow such calls to go to parliament at all. For this reason, in the past few years, Radwich also found a murderer who was released from prison to kill again, and even bloodbathed Indians. In the community, this kind of cruelty is naturally to be criticized. Of course, Whitehall is magnanimous, even if it is another murder, it will not be sentenced to death.

But this time is different. The municipal staff are civil servants, a glorious collective of 50 people. This time, there is one less pillar. Even if it is not now, it may be in the future. How can this be?

As a group determined to benefit the society, is it facing this kind of treatment?Whitehall was simply ignored.

"Secretary-General, there is also an official letter from the Soviet embassy. The Soviet ambassador hopes to meet soon." Wick handed the document in his hand to the supreme authority, obviously this is his job.

"Well, I'll take a look when I get back. Brest will take care of this matter, don't let public opinion pay too much attention to this isolated incident, and then it will be a matter of course." Alan Wilson took the document, raised his wrist just to get off work, and then Greeted Wick and walked out of the Whitehall, Radwig was already waiting outside, and soon Gintama started to walk away.

Since it was a formal meeting, follow the normal procedure. However, when Alan Wilson read the official letter, he saw a familiar name, and it would not make him forget the identity of Hao Daer for more than half a year.

"It seems that it hasn't been long since he returned to China." Alan Wilson blinked, what could happen?Is it to express congratulations for my half-brother who officially joined the army and joined the Derling Army?

This should be unlikely, but Alan Wilson really can't guess what the purpose is. There have been a lot of miscellaneous things this year. Although it is a good thing to get the prime minister in trouble, it does not mean that Alan Wilson can be a bystander. His time is also 24 hours, no more than others.
