Chapter 1198 – The World is Realistic
“Hey, so happy, it’s as if you’ve successfully cheated the body of a little girl.” Just after entering the door, the giddy Executive Vice President was confronted with Hedy Lamarr’s ridicule.
“Heidi, what are you saying. I am loyal to you, how can any little girl compare to you?” Alan Wilson’s face straightened, indicating that there was only one sun in his heart at the moment, Hedy Lamarr.
The corner of Hedy Lamarr’s mouth slightly curved, to this man’s words are not denied, “Oh, yeah, I’m an ordinary woman whose splendor is gone, but I dare not have this kind of extravagance, it seems that Hepburn is about to rest for a year, right? How is she doing?”
A female star in the popular age resting, this itself is not normal, but other people just feel strange.
But Hedy Lamarr not only felt strange, she also rested when she gave birth, and understood the process well.
She guessed that the big thing that the justly popular Hepburn was working on by going off the grid was finding a place to have her baby. Although she did not know what Allen Wilson was using to make Hepburn make such a big sacrifice, but felt that ten of **** them were so.
Allen Wilson’s face was a shade of red and a shade of white, feeling embarrassed in a relatively rare way, coming forward and whispering, “Heidi, you see me running around for my career.”
“Maybe I should forgive you.” Hedy Lamarr followed Alan Wilson’s words and let the man hold her body, “You’re just like most men, you like pretty women, right? Do I look pretty to you? Don’t you want to do something to me?”
Of course he did, and not only did he want to, but Allen Wilson wanted to act on his apology to Hedy Lamarr.
Allen Wilson has always been brave and good at fighting, balancing public and private affairs very well, especially after getting two big contracts is to enhance the courage of God, the significance of the tank order is naturally needless to say.
Fighter orders are also a huge gain, Allen Wilson is not looking at high-altitude and high-speed second-generation aircraft. He felt that the second generation of the general evaluation of the latter generation of aircraft is not high, is indeed very embarrassing excessive existence.
But people have to have, if you do not have? There has to be a reason, and this reason Alan Wilson couldn’t find. This is not something that he can muddle through with civil service talk.
For this reason, he was very careful to recommend the technology of the TSR.2 attack aircraft to Sweden, borrowing this offshore balancing hand in Europe, second only to the United Kingdom, for the United Kingdom to carry out technological validation, for the next generation of fighters to accumulate experience.
Now that India has a need for the aircraft, it’s great that it’s a sleepy pillow. (narrator) Although Hindustan Aeronautics, known for its tomfoolery with the world’s aerospace manufacturers.
But Alan Wilson didn’t see that as a problem. The second generation was itself an overgeneration in his eyes. Britain would do well to control the size of its equipment, and the Indians were free to show off their planes if they wanted to.
Besides, India had its own national conditions, so surely it couldn’t just drop British planes, but fighters from other countries would be dropped as well. If everyone gets dropped, it’s just India’s own problem.
Of course, the real weapon, Alan Wilson will never agree, such as he copied the Apache shell, out of the British Tiger helicopter gunships, according to the response of the North Rhodesian side, that is really very good to use, copied out of a fine.
The United Kingdom themselves are not enough to use, we must know that Europe is facing the huge armored clusters of the Soviet Union, which have the time to give India, the Germans also need, the Italians also think it is good, and now it is the British export of foreign exchange earnings fist product.
And India has not really mentioned, India’s national military procurement is so, the first line of star armament stacked full. Looks less important, just deal with deal with muddle through.
Hedy Lamarr was quite pleased with the extremely sublimated performance of the Imperial Executive Undersecretary and didn’t mention why Hepburn was resting.
Pacifying the logistics is the top priority, Labo Butler again looked for Alan Wilson over to discuss, military procurement he is not opposed to, is to ask whether the Xiangjiang side to strengthen the alert.
“Honorable Minister, the Royal Navy cannot fight a land war. Whether we defend or not won’t change the outcome.”
Alan Wilson said this with a turn of phrase, “It’s time to think about Pakistan. Instead of threats for no reason, we can learn from what happened in Kenya that India’s defeat created a broken window effect, just as the Russo-Japanese War elevated the status of the yellow race and the Korean War established a new power.”
“The great thing about India’s war is that, in the wider world, India as a nation is no longer taken seriously. The world is very realistic, and I can conclude that the nonviolent noncooperation movement is going to fade from the colonies at a very rapid rate, and that’s why the Royal Navy didn’t come over here in East Africa and use this one occasion of heavy casualties among Kenyan Indians as an excuse to go on a rampage against Kenyan clans who had grievances against the British.”
“We can take the opportunity of the unfair treatment of ethnic Indians to cleanse the country of radical anti-colonial tribes. It’s as good an excuse as any, because the blacks really did kill a lot of Indians in this one. But since we can do that, it’s inevitable that Pakistan won’t think of other problems from this Indian defeat.”
