British civil servant

"Yes, you know Americans best." Grace agreed with this point of view, "My daughter is married to Albert, so tell me the truth about what you think about Yugoslavia."

"There are a lot of ideas, but I just haven't thought about it. In general, the civil war is a matter of not fighting or fighting early."

Alan Wilson changed the subject when he said this, "If the Yugoslavs do not dislike the country of the monarchy, although His Majesty the King has been there for more than ten years, but Prince Alexander is still living in the UK, we don't know what the final result will be. Use it now."

Without further ado, Grace never lived under the Yugoslav system. Yugoslavia is not a planned economy, but a market economy. Alan Wilson himself has never been to Yugoslavia, but he can tell Grace some of the characteristics of places where state-owned enterprises gather. Grace has an awareness of Yugoslavia.

However, the memory of the supreme authority is relatively long, because the Great Northern Wilderness has basically completed de-industrialization in the 20s, and the entire place relies on agriculture for survival.

So these are all his childhood memories, and there is no guarantee that all of them can be used in Yugoslavia, but they are still useful.

For Yugoslavia, Alan Wilson really has a lot of ideas, such as deporting the peace believers in the territory to Turkey, or sacrificing Albania and deporting to Albania.He wants Prince Alexander to return to the country and return to the monarchy, but this may be choking.

In short, everything must be centered on preventing the Germans from taking advantage. After all, once the country is broken, Germany's geographical advantage is too great. Now the advantage of the United Kingdom is that it has a group of Yugoslavs in its hands.Even if it becomes an Austro-Hungarian country, at least it will not fall to Germany.

Cole, who is still trying to get closer to the GDR, will never know that the biggest enemy since he entered politics is not in the hostile camp, but in the free world.

Grace directly took away the real passport made by Whitehall, and the patriotic Nanqiao operation began. Alan Wilson asked the newcomer to the intelligence department, Rose, the son of Her Royal Highness, to take charge of it personally.

In the first stage, it is necessary to find out the export tendency of enterprises in the various republics of Yugoslavia. If there is an idea of ​​reform, of course we must provide assistance. However, things have priorities. From a geographical point of view, efforts must be made in Croatia and Slovenia, and local governments will support the central government. , By the way cut off the penetration of German capital.

If it wasn't all cut off, it would be too obvious. The property of the Dragoon sisters, as well as the Austrian Red Bull Group owned by the eldest son Heydrich, are not within the scope of cutting off.

As for the return center of overseas patriotic southerners this time, Alan Wilson has already pointed out to Grace, Sarajevo.

It’s not that the supreme authority rubs off on the popularity of this city, but because Sarajevo is the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The reason why Serbia did not make concessions in the Bosnia-Herzegovina war and fought so fiercely is because in Yugoslavia, the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina is a mixed place. Half of the land is inhabited by Serbs. Such an area with a complex environment but located in the center of several major ethnic groups should be the first destination of the Home Returning Mission.

Kaman is less than 30 years old and looks like a talented person. He was born in Rhodesia after the war. As for his father, Grace just returned to Rhodesia. After knowing this, he became interested He must return to Yugoslavia instead of his father, and said that he would definitely visit his hometown.

"Whatever you look at, it doesn't matter if you're still here or not." Grace thought about this for a while, and then nodded, "It's good to go back, because something really happened in Yugoslavia, and there might be problems on our side."

Grace still believes in the supreme authority. If there is a civil war in Yugoslavia, distrust may also increase in Rhodesia. The key is that Rhodesia is not covered by people like them who have saved their lives. There is Ian in the southwest. British immigrants headed by Smith, Elizabethville, which was originally the Lubumbashi area, and French-speaking Belgians, French immigrants.

The situation in Rhodesia and Yugoslavia cannot be said to be exactly the same, and it can be said that they are not bad. In Yugoslavia, Serbia's strength barely suppressed the Croats and Slovenes.

