Chapter 786 McCarthy’s Visit

There is no doubt that this is a kind of deterrence, especially what France wants to achieve, otherwise France would not offer to provide a test site. Vietnam's withdrawal has not yet been completed, but it is obvious that France is already looking for its next opponent.

London is fully aware of the French's intentions, and the cabinet certainly knows that France is borrowing Britain's current power to achieve its own goal of intimidating the colonies. I agreed because there are also a large number of British colonies in Africa. From this point of view, the two countries have common interests and can also demonstrate the unity of the two countries. After comprehensive consideration, I agreed to France's request.

Not only Britain and France, but Moscow and Washington also know it clearly, but the real big events will not be reported. Regarding this nuclear test, the United States and the Soviet Union only made regular reports, saying that it was enough to know about it.

The hard-working Malayan Commissioner also has his own affairs. He has done a lot of work in South Vietnam this year. Seeing that the year is approaching, he must do some things within his duties, such as dealing with the backlog of official duties, building camps to increase garrison troops, and a series of supporting measures.

After careful consideration, the construction of the barracks should be located in Sabah, which required the approval of the local monarch Ali Khan. This is not difficult. Ali Khan has expressed his willingness and even wants to take the initiative to help build the camp.

After the destruction of the Hyderabad state, Ali Khan now saw the British colonial troops as if he were seeing relatives.

The problem on the British side is not big, at least not as big as the French. Although the French army is withdrawing, the situation in South Vietnam is still unstable. According to the Geneva Agreement, the Viet Minh will only take over North Vietnam this year, and South Vietnam is still under the control of the French Expeditionary Force. Refugees are gathering from all directions towards South Vietnam, and the evacuation of refugees south is still continuing. At the same time, all the Viet Minh guerrillas in the south have not withdrawn northward. They are mobilizing more people to go to North Vietnam and are waiting for the French Navy to send warships to send them away.

Americans will never intervene in a place as a country, euphemistically claiming to play the role of allies, so who is the country that provides assistance to South Vietnam to the best of its ability? the Philippines……

In this era, the Philippines looks like a beacon of democracy in Asia. Under the initiative of the United States, it formed a medical team and sent a large number of doctors and nurses to Vietnam. It is now helping people who fled to South Vietnam to check their health and receive medical treatment.

In fact, it’s not that the free world won’t do this kind of act of buying people’s hearts, it just won’t last long.

For the current Britain and France, strengthening unity is almost inevitable. Fundamentally, the United States opposes colonial rule and hopes that all nations can gain independence. It even quoted the United States' Declaration of Independence when declaring independence at the end of World War II. But in Europe, the free world was facing a challenge from the Soviet Union.

If it did not support Britain and France, the Soviet Union would probably continue to expand in Europe. Therefore, on the one hand, the United States opposed colonial rule, and on the other hand, it supported the French colonial rule in Vietnam. Different places have different response routes, and the United States can naturally find a logical and self-consistent statement.

The United States can do this to the French colonies, and of course it can do the same to the British colonies. Alan Wilson didn't want the colony he managed to be favored by the Americans, although it was only a matter of time.

After the French left, Malaya was very prominent, but it was not like he had done nothing over the years. At least the Netherlands and Portugal still had military power, and Australia and New Zealand supported the existence of the Malayan colony.

In any case, British Malaya and Indonesia are not bordering on land now. This is due to the original support for the Dutch to evacuate to Kalimantan. This has led to the fact that although Indonesia is very close, it is not so threatening.

The sea is still Britain's home field. Although the U.S. Navy surpassed the Royal Navy after the war, but who is the winner? At least for Indonesia, the Royal Navy is still a behemoth that the Indonesians cannot overcome. Back then, the Netherlands was able to bombard Jakarta, and its strength was far greater. The Royal Navy, which is stronger than the Netherlands, can do it even more easily.

In fact, this is exactly the case. When the Royal Navy launched an artillery bombardment on Haiphong Port in October, Indonesians were reminded of the smoky scene in Jakarta under the main guns of the battleships.

"The key is value!" Alan Wilson was holding a cigar in front of the window. For the British, the constant payment of money by the colonies meant that there was no value. Compared with the continental thinking in the French people's hearts, the British politicians who paid more attention to interests had an account in their minds.

Isn't this increase in the size of the British troops stationed in Malaya because Malaya's steel production has indeed expanded?

Giving up colonies is the general trend, but retaining a few key areas is not too much. Especially now, when France is still unclear about Algeria's future, Britain cannot do nothing.

