With an idea in mind, Alan Wilson lives in Whitehall again. In fact, he really has something to chat with Whitehall, such as with Edward Bridges, Secretary of the Civil Service and Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, about the progress of combating smuggling in Hong Kong .

The fight against smuggling was fruitful, through the line of Hong Kong, British Malaya and the British mainland. In response to the call of the US allies, it depends on the work of the Royal Navy, and of course the stolen money must be confiscated.

The progress of the work made Edward Bridges very pleased, and he said without limit, "Maybe our trade volume with China can be increased to 100 million pounds in a short period of time. Or to focus on smuggling, It will reduce the loss of 100 million pounds."

"Sir Edward, I think this is to be expected. The key lies in the protection of our military strength. This kind of anti-smuggling behavior will not be hindered by the enemy or allies." Alan Wilson replied comprehensively, "You know, sometimes allies The heart is more vicious than the enemy."

Edward Bridges nodded in approval, expressing his optimism about the promising future star prediction.

The so-called background is that even if the United States is richer and stronger than the United Kingdom now, it relies on the accumulation of the past century. There are also quite a lot of overseas industries in the UK. This can be seen from the 250 million pounds of assets in a large country.

Although Chang Gong has been kneeling and licking the United States, he has also signed a series of friendly treaties that dwarf the Qing Dynasty, but it has not changed the status of the United Kingdom as the number one investor in a major country.

From a monetary point of view, the British pound is the life and death enemy of the US dollar, the British pound area within the imperial preferential system. It is the object that the Americans have always wanted to eradicate. When British India became independent, the negotiation with Nehru also had to continue on the condition that India's imports and exports were settled in British pounds.

Compared with 1945, the current proportion of the pound in the world settlement market is of course smaller. But in fact, it is not much smaller. First of all, the pound area still exists.

Another very important reason is that the mainstream currencies in the world will not change naturally. Even with the 30 million square kilometers of the British Empire, the United States was able to compete with the entire British Empire as early as the 1930s.

But the U.S. dollar is still only the currency of the United States, suppressed by the British pound to the single digits of the world's settlement share. The so-called argument that one country can internationalize its currency by becoming the world's largest economy is laughable.

This kind of ridiculous argument Alan Wilson has always heard in his previous life. Before the First World War, the British total accounted for only 8% of the world's total and only 13% of industrial output, but its currency was stable. As the international currency; until now, the proportion of the British economy in the world has been further reduced, but the British pound is still the leading international currency, and the settlement share is not much less than that of the US dollar.

Before the First World War, the US economy was already one-fifth of the world's, and industrial production accounted for one-third of the world's total, but it failed to achieve the internationalization of its currency. It can be seen that without the financial and debt crisis of the international monetary sovereign and the hard work of the challenger, the status of the international currency cannot be automatically transferred.

At present, the pound is still the international currency second only to the share of the US dollar. In the future, the US dollar will definitely use more brains if it wants to bite the pound area.

In fact, until the oil crisis of the 1970s, the pound still accounted for one-fifth of the world's settlements.

This is also the result of the United Kingdom being forced by the United States and the Soviet Union after the Suez Canal War, resulting in the accelerated malaise of the pound area.

The Suez Canal War hit the United Kingdom because it really made the world see the United Kingdom. It is no longer a player on the same level as the United States and the Soviet Union. If it were not for the subsequent series of actions by the United Kingdom, the pound might not last until the 1970s.

If you want the pound to return to its peak again, unless the United Kingdom can bring the United States down, and it must bring the United States down in the form of war.

On the contrary, if the pound wants to become a general currency immediately, it is easy to go through a war, challenge the United States or the Soviet Union and lose the war, and the pound will be worthless immediately.

As we all know, the current British national strength is unable to fight a war of life and death with the United States and the Soviet Union. Therefore, the United Kingdom has only one choice to prevent any war that may discredit the United Kingdom.

For the UK, maintaining inertia can keep the pound in its current position, and taking a risky move will only accelerate its decline.

"How to use the Hong Kong to expand trade, you have to keep an eye on it when you are not far from Malaya." Edward Bridges said this, "It has been spread all over Whitehall, you and Pamela are getting married. Well, the day is not set yet."

"It's just set for August, and the exact time has not yet been set. Didn't I come here to report for work?" Alan Wilson politely answered Edward Bridges' doubts, and continued, "I hope my colleagues in Whitehall Being able to go together and knowing the connections of the Mountbatten family puts a lot of pressure on me."

"I believe my colleagues are willing to help." Edward Bridges happily recognized, even if it was based on the benefits of fighting smuggling.

