Chapter 1141 Internal Solution

In fact, it's pretty much the same. Alan Wilson wanted to announce for the United States that Russia would invade on the 16th.

Regarding the outbreak of the Cuban Missile Crisis, he was more enthusiastic than the current US President Kennedy, but he now needs to collect data and make some strategic adjustments to prevent being caught off guard.

So the civil servants of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs saw their immediate superiors carrying a novel called Journey to the North, wandering around the headquarters building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs like a ghost. Nehru of India, Sukarno of Indonesia, Castro of Cuba , these world-famous politicians came to his mind one by one.

Alan Wilson now wants to try to shake up the seemingly rock-solid bipolarity of the Cold War. It doesn't matter if you can't shake it. Find an opportunity to shake it next time.

"Deputy Secretary? What is the book you are holding?" When Dixon came over to report on the work of the Foreign Secretary, he still couldn't help but ask.

"It doesn't matter what it is. It's part of professional image management. It shows that I am a professional..."

Alan Wilson answered with a novel depicting Emperor Zhenwu. No one else could understand it anyway.

Alan Wilson didn't have to answer such trivial questions. He answered simply because he was in a good mood and asked, "Have the statistics of Malaya and Xiangjiang been sent back?"

"Not yet, how about I urge you?" Dixon pondered for a moment, with a tone of asking for instructions. Then I saw my immediate boss nodding, and felt relieved for no reason.

"Please pay more attention. I will hand over a comprehensive report to Whitehall in the next few days. Data on overseas assets need to be mixed to annotate the inevitability of diplomatic strategy." Alan Wilson expressed his gratitude.

As a Whitehall official, you must not lie in front of politicians. You must be supported by data and make clear the inevitability of doing so. Otherwise, you will always use words to build an information cocoon, and you will not be able to solve all problems.

To get involved now, for example, the issue of Goa's ownership is to ensure that India will not invade Goa before the Cuban Missile Crisis. This requires British diplomatic efforts.

The closer the time is, the more cautious we should be. We should not let the darkness fall before dawn, otherwise everything will be in vain.

Alan Wilson hopes to conduct an armed mediation within a few months to facilitate talks between Portugal and India. It does not matter whether there is a result or not, as long as it has a good start.

The Cuban Missile Crisis and the border war are linked, and the friction between the two sides of the Himalayas has been going on for more than a year or two.

For a certain major country, it finally seized the opportunity while the United States and the Soviet Union were busy.

Therefore, as long as the Cuban Missile Crisis occurs, war will definitely begin. Let’s suppress the possibility of conflict in Goa first, and leave the rest to fate.

Two days later, the economic data of Malaya and Hong Kong were finally sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Alan Wilson opened this comprehensive foreign policy report. It was indeed comprehensive enough, and it also included the role of Japan.

As for the passage involving India, Alan Wilson evaluated the Forward Policy as the assistant commissioner of British India, with typical Indian self-confidence. It may be that after India's independence, various countries were relatively tolerant and courteous, giving Nehru a disdain. Either due to a big or small misunderstanding, or because they were deceived by the Indian military, they actually formulated such a hot-headed policy.

It's just that Alan Wilson is only from the perspective of the former suzerain country, and he can talk freely, and he has no solution.

How to stop it? Tell the Indians to stop, there are police outside?

"Typical Indians have the following characteristics: they are crazy confident and distrustful of outsiders. Maybe nothing will happen. If nothing happens, the Indians may think this is a conspiracy by the British to try to contain the powerful powers."

Pretending to be prescient, Alan Wilson said that this was just a possibility, a guess, and there was no guarantee of what would actually happen. This passage in India is full of Schrödinger. If something happens, the Permanent Under Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is far-sighted and worthy of being an oriental expert in the British Empire. If it does not happen, no one will remember it.

At No. 70 Whitehall, Norman Brooke was looking at part of the colony. "Malaya's revenue has increased by another fifty million dollars compared with last year?"

"There is revenue from the sale of oil to Japan, and the docking fees at Singapore's transit stations have increased a bit. This is part of the comprehensive strangulation of Japan's development. Singapore has a pivotal position in Malacca's route. With this geographical advantage, we have targeted For the Japanese fleet, it shouldn’t be excessive to charge a little toll.”

Alan Wilson gave a detailed explanation, "These revenues naturally have to be handed over to London. In order to prevent Malaya from falling into the quagmire of resource traps and maintain a certain sense of tension, it is best for Malaya's finances to be in a tight and The non-stressful range is convenient for us to control at any time.”

