Chapter 1162 Khrushchev’s Decision
Every politician is a chameleon, and the thing to do is, to offer every support except help.
Which is like Alan Wilson such as the pillars of the country, just returned to London hate to take the abacus, calculate how to gallop to India.
Let this has been independent sound big country, once again feel dad’s love.
This can be seen, the minister is also a figure of fun, something really on the person, but also the executive undersecretary.
Of course must be after a general overview of the overall situation of the overall consideration, first of all, the British forces in Malaysia can not be moved, to prevent the penetration of Indonesia. British troops can not be moved, can not use the local army? The same can not be used!
Because the Malayan army in addition to the British army, whether it is the army of the Chinese or the Malay army, and the general environment of India are out of place, one is the same ethnic group as a major country, the other is the same as Pakistan is a pacifist.
So even if Malaya was not far from India, it could not give timely aid to India.
The Middle East is also close by, but what if something happens in the Middle East, such an important place as the Middle East, and leaving while the US and the USSR are fighting?
Britain can not afford to lose the loss of the Middle East, think about it, Alan Wilson watch the British arrangement in the world, drew a mysterious route, using the British army in Africa across the entire Indian Ocean to support.
But the British Army in Africa could not swim across, it needed a transportation fleet to be able to reach the battlefield again, but there was no British fleet in Africa. Zanzibar, with its symbolic fleet, did not have the capacity to afford this task.
After careful and prudent consideration, the extremely sublimated steps have been made clear, after learning the news, Britain will first convene a cabinet meeting, and then with rare efficiency in a few days after the decision to send aid to India, so that the Royal Pacific Fleet in Malaya rushed to Africa, to transport the British troops in Africa to South Asia.
There would have to be a great deal of fanfare in the process, and then speeding along at fourteen knots, it was estimated that halfway through the war would be almost over.
“Simply a genius idea.” Alan Wilson felt that even if Marshal Mountbatten is here, will also be shocked by his heavenly holding original route, to believe in the ability of the sound and colorful powers, even if it is 50,000 pigs, the Communists can not be caught.
La la la …… Pamela Mountbatten people have not yet come in, the pleasant voice has come in, and then saw her husband gesticulating at the world map, curiously glanced, “India? Still plotting your pie-in-the-sky ideas.”
“As a civil servant of the Empire, it’s important to think of any possibilities and make a record of them so that you can do right by the country.” Alan Wilson arched his hand in the direction of Buckingham Palace and said with the face of a lackey who eats the king’s pay.
He knew that his wife’s assumption that there must be a war between China and India, that is ten thousand do not believe, are ashamed to mention to others, it does not matter, when the time comes, we will know that the Great Britain Optimus Prime is by no means a waste of time, and look at himself differently.
Maybe the Cubans are even talking to the Soviets now, mind you it’s the middle of the year.
“They’re only the number two power in the Soviet camp, how dare they be more radical than the Soviets?” Pamela Mountbatten muttered in disbelief, even the Soviet Union was easing up now.
“That’s what you don’t understand, my dear, the number one power tends to be watched closely. Number two powers have more freedom instead.” Alan Wilson smirked, “So the number two will be more aggressive than the number one.”
The relationship between China and the Soviet Union in the middle of the Cold War was reversed from decades later, so having a bottom in its heart showed more intense aggressiveness because it knew that no one dared to do anything to the Soviet Union while it was alive.
With this psychology, it even dared to secretly pit the Soviet Union, for example, Khrushchev’s visit to the United States to say détente, after the foot of the Kinmen gunfight, the Soviet Union directly into it.
Later the two countries grew nasty, just because of the combined fleet and long wave radio? It was just a way to make it acceptable to their own countries, essentially a big internal declaration to show that they were not responsible and the blame was all on the Soviet Union.
The Moscow Conference embarrassed the Soviet Union, the Golden Gate gunfight embarrassed Khrushchev, and how dare you speak of facts when it’s a matter of right and wrong?
Of course decades later, that we’re not all right and you’re not all wrong is somehow feeling embarrassed.
It’s also the reason why the U.S. thinks a certain power is more aggressive than the Soviet Union, and must fight again in Asia.
“The USSR is definitely the stronger one and tends to like to flash its muscles, but it’s actually not a bad mindset to swing for the fences. It’s just a matter of being able to prove that we’re not to be messed with ourselves.” Alan Wilson followed the advice, “And a country with such a large territory can’t be overthrown by means other than war, so it’s best not to be aggressive if you have the chance in the future.”
Alan Wilson was definitely not joking when he spoke, but was very serious. This extremely bad to mess with countries that believe in force, constant humiliation will only cause a backlash, really set off the table is a response or not?
Set in the cold war environment, the United States is really very brave, also so respond to a big country, played a Vietnam war.
