British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1777: cash on delivery

Alan Wilson has high hopes for the 40th anniversary of the Queen's ascension to the throne, and it must be a lively event. After all, there are not many countries in the world that can hold a ship parade, and Britain is one of them. one.

Of course, up to now, the content of the Berlin conference is far from over. Take arms sales as an example, the T55 and T62 tanks are not worth a lot of money, but they are just antiques from the 1950s and 1960s.

But the modern-class destroyer is 200 million rubles, the glory-class is twice the size, and the cost is even higher. As for the typhoon-class nuclear submarine, the cost is 550 million rubles. It is a pity that the Soviet ruble is no longer the same as the dollar in the past. It has been exchanged for the second currency, but the purchasing power of the pound is still the same, so the UK can still bear the arms sales of Soviet warships in active service.

"We will not buy the active fighter jets of the Soviet Air Force. There is no need for the UK to add to this." Alan Wilson was full of confidence when he spoke. down.

The Soviet Union’s backfire and white swan are good things, but strategic bombers are enough. You can use the H6 and I can use the B52. Everyone can do it and have a bright future. Of course, the Vulcan bomber can also make do with it. The Soviet Union Don't expect the United Kingdom to lose weight in the Air Force. Alan Wilson estimates that half of the Soviet Union's 10,000 combat aircraft will be decommissioned within five years.

"The wave of decommissioning of the Soviet Air Force can also stop the mouths of domestic hardliners. Neither we nor the French are interested in the Soviet Air Force. The Soviet Union still cannot maintain its current scale."

"Add more." Fultseva watched Allen Wilson gesture with a pen, and blow the pillow wind from the side, asking for an increase in the price.

"Do you think it's grocery shopping?" Alan Wilson resolutely defended the interests of the United Kingdom, "Delta-class built more than 40 ships at a time. You Soviet Union built so many nuclear submarines. Now they have a headache when they reach the service life? I'm just for the royal family." The Pacific Fleet supplements the nuclear submarine force, and the British mainland does not need it."

Allen Wilson also wanted to sign a treaty with the Soviet Union to limit the size of the Soviet Red Navy, but Furtseva immediately refused. This must be an imperialist conspiracy.

"I knew you would think so, but the treaty is beneficial to you. Under the current conditions, if you can complete the plan, it will be regarded as super performance, and you still want to build new warships?" Alan Wilson remembers that Russia gave a certain After the big country built the modern-class destroyer, it has never served a warship with more than 5,000 tons.

Russia has completely stocked its surface fleet, and has entrusted the important task of challenging the hegemony of the US Navy to a certain big country. After this battle, the Soviet Red Navy will definitely have a hard time for a while.

The Soviet Army must try its best to maintain the update of the current equipment, and the Soviet Air Force also has a big task, but from the geographical environment of the Soviet Union, it is decided that the Red Navy can only be ranked last, so let’s tighten our belts first.

In this way, Alan Wilson listed three Typhoons, twenty-four Navag-class nuclear submarines, twenty-three Delta-class ships, eight Modern-class destroyers, two Glory-class cruisers, and one Kirov-class battleship Cruisers, two Kiev-class aircraft carriers, six Keresta-class cruisers, and one hundred conventional submarines, more than 700,000 tons in terms of tonnage, and the terms of logistical support after the arms sale of these warships.

Together with France's share of arms sales of army weapons and equipment, the UK will invest 20 billion pounds to complete this round of downsizing for the Soviet armed forces. This arms sale is cash on delivery. Alan Wilson hopes to hold a ship review in the UK At the time of the ceremony, the Soviet Red Navy will send all these warships over.

This is the arms sales part, and the rest of the capital injection to the Soviet Union in the next five years will be paid in installments through the acquisition of the banks of Eastern European countries and the British pound settlement share of the Warsaw Pact trading system.

To be honest, even the addition of the British pound to the British pound is still extremely difficult, but thanks to France, the Federal Republic of Germany wanted to pass a loan of 10 billion Deutsche marks in exchange for the withdrawal of the Soviet troops stationed in Germany before being held down by the British. Once it was replaced by Britain and France taking money in exchange for control of the Eastern European financial system. Although it cost a lot, it was worth it.

"If the negotiation is successful this time, the Khrushchev-era real estate will be demolished immediately, the retired soldiers will be turned into construction workers, and the excess rubles will be diluted." Alan Wilson did not forget to remind Fultseva, The Soviet Union has the conditions to engage in real estate to rejuvenate the country at the moment, because the expedient measures of the Khrushchev House have really expired.

The Soviet Union is just unable to stabilize the exchange rate of the ruble. After all, the Soviet Union has no financial institutions for decades, and the only option is to dilute the cash by real estate.

Alan Wilson is sure that there will be no problems. The Soviet Union has too much cash and insufficient products, and the reality is that the living conditions are relatively backward. This is a good move.

