v2 Chapter 1289: Anglo-French alliance?

A major event that determines the direction of the world? Pamela Mountbatten was full of suspicion when she heard it. Based on her understanding of her husband, this kind of thing? Wouldn't it be a rocket ride?

Yes and no! Riding on a rocket is an important basis for a couple's relationship, but in such a public place at the London airport, how could Alan Wilson speak his mind? It made him look like a lustful evil ghost, although it was indeed similar.

Holding his wife's hand and walking out of the airport, the car was already waiting outside the airport. The richest woman fell into her husband's arms habitually, "Did the round table meeting go well?"

"It's okay, it can be said to be smooth or not. Anyway, we are not going to take this place." Alan Wilson's tone was calm, "The main problem is the political system. After the Saudis overthrew the Yemeni Sultan The regime is very concerned about it, it is almost written on the face."

"The Saudis are concerned. I remember that Saudi Arabia doesn't seem to be a very powerful country in the Middle East." Pamela Mountbatten felt amused when she heard it. "It's Saudi Arabia's turn to care about the British affairs?"

There is nothing wrong with the view of the richest woman in this era. At present, Saudi Arabia has a population of more than 4 million. In the Arab world, there is generally no population boom in the 1960s. Population is really an important criterion for determining the internal status of the Arab world. Whether the population is a dividend needs to be matched with a series of basic conditions such as the country's resources and land.

Why is Egypt the leader of the Arab world in this era? Egypt has a population of 30 million. Conscription can raise an army of one million. This is something that Saudi Arabia cannot do anyway.

This will not change just because Saudi Arabia has two dollars. During the Cold War, there were more Arab countries ahead of Saudi Arabia. Egypt, Syria, Iraq and even Jordan were more appealing than Saudi Arabia.

Even before the Gulf War, Saddam Hussein looked like a natural leader of the Arab world, and Saudi Arabia also bowed to Saddam Hussein.

Who made Saudi Arabia never known for its combat power? Pakistan is so poor, Saudi Arabia treats Pakistan with courtesy, and counts on the upper limit of the world's combat power of the Peace Church to help itself when something happens.

Allen Wilson just commented on Saudi Arabia casually, but Pamela Mountbatten is obviously very interested in Saudi Arabia, "Is there any room for entering Saudi Arabia?"

"The United States will explode, don't bring shame on yourself. This country has learned all the skills of the United Kingdom in terms of despicability and shamelessness." Alan Wilson flatly rejected his wife's adventurous thinking, "Now your group has become the United Kingdom. Don’t take such a risky move. At least for now, the United States is still extremely powerful. Speaking of this issue, let’s have a good chat when we go home.”

If you want to make Saudi Arabia, a pro-American country, uncomfortable, there are actually many ways. Many threats that Saudi Arabia can deal with in this era may not be able to deal with it in this era. country ahead of Saudi Arabia.

If Alan Wilson wants Saudi Arabia to keep a low profile, for example, if he spreads the statement in Iran that the Shiites in the world belong to one family, it will be enough for Saudi Arabia to be nervous. Most of Saudi oil is in the eastern coastal area. Iran is across the strait. The main belief in the region is not the mainstream belief in Saudi Arabia, but Shia.

In fact, there is an immediate matter that can be manipulated now, and that is Yemen. The main population of Yemen is in North Yemen, and North Yemen is where Shiites dominate.

Saudi Arabia is a monarchy and Britain wants Yemen to be a republic because the monarch has been overthrown.

If Saudi Arabia is a monarchy, while Yemen is a republic, Saudi Arabia is a pro-American country, Yemen is a pro-Soviet country, Saudi Arabia is a Sunni, and Yemen is a Shiite, wouldn’t everyone have a bright future?

Unless Saudi Arabia can bribe the United Kingdom with a billion dollars, otherwise, Alan Wilson has no reason to arrange the future of Yemen according to Saudi ideas, and there is a high probability that bribery will be useless, because basically Yemen and Saudi Arabia are not like the same kind of country .

As long as Saudi Arabia gives enough, Britain's position can also be flexible enough, just like Alan Wilson's previous mental journey, when there is no aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier is a living target. When there are two ski-jump aircraft carriers, it is not entirely true that the aircraft carrier is useless. After the electromagnetic ejection aircraft carrier starts, the theory that the aircraft carrier is useless is stupid and not worth refuting.

After the successful test-firing of anti-ship ballistic missiles, the Secretary-General of the Cabinet said, "The aircraft carrier is a living target." As long as his position is flexible enough, he will be invincible.

"My husband, you have worked so hard." Back home, Pamela Mountbatten took the initiative to give her husband a deep kiss, and then said, "It seems that the situation in many places is getting worse this year. Pakistan and India are also mutual Let’s be serious, the United States is also sending more troops to South Vietnam, not to mention Indonesia, the Australians are terrified.”

