There are two things to do now, hand over the contents of the North Rhodesian Secret Covenant to Whitehall and let Norman Brook see how it goes. There is also the need for the military to develop a plan to seize the Lubumbashi area.

Norman Brooke is actually less than sixty years old, but he has been showing signs of lack of energy recently. In the final analysis, the leader of the British civil servants only has the same hobbies as Emperor Apocalypse, but he is in line with Yongzheng in his work. He even looks a little older than his predecessor Edward Bridges.

"Very good, with Northern Rhodesia as the core, it is very thoughtful to maintain the British influence in Africa." Norman Brooke is very satisfied, "The matter in Africa has come to an end, and Tanganyika remains in East Africa. This The place that used to belong to the German colony, the trusteeship time is coming soon."

"Speaking of this, if all goes well, Malawi should try to merge with Tanganyika."

Alan Wilson said directly, "A part of Malawi is now under the control of Northern Rhodesia. The problem is that the population density around Lake Malawi is still very high. Once such a small colony becomes independent, the population Pressure will follow. There will be friction with Northern Rhodesia. To be honest, the main residents of Northern Rhodesia are Slavs, but black people don't see it that way. They don't know the difference between us and these Slavs. The concept of white people."

"If such friction occurs, the UK will be in an embarrassing situation and may also be criticized."

"If Malawi and Tanganyika are merged and then made independent, this contradiction will be digested internally. The hidden danger can be solved for Northern Rhodesia."

Alan Wilson explained his idea of ​​changing the colony. Because of his own reasons, the island of Sunnyvale is blocked at the gate of Tanganyika. Tanganyika is not to be annexed. The first choice for shore balance.

Once Tanganyika ignores the interests of the United Kingdom in the future, the location of Sannibar can completely block Tanganyika and force it to submit. What is the East African Liberation Army, after all, it is a group of black people.

But he is still willing to leave some benefits for Tanganyika. This is Malawi, which is located between Northern Rhodesia and Tanganyika. Tanganyika can be merged with Malawi, so that the contradiction can be digested.

This will give Tanganyika a little sweetness, and maybe it will improve the relationship between Northern Rhodesia and Tanganyika.

In fact, according to Alan Wilson's memory, although Tanzania had a good relationship with a major country during the Cold War. But it did not fall out with Britain or even the whole free world. Is Nyerere a representative of African socialism?

This is not wrong, but it does not mean that he must be anti-British elements, Nyerere eventually died in London.

After Tanzania became independent, there was a mutiny, and Nyerere was in danger of stepping down. This mutiny was suppressed by British troops. In general, Nyerere maintained a peaceful relationship with Britain. Although he was indeed ideologically with the Soviet Union.

"On the condition of the merger of Malawi and Tanganyika, we are talking to Nyerere for a five-year observation period. That is to say, the handover of power, the garrison will not be withdrawn first." Alan Wilson said while calculating, "Yes If you have time, you can invite Nyerere to London and we can talk."

Among the pro-Soviet leaders, Nyerere is obviously one of the less radical ones. If they can talk properly, Britain can help Nyerere. Of course, this is also good for Britain.

Like other colonies in British Africa, Tanganyika is also adopting a strategy of real estate development.

And it doesn’t need to be supported by the Gold Coast like Nigeria. Tanganyika itself has gold production, and it is also a key area for the British to operate in Africa after the war. The gold production cannot catch up with the British Gold Coast, but it can absolutely satisfy Tanganyika itself construction.

Although South Africa no longer listens to Britain, the second and third largest gold producing areas in Africa are still in British hands. The Gold Coast and Tanganyika have made indelible contributions to Britain after the war.

"The way is a good way, but Nyerere is not easy to deal with. Although he is relatively mild, he is likely to be a person like Nehru." Norman Brooke frowned slightly, "Give most of Malawi to Will he agree?"

"Can we release the news that Malawi has a shadow of gold reserves, so that it will not be a negative asset if it is packaged." Alan Wilson had an idea and thought of the Ogaden war that caused Ethiopia and Somalia, two pro-Soviet countries. .

Later generations proved that the Ogaden area has no oil resources at all, but this news directly caused the two pro-Soviet countries in the Horn of Africa to fight, which can be described as a quite impressive operation.

Norman Brooke's eyes lit up and said with a tone of approval, "Alan, a very good idea. If there is gold, the nonsense of the East African powers, I mean a wonderful future, maybe it can impress Nyerere."

"This is also an accidental suggestion." Alan Wilson expressed modesty, the example of the Ogaden War, the respected Sir Norman does not need to know, but the hidden danger of war will be detonated sooner or later, because the Ogaden area itself is a disputed territory.

