Chapter 1362 If You Don’t Get Beaten, You Won’t Have a Long Memory.
"Are you going to London? Why did you remember to go there? Gromyko will make arrangements." Fortseva was originally very happy to see her son return, but when she heard about the arrangements, it turned cloudy.
"Anyway, it's just a temporary place. I have some understanding of the West. I will come back to work, mother."
Alexeyev briefly mentioned the next stop, holding his mother's hand and sitting down, "Speaking of this operation, I believe it will come to an end within a month after the leaders of the brotherly countries come to Moscow to discuss it. I remember Many years ago, Uncle Yura said that the lull in things in Poland is only temporary, and they will still make trouble at some point."
"You are not so obedient in front of me and your father." Fortseva muttered in disgust, "If he hadn't been gone, I would have asked him what kind of ecstasy soup he poured into you and what bad things he did. Be an intelligence officer. Be a scientist, a doctor, or even a teacher if you can't."
"They are counter-revolutionary workers." Alexeyev corrected his mother, and then performed a katana show with a Damascus steel knife. "I do not deny that those professions are important, but professions do not distinguish between high and low. To be a security guard The same goes for department workers.”
Alexeyev assured that he did not do this because of the KGB's prestige. In fact, with Fortseva's status, he had more good careers to choose from.
Fortseva has never denied this. The Cultural Tsar also has a son, and can provide many paths for his son to choose. He is no worse than anyone else.
"I may be promoted again, and I should wait until this promotion to take up my post in London." Alexeyev gave his mother a reassurance. Judging from his performance after joining the work, only age is holding him back. Nothing is an obstacle to progress.
Once promoted this time, it is not too late to be promoted to lieutenant colonel at the age of twenty-two. Although the KGB has a precedent of becoming chairman at the age of thirty-six and reaching the rank of general, everyone knows that it happened in a specific period. Now and that Times are no longer the same, let alone imitating them, even Xie Lepin's entire faction has stepped aside.
"I have nothing to say, other than to pay attention to safety, you have grown up anyway." Fortseva looked reproachful, "Come back and have a good rest this time."
"Mother, oh, Alyosha, you are back." Just at this moment, Svetlana pushed the door open and the sound came in, looking at her somewhat unfamiliar brother and saying hello.
"Sister, long time no see." Alexeyev greeted with a smile, then stood up and said, "I still have my own business, you can talk to your mother."
"You have just come back and are leaving. Mother, you should find a wife for Alyosha, so that maybe he won't run around." Svetlana suggested with a wicked smile, and then boasted, "This is really What a great idea, what did I think?”
"Marry yourself, do you want to learn from Brezhneva?" Faced with his sister's bad idea, Alexeyev retorted, and then directly rubbed the soles of his feet without waiting for the other party to speak.
After not returning to Moscow for a long time, he still wanted to walk around. He went shopping with a few colleagues, and then came to a special store in Moscow, which was filled with products imported from the West. When he came here with a few friends, he saw Rolls-Royce Silver Phantom to the store entrance.
"I remember that this was a gift from the Finnish government to the country. There were two cars in total, one for the First Secretary and the Chairman of the Council of Ministers." The friend next to Alexeyev said.
Just as he was talking, the owner of the Rolls-Royce had already come out of the special store. It could be seen that the day's harvest was good. Alexeyev's expression changed, and then he stepped forward and said hello with a smile, "Sister Galina, Long time no see, I didn’t expect to see you here today.”
"Alyosha, aren't you in Warsaw?" Brezhneva, who was carrying large and small bags, looked surprised. Apparently she didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here, so she took the initiative and said, "What do you like? I'll sell it to you." .”
"I don't need anything. I just came here to walk around and find a place to have a drink." Alexeyev shrugged.
"Maybe after a while, I have other work to do."
"What's the problem if you want to drink? Come with me." Brezhneva smiled and greeted the people present enthusiastically, winning a round of approval. Brezhnev's daughter certainly has this face, " But Alyosha, are you an adult? I don’t want to be blamed for this."
Alexeyev looked impatient, "That's right. I came here specifically to buy milk bottles, and you happened to bump into me."
There is a age difference of nearly twenty years between the two of them. They are not of the same generation. However, due to the working relationship of the previous generation, it is very embarrassing for the two of them to know each other even though they are not of the same generation.
The gangster organization headed by Brezhneva always ignored the opinions of the masses and pretended to be the guiding light of his star of hope.
