Chapter 1221 Honest Arms Dealer
Business is business, and Korea is not the British sphere of influence. This time, Richard came to visit him and it was considered polite to meet him. Quan Xiaojun can't ask for too much. As a senior commissioner, he is also very busy.
As for the free world, it's even more nonsense. Richard doesn't quite understand the difference between Japan and South Korea in essence and colonies. They are independent countries in name only.
"South Korea is on the front line of the confrontation, just like the Federal Republic of Germany is in Europe." Young general Quan is still making the final push.
But Richard's yawning reaction showed that this was not enough to impress him, "The United States is protecting you, not South Korea on the so-called Cold War frontline. South Korea has an illusion about its strategic position, which is very bad."
A barren country with an area of less than 100,000 people and a population of 20 million. If it were not for the presence of the US military stationed in South Korea, it would be wiped out in a snap. Is it worthy of attention?
Richard, who studied under the supreme authority, is very different from Alan Wilson in his views on Asian issues. One looks at the area and the other looks at the population. These two cannot deceive people, and they are data that cannot be tampered with.
Unlike other statistical data, different results can be obtained according to different standards. Looking at the problem this way, naturally the only criteria left are the famous big countries and a certain big country.
Other countries in Asia are not worth mentioning. I don’t know where South Korea is ranked. Although saying it directly might make Quan Xiaojiang feel humiliated, there was nothing Richard could do, it was a fact.
The British sneezed, causing South Korea, which has an extremely fragile economy in this era, to bear undue pressure. Then just endure it, what else can you do?
Richard just treated this meeting as a chat after dinner and exchanged a message with his immediate boss in a telegram.
Alan Wilson didn't know that the Korean who met Richard was the famous Junior General Quan. Even though I knew this, I just regarded it as a joke and didn't think there was anything wrong with my subordinate's attitude.
This world is very realistic. When talking about a free world, it is better to just talk about how much money there is.
"A saint can cut off the mighty with one hair!" Alan Wilson muttered. Britain can be regarded as the supreme leader in killing itself. So what if it doesn't take South Korea seriously?
If at the beginning, it was just to make a deal with the Soviet Union in exchange for 220 tons of gold. Now, with the development of the situation, Alan Wilson has become more and more inclined to raise the price of food that can be found everywhere in normal years.
This is also for my wife to get the grain merchant’s admission ticket.
Give some benefits to the other four major grain merchants, and everyone will make a fortune together.
Alan Wilson thought of this and immediately called Richard back, "What you need to pay close attention to is the speculative behavior in Malaya. To put it bluntly, keep an eye on the Chinese, they will do anything for profit."
Just look at the Republic of China under the rule of the Pao Party and you will know what the comprador group will do. For the vast majority of businessmen, it is not impossible to rush in when they see demand and wish to reduce prices to supply.
The amount of profit sometimes doesn't matter. The mentality of wishing that peers would be squeezed to death often prevails. This is especially true for the comprador class, so Richard must keep an eye on it.
"If you lend a hand to the company, the company can survive, but if you want to kill the company, it is not difficult."
In the past few days, the Cabinet Secretary-General often rested here at Xia Meng's place, so naturally he couldn't hide what he did.
This extremely ferocious imperialist face made Xia Meng deeply uneasy, "Many people will starve to death."
"I know." Alan Wilson's reaction was rather bland, and he did not add, "I have seen the Bengal famine, and I also saw the famine break out in India in 1947."
This is not to show off some glorious history, but just to explain that I was present during the Indian Famine.
"That's the lives of many people." Xia Meng looked sad, and the man's calm attitude made her even more emotional.
"My dear, this world-state is divided into classes. Some people are destined to face this fate."
Alan Wilson searched his mind and felt that he wanted to teach a lesson to women of the same status as his wife, "Countries have different sizes, strengths and weaknesses. Everyone has a price. Don't pity Japan and South Korea just because they think they are all yellow people. As long as In one sentence from Americans, from now until the end of your life, both countries are staunchly anti-China countries. If they don't want to do this, their own US military is not a decoration."
"The value of being a chess piece only ends here. You don't have to pity them. There are many places in this world that are even worse than them... The joys and sorrows of life are not the same. Don't use big-picture methods to describe them. Concept, to look at the relationship between East Asian countries, in a sense, they are also enemies of your motherland."
Alan Wilson is good at teaching, and he really thinks so. If the goal of his previous efforts in life was to get Britain out of the hijacking of the United States, then after the Cuban Missile Crisis, part of his original intention has changed. Since getting rid of the hijacking was initially successful, The next step is to hold others hostage.
This cannot be said to be noble or despicable, the relationship between countries is like this. As for Xia Meng's outbreak of the Virgin's heart, Ellen Wilson only needs to spend some time and communicate in depth, and she will understand it.