That is, the United States really thick bottom did not be dragged to death, on this also let the Soviet Union launched a global offensive suppression for ten years.
After that, the United States is considered honest for a period of time, until Reagan came to power than than the chatter, using all means other than war, in addition to going to war, the top of the mountain city is still very strong.
Being in the UK’s shoes, there has to be a lot of hype about this showdown at the top of the Himalayas to make it work. It would be best to elevate this war to the level of the Cuban Missile Crisis, molding it into a general attack by the Soviet bloc that would ideally shake the free world.
Of course this kind of public opinion can fool the rebellious son who is gradually becoming bewildered, but I guess it is impossible to fool de Gaulle.
The Cuban Missile Crisis made de Gaulle feel even more independent of the United States, so as not to be affected by the disaster.
After this round of public opinion shaping, Asia, if there is a domino trend, the United States down the field again to show force determination will only be stronger, and the Vietnam War is over, if optimistic estimates, the United Kingdom can be true from a position of strength, do the United States independent and autonomous allies, Britain and the United States special relationship will not gradually become a follower of the relationship.
In short, the conclusion that the direction of Asia is very dangerous can also be reached through this war.
At that time, it will be possible to go along with the trend in Indonesia to make a storm, but also to establish the persona of the defense of the free world, the best of both worlds.
At that time, Allen Wilson will do his best to stop the U.S. from fighting in Vietnam, and can even use the Korean War as an example to persuade the U.S. to stop, and the outside is full of Vietcong. However, the United States to listen to that is another matter, may not be the United Kingdom this Hun Tuo Da Sheng did not speak out, the United States has not felt how.
True force persuade the United States do not make a big fuss in Asia, the United States but must be extremely sublimated a bit, in front of daddy to prove themselves.
“No matter you, tell you one thing, I put silver into the American market in batches, and now it’s no longer losing money. Really if it will go up, it will be a big profit.” Pamela Mountbatten stopped caring about her husband hatching a tiny possible scheme and talked about her silver operation.
“That’s really more secure, make sure you don’t lose money first and we’ll see when the time comes.” Alan Wilson complimented with a smile.
“But it seems like I’m not the only force releasing silver.” Pamela Mountbatten was a bit skeptical.
“Maybe it’s the Native American Silver Party?” Alan Wilson was holding a goji berry cup to hide his embarrassment; it might not just be the Silverites, but some of the ladies who were on equal footing with his wife.
Now that the Commonwealth Games were in full swing, it could be described as peaceful, but Allen Wilson was estimating the time, it should be almost time, counting the preparation time.
Allen Wilson, who was pinching pennies, guessed correctly that Raul Castro was in Moscow at that moment. And has been received by Khrushchev, Cuba is now in the middle of the blockade, all rely on the Soviet Union to support.
After meeting with Raul Castro, Khrushchev held a meeting of the Central Presidium, in front of Kozlov and others to explain the huge threat facing the Soviet Union, Italy, Turkey deployed “Thor”, “Jupiter” and other types of medium- and long-range ballistic missiles The Soviet Union was surrounded by American nuclear weapons.
At this distance, if the United States launches a surprise attack on the USSR, the USSR will not even have a chance to fight back.
“This dangerous strategic disadvantage must be changed.” In his usual loud voice, Khrushchev expounded his thoughts before the other commissioners, “Kennedy is nothing more than a weak president, controlled by the cliques around him. And up from the Bay of Pigs landing, he is an indecisive man who lacks strong willpower.”
If the Honorable Permanent Undersecretary of the British Foreign Office were here, he would certainly find that description familiar, as if it were apt for the sleeping king.
“This time I’m going to throw a hedgehog into Uncle Sam’s pants.” Khrushchev was determined, then looked to the members of the Central Presidium, “The risk is there, but compared to the current Italian and Turkish nuclear missiles, this risk can be overcome.”
Overcomeable? Brezhnev almost couldn’t help himself, but in the end said nothing.
“It is also possible to consolidate the position of Cuban leader Castro and exert political, economic, and military influence over Cuba, thus using Cuba as a bargaining chip in a political deal with the United States in order to increase the Soviet Union’s deterrent capability.”
Khrushchev continued to elaborate on his ideas, “Right now Raul Castro is in Moscow and is eagerly awaiting our reply, there is only so many chances.”
The members of the Central Presidium immediately discussed and eventually came up with a united opinion expressing support for Khrushchev’s idea.
A little later in the evening, Raul Castro arrived at the Kremlin and was personally received by Khrushchev, and in a second meeting five days later, the two signed a secret agreement on behalf of the Soviet Union and Cuba.
Achoo …… Allen Wilson sneezed several times in a row, reached out and stroked his hand on Hepburn’s belly, and bitchily inquired of the bulbous flower, “Is it my child who wants to see his father soon?”