As to when this question arose in the Federal Republic of Germany, which is already more than a year later than its history. Edward Bridges looked very serious, indicating that the United States was very tough and said that Germany could not continue in this form.

"This matter is very complicated, Sir Edward, as far as I know Hokkaido in the Far East is still occupied by the Soviet Union. Once we are tough on Germany, ignore the Soviet protests and form a Germany that leans towards the free world. Then It may be hit hard in the Soviet-occupied areas of Germany and in Hokkaido, didn't the Americans take this into consideration?"

"Maybe the Americans have considered it, but the Americans feel that the consequences are bearable after assessment." Edward Bridges sighed, "Americans think differently now than they did five years ago. It's different than five years ago. The former is more confident, even arrogant, whether it is the ruling Democrats or the opposition Republicans."

Alan Wilson frowned slightly, he did not agree with Edward Bridges. If the Republican Party still has Eisenhower as its candidate, then America is still sane.

Don't look at McCarthy as a Republican congressman, but the change in Republican and Democratic tendencies has only just begun.

Although Eisenhower was a soldier and a senior American general in the world wars, Eisenhower can be said to be the last generation of traditional Republican presidents.

During the Eisenhower era, the situation in the United States and the Soviet Union did not deteriorate much. Even at the end of Eisenhower's term, Americans believed that Eisenhower had not played a role in containing the expansion of Soviet influence.

Some even say that the United States lost more during the Eisenhower era than the entire Second World War.

During his tenure in office, Eisenhower did not express diabolical hostility to the Soviet camp. On the contrary, he focused on building the United States in accordance with the ideas of traditional Republicans.

The American interstate highway was promoted by Eisenhower. The construction of the interstate highway also standardized the road signs and design standards of American roads, and thus produced a series of unprecedented scientific researches such as fire simulation in tunnels.

Although Eisenhower was a rare senior general in the U.S. military as president, he did not make any moves that would intensify the international situation. The more famous action also fell on the head of the United Kingdom, that is, the Suez Canal War.

"Would it be that Truman paved the way for the Democratic Party in order to save his sluggish approval rating? You must know that after MacArthur returned to China, he made Truman disgraced. Now it seems that a military boss and a president are both lose-lose." Alan Wilson said: Determined, "Is there such a possibility?"

"There is such a possibility, politics." Edward Bridges smiled bitterly, "Every country is the same, and so is the United States."

"I agree with the German saying that national competition means less mistakes than anyone else." Alan Wilson sighed. He had a feeling that as a result of his efforts, NATO did not appear, and the Federal Republic of Germany did not exist. The situation on the European side is less tense than it was at the same time in history.

But this surface cooling situation seems to be disappearing soon, and the blocked volcano may delay the eruption more violently.

Throughout July, while Alan Wilson was preparing for the wedding, there were two other things: the peninsula entered the rhythm of chatting and talking, and the negotiations between the United States, Britain and France on the European side of the three-country occupied area were intensifying.

The most determined attitude is France, which combines the two issues of the merger of the occupied territories and the military alliance. The President of the French Council of Ministers, René Plevin, launched the Pleven program. The content of the plan includes the establishment of a European defense community by the countries of Western Europe, and the European Army will be formed by the troops provided by the countries; the established German coalition government will join the European Army~lightnovelpub.net~ but shall not act alone, and shall not establish the Ministry of Defense, the National Defense Forces and the General Staff Headquarters.

In order to re-form a coalition government as soon as possible, the Germans agreed to the French plan, as long as the occupied territories were merged.

But the Americans didn't like this plan very much, thinking that it was France trying to get rid of the United States.

Alan Wilson, who got the latest progress from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, suggested to Sir Ismay, Permanent Under Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, "The biggest headache for France now is that the combat response in Vietnam is very difficult. Let's communicate with France and let France use the United States to increase Great aid to France to stop the expansion of communism in Vietnam in exchange for abandoning the Priven plan. After all, we need the American garrison to stand up to the Soviet ground forces.”

"We can also take the initiative to mediate between the United States and France, and propose the United States' assistance to France's military operations in Vietnam in exchange for French concessions. Sometimes the United Kingdom needs to work more directly for the unity of its allies."

Alan Wilson is eager to try, this is an opportunity to pull the United States into Vietnam. If it is done, it will not only help France, but also allow the United States to intervene in Vietnam.

This is simply killing two birds with one stone. Before the Korean War was over, Alan Wilson found the next battlefield for the United States to reflect the majesty of world hegemony.
