British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 566: Security Intelligence Committee

"Colleagues say you are very reliable!" After restoring a brief telegram to Edel, Alan Wilson went about his own business, which was to establish an important institution for direct management.

And he will soon have a group of colleagues arriving in British Malaya. These colleagues are from MI6. It is absolutely correct to say that they are colleagues, because they are MI6's foreign intelligence agency of the United Kingdom, which is affiliated to the British Foreign Office. Minister is responsible.

Alan Wilson is a civil servant in the Foreign Office, and MI6 is of course his colleague, MI5 is the internal counterintelligence and national security agency, and is accountable to the Home Secretary. MI5 people can only be said to be Alan Wilson's colleagues.

It can be seen from this point that the power gap between MI6 and MI5 and the KGB is different. MI6 and MI5 belong to the departments in charge of different ministers. Just done the work of a general bureau under the KGB.

The KGB's first general bureau is the foreign intelligence bureau, the second general bureau is the domestic anti-espionage bureau, and there are more than a dozen general bureaus from the military management bureau and the traffic management bureau.

In fact, it is far from inferior. The situation in the United Kingdom is rather special, and the intelligence agencies of ordinary countries have the power to enforce the law.

But the British did not, that is to say, even if MI5 found a spy, it could not arrest it by itself, but asked the police to arrest it. Usually, the Scottish police are called to arrest people.

In the management of the colonies, the United Kingdom belonged to **** rather than rule, and seldom conducted direct management. Even in British India, there were 100,000 civil servants working, and they mainly relied on the assistance of local Indian elites.

British India is so important, let alone other colonies. It is incomparable with the power of France to manage the colonies. Now that a war has broken out in the Far East, as the commissioner of British Malaya, he must first maintain local stability.

In particular, it should not be affected by this war. This is the immediate priority. The people who came to Kuala Lumpur this time are from MI5 and MI6 to help British Malaya establish a functioning spy department. .

The ruling power of a country is nothing more than manifested by the four forces of the military and police.

The army, as a colony, currently belongs to the garrison of British troops. Even if it is necessary to expand the military power of British Malaya, considering the current ethnic balance, it will only absorb Malays, not Chinese.

Although this may be unfair to the Chinese, it must be done. Alan Wilson never thought that he must guard against the cheapening of British Malaya to anyone.

The same is true of the police department, so there are only two departments that reflect the power of the country's ruling power. Think about it from there.

Because British Malaya is a colony, Alan Wilson, as High Commissioner, has very great power. It can be said that he has more authority in Kuala Lumpur than Norman Brooke has in London. After all, Norman Brooke has a cabinet on it, and Alan Wilson has nothing on it.

With this condition, now he can build a usable intelligence agency according to his own ideas.

This intelligence agency must have the powers of MI6 and MI5 at the same time, and at the same time have the power of law enforcement. It cannot be a funny department that informs the police when it finds spies like MI5 in China.

As for the people who can be recruited by this department, first of all, they must have several basic conditions, be able to communicate in English without obstacles, and at the same time consider themselves subjects of the British Empire, so there is not much choice, and they can only recruit members from the Straits Chinese.

The Straits Chinese have long been spiritual British, but the number is too small to play the role of checking and balancing the Malays in society. But that doesn't mean Alan Wilson will forget about these spiritual Brits.

The Straits Chinese can be used to form a powerful department of intelligence to prevent, including but not limited to, Indonesian infiltration of British Malaya. As for trust, Alan Wilson is very optimistic.

Not long after, Alyssa entered the office. First of all, congratulations to Alan Wilson for returning to Kuala Lumpur. At the same time, she took out a batch of investigation reports on Singapore residents and people, and asked, "If they form a secret service, will there be any problems. After all, this Very risky."

"It depends on what this department does. If it is used to guard against Indonesia, there is no risk. As for threats from other directions. We can do it ourselves in the UK. This department is used to maintain internal stability after all."

Alan Wilson knew what his men were worried about, but he felt the risk was manageable. Because in his eyes, the assimilation ability of the Chinese is completely a matter of position, and it is not so scary. On the contrary, the Chinese are extremely easy to be assimilated.

He has a lot of examples in his mind, and he doesn't need to think about it from the Straits Chinese, because the British Empire is the first global empire, and the current world hegemon, the United States, also speaks English, and it is easy to find a group of fans all over the world, so Not suitable as an example.