The passing geese leave their names, and the passing people leave their voices. No, it's the chickens plucking their feathers. Japan is developing so rapidly now, what's wrong with charging a little toll?

Tolls are only one of them. The price of iron ore also generates income, and once Japan’s statistics come out next year, it will continue to rise according to Japan’s economic growth rate.

"It's just a population of 100 million. I don't believe that the so-called demographic dividend cannot be suppressed. If the Japanese are diligent enough and change the time to twenty-five hours a day, I will admit defeat."

Alan Wilson looked smug, "If the homeland is not enough, then add colonies. One country is not enough. There are so many countries in Europe. Japan can't even think about competing with Europe."

"The determination to safeguard British interests is worthy of praise." Norman Brooke praised Alan Wilson for his encouragement. For the sake of the additional income of 50 million, the Secretary of State's loyalty to the British Empire is absolutely remarkable. "Armed mediation" Will Salazar agree to this?"

"He may disagree, but our attitude of asking Salazar to negotiate should not be excessive. We are not forcing Salazar to give Goa to the Indians. It is normal that the negotiations cannot be concluded." Alan Wilson was very enthusiastic He said, "On the African colonial issue, Britain and Portugal still have extensive room for cooperation. It is not too much to ask Portugal for a favor."

"Since it is armed mediation, some military force must be used. Of course, I know it will be no problem for you. Marshal Mountbatten is here." Norman Brooke did not object, "How much force is appropriate?"

"Deploying two Centaur aircraft carrier battle groups from the Royal Pacific Fleet is enough." Alan Wilson obviously has a plan in mind, which is enough to suppress the Indian Navy's Titan-class. If it is not enough, the Eagle-class aircraft carriers near the Persian Gulf will not be unable to pass.

Portugal is not without battleships and submarines, and it is not a role that can be manipulated. This is of course also thanks to his tireless work as a salesman for many years, raising the prices of old British aircraft carriers to remove them from inventory.

Norman Brook left a report and suddenly said before Alan Wilson left, "Alan, do your job well."

Well? Alan Wilson didn't know why, nodded confusedly, and went straight to the Ministry of National Defense. He now had a grand plan to discuss with his father-in-law.

Inevitably, Mountbatten knew that his son-in-law had circled the earth again this time and asked about his daughter.

"How is Pamela now?" Alan Wilson laughed, letting Marshal Mountbatten relax.

What you can tell Field Marshal Mountbatten is that Pamela Mountbatten is sprinting towards Lockheed. Australia is a vast and sparsely populated country, so it is a simple matter to get a large piece of land to use as a testing ground.

Of course, there is something I can’t tell you. Silver has been rising in the United States for more than a year. Pamela Mountbatten has a large amount of silver stored. Now she is faced with two choices. One is to follow the market and follow the rise in silver prices. When selling at a rising price, recover the cost first, so that you can at least not lose money.

Moreover, long-term operations can allow time to dilute risks, which can be said to be safe.

Another option is to have a big prophet, who speculates that silver will sell when it reaches its highest point. Unless Alan Wilson remembers exactly when silver will peak, this approach is too risky.

And it is easy to be discovered by vested interests in the United States, which may cause strangulation by different capitals.

Out of risk considerations, Pamela Mountbatten wanted to ensure that she would not lose money first, so she tended to choose the first option.

After thinking about it, Alan Wilson agreed. After all, he was not a real prophet, and his understanding of history could not be as precise as one day.

Marshal Mountbatten nodded with satisfaction, "Her business is getting bigger and bigger." Just to work hard in the military industry is enough to make Mountbatten himself proud.

Regarding his son-in-law's desire to promote negotiations between Portugal and India, Mountbatten also expressed his willingness to help. "I believe Rab Butler will like this credit."

"We, humble social servants, must build a platform to realize the minister's grand plan." Alan Wilson replied with a pun, "This not only requires diplomatic efforts, but military backing is also inevitable."

Whether it succeeds or not, it is best not to succeed. There is not much time left for India. If success is delayed this year, Nehru will have to be busy for several years just to deal with his own domestic affairs.

Just as Alan Wilson was setting up a platform for the Foreign Secretary to realize his grand plan, Guy Liddell arrived in the office of the Deputy Secretary of State. "We have found Soviet spies with connections to Christine Koehler."

"Oh my god!" Alan Wilson frowned slightly and began to insinuate Guy Liddell, "Gay is just an eighteen-year-old girl. From a personal moral level, this must be kept secret, although we are For the sake of the country, we can’t ruin the girl’s life, so this matter must be kept strictly confidential. You have to know that once this kind of thing is involved with sex, irresponsible media people will always make excuses.”
