v2 Chapter 1170: Dangers and Opportunities Coexist

Alan Wilson went on to say, "It should be emphasized that this confrontation originated from the deployment of ballistic missiles in Italy and Turkey, which made the Soviet Union feel threatened. This led to the Soviet Union's desperation to deploy ballistic missiles in Cuba for countermeasures. Fortunately, before the British Did not make the US use the UK as a missile base."

"As for the situation in the Caribbean Sea, in the previous meeting we put ourselves in the position of the United States and carried out the situation deduction. The preliminary conclusion is that the United States will definitely not allow such missiles, such as the Turkish and Italian missile bases on the edge of the Soviet Union. That was successfully deployed. The first few days may be just a diplomatic maneuver, and if it doesn’t work, the United States may eventually threaten the Soviet Union with nuclear war.”

"No way, is there a way for the United States to intercept the nuclear missiles taking off in Cuba?" Profumo was taken aback. This conclusion is too scary. Isn't this the result of a global nuclear war?

"I'm talking about the worst case scenario. There may be a showdown. If this situation arises, I believe Italy and Turkey will be the targets of the first round of nuclear strikes." Alan Wilson said without changing his expression, "Of course the world's major None of the countries can escape, it’s just a matter of sooner or later, Australia and New Zealand are still safe. Because the blue light missiles deployed in Australia can’t reach the Soviet Union…”

"As for the submarine-launched version of the evil missile, because of the concealment of nuclear submarines, the range of 2,500 kilometers is enough to deal with the Soviet Union. There are also 70 strategic bombers in the mainland, which are enough to face the possible nuclear threat from the Soviet Union."

"Of course, these deployments are not enough to solve all problems. Once the United States and the Soviet Union really want to fight a nuclear war, the British mainland will not be immune to nuclear strikes. The safest place is Australia in the southern hemisphere."

Alan Wilson, in a peaceful enough voice, introduced the deployment of nuclear war befalling Britain. It is also very clear that the United Kingdom has its own Trinity nuclear strike force, but due to distance reasons, it will not be able to protect the United Kingdom if it really goes to war.

Including Prime Minister Eden and a group of cabinet ministers facing each other, is this the mature plan that Whitehall came up with after comprehensive consideration?

Alan Wilson seemed to have nothing to do with him, and took out a stack of documents, "This is about the royal family and the government's plan to go to Australia to form a government-in-exile."

"If Cuba is the place where the nuclear war starts, North America is not safe enough to form a government-in-exile, but Australia is safe enough. The main cities of Australia are out of the range of Soviet intercontinental missiles, and the range of Soviet nuclear submarines and submarine-launched missiles is not enough. .”

Of course the meeting in Whitehall was fruitful. Didn't Alan Wilson formulate a plan for nuclear war? Even the safety of the royal family and the government-in-exile were considered. It can be described as doing my best!

It's just that the cabinet ministers of the current government don't like it very much. Rabo Butler looked at his executive secretary and joked, "Maybe it's not so serious, isn't it Allen?"

"Of course, my minister." Alan Wilson responded with a smile, "This is just the worst forecast scenario. It may not really happen. I am still quite optimistic. Maybe the final result will be the United States and the Soviet Union. Taking a step back and removing the missile launchers around the other side is also a good result."

"But when planning, you always have to consider the worst situation, so you don't have to be in a hurry when the time comes, don't you?"

When these words were spoken, the atmosphere of the entire cabinet meeting was lightened. Most of the content of the report just now was too heavy. Even though many Conservative Party cabinet ministers had experienced world wars, they still couldn't help but vomit in the face of the prospect of nuclear war.

No matter how cruel the world war is, in the final analysis, it needs cannon fodder to go to the front line to kill. For the powerful and powerful, the danger of war is not so great, but nuclear war is completely different. Everyone is equal before nuclear bombs, and the poor It doesn't matter if your life is not your life, but the life of a rich man is very important if you are not your life.

Alan Wilson doesn't fully understand this kind of mentality of being strong outside but capable in the middle, but he can basically guess it.

Obviously pointing to another possibility, everyone compromised with each other, and the atmosphere in the entire cabinet was lightened, talking and laughing again.

The disintegration of the Soviet Union has brought about a serious consequence, that is, Europe and the United States feel that they can force a country to submit without restriction through economic and political strangulation without paying any price.

This can be regarded as a kind of warning from history, because it has been successful in the past, so it will be successful again.

In a sense, this kind of blind thinking also brings dangerous prospects.

After the new Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet stopped talking, Norman Brook also began to ease the dignified atmosphere just now, "We still believe in the decision of the United States under our noses. In this forecast, we believe that the United States will rely on the most powerful navy in the world. , to carry out a comprehensive blockade against Cuba, the Soviet Red Navy is not strong, even the Royal Navy's blockade cannot break through, and there is no way to face this blockade."

