"Alan, you are also familiar with the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." After two glasses of wine, Markins also changed his name from Sir Wilson to a more friendly name, and asked questions about his work, such as diplomatic work. adjustment in what direction.

"I've been concerned about the Falkland issue. There's nothing left." Alan Wilson answered half-truths.

To say that there are still other problems, after all, it is foreign-related work. For example, Alan Wilson has archived the plan of a nuclear strike against a major country. This is very normal. Once a plan is made, it does not have to be implemented. Making a plan is just a precautionary measure.

Just like the United States also formulated various plans in World War II. The orange plan was used to deal with Japan, the black plan was used to deal with Germany, the gold plan was used to deal with France, and the red plan was used to go to war with the United Kingdom. The comprehensive two-color plan involves facing the alliance. war, such as the hypothetical battle of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance.

Even Duke Chang's artillery party didn't let it go. He specially formulated a yellow plan to fight the artillery party, and he looked down on Changgong very much.

The most prepared is the white plan, which is used to deal with riots in the United States, including but not limited to blacks.

Alan Wilson believes that the military of all countries in the world have also formulated combat plans to deal with enemies or allies. This is very normal, and it is abnormal if they are not formulated, which shows that the military is dereliction of duty.

Malaya makes plans to go to war with Indonesia every year, so many that Alan Wilson may not be able to move them.

The two drank the whisky and said goodbye to each other. London was different from the colony, and Alan Wilson was quite restrained.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Foreign Secretary did not come back, Alan Wilson realized that he was in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and left a mark of his own times. He borrowed this free time to communicate with Mountbatten, Commander-in-Chief of the British Armed Forces, about the time when the time was right. , the deployment of nuclear weapons in the Malayan colony.

On this matter, Marshal Mountbatten thought that he was not ready to work in the diplomatic field. Now there is no such problem, and the son-in-law is already the permanent deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so what is the problem?

As early as the Malayan Colony Commissioner, he was preparing for the Malayan colony to stockpile nuclear weapons. Military airfields in the Malayan colony have been refurbished ahead of schedule, and even the bases for missile silos have been selected.

"Actually, it's about time. The value of the Far East colonies has now been recognized by the cabinet." Mountbatten nodded after knowing the intention of his son-in-law, "Just in time, the Redbeard tactical nuclear bomb has been successfully developed, and it is suitable for a wide range of applications, whether it is the Navy or the Navy. The Air Force has rated it well, in fact, the Cabinet has discussed before, sending 48 Redbeard tactical nuclear bombs to the Malayan colony for deployment to protect the colony's security."

The Redbeard tactical nuclear weapon in the mouth of Marshal Mountbatten is also the first nuclear weapon that can be carried by naval carrier-based aircraft.

It can be used on a wide range of platforms: from the Air Force's Canberra and 3V bombers, to the Navy's Marauders, Scimitars and Sea Mosquitos. The bomb uses a uranium-plutonium mixed core, the whole bomb is 3.66 meters long, 0.71 meters in diameter, and weighs 900 kilograms. The MK1 type is equivalent to 15,000 tons, and the MK2 type is equivalent to 25,000 tons.

"Although it's not an ICBM, it's better than nothing." Alan Wilson told the truth that he was not satisfied. How powerful can tactics and weapons be? Get a few three or four million tons of hydrogen bombs, and this thing is not the same level.

But unfortunately, the blue light missile has not been fully developed yet. This so-called failure to develop it refers to the part with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, and its reliability is still insufficient. Of course, the signal with a range of 8,000 kilometers is already reliable.

It's just that the range of 8,000 kilometers is not enough. If you want to threaten the Soviet Union, the range must be at least 10,000 kilometers.

And 10,000 kilometers is also a bottom line. If the UK cannot prove that it can have ICBMs with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, Australia may also question the old father. Everyone has ICBMs with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, but you don’t?

Blindingly expressed the idea that the United States has the United Kingdom as well. Marshal Mountbatten couldn't help shaking his head, "It is difficult to persuade the cabinet to deploy nuclear weapons overseas. The current nuclear submarines, but also depends on whether the submarine-launched version of the blue-light missile can satisfy the Navy. ."

"This kind of thing is related to the fate of the British Empire, even if it is close to using one's own." Alan Wilson expounded solemnly, "Even the closest allies can't believe in this kind of thing, who doesn't know the United States The real idea of ​​​​is to hope that the colonial empire will disintegrate quickly, and the sterling area will disappear as soon as possible?"

That is to say, Eisenhower still has the last trace of the isolationism of the old Republicans. When Eisenhower steps down and the reorganization of the Republican Party and the Democratic Party is completed, there will be no isolationism in these two parties.

