British civil servant

Vivien Leigh may not know that the money he gave to the porters in India was directly printed, and there are still 700 million rupees that are useless. In British India, he is quite a millionaire.
As for why he developed such a habit, isn't it that Pamela Mountbatten once said that he was handsome in giving gems?
The reminiscences came to an end first, Alan Wilson let Vivien Leigh into the bedroom, and he sat down on a red sofa, and said, "Vivienne, I am responsible for all your expenses from British India. Now the British Empire Of course, the situation is not satisfactory, but the empire will not allow someone to pay for the empire in vain."
Vivien Leigh listened to Alan Wilson's words, but her eyes were erratic, and she unconsciously looked at the red sofa under Alan Wilson's buttocks. She had filmed a movie in the United States.
It's just that at that time, Vivien Leigh had already become famous in the British catastrophe and the Oxford storm, and had not received such treatment.But I also know that all actors in the United States have passed the red sofa, almost without exception.
"Miss Vivienne?" Alan Wilson shook his hand in front of Vivien Leigh's eyes, brought back the attention of the international movie queen, and continued, "Actually, you just need to cooperate with our work, and I believe you have a certain understanding." Mentally prepared."
"I'm already mentally prepared." Vivien Leigh didn't know what Alan Wilson meant, did she have to sacrifice herself?In exchange for a chance at the British Indian Actors Guild.
When thinking about this, Alan Wilson nodded happily, "Great, it's easy to talk to patriotic people. Simply put, British India needs to use Vivienne's influence to appease the Indians." The will to resist. We are going to prepare an inspirational and educational documentary film. The conditions here may not be as good as those in the local or Hollywood, so I can only wrong you. I hope you can use a film to help us complete the work on protecting women’s rights in India There is nothing wrong with your actions, right?"
"No problem!" Only then did Vivien Leigh realize that her thinking was wrong. The imperial civil servants in front of her were still very upright. They didn't use their power to ask her to do something, but in fact, for the position of the British-Indian Actors Association, it was not impossible to make sacrifices. ...
"Then if you need anything, please contact me directly." Alan Wilson withdrew his wandering eyes from Vivien Leigh, expressing that he had nothing to say and would go back to the Governor's Mansion to work.
Alisa was still waiting downstairs, and when she saw her boss come down, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Assistant, when will Maharaja Ali Khan come to New Delhi?"
"Let me go to Hyderabad, or don't let our distinguished guests come to New Delhi." Alan Wilson changed his original intention and decided to give the world's richest man a face and go to Hyderabad by himself instead of the other way around.
You can't forget the memories of the difficult time just because you have been promoted now, or you will forget your roots.Although the main reason is to take Vivien Leigh along.
"To draw up Vivien Leigh's itinerary, the top ten cities in India must be included. I believe she will not object." Alan Wilson opened the car door to let Alisa enter first, and then got into the car himself, and quickly disappeared into the community .
British India is only superficially calm, unstable factors still exist, and religious conflicts still occur from time to time, but they do not appear in the newspapers. In the internal report of the Governor's Office, Alan Wilson can learn that there are no religious conflicts. The number of casualties has not decreased.
However, this is all within a controllable range. As long as there are no problems with the Indian army, the last year of British India's existence in history will not occur, and the entire subcontinent is on the verge of losing control.
The volcano will definitely erupt, the difference lies in when it will erupt. Alan Wilson's purpose is to hope that it will erupt later.There was also time to weaken Nehru as much as possible.
All actions of uniting the states, leaning toward the Muslim League, and abolishing military forces are all in the hope of achieving a balance of power as much as possible.But in fact, there is a limit to what Alan Wilson can do. After all, Nehru is not Changgong, and his power is too strong.
The Muslim League and the Territorial States still have limitations, and the Congress Party naturally represents the majority of Indians.
But even so, British India cannot be torn apart.
If the Hindu agglomeration area becomes a place full of small countries and the advantage of size disappears, then from Constantinople to Jakarta, it will become an amusement park for peace believers.
In the case of the same number of people, Alan Wilson said in a fair way that the average nation cannot withstand the expansion of the peace believers.This can be seen from the peace believers in Southeast Asia. You must know how far Southeast Asia is from the Middle East where the peace religion originated.
The navigators in the agricultural age also came from the Middle East. Before Europe controlled the sea, the sea was in the hands of the Arabs.
Alan Wilson even believes that if the industrial age has not come, any civilization will suffer when facing the Peace Church, not to mention where it is, it will be the same everywhere.
