British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1191: Fruit of the decisive battle

Today, Western Australia, which occupies one-third of Australia, is in a position that has never been seen in a century. With the blessing of strong mineral resources, the first to bear the brunt is the rapid progress of Perth.

And the top of this kind of leap forward is Pamela Mountbatten herself. For a long time, she has been indoctrinated by her husband with a very basic underlying logic. This is also true of all scientific and technological progress, humanistic culture, and social systems in the world. .

Only two things are true, one is people and the other is land. All progress is based on these two points.

Australia has land but insufficient population, so the land is Australia's reliance, and the purchase of industries must be based on land, and Pamela Mountbatten did the same.

I have to admit that Australia is really a treasure land in terms of minerals, allowing Pamela Mountbatten and even the British aristocratic group to find the soil for rebirth. The jazz players have reached their peak in Australia.

Although Australia is not like the Soviet Union, there is no shortcoming in being able to fill the periodic table of elements, but some mineral types are still higher than the Soviet Union. After discovering a large amount of silver, Pamela Mountbatten discovered a huge gold mine.

God is unfair. Even in one country, the distribution of minerals in Australia is uneven. Although Melbourne was famous for its gold in the gold rush era, the bulk of Australia's gold mines is still in Western Australia. The gold mines discovered now alone have far exceeded the sum discovered in Melbourne during the gold rush era.

Shakespeare once praised gold, hey, what kind of gold is this. yellow, shiny, precious gold

No, gods, I'm not an idle believer; I just want some roots from you

Just a little bit of this thing can turn black into white, ugly into beautiful, wrong into right, humble into honorable, old into young, coward into brave.

Pamela Mountbatten feels that it is unreasonable for Australia's minerals to be concentrated at the east and west ends. It is impossible that the vast inland is worthless, but good things have not been discovered yet.

But even so, the currently discovered minerals are enough for the jazz lords who came to Australia to return to the glorious age overnight. The nobles relied on the land, and eventually lost to the businessmen. The current nobles still rely on the land. But it turned around.

"The British Empire is essentially an Asian country." I don't know who said this in the era when British India existed. It is really a wise saying.

Ian Smith, who transferred from London to Perth, was soon told by his obedient wife to her husband who was doing nothing in London, and also told that the female president had similar attitudes towards Southern Rhodesia.

"I really don't give up." Alan Wilson sympathized with Ian Smith, the white leader who has a deep love for Southern Rhodesia. As far as he knows, Ian Smith lived in Zimbabwe for a long time after he lost his political power, and saw the era of billionaires per capita in Zimbabwe.

Even in that case, Ian Smith didn't leave, and he must still have feelings for it. It's just that his feelings are based on not treating black people as human beings.

This sentiment is similar to that of white people in South Africa, which has never been the only developed country in Africa. It is nothing more than a gimmick to count blacks in total statistics and exclude blacks in per capita statistics.

Sympathy belongs to sympathy, Alan Wilson is still unwilling to help, how Ian Smith is willing to toss is his own business, but Britain can't take such a big risk and offend the whole black Africa to stand for him.

Not to mention a Southern Rhodesia, even in South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States only dared to bypass the sanctions secretly for the sake of gold mines. The end of the Cold War quickly abandoned the white regime in South Africa.

Pamela Mountbatten also knows the seriousness of the matter. She is firmly on the side of her husband. The development of British Africa and the Great Lakes region, as well as the perception of the Gold Coast, the value of these places is not worth letting Britain stand On the side of Southern Rhodesia, come show what **** blood is thicker than water.

Alan Wilson was very relieved by his wife's consideration of the overall situation, and wanted to take care of her, but she was not in Europe. That's okay too, as is pampering a lady of equal status to a wife.

The praise of the head of the family made Pamela Mountbatten feel happy, and brought this joy into the parenting experience. Take your children to play around Perth and experience the power of nature.

By the way, let's take a look at the private collection of the head of the family, all of which she packed and brought from England, and built a special exhibition hall for this purpose. The exhibition hall is in the Mountbatten Manor. Although the female president does not live here, she usually Let someone else take care of it.

There is an apple orchard in the back yard and a nice porch in the front to sit and listen to the harbor buoy clock chime and the beautiful whitethroat singing from the tops of the tall pine trees.