If it hadn't been bundled with the British pound settlement, the UK would not have come this time. The Soviet military equipment is not very useful to the UK. It is Alan Wilson himself who thinks it is very useful. All development routes are retained, and these purchased Soviet warships will enter the Royal Pacific Fleet.

The Royal Pacific Fleet will continue to assume the responsibility of its own giant ship nursing home, but even if it is a giant ship nursing home, it will not take much effort to clean up some countries that think they are famous.

The last item remains, the Soviet Union can allow the troops of Britain and France to enter Eastern European countries, but the troops of Britain and France cannot exceed the number of local Soviet troops, and there is another point, Britain and France must join the Warsaw Pact in name, even if it is There is one observer seat.

"This is what Mikhail has always emphasized. The financial industry of Eastern European countries cannot be opened to you in vain." Shevardnadze insisted on this point, which is not a big problem for France.

France has already withdrawn from NATO, and it can personally radiate its military power to Eastern European countries. Some terms and conditions are not a big problem.

Mitterrand also hoped that Mrs. Thatcher would agree, but apparently the Iron Lady hesitated, and Alan Wilson persuaded, "We joined in and messed them up from the inside. And the role of just an observer is not acceptable." , the Soviet Union must share power with Britain and France. Why can only Soviet soldiers be the commander-in-chief of the Warsaw Pact? Can’t the British be the commander-in-chief of the Warsaw Pact?”

"Besides, Warsaw is far away after all. In order to show respect for Britain and France, it is more appropriate to transfer the headquarters to Berlin."

Mitterrand's face changed when he heard that things were messed up from inside. This statement really fits the England he knows very well.

"Can the United Kingdom be a member of NATO and also a member of the Warsaw Pact?" Mrs. Thatcher asked in puzzlement. He felt that Britain did not have this capability.

"Mr. President, let me convince the Prime Minister." Alan Wilson expressed his meaning to Mitterrand with an apologetic face, and just give him the rest of the time.

Mitterrand heard rumors of a husband-and-wife shop in British politics, but obviously he couldn’t stay to witness such an occasion, so he could only leave with regret. Dog men and women glanced at each other.

Mrs. Thatcher couldn't help avoiding this gaze, but when she thought about what she was guilty of, just as she was about to pay back, Mitterrand had already left. Alan Wilson said, "Margaret, to be honest, the pound settlement is an extremely dangerous decision. It is true that with the current settlement share of the United Kingdom and the inclusion of the Eastern European economic circle led by the Soviet Union, the pound will become a veritable world currency, but for the United States, this is an intolerable change."

"The United States will attack everything in the United Kingdom with all its strength. Of course, the possibility of war is not great, but it is not impossible. Therefore, the United Kingdom must even make military preparations. At the same time, make this point clear with the Soviet Union, including France and the Soviet Union. support to do this. Wonder if our government is ready?"

"Of course!" Mrs. Thatcher is facing the pressure of a general election. Her support rate is only over 20%. This is almost a doomed outcome. He must increase the enthusiasm of his supporters.

"Then military ties in a certain sense, at least non-hostile military ties, must be established."

Alan Wilson changed the subject, "Since France does not reject this. France is a partner of ours in the trenches. We join the Warsaw Pact, and we can check and balance the Soviet Union's control of Eastern Europe from within. If the Soviet Union uses military means to repeat Czechoslovakia in the war It will be easier for us and the French to stop the subsequent changes."

There are risks in everything you do. The Soviet Union gave up financial power to Britain and France, and Britain and France will also have to pay the price for their food. Arms sales are one aspect, and the boundary between the Hubei Pact and the Warsaw Pact is also another aspect. Mrs. Thatcher thought for a long time and asked, "You also very much hope that such a scene will appear."

"I only know ~lightnovelpub.net~ It is impossible to use one mouthful of a country to get everything the UK needs, without wanting risks, but also wanting huge benefits. There is no such good thing in the world."

This is the final content. On the last day of the Berlin Conference, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and French President Mitterrand signed a document on Britain and France becoming Warsaw Pact observer countries and exchanged with Shevardnadze , has legal effect from this moment.

Of course, the three countries at this meeting must keep the signed documents temporarily secret, and of course there are some that can be made public, such as not pointing nuclear weapons at each other, the financial integration of Eastern Europe, and so on.

Mrs. Thatcher, who returned to London, announced the news and began to prepare for the general election. The investment in the British acquisition of the banks of Eastern European countries is indeed a booster. This has increased the support of Mrs. Thatcher, who has been re-elected three times. Of course Alan Wilson also played a beautifying role in it, choosing polls that were more inclined to the Conservative Party to reveal to Mrs. Thatcher, and the support rate was indeed increasing.

When Mrs. Thatcher was preparing for the general election, French President Mitterrand announced the signing of a defense treaty with Hungary, and the French army would be stationed in Hungary. The news shocked Washington.