Just look at Thailand and Myanmar, and Thailand has no Chinese in the strict sense. It is true that a large number of people have Chinese ancestry and know that their ancestors came from China, but in fact they are no different from Thais.

As for Myanmar, the Chinese in Myanmar are not a small group close to the border. There are millions of Chinese in Myanmar, and most of them are far from the border. Around Yangon, most of them support the Burmese government.

Even these two countries that are not particularly good can settle the Chinese, and there is no reason why British Malaya can't do it. As for Southeast Asian Malaya and Indonesian Chinese not being assimilated, it is entirely because the habits of the pacifists are too far from the Chinese.

Although the assimilation ability of the pacifists is outstanding in the world, it is based on the success of the agricultural era. The country of the pacifists in modern society is not strong, and the method of chanting sutras and swinging a knife will not work. The reason why he looks strong after decades is that he can live, not assimilate others.

Regarding the secret services of British Malaya, Alan Wilson's original intention is very simple, to be big! It is not that the CIA and the KGB have to be shouldered, but because large departments can increase the number of departments employed, as an official, Alan Wilson has a natural motivation to make a department bloated.

A few days later, intelligence personnel from London's MI6 and MI5 arrived in Kuala Lumpur, and Alan Wilson began to formally set up an important institution to directly manage the colony, and by the way, the war news was used as entertainment.

Britain will not send ground troops to join in this war, but it is very logical to send all support except ground troops.

Alan Wilson wants to make some necessary preparations. As we all know, in any memoirs about war, in addition to a certain major power, whether it is the United States, South Korea and North Korea, there is a massacre of civilians in the warring countries.

Alan Wilson wants to collect first-hand information to prepare for the future. What if one day he turns against the United States? These are all inevitable things.

While he was busy building the British Malayan colony, the war did not stop for a moment. After retreating from the southern bank of the Han River to Sangju on the Nakdong River, a full 300-kilometer retreat, on the Nakdong River defense line stabilized the situation.

At this point, whether it is the United States or South Korea, there is no way out. The Nakdong River defense line is lined up along Jinju-Gimcheon-Hamchang-Andong-Yingdeok.

The defense from the Wakan to the south to Mashan is undertaken by the 24th and 25th Divisions and the 1st Cavalry Division belonging to the Eighth Army of the US Army; The area was garrisoned by the three divisions of the Han army and the capital division.

The front where the first division was stationed was an open field 41 kilometers long, which was very unfavorable from a defensive point of view. Because the North Korean army made a detour to the Hunan area to capture Jinju, and attacked the gate of Busan-Masan, the 25th U.S. division originally stationed in Shangju had to be relocated to the Masan line of defense, so it had to take this open area. Left to the 1st Division for defense.

The Nakdong River actually formed a huge trench that protected about three-quarters of the area within the Busan defensive circle.

It should also be noted, however, that this defensive circle was too large, so over the next few weeks there was a constant exchange of fire between the two sides, with hundreds of small battles and a few more major battles.

In mid-August, the war between the two sides reached a climax. The officers and soldiers were all ready for hand-to-hand combat. The two sides faced each other on a 20-kilometer-long front, threw grenades at each other, and fought to the death. The high ground was full of corpses, and some corpses were also used as bunkers~lightnovelpub.net~ The entire battlefield became a **** on earth.

On this day, MacArthur, the commander-in-chief, called the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, "At present, the situation in Busan has stabilized, and it is impossible for the enemy to break through our defense lines. On the premise of retaining Busan to attract the main force of the enemy, we will carry out a world-shaking campaign. The landing operation, cutting the enemy's back road from the middle of the peninsula, and the conditions for complete victory in the war are ripe. The Pacific Fleet of the British Royal Navy in the Far East is also willing to assist, and it is served by a corps consisting of two divisions. The purpose is to cooperate with the Eighth The Army's counter-offensive in the south was coordinated to encircle and destroy the enemy."

A day later, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff discussed and approved MacArthur's plan, and preparations for the amphibious landing plan officially began.

On the same day, Alan Wilson called London to apply for the establishment of the British Malaya Security Intelligence Committee in order to prevent the surrounding countries from coveting British Malaya.

But Alan Wilson did not expect that the first news reported by this newly emerged spy agency was to tell him that there was a rumor in British Malaya recently that the United States wanted to help Japan rearmament and wanted to return the prisoners of war.

"Bullshit!" Alan Wilson showed the arrogance of the colonists, sneered at the news, and made merciless criticism of this baseless remark.