"That is to say, the risk naturally exists, but it can still be ended." Aiden nodded in relief.

"Maybe the United States will take the opportunity to let the United Kingdom get involved, but we are in Europe, drawing the attention of the Caribbean Sea to ourselves?" Alan Wilson changed the subject when he said this, "I really hope that a war will break out somewhere, Can keep the UK busy and dodge this potentially violent vortex."

"Hehe! That's really a good idea." Aiden couldn't help laughing out loud, "In this way we can help justice and avoid being involved in such a big vortex."

A group of cabinet ministers laughed, and the tense atmosphere dissipated. They have to go to work tomorrow. Aiden finished the cabinet meeting, and Alan Wilson went home.

If anything, his face was more serious than before he came to Whitehall.

After going back and forth, Pamela Mountbatten was still waiting in the living room, waiting for her husband to return. She didn't smile until a familiar figure appeared, "What's the matter, and you are asked to go there on the weekend?"

Reaching out and grabbing his shoulders, Allen Wilson looked straight at his wife and said, "Pamela, take the child back to Perth tomorrow."

"Ah? It's not too cold." Pamela Mountbatten was surprised, not understanding what was wrong with her husband, "Didn't I already plan to go back in half a month?"

"Immediately, immediately, only Australia in the southern hemisphere is the safest." Alan Wilson interrupted with a serious face, "The Soviet Union deployed nuclear missiles in Cuba. If there is no agreement, there will be a danger of world war. At that time, the British mainland will be in danger." Within the range of Soviet land-based missiles, it would also become very dangerous."

Alan Wilson explained the ins and outs of the Cuban Missile Crisis, and said in an orderly tone with easy arrangement.

"In this case, the mainland is not very dangerous, why do you still want to stay in the mainland. Come with me." Pamela Mountbatten was frightened by her husband's tone, persuading her in a panic.

"Are you kidding? I'm a high-ranking official in Whitehall. How can I run away at this time." Alan Wilson flatly refused, and said in a tone that he wanted to live and die with the United Kingdom. My wife has three children, both male and female, and I am not interested in money, and now I am very content, even if the worst result really happens, I can face it calmly."

"You are crazy, you are a person who is equipped with bulletproof vests when you go to the colony, go with me tomorrow." Pamela Mountbatten teared up and grabbed her husband's clothes, "You are only in your thirties, and you are living a good life. How do you say that?"

"Honey, there is still such a thing as patriotism in this world." Alan Wilson told his wife to calm down, "Take the children and mother-in-law and leave, and take good care of them."

No matter what Pamela Mountbatten said, Alan Wilson had made up his mind and turned a deaf ear to his wife's words. In the end, the richest woman in the world threw herself into his arms and burst into tears, "You are amazing, you are not afraid of death..."

Ellen Wilson, who hugged his wife, patted her on the back as if coaxing a child, and said deeply, "Now that I think about it, I still feel a little sorry for you. I should have stayed with you more before."

The cries of the mother, causing the children to come out of the room to look around and whisper, "Doesn't that sound like an argument?"

"Of course not. I haven't seen my parents quarreling." Pamela angrily scolded her younger brother's speculation, "Maybe they hugged each other because of something happened. You don't think father looks angry."

angry? It doesn't exist at all, Alan Wilson's face is indeed quite strange, full of plans.

"You cry so much, w. The child will wake up." Alan Wilson's performance is almost the same ~lightnovelpub.net~ and began to comfort the person next to the pillow, "Actually, I also have a solution, maybe I can avoid the British Caught in a vortex and kidnapped by the United States. My dear, in terms of public opinion orientation, you have arranged for it for so many years, this time you should take action."

"I'll listen to you." Pamela Mountbatten agreed with pear blossoms and red eyes.

The construction of an information cocoon is necessary. Due to the real problems of the Chinese in Malaya, the local public opinion mainly emphasizes that Britain should stop the war, and any other voices must be suppressed. Alan Wilson will also let the local colonial government officially help.

At the same time, it also draws attention away from the Cuban missile crisis, and the same purpose is used in the mainland and other colonies. But there are no Chinese in other colonies, so there is no need to pretend to be a peaceful face.

That is naturally my Great Britain's sublimation to live the second life, and rescue India with unprecedented actions. As for the method, it is the same as the United States, using the slow-moving navy to delay time. The police will only appear after the underworld is over, which is very reasonable.

"Remember, don't believe any other news unless it is official news from the British government." Alan Wilson touched Pamela Mountbatten's hair, "Don't let the noise of fake news disturb your mood at critical moments. "
