Chapter 1152 – Living and Learning

“Just what exactly are you going to do?” Alan Wilson was able to sacrifice himself and also wanted the Queen of Sweden to give himself a piece of mind, didn’t he? After all, this was no small matter.

“Didn’t you talk to me about diplomatic tactics? Since it’s an inspection, you need a hospital. Any result can be artificially molded as long as it passes through human hands.” Greta Garbo replied with a grimace, “All it takes is a fourth-order tactic to fix this.”

First we claim that nothing happened to Hepburn. Then we claimed that it might be manageable, but that Hepburn’s constitution doesn’t make it easy to get pregnant. Then we inform Hepburn herself that action should be taken, but with consequences in mind.

Finally, the hospital informs Hepburn that if she is forced to remove the baby, she may regret it for the rest of her life later.

Alan Wilson, with a mushy face and a leathery smile, spoke, “You’re really living and learning.”

“It’s all from your words.” Greta Garbo, still with that breezy look on her face, asked rhetorically with a sidelong glance, “So what exactly do you think, or forget it.”

“I just feel that cheating on her would make me morally guilty.” Alan Wilson had a stony look on his face, which, admittedly, was just an excuse to convince himself.

“You can’t feel guilty about something you don’t have.” Greta Garbo had no trouble exposing the hypocritical side of the English gentleman, “Hurry up and answer me, and I’ll make the arrangements.”

“I tell you there are very few people in England nowadays, except Sir Norman, who talk to me in that way.” Alan Wilson took on the tone of one who had been strong all his life, and then bowed decisively to the supreme authority.

Greta Garbo had a wistful look on her face, and to this man it must become routine for her to win.

It was left to the Swedish National Treasure to run the show, and Allen Wilson still focused on trivial matters for the time being, such as the national cooperation programs of the European Number One Offshore Balance and the Number Two Offshore Balance.

The UK and Sweden can’t be said to be in the same league as each other when it comes to the point of offshore balancing in Europe, but they can be said to be in the same league of heroes.

Only now, the traditional threat has waned, and both nations should now be confronted with a never-before-seen behemoth, a behemoth that once also competed with Sweden for supremacy and, in the Great Northern War, personally overthrew the hegemony of the Swedish Empire.

There was no lasting threat to Europe, and Russia was not at enmity with the rest of Europe, the USSR and later Russia had been ostracized for one reason and one reason only, and that was American control of Europe.

How was it that before WWI, Britain and France were able to shake hands with Imperial Russia and have a Triple Entente? How could Imperial Russia be allied with Germany and Austria before that? Was Imperial Russia small at that time? Imperial Russia was bigger than the USSR, so how could it join forces?

Why can’t they do that after the USSR? The reason is that the USSR fell, and the US, which controlled Europe, was still there and didn’t want to leave Europe, so Russia had to be the enemy.

Russia being the enemy of Europe is simply a false proposition, and even though the Soviet Union, which is getting stronger and stronger, is obviously a huge threat, the NATO countries in Europe are now talking to the Soviet Union in a calm manner.

So like the current Sweden, obviously all moves are to prevent the Soviet Union to expand its influence in Northern Europe, but also must publicly announced that Sweden is a neutral country, will not join NATO containment of the Soviet Union, blah blah blah ……

Full proof of the truth that if you’re strong and you fart, it makes sense, and if you’re weak and you make sense, it’s all just farting.

The technology carried by the British-supplied TSR.2 attack aircraft, codenamed Thor by the Swedish side, was the subject of more than a hundred proposals by Saab designers for the development of the new aircraft, including: the use of the rocket engine “Project 1325”; the use of a similar “Dragon” style double-delta wing; and the use of the “Dragon” style double-delta wing. “Project 1372, with a double delta-wing structure similar to the Dragon; Project 1400, a vertical take-off and landing fighter-attack aircraft; Project 1421, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.8; and Project 1421, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.5; and Project 1421, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.8. “Project 1421, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.8; and Project 1443, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.3 and a shape modeled after the Mirage III.

The Raytheon program was formalized when the British offered to provide the technical support carried on the TSR.2 attack aircraft.

Alan Wilson expressed his interest in British-Swedish cooperation, but he was not as happy as he appeared to be because he had already seen the design of the program, how can I put it?

Ever since he had seen India’s famous Glory, he had an instinctive resistance to the Mirage III, and the Raider, with its delta-wing and duck-wing layout.

But the Swedes thought the program was fine, and the TSR.2 attack aircraft was also a large delta-wing layout, he could not say anything, Saab also thanked the British side of the technical support, Alan Wilson told himself, the Indians can not, the Swedes, line ……

“I’m going to stay in Stockholm for a while.” By the time Alan Wilson returned, Hepburn, sitting like a lady with a melancholy air on her face, seemed to have made such a momentous decision.

