Chapter 708 The New French Commander
In fact, Paris has been very lively recently because the leader of the French Communist Party, Maurice Thorez, returned to Paris.
His return was warmly welcomed by the citizens of Paris, and the traditional constituencies that support the French Communist Party have become a sea of red.
On the one hand, it was due to the Soviet Union's claim to the final understanding of the Berlin Crisis and the role played by the French and Italian Communists. Another aspect is because Maurice Thorez has left France for three years.
After the outbreak of the Korean War, Maurice Thorez went to Moscow in the name of medical treatment and has not returned to France until now. If Alan Wilson is to judge, Maurice Thorez must have felt that his life was threatened at that time. In the name of medical treatment, he stayed in Moscow forever.
Otherwise, why would the disease take so long to be treated? And Stalin just died of illness and he was able to come back? Could it be that the death of his loving father also took away the pain from Maurice Thorez?
Maurice Thorez must not be sick and is back now. Moscow must have thought that there was little danger in Maurice Thorez returning to France and sent him back.
But this has nothing to do with Alan Wilson. His current job is to receive colleagues who have evacuated from Berlin. Eiffel has not moved for many years. Once upon a time, the two of them crossed the sea to work in Europe together.
Eiffel should not be unfamiliar with Paris. Many years ago, the two of them rescued a French woman on the streets of Paris.
During this meeting, Aiful had matured a lot, and there was a sense of vicissitudes in his eyes. Obviously, the outbreak of the Berlin crisis made him, an official on the front line of the Cold War, worried.
As an old acquaintance, Alan Wilson of course wanted to express his gratitude. He dragged his exhausted body out of Woodpecker Pictures and accompanied Eiffel around Paris. "Alan, you seem very tired?"
"Because you always work overtime?" Alan Wilson forced himself to stay strong and said feebly, "There's no way it's all for serving the empire. There's nothing to say about it."
Given the current turbulent situation, it is difficult for anyone to have any chance of respite. Aiful also nodded in agreement with Alan Wilson's words, but he was thinking about the situation in Berlin.
But that's not what Alan Wilson was thinking about. What he was thinking about was that beauty can break people's will like a wolf and a tiger. Let alone touch, they can't even think about it.
Eiffel soon regained his optimistic attitude. He had been working in Berlin for many years. At the beginning, he worked with the intention of making progress, but his enthusiasm was inevitably dampened when he stayed in the same place for a long time.
But things are different now. The Berlin crisis caused citizens to flee, and he was transferred out of West Berlin. If he could work in NATO and change the environment, he might be able to regain his enthusiasm for work.
The only thing that may be inconvenient is that in Paris, it may not be as convenient as in Berlin before, and it will be more difficult to greet all the beautiful ladies.
After hearing his colleague say this, Alan Wilson said that he can rest assured that Paris is, after all, a well-known romantic capital in the world.
As long as Ivor shows the temperament of pounds falling out of his pocket involuntarily, nothing will be a problem.
Moreover, the economic gap between France and the United Kingdom is still quite large. After all, France is still responsible for the military expenses of the Vietnam military operation, although the bulk of it is military aid from the United States. This part of the military aid flowed into the circulation of British Malaya through military orders.
The reason why British Malaya was able to develop quite well was because
France, which has been fighting fiercely in Vietnam, certainly has a share of the credit. No one can deny this.
Whether Malaya can even achieve revenue of over 100 million pounds for the first time this year based on the development of previous years depends on whether France can make up its mind to have a big game in Vietnam.
He still doesn't know that it's not just the French Communist Party that is celebrating in Paris at this time. The current French government is preparing for a big one, just as he thought, using an offensive to crush the Vietnamese resistance.
The historical wheels of the Battle of Dien Bien Phu are already rumbling. The French, who made military means their first choice after the war, will not listen to the advice of any country, not even the United States, and even less so the United Kingdom.
When the MI5 officers sent from London started to interrogate Alful and others, Alan Wilson was shocked by the appearance of an extra person. Philby?
"Why are you here?" Alan Wilson remembered that this Soviet spy was not from MI6?
"I may be transferred to the Fifth Service soon." Philby replied very calmly, "MI5 shoulders the important task of counterintelligence. For this reason, I have to accumulate experience to prevent mistakes in future work. .”
"Oh!" Alan Wilson nodded blankly. Does the British Empire really know how to choose people? Find a Soviet spy to join MI5 as counter-espionage? Then it must not be penetrated into a sieve in the future?
