British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 898: persuade the British commander

This is good news, but Alan Wilson knew that the blue-light missile with a range of 3,500 kilometers could not pose a threat to the Soviet Union, and the land-based missile Britain certainly could not put it on its own soil, although it was closer. , which could threaten the elite regions of the European part of the Soviet Union.

But the same British anti-strike ability is not the same level as the Soviet Union, so even if it has it, it cannot be deployed in the mainland.

If deployed in other locations, the range of 3,500 kilometers is not enough. If it is deployed in Kalimantan, it must span the entire East Asia to reach the Soviet Union, which requires a distance of more than 6,000 kilometers. And then to the European part of the Soviet Union, so the range of the Blu-ray missile is far from enough, at least a range of 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers is worth deploying.

However, the body of the Blu-ray missile is enough to launch satellites. As the high commissioner who oversees the rocket project, Alan Wilson immediately informed the Wumaila launch site of the idea through an executive order.

The variant of the Blu-ray missile goes in two directions, the first is to increase the range in preparation for land-based strikes. The second criterion is the exact opposite, reducing the size of the Blu-ray missile so that it can be placed in a nuclear submarine.

This was explained in the telegram, and Alan Wilson also informed his wife Pamela Mountbatten that he would visit her in Perth at a later date.

Pamela Mountbatten, who is pregnant, is not idle. While undertaking the operation of the Western Australia hydropower system, because of the oil and gas exploitation problem on Timor Island, she is talking with the Australian and Western Australian governments about building oil and gas pipelines. The oil and gas resources of Timor Island are transported to Australia.

Although they haven't seen each other for a while, the husband and wife keep in touch at all times, supervise each other, and promote common progress.

Alan Wilson is inspired to build a transit station for the UK that connects the world's mines and the two most densely populated areas in the world. From this point of view, the Malayan colony is the most suitable place.

Geographical advantage is the most significant advantage of the Malayan colony at present, and it is also the only advantage that can be used.

Don't think about the size of the population. It is impossible for Malaya to catch up with Japan in the short term. However, Japan's broken place and the loss of Hokkaido will become more dependent on foreign countries, which is good news.

The happiness that people can experience personally can be summed up in four words. This individual's activities are closely related. Why is the book number of Japan and South Korea in later generations very beautiful, but the people of Japan and South Korea always feel more tired than developed countries in Europe.

It is because of the lack of local resources that the cost of food, clothing, housing and transportation cannot be suppressed. Japanese agriculture is a hindrance. The sky-high price of watermelons is used to protect the interests of farmers, and it also requires Japanese citizens to pay.

Taxi in Japan are quite expensive. Even when women's boxing was popular, women used men to take taxis for them as a criterion for whether they loved her or not. Isn't the root cause of Japan's lack of oil and gas resources.

Japan's problems are almost all in Korea, but Europe and the United States do not have this problem. Europe has France, an agricultural powerhouse.

As for the United States, which is the foundation of an agricultural empire, the United States is incomparable in terms of food, let alone Japan and South Korea, and it is even lower than that of many China, whose total output exceeds the second place by a large margin.

The cheapness of American food is still based on a lot of waste. With such a foundation, inflation at 5% is a good thing.

Inflation doubles again, just like China, if you want to approach the food prices of Japan and South Korea, you have to continue to inflate.

After all, Kansas is a country that claims to be able to feed 200 million people. Other countries are indeed incomparable. Japan and South Korea are both happy, at least compared with Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

However, the basic conditions of the Malayan colony can reduce the cost of similar food. After becoming an industrial base, the only shortcoming is food, clothing, housing, and transportation. As long as oil and gas resources are discovered, this aspect will no longer be flawed.

The resource base of the Malayan colony determines that if it can be on the same level as Japan, life will definitely be easier than Japan.

The West Malaysia Railway, which started in 1957, was reported to Whitehall in the name of the completion of the infrastructure. Alan Wilson described an exciting scene for Whitehall. The colony just waited to collect the money.

"You asked me to jointly propose with you to absorb colonial soldiers to form a combat force?" Lieutenant Colonel Scones expressed surprise to Alan Wilson, who came to the door, and asked, "You two high commissioners before and after have not always opposed the establishment of war with colonial subjects. Army?"

That's right. Alan Wilson and former High Commissioner Gerald Edwards were both opposed to absorbing Chinese and Malays to form combat troops. This is because, after the Japanese army's rampage, the British rule had been washed away a lot. .

"It's different now, General." Alan Wilson put on a flexible attitude. "The garrisoned troops from all over the world have been overwhelmed by the British. We have a population of 50 million and a standing army of 800,000. With Malaya The importance of the colonies has increased, so we can't increase the garrison. Where can I find people, not to mention that some troops have just been transferred to Australia?"

