British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1068: Gagarin

Before Nyerere left England, Alan Wilson had been in contact with the High Commissioner of the West African Colonies, and had carefully received the independent leader of the Tanganyika and Malawi colonies.

Strictly speaking, the Malawi colony no longer exists and has been merged into Tanganyika. countries like the United Republic of Zanzibar.

Of course, Alan Wilson thinks so, and it doesn't mean that the local people in Malawi think so, but even if the Malawians don't think so, he will do it. Even if it may lead to a fight between Tanganyika and Malawi in the future.

With only half of Malawi remaining, after merging into Tanganyika, Nyerere's country will have a land area of ​​more than one million square kilometers in the future. In terms of land area, it cannot be regarded as a small country.

"It took another five years." Alan Wilson, who had done it, said to Dixon in a relieved tone, "What does the minister think about this? Or what does the Prime Minister think?" The Prime Minister is particularly concerned about the work in the diplomatic field. wrong.

"The chancellor is open to this, but the Prime Minister seems to want a more favorable outcome for the UK." Dixon knew all about it. "Secretary, do you think this plan is feasible?"

"I don't know either." Alan Wilson shrugged. "Let's take a step by step. In fact, for the value of Africa, that is, we pay more attention to the interests of Asia. If we can use the Malayan colony to drive the British It's good to see some improvement in Africa. If we can't, we've done our best."

In the fifteenth year of the war's end, Alan Wilson said in all fairness, the current situation was fine.

Didn't the British kill Burma again? Losing the armor and disarming all the way is over, and now it is time to try to regain the lost ground.

Of course, in name, losing colonies will still be the mainstream for some time to come, which is inevitable.

Since Malawi was merged into Tanganyika, there is no need to keep the garrison in Malawi. Evacuation is imperative, and Alan Wilson wants to ask his father-in-law where the Malawi garrison is going to be withdrawn.

Because of the lack of local troops, Alan Wilson suggested that Marshal Mountbatten should recruit troops from the colonies. Of course, not all the troops in the colonies can be trusted. At present, some Malays in Malaya are stationed in the Andaman Islands, and some troops have been recruited. Arranged to Zanzibar.

The South Island soldiers were placed in the Middle East to supplement the British garrison in the Persian Gulf. The replaced British troops were either abolished or added to the British troops stationed in Germany.

This round of adjustments is matched according to Alan Wilson's comfort zone. The so-called comfort zone is to find a higher level of power to match the lower level of power. But you can't kill the chicken with a knife, otherwise it will cause a waste of military power.

"The number of troops stationed in Malawi is only 2,000. The initial idea is to directly abolish it." Marshal Mountbatten said without thinking, "At the same time, we have to leave a certain amount of time for the local immigrants. Let them choose by themselves."

"The Malawi colony is of little value, in fact, there is no choice." Alan Wilson said honestly, "merging into Tanganyika is a good thing for the people of Malawi, otherwise they will survive in the cracks of independence. "

The natural conditions of British Africa are much better than those of French Africa, but it is not that there is no value. The situation of Malawi is only better than that of Niger and Chad in the Sahara Desert. We live by Lake Malawi.

Alan Wilson is completely thinking about the local people in Malawi, otherwise a country like Niger and Chad would be created, which would be a real disaster. Basic conditions can't determine everything, but they can determine most things.

After all, Egypt still has the Nile River, Saudi Arabia still has oil resources, and countries that really have no favorable conditions other than sand, such as Niger and Chad, anyway, Alan Wilson's shallow knowledge is unable to think of a way to develop.

Look at this awe-inspiring look of justice! Marshal Mountbatten looked tired, and his son-in-law really seemed to do justice, and he believed in it, "Alan, you are too suitable to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"It would have been better if it was fifty years ago." Alan Wilson didn't think there was anything wrong with Marshal Mountbatten's words, but made an oath, "It's a pity that this era has failed me, and the aviation industry is not known to be settled. no?"

"It's not a big problem. Marshal Montgomery's visit to the East was originally an ice-breaking trip. In fact, we don't really recognize Mr. Chang, but we didn't cut diplomatic relations with him because we were worried about the idea of ​​the United States." Marshal Mountbatten said this. Turn, "Actually, China is also very interested in trade with us. After all, China is also in an awkward situation now."

"That's true, anti-American and anti-Soviet, should be a special case in today's world."

