British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 762: national self-determination

"Is the Royal Navy in Tokyo Bay?" Smith hesitated and then asked, "Is it a demonstration or are we going to join the war?"

Despite this question, Smith thinks it must be the former? Would Britain intervene in war for another country? Isn't that a joke? The United States understands the United Kingdom as the farmers understand the fertilizer, which is absolutely impossible for the United Kingdom to do.

"The Royal Navy is only helping France to put pressure on it to win the North Vietnamese guerrillas not to act rashly." Morrison's answer was unexpected. The United Kingdom really did not have the right to fight for the face of the French.

The Royal Navy, which appeared in the waters of Tokyo Bay, helped out of the unity of the free world, and calmed the pro-Soviet forces occupying a large area of ​​​​Beijing, so that the situation would not continue to deteriorate, which would affect the negotiations at the Geneva Conference.

Smith agreed with this explanation. He also knew that the real Secretary of State Dulles, at the critical moment of the Dien Bien Phu battle, was facing the endless issue of North Korea. When it was time to talk about the Vietnam issue, the defenders of Dien Bien Phu could no longer hold it. .

The French are actually dissatisfied with this, and think that the actions of the United States at the Geneva Conference are too selfish. It is only because of the national strength of the United States that I can't bear it.

"Of course, we are for the unity of the free world." Smith was only Dulles' deputy. Dulles himself had returned to China, but at this time he also promised to take care of France's interests as much as possible.

Although the Battle of Dien Bien Phu has ended because of the defeat of France, it cannot allow the enemy faction to take advantage. At worst, we must strive for a division of the north and the south. This is a bottom line, blocking the two main directions of pro-Soviet forces spreading around the world, and at the same time showing the solemn position of the free world.

It's not a good thing for the current free world to really take off the French people's underpants. The US's attitude towards Western European countries also hopes to have some weighty allies instead of idiots who can't help at a critical moment.

Admittedly, there is also an arrogant voice within the United States that America's time has come and will be here for a long time to come.

But there are also voices who believe that in the face of such a big enemy as the Soviet Union, the advantage of the United States is that these powerful allies are better than those of the Soviet Union who have no sense of existence.

If Alan Wilson was here, he would definitely understand that history is not a simple repetition. He still remembers that when the United States was in power of the Sleeping King, American public opinion only needs to take stock of the advantages of the United States, and the three words are inseparable from the strong support of allies in the United States. .

In the face of an opponent who has grown up, this kind of remark is on the one hand fact and on the other hand has the effect of emboldening. Just like Britain before the First World War, it was willing to keep repeating the broad alliance of Britain in the world, so that the Germans should not act rashly.

But to be honest, this kind of allied system is useful and useful, but you can't expect to do death squads without your allies. In the end, it was inevitable that the United Kingdom would end up shopping with the Germans in person.

It can be said that Britain's participation in two world wars can be regarded as exhausting its national strength for hegemony. In the future of the United States, as far as Alan Wilson is concerned, in his memory, the United States continues to encourage its allies to be death squads, and hide behind to support itself.

But there is another side to the United States. The United States has a lot of military virtues. It often needs some countries that are not too strong to be stepping stones. The experts in attacking the third world are still Americans.

This provocative move in Tokyo Bay should have belonged to the Tokyo Bay incident initiated by the Americans.

The difference is that now North Vietnam can't have guns for everyone, let alone a few torpedo boats and the Royal Navy. After several days of contact, Alan Wilson knows that the waters of Tokyo Bay are calm.

The exercise of the task force, of course, is also useful, at least it can boost the morale of the free world. This was especially true for the French, who also controlled much of South Vietnam.

At this time, Alan Wilson took a few Australian newspapers to see what the public opinion of this country with the status of the Anxi Protectorate was. Unsurprisingly, he sang praises to the actions of the British Royal Navy in Tokyo Bay, thinking that it was a An act of justice.

The waters of Tokyo Bay are calm and the weather is not volatile. The Atlantic waters facing the UK, known as the Ocean of Storms, once sailed in a fully loaded combat state, as long as the waves are slightly larger, the deck will make people feel that the sea may be submerged at any time. , so in the design of warships, British designers have made the Royal Navy's ships at all levels have strong seaworthiness, which surpasses any current country at this point.

At least there are no consequences of de-industrialization in the current UK. The routine operation of later generations, where water is all small faults, does not exist in this era.

The task force supply in Tokyo Bay is also quite convenient, and the Xiangjiang River is not very far away. It is currently safe and can support a period of cruising. At least it will not be a problem to persist until the Geneva meeting has a result.

