Hehe, a burst of laughter erupted in the conference room. The current complicated relationship between Britain and the United States has caused British diplomats to ridicule the United States, especially when encountering such things.

The British never lack the courage to laugh at others, and the United States is also in this range.

"Italians on our side." The jokes on the North African battlefield reappeared in the mouths of British diplomats.

"It's very strange. How could the United States fail in its intervention in such a small country?" Dixon said puzzledly. "In this case, we are really worried about the American troops stationed in Europe. The Soviet Union is much more difficult to deal with than Cuba."

"It's not that serious." Alan Wilson opened his mouth to stop his taunting.

He just took the opportunity to laugh at the United States, rather than really thinking that the United States is not good.

It may not be as deterrent as the ones from the Soviet Union in terms of military affairs, but if you think that the United States is a paper tiger because of this, it is not an objective understanding. If the United States is a paper tiger, wouldn't the Soviet Union, which is standing side by side, not be much stronger?

Could it be that the real hidden rulers of this era are Britain and France? It is estimated that even the citizens of Britain and France do not believe it.

It’s just that Cuba happens to be outside the comfort zone of the US military, but the UK is not. The UK is within the comfort zone of the US in all aspects.

What is a comfort zone? It is to match the best opponent. The most obvious example is the war between Germany and France during World War II.

Although the French army is not inferior to the German army in terms of hardware, its tactical thinking is an era behind. The collision between the two countries and the French army can show the demeanor of the first army in Europe in a local position, but the German army cut its throat instantly in the overall situation.

This is the relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States now, and the most powerful Royal Navy is just a downsized U.S. Navy. In fact, in the comfort zone of the United States.

You have to lag behind in a position that is just firmly grasped, and you can't do it too far behind. If you are too backward, it will also make your opponent deviate from the way you are best at. This is why some seemingly weak places can cause trouble for powerful countries.

The Qing army of the Opium War and the subcontinent army of the British colonial India were in the comfort zone of the British army a hundred years ago. These armies are not purely cold-armed armies. On the contrary, there are also decent-looking armies in the local area. It's the same as what the British army ordered. They ordered 50, and the British army ordered 100. The result is that the British army is no stranger to the enemy's tactics, and they can take it without any effort.

And places that are too backward and have no skills at all will cause huge troubles for the UK. For example, the Zulu people in Africa have no skills at all, and the British army is also completely unfamiliar with this kind of combat. If you don't pay attention, you will overturn your car.

What is the solution? Let the Indians be the help of Britain to deal with these enemies who have no skills at all.

If Alan Wilson had the status he has today sixty or seventy years ago, he would definitely formulate a policy when dividing up Africa, hiring the Qing army to go to Africa to deal with those African natives. These completely unmodernized enemies happened to be in Qing Dynasty. The next level of the army, that is to say, is in the comfort zone of the Qing army.

Naturally, the original intention was to show the true level of the African natives, and it was not like they had never done it in Zhungeer by asking the Qing army to clear the field.

This is why the Qing army hammered the invincible hands in East Asia before the arrival of the British army, but was hanged and beaten by the British army.

Specific to the current Bay of Pigs incident, the United States is disgraced, and the United Kingdom ridiculed it. Don’t really think that the United States is strong outside the country. It may be true for the third world, but it is not the case for European countries.

But ridicule and ridicule are harmless. Alan Wilson really expressed Britain’s concerns about the failure of the Bay of Pigs incident through the ambassador to the United States. Although he did not explicitly say it, he did mention the Korean War in passing, saying that the U.S. military should not always get involved This kind of action that reveals its true colors, otherwise it will not be able to scare the Soviet Union.

In fact, he spoke out at this time, which is somewhat inconsistent with the position of the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, because the Soviet delegation will arrive in London tomorrow after completing its visit to Italy and France for a five-day visit. , this visit to Europe will end, and the UK will be the last stop.

While the Kremlin was still criticizing the U.S. invasion of Cuba, the Soviet delegation arrived in London, and Fultseva appeared in carefully selected clothes, over a body that had recently been heavily exercised, and delicate makeup. London.

"She still attaches great importance to me!" Alan Wilson could see at a glance the careful preparation of the cultural tsar, and he already had sufficient experience in dealing with women of this age. It can be seen from the face whether a woman works out regularly.

A woman who works out regularly will have tough lines on her face, but compared with aging, her lack of femininity can only be regarded as a small flaw.

Pretentiously, they shook hands with each other, and the main welcome ceremony focused on Gagarin, the first human being to go to heaven.

