Chapter 1297 The New King of Egypt

The new diplomatic strategy for Yemen is also being formulated, and it is basically carried out in accordance with some principles. For example, it can be called good-neighborly and friendly relations.

The current population of Yemen can also be regarded as a resource country. It treats resource countries with friendly expressions and is not rude. There are only two attitudes of industrial countries towards resource countries. The first is the imperialist powers before World War II. You have food and I have guns. Your home is my warehouse.

But this strategy must be based on the unity of the imperialist family. As long as there is a traitor among the industrial countries, this strategy will go bankrupt.

If industrial countries cannot unite, they will be at a disadvantage in confrontations with resource countries. For example, the oil crisis caused by the Arab world has caused great distress to both Europe and the United States.

Why do Arab countries dare to do this? The reason is the existence of the Soviet bloc. It is impossible to sit back and watch Europe and the United States shoot out these barbarians with guns just like before World War II. Why don't we dare to do this in the 21st century? Isn't it because of the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the United States is too strong?

Why was Saddam hung from the street lights? It has nothing to do with whether Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. It didn’t even take a year from when Iraq announced that it would use euros to settle its oil share until it was suspended from the street lights. France and Germany opposed the Iraq war because they knew why the United States went to war.

Arab countries are eager to have a country that can play the role that the Soviet Union did when it was alive. But in fact, Angola was the first country to propose settlement in RMB. The exchange condition was that in the face of invasion by unknown overseas forces, a certain big country must provide security guarantees. The great powers simply refused. Angola's position is indeed beyond the reach of a major country.

If the imperialist family does not exist, then we have to choose the second attitude, which is to welcome the resource countries with a smile, which is now Alan Wilson's original intention for Yemen's diplomacy. Not to mention that Yemen is not yet very anti-British, even if it is really anti-British, Britain will forgive them.

If you calculate carefully, if there is an Arab country controlled by the Free Officers Organization, it may make the Arab monarchies more eager to maintain harmonious relations with Britain.

The premise is that this country cannot be Egypt. Britain can get resources from all over the world, but there is only one Suez Canal.

Farah, who received the facilities and some exploration documents handed over by the British, was suspicious, is this still the hateful colonist? Have the British become so friendly now?

It is not true that they have become friendly, but it is a fact that they have become hypocritical, especially since Alan Wilson, the cabinet secretary, has determined to treat Yemen’s independence as a counterexample to the partition of India and Pakistan.

While he was busy establishing a diplomatic image in the new era, Lin Lianyu, who was under the care of supreme authority, was inspecting several long-established universities in the UK. His knowledge in higher education impressed the Chinese educator very much, and he clearly gained a lot at this time. Quite big.

The purpose of Lin Lianyu's visit this time was obvious. He hoped to get help from the United Kingdom in the education industry. After a round of inspection, he found the supreme authority who was doing diplomatic work.

"In terms of higher education, we can increase the list of students who are open to study abroad." Alan Wilson said immediately after hearing this. "To be honest, higher education cannot be established overnight. Don't you have a saying, things are rare and valuable? Everything must follow necessary objective laws.”

From this point on, we know the difference between a colony and a country. Although it is true that Japan is occupied by the United States, it still has the final say in education. Several universities in Japan train talents for their own country. Although Malaya has also accepted branch campuses established by several universities in London, the initiative lies with the United Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Alan Wilson couldn't help but curse the Soviet Union. This country spread knowledge, a priceless treasure that cannot be measured by money, very hastily and almost cheekily. The damage to Europe and the United States is permanent. From this point of view, all All countries under the Soviet system should be eradicated without mercy.

But just think about it this way, if the Soviet Union was also a resource country, the United Nations troops would knock on the door in the morning, but while it was a resource country,

Another industrial country. Therefore, Britain must remain diplomatically friendly to the Soviet Union and recognize that the other party is an important force for world stability.

It is really impossible for Britain to support Malaya like the Soviet Union, at least in the field of education.

Letting Malaya out of Oxford and Cambridge means destroying the jobs of local universities. Even if Alan Wilson wants to do this, look at how many colleagues from two universities there are in Whitehall. Why don't they block the Cabinet Secretary's office?

"Mr. Lin, don't be too ambitious." Alan Wilson said as if he was possessed by Chang Gong and was determined to win thousands of miles away. "I want to make it clearer. If any country or region wants to make progress, it cannot happen overnight. London has done its best to support Malaya. It is the Commonwealth market, the access of the European Community, and the accumulation of massive resources. This is just to allow Malaya to Asia can be on par with Japan. You have to know that the price of imported raw materials in Japan, if not mention anything else, iron ore is much more expensive than in Malaya."

