Chapter 322 Clear the Suspicion

"Dicky, people say that the work in British India is complicated." Churchill called Mountbatten by his nickname, which seemed more intimate. Dicky is a Russian word. Because Nicholas is one of his five names.

When the Tsar's family came to live, there were too many children named Nicky, so Mountbatten's brother and sister called him Dicky to distinguish them.

"Yes, I have always known this, but I have never felt it as deeply as now." Mountbatten had no objection to Churchill calling him his nickname. Churchill was a politician of his previous generation and belonged to the same generation. The relationship between teacher and friend, the other party is fully qualified to call it that.

"Up to now, we haven't even had a good chat with the princely states." Churchill changed the subject and said, "But fortunately, the Governor's Office has not forgotten this work."

After India and Pakistan became independent, what would happen to these princes and states? Politicians in London believed that the relationship between the British government in India and the princely states was very special. As soon as British rule in India ended, Britain's power and responsibility over the princely states would also end.

The princely states played an important role in the rule of the British Empire in the subcontinent. Take Hyderabad, for example. Hyderabad's army has participated in many battles of the British Empire and has always been an ally.

If the interests of the country are not taken into consideration, this will be a huge harm. But at this time, the British opinions are obviously not as taken seriously as before.

Churchill also experienced the powerless situation, not only from the Soviets, but also from the Americans, such as the Quebec Conference.

Quebec is located at the confluence of the St. Lawrence and St. Charles rivers. Although it is the capital of Quebec, Canada, its population is only about 100,000, and it is not considered a prosperous city even in Canada.

However, it left its own page in the modern history of the world because British and American political and military leaders held many meetings here during the war and made many important decisions.

At the meeting, Churchill still talked to the Americans about the importance and necessity of his "Balkan Strategy". However, after a fierce debate, the British finally agreed to adopt the strategic plan code-named "Overlord", stipulating that the Allied forces would Landing in Normandy.

Because of the opposition of the United States, the United Kingdom hoped that the United States would prevent the collapse of the Soviet Union's plan in Eastern Europe.

During the same meeting, Roosevelt and Churchill signed a cooperation agreement between Britain and the United States on atomic research. Britain's own alloy tube project, which was more advanced, was merged into the Manhattan Project. The United States promised to share all the results of atomic energy research.

Even Alan Wilson, who was still in solitary confinement, said that Churchill's termination of the alloy tube project would do more harm to the British Empire than all of Prime Minister Attlee's suspected pro-Soviet moves combined.

Of course, Churchill would definitely not think that he was wrong. Just as during World War I, two battleships pushed the Ottoman Empire into the Allied camp, causing the Russian Empire to fight alone amid the siege of the Allies, which indirectly led to the birth of the Soviet Union.

Churchill was not only an American spy, but also a Soviet spy. He did not say anything about Attlee on the pro-Soviet issue.

Churchill did not think he was wrong, but believed that some things were bound to happen. When communicating with Governor Mountbatten, he asked Mountbatten to be mentally prepared from this perspective and accept the possible bad consequences. Don't think that he was the Governor-General. It can turn things around.

"I can't do anything? Can I just watch everything?" Mountbatten looked directly at Churchill and said with an unwilling tone, "But does this betray His Majesty's trust?"

"We have now even lost the ability to solve the problem of belonging to a million people." Churchill was talking about the Rohingya problem.

Of course, in Nehru's eyes, this was an Indian problem, and in Aung San's eyes, it was also an Indian problem. It was a problem between India and Burma. If Mountbatten couldn't even solve this problem, how could he convince Ali Jinnah, who was more powerful?

Seeing Mountbatten in a depressed mood,

Churchill then began to comfort him and said, "Dicky, you are a person who is widely loved by all parties. Do you remember that at the Quebec Conference, Roosevelt was full of praise for you and happily agreed to serve as the commander of the Allied Forces in Southeast Asia."

Among Roosevelt's senior British generals, Mountbatten was his favorite. He also rejected other British generals nominated by Churchill.

In the next two days, Mountbatten almost became a spectator between Nehru and Aung San, watching the two future leaders of the two countries giving advice to their heart's content. Although I knew this day was coming, my heart felt sad when I thought about it.

At this moment, Alan Wilson, who came out of the confinement room, pushed the door and entered the conference room, still carrying the dust of the confinement room, "General Aung San, long time no see, actually not long, welcome to New Delhi, along the way Still happy?"

