A few hours later, Alan Wilson was already on the top floor of the Woodpecker Pictures headquarters building, making coffee and reading newspapers about the Battle of Kimseong, which was the last battle of the Korean War and lasted until the day of the armistice.
It can be said that at this moment, the Korean War is over. After nearly three years of tug-of-war, the situation in the Far East has not changed significantly, let alone the world situation?
However, Alan Wilson knows that things are not as they appear on the surface. Japan has recovered its blood after the war, and China has proven its military combat effectiveness, especially the latter, which cannot be reflected in data.
It also had an impact on South Korea. The main force in the Battle of Jincheng was the Korean army. Although it was still a loser, the Korean army in the Battle of Jincheng was no longer like it was at the beginning of the Korean War, when they heard the Chinese coming and fled immediately.
After the United States entered the positional warfare stage, it also achieved results in its rearmament and reorganization of the South Korean army.
However, Alan Wilson knew that the South Korean army's ability to stabilize its position was a counterexample to the United States.
It's just that the United States is still in the joy of effectively transforming the South Korean military and has not discovered this.
The performance of the Korean army in the Battle of Jincheng gave the United States the illusion that it could reorganize and transform the host country's military and make this army a support force for the US military. In fact, in the future, the United States will almost never encounter combat capabilities again. Not a bad servant army, but the arming of the South Vietnamese army was a complete failure.
Reorganizing the South Vietnamese army along the lines of reorganizing South Korea failed to preserve South Vietnam in the end.
"If the Korean army's defeat in the Battle of Jincheng was more humiliating, the Americans might think more about taking over from France." Alan Wilson thought as he put down the newspaper in his hand.
History does not simply repeat itself. The hundreds of thousands of weapons and equipment left by the United States to the South Vietnamese army eventually became part of the North Vietnamese army.
It's time to spread the domino theory when we return to Kuala Lumpur, Alan Wilson thought.
Vietnam was divided into North and South parts. At that time, the United States was worried that if North Vietnam were unified, the rest of Southeast Asia would fall like dominoes. This theory was proposed by the current President of the United States, Eisenhower.
Alan Wilson, who was thinking about the next stage of his work, did not notice Ingrid Bergman coming out of the bathroom. Ingrid Bergman had long hair shawl and was wearing a white men's shirt. Otherwise, she was not wearing anything else. Looking at the man sitting there, he said, "The water has been put away.
The water temperature is just right, just enough to relieve your fatigue. "
"You won't help me relieve my fatigue." Alan Wilson glanced around, swallowed and stood up, "I think I have to work overtime again."
"Oh, right!" With a charming smile, Ingrid Bergman began to persuade her, "That's really not good news. After all, it is manual labor, the working environment is humid, and the visibility is low."
"Then what can I do?" Alan Wilson had already stepped forward and put a hand on Ingrid Bergman's shoulder. "That's how people are. At first I just wanted to know your name, and gradually I figured it out. What do you want to call me..."
"You little scoundrel!" Ingrid Bergman put her head aside and followed the man's hand into the bathroom. It was a hot day, so it was reasonable to take a bubble bath.
Hedy Lamarr has gone to the United States. Currently, there are only two Swedish actresses in charge of Woodpecker Pictures. Greta Garbo is not so much a manager as she is living in seclusion in Paris, staying at home every day just like she is in New York. When I go out, the biggest activity is just taking my son for a walk.
This is not possible. Alan Wilson feels that Greta Garbo's death can be postponed again. Isn't there a script for Zero Zero Seven? While the appearance is still there, a classic image is left behind.
"For this kind of movie series, you want to use my influence to expand the influence of the first movie and lay a solid foundation for the future." Greta Garbo tilted her head and said expressionlessly.
"My dear, what I admire most about you is that no matter what time you are, you always look calm and calm." Alan Wilson reached out and rubbed the other person's plumpness, just like Greta just after the Anglo-Swedish war. ·It’s like Jiabao is not a party involved.
Greta Garbo turned a blind eye to the man's actions and didn't even think about stopping him. She stood up from the bed and said, "It's time, I want to change the baby's diaper."
It is very normal for a deputy secretary-general of the Overseas Asset Management Committee to inspect British overseas assets in Paris, so it is also very normal for him to walk around in Rome.
He has made an appointment with a lady who lives in Paris temporarily and has the same status as his wife, and must keep going to Kuala Lumpur frequently. Lord Nakatō serves the country, and logistics must keep up.
He also bought an Italian fairy tale in Rome and made outstanding contributions to Italy's economic development.
