Chapter 771 Emperor Bao

"Actually, there are still many areas where France needs help from the UK. When we withdraw from Asia, we hope that General Mountbatten can help. You must know that in the current complex world, the two countries still have many common interests."

Walking out of the negotiation place where they met, George Pidour turned back to express his gratitude to Pamela Mountbatten who came out to see her off. Diplomats should have a flexible bottom line to deal with various emergencies, not to mention that he is the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"I have many friends who are French." Pamela Mountbatten spoke in the same tone as the man behind her.

George Pidour nodded, then raised his wrist and looked at the time and said, "I think there is no problem."

With her forehead raised, Pamela Mountbatten stood at the door and watched George Pidour leave, then turned and returned to the building. She now wanted to share the good news with her husband.

This telegram spanning thousands of miles only made Alan Wilson feel one thing wrong. France's withdrawal should be faster than in history. After shrinking from Vietnam, France did not feel that the strategy was wrong and still used military operations as its guideline. .

"It seems that the independence of the Algerians must pass a more severe test." Alan Wilson murmured to himself, and then contacted the Pacific Fleet according to the list sent by his wife. Of course, he had to go to the British consultant Only the base of the regiment will do.

"Help tell Vivian, I'm going out." Alan Wilson got dressed and came down just in time to see Xia Meng wearing a cheongsam. I have to say, his eyes lit up.

One thing about modern clothing is different from traditional clothing, that is, it can be seen by ordinary men and women on board. Traditional clothing, no matter which civilization it comes from, is unfriendly to most people.

The beauty requirements of cheongsam are even more demanding than that of Hanfu. Xia Meng, wearing a white cheongsam, has the ability to catch anyone's attention. After watching it for a while, Alan Wilson reluctantly looked back.

Faced with this aggressive look, Xia Meng felt a sudden change in her heart. She was a little afraid of this man. Her boss Vivien Leigh was already a very successful woman, and she was as comfortable as a kitten in front of this man.

"Are you afraid of me?" Alan Wilson was angry and funny. He had something to be afraid of. "I don't seem to have anything to fear, right?"

If he had time, he really wouldn't mind chatting with Mr. Jin Yong's dream girl, but he is very busy now.

Alan Wilson wanted to contact his father-in-law's subordinates in the Pacific Fleet, but then again, where were Mountbatten's subordinates? Maybe there are only Montgomery's men in Britain, who have more men than Mountbatten.

The purpose is to expand the scope of the Tokyo Bay cruise, which can also be regarded as a side goal. Lieutenant Colonel Klein is very willing to help. The purpose of being willing to help is of course with the intention of progress. There are people in the DPRK who can do things easily, otherwise he is so young. How could a colonial commissioner do whatever he wants?

Lieutenant Colonel Klein didn't know this. He had just earned the money for thirty Comet airliners for his wife.

Of course, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, there is no need to know that people have different pursuits and think very differently.

Rear Admiral George Ball is currently the commander of the cruiser squadron of the Pacific Fleet. During the Pacific Fleet that was transferred and reorganized from the Mediterranean Fleet at the end of World War II, he was Mountbatten's superior and subordinate for several months.

Two days ago, he received a telegram from Admiral Mountbatten, hoping to facilitate the French retreat. This was also an instruction from the Admiralty. Of course, he had nothing to say about it. Later, Mountbatten also mentioned in the telegram that he The son-in-law will contact him to assist the French army in retreating.

So after receiving the contact telegram from Alan Wilson, Major General George Ball readily stated that there was no problem.

Even the commander of the Pacific Fleet supports this action. He has ordered the heavy cruiser Devonshire, escorted by the frigate Amethyst, to head to Tokyo Bay at that time.

"Amethyst? This little thing hasn't retired yet?" Alan Wilson couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the familiar name.

But when I thought about it, I felt that I was overthinking it. Although the Amethyst was small, it was built very recently and served twenty years later than the heavy cruiser Devonshire. Now the Pacific Fleet has gathered a lot of old antiques, so much so that it was originally confused. When Patton was the Fourth Sea Lord, he established a fully equipped logistics base in Sarawak to deal with these old antiques.

Battleships that are almost older than Alan Wilson's father have not been decommissioned. It is normal that this small warship has not been decommissioned.

Having said that, this kind of thing should be done by a small warship like the Amethyst, not a battleship.

"Thank you Lieutenant Colonel for your help." After spending a whole day at the military base of the advisory group, Alan Wilson expressed his gratitude to Lieutenant Colonel Klein before leaving and asked, "When are you going to return to Malaya?"

"I haven't received the order yet, but I will definitely leave earlier than the French." Lieutenant Colonel Klein smiled broadly, making people feel more favorable.