The fact is that the Arabs were the fastest-expanding nation in the agricultural era, occupying more land than many older civilizations, but in modern times they were completely split up by Europe, which came from behind, and there is no longer a Middle Eastern power.
If you really want to tear your face apart and tear British India apart, first of all, the difficulty is very high, so high that it is almost impossible.Even if a miracle happens, it will only make the Peace Sect grow bigger.
This is very unfavorable for Europe, which completely disintegrated Ottoman, the suzerain of peace, before and after World War I.
The general pattern of British India cannot be changed, but he believes that some cutting of corners and corners can already be tried.
"Transfer the management of the Andaman Islands to British Burma?" Sir Barron took a breath, looked at Alan Wilson in disbelief and said, "Alan, you have to know that the biggest job now is to maintain the British Burma. The apparent stability of India."
"Sir Barron, of course I understand this. But the Andaman Islands happen to block the Strait of Malacca. Once India becomes independent, let alone other things, India's size is sufficient. Such a large population is not well developed. There is a threat." Allen Wilson said without changing his original intention, "This is all for the order and cornerstone of the empire."
Upon hearing the order and cornerstone of the empire, Sir Barron fell into consideration, because this cornerstone and order, of course, refers to the fate of the civil servants, who can stand up to the elected ministers without colonial management.
"But the risk is still too great. You have to give me a plan that Britain has no responsibilities on the surface." Sir Baron shook his head with difficulty. "Otherwise, at least in the short term, I will not agree to it."
"Yes." Alan Wilson had been prepared for a long time, and said directly, "I heard that the Andaman Islands are a place where criminals were exiled. Now the empire has 70 Japanese surrendered soldiers. The supplies on the islands are tight. We sent tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers. When even eating is a problem, ethnic conflicts may break out. Then it has nothing to do with us.”
"Of course, this requires the cooperation of the Royal Navy's blockade to blockade the islands in the name of keeping Japanese soldiers from endangering safety. When the above matters are resolved, the Royal Navy will logically kill the murderer, and then take advantage of the referendum to merge the Andaman Islands into Myanmar. Myanmar The country is weak, and when it became independent, it was merged into British Malaya, so it is expected that the Burmese would not dare to oppose it."
"Go and prepare a detailed plan." Sir Barron said noncommittally, "Let me remind you that you will be responsible for failure, so think carefully about it."
Chapter 2 and Four
"For the long-term existence of the order and cornerstone of the empire, Allen is willing to make efforts." Allen Wilson looked serious, and he was ready to take the risk of responsibility.
"If you say you are very bold, it is a derogatory term when you use it to evaluate politicians, but you are one of us, and if you can have this kind of awareness, then it is not a derogatory term when used on you." Sir Barron looked at Allen seriously Wilson sighed, "Well, it's an overseas island after all, as long as you dare to be responsible, I can pretend you didn't see it."
In fact, the Andaman Islands are closer to British Burma, and some residents on the islands also have ethnic groups that look like yellow races.
In fact, this archipelago can be given to Myanmar or India, but apparently the British Empire did not pay much attention to this issue during its hasty retreat.
But Alan Wilson is different. Before he was kicked back to Europe by Nehru, he was already thinking about this archipelago.
As for the situation in the subcontinent, he can only say that he is doing his best to obey the destiny. Whether the country can withstand Nehru and how long it can withstand, anyway, it will not lose if it lasts longer than the historical peak.
But this kind of overseas islands needs to be separated with a serious attitude.He preferred the Andaman Islands to become a gateway to British Malaya rather than fall into Indian hands.
The first is to change the local ethnic structure. Fortunately, the population of the archipelago is not large, and this can be easily done.
Alan Wilson sent a telegram to Burgess in British Burmese, demanding that British Burmese, the Burmese who had cooperated with the Japanese during the war, be exiled to the Andaman Islands.
The Andaman Islands in British India is equivalent to the role of Australia in the British mainland. It is a place where criminals are exiled. However, compared with Australia, which has a vast area and abundant resources, the Andaman Islands have much worse basic conditions.
There are also indigenous peoples who have been isolated from the outside world for thousands of years. If outsiders enter the archipelago without being shot by the natives, then the natives will die, and they will end up with the Indians. The natives who have not resisted foreign viruses themselves will see outsiders When it is time, it is equivalent to seeing virus petri dishes one by one.
Since it is a place of exile, anyone can be exiled, and it is logical to exile some Burmese traitors.
Then some Japanese soldiers who had caused huge damage during the war were picked out from British Malaya and placed on the island. The rest was to search for all the food on the island and instigate different ethnic groups to kill each other.
