Chapter 1335 I’m Not Surprised at All

As Cabinet Secretary-General, Alan Wilson was not a minister with the power to make decisions, but he still expressed his thoughts optimistically in front of the two cabinet ministers.

This optimism surprised George Brown, the Secretary of State and Economic Affairs Minister, and said, "Allen, an economic and trade contract, and we signed it with the Soviet Union in the 1920s. Is it too optimistic? National relations will not change because of It will change with just one economic and trade treaty.”

"Of course, my minister. It is impossible for our relationship with the Soviet Union to be close, but the current situation is beneficial to Britain. We all know in our hearts that the fate of a country is determined on land, and on this , not only are we not strong, but the United States is not an army power either. The Cold War is the best way to deal with an enemy like the Soviet Union. In the context of the United States sending troops to Southeast Asia, some economic and trade exchanges can ease the situation in Europe, which is the best response."

Alan Wilson spoke with enthusiasm. What was the best way to confront the Soviet Union? Just don't go to war with the Soviet Union.

But whether to go to war with the Soviet Union also depends on what the Soviet Union thinks? If the Soviet Union itself has a strong desire for confrontation, then what European countries should do is to find ways to quell this desire for confrontation.

How to weaken the Soviet Union's desire for confrontation is not to turn the Cold War into a hot war. Lao Maozi's diode thinking is recognized, and not to force the Soviet Union into a state of using force to solve problems. Then it is necessary to maintain economic and trade relations and suppress the Soviet Union without being too obvious.

If the strength comparison between the Soviet Union and a certain big country in the Cold War was dominated by a certain big country and the Soviet Union was relatively weak, then Cold War confrontation might not be a good idea. You must know that the strategic determination of a certain big country is much stronger than that of the Soviet Union. Although a certain big country has proved from North Korea and Vietnam that it is not easy to mess with, it is absolutely unable to plan a global offensive strategy.

On the contrary, diodes like the Soviet Union can be made. It is undeniable that the Soviet Union did indeed overwhelm the United States during the period of global offensive, but its investment did not care about the future. Let’s use the Anti-Japanese War as an example. When the Soviet Union was fighting, it was all about speed. In terms of victory, I don’t even think about it. What if I can’t win after a wave of flow?

If the national power of the Soviet Union and a certain big country were reversed, it could be said that as an ally with weaker relative strength, Lao Maozi would be much more courageous than a certain big country that is secretly backing North Vietnam.

Judging from the core of Lao Maozi's national spirit, the most suitable confrontation environment for them is actually a world war, not a soft confrontation like the Cold War. This is not an area where the Slavs are good at.

If the Soviet bloc is going to fight a world war now, then there is no doubt that the Soviet Union is a staunch ally of all countries in its bloc, just like when Serbia was threatened in World War I, Imperial Russia started mobilizing without saying a word.

France was breathless by Germany, and Imperial Russia rushed out of the country and headed straight to East Prussia without being prepared. This can prove that the Slavs are the most reliable allies during wartime.

Their mentality has extremely serious characteristics of recognizing power. For example, in the case of Scam Island, will the Russians support a war with a certain major country? Yes, once the Russians identify an ally, they will not even care whether it is morally tenable. Let alone a fraud island, even if there is no reason to go to war with Japan, this kind of diode thinking will make Russia happy. As for how many rubles moral values ​​are worth ?

However, this kind of Cold War economic and political confrontation is by no means the area in which the Soviet Union is best at. It can be said that as long as the Cold War is maintained, the free world will prevail sooner or later.

Alan Wilson even believed that the peace that Chamberlain brought back for a generation could be used in this economic and trade negotiation. This is the great significance of developing economic and trade relations with the Soviet Union this time.

It's a pity that the two ministers did not fulfill his small wish and did not imitate Chamberlain's eagerness to wave the economic and trade agreement.

After returning to London, Alan Wilson immediately put his previous ideas into action and arranged for Dickson, the principal private secretary of the Foreign Secretary, to be the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Education. As for the vacancy he left behind,

Let Wick take over. This job transfer is also an example to the Prime Minister's Private Secretary Brest. After the nationalization of the water supply system ends this year, Brest will go to work in the Ministry of Home Affairs.

Regarding this Anglo-Soviet trade agreement, Pamela Mountbatten said hello, focusing on specific goods with reliable quality and low price, rather than the distinction between ourselves and the enemy. After the United Kingdom opens up imports, British citizens will be really happy sooner or later. As for conservative Regarding the party’s opposition, who caused the Conservative Party to lose nearly 100 seats last time? How can a weak opposition party have any say?

"The Prime Minister has great expectations for the promotion of the public education system." Alan Wilson took a cup of coffee, handed it to Dixon, and made a cup of wolfberry himself. He also consumed a lot of money during this trip to Moscow. Of course, there is nothing to say when you are all running for the country, but you still have to make up for it when you come back.

