Chapter 1105 The Result Is Good

The more times like this, the more courageous it is to show off. Isn’t revolution a treat to dinner? This sentence may not be suitable for Iran, but the meaning is the same, especially at this time, what if Mossadegh does not agree? What if Mossadegh brought in the Soviet Union to intervene?

Although Mossadegh was accused of being pro-Soviet, who said that it could not become a reality? Castro was not pro-Soviet at first, but now he is also following the Soviet Union.

Major McCordick soon received a telegram from Basra, in which Alan Wilson expressed his worries about the long nights and his dissatisfaction with Pahlavi's lack of human dignity.

After traveling to the U.S. Embassy and meeting Kermit Roosevelt, McCordick expressed British concerns.

"My friend, maybe your person in charge is not an easy person to get along with." Kermit Roosevelt laughed and asked the other person if Alan Wilson was not an easy person to get in touch with.

"That's not the case. Sir Wilson is a polite and polite man. After taking charge of the intelligence department, he clarified many benefits and secured more funds. It also shows that he is not a professional intelligence officer and can only provide support in terms of salary... …”

McCordick denied it and said in a defensive tone, "In fact, he is widely respected among civil servants."

People in the intelligence department can get help wherever there is Mountbatten Group industry, and they can check in at no cost when traveling. This is considered the Mountbatten Group's support for the country's secret front.

When McCordick and his party were in Basra, they did not spend any money, all of which the intelligence agencies appreciated.

"The United Kingdom still feels that it should act quickly. Sir Wilson judged that Mossadegh would not be captured without mercy. What if he, as prime minister, asked the Soviet Union to intervene? This possibility cannot be ruled out. On the other hand, King Pahlavi's actions made People are surprised.”

Kermit Roosevelt remained silent and felt that Major McCordick's words were reasonable. However, Pahlavi's foresight and hesitation was not without its benefits. It was conducive to being influenced by the United States. He was such a powerful king and might not be interested in the United States. Submissive.

"We are almost ready, so that once Mossadegh refuses to obey the king's order, we will take action immediately." Kermit Roosevelt assured in a solemn tone that the United States was not placing all its hopes on Pahlavi.

In addition to contacting the king, Donald Wilbur was also contacting royalist leaders in the military and senior Shiite clerics to gain support. These two groups are considered by the United States to be the main force in overthrowing Mossadegh. Of course, hope cannot only be Put it on Pahlavi alone.

Kermit Roosevelt was quite confident that the pro-Soviet People's Party, the Mass Party and trade union organizations that supported Mossadegh could not compare with the 130,000 Iranian armed forces and the traditional armed tribes that supported Pahlavi.

Of course, he also admitted that the British were worried about causing a reaction from the Soviet Union, especially the possibility of Mossadegh asking for help from the Soviet Union.

Asking for help from the Soviet Union was almost the last thing the United States wanted to hear after Lumumba in the Congo did so. Because Lumumba did it and became it.

Kermit Roosevelt did not know that the Soviet Union's ability to respond so quickly was related to the cultural czar who was at the top of the Soviet Union.

Without the firm support of the Cultural Czar, the Soviet Union would not have been able to respond so quickly. All this has something to do with the British gentleman in Basra, Alan Wilson, who is talking to the Protectorate about the desalination project.

On another day, the royalists who entered Tehran held a city-wide march to support the king who was marginalized in their eyes and to oppose Prime Minister Mossadegh's radical policies. At the same time, Mossadegh's supporters also launched a march. Both sides Accusing each other of being agents of foreign countries and not patriots, the sky above Tehran was filled with solemnity.

The National Front, People's Party and Popular Party members who supported Mossadeq were equally powerful. When the two groups met together, conflicts immediately broke out, and stones and wooden sticks became weapons to attack each other.

When Tehran gradually fell into chaos, at the prime minister's residence, the palace ministers sent by Pahlavi, with the king's warrant, hoped that Mossadegh could resign. Mossadegh expressed his refusal, and he had discovered the danger.

Since being blocked by the British, there have indeed been opponents of Mossadegh in Iran, but there are also many supporters of him. Although there are protesters, they have always been below a certain level. It would never cause such a big chaos like it is now.

At this time, someone told Mossadegh that the pro-King marchers and demonstrators supporting Mossadegh had become impulsive. The whole place was in chaos, some people were wailing, and many people fell in a pool of blood.

When Mossadegh heard the news, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He directly detained the palace minister and immediately ordered Tehran's city defense troops as prime minister to disperse the demonstrators.