Among the mainstream countries in the world, Gagarin is indeed a hero belonging to all mankind. When he walked out of the airport, the citizens of London were also crowded, wanting to see the demeanor of the first man in space.

In the final itinerary, Gagarin will also go to Buckingham Palace, where he will be personally entertained by Queen Elizabeth to pay high respects to this hero of all mankind, showing the highest realm of Britain. Of course that was the last arrangement.

Gagarin traveled in a convertible, and wherever he went, he was warmly welcomed by British citizens. Many people, even women, climbed onto the roof hoping to see what the first person who escaped the gravity of the earth looked like.

On the first day's itinerary, under the strong request of the Soviet Union, Gagarin will lay a bouquet at Marx's cemetery.

Macmillan also had to go against his heart, saying that Marx was a great man with such a far-reaching influence.

Six hundred reporters poured into the Earl's Palace where Gagarin was interviewed, which shows the popularity of the first man in space in the UK.

"I didn't expect that." Macmillan, who was in a stable position for the time being, was greatly surprised. He never expected that Britain would welcome a Soviet in such a way.

"Who made him the real first person in space?" Alan Wilson pondered for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Should we spread some rumors... well, doubts within a reasonable range, saying that the Soviet Union was a fake. In all fairness, this trick is more suitable for The social environment of the United States, where there are many stupid people, may not be suitable for the United Kingdom."

Macmillan, whose mother is American, felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it, but he couldn't say anything, "Don't do that."

What is the majesty of the father? Alan Wilson believes that the problem is that he has just finished taunting the Americans, but because of Gagarin and the Soviet delegation’s visit to the United Kingdom, the Americans still express their concerns about the United Kingdom, emphasizing the occasional twists and turns in the special relationship between Britain and the United States, but they have always been stable.

It is generally emphasized that the special relationship between Britain and the United States is mostly Britain. Gagarin's visit this time actually made the United States take the initiative to mention the special relationship between Britain and the United States. This is really rare.

Alan Wilson was in a good mood, and his reply indicated that the special relationship between Britain and the United States was unbreakable. This is just a normal visit.

In the evening, I excitedly went to the hotel I personally arranged to share the joy with the cultural tsar. Obviously, Fultseva was also waiting for him. Their identities were destined not to meet often, and every meeting was worth cherishing.

"Without your Soviet Union's decisive action in the Congo, we would have had a hard time doing it." Alan Wilson put his arms around the body of the cultural tsar, looking as if the whole world was in my hands, "But in terms of Iran, the United Kingdom still bears the burden." We have put a lot of pressure on you. We have withdrawn, and the next step for the United States is you."

Alan Wilson still didn't talk much about the latest Cuban issue. He still had some reservations. The Cuban missile crisis still appeared, which was more in the interests of the UK. At least the British Foreign Office could mediate.

"Aren't you proud?" Fultseva lightly hammered Alan Wilson, "You forgot that you are just a civil servant, not the prime minister."

"Elect once in a few years, what is there to be proud of, power is forever." Alan Wilson was unmoved, grasping the plumpness of the cultural tsar, and suddenly bent down and whispered.

"No!" Fultseva flatly refused, she could not accept a man's request, and she also had her own bottom line.

"Ekaterina, just this time." Alan Wilson leaned over and begged in a low voice. The cultural tsar refused to agree with anything, and his attitude was very firm. In the end, Alan Wilson had no choice. How many spies are there? In your intelligence system, the status is not low."

"One may be ready to escape, while the other is hiding deeper. If I don't say ~lightnovelpub.net~ for a year or so, the KGB won't be able to dig out who it is. It is a great credit to have been found out in the hands of the personnel, of course you are not an intelligence officer, so you are definitely not interested."

When Fultseva heard this, hesitation appeared on her face. She would not care about the credit, but her son will graduate soon. She doesn't want her son to work in the KGB, but what can they do if they want her? What if the son has a share of the credit?

"Just once!" Fultseva hypnotized herself. This was a sacrifice made for the sake of the child, and it was finally a compromise.

"No problem! Will I harm you? I will not harm any woman, I will only take extra care of you." Alan Wilson agreed without hesitation, as long as there is the first time, there will be countless times.

Fultseva took a look at the cheap and obedient man, thinking it was for her son's future, anyway, she had already let the other party get so much from her, and it was not bad for the final bottom line.

The cultural tsar, who only wanted to pave the way for his son, was willing to go all out this time, as long as what the man said was true.

"You are not a cadre of the intelligence department, why are you so concerned about this kind of thing?" Alan Wilson squinted at Fultseva.