"Pamela is coming back!" Princess Margaret sat on Ellen Wilson's lap, bluffing to frighten her brother-in-law, pinching Soso with a small hand, not knowing what she was doing.

"I'm back, it's you who is embarrassing, right? What are you doing now?" Alan Wilson pretended to be serious, but the seriousness at this time was not normal. Who let the murder weapon be held.

"Go, it's you who seduced me." Princess Margaret sighed like blue, and kept on maliciously planting things.

An imperial commissioner with a promising future, but at this time, the princess of the royal family made him dare not speak. After a long time, the princess decided to clean it up. After a while, she wiped her hands and walked out, looking thoughtful.

The two of them did not pierce the last window paper, but they fell short. What made Her Royal Highness indignant was that this daring brother-in-law showed hesitation on this point, which was very dissatisfying.

The thoughtful princess leaned directly into Ellen Wilson's arms and sighed, "What should I do now?"

"I'm just thinking about what to do now. I didn't think I was a princess when I seduced me before." He reached out and tapped the princess on the head. .

"It's not suitable for Pamela to know about this." The brother-in-law and sister-in-law spoke almost at the same time.

Knowing that his wife had been busy with the biological company, Alan Wilson also remembered his original intention to make a little contribution to the British military industry, and began to get busy.

I, Dae-young, are not targeting anyone in the field that started early and didn't get much results in the end. I am a judge of ugliness in other people's aesthetics. After entering the 20th century, in addition to the armament in the naval field, most of the failures in the field of armaments were made, and there were few achievements. Everyone used smoothbore guns, and the British tanks used rifled guns is just one of them. example of.

He really wants to make the British military industry take less detours. After all, these days are different. The wealth accumulation of the United Kingdom has been exhausted through two world wars. It is like before World War I, using two strong standards to kill the German High Seas Fleet. Can only think.

Saving costs and spending a small amount of money to do big things will inevitably lead to the death of the British army in the future. He can't just watch a bunch of failed products enter the British army, and then retire after a few years of service.

It's just that Alan Wilson wants to help the British military industry to avoid detours, but it is not easy. He can't think of any more eye-catching works of British military equipment in later generations. Vertical take-off and landing is considered a success, but that is because the British The large aircraft carriers are retired, and the goods to be dealt with are produced. Now that there are large aircraft carriers in the UK, there is no need to consider them.

"I copied American weapons because of the special relationship between the United States and the United States, right?" Alan Wilson touched his chin, although he had only seen many photos of American equipment, at best he could copy a shell, but this is British The biggest problem with traditional weapons for decades, the things that are obviously made with good technology are surprisingly ugly.

In the end, the imperial commissioner made the following judgment: copying shells is not considered plagiarism. The technology level of the UK is not bad, and it will definitely have its own technical core to support it.

This is the fruit of Alan Wilson's work day and night before Pamela Mountbatten returns.

For the sake of the British Empire, what is the point of some small infamy for plagiarism? The design he first came up with is undoubtedly his original, so there is nothing to say.

When Alan Wilson reminisced about some armament trends and kept a diary to record it.

The war of words at the Geneva Conference has not stopped. The security issue of the Indo-China Peninsula~lightnovelpub.net~ and the consideration that the United States must stand on the side of France have made this issue a battlefield.

There is an imperative for the UK, without causing resentment in hostile camps. Alan Wilson, who was figuring out what kind of armament to copy from the Americans, helped the distinguished foreign secretary.

Foreign Secretary Morrison made a statement on this issue, starting from national self-determination, and speaking on the issue of the partition of the North and the South and the status of Cambodia and Laos, "Many former colonies have a very natural idea, that is, the territory managed by the suzerain. Naturally it belongs to them, the idea that Indians have it, Indonesians have it, it makes no sense.”

"While accusing the colonization of the suzerain country, while expressing its territorial ambitions after independence, how to deal with this matter? Our British idea is not complicated. We must ensure the independent entity status of Cambodia and Laos, otherwise we can't talk about it, even if the French are If you leave, the war will continue."

"The UK must have an idea for the specific measures." Molotov asked rhetorically after listening.

"It's not that the UK has an idea, it's that under the fair ruling of the international community, witnessing the independence process of the French territories. I think, this is not a very excessive request, unless the Soviet Union objects?" Morrison nodded slightly, "I believe that , the Soviet Union also recognized this move, all for the sake of peace.”