To talk about the recent actions of the Ministry of National Defense, it is to build on the orders obtained from India and promote British weapons and equipment to Middle Eastern countries to deal with the threat of Zionism. This is also the most politically correct top priority in the Arab world.
If Zionism were only a problem between Israel and Palestine, after several Middle East wars, Arab countries would have abandoned Palestine at worst, and Egypt would not have lost its position as Arab leader.
Zionism does not only refer to Israel, nor is the annexation of Palestine all that the Jews stand for.
In the Bible, the record about the area of the country of Israel is that the four boundaries of the earth are like this. The northern boundary goes from the sea to Hitron to the mouth of Zeddah. Then it goes to Hamath, Perothah, and Zebrion ( Sibelim (between the borders of Damascus and Hamath) to Hasahategan on the border of Hauran.
In this way, the boundary is from the sea to Hasa-enan on the border of Damascus, and to the north is the land of Hamath. This is the northern boundary.
The eastern boundary is between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead, and the land of Israel, which is the Jordan River. You shall measure from the northern boundary to the eastern sea. This is the eastern boundary.
The southern boundary is from Tamar to the water of Kadesh at Meribah, extending to the creek of Egypt and reaching the sea. This is the southern boundary.
The western boundary is the sea, from the southern boundary to the land opposite the entrance to Hamath. This is the western boundary.
According to this definition, even if all Palestine is included, it is not enough. Parts of the Sinai Peninsula, Lebanon, and Jordan must be given up in order to meet Israel's appetite.
It would be foolish for Arab countries to agree to such an idea. There might be a war breaking out in the Middle East. For the sake of Israel’s security, the United States even dares to provide nuclear weapons. What’s wrong with the UK talking about arms sales?
It is normal to arm the pro-British countries in the Arab world. The current list of pro-British countries includes Egypt, Iraq and Jordan, especially Iraq, which is the country where the Ministry of Defense is currently focused on lobbying.
Considering the performance of aircraft in this era, the distance between the Kingdom of Iraq and Israel and other conditions, it is somewhat difficult for the Israeli Air Force to launch a surprise attack to kill the air forces of Arab countries.
The Israeli Air Force can handle sudden attacks by Jordan and Egypt, so if you want to arm the Arabs with air power, Egypt and Jordan are not suitable. The Kingdom of Iraq, which is farther away, is a good choice.
Coincidentally, two high-altitude and high-speed Aerial Beauty prototypes of the Mountbatten Group have arrived in the mainland. Alan Wilson, who is also the Permanent Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, invited a group of ambassadors from Arab countries to watch the test flight performance.
"Ambassador Mohammed, as you can see, this is the masterpiece of the British Empire's aviation industry." Facing the copied J-8II, Alan Wilson was not embarrassed at all. Alan Wilson, who was wearing a light-colored Arab robe, tried his best to sell it It is the last high-altitude and high-speed fighter of later generations.
"It can meet the double-two standard, with a flight limit of more than 20,000 meters and a flight speed of Mach 2.2. Look at this line."
After all, it is the first fighter jet produced by my wife's industry. Not to mention that the prototype J-8II itself appeared in the 1980s, twenty years later than the era of second-generation aircraft with high altitude and high speed, so it is definitely not much different.
Let’s just say that the British aviation industry, even now, is stronger than that of a major country twenty years later. According to Alan Wilson, the worst thing about British Airways is that it is really bad at making shells, but it is not bad in other aspects.
But apart from remembering the shell, the Cabinet Secretary could not help in other aspects. After all, he had never flown a plane.
Britain's biggest weakness is its aerodynamic layout, which fits perfectly with it. The Arabs know how to design airplanes, and the handsome men in the air are not bad at selling. It doesn't depend on what they say.
"Sir Allen, it seems that this has not officially entered service." The Iraqi ambassador asked his question with doubts on his face.
"Given the current position that the UK is in, it needs to be more sincere when it comes to arms sales." Alan Wilson explained calmly, "The UK is not the United States and will not set rules and regulations when using it. Will the ambassador forget it? The UK even sold more than one aircraft carrier.”
Alan Wilson is all about sharing risks. He is not a handsome man in the air. He has opinions, and the entire second-generation aircraft is embarrassed. Since it is necessary to accumulate the necessary technical reserves to develop the next generation of fighters, it is best to sell as many second-generation fighters as possible.
Japan and South Korea are both exclusive territories of the United States. In Europe, second-generation aircraft are not third-generation aircraft. Many countries have the ability to develop second-generation aircraft. So what should we do? After much deliberation, only Arab countries are suitable.
Food and munitions were both important, and Alan Wilson now felt that he was increasingly stepping into the role of Cabinet Secretary.