As for Rhodesia, Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia, who escaped by chance, are a little more than the combined population of British and French immigrants. When Alan Wilson introduced the general situation of Yugoslavia, what he actually thought was The distribution of forces in Rhodesia.

Of course, the total population of Rhodesia is less than 200 million, and the area of ​​100 million square kilometers will not cause conflicts. Even if it is stable for a few decades in the future, it will really become a family.

But Grace knows that it is far from being a family now, and external factors cannot affect the stability of Rhodesia.

Kaman came to Europe with Albert. Albert returned to Europe this time because he received a new appointment as the commander of the Seventh Armored Division, so he brought his brother-in-law to London together, and the process went smoothly. The appointment of the future star of the military who shined in the Falkland Islands War took a crucial step and went to the De Laine Army to inherit Montgomery's mantle.

Alan Wilson, who feels that the United Kingdom may not be able to handle Yugoslavia, is operating in the dark with Anna again. A trusted German company like the Dragoon Sisters can act together with the United Kingdom.Get the job done first, and then split the bill.

"Why is it only [-]%?" Anna muttered dissatisfiedly, "Isn't it too much? If you give less, you can help. Pamela can just sit back and enjoy it."

"Three achievements are not bad, don't you know that Germany is a defeated country?" Alan Wilson laughed, "Isn't it necessary for me to take major steps, I borrow the power of the United Kingdom to finish everything, and then give all the profits to Germany? What do other people think?"

Anna accepted this explanation, and the two promised verbally that she would assist when the British side needed help.Turn on the TV, the exchange rate of yen to dollar breaks through 150 to one.

Alan Wilson looked at this number and fell into thinking, should he save some funds to protect his capital?One hundred and fifty is a key point. It is not so fast to rush to 120. As for 90 yen to one dollar, that is the exchange rate in Japan in the [-]s.

The first thousand and 660 chapters and four Sudan compromises

Obviously, it takes money to infiltrate the Iron Curtain. It's not that Alan Wilson is particularly patriotic, so he must bear the money that should be taken by the country.

But some money, such as funding for Alekseev, obviously cannot be given by the state.

Imagine if in the future, Hao Daer used the money he got from the Democratic Foundation and the Liberty Club to buy a capable and reliable force, and he had to be a car at a critical moment.

Then the UK will definitely find out that the money used to save the Soviet Union was provided by the UK, and Alan Wilson will not be able to wash it off even if he jumped into the Atlantic Ocean.

Therefore, some money must be taken by oneself. Seeing that the appreciation of the yen has reached a critical point, there is no potential for profit from the exchange rate alone.Alan Wilson then contacted Arnold and set aside a part of the funds invested in Japan. As for the amount of this part, capital preservation, that is, the number guaranteed not to accompany, can stay in Japan.

For this part of the funds, Alan Wilson will keep his own share, and then return all the principal to the ladies of the same status as his wife. As for the money temporarily left in Arnold's hands, it is not his, the supreme authority himself That part of the house can go to the future stars of Whitehall, but what belongs to other ladies is also used for dividends.

"Keep it secret from Pamela." Alan Wilson, who was holding the microphone, didn't forget to tell Arnold when he was talking with Arnold. You must know that Pamela Mountbatten has also invested heavily in Japan.

"Did father conclude that the appreciation of the yen has reached its peak?" Arnold asked, "It is still for safety reasons, so the funds in Japan have to be withdrawn."

"Of course it's the latter, otherwise you won't just be asked to withdraw the principal." Alan Wilson replied decisively, "I always want to give other people a reason to feel at ease, right?"

Could it be that Alan Wilson waited until the 90s and watched the yen rush from [-] to [-]?Theoretically, it can indeed be doubled, but after so many years, it is uncertain whether it will be a loss or a profit when inflation is taken into account. Arnold immediately agreed, "I will be careful not to alarm all parties. The funds were withdrawn."

Putting down the microphone, Alan Wilson stood with his hands behind his back. In fact, although the national power of the United Kingdom is far stronger than in history, how about swallowing the dividends of the Cold War?Still a bit choking.