Pamela Mountbatten could not recall a happier time. These days, she goes wild strawberry picking with her kids, or searches the beach for beautiful sea glass that looks like treasure washed ashore from an old shipwreck.

At night, I watched the children eat popcorn on the veranda. On the veranda, I could see the lights of cars moving up and down in the distance like stars in the sky in Perth. There are five bedrooms in the manor house, and the two sons play a game with the cars on the road, guessing how many cars will pass by before falling asleep. The sun is abundant during the day, like a paradise.

I have to say that the life of the female president and the children is much better than that of Alan Wilson, who is like a widowed old man in London. Accompanied by dreams, but the loneliness in my heart is still unavoidable.

Only a huge piece of good news can arouse his enthusiasm, not the outdated internet celebrity that even the newspapers don't pay attention to. How far has the Cuban Missile Crisis progressed. He needs new good news to energize him.

"Prime Minister Eden intends to start a general election. Of course, there are doubts within the Conservative Party." Norman Brooke revealed this to his successor. "You also know that Prime Minister Eden is also very old. The Conservative Party has a There is a voice that considers that the Conservative Party’s defeat in the previous election was related to Churchill’s age, so there are voices of disapproval.”

"The election of the Conservative Party has nothing to do with Mr. Churchill." Alan Wilson laughed straight, "Actually, from the perspective of Whitehall, we are happy to see a prime minister who is not full of energy on stage, so he needs our support." Help, provide professional advice, and help him deal with political enemies at the same time."

"So from a personal point of view, I also gave professional advice, thinking that the prime minister's physical condition is not a problem. The leader of the Labor Party, Mr. Gatzke, is also in poor physical condition. In this case, the prime minister's age is not a disadvantage." Norman Brook nodded, "What do you think?"

In all fairness, Aiden is not particularly old, and he is not a hindrance to politicians. It's just that the Labor Party has been holding on to drug dependence, believing that Aiden does not have extraordinary energy.

In fact, as long as Aiden himself thinks there is no problem with this matter, then naturally it will be no problem. Even if there is a real problem, isn't there still Whitehall? Whitehall is happy to see a prime minister who obeys professional guidance and has no extraordinary energy exists, and can even exist for a long time.

"I think it's very good, Sir Norman." Alan Wilson agreed. At least Aiden is not a particularly bad choice. He thinks that Britain can exist as a world power. As for other Conservative Party members, they don't necessarily think so "I just don't know, when will the prime minister plan to start the general election?"

"After the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' meeting and the US summit." Norman Brooke replied, "The Prime Minister feels that at that time, with the support of the Conservative Party, it should be no problem to continue to govern."

In other words, before the general election, Aiden will hold a summit with Kennedy. If this is the case, Alan Wilson feels that once Kennedy makes any excessive demands, Aiden will not agree.

While the two were discussing what choice the public opinion would make this time, the distant subcontinent was also undergoing an ultimate test of public opinion. The Battle of the Roof of the World has finally decided the winner. The battle report from the front came, and the Indian army has fully retreated from the east and west fronts.

The whole of India is boiling, and people in New Delhi, the capital of India, are panic-stricken. Those rich people have chosen to flee New Delhi~lightnovelpub.net~ Those poor people who are unable to escape ran to temples to pray. Rumors arose on the streets of New Delhi. Some said that the enemy had already Occupying Tezpur, the northern gate of New Delhi, the army is about to go south.

The state governments in northern India have begun to organize residents to evacuate and blow up power plants, water plants and other institutions.

The whole of India and the high morale before the war showed a completely opposite appearance. The British ambassador to India witnessed the whole process with his own eyes. He has seen the morale of a nation disintegrate in his lifetime.

But he didn't have time to lament that the mud of the former colony could not support the wall, and immediately reported the situation in India to London, and asked the British embassy whether it would consider evacuation.

"Be honest and stay where you are!" Alan Wilson was holding a stack of documents and was about to go to No. 10 Downing Street. He told the chief private secretary, the ambassador of Wick Newspaper in India, that he was not allowed to go anywhere. To reflect the calmness of the UK, "If he dares to run away, Iceland lacks an ambassador. Ask him if he is interested in it?"

Let Wick send a telegram, and Alan Wilson prepared the vehicle to take him to No. 10 Downing Street. Although it was not necessary to do so in terms of distance, he wanted to maintain Whitehall's face on such a formal occasion.
