British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1389: beauty trap

The role of the destroyer fleet is very important. Without the cover of the destroyer fleet, the aircraft carrier is really a target.

As for the British Royal Navy, it doesn’t need to learn from the US Navy, but insists on nuclear power. The national conditions of the two countries are different. If the United States can really build an all-nuclear fleet, then naturally there is nothing to say. It must be higher than the British Royal Navy. first gear.

But the U.S.’s all-nuclear fleet is impossible. The combat radius of the U.S. Navy depends on how far the destroyer fleet can run, not how far the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can run. The wooden barrel theory, the shortcomings determine the overall performance, not the strengths No matter how far the nuclear power runs, it cannot be separated from the destroyer fleet to act on its own.

"Okay, Secretary-General." Makins raised his hand, indicating that everything was on him, and watched the supreme authority leave.

Seeing this, Dennis Healey couldn't help but get tired of it. He is the real Minister of Defense, not the Secretary-General of the Cabinet. Is enough enough?"

"Disarmament?" Makins heard Dennis Healey's words, and immediately recalled, "But at that time, I was not the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Defense. Thought, that was a long time ago."

Yahya Khan, the leader of the Pakistani military, blatantly overturned the general election that had already had results. Although Saddam was cheating, he still pretended to have a high approval rating, but Yahya Khan didn't even say anything.

The congratulatory documents from the UK have already been sent out, but Yahya Khan overturned this decision, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the UK, which is unbearable.

As the prime minister of a major country in the world, Harold Wilson still feels overwhelmed by such a result, even though it has been discussed before.

Alan Wilson was in this situation. When he arrived at No. 10 Downing Street, this matter should have been discussed with the Foreign Secretary. It was aimed at Japan, and now only Alan Wilson, who is also the executive deputy minister, is left in London.

"Prime Minister, it seems that there has been a result that we did not expect." When Alan Wilson came, he happened to meet the Prime Minister's expression of concern, and immediately said, "We have tried our best to maintain peace. You can have a clear conscience.”

"Since you can't afford to lose, don't start the general election." Harold Wilson cursed the military leader Yahya Khan, what is this? What else can I get?

Alan Wilson knew that the prime minister was afraid of affecting the approval rate, but it didn't matter, as long as the final result was good, it would not affect the Labor Party's approval rate. "Britain has done everything. It is Pakistan's own problem, but maybe It will be seized by India."

"You mean that India will take the opportunity to attack Pakistan?" Harold Wilson pondered for a while. "Indeed, this possibility was conceived at the beginning. How about Indira?"

"Iron Lady with a strong wrist." Alan Wilson did not hide his opinion, and highly admired Indira Gandhi's style.

After several years, Indira Gandhi has settled the internal constraints of the Congress Party, won the support of the general public inside and outside the party with his left-wing image, and introduced some radical measures.

Restraining the economic activities of large consortiums, forcing the implementation of a new industrial license system, expanding production by monopoly consortiums, and opening up new products to establish new enterprises all require government approval.

In his memory, few people touch family planning in electing countries, but Indira Gandhi really implemented it, and it changed the propaganda and education during the Nehru period, and implemented it in a very radical way. Simply put, To sterilize people, 4 million people are sterilized in one year, the method is unheard of. Does old fairy Modi dare to do this? He was too scared to do that.

However, Alan Wilson still did not explain to the Prime Minister that the impact of the India-Pakistan war this time was that India completely adopted a pro-Soviet policy, and only dared to dismember the pro-American Pakistan through its tying up with the Soviet Union.

From India's point of view, India does not need an ally of a maritime power at all, and a maritime power is of no use to help India.

Later generations of India have always resisted the pressure of the United States and refused to condemn Russia, because Russia is a powerful country in the army, and the United States is stronger than the navy. Even if a Russian soldier does not come out, it will be useful. Even if the United States sends a navy across two oceans, it will not help India.

Even if Russia is only half of the national power of the United States, India doesn't need Russia to say anything, and it will post it by itself. Obviously, the Soviet Union in this era has the strength to attract India.

However, in front of the current British Prime Minister, it is hard for him to say that Britain is about to lose India. It is useless to say it, and it can't change anything. The national attributes of the United Kingdom are just like the United States. It is a maritime power.

After deliberation, the two felt that it would be better to wait and see what happened. We, Great Britain, have led the world for hundreds of years, so naturally we do not lack strategic determination.

Of course, Harold Wilson also agreed that the British army in the Middle East and Far East should make some necessary contingency preparations, which are still being carried out secretly.