The British should accept that it cannot be compared with the United States and the Soviet Union, but how can the British accept it if it cannot be compared with France?

As we continue to live a busy and happy life, it’s time to send birthday wishes to Hedy Lamarr and Vivien Leigh again. At times like this, Alan Wilson can find the motivation to work. The only news is not very happy.

The royal family wants the princess to go back. He has made great progress in the prostitution business recently. If the princess wants to go back at this time, it may interrupt the gradually heating up environment.

But fortunately, the princess made a promise that she would find a way to come back after Christmas and New Year's Day. This solemn guarantee finally made the Imperial Commissioner, who was worried that his hard work would be in vain, feel slightly relieved.

In Hedy Lamarr's call back, apart from the heart-warming birthday wishes, the rest was about the release of Zero 07: Moscow, which may not be approved quickly in the UK.

Alan Wilson could help, and Lord Magins of Sheffield was the official in charge of this. Of course, some investment in connections is essential. In his telegram to Hedy Lamarr, he said that Woodpecker Pictures could try to sign Marks' mistress, which might have unexpected results.

"After New Year's Day, I will come to Kuala Lumpur to see you." Hedy Lamarr's call back always goes straight to the point, which is heart-warming to watch.

Just when Alan Wilson, who was working two jobs, was worried about the profitability of the British colony this year, a piece of news ruined his good mood. Bogor is a famous city in West Java, Indonesia. Also known as Bogor, located about 60 kilometers south of Jakarta, Bogor is a well-known cool place, cooler than other tropical cities.

The prime ministers of the five South Asian countries arrived in Bogor one after another. This meeting initiated by India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Ceylon, and Pakistan decided that the five participating countries would jointly sponsor the Asian-African Conference.

"Why are you joining in the fun? What does Nehru want to do? Do you really think we can't do anything to him?" Alan Wilson held the newspaper and said to Alyssa, "There is also a Royal Navy base in Ceylon, how dare they? "

"Commissioner, after all, Ceylon is too close to India. Some things cannot go against India's ideas." Alyssa shrugged and explained, "Our base cannot make Ceylon and India become hostile. And this time meeting, at least nominally both the United States and the Soviet Union recognized it."

"Recognize? Yes, both of them want us to be like the French and get out of the colonies." Alan Wilson said with a nose that is not a nose but a face, "What does London say? They should try to get us to join in, no?" Are there two days left? Can you join us?"

By now, Alan Wilson had tried his old trick, jumping in and letting the meeting go nowhere.

Alyssa shook her head and said, "It may be difficult. Whitehall made a similar suggestion, but Nehru vetoed it."

"He is really cowardly now." Alan Wilson sneered angrily, "I didn't dare to talk to Britain like this at first, but it's different now. The leader of a powerful country doesn't take Britain seriously anymore."

Nehru's reason for rejection was naturally that this was a meeting of emerging countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. This is just an excuse. At least the five countries this time are all former colonies of the United Kingdom. Why shouldn't the United Kingdom participate?

It is clear that Nehru now felt that India was the leader of the Third World and began to dream of becoming a great power.

"Pakistan is also a bunch of losers and does not have the spirit of Jinnah." After scolding Nehru, Alan Wilson pointed the finger at Pakistan. It was obviously beaten once by India, and now it is still following India's rear, which is disgraceful.

In his heart, Alan Wilson is not clear that the current diplomatic environment in India is very good. Although Pakistan has a good relationship with the United States, the United States is not willing to firmly support Pakistan to prevent India from falling into the arms of the Soviet Union.

You must know that Indian Prime Minister Nehru was originally very inclined to the Soviet system. If the United States caused trouble, India would have a closer relationship with the Soviet Union, which would be quite detrimental to the world structure.

Two days later, McCarthy's call back made Alan Wilson a little happier. Historically, McCarthy had already begun to be unlucky, but there was no such sign now.

He had invited McCarthy to Malaya several times, but there had been no response, but this time McCarthy said he would come to Malaya to stay for some time before Christmas. The reasons for this change were also revealed in the telegram. This telegram also mentioned the Bogor Conference to be held by the five South Asian countries.

"These five countries were all British colonies in the past, so London has no idea of ​​doing any work?"

Faced with the questions in McCarthy's telegram, Alan Wilson could only tell the truth, and explained that it would be better for Britain and the United States to discuss how to deal with this matter. The two could discuss the meeting first.

McCarthy then informed him of the time when he would come to Malaya to see if he could prevent the opening of the conference. McCarthy came very quickly this time, already appearing in Kuala Lumpur on the first day of December.