I don't know if we can rely on the help of France to achieve this?Whether Mitterrand can be trusted, that is the question.

The infiltration inside the Iron Curtain can come secretly. As for the Horn of Africa, Allen Wilson is not welcome. He still needs the help of Rhodesia. This help is not the same as the help of the Balkans, but Rhodesia is needed. The armed forces can, to a certain extent, contribute to the chaos in the Horn of Africa.

Now there is another question, what about South Africa?You know, it is now [-], the year is not important, but South Africa's nuclear weapons research has been going on for some time.

If this white regime that promotes apartheid is allowed to master nuclear weapons, on the one hand, when South Africa collapses, the white South African government may use them.

Another extremely small possibility, what if the South African white regime is maintained by nuclear weapons?Become a powerful faction, the African overlord?

This is obviously unacceptable, and although Mrs. Thatcher firmly supported South Africa's move regardless of the Commonwealth's ideas, she was stopped by Alan Wilson, but this issue cannot be delayed.

He had to talk to Mrs. Thatcher. He went to No. [-] Downing Street. Mr. Thatcher was also there. He nodded to Alan Wilson and left, leaving room for the cabinet secretary and the prime minister.

"Mr. Thatcher is really a good man." Alan Wilson praised him, and he swore it was absolutely a simple compliment.

But I didn't know that Mrs. Thatcher's face changed, and she protested softly, "My husband and I have a very stable relationship, don't mess around."

I just said it casually!Alan Wilson yelled for being wronged, why is even praise a crime now? "Have you never talked to Reagan about the research on South Africa's nuclear weapons? What does Washington think? Good thing."

"They're white people." Mrs Thatcher said something she would never dare to say in public, but she clearly thought so. "There is still gold we need."

"Is the [-] tons of gold in the national treasury not enough? As for the white people, the skin color of Eastern Europeans is lighter than that of England. This has been studied. If this is a friendly reason, we should form an alliance with the Soviet Union to end the Cold War."

Alan Wilson thought that you seemed to be teasing me, but he emphasized, "I only know that without the resistance of the Boers at the beginning, Britain would not have consumed a huge amount of national power before World War I. I wish that the Boers would be wiped out."

It is so straightforward to lightly forgive the supreme authority. Since Mrs. Thatcher took a white regime, Alan Wilson did not hide it. He wished that the Boers would be ethnically cleansed by blacks.

"You are really an internationalist." Mrs. Thatcher said sarcastically, seeming to imply Alan Wilson's undiscriminatory perception of Africa.

"Don't say that, Rhodesia would have been independent long ago without me. I have different attitudes towards obedient places and disobedient places."

Alan Wilson narrowed his eyes and said, "I know you have always been interested in petty profits. You only care about whether you can make a profit during your tenure, and you don't care about the entire black African perception of Britain, but the Queen is the head of the Commonwealth, and Her Majesty does care." .So I can't allow you to mess around with this matter."

This kind of tone really angered Mrs. Thatcher. The Iron Lady really wanted to take the case, but she restrained herself when she heard the next words, and heard Alan Wilson continue, "Now it is obvious that the Soviet Union is in a strategic contraction. Among them, I believe that even the United States is unwilling to have another country with nuclear weapons in the world, especially South Africa is obviously stronger than neighboring countries, and it is likely to use its geographical advantages to break away from control and become a detached country in Africa."

"This is not allowed. I believe that once the issue of nuclear weapons is communicated with the United States, the United States will take measures to kill it after knowing the progress of the research. I have sufficient confidence in this."

South Africa's nuclear weapons research has its own background. In the 70s, South Africa embarked on the road of developing nuclear weapons.In [-], South African Minister of Mines De Witt ordered the study of "peaceful nuclear explosion". In [-], the South African government approved the "peaceful nuclear explosion plan" and decided to develop a limited deterrent force.Thus began the simultaneous development of nuclear weapons and the construction of nuclear test sites.