Encouragement for Dixon to move to a new position is indispensable. After all, becoming the permanent undersecretary of a department and being promoted to a top official in Whitehall is a big step in life.

Dixon is actually nearly ten years older than the supreme authority in front of him, but then again, apart from the newly hired clerks, no one in Whitehall is older than him.

This is not Alan Wilson's fault. He can't make himself bald and gain some life experience. Ladies of the same status as his wife will definitely not be happy if he does this.

"Secretary-General, I will definitely prove my ability." Dixon showed his loyalty with a look of obeying the supreme authority.

"Both the deputy secretary-general and I believe in your ability, but the most important thing in our business is reliability." Alan Wilson took a sip of wolfberry and spoke in a moderate tone, hinting to Dixon, "Tomorrow's meeting of the permanent vice-presidents At the meeting, the appointment will be officially announced.”

At No. 10 Downing Street at this time, the Prime Minister's Political Secretary Maria Falconde was talking about the trends in Whitehall, "Prime Minister, I have to say that the entire Whitehall is under the influence of Sir Wilson. I originally thought that Deputy Secretary-General Bob Keltlund, will be dissatisfied with him. Facts have proved that he is indeed dissatisfied, but he dare not move at all in the struggle. Frank, the permanent secretary of the Treasury, is also very quiet. I heard before that the Treasury has always been in Whitehall. Contenders, but now there is no sign of it. At Sir Wilson's age, it is scary."

"Maria, let's fulfill some of our campaign promises first, and then we will think about how to deal with the Whitehall issue." Harold Wilson breathed a sigh of relief, appeasing the political secretary whom the Labor Party used to contain Whitehall, and who is obviously still This is not the time to have conflicts with Whitehall.

The next day, Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet Burke Trend announced the appointment of the new permanent secretary of the Ministry of Education. The meeting of permanent deputy ministers burst into endless applause, which was like a vigorous competition for all things.

"I invited my colleagues to watch the stage play today, and I also said that Monroe will also be on stage today." Dixon had just been promoted and directly extended the invitation to his colleagues, which aroused everyone's approval. The new permanent secretary of the Ministry of Education can handle it. It deserves everyone’s reliable evaluation.

Movies mixed with songs and dances seem to be exclusive to Indian movies in later generations, but in fact, movies of this type were not uncommon in Hollywood in the 1940s and 1950s. Monroe also had ample stage experience.

Her blond hair flows naturally, making her face look particularly cute. Her green eyes with golden spots were surrounded by thick eyelashes. Her nose was short and straight, her lips were plump and sexy, her chin was small and pointed, and her skin was as white as a magnolia flower.

She has a beauty that is almost in the style of early Raphael paintings, an unusual beauty that has given her many opportunities to walk on the catwalk and become the object of photographers' pursuit.

The silent atmosphere was broken, and several ladies in the audience began to whisper excitedly. They were all conquered by this majestic beauty.

The gentlemen of Whitehall are naturally not as ignorant as the women who only know how to shout, but they are also addicted to the charm of Monroe. After all, Monroe is a cultural symbol, although Vivien Leigh and Hepburn are also beautiful. , but it has not yet reached the status of a cultural symbol.

At the end of the stage play, Monroe blew a kiss to the audience who came here. When she saw the familiar man coming, Monroe was slightly startled, and then she smiled brightly like a hundred flowers blooming.

"Sometimes you really should do more good deeds." Alan Wilson smiled and nodded, accepting all the blowing kisses, feeling that he was right to save this sexy goddess.

At the Kuala Lumpur High Commission, Richard knocked on the table hard, "How dare they make trouble in Singapore? This is a British colony. Are they crazy?"

"We originally wanted to block the news, but High Commissioner, you also know that Singapore is the most prosperous city in the colony now, and news spreads extremely fast." The Singaporean Commissioner looked like a criminal with no idea, and said completely, "Now what to do?"

"Well!" Richard raised his wrist to calculate the time, then picked up the phone directly. After a while, a voice came from the phone, "I'm Allen."

"Secretary-General, there is an emergency in Singapore. It involves other countries." Richard frowned and said, "Singapore has received a group of wounded soldiers from the South Vietnam war."

"Americans?" There was a long silence on the phone, and then he asked, "Killing, raping? Or what?"

"There is one American soldier, but most of them are Korean wounded soldiers." Richard reported carefully, "Singapore is densely populated, and we did not block the news."

"I'm not surprised at all about those Japanese devils," someone muttered into the microphone. Others couldn't understand the words, but Richard happened to be able to converse in Chinese and heard them clearly. "Catch them first, then talk about it." Maybe I will go there in person, and I should show my toughness at the appropriate time, but the American soldiers involved should not appear in the official report yet, and send the cause and effect via telegram first."
