Chapter 1291 The New King of Egypt
To the newborn Yemeni diplomatic strategy is also in the process of development, basically also in accordance with some principles to carry out, for example, can be called good neighborly relations.
Yemen’s current population can also be regarded as a resource country, treating the resource country to express friendly not stuttering, the attitude of industrialized countries to resource countries, is nothing more than two kinds, the first is the imperialist powers before World War II, you have food I have guns, your home is my treasury.
But this kind of is to be built on the basis of the unity of the imperialist family, as long as there is a traitor among the industrialized countries, this strategy will go bankrupt.
If the industrialized countries can not achieve unity, then in the confrontation with the resource countries will be at a disadvantage, such as the Arab world to create the oil crisis, the Europe and the United States are tortured enough.
Why did the Arab countries dare to do so? The reason is the existence of the Soviet bloc, it is impossible to sit back and watch Europe and the United States like before the Second World War, take the gun to these barbarians are mutilated. Why didn’t they dare to do so in the 21st century? Wasn’t it because the USSR was too strong for the flames of the collapse of the Soviet Union?
Why was Saddam hung by a streetlight? It had nothing to do with whether Iraq had WMDs or not, it wasn’t even a year between Iraq announcing that it would settle its share of oil in euros and being hung from a streetlight. France and Germany opposed the Iraq war, that is, they knew why the US went to war.
Arab countries desperately hope that a country can play the role of the Soviet Union alive, but in fact the first country to propose can be settled in yuan is Angola, in exchange for the condition that in the face of overseas unknown forces invasion, a big country must provide security, a big country simply refused. Angola’s location really puts a major power out of reach.
The imperialist family doesn’t exist, so it’s time to choose the second attitude, which is to smile at the resource countries, which is what Alan Wilson’s diplomacy with Yemen is doing now in the first place. Not to mention that Yemen hasn’t turned against Britain much yet, and even if they did, Britain would forgive them.
Doing the math, the emergence of an Arab state under the control of the Free Officers Organization might make the Arab monarchies more keen to maintain amicable relations with Britain.
Provided that this state is not Egypt; Britain can get the world’s resources, but there is only one Suez Canal.
Farah, who got the facilities handed over by Britain, and some exploration documents, wondered if this was still the same odious colonizer. Have the British become so friendly now?
Friendly, no, but hypocritical is a fact, especially since Alan Wilson, the cabinet secretary, has set his sights on Yemen’s independence as a counter-example to the partition of India and Pakistan.
At the same time he was busy setting up the image of the new era of diplomacy, in the supreme authority under the care of Lin Lianyu, is a few historic universities in the United Kingdom to visit, higher education insights, so that the Chinese educator is very much admired, this time obviously gained a lot.
Lin Lianyu this time the purpose of this visit is very obvious, hope in the education industry to get the British help, after a round of inspection he found the supreme authority who is doing diplomatic work.
“On higher education, we can increase the open study list.” Alan Wilson immediately said upon hearing this, “To be honest, higher education can never be established overnight. Don’t you guys have a saying that things are more expensive than they are rare, and everything has to follow the necessary objective laws.”
From this point you can see what the difference between a colony and a country is. It is a fact that Japan is occupied by the United States, but it still speaks for itself when it comes to education. The several universities in Japan were training talents for their own countries, and although Malaya had also accepted the branches established by several universities in London, the initiative lay with Britain.
Thinking about this, Alan Wilson again can not help but curse the Soviet Union, this country will be knowledge such as can not be measured in money priceless treasure, very rash, almost cheek to cheek spread out, to Europe and the United States of America’s damage is permanent, from this point of view, all the Soviet system of the country should be unmercifully eradicated.
But that’s just the way to think about it, if the Soviet Union had also been a resource country, the UN forces would have gone knocking on the door in the morning, but he was a resource country at the same time as he was an industrial country. So Britain had to be diplomatic, remain friendly to the Soviet Union, and recognize the other side as an important force for world stability.
It is true that Britain can’t do it, like the Soviet Union, hand in hand to support Malaya, at least in the field of education, absolutely not.
Let Malaya out of Oxbridge, that is to smash the rice bowl of the local universities. Even if Alan Wilson wanted to do this, look at how many colleagues in Whitehall who came out of the two universities, would they not block the Cabinet Secretary’s office?
“Mr. Lin, don’t be overly ambitious.” Alan Wilson looked like Chang Gong possessed, decided to win in a thousand miles away look, “I do not prevent the words to make it clearer, any country and region want to progress, are not overnight can be done, London to Malaya to support the up already out of the full force. It’s the Commonwealth’s market, the EC’s access, plus a sea of resources piled on top of that, and that’s just enough to allow Malaya to be on par with Japan, and you have to realize that the price of raw materials imported into Japan is, not to mention everything else, quite a bit more expensive for iron ore than Malaya.”