The "Peaceful Nuclear Explosive Device" was originally developed by the Atomic Energy Corporation. Due to the slow progress, it was replaced by the Ordnance Corporation in [-]. The company specially set up a comprehensive facility for the development of nuclear weapons in Adeweila.In [-] Adevila developed a new nuclear explosive device.

At the same time, the United States and the Soviet Union discovered that a "double flash" signal unique to nuclear explosions appeared over Prince Edward Island, which belongs to South Africa, [-] kilometers southeast of South Africa.South Africa and Israel cooperated in that nuclear test. According to the "double flash" signal, the power of the nuclear explosion is equivalent to the TNT equivalent of Hiroshima's power.

"Prime Minister, do you dare to take the initiative to talk to President Reagan, what do you think of South Africa's possession of nuclear weapons?"

Alan Wilson said again and again, "Don't you like to talk about the special relationship between Britain and the United States? See what the other side of the special relationship thinks, will it protect the white country you call it? But before communicating, let me remind you that Reagan just He pardoned 300 million illegal immigrants, he is not even willing to guarantee the status of English, and he may not care about the white country you call."

Alan Wilson began to shirk, such a major issue should obviously be communicated by the Prime Minister himself, but he can predict what the result will be.

The only exception to the United States is Israel. Even Britain's nuclear weapons are independently researched after falling out with the United States. The United States is still unwilling to share with the United Kingdom, let alone a South Africa with an unstable foundation.

Just as Mrs. Thatcher was thinking about whether to talk to Reagan about the attitude of the United States and South Africa, good news came from North Africa. The Khartoum government announced that it would change the name of the Democratic Republic of Sudan to the Republic of Sudan and remove democracy from the country. name, while the government in Khartoum has promised multi-party reforms.

"With a little effort from our UK, this country will fall." Alan Wilson laughed vigorously at the Whitehall meeting.

He estimated that the Khartoum government should also ask the Soviet Union for help, but it was rejected, and Sudan was not as strong as the Mengistu regime.

In addition, as a country with Arab as the main ethnic group, seeing that the entire Arab world is now hostile to itself, Egypt in the north is close at hand as an Arab military power, South Sudan is also eyeing it, and Ethiopia, which has a good relationship, is also in trouble now. If you want to go, you will surrender and lose half.

There is no doubt that this is a huge victory for Britain. The African strategy has just been proposed, and immediately a country with an area of ​​nearly 200 million square kilometers cannot withstand the pressure and chooses to say goodbye to the Soviet system.If this is not a victory, what is a victory.

When Mrs. Thatcher got the news, her mind was very complicated. When talking about the importance of South Africa, Alan Wilson said that the influence of the Soviet Union in Africa was declining, and South Africa was useless.

Now there is news that Sudan will change its name and change the country system.Obviously, in this disagreement, Alan Wilson was the one who had the upper hand.

It must be Britain's victory. After all, Britain led the wave of severing diplomatic relations with Sudan, but between the two, it was obviously not Mrs. Thatcher who won. The Horn of Africa strategy was proposed by the cabinet secretary-general.

The first thousand and 660 chapters and five beware of English and French

Of course, it is the credit of Alan Wilson. This is not the time to be humble. He accepted the praise of the Paleontological Association with a microphone, and expressed his humility in another field. "The research results of the Carnian flood event are everyone, not me alone. Thanks to people, in fact, I just expressed support for the relevant research on behalf of the government, and provided related funds, and did nothing else, and the signature put me first, that's it?"

"Sir, everyone in the Paleontological Association knows that you are the giant in this field." Ike immediately expressed his opinion, not flattering the secretary general of the cabinet, but pure respect for experts in the industry, "Without your strong support and reasonable extrapolated hypotheses would not have had such results."

"You can do whatever you want." Excessive modesty is hypocrisy, and Alan Wilson put down the phone directly, because the news of Sudan's resignation came, and he was still in a pretty good mood today.