Then start with the low-difficulty exile first, and lay a good foundation first.In Rangoon, Burgess, now Commissioner to British Burma, received a telegram from New Delhi asking about the treatment of pro-Japanese Burmese during the war.
And it means that the Governor's Office of British India means to exile these pro-Japanese elements to the Andaman Islands.
The same telegram, almost verbatim, was also sent to British Malaya.First of all, if they are exiled, once Japanese soldiers and Japanese traitors make trouble, Britain can take the name of righteousness and suppress them, and no one will speak for the remnants of these Axis powers.
Then during the process of suppression, people who disobeyed the British rule were cleaned up in the Andaman Islands, and the Andaman Islands fell into the hands of the British. The ethnic groups connected with India disappeared, and India had no reason to insist on the rule of the Andaman Islands. .
In the final analysis, it is still the population of the Andaman Islands, Indians account for the majority, and the British have no basis for rule, so it is difficult to handle. The solution to this problem is either that the remaining people have nothing to do with India, or simply put the Andaman Islands The archipelago became an uninhabited island.
Out of Alan Wilson's own compassion, he chose the former, at least some people may survive.
The telegram to the Bangkok embassy arrived the next day, mainly because Alan Wilson had just forgotten that Thailand also needed to be liquidated, but it was not too late, and he finally remembered.
Thailand has ceded the Kra Isthmus to the United Kingdom. Now that it has changed its past, as the winner, the British Empire must also give Thailand a legal and reasonable reason to allow the Thai royal family and army to complete internal integration.
In Europe, Alan Wilson, as a British gentleman, prevented the liquidation of German traitors.In Asia he struck out, inciting the liquidation of Japanese traitors, and gave a solution, exile in the Andaman Islands.
Although the time is less than half a year late, justice will be late but will not be absent, and it will strike hard in the third world.
In Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman Islands, the commander on the island also received a telegram from New Delhi. Although he didn't quite understand why New Delhi was interested in an archipelago that was isolated overseas and asked for detailed data, he immediately responded.
Data such as the situation on the island and the food self-sufficiency rate, especially the situation of the prison on the island, were sent to New Delhi by telegram.
The telegram sent back from British Malaya is very interesting, indicating that the soldiers who surrendered to Japan, after half a year of propaganda and education, have deeply realized the crimes including the death march in Bataan and plundering white women in Southeast Asia as prostitutes .
"This is easy to handle. After these Japanese prisoners of war are sent to the island, they will say that the British will take revenge instead of the Europeans and force the Japanese soldiers to riot." Alan Wilson took a telegram from British Malaya, and a plan has gradually emerged. .
Of course, this should take into account the food production of the Andaman Islands, as well as the planting season and other conditions. It is best to detonate this bomb during the season of food shortage.
Don't take it for granted that all food crops are the same in the tropics, and the tropics are also divided into off-season and peak season for agricultural production.
Also take into account the peak season and off-season of the fishing industry. In short, it is not as easy as imagined to succeed in anything.
Alan Wilson, who was collecting telegrams from all over the world, was very busy, while Alisa served a cup of coffee and said, "Assistant Alan, you must know how to combine work and rest, and take a break when appropriate."
"Thank you! Alisa." Alan Wilson thanked, took a sip of coffee and said, "But then again, I do feel that I am busier than the governor, but I don't have the right to be the governor."
"Maybe one day, you can also be the governor of a certain place." Alisa smiled and comforted softly.
"Oh, will it? Then I will borrow your auspicious words." Alan Wilson smiled happily, pointed to the chair in front of him to let the female assistant sit down and asked, "Does Alyssa have any dreams? For example, what will you do in the future?" occupation, return to the native land or continue to work in the colonies?"
"I haven't thought too much about it yet." Alisa flicked her hair, and said in a charming tone, "Maybe it's time to fall in love. I don't know which man will be cheaper in the future."
"That man must be a lucky one." Alan Wilson nodded seriously, "By the way, is our Miss Vivian still used to living here?"
"Fortunately, I'm watching, and there will be no harassment." Alyssa's tone was pointed, indicating that she had completed the task very well, helping her boss to block some opponents who were overwhelmed.
The two were chatting one after another, and Alisa suddenly seemed to remember something, and said, "Harry Singer contacted the local commissioner by telegram, hoping to talk to the Governor's Office. And the attitude is very urgent."