In London, England, Alan Wilson is still doing his best for Britain. As the peak of the May storm has passed, something must be done using the hegemony of public opinion. For example, it is very appropriate to use the label of alienation to summarize this movement, the collapse of democracy, feminism, and traditional culture. This is not entirely a slander. This in itself is one of the results of the May Storm.
During this period, young people after the war suddenly became obsessed with long hair, drugs, Guevara's face, and sex, and were no longer willing to obey their elders, teachers, and the government. The students' resistance was gradually described as the cynical individualistic resistance of the hippies, which was directly aimed at "individual freedom" and even a hedonistic life.
Nothing can escape being reshaped, let alone such a major event. Britain and the United States have the responsibility and obligation to make the impact of this movement harmless. Alan Wilson realized this first and was ready to cooperate with the Americans on this matter.
Brest is organizing a program for British sociologists and parent representatives to try to influence France, hoping that the French will do this, so the UK will never do this.
At the diplomatic level, Britain's foreign policy will be resolutely anti-war for some time in the future as long as the Vietnam War does not end. However, this resolute anti-war is limited to the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom has no ability to interfere in U.S. foreign policy. "We must put May The storm caused astronomical damage, and the blame falls on these anarchists."
Alan Wilson emphasized this point to the officials of the Ministry of the Interior. Although France's astronomical losses were also shared by his wife and ladies of the same status as his wife, this is not important. The big issues of right and wrong should actually pay attention to the facts? What a joke.
If the British economic growth this year is not optimistic, it is also because of the negative effects of the May storm in France. Who makes Britain and France essentially neighbors? If France is not responsible, who is responsible?
If France cannot shoulder this responsibility, it doesn’t matter. France is not the only country that has erupted in protests in the past two years, but also the Federal Republic of Germany and Italy. Major European countries can definitely shoulder this responsibility. If not, the protests in the United States in the past two years have also been very powerful. , these are all negative effects on the British economy in foreign trade.
After Brest left, Permanent Undersecretary of Defense Marks came to the Cabinet Office and reported some progress on the Palestinian-Israeli issue. The UK has always hoped that the Palestinian and Israeli parties can resolve the issue through negotiations. Of course, this is a public position. Markins is the permanent undersecretary of the Department of Defense, and diplomatic work has nothing to do with him.
The progress described by the Ministry of Defense is the countermeasures taken by Israel's neighboring countries to fortify border towns, communicate through tunnels, and carry out day-to-day operations. It is essentially a move to build a turtle shell, strategically similar to France's Maginot Line, used to deter possible Israeli attacks.
Jordan and Egypt are currently conducting similar operations, which Alan Wilson believes is useful, because Hezbollah will rely on this tactic in later generations to make Israel retreat in spite of difficulties. Israel's fighting method is actually that of the United States, which is low-profile. Even the United States itself has few solutions when encountering such a situation, such as the battle of Fallujah.
When encountering this kind of fortress group, in fact, from World War I to the 21st century, the method was almost the same, and artillery doctrine opened the way.
Israel is actually quite afraid of this situation, because Israel has no manpower advantage, and wars with Arab countries must be resolved quickly. As long as it drags on, Israel will be uncomfortable.
In all the Arab countries' previous Middle East wars, regular armies were formed and Israel fought systematically, but the results were not good. On the contrary, Hezbollah's method of fighting bad wars was not something Israel could do.
"That's good. Israel can play a good exchange ratio indefinitely, but as long as there is not much progress on the ground, there will be no problem." Alan Wilson was very happy and satisfied with Jordan's feedback.
At the time of speaking, Alan Wilson had already stood up, and Makins asked, "Secretary-General, where are you going?"
"The Prime Minister asked me to prepare an anti-war document. The core of our diplomacy in the next few years will be anti-war." Alan Wilson said with a smile on his face, "Who told us to love peace."
What's the point of this? Crossing the river by touching the United States, summing up experience to prevent the United Kingdom from encountering similar problems. However, in essence, the United Kingdom will certainly not put pressure on the United States. It will just encircle its own anti-war forces at home.
The experience is nothing more than these. As we have always shown, we have not fully realized the role of modern, high-tech military equipment, troops and theories in the confrontation with irregular and highly aroused people's movements. The effect is extremely limited.
Likewise, we have failed to integrate our military strategy with the task of winning the hearts and minds of a people with a completely different culture.
"I think the United States should need this experience more." Harold Wilson said with emotion as he looked at the results obtained by the Cabinet Secretary.
"I think considering the self-esteem of Americans, it's better for them to realize this." Alan Wilson hesitated, "If you don't get beaten, you won't have a long memory."
