"I still hope that we will obediently maintain the form of a colony." Nyerere snorted and said with a look of seeing through Alan Wilson, "Britain is doing everything possible to colonize Africa."

"That's not bad, but we have our reasons. In all fairness, I can find a hundred reasons for not allowing you to be independent, and every one of them makes sense. From education, ethnicity, military, and even geographical environment. But I Now I just want to say one thing, let's use the businessman's thinking to explain this problem."

Alan Wilson said to Nyerere seemingly sincerely, "Do you think that there is a Soviet Union in the world, and any country can learn from the Soviet Union? It has 22 million square kilometers of land, do you have it? Even if it is a merger In Malawi, the land you can use to build a country is only 1 million square kilometers. However, it is stronger than many countries in French Africa. At least your land life is not a problem, unlike Chad, on the bright side, a hundred More than 10,000 square kilometers, but the whole country is supported by Lake Chad.”

"If there is a problem with Lake Chad, the whole of Chad will just wait to eat the sand. There is no shortage of sand in the Sahara."

"You can use Tanganyika's resources in exchange for funds to develop the country, but who owns this market? One is the United States and the other is Europe. You won't sell resources to the Soviet Union, right? lack."

"So it's a fact that even if Tanganyika becomes independent, the British influence is still there."

The communication between Alan Wilson and Nyerere is a fact-based dialogue. Even if Tanganyika is independent, there are not many choices. Of course, if Nyerere recognizes the RMB, it is considered that he did not say anything.

But what does Tanganyika think of itself? In the world, except for the US dollar and the British pound, you can't buy anything by hoarding a pile of RMB.

Nyerere saw such a diplomat for the first time. In his eyes, Alan Wilson was sincere, and everything he said was true. But these facts hurt his feelings greatly, "I can ask the Soviet Union for help."

"The last country that asked the Soviet Union for help was in a civil war. Even if Britain could tolerate it, the United States would do it. So from the facts, I hope that Mr. Nyerere will not do it, and even if he wants to do it, don't say it."

"Actually, in terms of transaction, I want to exchange Malawi's land for some time. If Tanganyika is in trouble with the British in the independent stalls of French Africa, it does not take British dignity seriously. ."

"How long was that? Five years? Ten years?" Nyerere sneered. "The people of Tanganyika can't wait that long."

"I hope it will be five years. After the end of the year, you can start to follow the independence agenda of Nigeria. You can direct the local British civil servants in Tanganyika to operate the government. After five years, Tanganyika can hold general elections and officially become independent."

Alan Wilson is not embarrassed at all, he is this purpose, "We Britain must prove to be stronger than France. So hasty independence is not an option for Britain. If Mr. Nyerere is willing to cooperate, he will get a lot of help from the United Kingdom. , including but not limited to economic, military and even a range of support."

Nyerere didn't answer, fell into thinking, Alan Wilson went further, "Your Excellency's itinerary in the UK has been arranged, of course, I also hope to go to Nigeria and the Gold Coast to see, the West African colony's entry into the independence agenda is more important. Early on, the current construction may give you some ideas for building Tanganyika, and we actually have an economic plan that covers the whole of East Africa, and if Mr. Nyerere wants, I can give you a copy."

Nyerere was of course very interested, so Alan Wilson gave Nyerere a small, 450-page, very detailed East African economic development plan for the railway construction and development plan in the Great Lakes region of Africa. But with Tanganyika himself, it is 100% impossible.

Britain can't do it now, the industrial power of the nineteenth century, "the poorest patriot in the east end of London can't help but puff out his chest when he thinks of British industry and wealth".

But in front of Nyerere, it is still possible to act as an old industrial power. Alan Wilson almost included all the companies and industries that the UK can currently handle in Nyerere's visit itinerary. He said nothing. Use it, let Nyerere feel the difference for himself, and then make a judgment.

"Executive Deputy Secretary, will this be a little bit?" Chief Private Secretary Wick hesitated, feeling that the openness was too large.

"What is it? Just look at the level of black people and copy them at a glance?" Alan Wilson grinned. "It's really surprising that black people have this level. Anyone can learn from the Soviet Union?"

In the field of reverse engineering, only one country during the Cold War had this capability, and that was the Soviet Union, the leader of the hostile camp. If there are still half of them, add a certain power that is lashing out at the Soviet Union.