“You mean that Pakistan will improve relations with its neighbors. To face India together?” Rab Butler said with a frown.
“It’s almost inevitable.” Alan Wilson answered decisively, “And we can’t stop it, even with all the diplomacy we can muster, we can’t stop Pakistan and its natural allies from moving closer together. Because Pakistan has realized after this time that India, who cannot be resisted by virtue of Pakistan, is the only neighbor who can be cleaned up.”
Although Alan Wilson did not want to come to such a pessimistic conclusion, it was better to be realistic about such things.
“But Pakistan and the United States have good relations.” Rab Butler was a bit surprised.
The relationship between the United States and Pakistan had reached a very close level, mainly because the United States wanted to use Pakistan to contain other countries led by the Soviet Union.
As an important strategic base for the United States in South Asia, the United States attaches great importance to Pakistan and is eager to strengthen the relationship between the United States and Pakistan. Pakistan leased the Peshawar airbase to the U.S. military, joined the U.S.-sponsored anti-Soviet military alliance, and became America’s closest ally in Asia.
“My minister!” Alan Wilson as the spokesman for the special relationship between Britain and the United States, some words are not willing to say too much, but the permanent undersecretary to do their duty, “the United States did not even win the Korean War, can not help Pakistan on land what.”
India after this defeat, the formation of the pattern, for other powerful countries, is an opportunity to reshuffle the cards, into a chain of offshore balance stage, and is the world’s most suitable for offshore balance stage.
Why do you say that? First of all, offshore balancing, the United Kingdom is the most familiar with it, helping the oldest three against the oldest two, this is called offshore balancing. The third can’t beat the second, but it must be able to defend itself.
Using Lithuania to counterbalance Russia that is not called offshore balancing, Czechoslovakia at the Munich Conference, on the other hand, was a good fit for Lithuania.
Pakistan is weaker than a vocal India, but India can’t destroy Pakistan. Pakistan and is well suited to bring in extra-territorial forces for balancing. And reputable India is no match for a certain power and can be used to balance a certain power.
Pakistan and a certain great power work together to deal with vocal India, while India is thinking about how to break in the face of this disadvantage, and India will definitely be close to the Soviet Union later. This creates a logical closed loop of mutual checks and balances.
Alan Wilson did not spell out the role of the Soviet Union, but explained for the Foreign Secretary the probable future evolution of the situation.
Without talking about the Soviet Union, Rab Butler accepted the rhetoric, “We support India and the US supports Pakistan, quite a complex geopolitical relationship.”
“True, Minister.” Alan Wilson nodded, after India gets close to the Soviet Union, will Britain’s position change and join the US in supporting Pakistan?
That’s impossible, my Great Britain is not bound by position, it mainly depends on who gives more money, India is richer than Pakistan and is willing to add money, Britain will definitely stand on India’s side, even if India is on good terms with the Soviet Union.
Rabo Butler is no longer on the geopolitical pattern of entanglement, the harvest of this trip is huge, there is news that India wants to raise military spending to forty-five percent of the budget, which is a large amount of expenditure.
For India whether militaristic, Rabo Butler does not care, he is only concerned about the implementation of India’s two large single, which will certainly make the domestic military industry satisfied.
The two men, who had reaped the rewards, embarked on their return journey after re-announcing their invitation to the Commonwealth Prime Ministers’ meeting. Straight to Brussels for the EC Foreign Ministers’ meeting.
Alan Wilson took the opportunity to inform the Portuguese side of the already publicized fact that India was going to step up its armaments. As the Portuguese supernumerary colonial minister, he shouldered the responsibility as a matter of course, talking about the experience of Northern Rhodesia, such as minefields around Goa and what not.
The meetings in Brussels were tense and hectic, and it wasn’t just the De Gaulle government in France that was advocating European unity because of the Cuban Missile Crisis, that was Rab Butler’s worry, but Alan Wilson was having a tough time maneuvering with the Dragoon Sisters.
“Seems to have lost weight at the end.” Anna’s eyes rippled as she gripped the handle, “Looks like I should take better care of it ……”
“Alright, Anna.” Bokina spoke up to stop it, telling her little sister not to be unaware of moderation, “Our selling of silver has recouped our previous operating costs, and what’s left is in profit. Stocks are also back to where they were before the Cuban Missile Crisis, when does it feel appropriate to sell off, dear.”
“Another six months would be appropriate.” Alan Wilson replied after a moment’s hesitation, “It’s considered safe until the US elections.”
Bokina nodded and then got straight to the point, “We’ll both be in Brussels with you again for a few days, I’m interested in setting up a branch in London, Anna and I will take turns so you’re not alone.”
“A united Europe is also something Britain would be happy to see.” Alan Wilson voiced his approval in the same tone that France had used at the EEC meeting.