Alan Wilson nodded and said, "It seems that our aviation industry can knock on the door of the eastern market. In recent years, the Comet airliner has encountered a bottleneck. Although the launch of regional airliners has eased some pressure, it is still in terms of sales. It is quite obvious that countries like Japan and South Korea do not consider the Comet airliner at all, and are completely reserved for Boeing. On the contrary, our colonial Comet airliner dominates, and the British Commonwealth and European markets are in competition, but we have the first mover advantage, we should find a new market and stabilize the current advantage.”

"After Montgomery came back, I had an exchange with him. In fact, this visit was not bad. The marshal emphasized the difference between the United States and the United Kingdom." Mountbatten signaled his son-in-law to relax. This visit was quite fruitful.

"I guess Marshal Montgomery must have pushed all the bad things to the United States, and at the same time showed that the United Kingdom and the United States are different, but this can't be called a mistake." Alan Wilson said with a haha, happily, " It looks like we can expect one more market for the Comet."

You don't have to ask Montgomery what he said, Alan Wilson can totally guess that, if Montgomery visits, it's nothing more than that all the problems that plague you will basically disappear in a few decades.

People's living standards will be greatly improved, social, educational and medical issues will be comprehensively reformed and resolved, and social welfare and happiness will rise sharply.

Montgomery is probably just a courtesy, after all, he is a soldier, and the main communication of the visit is also in the military aspect.

At the end of the year, it was a little calm for Britain, because of his fierce opposition, Xia Meng did not return to Hong Kong to be a judge of the film festival, and everything was waiting for the child to be born.

This attitude also brought a lot of pressure to Xia Meng, and he began to ask men of the same status as their husbands whether they liked boys or girls.

But how could such words get into the eyes of senior bureaucrats in Whitehall, Alan Wilson is honest, "In terms of responsibilities and obligations, I hope to have a boy, so that some of my ideas can be realized more easily. Girls are in some things. There are still limitations, of course you don't have to be under pressure, I'm just as happy when my daughter is born."

If the Nadakhan of Kazakh had a son, he would not be late. Thirty years in power is enough to pave the way for his son to come to power, but there is no way. Nadakhan has only three daughters, and it is useless to pave the way in the political field. A big week.

Alan Wilson also expects Xia Meng's son to be able to go deep into the bamboo curtain. If it is a daughter, it may not be so smooth.

Although he said that Xia Meng should not be under psychological pressure, Xia Meng still hoped that he would live up to his expectations and have a son born, so maybe this man would be better for him.

Alan Wilson didn't know that Xia Meng was still full of feudal remnants. He forgot about it after he finished speaking, and directly opened the telegram sent by Richard about the completion of the Land Rover production line and the official start of production.

This is very gratifying. Because of the exchange rate problem of the British pound, the export of automobiles in the United Kingdom is too disadvantageous, and a place is needed to avoid this unfavorable factor. In fact, Germany has also encountered similar problems. When Germany used the mark, because of the strength of the mark in Europe at the end of the Cold War, there were factors that were unfavorable to German exports.

The solution was the emergence of the European Union and the euro, which became the key factor in Germany's defeat of France and Italy.

The UK cannot learn from Germany, and the UK cannot get around the hurdle by insisting on using the British pound.

"Even now ~lightnovelpub.net~ Malaya's industry is enough to crush Southeast Asia, and it has a geographical advantage over Japan." Alan Wilson put his hands behind his back, planning to attack Japan and even South Korea's layout.

The Chilean tsunami in the middle of the year did not affect Malaya. After all, the side of the Malayan colony facing Chile was the Dutch colony, but Japan was affected by the Chilean tsunami.

Therefore, Malaya, who is safe and sound, continues to start its own development in an orderly manner, and does not need to do disaster relief like Japan.

Originally, he thought that such a year had passed, and after sending birthday wishes to Heidi Rama and Vivien Leigh, he counted with his fingers who he would spend Christmas with, but a message from Moscow broke his expectations for a stable New Year.

"Gagarin? Half a year early!" Taking the TASS report, Alan Wilson was stunned. Gagarin took the Vostok-1 spacecraft to set sail from the Baikonur launch site and circled on an orbit with a maximum altitude of 300 kilometers. The earth returned safely in one hour and forty-eight minutes, and landed in the village of Smerovka, Saratov, completing the world's first manned space flight.

After calculating the time, it was more than five months earlier, but the astronauts have not changed. Now the whole world is in the shock caused by this news.
