"Alan, you are familiar with the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." After two glasses of wine, Maggins also changed his address from Sir Wilson to a more friendly name, asking about work issues, such as the status of diplomatic work. What direction to adjust.

"I was concerned about the Falkland issue. There is nothing left." Alan Wilson replied half-truthfully.

There are still problems in other aspects. After all, it is foreign-related work. For example, Alan Wilson archived a plan to launch a nuclear strike against a certain major country. This is very normal. A plan does not necessarily have to be implemented. Making a plan is just a rainy day.

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 fight against Britain. The comprehensive two-color plan involved facing the alliance war, such as the hypothetical battle of the Anglo-Japanese alliance.

Even Chang Gong's cannon party was not spared, and he specially formulated a dirty plan to start a war with the cannon party, so he looked down on Chang Gong 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 various countries in the current world have also formulated combat plans to deal with the enemy or allies. This is very normal.

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

The two bid farewell to each other after drinking the whiskey. London is different from the colonies, and Alan Wilson is quite restrained.

Taking advantage of the absence of the Foreign Secretary, Alan Wilson experienced a promise in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and left his own imprint of the times. He took advantage of this free time to exchange ideas with Mountbatten, the British commander-in-chief. , the deployment of nuclear weapons in colonial Malaya.

Before this matter, Marshal Mountbatten believed that he was not yet qualified for work in the diplomatic field. Now there is no such problem, and the son-in-law is already the executive deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so what is the problem?

As early as when he was the Colonial Commissioner of Malaya, he was preparing for the stockpiling of nuclear weapons in the Malaya colony. Military airfields in Colonial Malaya have been refurbished ahead of time, and bases for missile silos have even been selected.

"Actually, it's about time. The value of the Far East colonies has now been recognized by the cabinet." Knowing his son-in-law's intentions, Mountbatten nodded and said, "It just so happens that the Red Beard tactical nuclear bomb has been successfully developed and is widely applicable, whether it is the navy or the The air force has a good evaluation, in fact, the cabinet has discussed before, to send 48 red beard tactical nuclear bombs to the colony of Malaya for deployment to protect the security of the colony.”

The Red Beard Tactical Nuclear Weapon, as Marshal Mountbatten called it, was also the first nuclear weapon that could be carried by a naval carrier-based aircraft.

Its platform is very wide: from the Air Force's Canberra and 3V bombers, to the Navy's Marauder, Scimitar and Sea Mosquito. 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 has an equivalent of 15,000 tons, and the MK2 type has an equivalent of 25,000 tons.

"Although it is not an intercontinental missile, it is better than nothing." Alan Wilson told the truth, he is not satisfied, how powerful are tactics and weapons? Getting a few hydrogen bombs of three or four million tons is not at the same level as this thing.

But unfortunately, the blue light missile has not been fully developed. This so-called not successfully developed 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, you need a range of at least 10,000 kilometers.

And 10,000 kilometers is also a bottom line. If Britain can't prove that it can have an intercontinental missile with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, Australia may also question the old father. Everyone has an intercontinental missile with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, but you don't have one?

In a roundabout way, he expressed the idea that the United States should also have the United Kingdom. Marshal Mountbatten couldn't help shaking his head, "It is very difficult to persuade the cabinet to deploy nuclear weapons overseas. The nuclear submarines currently manufactured depend 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 use your own." Alan Wilson explained solemnly, "Even the closest ally can't trust this kind of thing. Who doesn't know the United States? What do you really think, is that you hope that the colonial empire will disintegrate quickly and the pound zone 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 Republican Party and the Democratic Party complete their reorganization, there will be no isolationism in these two parties.

British nuclear submarines have already started construction. Of course, the British are 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. thing.

Speaking of this issue, Alan Wilson said something else, suggesting that his father-in-law try to sell the Royal Navy's conventional submarines to Portugal, "The oil resources in the Gulf of Guinea have attracted a lot of money to develop, and the offshore of Angola is the place where oil was first discovered. Now Salazar The government has tasted the sweetness, and it is time."

Of course, the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom also serves conventional submarines. During World War II, the German waves were of course well-known. As a veteran naval power, the Royal Navy also has 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 non-pressure-resistant shells to improve attack capabilities.

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

It can be said that the British Navy is the only navy that has a clear idea of ​​how attacking nuclear submarines should operate. It’s just that no ideas are useless without money. The United States can spend a little more money to think through ideas.

"The Royal Navy still has 13 Tutankhamun-class submarines. If the Portuguese government is interested, it is 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 got rich because of oil development, it helped Salazar to stabilize the security of Goa. But it doesn’t matter. The UK is not as particular about selling warships as the United States. Aircraft carriers can be sold, and conventional submarines can’t be sold. of?"

Admiral Mountbatten was open to the sale of the Royal Navy's active warships. After World War I, Britain sold many battleships. If it weren't for the battleships that are now behind the times, that round would have to bask in the sun in the Malaya colonies?

"I'll ask the ambassador to Portugal to talk to the Salazar government. After all, Goa is important, both to Portugal and the UK." A conventional submarine?

The Tutankhamun-class submarine has a tonnage of 1,500 tons, which is considered a very advanced model among pre-war submarines. If some modifications are made, it will be fine in service for twenty years.

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 one, and the selling price is naturally different.

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

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

"She has a wide range of businesses, and she is really busy every day." Alan Wilson said embarrassingly, your daughter expects you to watch the children 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~lightnovelpub.net~ Alan Wilson thought, should 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. Specific things still need to be considered on a case-by-case basis. Sometimes a hasty decision will only get the opposite result. After comprehensive consideration, you should still try it out.

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

"If you don't take into account the fact that your sister Patricia has four children, what you said is partly true." Alan Wilson commented on the father and son of the parents from an objective point of view, and then sent the fried eggs to To the mouth, well, not bad...

Pamela Mountbatten gave her husband a blank look, "Are you Patricia's husband? Or my husband, which side are you on?"

The Foreign Secretary, Harold Wilson, is finally returning to the loyal Foreign Office headquarters from his glorious tour of Egypt.

Alan Wilson was, of course, ready, prepared to boast about the Foreign Secretary's insignificant exploits, to walk into the Foreign Office and ask what was going on.

Facing the inquiry from his immediate superior, Dixon thought for a moment and said, "There is a piece of news from France that the de Gaulle government has established a new department."

"What's so ridiculous about this?" Alan Wilson didn't want to keep making comments, 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 was a bit sultry, coughed and said, "I must express my strongest opposition with the strongest words from the beginning. Shameless, despicable, shameful plagiarism."