"He, his life is really not easy." Alan Wilson shook his head slightly when he heard the name of Harry Singh, "A Hindu is a maharaja monarch with a majority of peaceful believers, and his position is too sensitive. It’s not a very good day.”
Out of the mentality of wanting to collect money, Alan Wilson felt a pity. He really wanted to help Hari Singh for the sake of gold, but Kashmir was too sensitive.There are not many places where it can be operated!
After Britain withdrew from the subcontinent, Hari Singh, although a Hindu, hoped to maintain Kashmir's independent status.After the British withdrawal, an army of pro-Pakistan tribes and Pakistani soldiers invaded Kashmir from Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province.
Maharaja Hari Singh was forced to flee to India for help.However, the Indian government asked Harry Singh to agree to the annexation of Kashmir to India before sending troops to aid.In desperation, Singh signed a treaty with India, declaring that the entire Kashmir region was incorporated into the Indian Dominion.
In fact, there is a way. For example, Harry Singer announced that he would follow the will of the people under his rule and declare his conversion to the Peace Sect.
But this will also be invaded by India. Will Nehru allow his hometown to become the territory of an enemy country?It wouldn't be the same for Alan Wilson, let alone Nehru.
"If he has time, let him come. After all, he is a powerful maharaja, and I respect these maharajas very much." Alan Wilson sighed, "Block the news, don't let Ni Heru knew that it was Nehru's hometown."
"I know how to do it." Alisa nodded, reaching for the empty coffee cup.
The days are still passing day by day, which is nothing to Alan Wilson, but to Vivien Leigh, who is gradually losing her freshness, the days are starting to become boring.
Honor and status can only solve part of the problem. Some problems, such as physical problems, cannot be filled by honor.
Vivien Leigh felt a little regretful at this time, she shouldn't insist on coming here because of her husband's objection, at least she should have a good discussion with her husband, and let him take care of the overall situation and come with her.
If her husband came with her, she might not feel so uncomfortable now that she is alone in the vacant room. After all, it is impossible for a woman in her 30s to endure loneliness like a virgin girl.
The liquidation of Japanese traitors throughout British Burma, British Malaya, and Thailand has begun, but Vivien Leigh is becoming more and more irritable every day. Finally, Alyssa brings a message asking if she is willing to go around in British India.
Chapter 2 Everything is under control
"Okay, although New Delhi is good, it's a bit boring after all. Miss Alyssa, can I ask how things are going with the British Indian Film Actors Association." Vivien Leigh was overjoyed at first when she heard the news that she could finally leave New Delhi. Immediately expressed the pursuit of progress.
Alisa's eyes flashed with helplessness and said, "Miss Vivienne, we have to follow the procedures. I hope you can understand that the Governor's Office is studying the matter of the British Indian Film Actors Association. Assistant Allen will follow up on this matter. Yes."
"I thought it would be ready right away." Vivien Leigh was inevitably disappointed and dissatisfied with the bureaucratic procrastination.
"The more you invest, the more you save money, the more you waste, the more frugal you are, and the more you delay, the more efficient you are. This is the real government." Alyssa gave Vivien Leigh a meaningful look and said, "Miss Vivienne, please wait slowly. Bar."
In the Governor's Palace of India, Alan Wilson mentioned the Kashmir Maharaja Hari Singh in Sir Barron's place, and hoped to talk to the Governor's Palace. It belongs to India's ambition, and many maharajas and maharajas are very worried about it, and Hari Singh's performance can prove this."
"I want to help them too, but Nehru's hometown is Kashmir." Sir Baron said in a dilemma, "You know about this, right?"
Seeing Alan Wilson nodding, Sir Barron said again, "Furthermore, Kashmir itself is very complicated. The Peace Cult occupies a dominant position and is easily supported by the nearby Peace Cultists. It is to avoid investment in military expenditure. We cannot start another war just after participating in the world war. There is no doubt that even if the British Empire is not good at the army, it is also necessary to win a few battles in British India Easy, I never doubted that."
"The thing I doubt is where the military expenditure will come from. The mainland still needs the support of British India, let alone the military expenditure to go to war? Therefore, we must not anger the National Congress, even if I am willing to give moral support to the major states. , except to help."
In addition to helping, Alan Wilson pondered for a while and said, "I want to secretly meet with the princes of the various states in Hyderabad to discuss the status of the state in the future. This should be possible. If possible , I would like to suggest that the Maharajas, including Ali Khan and Salaman Khan, transfer part of their wealth to London."
Sir Baron was noncommittal at first, but when he heard that he hoped that the wealth of these maharajas would be transferred to London, he could not utter any doubts. He could only say, "Be careful, don't let Nehru know."