Italian folktales, passed down orally, were recorded in literary form long before any other country. It’s not like Britain doesn’t have stories about Italy, such as Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice.
After leaving Italy, there were no overseas assets to inspect in person. Hepburn could see that Alan Wilson was reluctant to part with him, "Your sadness is almost visible to the naked eye."
Alan Wilson pretended to be affectionate and said something, "Really, I don't know why I am so depressed. You said you felt bored when you saw me like this. In fact, I felt very bored myself; but how could I I have no idea what this kind of sadness is or where it comes from; sadness has turned me into a fool, and I simply don’t understand myself.”
"I'm not serious about traveling far away." Hepburn rolled her eyes at the man, and then said seriously, "No matter how big the difficulty is, it won't be a problem for you. The hardships that fate throws at you will eventually become the motivation for you to proceed."
Alan Wilson involuntarily straightened his back, reached out to touch Hepburn's cheek, and said confidently, "As long as I think about what kind of disaster a storm on the sea will cause. If I go to the church and see that How could I not immediately think of those dangerous rocks, the sacred temples made of stones, which, as long as they touched the side of my good ship, would pour the whole ship's spices into the water and let the raging waves Wearing my silk and silk ribbons; it was priceless just now, but it’s all gone in the blink of an eye?”
"Your destiny does not lie in momentary considerations, and your wealth does not lie in a round-trip journey. These things should not make you feel sad." Hepburn looked at Alan Wilson affectionately, and said the same nonsense. talk.
"The key is love!" Alan Wilson no longer speaks in Shakespearean language, but expresses the true emotions in his heart.
"Especially love!" Hepburn replied the same way, showing that she understood the man's words from beginning to end, and also gave a positive answer.
This puts me at ease! Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief. If he kept going around like this, he would have nothing left in his stomach. After all, his knowledge reserve in this area is far from being as accomplished as he is in the field of political affairs.
Alan Wilson wished that there was no such person as Shakespeare in British history, but there was no way, this man existed. And as a civil servant, you must also understand this.
Sometimes when he reads Shakespeare's works, he feels that the thing in them is a complete clown, who would rather die in the midst of laughter and laughter, but a passionate person still wants to sit upright.
The two kissed goodbye, and after the Dubai Airport project had been launched, Alan Wilson returned to Kuala Lumpur after being away for more than half a year. He was still enthusiastic about his work in Malaya.
Back home, he had to carefully deal with the Prime Minister and Cabinet Secretaries, but here he could find the feeling of being true to his word. If a husband does not have enough food to eat when he is alive, he will have enough food when he dies. Without this understanding, what kind of colonial commissioner would he be?
"Give me all the information you have about the French army on the peninsula!" The moment he entered the Kuala Lumpur Administrative Office, Alan Wilson had rediscovered the feeling of a colonial commissioner.
General Navarre arrived in Vietnam in May and took over as commander-in-chief. The total strength of the French army is now 180,000, including 54,000 French troops, 20,000 Foreign Legion troops, and 30,000 North African troops, mainly Moroccans and Algerians. people, 10,000 in the air force, 5,000 in the navy and 70,000 composed of Vietnamese.
Among these 180,000 people, we must first eliminate the 70,000 Vietnamese soldiers who are similar to the puppet army. The North African army is also composed of colonial soldiers and has combat effectiveness. What it can rely on is the French army and the Foreign Legion, with a troop size of about 70,000 to 80,000.
With an army of this size, we can understand why the French army was wiped out less than 20,000 people in the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, which brought the situation to an uncontrollable point and the mobile troops had been annihilated.
General Navarre, who arrived in Vietnam, quickly discovered that the situation was not favorable to the French army, but he immediately recognized the weakness of his command and formulated a long-term plan. The plan is based on increasing troop mobility, increasing troop strength, and receiving assistance from the United States. Navarre sent the plan back to Paris, but it was not approved.
Alan Wilson quickly learned about the situation of the French army in Vietnam, thought for a while and said, "For propaganda against Australia and the European countries with colonies around Southeast Asia, we must focus on the domino theory and create an impression on Washington. After the Korean War, , Moscow launched another offensive, and if all of Vietnam fell, it would only be a matter of time before all of Asia would be controlled by the Soviet Union."
"General Navarre actually discussed with General Bilton about the British army providing help, but General Bilton refused on the grounds of dealing with Indonesian infiltration operations."
"It's the right thing to do, and there's nothing we can do about it." Alan Wilson agreed upon hearing this. It's better not to join in the fun of Vietnam with a small body like the United Kingdom. Only the United States has this ability.
