Chapter 788 The Palms and Backs of the Hands Are Full of Flesh

When the walking British-American special relationship came to Kuala Lumpur, Alan Wilson naturally couldn't take it lightly, so he prepared to go to the airport to greet him. Pamela Mountbatten naturally followed. On the way to the airport, he mentioned the latest news about the discovery of oil in the North Sea. The report said, "There is no accurate evidence yet. I have been looking for it for several years."

"Speaking of this issue, the demarcation of the North Sea and surrounding countries seems to have not been noticed by the cabinet. It is not too late to do work in this area." Alan Wilson was sitting in the co-pilot's seat and accidentally remembered about the ocean demarcation issues.

In this era, Britain has not yet drawn maritime boundaries with neighboring countries, so it is more appropriate to explain that it has not yet turned a corner.

In the past, the British Royal Navy was the most powerful in the world. With such strength, the UK naturally did not need to take off its pants and fart. Any sea area was an inland sea for the UK.

Today is different from the past. A special branch like the navy is almost nothing if it is not number one.

Especially after the advent of the ironclad era, there is no possibility of attacking the strong with the weak.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Royal Navy can still call countries other than the United States "Dad" because of its strength, it will definitely take advantage of it in terms of demarcation.

Once the demarcation is completed, it is even more difficult to change it. If you don’t believe it, just look at the demarcation between Greece and Turkey. Turkey wishes it could swim out of the country, but so what, since the demarcation is already a foregone conclusion.

"Are you sure there must be oil in the North Sea?" Pamela Mountbatten asked, holding the steering wheel and focusing on two tasks. Her husband once said there might be oil offshore Newfoundland, but he still couldn't find it.

"There is no such thing as 100%, but even if it is for the North Sea fishing ground, we must try to preserve it." Alan Wilson seemed to have something in mind when he said this. "In fact, the country still has a large number of islands in its hands. These islands are not large in area. But it covers a large ocean area. If oil resources can be discovered in the North Sea or Newfoundland, I believe the government will also pay attention to these inconspicuous islands."

"It seems that only the country is good?" Pamela Mountbatten rolled her eyes at her man, obviously not satisfied with this answer.

"If oil is discovered, it will also be of great benefit to my father. Every island may have oil and gas resources offshore. If there is a Gulf of Mexico, will the navy be needed to protect it? Then the importance of the navy will be reflected." Alan Wilson told My wife followed the instructions and explained the joints.

The Mountbatten Group's exploration teams are now everywhere, but even so, there is no guarantee that the oil and gas areas in Alan Wilson's memory can be found. He can only remember the approximate location, delineate a location and search slowly.

North Sea oil is of great significance to Britain. Other oil and gas areas are in the colonies. The North Sea is a reliable energy source that can be used by the local people. Even if the cabinet does not agree to private exploration after discovery, Pamela Mountbatten can still discuss the issue of nationalization with the government. .

There would be no greater loss than selling Algerian oil to the French. You must know that Attlee's entire nationalization campaign used 2 billion pounds to acquire private companies.

Alan Wilson also comforted his wife's frustration at not being able to find oil and gas areas, "They are all a geological structure, and what is discovered now is definitely not all the oil and gas in the North Sea."

Sporadic oil resources in the North Sea were discovered a hundred years ago, when the Wieze Oilfield was discovered near Hannover in northern Germany. Through systematic exploration of similar salt domes and associated anticlines, some seventy oil fields were discovered, producing three million barrels of oil per year, mostly from Lower Cretaceous and Jurassic reservoirs.

Twenty years ago, the Netherlands also discovered some small oil and gas reserves in the territory and started some oil production. The UK has also conducted exploration in the North Sea, but so far, none of what has been discovered has much mining value.

Before arriving at the airport, Pamela Mountbatten, who had been making little progress in the North Sea, finally regained her morale. The two got off the car at the same time, and soon discovered the traces of the McCarthys. They were far away, and Alan Wilson waved in greeting.

"Joseph,

I heard that you are making a big splash in the United States. "When they met, Alan Wilson spoke with a sincere smile and mentioned the fact that McCarthy was unparalleled in the limelight in the United States today.

"Alan, I wonder what kind of happy water you have prepared?" McCarthy was also very familiar with her. If his wife hadn't been right next to him, they would have hugged each other.

Although they have not seen each other for a long time, the special relationship between Britain and the United States has not faded, and the two have maintained communication. Once it became a habit, McCarthy found that his British friend often had unique insights on some things.

A few minutes later, the McCarthys were on the Silver Ghost, excited to see what the jurisdiction run by their friends was like.

