British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1336: Overcoming difficulties

The top priority is to control people first. Alan Wilson still believes that a high commissioner can handle this matter. When people pay attention, Korean soldiers have the ability to treat civilians with heavy punches, but that is in the realm of South Vietnam.

Malaya was a British colony, and the Koreans probably didn't have the guts to make trouble on British territory. After a while, the telegram from Kuala Lumpur arrived at Whitehall.

His guess was not wrong at all. The crime against the nurses in the local hospital was committed by the wounded American soldiers. As for the wounded Korean soldiers involved, they obeyed the orders of the suzerain country to help.

This is not surprising at all. American soldiers are like this in any country in the world, including the United States. It seems that there is a movie called The General’s Daughter in later generations about the fact that the American army can’t control the crotch anywhere. Even the general His daughters are all victims, so it is no surprise that they appeared in Malaya.

Now it is not necessary to act rashly. He first saw how Richard responded. When the second call rang, Richard had already indicated that he would send someone to arrest all the wounded soldiers involved.

"Colonial Malaya is conservative, and you know that's what the colonies are most afraid of. Crimes against women are the most likely to inspire nationalism, and that's what the UK is trying to avoid. So you have to do something about it. As for whether to apply the Great Qing Law or the Peace Sharia Law, let the local judicial officials decide. The top priority is to restore the British reputation and defend local interests."

Alan Wilson paused when he said this, "As for the mastermind, first determine the background, if it is from a famous family, it may eventually be released under the pressure of the United States, but if it is a low-level person with no background, then don't be polite. In order to demonstrate the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, we will not publicly kill American soldiers, but they are still wounded soldiers, and it is normal to have some complications. Drug overdose? Alcoholism? There are no excuses."

"If the Korean wounded soldiers were to talk back to the local judicial officials in the colony, I would probably die." Richard also expressed his concern, "Secretary-General, do you want to execute the sentence publicly?"

"Koreans? Huh!" Allen Wilson said with ease, "Take all the soldiers who were treated in Malaya, regardless of whether they were from the United States or South Korea, and take them there for a profound education. Now there is another problem, the US Army Command in South Vietnam Do you know about this? Since you didn't suppress the news, I think you know. If the US generals put pressure on you, you are calling me."

Speaking of this, Alan Wilson looked at his watch again, "Come here, it's time to get off work here, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

According to the tradition of the U.S. military, once the U.S. military commits a crime in another country, as long as it is not caught on the spot, it will definitely be pressured. If the impact is great, the U.S. will definitely bring the offending soldier back to the country. This is not because the U.S. military is good at internal affairs, but because the rules of the special group of the military are different from other groups.

Alan Wilson can give the U.S. military a face, and will not publicly kill the U.S. soldier for slapping the face of the city on the top of the mountain, but this person must stay, and he cannot pat his **** and leave.

A mere soldier, in theory, would not attract the attention of the United States, so what if he killed it secretly? In fact, the U.S. Army Command in South Vietnam really didn’t notice this matter now, because Richard locked the criminals on the Koreans in accordance with the instructions of the supreme authority.

As for the Pentagon in Washington, there is no air traffic control for a soldier who is fighting outside. The United States has nearly 200,000 troops stationed in South Vietnam, and they can't control it. Now the Pentagon's heated discussion is whether to expand the scope of the attack, which is the most important thing.

The chiefs of staff also pushed for a more aggressive three-dimensional attack by U.S. forces on North Vietnam by land, sea and air. They took this recommendation so seriously that they handed over another memorandum to the Department of Defense reiterating their view that the invasion of North Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, including the deployment of U.S. forces in Thailand, had become necessary and that there was a risk of using nuclear weapons against a major power Very likely.

All of these actions, they stress, underscore the need to mobilize America's reserve forces now.

Lyndon Johnson was deeply shocked by the Pentagon's thinking, because the intelligence the CIA gave him was diametrically opposed, and the conclusion was that it was really impossible to win with the current war effort alone. As for several CIA proposals, including: building a wall along the western and northern borders of South Vietnam; laying mines in ports; large-scale air strikes; destroying transportation lines on rivers; results of examination of all these and other selected proposals Yes: None are sufficient to achieve the desired military victory for the United States.

An additional package proposed sending U.S. troops to North Vietnam, which Marine Corps officials estimated would require at least half a million additional U.S. troops in the region.

Lyndon Johnson ignored the dispute between the Pentagon and the CIA. He is preparing for the visit of British Prime Minister Harold Wilson to demonstrate the special relationship between Britain and the United States during this special period. It would be even better if the United Kingdom could send troops.