"So I'm going to let Ms. Vivien Leigh go with me, so that public opinion will pay attention to her, and no one will pay attention to what I do." Alan Wilson said with a sanctimonial face, "Ms. Vivien Leigh is full of patriotism, and she should not refused."
"Her movie fans in China may be furious if they know that they are treated as tool people in British India." Sir Barron smiled and said, "Actually, there are still many things to do. Representatives of the Rana family are coming to New Delhi. .”
"The Kingdom of Nepal? It is estimated that the purpose is also to inquire about the future of the subcontinent." Alan Wilson was a little surprised, and smiled bitterly. "It seems that all the forces in the entire subcontinent are now restless."
In [-], the Rana family won the military and political power in Nepal with the support of the British and began the rule of hereditary prime ministers. The rulers of any hereditary system only care about two things, increasing taxes and maintaining social order.
The former can enrich their own pockets, and the latter is to consolidate their rule.
After that, the role of the Kingdom of Nepal was similar to the relationship between Hyderabad and the British Empire. It offered to recommend itself to the British East India Company, and was willing to make sacrifices to help the British fight against the Sikhs; it sent troops to help the British suppress the Indian people against the British Empire. uprising.
During the First World War, the Rana family sent Nepalese troops to Europe to fight for the British, and also sent 2000 people to help the British fight against the Afghan king Amanullah.
This is by no means a running dog of imperialism. If the Chinese were treated like this, the Chinese would definitely say that the relationship between China and Nepal has a long history and has always maintained a friendly relationship.To say that the Kingdom of Nepal is a lackey is simply because the lackey does not belong to him.
What Sir Barron wanted to talk to the representatives of the Kingdom of Nepal also included the treatment of Nepalese soldiers. The Nepalese soldiers left a deep impression on the British during the war. There are Nepalese troops in the British army.
Compared with the Indian army, which is too large to support the scale, and the United Kingdom, which wants to get help in times of emergency, naturally thought of this very cost-effective option.
Even in the Falklands War, the British Gurkha Battalion also participated in the war.Sir Barron's representatives in New Delhi and the Rana family also played a role in covering Alan Wilson's trip to Hyderabad.
Alan Wilson took Vivien Leigh, who wanted to experience the style of South India, on the road. At the same time, representatives of fifteen powerful states, including Kashmir, also set off for Hyderabad under the notice of the local commissioner. The seat of India's most powerful state.
"South Indians are not the same as North Indians. Apart from the same religion, their appearance and language are different. The appearance of South Indians is closer to that of Africans." On the train, Alisa introduced the basic situation of South India to Vivien Leigh, " There are two places in the drama of British India’s land states, one is the place in the northwest except the Ganges River Basin, and the other is the Deccan Plateau. There are many land states in the northwest, but there are not many powerful land states. Hyderabad is The most powerful state in British India, the Maharaja has a good relationship with us."
"I'm still the Commissioner of Hyderabad!" Allen Wilson raised his head and interjected, then lowered his head and continued to read the materials, "I really miss Maharaja Ali Khan. When I returned to Europe, he helped I'm busy. A man should be grateful, what did Andy say in the telegram?"
"Andy said that Maharaja Ali Khan has long been looking forward to the day when he will meet you again. A group of German instructors came to Hyderabad recently, which is very impressive." Alice replied quickly, "Majesty knows this It's all from you."
"The Germans do have the experience of contacting peace believers." The rest of Alan Wilson did not say out of political incorrectness, hoping that Maharaja Ali Khan's private army would have the combat effectiveness of even a holy knife master.
When Alan Wilson was still walking the line, the Governor's Mansion in New Delhi, the Nepalese envoy had already met Sir Barron, "Dear Sir Barron, the current development is disturbing. The Prime Minister has been safeguarding the interests of the British Empire for a hundred years. But now I have to worry about the current situation."
"The British Empire has always been able to appreciate the goodwill of the prime minister." After Sir Barron nodded, he directly began a long speech, "Actually, the prime minister may have misunderstood something. So far, the news released by the National Congress Party can only represent the The party itself, not even the Muslim League, can’t represent the Governor-General of British India?”
"It may be a little embarrassing for the prime minister to be so alarmed by the remarks of a civil party."
"In fact, the British Empire has never said that it would leave British India. Even if it wanted to leave, it did not say that it would leave completely. And even if it left, who said it couldn't make a comeback? If British India fell into chaos, Britain has the responsibility to come back .”