“What’s the matter, dear.” Alan Wilson, with an anxious face, squatted down in front of the ball flower and held the other’s arms in both hands, as if grieving for the other’s sorrow.

Hepburn eyes gradually filled with tears, pursed her lips and looked at Alan Wilson, whispered, “I have, now must stop working, I want to give birth to the child.”

“You do this, the sacrifice is too great.” Allen Wilson spoke with a mixture of surprise, his head lowered and buried in Hepburn’s lap, knowing that Greta Garbo’s fourth-order tactic had succeeded.

It didn’t matter how it worked, it was how he reacted now, and at this moment, Alan Wilson brought out the acting skills trained by many movie queens, supplemented by the experience exercised by the Foreign Office.

Details are not needed to ask, Alan Wilson at this time more suitable to show the state, is born to fall out of the pie.

He doesn’t ask what’s happening, and with a gesture of ignorance makes Hepburn feel that he’s looking forward to the birth of this child.

The effect was very good, and this reaction cleared Hepburn’s head a little at once; it was an opportunity for a man and a woman to play the game, and she could take advantage of it to make an impression on Alan Wilson, with a guilty heart, and a man of equal status with her husband would be sure to take extra care of her in the future.

Also in Stockholm, Greta Garbo sat quietly in her home, shaking her wine glass and drinking to herself, as if she had thought of something funny, a trace of amusement rarely appeared on her face.

“Mother, what are you laughing at?” This scene was just happened to be bumped into by a teenager, very surprised to inquire.

“Go and study properly, don’t meddle in the affairs of adults.” Greta Garbo cast a sidelong glance at her son and said in an undeniable manner.

The difficult problem that plagued Allen Wilson was so solved, in fact, looking back carefully, it wasn’t that he couldn’t come up with fourth order tactics, but he couldn’t get past the hurdle in his heart. Greta Garbo helped him a lot.

Sweden’s climate is just a little better than other Nordic countries, Stockholm bears the aftermath of the North Atlantic Warm Current, shaping Sweden’s position as the center of Northern Europe.

There are always houses in certain provincial urban areas that are as dismal to look at as the gloomiest abbey, the most depressed wilderness, or the most dilapidated ruin you’ll ever see.

Perhaps the silence of the abbey, the desert of the wilderness, and the decay of the ruins, are all combined in those houses. The occupants lived so quietly that outsiders would have thought them uninhabited and empty; but when a stranger moved in the street, a motionless face would suddenly peep out of the window, and, like a monk, glance coldly and gloomily out of it.

Though cold in winter, hot in summer, and very gloomy in spring and fall, Stockholm is still not a bad place to live.

Alan Wilson actually preferred to take Hepburn back home with him, but Greta Garbo asked rhetorically, Do you have time to look after Hepburn’s feelings at all times? When the permanent undersecretary shook her head, she said, “But I have ……”

“I can’t deny that, time really doesn’t seem to mean much to a lady who can stay out of the house for years at a time.” Alan Wilson inquired helplessly, “Not thinking about transitioning to being a writer? Quite fitting for you.”

“Honorable Sir, shouldn’t you be thanking me?” Greta Garbo smiled, “How much have I helped you? I think I deserve a very sincere thank you for my help.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, Alan Wilson picked Greta Garbo up and spoke with deep conviction, “That’s right.”

At parting, Hepburn expressed her reluctance to leave, and Allen Wilson promised to come and see her often.

Returning to London, he felt empty in his heart, not knowing whether he was more worried about Hepburn, or more worried about the child, both may be both, no need to make a specific distinction.

This kind of worry was immediately replaced by another thing, Pamela Mountbatten ended the southern hemisphere residence, across half the world arrived in the faithful London, this time she came back to comb Land Rover automobile, will be independent, in the London Stock Exchange listed things.

This was also a major restructuring for the Mountbatten Group, and likewise she was quick to find out from her father about the upcoming military exercises in the UK, asking her husband how exactly he had planned it.

Alan Wilson, naturally, knew all about it, and wanted to add a dash of political color to the Kuala Lumpur Games, the first anti-doping international games, the first to make the two countries shake hands and make peace, and so on.

“Even if we get more credit for mediation, what’s the point?” Pamela Mountbatten didn’t understand, “Besides, you’re really sure that war will break out on the border.”

“If someone else asks, then no.” Alan Wilson replied dryly, “But since it’s you asking, as the head of the family, I naturally have to be honest, this is a good opportunity for Britain to enhance its international influence.”

“Are the two events necessarily connected?” Pamela Mountbatten felt that her husband was just throwing a king’s punch and had no focus at all.

Alan Wilson expressed pessimism about his wife’s realization of what it meant to be a king’s punch. To put it another way, it could also be called Lost Fist, he was a Saigon Boxing Champion, how could he be playing Wang Bak Fist.