"At least Europe is calm. Except for France." Alan Wilson sat down on the sofa, "Our suspicious ally has been quite active in recent years. He has begun to bravely move towards the goal of a world power, and he has been secretly thinking about it. America's gold."

"Really?" Pamela Mountbatten frowned slightly and asked, "Then what should we do? Should we stand with the Americans, or?"

"This matter is more complicated. I haven't thought it through yet, but don't think that the UK has no action." Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows. In the 1960s and 1970s, countries that attacked the US dollar. None of the three countries in Europe, Britain, France and Germany, were innocent, and they were the first to do it. It is France, which does not mean that other countries are clean.

If you stand on the side of the United States and let France return without success, it can certainly be done with the current British pound settlement share. But the advantage of doing so is that the pound is still inevitable from a slow death.

Although Alan Wilson tried his best to protect the settlement share of the British pound, he even supported Malaya, a colony that was not dominated by the white ethnic group. But it also turned Britain's collapse into a chronic shrinkage.

Holding down France, the United States will still eat up the space of the pound bit by bit. The process may be more tortuous, but the result will not change.

So why jump out to block the knife for the United States? One operation is to make America great again? Let Britain be a follower later? Is this the meaning of Alan Wilson's work?

Sooner or later, the British pound will also have a knife, but it is just a matter of timing. The key is not to allow another person to take advantage of the knife. German. In fact, since the birth of the euro, we knew that Germany was the final winner.

Alan Wilson can't let the Germans take advantage, at least not let Germany take advantage of enough to establish the basis of the euro, so there are still considerations for this matter.

Because of the first-mover advantage of the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, the United Kingdom established a colonial empire spanning Europe, the United States, Asia, Africa and Oceania with the backing of maritime hegemony and leveraged financial strength, monopolizing the global supply of raw materials and energy. It controls the division of the world market, controls the channels of ocean trade, and controls the flow of international capital.

Gold from all over the world flows to London from the gold mines in South Africa, Canada, the United States, Russia, Brazil, Australia and other places. The Bank of England uses its gold reserves as the basis to create the pound sterling that circulates around the world, and then sterling capital and industrial products flow from the UK to the world market. In the end, the huge profits flowed back to London with more gold, completing the big cycle of international capital.

Even now, the pound is much stronger than the French franc. If you want to make a move, should you wait until the French are suppressed, or do you go with the French? This question requires careful consideration.

Knowing Alan Wilson's doubts, Pamela Mountbatten asked in silence for a moment, "Honey, is the Bretton Woods system unsustainable?"

"There are loopholes in that system, and it will be a matter of time before it can be maintained. In fact, our original suggestion was correct. Pricing commodities is the long-term solution. The United States disagreed at the time because the United Kingdom still controlled many colonies, and Gold was America's most powerful financial weapon at the time."

Alan Wilson said truthfully, "From the perspective of strength, our reasonable proposals have also been rejected by the Americans. If the Bretton Woods system collapses, I'm sure the United States will find a way to link commodities. Don't look at them in 194 I have been firmly opposed to doing this for four years. Is it important to have a face and money?"

"In order to prevent this kind of result, the British garrison in the Persian Gulf must not retreat." Pamela Mountbatten said for no reason, and then said, "I said, why do you want me to focus on operating Australia? In terms of iron ore quality, No country in the world can compete with Australia. The British troops stationed in Australia must also stay in Australia for a long time."

"Hmm, that's exactly the case. This is actually to prepare for the world after the collapse of the Bretton Woods system. It is not yet that step. If the United States cannot achieve a quick victory in the Vietnam War~lightnovelpub.net~ as time goes by , who knows about the sneaky over-issued currency in the United States? The French know this, and they make the United States very unhappy by talking about it everywhere."

Alan Wilson returned to the French issue, and then kicked the ball to his wife, "If it were you, how would you look at this issue and how would you make a decision?"

"Is London ready to remain indifferent to this kind of thing?" Pamela Mountbatten almost questioned the reliability of this government when she heard it.

"We don't know how much the U.S. dollar will be issued. It is impossible to stand firmly with France." Alan Wilson shook his head. Then it was the first backstab. If France took advantage and did not suffer retaliation, it might make some people in the country tempted. Now we don’t know what step France can do? Should I ask what de Gaulle prepared? Is it okay?"

"I suggest acting with the French. What do you think?" Pamela Mountbatten said her thoughts, and then looked at her husband.

"Oh, the Anglo-French alliance. In fact, it is also possible!" Alan Wilson heard, "Then you must be prepared now. The starting point cannot be in London. Switzerland is a good choice."