While speaking, Alan Wilson had already pulled a chair to sit down and greeted General Aung San familiarly, "Is Myanmar's currency reform going smoothly? The negative effects have been eliminated. It is inevitable that everything will start again. You have to go through some labor pains, and the length of these labor pains depends on the willpower of the Myanmar nation itself."

Nehru frowned slightly and saw that Allen Wilson and Aung San seemed to be familiar with each other, so he said, "Assistant Allen seems to have a good relationship with General Aung San."

"It's not bad. I met him a few times last time I went to Yangon." Alan Wilson spoke calmly, without any emotion of regaining his freedom. It was as if the solitary room did not exist. Before Nehru could speak again, He said directly, "India cannot play a second-class role in the world. It must either become a powerful and powerful country or disappear! Isn't it true that it's not independent yet, so it can't wait to become a powerful country, eh?"

The words that came out of his mouth were famous quotes from Nehru's book, The Development of India, which he had written three years earlier while in a prison cell of the British colonial government in India.

Alan Wilson, who had the head start at this time, was of course released by Pamela Mountbatten herself. Now Pamela is walking in the Government House with Hyderabad Commissioner Alisa.

Of course, Alan Wilson, who is dedicated to public affairs, couldn't wait to show off his political nature and went directly to the future leaders of India and Myanmar to make his presence felt. For the time being, he had no time to think about what method Alyssa used to do it so quickly. Just help yourself to celebrate the suspicion.

You can ask about your children's personal relationship later, but there are not many opportunities in front of the independent leaders of the two countries. If you don't miss the opportunity, it won't come again. Things here are more important.

At this time, in the Garden of the Government House, Pamela Mountbatten chatted gently with Alyssa, "You are responsible for handling the matters in Hyderabad now. You are really powerful."

"What's so great? The previous commissioners also handled it this way. But when Allen was the commissioner, it was a turning point. Our relationship with Lord Ali Khan has been significantly improved." Alyssa tossed her red hair and introduced with a smile. He said, "Some of the contents of the report letter are indeed true, so it cannot be said to be false. However, since everyone did this, it cannot be said to be a mistake."

Pamela Mountbatten nodded and heard Alyssa continue, "I think it may be because I am a woman as a regional commissioner, which breaks the convention, so I am dissatisfied and framed. I almost know who it is, No one else would be so free except him."

Then Pamela Mountbatten heard that when Alan Wilson went to Hyderabad, there was another subordinate whom he valued very much. Still Alyssa's suitor.

After Alan Wilson was transferred back to Europe, there was a less harmful but extremely insulting incident of non-payment. Before the situation escalated, it was Ali Khan who sent someone to resolve the matter.

One misstep leads to eternal hatred. Not only does one lose their future, but they also lose their love. Naturally, he was not considered for the appointment of a new commissioner in Hyderabad, and the position of Hyderabad commissioner fell on Alyssa.

"So he thought your appointment was through physical exchange. I'm sorry. I know you didn't do that. I'm sorry." Pamela Mountbatten said apologetically, "This person is too bad."

"There are also bad people among the masses." Alyssa changed the topic when she said this, "The world is so unfair to women. If we want to do something, we have to bear this kind of malicious speculation."

"Yes, Alyssa, let's find a place to have a cup of afternoon tea." Pamela Mountbatten took the initiative to invite. "If it hadn't been for this matter, there would be no need for you to come in person and delay your work in Hyderabad. , I’m really sorry.”

"It's a great honor, Miss Pamela." Alyssa accepted the invitation happily. "The facilities here are much better than those in Hyderabad. It is indeed difficult to work outside. But they are all for the service of the British Empire. These are not good for me. Can overcome it.”

They were looking for a place to have afternoon tea, but Alan Wilson was still spitting nonsense in the Government House, trying to stir up the pain points between India and Myanmar regarding the Rohingya people.

He said, "I will live forever and you are all princes." The Governor might not do anything out of the ordinary out of grace, but he was different. He pressed Nehru with Gandhi's famous sayings and asked bluntly, "Is that right?" After India becomes independent, will it copy the expansion policy of the British Empire in Asia towards its surrounding small countries?”

"Of course not." Nehru said righteously, but he changed the topic and said, "But we cannot sit back and watch the legitimate rights and interests of Indians being violated and remain indifferent."

"Oh? That's right! The idea is good." Alan Wilson chuckled and said, "It shows a flexible moral bottom line. It seems that our work will be heavier again, and we should sign a clear treaty to protect the security of these small countries. "
