This is the final solution proposed by the United Kingdom. Regardless of whether the two parties agree or not, the local British troops will withdraw. In fact, the withdrawal work has already begun, and the British troops in Southern Rhodesia will be withdrawn to Botswana.

When Botswana became independent, it had negotiated with the United Kingdom on the retention of military bases, and its army construction was under the guidance of the British army.

After Botswana's independence, Alan Wilson also focused on expressing his concern for this new country. The total population of this new country of 500,000 square kilometers is 700,000, not counting the 20,000 British soldiers and their families. Talented, with a model of resource countries.

Botswana has achieved nominal independence, and with Whitehall's emphasis on care, the living standards of the local blacks must be much better than those of the same race in South Africa. Whitehall has a lot of concerns. Since Botswana became independent, it quickly checked the national population of Botswana and established a household registration system to prevent the influx of people from neighboring countries. It is not insincere.

In southern Africa, where wars are frequent, life in Botswana is considered a ceiling, and the leadership after independence has also maintained a good relationship with the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is also stepping up the use of public opinion to create an information cocoon and shape local people's vigilance against other countries. There are only 700,000 people in a country of 500,000 square kilometers. It is normal for some people to always want to harm me.

What's more, Botswana's own land conditions are not too bad, not as bad as the countries in the Middle East. With the sparse population, it can be regarded as having the characteristics of a resource country. The whites in South Africa and some places are worse than the black compatriots in any country.

After years of public opinion shaping, the concept of frequent wars in neighboring countries and the wholehearted desire to reach Botswana has been deeply ingrained in the minds of the local people. Of course, Britain is an exception. While sharing benefits, the local British army abides by the fact that Botswana has become independent and does not interfere in the country's internal affairs.

The current situation in Botswana is also the original intention of the United Kingdom to copy it to Kenya. Compared with Botswana, a landlocked country, Kenya has the coastline of East Africa and faces the Indian Ocean. Now that Nyerere is more inclined to the Soviet system, Kenya’s position is right. very important to the UK.

At present, the negotiations on independence between Kenya and the United Kingdom are very smooth. If the Southern Rhodesia issue has not been resolved for a long time, Kenya is now independent.

The attitude of the United Kingdom has been shown, and the division of Southern Rhodesia cannot be changed. However, Ian Smith and Mugabe are still fighting over the amount of land. Mugabe believes that the whites still have too much land. , has exceeded the proportion of the population occupied by whites.

Ian Smith retorted that Harare, the capital built by white people for many years, was handed over to Mugabe's side, and should be properly compensated on the land. It seems that there are still disputes between the two sides.

Since the two have so much time, Alan Wilson naturally has nothing to say, otherwise people would think that the British Empire has become so difficult that it can't afford to eat.

When I went home this day and saw Pamela packing a suitcase, Alan Wilson looked at the box full of pounds and reminded helplessly, "Don't bring so much cash home, or people will think I'm embezzling when they see it." of."

"Exaggerated, father, who would believe that the richest lady's husband is corrupt?" Pamela retorted, shaking her little hand, "This is all legal income, which can stand anyone's verification."

"My daughter, you still overestimate the wisdom of citizens." Alan Wilson put down his briefcase, thinking that he had been clean all his life, and the cash in his wallet had never exceeded five hundred pounds, although the main reason was that there were too many banknotes in the photos. Going in factor, but really exemplary compared to the rest of the family.

"I know, I will never let this scene appear in front of you in the future." Pamela zipped up the suitcase and muttered contentedly, "I want to transport the tiger to the reserve."

"The Caspian tiger you raise may damage the local ecological chain." Alan Wilson persuaded, it's best not to do this, the issue of who has the highest fighting power between lions and tigers is not important.

I am afraid that the living habits of tigers may change in the grassland environment. Living alone and living in groups are not completely irreversible. If tigers live in groups in Africa, the destructive power will be too great.

"I've made up my mind!" Pamela said enthusiastically, "Sophia's family has the final say on matters in Africa. Whether she wants to marry Albert or not. I'm going to the Rhine Once the group army goes, this matter will be done."

"Why don't you go? Albert is now a second lieutenant." Alan Wilson sighed, thinking that it would be great if Arnold wasn't at school today.

It is also logical that the objection is invalid, because there are not many daughters, and Alan Wilson's tolerance for daughters is obviously higher. After comforting himself, he continued to follow up the work. Makins was in charge of the military tour group in the East and told him a piece of news. "They are very interested in the artillery radar technology and have already proposed to buy it. Is the "Fez" artillery automation command system considered within the jurisdiction of Batumi?"