Alan Wilson does not think that a Tanganyika, whose future generations are not so powerful in Africa, has this ability.

"It's a factor that sets us apart from the agricultural days," said Alan Wilson to Wick. "You go around with Nyerere, remember, keep him respectful," said At some point he'll be the leader of a country, and it's good for your future to have a personal relationship."

"Are we really letting go of Africa?" Wick couldn't believe it. "Five million square kilometers of land."

"Who made our population less dominant? That opportunity has passed." Alan Wilson sighed. After all, the attempts of European colonial countries to occupy the magpie's nest were unsuccessful.

In fact, the reason why Europe hangs other civilizations is very simple, the direct consequence of population crushing.

It is true that no country in Europe has the population of the Qing Dynasty, but the population of any country in Europe has an absolute advantage over places other than the Qing Dynasty.

Take the Ottoman Empire before its annihilation as an example. The population of the Ottoman Empire was only 20 million, and even the population of Italy in Europe was larger than that of the Ottoman Empire. This is still the population size of the hegemon in the Near East.

The population of the entire Black Africa combined is equivalent to one of Britain, France and Germany, not to mention the division of Africa where Britain, France and Germany are all present.

As for the reason why the Qing Dynasty was not treated as colonized, the simplest reason was that the population was too large and it was under the management of a central government.

India has been splitting up all the time. It took Britain more than a hundred years to establish British India. The same tricks could not deal with the Qing Dynasty.

Even now, Tanganyika has a population of less than 10 million, and even less in the interior of Africa. But Alan Wilson knows that Africa's population growth is far greater than that of other continents.

The Cabinet and Whitehall are also very concerned about Nyerere's arrival this time. Norman Brooke has recently asked Alan Wilson to sit down at 70 Whitehall and ask if there is any progress.

"What do you think about the future of Tanganyika?" Norman Brooke asked, "Can it become a country that is close to the United Kingdom?"

"It may be difficult to just tie up economics and politics, unless we, like France, interfere with countries in French Africa at any time. However, with Sunnyvale in our hands, it is not too difficult to balance offshore." Allen Wilson replied while thinking, "Leaving Sunnyvale is for this consideration. Its largest city, Dar es Salaam, is facing the garrison of Sunnyvale. If you want to come to Tanganyika, even if it is independent, It won't fall out with us."

"If I were Nyerere, I would ask if I could merge with Sunnyvale." Norman Brook said with a smile.

"Even if we agree, Egypt and Iraq will not agree. Although Europe's reputation may not be very good because of the colonial era, it does not mean that other countries do not discriminate against black people. Don't look at the Soviet Union and China, which is farther away. If they had nothing to see black people wandering around, it would explode. Not to mention the Arabs."

Allen Wilson said decisively. Many things stand on the moral high ground and criticize colonialism. It is just because they failed to catch up. Allen Wilson has always believed that once a mainland country adopts a strategy of expansion, not 100%, 90% The possibility that the expanded places will become jungels.

When the two were discussing the future of Tanganyika, Nyerere was visiting the production line of the Comet airliner. From this, it can be seen how sincere Alan Wilson is enough. Even in the 21st century, large planes are very high-tech. industry. Boeing and Airbus represent the cutting-edge industries of the United States and the European Union, respectively.

Comet airliner is Pamela Mountbatten's industry, UU reading www.uukanshu. The people here at com had long known who arranged for Nyerere. The person in charge had a refined and easy-going look, and took Nyerere to visit the industrial pride of the British Empire.

"No offense, Mr. Nyerere, but I'm proud to say that there are only three countries in the world with such power."

Nyerere, who had been silent for a while, asked back, "Which three countries!"

"The United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union." The head of the production line in a tooling said with a confident smile, "Without decades of industrial accumulation, it is impossible to have such an industry. This is also the cornerstone of the British Empire's foothold in this world."

The proud person in charge must not know that if it weren't for his boss's husband, the so-called pride of the Comet airliner would have been defeated by Boeing long ago. What is the pride of the British Empire?

Nyerere visited the various itinerary projects of airplanes, cars, and biological laboratories. From the beginning, he was full of interest, and then became reticent. Britain opened up these cutting-edge industries to him without any scruples, but it made him hot. heart was poured a basin of cold water.

Compared with the UK, which has these industries, Tanganyika hardly seems to live on the same earth. The gap is too far.
