This is also a necessary step. Sometimes happiness must be based on the suffering of others, especially from a national perspective.
At the peak of the British Empire, even the poor people in the East End of London were proud of the British Empire.
Whether the happiness of British Malaya was based on the poverty of neighboring countries or the further Third World, a certain degree of xenophobia must be cultivated.
Alan Wilson also knows that this seems not to be said in the past, but it is easier to operate.
He used the concept of political correctness in British Malaya. Let’s not talk about whether it can be achieved. The biggest political incorrectness is that Britain is really a colonial empire. Using political correctness may backfire in the future!
With his statement as the imperial commissioner, no matter whether the man and woman involved were a coincidence or there was a true love story. Their fate was sealed, and Alan Wilson regarded him as a victim of the colonial identity.
With the attitude of the colonial government, this incident appeared in all newspapers in an instant. As for the Chinese newspapers, they regarded this incident as an immoral act. If in the Internet era, Alan Wilson's attitude was undoubtedly that of using the Internet Violence adds fuel to the fire.
Even the princess, who came to the house again to shoulder the heavy responsibility, heard about this matter that has attracted a lot of attention, "It's just a relationship with a black man, why does it seem that most of the voices are shouting about beating and killing."
"Where did the princess hear this?" Alan Wilson yawned. His sister-in-law knew about this, which was beyond his expectation, but he didn't think about it, if most people in the colony knew one thing. , but the colonial government didn’t know. Doesn’t that mean the colonial government was incompetent? Since knowing it will cause discussion, it is natural for the princess to know.
"Brother-in-law, of course you listened to what our officials said, but you seem to have the power to stop it? In this colony, what you say is the law." After Margaret answered, she asked a rhetorical question, "But if you have a relationship, you have to throw it away. Life?"
"The racial issue is like this. When it has nothing to do with you, you are justified. Let alone another race, even if you are of your own race, stoning exists in many places in the Middle East." Alan Wilson remained calm and spoke in an indifferent tone. He said, "I have no reason to abuse my power to stop it. This may cause trouble."
Alan Wilson did not say that he was in favor of making things bigger, sacrificing two lives would make it easier to achieve his goal.
"But those are two lives after all!" Princess Margaret opened her mouth, but she still couldn't do it calmly.
"Everything has a price,
Including human life. Otherwise, why would there be a profession like killer in the world? Your Royal Highness, there is a widespread problem of lynching around the world and in principle we should do something, but preferably nothing should be done. "
Alan Wilson said that with this historical norm, it is better to let nature take its course, and it is best for the princess to just pretend that she does not know.
In order to change the topic, the imperial commissioner asked the princess to sit on his lap and talked about some interesting things to change the topic.
Although the position where he placed his hands at the same time, in the dynasty period of China, would have been enough to kill the nine tribes, he was not qualified to talk about cultural traditions with righteousness.
But the whining princess didn't object. In that round, some demons and ghosts made irresponsible remarks.
"Why don't those women leave?" Princess Margaret's eyes seemed to be dripping with water, and she asked tenderly.
"I have an idea that I am discussing with them. Although these celebrities are not very rich, they are very famous. I can help you find out some non-confidential information." Ellen Wilson pursed her lips and asked her sister-in-law to light a cigarette for herself. , his hands are busy, and he really has no time now.
"What is there to discuss? You won't lie to me." Her Royal Highness the Princess put a cigarette into the imperial commissioner's mouth with a rosy face, and then lit one.
Huh... Alan Wilson said with satisfaction, "I guess Whitehall will come up with an attitude that colleagues can support. Her Highness the Princess will just watch it."
With his sister-in-law watching over him, Alan Wilson became a lot more courageous. Of course, he would not do anything based on his second brother's ideas. For example, he respected Marilyn Monroe very much. No matter how you say it, you are so conceited about your talent as prime minister, how come you can't walk when you see a beautiful woman?
When Alan Wilson passed among the thousands of flowers in the British colony, the French colony was also quite lively. The situation in North Vietnam at this time, the French army's situation was infinitely close to that of the Artillery Party in 1949. The carefully prepared offensive went through an all-out attack, a key attack, and a key defense stage in a short period of time.
Among the large cities in North Vietnam, the supplies of the Dien Bien Phu garrison completely relied on air transportation. The only thing that is more tolerable than the Artillery Party is that the Artillery Party usually doesn't even have a few good-looking defeats in its life. The French army is not as incompetent as the Artillery Party, inflicting heavy casualties on the attacking Vietnamese army.
The cause of the Battle of Dien Bien Phu was very simple. It was the use of central bloom tactics to inflict heavy casualties on the Vietnamese army. When a strong army is surrounded by a weak army, the center bloom is usually thought of. Come up with a counter-encirclement and take advantage of the situation to annihilate them all, in order to achieve the goal of turning defeat into victory.