"After this round of urban construction is completed, it has become an inevitable choice to absorb the colonial population to establish combat troops. I prefer to do this within my tenure, this is a very important thing, and I don't want to push it to successor."

Alan Wilson looked worried about the country and the people, "Furthermore, it is inconvenient for Nepalese to use it. With Chinese and Malayan-based troops, it is more reasonable to pay the military expenses through the colonial government."

Alan Wilson, who came prepared, said many reasons without stopping. Taking military responsibility was the responsibility of British India. If Malaya could not do it, it would not be a substitute for British India.

Of course, times have changed. Back then, what Britain needed was a huge amount of consumables to maintain Britain's world hegemony.

Now that world hegemony has been lost, the military responsibility of the Malayan colony is to protect the vested interests of the United Kingdom. Therefore, there is no need to establish a standing army of hundreds of thousands of people at any time like the British and Indian Army Corps at the beginning, and the Malayan colony does not have this manpower.

"The Malays and the Chinese each set up a division, with a total of 28,000 to 30,000 divisions. This will probably relieve our great defense pressure. We can use the equipment left over from World War II." Alan Wilson said Come up with your own ideas.

"Isn't it difficult?" Lieutenant General Scones breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. The high commissioner was still very restrained. We are considering adding the size of the British army stationed in Malaysia, which should be considered just right.

He heard Alan Wilson continue, "General, I'm talking about establishing an armored division, not an affiliated police force."

"What did you say?" Lieutenant General Scones was taken aback. "Alan, I don't understand. You should understand what that means."

"Of course I understand that the British Empire is an important force that the British Empire relies on when emergencies come." Alan Wilson did not feel that something was wrong, and said eloquently, "I have my reasons, and it is of great benefit to Malaya to try my best to cultivate it. , and the hidden danger can be eliminated.”

"You have to know how destructive it will be once such a troop rebels." Lieutenant General Scones reminded Alan Wilson of the seriousness of the matter with a solemn expression.

"The Malayan colony is a coastal colony, and the main cities of the Malay Peninsula are within the range of battleships. Whether the army is strong or not does not really mean anything. The sea and air power is in our hands, and there will be no changes."

"And on the contrary, after the colonial resistance movement after the war to the present, we should realize that guerrilla warfare is the way of fighting that makes us vigilant. Therefore, the affiliated police forces usually carry out low-intensity military tasks, but once the rebellion will increase. Colonial risk. Armored units with rigorous combat training cut off the habits of affiliated police forces."

Instead, Alan Wilson believed that it was less dangerous to use the Chinese to form the armored divisions and the Malays to form the marine divisions.

This is through historical reference. Taking the Qing army during the Daoguang period as an example, there is no doubt that the British army defeated the Qing army.

Similarly, the British attacked Afghanistan during the same period and was completely wiped out. This is not the point. The point is that during the Daoguang period, the Qing army quelled the Zhangger Rebellion and suppressed the Kokand Khanate, which had already declined in Afghanistan, and turned it into a great enemy.

The British army was wiped out in Afghanistan, and it was the same period as the Kokand Khanate, which was stronger than the Qing army in deterring Afghanistan. ~lightnovelpub.net~ It was only a few years later, and then the British army's record against the Qing army was a great victory.

This situation requires careful analysis. When the British army attacked Afghanistan, Afghanistan was in civil strife, and the Kokand Khanate was in a strong tail, much stronger than Afghanistan.

It can be thought that. The Qing army was in the combat comfort zone of the British army, and those countries of peace in Central Asia were also in the combat comfort zone of the Qing army, but the peace believers in Afghanistan were not in the combat comfort zone of the British army.

Set in the current era, that is, guerrilla warfare is not a comfortable way of fighting for the British troops stationed in Malaysia.

Indonesia's infiltration into Malaya was due to the garrison of nearly 100,000 British and Dutch troops, which ensured that Indonesia's infiltration would be ineffective.

This is already a grade higher than the original historical record of the British Army stationed in Malaysia. The original historical record of 40,000 British troops stationed in Malaysia has been played around by the Indonesian airborne guerrillas of thousands of people for a long time.

The armored combat troops that established the colonies, even if it was a rebellion, the British army was easier to deal with. It is not that the British army has never encountered armored warfare. There are more British troops stationed in horses than tanks, and there are battleships watching.

In the Far East Joint Operations Command, Lieutenant General Scones has been listening to the long speeches of the commissioners educated by Whitehall, and finally believes that this set of metaphors of the combat comfort zone makes sense.

"The general recognizes this, and I finally came here in vain." Alan Wilson, whose throat was smoking, was not polite, and took a glass of water directly from the commander's office to cool down his dry mouth. "This is a precious treasure left by France. Experience."