"The situation in Japan is that before the war, Japan was already an industrial country. But what was the foundation of Malaya before the war? I think you understand better than me."

At this time, Japan was no longer the great power that did not live up to its name as Alan Wilson said. The Japan he once spoke of stood out in Asia but was nothing in Europe. A local snake in Asia's matching mechanism. If Britain and Japan were to fight against each other in World War II, without the threat of the Germans from across the strait, Britain could completely make Japan suffer.

But in front of Lin Lianyu, Japan is once again a member of the imperialist powers, its heritage has become an important indicator factor, and its experience has become the magic weapon for victory.

"It's like the Sino-Japanese War." Lin Lianyu sighed after hearing this.

"Huh? Oh, yes, that's what it means!" On another occasion, Alan Wilson would definitely refute the other party, but now the other party is asking for something that he cannot agree to. If he agrees, it will destroy the basis of unity in Whitehall. , I can only nod my head without conscience.

Can the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894 prove that Japan has a solid foundation? The Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1894 best demonstrated the role of strong ships and powerful artillery, because the strength of the Japanese navy was indeed superior to that of the Beiyang Fleet. The fighting will of the Beiyang Fleet cannot be said to be bad.

In the era of the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1894, shipbuilding technology was undergoing great development. Ten years later, the United Kingdom began construction of 20,000-ton dreadnoughts. The Yoshino was only 4,000 tons, which shows how great changes occurred during that time.

The reason why Japan was able to win the Sino-Japanese War was that the tonnage of the Japanese navy surpassed that of the Beiyang Fleet. There was no other particularly important reason. The Royal Navy also hung clothes on the deck, which did not delay the display of combat effectiveness.

"You lied again." After Alan Wilson returned home, he told the whole story and received this comment from his wife.

"Then what should I do? Do you know how many alumni of the two universities in Whitehall will be?" Alan Wilson spread his hands, "I agreed, what should I, the cabinet secretary, do? But I agreed, and I want to transfer some In the shipbuilding industry, we have to match the high and low levels. Now we are thinking about arranging employment for shipbuilding workers."

"What's the plan? I'll immigrate to Australia." Pamela Mountbatten pointed out the way out with a smile. "There are still people in Perth. As long as the people are skilled enough to drive engineering vehicles, there is no need to worry about unemployment."

"Don't always talk about immigration, as if these workers cannot be employed. Isn't it the same as going to Malaya to work as a master to train industrial workers?" Alan Wilson flatly rejected his wife's suggestion of poaching. If it is difficult to find another job, he can Consider immigrating.

While the two were chatting, the phone on the table suddenly rang. Alan Wilson picked up the phone and said absently, "I'm Alan."

"Secretary-General, Faruk I died of illness." Dixon's voice came from the middle of the microphone, "Are we?"

"I'll be there soon, I'll be there soon. Pay close attention to what's happening in Cairo!" Alan Wilson jumped up and repeated it twice in a row. After hanging up the phone, Alan Wilson did not forget to speak to his wife, "I suggest you ask the marshal, the British Army Do you have the ability to respond to emergencies in Egypt?"

I don't know if Farouk I died, but compared to his original fate, he has been more than ten years more comfortable now. At least he died while serving as king, not in exile.

Now that Farouk I has died, according to the current situation, the position of King of Egypt should fall to the twelve-year-old Prince Fuad.

Alan Wilson immediately telegraphed the Egyptian Embassy to pay close attention to the situation in Cairo. "Fuad I has great appeal in the hearts of the Egyptian people. Prince Fuad can find a way to contact his grandfather."

Fuad I led the Egyptians to successfully gain independence from Britain and established the Farouk Dynasty, Egypt's last historical dynasty. Because Fuad I was diligent in governing the country and with the help of Britain, Egypt developed rapidly, so the Farouk Dynasty also Received the support and support of the Egyptians.

"I'm ready to retire." Marshal Mountbatten looked at his son-in-law with a wry smile on his face, "But this kind of thing still happens. It's really annoying."

"Marshal, problems can occur anywhere. The Suez Canal is the main artery of Britain." Alan Wilson said in a tone of seriousness, "I have asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to draw up a document to mourn Farouk I. life."

"I don't know whether his life starts with his amazing appetite, or his unique stealing skills." Marshal Mountbatten sighed and asked, "Looking at you, you are planning to go there."

"Of course, Egypt is such an important country." Alan Wilson said without hesitation, "If you don't go and find out for yourself, you can't feel at ease."