"Does it count as the control area of ​​Batumi? You can see that the United States is sticking to others like a licking dog, so you know whether it counts or not."

Alan Wilson snorted softly, and then said, "The imaginary enemy must be the Soviet army. If you inform the United States, the Americans will definitely nod. Let's inform, don't make it look like we are secretly selling it."

A certain big country learned from the Soviet Artillery doctrine, and it is the second largest in the world in terms of scale. Of course, in this era, the second in the world and the second last in the world are similar in front of the Soviets, the difference between three hours and three days.

The traditional artillery method of measuring distance with fingers is called the eye jump method, which is a simple method commonly used by the army to measure distance.

The specific method is to stretch the arm forward, keep the thumb upright, close the left eye, make the line of sight of the right eye point to the left side of the target along the side of the thumb, keep the head and hand still, then close the right eye, and make the line of sight of the left eye pass through the same line of the thumb side, and remember to align the line of sight to a certain point on the ground, then visually measure the width from the left side of the target to this point, and multiply it by ten, which is the distance from the standing person to the target.

The principle of the saccade method is that the distance from the left eye to the right eye of a person is about one-tenth of the arm distance, and then multiplied by ten times the width of the measured target, the distance of the measured target can be obtained.

The Soviet artillery uses optical rangefinders to measure the oblique distance of air targets or the vertical height of targets and the ground. It can also be used for ground artillery measurements. It can be used to observe the distance between ground fixed targets and moving targets. ten times.

However, in terms of anti-artillery, European countries are more professional. After all, facing the direct threat of Soviet artillery, hand-held laser rangefinders are the standard equipment of the British Army. This time, the British artillery radar is also favored.

Artillery radar uses radar to scan the trajectory of artillery shells to estimate the position and point of impact of enemy artillery.

Compared with other range-finding equipment, the radar has the characteristics of fast detection speed, long distance, and all-weather work. Alan Wilson knew in his heart that if the arms purchase is negotiated this time, the laser range finder and artillery radar will be used in Vietnam. superior.

"At that time, if the maritime military exercise is carried out in the Gulf of Thailand or off the coast of Saigon, the effect should be good." Alan Wilson has even begun to imagine the war at this time. If the Royal Navy can threaten in the direction of Cambodia, it can be greatly improved. The relationship between the two countries, the most important thing is that the Soviet Union will definitely jump.

As he expected, the U.S. government has a flexible moral bottom line. For artillery radar and laser rangefinders, which are obviously directed at another army power, that is, the Soviet Union, it has shown the magnanimity of the free world. This is absolutely Do not violate the ban of the Paris Coordinating Committee.

Since there is no opposition from the United States, Alan Wilson is of course optimistic that the more things are needed~lightnovelpub.net~The British-made lp7 laser rangefinder and the "Simberlin" artillery positioning radar have all appeared in the procurement, so as to Let’s talk about the northern line of the Roatan Railway. The northern line should be called the Roatan Railway. It connects Rhodesia, the Kingdom of Uganda and Kenya, and promotes the development of the Victoria Great Lakes region in Africa.

The "Simblin" artillery reconnaissance radar is a short-range mortar reconnaissance radar. It is a second-generation mortar reconnaissance radar developed by the United Kingdom. It entered service in the British and Federal German armies in the 1970s.

It is mainly used for mortar positioning and shooting calibration. The detection distance of 80mm mortars can reach 10 kilometers, and the detection distance of 120mm mortars can reach 14 kilometers.

In the current time, it properly belongs to the category of high-tech weapons, but in terms of strengthening the army, only the Soviet Union can feel the danger, it is a purely defensive weapon.

In the purchase of beautiful men, a certain big country still expressed the stingy nature of spending a small amount of money to do big things. After discussing with the Ministry of Defense, Alan Wilson said that it can be upgraded to the Marconi avionics system for the export of fighter jets. The greatest sincerity that the British side can show, if it is not enough, it can only stop here.

Opening the door to military technology has also made the consensus between the two countries on Africa's development more obvious. Britain believes that the colonial era has passed, and a certain big country should show a mature big country mentality. This is beneficial to the mutual interests of the two countries, and such a sincere attitude has also won appreciation.

Finally, after several months of back and forth, this cooperative development plan involving both military and civilian use was finally released, including military exchanges between the two countries and the East African regional development plan.

"We didn't make much money in the military, but we made a lot of money on the African issue. Ian Smith and Mugabe haven't talked yet? The points are all divided, so what's the point of tangling up the details?"
