Chapter 51

Partition occupation restricted Austria's population flow and material transportation, coupled with the original post-war labor shortage and economic depression, a difficult life was inevitable. Although Vienna was only involved in the later stages of the war, the losses suffered were not large, but this is not large because compared with Berlin, the depression of the entire city is visible to the naked eye.

After dealing with the travel issues of the citizens of Vienna, this time the negotiations between the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union have just begun. Before that, it was only to solve the problems of the citizens of Vienna. To put it best, just a few months ago, the citizens of Vienna were the enemies of the entire Allied Powers.

The introduction of a joint ID card is nothing more than a buy-in move, and it is not what everyone wants at all. The division of Vienna is very complicated. The areas occupied by the United States, Britain, and France are surrounded by the Soviet-occupied area. This is not surrounded by the Soviet-occupied area of ​​Austria, but by the Soviet-occupied area of ​​Vienna. Such a complicated division must be managed in a unified manner, and it cannot be reconciled with the Soviet-occupied area. Berlin is also in charge of its own.

After solving the small travel problems of the citizens of Vienna, the remaining control of Vienna is a major event for the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France. This is also the most important stage!

Alan Wilson proposed from the standpoint of the European liaison officer and the United Kingdom that the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France set up a joint agency to control Vienna. Once there is a problem, everyone can discuss it on the principle of the minority obeying the majority.

This suggestion was recognized by the United States and France, but it was strongly opposed by Petrov, who believed that Vienna is currently in a special situation, and the forces against the Allies are still very rampant, and they cannot relax at this time.

When it came time for the formal negotiations, Petrov was no longer warm to Alan Wilson, who had been pleasing to the eye before. Who doesn't know that you, the imperialists of the United States, Britain and France, just wear a pair of pants.

It is true that the minority obeys the majority. It must be that the United States, Britain and France sat together to discuss, and after the discussion was over, they informed the Soviet Union to implement it.

Petrov, who has realized that there is a trap ahead, of course will not step on the pit obediently. This is simply insulting his IQ and making him a traitor to the people.

"I really don't understand why the Soviet Union should oppose it. In my opinion, this is a very fair solution." Stevens spoke under the hint of Alan Wilson, "This can bring the four countries of the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France together. Putting it on a level, it should be a proposal that no one would object to, and Mr Petrov's objection is unreasonable."

As soon as Stevens finished speaking, diplomats from the United States and France immediately echoed, and they all spoke in agreement. The atmosphere of a great alliance belonging to the imperialist camp has been heightened.

"Our Soviet Union will not agree." Petrov refused to budge, and glanced at the opposite side with cold eyes. Why? Just rely on the 100,000 Soviet Red Army soldiers currently occupying Austria.

Petrov, who was backed by 100,000 Soviet Red Army, would never agree to such a proposal that might marginalize the Soviet Union on the Austrian issue. This is simply impossible.

"Mr. Petrov, we are not trying to marginalize the Soviet Union or anything like that!" Seeing the stiff atmosphere, he knew in his heart that the opponent was Allen Wilson, who was relying on the 100,000 Soviet Red Army. Only in the mouth of this special diplomat, he opened his mouth to ease the atmosphere.

The Soviet Union has a solid 100,000 occupying troops, and I have nothing here. The large forces of the United States, Britain, and France are still in Germany. If there is really a conflict, don’t you just stare?

"In fact, we have no opinion on the current division, but the headquarters of several of our countries are located in the first district. If it is managed by one country alone, then it will be disrespectful to the other three companies, isn't it?" Alan Wilson considered The language said slowly, "We are only talking about the issue of one area now."

The four-country division of Vienna occupied a total of 22 districts, of which the Soviet Union occupied 60% of the area.

The Soviet Union does not occupy much area in name, but its area is astonishingly large. The combined occupied areas of the United States, Britain, and France are only two-thirds of the Soviet-occupied area. This is too far away from dividing Berlin, which is still in the middle of the Soviet-occupied area and surrounded.

"District 1 is where the headquarters of the four countries are located and should not be managed by one country. It is located in the center of Vienna and can be connected to the occupied areas of the four countries. Let's talk about the management of District 1 now." Alan Wilson said this and emphasized, " We should consider the ideas of other countries, and now the whole world is watching us. Before Japan surrenders, our allies should start fighting among themselves, which is very shameful."

"Uh, of course we don't want to see a backward society." Petrov pondered for a while, "I'm going to ask Comrade Molotov for instructions, but I can't give you an answer for the time being."

"Thank you very much!" Alan Wilson expressed his gratitude succinctly. Molotov is considered the number two figure in the Soviet Union in the Western world. After all, it is impossible for everyone to know much about Minister of the Interior Beria.

Petrov is willing to truthfully report the situation here to the Soviet Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is already very sincere. Neither Alan Wilson nor the diplomats present could find anything wrong with this.

Back at Schönbrunn Palace, Allen Wilson said to Stevens, a diplomat stationed in Vienna, "It will take a long time for Petrov to contact the country, but we have one thing that needs to be urgently resolved. It is no longer possible If it drags on, I will go to Carinthia to see the situation and see if I can persuade the Yugoslavs to go back."

Carinthia is the southernmost state of Austria. It is currently divided into the British-occupied area of ​​Austria, bordering Slovenia and Italy to the south, where it happens to be next to Tito's opponents in Yugoslavia.

Although there are many countries established with a single ethnicity in Europe, some Slovenians live in the southern part of Carinthia. These Slovenians also played a role in attracting Yugoslav refugees.

Alan Wilson's destination is Carinthia, to persuade Yugoslav refugees to return to their own country, or fail! It depends on which future is more beneficial to Britain.

Klagenfurt, the capital of Carinthia, is a large city in southern Austria, with convenient air, rail or road transportation. It is also the actual center of the British-occupied Austria.

In Vienna, Petrov was in a hurry, and Alan Wilson didn't even take a breath, and came here directly, performing a slap in the face, "Send me the information on Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia immediately, and now there are borders. How many people are there, and where are they stationed?"