Alan Wilson's aesthetics have always been very general. To sum up, the buildings should be symmetrical, large, and the streets wide. The layout of Kuala Lumpur is also based on this standard, but overall it is passable.

Kuala Lumpur also has certain characteristics of a tropical city, and there is no shortage of diversity. This city has Chinese, Malay and Indian characteristics, which can naturally be seen at a glance.

Today, it is difficult to imagine that this place evolved from a gathering place for miners to the capital of British Malaya today.

The only thing that worried McCarthy was that he saw too many Chinese faces. He was worried about the safety of his friends. "How many Chinese are there? Will there be trouble?"

"Probably a little more than fifty percent." In the blink of an eye, Pamela Mountbatten had parked her car in front of a hotel. Alan Wilson got off the car and chatted with McCarthy, and also revealed some of the real situation in Malaya.

Needless to say, there is no need to say much about pushing cups and changing cups, and the two men's discussions along the way are inevitable. They are all heroes who intend to prove the truth through key points. The topic cannot leave the international situation and lay the foundation for the truth.

McCarthy did not hide the purpose of coming to Malaya. With the help of alcohol, he revealed everything. Regarding the behavior of a country that feels good about itself and wants to declare itself the leader of the Third World, the United States does not say anything on the surface, but of course it is dissatisfied in its heart.

Why India? It is true that with India's population and area, the United States is willing to give some sweeteners and let Indians entertain themselves. For example, during the Korean War and the Geneva Conference, it acquiesced to some of India's cross-border moves.

"Joseph, I have been an assistant to the Commissioner of India. If you talk about other countries, I may not have the right to speak. But this country? I can only say that on a personal level, Indians are easy to contact, but on a national level From a perspective, this country is quite unreasonable and only wants to take advantage rather than suffer losses."

Alan Wilson did not expect that one day he would be able to have contact with India, but his friend McCarthy asked. As a friend, he would not be a friend enough if he did not tell the truth. "About the eve of the evacuation of India, many colleagues and I felt that India Those people in Helu are very ambitious. He has a mysterious fondness for the Soviet Union."

"Why didn't the British kill this man?" McCarthy asked without thinking, "This way everything will be solved and we won't have to worry today."

"Joseph, it's not that simple. At first, Patel's behavior seemed to be more radical. And Nehru's true nature has not yet been exposed. How do we know that Patel died just after independence?"

A dead man would not object to Alan Wilson's nonsensical shirk of responsibility, and Patel, now a man with bones, would not object to the definition given to him by the two people who represent the special relationship between Britain and the United States today.

Explaining the original dilemma of the British, Alan Wilson returned to the essence, and reminded the United States overtly and covertly that India was a target to be on guard against. His glorious era was back, and he was still the assistant commissioner of British India, so high-spirited, and so charming. People are eloquent and eloquent.

"What Allen means is that it was not possible to judge Nehru's tendency at the time." Pamela Mountbatten couldn't help but explain when she saw her husband recalling the glorious past.

Pamela Mountbatten couldn't help it because she couldn't stop talking about British India. She thought her husband had a special mentality towards India, but she didn't know why.

"Pamela is right. We couldn't judge at the beginning, but now we can see Nehru's performance after independence. Our concerns are correct." Alan Wilson expressed his disapproval of Nehru and said uncertainly , "Is this Bogor Conference trying to form a third force in the world and make the already very delicate situation more complicated?"

The five South Asian countries of the Bogor Conference actually have another identity as the initiators of the Bandung Conference. Speaking of the famous Bandung Conference in later generations, the protagonist who stole the show was of course Nehru.

It was Nehru who made the contact, and Tito of Yugoslavia and Nasser of Egypt took the initiative to convene it. As for China, it was Nehru who made the invitation, giving China the opportunity to show its face at such an international meeting.

"Third party forces? Nehru is taking it for granted!" McCarthy said sarcastically. "As you said, Nehru was very ambitious, and Washington also noticed this. We wanted to participate in the meeting. But Nehru refused. ”

Nehru had the guts! Alan Wilson secretly thought that this is what the leader of the Third World, the leader of the third camp independent of the United States and the Soviet Union, should do.

Thinking this in his mind, he frowned and said, "Nehru also rejected Britain's proposal to participate in the conference. Due to the traditional relationship between Britain and India, we do not want to see this scene."

This is of course a lie. India's import and export trade is settled in pounds. How can the UK be biased against India? Not only does it not apply to India, but it does not apply to China either. The reason is that there are British assets in China.

"The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh!" Alan Wilson was very troubled. The United States was more qualified to intervene in this kind of thing.