“The case of Japan lies in the fact that before the war, Japan IX was already an industrial nation, but what Malaya was based on before the war, I think you understand better than I do.”
By this time, Japan was again not the disreputable power that Alan Wilson had spoken of. Once the Japan of his mouth was the one that appeared to be a crane in Asia and nothing in Europe. An Asian match mechanism of the snake, World War II, if the British and Japanese one-on-one, without the Germans across the strait threat, the United Kingdom can make Japan eat and go.
But in front of Lin Lianyu, Japan is again a part of the imperialist powers, heritage and become an important indicator factor, experience and become a winning formula.
“It’s like the Sino-Japanese War.” Lin Lianyu sighed after hearing this.
“Uh? Oh, yes, yes, that’s what it means!” On another occasion, Alan Wilson would have refuted the other party, but now the other party was asking for something that he could not agree to, and if he agreed to it, he would destroy the foundation of unity and solidarity of the whole of Whitehall, so he could only nod his head with a clear conscience.
The Sino-Japanese War can prove that Japan has the bottom? The Sino-Japanese War is the most proof of the role of strong ships, because the strength of the Japanese Navy is indeed above the Beiyang Fleet. And the will to fight of the Beiyang fleet can not be said to be poor.
In the Sino-Japanese war that era, is the shipbuilding technology development of the era, ten years after the United Kingdom have started 20,000 tons of class dreadnought. Yoshino only four thousand tons, can see that time period appeared how huge changes.
The reason Japan could win the Sino-Japanese naval battle was that the Japanese Navy’s tonnage surpassed that of the Beiyang Fleet that year, and there was no other particularly important reason why the Royal Navy was also drying its clothes on the deck, without delaying any combat play.
“You lied again.” Alan Wilson got this comment from his wife when he came home and told the whole story.
“What about me? Do you know how many alumni associations there are in Whitehall for both universities?” Alan Wilson threw his hands up in the air, “Promised, what am I going to do as Cabinet Secretary? But I promised to shift some of the shipbuilding industry for a high-low mix. Now thinking of arranging the employment of shipbuilding workers.”
“What’s there to arrange, emigrating to Australia.” Pamela Mountbatten smiled and indicated the way out, “Perth wants more people. As long as you are skilled enough to drive a construction vehicle, you don’t have to worry about unemployment.”
“You don’t always talk about emigration as if these workers can’t be in employment. Wouldn’t it be just as well to go to Malaya and train industrial workers as masters?” Alan Wilson categorically rejected his wife’s suggestion of digging in, and was considering emigration if it was difficult to get employed again.
While the two were chatting, the phone on the table suddenly rang, Allen Wilson body hand picked up the microphone, distracted, “I am Allen.”
“Secretary General, Farouk I has died after a long illness.” Dixon’s voice came from the middle of the microphone, “We are?”
“On my way, on my way. Keep a close eye on movement in Cairo!” Alan Wilson jumped right up and repeated the words twice in a row, hanging up the phone Alan Wilson didn’t forget to speak to his wife, “I suggest you ask the Field Marshal if the British Army has the capability to respond to an unexpected event in Egypt.”
I don’t know if Farouk I is propped up, but compared to his original fate, now it has been considered more than a decade of dashing. At least he died as king, not in exile.
Since Farouk I was dead, as things stood now, the position of King of Egypt would have fallen to the twelve-year-old Prince Fouad.
Alan Wilson immediately telegraphed the Egyptian embassy to pay close attention to the situation in Cairo, “Fuad I is very powerful in the hearts of the Egyptian people, and Prince Fuad could find a way to connect with his grandfather.”
Fouad I led the Egyptians to successfully gain independence from Britain and establish the Farouk Dynasty, the last historical dynasty in Egypt, Fouad I was embraced and supported by the Egyptians because of his diligence in governing the country and the fact that with the help of Britain, Egypt developed rapidly.
“I am all set to retire.” Marshal Mountbatten looked at his door-to-door son-in-law with a bitter smile on his face, “And yet I still encountered this kind of thing, it’s really troublesome.”
“Marshal, anything can go wrong anywhere, the Suez Canal is a major artery for Britain.” Alan Wilson said with a tone of how serious it had to be, “I’ve already had the Foreign Office draw up papers to mourn the dramatic life of Farouk I.”
“I don’t know whether to start talking about his life from the amazing amount of food he ate, or his unique stealing skills.” Marshal Mountbatten asked with an exclamation, “By the looks of you, you are planning a trip.”
“That’s for sure, Egypt is such an important country.” Alan Wilson said as a matter of fact, “I can’t feel at ease without personally going to feel it out.”