For a moment, Alan Wilson felt worried about the country and its people. He had done so much for this country, but it seemed that he had not made much progress.
When Eful returned this time, he was helped by Burgess, the ambassador to Germany, who was also a Soviet spy. Now another Soviet spy came to make inquiries. He now doubted whether Eful, who had been working in Berlin for many years, had rebelled.
At this critical moment, as a patriotic British official, Alan Wilson should have reported these traitors lurking in the body of the empire, but he had no evidence! This sentence is very embarrassing!
I could only suppress the mood of reporting, and returned to the Woodpecker headquarters building to sigh alone.
But before they parted, Alan Wilson remembered something, "Philby, do you know Ian Fleming?"
"Of course I know him. Maclean also worked with him, but his abilities are of no use in the Foreign Office." Philby suddenly remembered this person, "Ian Fleming is an MP. Son, when we were in MI6, we were in different departments, but because of his background, he was still highly valued, but he was less motivated."
Ian Fleming once served in MI6 and as a spy in the Security Adjustment Agency during World War II. Fleming was not a front-line espionage officer. He was mainly engaged in planning and preparation work on the rear. Fleming was deeply aware of the As Godfrey's personal assistant, he had tremendous power beyond his position and had more secrets than many senior officers in the three branches of the agency.
Philby knew Ian Fleming well, and then asked, "Alan, he seems to have been discharged from the army a long time ago. What are you asking about this man?"
"Can you do me a favor?" Alan Wilson thought. With the current popularity of the novel, Ian Fleming might cause trouble for Woodpecker Pictures over copyright issues. He did not want ladies of his wife's equal status to be troubled, and Philby happened to be here.
Philby put his hands on his hands and thought for a moment and smiled and said, "No problem, it's not a problem for me. If he arrives in Paris, I will find an opportunity to meet with him and hint that there is a risk of leaking the plot in the novel. Let him feel that there is little chance of film and television issues appearing in the market. When the time comes that he lacks confidence, your friends can talk about it."
"I feel relieved with your help." Alan Wilson sighed with a smile, "Philby, I really don't know how to thank you."
"Don't say that, Alan, I am one of ours. He has left the civil service community. Even if we had contact before, we are not the same person now." Philby replied with a smile, "We are the same person." A united group should help each other.”
Alan Wilson was immediately like a child who got candy, and he must show off in front of women to ask for treatment from God.
"Vivian is not here, and he has gone too far. Yesterday he asked me..." The next day, when a certain imperial servant was still awake, the two women were whispering.
"Are you really?" Ingrid Bergman covered her mouth with her hand and looked at the embarrassed Hedy Lamarr in shock, as if she couldn't imagine such a scene.
As the headquarters of NATO, Paris is also the capital of France. Many years have passed since the tragic world war.
The memories of the world war among Parisian citizens are somewhat blurred, and there is no trace of the war in the urban area of Paris.
But during the war, the past of having its throat cut instantly by Germany has not disappeared from the minds of governments from all walks of life after the war. For this reason, the French army could not wait to return to Asia before the situation in France stabilized.
Eight years have passed now, and the war in Southeast Asia has not yet stopped. On the contrary, it is becoming more and more intense. This trend wore away the last of the French's patience.
In the French National Assembly, members of various political parties are having heated discussions on the situation in Vietnam, and members of different factions express their opinions.
"It has become obvious that a large-scale attack must be carried out to completely crush the local armed forces. The continuous delay like now will not only not help local stability, but also consume France's national power."
As soon as the voice fell, there were continuous voices of approval ringing through the venue of the French National Assembly, "You are right, Vietnam has nearly 200,000 troops, and the expenditure is a huge consumption. We must not continue to delay."
"Quiet, since the opinions of the parliamentarians have been very unified, of course I also support it." Rene Meyer, chairman of the French Council of Ministers, stood up and said, "Now we will take a vote on military actions in Vietnam..."
Members of the entire National Assembly raised their hands. A few minutes later, the overwhelming vote to increase military investment in Vietnam was passed. After the vote, the entire National Assembly burst into cheers.
General Navarre was appointed by the government as the Commander-in-Chief of the French Army in Vietnam, urging him to make favorable improvements to the current war situation in Vietnam. The 200,000 French troops in Vietnam will be under the full command of General Navarre, and the appointment will be issued immediately.
Soon General Navarre received the transfer order. Looking at the transfer order in his hand, he sighed and accepted the appointment.