In the apartment, Xia Meng was busy preparing food, preparing to show her husband a man of the same status, and beside her was a boy who led the way. The boy had black hair and black eyes, but his outline had some mixed-race features, and he complained that he was only doing work for a while. , "Mom, is this considered child labor?"

"Stop talking nonsense, you are my son." Xia Meng put on a mother's majesty on her face, and kept the spoon in her hand, stirring simple dishes, scrambled eggs with leeks.

The knock on the door just at this time made Xia Meng not care about continuing to be a cook, so she ran to open the door. A pack of wolfberries was handed in through the crack of the door. Alan Wilson said while changing his shoes, "Burn some water On this day, there are always countless things waiting for me."

"My son is back." Xia Meng reminded in a low voice, the red tide on her face showed that she was very embarrassed now.

"What's the matter? I'll be back when I come back." Alan Wilson didn't feel much at all, put down his briefcase and said, "Speaking of which, you should take care of it. It doesn't work if you always put it in Xiangjiang."

The head of the family is naturally dignified, Alan Wilson sat down directly and took out a newly published book in 1970, titled The American Emperor in the Storm, read it, and waited for dinner by the way.

In a certain sense, this kind of book can be seen from the name, which is a variant of the theory of the collapse of the United States. From this time to the Reagan period, it can be regarded as a period of high incidence of such books. The next time you want to see this kind of book become popular, it will be after the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008.

After a while, Xia Meng cooked the meal and came to ask the head of the family to have dinner. When she saw the book in square characters, she couldn't help saying, "You still care about Dongfang beyond ordinary."

"Where is the population size, you think I'm an idiot like Washington, and you take it for granted that it's okay to pretend to be invisible?" Alan Wilson put down the book and followed Xia Meng, "But I admit that your country's foundation is still very good Yes, I heard that there is neither domestic nor foreign debt, so it can be said that the foundation has been laid, and now we need an opportunity.”

Having neither domestic debt nor foreign debt is indeed a portrayal of a big country at present. Regardless of whether the internal and external leverage is zero, this foundation is good. Anyway, Japan and Europe in later generations are burdened with huge debts, and Japan’s debt is rushing to 300%. Now, there is no room for fiscal intervention in any situation. Even if the interest rate is raised by 1%, the interest rate can make Japan unable to pay back. Does Japan like negative interest rates? There is no other way.

The family had a happy meal. Allen Wilson lit a cigar, enjoyed the smoke after the meal and said to Charlotte, "You need to change your accent. Xiangjiang's accent is not uncommon. Next time I see you If your accent is still so severe, I will give you a complete childhood."

"Understood, father." Charlotte's brow was sweating, he was still a little afraid of this father~lightnovelpub.net~ and promised to change it in a hurry.

"I'm not an adult yet, so I'll call you Sir first. Don't be an example!" Alan Wilson is still practicing the role of a strict father, and he didn't give Xia Meng's son any good face. "In the future, you are not allowed to speak English when you talk to me. My Chinese level is good enough to talk to you. .”

After eating, it was already late, and it was time for Xia Meng to counterattack and reckon. She squeezed into the man's arms to complain for her son, "I think you just don't like our mother and son."

"Don't make trouble, his world will be wider in the future." Alan Wilson didn't mean that Xia Meng guessed right at all, he had only just paid attention to this education issue, and after he paid attention to it, he discovered the problem, such as Albert Te, I've been in Rhodesia for several months now, and I don't know what I'm doing.

Unexpectedly, the old London father knew that the eldest son was almost too happy to leave now, lingering among the tall, red-lipped and white-toothed Slavic hairy girls.

It can’t be blamed that the heir of the supreme authority has never seen the market, and it’s all blamed for Grace’s deliberate calculation of the boy who is not deeply involved in the world and full of curiosity about the world. Didn’t the supreme authority say that as long as Rhodesia doesn’t Independence and marriage are definitely not a problem, so what are you waiting for.

The endless wilderness of Rhodesia has become the best chasing place for boys and girls, and the day is short of being a bed. Although London is approaching the end of the year at this time, the climate here is not cold at all. Albert just Feel the warmth of spring and flowers blooming, as if you are in a paradise.

"Sophia, wait for me." Albert looked like a big licking dog, following his instinct to chase the girl in his heart, and his dissatisfaction with his father's strict order to consider joining the army after a year also disappeared unconsciously.

"Hehe, Sir, if he has nothing to do, he will be tricked by someone. He knows it must be very interesting." Grace muttered proudly to his wife.