The artillery party in the Menglianggu Battle thought the same way, and directly sent the ace unit that claimed to be able to unify the country with ten 74th Divisions.
Navarre planned to build a strong and offensive fortress there, thereby luring General Giap into a battle and then defeating him with superior firepower and equipment.
But during the fight, Navarre discovered that things were not that simple. The Vietnamese army had an unusually large number of heavy weapons. It was far from an armed force dominated by light infantry as he had thought before.
The Vietnamese army used special forces in an attempt to expand their results at the airport, but they also gradually weakened their offensive after suffering a large number of casualties.
The garrison, whose personnel were at an absolute disadvantage, suffered heavy casualties after a fierce battle, but they survived after all. Vo Nguyen Giap attempted to break through the internal defenses of the French camp. But it failed to achieve its goal with thousands of casualties. However, the losses of the Vietnamese army can be compensated, but the French cannot.
This was particularly serious for the French because the North Vietnamese were able to hold the northeastern entrance to the center of the defense, less than a mile from their central position. The defense system is restricted on all sides and the situation is dangerous. As a result, the target area for enemy artillery fire was reduced, and the airdrop of supply materials was also seriously affected.
What makes the French army even worse is that the rainy season has arrived, and the rainy season has become another major enemy of the French army. The sky was leaden and the rain was pouring, turning the dry soil into mudflows.
The Vietnamese were perfectly adapted to the conditions, but the trapped French struggled to walk in the narrow, filthy, unprotected trenches.
Heavy rain even penetrated the shelter's thin canopy. The situation of the wounded is extremely deteriorating, the surgical conditions are extremely difficult, and the wounds are quickly becoming necrotic due to infection. Dark clouds and haze hampered aerial resupply.
The heavy downpour became the last straw for the French army. At this point, Brigadier General Castries, commander of the French army at Dien Bien Phu, had to ask for help from Hanoi and Saigon. The defenders of Dien Bien Phu were no longer able to complete their previous goals.
The war in Dien Bien Phu seemed to have nothing to do with Alan Wilson, and he originally thought so. However, Alan Wilson, who received the telegram from Whitehall, got the news that the Geneva Conference to seek a peaceful solution to the Korean issue and the Indo-China Peninsula issue was about to be held. opening. The meeting was attended by 23 countries including China, the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, France, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.
Among them, the Korean War has ended, and France is fighting life and death with Vietnam, which has become the main topic of the Geneva Conference.
Britain also participated in the Geneva Conference, and its position was of course to provide France with the help it could, especially now that the Dien Bien Phu Battle was reaching a critical moment.
Whitehall once again remembered that a rising star with a knack for Eastern issues was serving as commissioner in British Malaya. I asked Alan Wilson via telegram what he thought.
"Vietnam is in the rainy season. The land route from Hanoi to Dien Bien Phu has been interrupted. The arrival of the rainy season has caused air supply to be interrupted. France can no longer hold on. I have heard that the French army is preparing to rescue, but the defenders of Dien Bien Phu are French soldiers and Foreign Legion composition, other units are not as effective as the former."
Alan Wilson immediately wrote down what he knew about the situation in a telegram, saying that the French army was not optimistic. Although the French army killed many Vietnamese soldiers, the war was not a simple exchange ratio.
"Regarding the Geneva Conference, my personal advice to the country is to help France get in touch with China if possible. China is Vietnam's largest foreign aid. As long as it has negotiated with China, Vietnam has no right to make irresponsible remarks. Not to mention Vo Nguyen Giap, A soldier like Moon Jin-yong.”
A few hours later, Alan Wilson received another telegram from London, "Is this idea feasible?"
"China's neighboring countries generally have an inner fear of China. Although China has faced the impact of Europe in modern times, to neighboring countries, it has always been that behemoth. The Vietnamese also have this fear in their hearts. The Korean War has just ended. , China has proven that its military strength has been reached through the Korean War and there is no need to start another war."
"In addition to Vietnam's inner fear of China, China does not like to have countries around it that are truly independent. If the division of North and South Vietnam is maintained and all efforts are concentrated to retain South Vietnam, I believe that even if China does not express its position on the surface, it will be very serious in its heart. Supportive.”
Instigate a relationship between comrades and brothers? Alan Wilson doesn't think so, he can only be exploited if he has his own problems.
In the historical Geneva Conference, North Vietnam itself failed to achieve the goal of reunification. Alan Wilson had real history to back it up, which directly helped London find the easiest path.
At the end of April, the most important Geneva Conference in history was held. At the same time, the Battle of Dien Bien Phu also came to an end. Both the French army and the Vietnamese army knew that the Geneva Conference had been convened. In order to increase the weight in their hands, the battle became more and more cruel.