The Ogaden area can also be called Egyptian Somalia. It was originally a part of Somalia. Somalia was divided into five parts by colonial countries such as Britain, France and Italy. The Ogaden area, which covers an area of ​​380,000 square kilometers, was taken over in 1897. It was assigned to Ethiopia, which was transferred to Ethiopian control after World War II.

The Ogaden area is mainly dominated by Somalis, which is incompatible with Ethiopia. It is assigned to Ethiopia, which is mainly a prominent African power in Ethiopia. It has to give face.

"Sometimes classics are created by accident, and you don't have to be too modest." Norman Brooke shook his head slightly, "Alan, your abilities are not only limited to this, but what is commendable is that you and the military have A harmonious relationship is a more prominent advantage than many people."

The relationship between Alan Wilson and Marshal Mountbatten's son-in-law is also a bridge between Whitehall and the military. There is no need to avoid this, at least according to Norman Brook, and it should be used to its advantage.

Alan Wilson felt his bones lighten by two taels upon hearing this. Does this mean that the cabinet secretary is very optimistic about himself? Of course, he couldn't ask the exit directly, he could only leave Whitehall with some excitement.

After leaving Whitehall, Alan Wilson went to the Ministry of Defense in a blink of an eye, and got rid of the professionals to come up with a report on the seizure of the Lubumbashi area, which of course must be kept secret.

As Norman Brooke said, a good relationship with the military is an important factor in Alan Wilson's reliability. With Marshal Mountbatten there, he would not be harassed by the military.

Of course, taking this opportunity, he did not forget to go back to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a face-to-face, saying that he had returned to China. Macmillan is actually very happy that Alan Wilson, the Permanent Undersecretary of the Foreign Office, exists from time to time and travels abroad from time to time to make his life very comfortable.

The Foreign Secretary must have misunderstood. One of the important reasons why Alan Wilson is assured of going abroad for business is because even if he is away, foreign policy cannot be dominated by this foreign secretary, who has an American mother, and the Prime Minister is interested in foreign affairs. , far more than interest in domestic affairs.

As soon as Eden came to power, he made a solemn pledge in the House of Commons to build consensus politics with the Conservative Party. His adjustment to drastic nationalization, but definitely abolition. He is in charge of foreign affairs.

As a major event in international affairs, there is currently only one Six-Party Talks under preparation, which has been regarded by Aiden as an important achievement of his own. As Foreign Secretary MacMillan, at least in this matter, he cannot interfere.

After finishing these things, Alan Wilson went to the Emerald House in Hoxon, where his wife was enjoying the rare livable season in England, with her lovely children.

Arriving in Hoxon, Alan Wilson enjoyed a rare tranquility, which was temporary. He had a vague feeling that a lady who was the same as his wife would come back to find him on a rocket recently.

Hoxon's here has been bought by Pamela Mountbatten as a residence for her time in the UK. In the Emerald House are some collections of antiques from various sources, which are used to set up a learned person for her husband.

As the evening approached, Alan Wilson raised a bonfire in the yard, enjoying the tranquility with his family, and raising a glass with his wife in a very original way.

"It's a bit burnt." Pamela Mountbatten's face was flushed after drinking, like a country girl, not like the president of the Concaine Group, who was born from a noble family and is now very wealthy.

"I'll touch it." As he spoke, Alan Wilson touched his wife's hot face apologetically, "My dear, when you came back in the summer, I went to Africa, and I feel very sorry for this. I'm sorry. How much I want to be by your side."

"You have your business~lightnovelpub.net~ I can understand." Pamela Mountbatten leaned on her husband's shoulder, took another sip of wine and asked, "Are you also doing the six-party talks in Basra? Want to go? Do you feel like there will be a good outcome?"

"Let's take one step at a time. The gap in hard power is indeed worrying. However, conservative treatment is still possible." Alan Wilson, often possessed by the public, explained that space is exchanged for time. strategy.

"One thing is, if the Iranian oil crisis is settled, the distribution of oil shares in the Middle East may enter a new stage. The current five-to-five account may become history."

"Huh? How much?" Pamela Mountbatten hummed, then looked straight at her husband.

Alan Wilson shook his head, "It's not how much it's changed, it should be gone. In the future, if you want to make a profit, you won't make a fuss about crude oil, but you will find a way to refine oil."

"Huh! Huh?" Pamela Mountbatten hummed twice, then suddenly laughed, "How does your head grow, can you see the future?"

Refinery facility? Isn't it already built in Singapore, is this for her to take over?