The British public opinion should be mobilized, bragging, and unabashedly attributing the change of the Sudanese system to the external pressure led by the British. Of course, the important role of the Kingdom of Egypt and the Kingdom of Yinlak must not be forgotten. The UK is not as overwhelming as the US and the Soviet Union. Sexual power must respect the role of other nations.

After returning home, Allen Wilson shared the good news with his wife, and Pamela Mountbatten asked, "If this is the case, will the financial expenditure be expanded again? After all, the change in Sudan requires assistance first."

"That's a matter of the Arab world." Alan Wilson made two inferences, "Britain is not the Soviet Union. Although Sudan was once a traditional British colony, the value of Sudan is not high to be honest. The pro-Soviet countries in the Horn of Africa , In fact, there is no benefit, the strategic position is useful to the world hegemony, but Britain is no longer the world hegemony."

If the United States is willing, the United Kingdom does not mind the United States making greater investment, but what if the United Kingdom itself?

Forget it, if Africa is really good, it won't be the last continent to be divided.This is not to say that Africa has no value, and the value of Africa is still great, but not every place is worth fighting for.

In terms of natural conditions, let alone North Africa, the Sahara Desert is such a large area that everyone can understand it.

If it is divided into regions, the whole of Africa can be summed up as North Africa is not as good as South Africa, West Africa is not as good as East Africa, and the natural conditions of eastern and southern Africa are still of some value.

The natural conditions in the northeast corner of Africa are better than Egypt, where the whole country relies on the canal for income and its life safety is based on the Nile River.But it is not enough to hold on tight and not let go.

Now that the United Kingdom has withdrawn from these places, it will be able to manage the south of Kenya with peace of mind in the future. When encountering any projects that require labor and effort, it will be fine to share the bill with a certain big country.

"But you said that the blacks in southern Africa are not as good as the Arabs." Pamela Mountbatten mentioned what her husband once said, the ethnic depression in the world.

"Most people can't do it, but it doesn't mean that their leadership is stupid. East Africa still has some foundations, and West Africa is finished. The triangular trade has already destroyed the social structure, and it also encountered a ruler like France." Alan Wilson. I am very pessimistic about French Africa. Most of the bizarre coup news in Africa comes from French Africa.

The bad reputation of African black countries has an indelible relationship with the role of the French in it, and the rule of the French is not particularly strong.

If there is a country that doesn't care about the French military and is determined to infiltrate French Africa, the French can't help it. Later generations of Russian mercenaries beat the French in Mali, and the special military operations began to relieve the French to some extent The pressure on African domination is not all bad.

"You said that you want to eradicate the pro-Soviet forces in Africa. I still don't believe it. It's not that easy." Pamela Mountbatten sighed, "It seems that we can be more optimistic, can't we?"

"The ruling foundations of countries are different, and we should not be too optimistic. For example, Lumumba of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has ruled Congo for almost 30 years. It is not so simple. He is not old enough to even manage the country." Alan Wilson frowned and answered.

Generally, people in African countries don't care about it, and even people in the key channels of a certain big country don't know much information, let alone data.But even if he doesn't know the data, Alan Wilson feels that Lumumba's rule is no worse than Mobutu's, and the current DRC is definitely much stronger than the DRC ruled by Mobutu.

If it weren't much stronger, Rhodesia is so close to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and he asked Grace to solve the hidden dangers under his nose first, and he still needs to work hard in North Africa first?

Faced with the transformation of Central Asia, Sudan can of course boast, but it cannot be assumed that all pro-Soviet countries in Africa will collapse like Sudan with a little external pressure.

However, his good friend, Reagan, who is now the speaker of the United States, may not think so. Sudan announced that it would abandon the Soviet system overnight, and it is not only Britain that celebrates.The entire White House seemed to be in a sea of ​​joy. From the moment Reagan took office, he showed that the Cold War ended in his own hands.

Don't care if he really thinks so in his heart, but his performance is indeed so obvious, but in fact, the United States has only found some self-confidence in Grenada.Even Gaddafi, who historically led a population of less than 400 million, was never touched by Reagan.