Alan Wilson is a senior bureaucrat and has many movie stars who have taught him by words and deeds. Of course, he will not be fooled by the other party's "I want to make progress too much", but he still knows the basic principle of reciprocating kindness, and immediately hinted that someone like Lieutenant Colonel Klein would As a talented person, lieutenant colonel is definitely not the end of military career.

In fact, at this time, there was already a wave of fleeing in Hanoi. Some local upper-class people, beguiled by rumors of an unknown arrival, abandoned their properties and boarded ships out to sea, preparing to flee to the south to avoid the Viet Minh troops entering the city. to liquidation.

"Father, really throw away all your property and go to Saigon." In the night, on the pier by the river, the young man reluctantly faced the direction of Hanoi. The accumulated wealth was there. The determination to leave the family property and leave directly was not so easy. of.

"There is nothing we can do now. Your brother will stay and wait and see. If there is no problem, we may be able to come back after hiding for a few months." When the man who clearly has the demeanor of the head of the family spoke, the whistle of the ship at the pier was already blowing. ring.

This was like a signal. People waiting to board the ship at the pier were carrying large and small bags, dragging their families with them and squeezing up. In the middle of the night, this scene seemed extremely desolate. Of course, the crowd also included the father and his son. The father was getting stronger and stronger, and he also took care of the children brought by his two concubines, maintaining the dignity of the head of the family.

When news came that the Viet Minh was going to take over the entire north, similar scenes were being staged in the big cities in the north almost every day. Of course, this was also fueled by the French army, which still controlled some places in North Vietnam, spreading true and false news about some wealthy businessmen being hanged from street lamps, and promoting this kind of panic in the face of the Viet Minh.

Many landowners and businessmen in North Vietnam were already full of doubts about the Viet Minh coming to power. With the help of the French army, they could not tell the truth from the false and fled first. Of course, many people were ready to temporarily settle in the south and leave some relatives behind. I decided to wait and see and come back if nothing happened.

There is a large proportion of Chinese here. On the one hand, it is because the Chinese themselves came from China and have overcome their local sentiments.

Naturally, you can earn whatever you want, and overall they are wealthier than the Vietnamese-themed nation. There is another aspect. The Artillery Party collapsed a few years ago. Many Chinese have already experienced similar things. Even if the Chinese in North Vietnam have not experienced it personally, they have heard about it.

Alan Wilson knew a thing or two about the emergence of the fleeing wave, and said to Su Yang and others, "Actually, these people are more trustworthy than the Chinese compradors in South Vietnam. If you have spare time in the future, you can give more support. They have already lost Once you have achieved wealth, what do you have a saying for?"

"Taking people's money is like killing their parents?" Tian Qianqiu said, wondering if Alan Wilson wanted to say this.

"Yes, that's the sentence. When they come to South Vietnam, they are unfamiliar with the place and cannot compete with the local Chinese businessmen. They are in great need of help from outside forces. Vietnam? At least the market in South Vietnam should also be a boost to Malaya's take-off. Don't control it. Focus on the European market. The European market is certainly an industry that can feed Malaya. This is all based on the current small Malay population. You must be good at discovering new markets." Alan Wilson gave guidance with a smile. , his attitude is absolutely sincere, he just likes to help others.

"And we also have a geographical advantage. We can ship our products across the Gulf of Thailand." The speaker's name is Coca, a name that has the flavor of an old-time cultural person. He is now a representative of Chinese businessmen in British Malaya. The main industry is selling bicycles, and the sales of Daerba bicycles are still good.

"With this understanding, I will be very confident in the local economic development under my management." Alan Wilson clapped his hands in admiration and gave generous praise, "If you can establish harmony with the Chinese groups in the surrounding areas, and It’s a win-win relationship, and I believe the UK can also benefit from it.”

Although it is impossible for a colony in Malaya to compete with the United States in terms of technological content, the United States is separated by the Pacific Ocean. In terms of daily commodities, British Malaya has an absolute cost advantage, and it also has advantages over Japan and South Korea. Now we are waiting for the United States to take over, create wartime prosperity and let Malaya suck its blood.

On this day, Ellen Wilson decided to take the national treasure, as well as the iconic actresses of this era from China and Japan, around with the acquiescence of General Navarre. Why should the French Commander-in-Chief acquiesce? It was because he was going to visit the residence of the head of state in South Vietnam. Emperor Bao Dai was the former emperor of Vietnam. This must be approved by the French.

"The current head of state of South Vietnam? Was he the emperor?" Vivien Leigh followed the man out and looked at herself, "Won't it seem a little rude?"

"No, you see Her Majesty the Queen doesn't seem to care about being rude." Alan Wilson looked back and saw that those two were not as good as Vivien Leigh. He thought that he was a remnant of feudalism, and the three women were not as good as him.