The UK’s nuclear submarines have already started construction. Of course, the UK is also very clear that nuclear submarines are used to save lives and have advantages that conventional submarines do not have. Unlike surface warships, the concealment of nuclear submarines is the biggest threat. Nuclear power and conventional power are not the same matter.

When it comes to this issue, Alan Wilson has something to say, suggesting that his father-in-law try to sell the conventional submarines of the Royal Navy to Portugal, "The oil resources in the Gulf of Guinea have caused a lot of capital development, and the offshore Angola is the first place to discover oil, and now Salazar The government has already tasted the sweetness, and the time is right."

Of course, the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom also serves conventional submarines. During World War II, the German waves were famous, but the Royal Navy, as an old naval power, also had a huge submarine combat force.

Mainly large and medium-sized submarines, the more distinctive technical design of British submarines is to arrange additional external torpedo tubes in the non-pressure hull to improve the attack capability.

The British submarines mostly focus on scattered safari during operations. The main combat areas are in the Norwegian Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. It is particularly worth mentioning that the British submarines have also sank as many as 35 enemy submarines, and have also created The only underwater record of sinking a submarine in World War II laid the foundation for the post-war underwater attack tactics.

Arguably, the British Navy is the only navy that has a clear idea of ​​how attack submarines should operate. It's just that no idea is useless without money. The United States can spend a little more money to figure out the idea.

"The Royal Navy still has thirteen Tutankhamun-class submarines. If the Portuguese government is interested, it's not impossible to sell them." Marshal Mountbatten narrowed his eyes and revealed to his son-in-law, "Of course I know in my heart that you are Seeing that the Portuguese government is rich because of oil development, it helps Salazar to stabilize Goa's security. But it doesn't matter, the UK does not pay so much attention to the sale of warships like the United States. Aircraft carriers can be sold, and conventional submarines can't be sold. of?"

Marshal Mountbatten was open to the sale of active Royal Navy warships, and Britain sold many battleships after World War I. If it weren't for the fact that the battleships were now behind the times, that round would have been basking in the Malayan colony?

"I asked the ambassador to Portugal to talk to the Salazar government. After all, Goa is important, both for Portugal and the United Kingdom." Alan Wilson was overjoyed, as his father-in-law said, the aircraft carrier can be sold, and it is not enough. A conventional submarine?

The tonnage of Tutankhamun-class submarines is 1,500 tons, which is a fairly advanced model among the submarines before the war. If you do some modifications, it will be fine in twenty years of service.

The important thing is that it is very suitable for a country like Portugal. Although the tonnage of the newly built submarine is larger, it does not meet the original intention of using good steel on the blade. The current construction cost is different from the original, and the price is naturally different.

Now that the UK is building nuclear attack submarines, it makes sense to sell some conventional submarines back.

"What is Pamela doing recently? Don't come to see Pamela!" Marshal Mountbatten hadn't seen his daughter for a long time, and now he actually asked his son-in-law who had just returned to China.

"She has a wide range of business, and she is really busy every day." Ellen Wilson said embarrassedly, your daughter is counting on you to take care of the child to reduce the burden. But the reason he said is also true. His wife does have a big business, and it takes a lot of time to read reports from various places every day.

Leaving Marshal Mountbatten's office, Alan Wilson thought, did he tell his wife about his father-in-law's thoughts? From the perspective of filial piety, this should be done, but there is no so-called filial piety in the UK, and specific matters still need to be considered on a specific basis, and cannot be generalized.

"Isn't it good where my daughter is, and can accompany her parents." Pamela Mountbatten listened to her husband's retelling, and smiled powerfully, "I also think about the life of my parents, and Pamela brings my parents. Some laughter."

"If you don't take into account the fact that your sister Patricia has four children, there is some truth to what you said." Alan Wilson commented on the father and son of the parents from an objective point of view~lightnovelpub.net ~ Immediately put the fried egg in my mouth, um, not bad...

Pamela Mountbatten rolled her eyes at her husband, "Are you Patricia's husband? Or my husband, which side are you on?"

The Foreign Secretary, Harold Wilson, is finally about to complete his glorious trip to Egypt and return to his loyal Foreign Office headquarters.

Alan Wilson was, of course, ready, prepared for the hype of the Foreign Secretary's paltry exploits, and walked into the Foreign Office to ask what was fun.

Facing the question from his immediate boss, Dixon thought for a moment and said, "There is news from the French side that the de Gaulle government has established a new department."

"What's so funny." Alan Wilson didn't want to keep commenting, so he lit a cigarette.

"The name of this department is the French Overseas Assets Management Committee!" Dixon replied 1510.

Cough cough... Alan Wilson felt that the smoke raised his throat a bit, and he coughed as he said, "I must express my strongest objection with the strongest original words. Shameless, despicable, shameful plagiarism."