Now Sudan's compromise has allowed Reagan to find a breakthrough point, or else the old imperialism still has something to learn. Although the African strategy was proposed by the United Kingdom, Reagan felt that since the truth and reality of Africa had been discovered, the United States could Take out more power to operate.

This has two advantages. The first is to humiliate the Soviet Union, which cannot be overemphasized, and the other is to contain Britain.

The United Kingdom cannot be allowed to win a big victory in the African strategy. It is precisely because of this that the United States has to join. Only by carrying out the African strategy with the United Kingdom can the British influence in Africa be prevented from rising to a higher level.

The foreign troubles are the Soviet Union, and the internal troubles are Britain and France. Of course, the United States hopes to completely eliminate the Soviet Union, but it must also keep an eye on Britain and France to prevent these two countries from becoming rivals of the United States.

Former Secretary of State General Haig, although he has resigned, does not mean that Reagan has lost his trust in General Haig. Such a fight in Africa is more suitable for people like General Haig. You can't expect CIA agents to go to war.

"The president is right." General Haig commented sincerely, thinking that Reagan was right about internal and external troubles, and he really had to be on guard against Britain. If the Soviets left Africa, in exchange for Britain coming back, then For the United States, there is no gain at all. "African issues really deserve our attention. Not only the United Kingdom, but also France."

The African issue cannot be bypassed by France. France, which claims to have half of Africa in its hands, is actually more difficult to deal with than the United Kingdom on the surface. France uses its own hard power army and economy and soft power French and culture to colonize all these countries. The rule continues to this day.

France has always been reluctant to part with its colonies, and after suffering losses in Vietnam, it turned to take both hard and soft routes.

In another world, Britain can only do things in Africa within the framework of the Commonwealth of Nations and with France.The Commonwealth itself is very loose and has limited influence.Britain's strength lies in the hegemony of English and the leading position in educational media, influencing Africa with invisible power.

But in this world, even if the United Kingdom does not hold on to Africa as clearly as France, it still has a high sense of presence in the eyes of Washington, especially Rhodesia has become a destination for all British African white immigrants, and the other One destination, of course, is Australia.

The U.S. Africa strategy was released shortly thereafter. It is almost the same as the Whitehall's Africa strategy, but the purpose of course is to prevent the resurgence of Britain's traditional influence in pro-Soviet countries, so the fundamental core of this strategy is, No matter what Britain does, the United States will follow closely and exclude Britain's role in it.

This strategy is very smart. To fight against foreign countries, we must first settle down at home, but Alan Wilson actually didn’t care about Africa at all, nor did he have the idea of ​​restoring British influence after driving away the influence of the Soviet Union.The nails that should be left, such as Zanzibar Island, have already been completed.

As a de facto Asian country, the UK has nothing to do in Africa?Even the meeting with Prince Alexander, Crown Prince of Yugoslavia, was more important than the African strategy.

Of course, this is not the case in public opinion. The great victory of Sudan has of course become Mrs. Thatcher's self-expression in the House of Commons.

In fact, it is not that the Yugoslav royal family is not supported. The reason why they have ended up today is that, just like Grace, they were unlucky to meet Tito, a man who fell from heaven.

Alan Wilson has little confidence in the restoration of the Yugoslav monarchy, but it must also be prepared, which is not a conflict.

A nation like Yugoslavia, which has no de facto main body, has very little cohesion. In fact, having a king may be a good thing.

Two preparations must be made for Yugoslavia. One is to find the controllers of these enterprises in this republic of enterprise conglomerates and make a fortune together. If this cannot be done, see if Prince Alexander can condense the unity of this country.

As for who is the leader of Yugoslavia at this time, it doesn't matter. Before Tito's death, the political structure of Yugoslavia was specifically changed. Yugoslavia has no president.Instead, they are in a presidium, representing the interests of all the republics. Such a structure is difficult to find an agent. It is better to find the controller of a local enterprise. The current situation of Yugoslavia depends on how much useful information patriotic southerners can get.