After all, Mossadegh was a prime minister with high hopes. Tehran's city defense troops naturally followed orders in this chaos, and soon the military appeared in the city.

Pahlavi paid the price for his naivety, and Major McCordick sent the status quo to Basra, asking whether to continue.

"Can Pahlavi control Mossadegh? Chamberlain thought he controlled Hitler." Alan Wilson immediately called back and continued, "Whoever can get the support of the military will win."

When Kermit Roosevelt met Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran was panicking and preparing to go abroad to avoid the limelight. This appearance really disappointed Kermit Roosevelt. After a brief thought, After that, he said, "Actually, it's better to go out to avoid the limelight. I suggest going to Italy to wait for news."

At this time, the king could no longer count on him, if not for Pahlavi's insistence on testing the power of the king's warrant. According to what Britain and the United States said, Mossadegh's current actions would not occur if they took action directly.

At this time, Pahlavi was a negative asset to Britain and the United States, and staying in Tehran would have more of a negative effect. Might as well leave and leave the rest to Britain and the United States.

At the same time, it gave Mossadegh the illusion that the king had left and that the entire situation in Iran was under his own control.

By coincidence, Pahlavi's transit station was set up in Basra. Alan Wilson was in Basra and directly intercepted the special plane of the Shah of Iran and his entourage heading to Italy, allowing the king and his entourage to stay while allowing Pahlavi's The plane continued to take off.

It didn't take long for Alan Wilson to meet the king who had messed up the matter. "Your Majesty, just leave Iran to ensure safety. If you run too far, it won't be easy to come back after the overall situation has been decided, isn't it?"

"You are?" King Pahlavi did not interfere much in government affairs when Mossadegh was in power. Besides, he had never met Alan Wilson.

"The Permanent Under Secretary of the British Foreign Office has been paying attention to the Six-Party Talks in the past two years." Alan Wilson replied calmly. "At the same time, the UK is extremely sad that His Majesty the King cannot personally manage his country. Please rest first, I will tell you the latest situation directly."

The top priority now is whether Mossadegh will directly introduce the Soviet Union. This may take time to test.

After Mossadegh mobilized the city defense troops and with Pahlavi's departure abroad, the riots in Tehran have subsided. At least the surface has been calmed down, and the entire Iran is back under Mossadegh's control.

Even at this time, even Washington expressed doubts about the success of the operation. It is true that when it comes to the choice between Iran and the UK, it is right to choose the UK. But if it fails, Iran may turn toward the Soviet Union and resent the United States.

In Tehran, Mossadegh's speech was being played on the radio, expressing condolences for the more than 600 Iranians who had died due to the conflict. "Now that calm has been restored, we have reason to believe that the tragic memories will be diluted..."

"Some voices were worried that once it was found that the United States was behind the instigation, the relationship between the two countries would become very bad. But the director resisted the pressure." Kermit Roosevelt said to McCordick, "But I think Pahlavi Leaving is actually beneficial to us, at least now Mossadegh feels that he has the situation under control, so there is no need to worry about Soviet intervention."

On this day, the Soviet Union's TASS news agency did express concerns about the situation in Iran, but quickly praised Mossadegh's sophisticated handling of the situation.

"Can we continue?" Even McCordick didn't have much confidence now.

"The tank division stationed outside the city has agreed to help us." Kermit Roosevelt revealed the news. "In the end, we have to rely on the military to solve the problem. Public opinion sometimes doesn't matter."

Just when the conflict was over and Mossadegh was considered the victor, the royalists of the Iranian military entered the scene.

General Zahedi announced that Mossadegh had unshirkable responsibility for the conflict that resulted in more than 600 casualties and should be investigated by the Kingdom's courts.

Almost at the same time, Iranian armored divisions equipped with Sherman tanks entered urban Tehran. The coup forces used the radio to communicate with each other and ordered Tehran's urban defense forces to surrender. In some places, there were exchanges of fire between the two sides.

Tehran's artillery roared. Now is no longer the time for a small fight, but a confrontation within the army.

Dulles, the director of the CIA, was far away in Washington, but he was always paying attention to what was going on in Tehran. For this reason, it was difficult to sleep and eat. With the addition of armored divisions in the battle in Tehran, the balance gradually tilted towards the side of the coup d'etat.

At this time, Mossadegh wanted to ask for help from the Soviet Union, but it was already too late.

"Are you more noisy than a tank?" Alan Wilson said viciously, holding the telegram sent by McCordick.

"Secretary General, we received a telegram from Washington that the director of the CIA is coming to Basra."

Alan Wilson was stunned and replied, "Dulles? The purpose of his coming is probably for the king."