The President of the United States will definitely be disappointed, because one of the main purposes of Harold Wilson's visit to the United States this time is to mediate the US armistice.

Recently, the relationship between the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union has been developing for the better. After a telephone conversation with Kosygin, Chairman of the Soviet Council of Ministers, Harold Wilson decided to persuade the United States to cease the war in the name of the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union.

In fact, this is not the first time that a country has persuaded the United States to cease the war. In the past year, eight countries have called on the United States to cease the war. The United Kingdom and the United States have long maintained consistency in international affairs. British Prime Minister Wilson was very worried about President Lyndon Johnson's expansion of the Vietnam War.

President Lyndon Johnson expressed consideration for using nuclear weapons to end wars. Wilson persuaded the President of the United States to conduct peace talks through the hotline and asked to come to the United States for an interview. The Texas-born US president said no! That was when the Labor Party first won the election.

Now that there is no progress in the military operations of the United States, Harold Wilson once again started to persuade the idea of ​​​​persuading the truce, hoping that the United States will stop fighting.

Before the prime minister set off, Alan Wilson had already betrayed this purpose to McCarthy. Who made him a defender of the special relationship between Britain and the United States, unlike the prime minister who was suspected of being a Soviet spy. It is simply intolerable to use Kosygin to put pressure on the President of the United States.

Watching the Prime Minister board the special plane to the United States with expectant eyes, Alan Wilson stretched his waist. Now is the time to ask the Kuala Lumpur side whether the unfortunate isolated incident has been dealt with? This kind of thing needs to be cut quickly without hesitation.

Harold Wilson, who arrived in Washington, expressed his hope that the United States could cease the war when he met Lyndon Johnson.

This surprised the President of the United States. For the first time, he felt that the other party was judged by the CIA as a Soviet spy, which generated a trace of trust. Lyndon Johnson changed the subject and said, "I will not teach you how to solve the problem in Jakarta, and neither should you." Teach me how to deal with Vietnam. If you really want to help me, send some troops to help us deal with those guerrillas. Make it official that you will support us. If you can't, you still continue to solve your Jakarta problem."

Lyndon Johnson was very rude about the British Prime Minister's move to jointly mediate with the chairman of the Soviet Council of Ministers, and he had deep distrust. The United States may not mind some innocuous issues, but this is a large-scale war. Standing with the Soviet Union?

Alan Wilson knew very well that the Prime Minister's visit would definitely be a lonely mediation. If he hadn't checked the Prime Minister's reliability, from a third-party perspective, he might have suspected that the Prime Minister was a Soviet spy? How could you think of talking with the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union and the Americans?

He even thought that the prime minister should learn from himself, secretly kill the offending American soldiers, and then punish the remaining seven Korean soldiers with great fanfare~lightnovelpub.net~Defend the British to protect the local residents of Malaya from the fact of the violation.

This time Allen Wilson flew directly to Kuala Lumpur, ready to come to the scene to support Richard. Regarding the news that the American soldier Sergeant John McNaughton had unfortunately overdosed on drugs, he also expressed sympathy for the US Army Command in South Vietnam. War can really change a world. People, the cruel war has led to the choice of drugs in order to make up for the trauma of the soul, which should be taken as a warning.

He believes that the U.S. military will thank him for saving a soldier’s pension. The death standard for U.S. soldiers must ensure that soldiers are killed on the spot by the enemy on the battlefield. Falling to death while boarding a helicopter and other causes will not be recognized as deaths in action. Of course, drug overdose is not within the scope of death in action.

"How many wounded soldiers from South Vietnam are there in Singapore now?" Alan Wilson first asked a question when he walked out of the airport corridor and saw Richard approaching him.

"Seven to eight hundred people." Richard was stunned for a moment. "There are only a hundred or so American soldiers. We don't know why the Koreans won the treatment in Singapore, but it was agreed by the US military."

"It may be that there are too many **** things in South Vietnam. I am afraid that I will be killed while being treated by the South Vietnam hospital. Who can say for sure." Alan Wilson was a little puzzled, "The United States has nearly 200,000 troops stationed in South Vietnam. , South Korea has less than 100,000 soldiers in South Vietnam. However, the proportion of Korean wounded soldiers in Singapore is several times that of the US military. It seems that our American allies have arranged for Korean soldiers to overcome difficulties."

The ratio of the number of American and South Korean soldiers is two to one, but South Korean soldiers are almost five times more wounded than American ones. If the ratio is the same in the rear hospitals in the Philippines, it really shows that the United States has listened to his suggestion. The United States will never surrender until it is drained.
