Chapter 1362 – You won’t learn until you’ve been beaten up.
“Going to London? What’s with the idea of going there. Gromyko is good at making arrangements.” Foltseva had been happy to see her son return, but it cleared up when she heard about the arrangements.
“It’s only a temporary place to go anyway, to get to know the West a bit, and I’ll be back to work, Mother.”
Alexeyev brushed off his next stop and took his mother’s hand and sat down, “Speaking of this operation, I believe it’s coming to a close within a month after the leaders of the sister nations come to Moscow to discuss it. I remember many years ago, Uncle Yura said that it was only temporary that things had calmed down in Poland, and that at some point they would make trouble again.”
“You were never so obedient in front of me or your father.” Foltseva muttered a little tartly, “If he weren’t gone, I’d have to ask him what kind of ecstasy he’d put in your head, what’s not good enough to be an intelligence officer. Be a scientist, a doctor, or really, a teacher.”
“A purge worker.” Alexeyev corrected his mother, then juggled a blade with a Damascus steel knife and said, “I don’t deny that those professions are important, but there are no high or low professions, and being a security service worker is just as good.”
Alexeyev assured him that it was definitely not because of the KGB’s prestige that he was doing this, and in fact, with Foltseva’s position, he had more than a few good careers to choose from.
This Foltseva never denied either, the Tsar of Culture also had a son and could offer numerous paths for his son to choose from, no worse than anyone else.
“I may be promoted again, wait until this promotion before I should take up my post in London.” Alexeyev gave his mother a piece of his mind, with his track record since joining the workforce, only his age was the obstacle that stood in his way, everything else was not a hindrance.
Once this time to get promoted, twenty-two years old to lieutenant colonel is not too slow, although the KGB has thirty-six years old to be the chairman of the precedent of the title of general, but everyone knows that is a specific period of time appeared in the matter, now and that time is no longer the same, not to mention to follow the example of even Shelepine the whole faction is on the sidelines.
“I was nothing to say, except be safe, and you’ve grown up anyway.” Foltseva looked reproachful, “Come back this time and rest a while.”
“Mother, oh Alyosha, you’re back.” At that exact moment, Svetlana pushed the door in her voice had come in, looking at her somewhat unfamiliar brother in a big greeting.
“Sister, long time no see.” Alexeyev smiled and greeted, then got up and said, “I still have my own business, you and mother talk.”
“Just got back and have to leave, mother, you should find Alyosha a wife, so maybe he won’t run around.” Svetlana offered her opinion with a bad smile, then boasted, “That’s a good idea, what was I thinking?”
“Marry yourself off, do you want to study with Brezhneva?” Faced with his sister’s bad idea, Alexeyev sneered back, and then directly wiped his feet without waiting for the other to speak.
A long time not to return to Moscow, he still wanted to go around, looking for a few colleagues to stroll around, he came to the special store in Moscow, which are imported from the West, and a few friends came here, and saw the Rolls-Royce Silver Phantom in front of the store.
“I remember this was a gift to the country from the Finnish government, there were two of them, given to the First Secretary and the Chairman of the Council of Ministers.” The friend next to Alexeyev spoke up.
As he was talking, the owner of the Rolls Royce had already come out from inside the special store, it was obvious that this day’s harvest was good, Alyaksheev’s face changed, then he went forward and greeted with a smile, “Sister Galina, long time no see, I didn’t expect to run into you here today.”
“Alyosha, aren’t you in Warsaw?” Brezhneva, who was carrying a large bag with a surprised face, obviously did not expect to run into an acquaintance here, took the initiative to open her mouth, “What do you see, I’ll sell it for you.”
“I don’t need anything, I came over just to look around, and then I’m going to find a place to have a drink.” Alexeyev shrugged his shoulders and said, “It might be a while, I have other work to do.”
“What’s so hard about wanting a drink, come with me.” Brezhneva hemmed and hawed, warmly greeting those present, winning a chorus of approving voices, Brezhnev’s daughter certainly had the face for it, “But Alyosha, are you of age yet, I don’t want to be blamed for this.”
Alekseyev had a look of impatience on his face, “That’s a good point, I came over here specifically to buy a bottle, and it just so happened that you ran into me.”
The difference between the two men’s youth was nearly twenty years, originally not a generation, but because of the previous generation’s working relationship, the two men who were not a generation still knew each other, which was awkward.
The gangster organization headed by Brezhneva always ignored the opinions of the masses and posed as a guiding light for him as a hopeful.
London, England, Alan Wilson is still doing his best for Britain, and with the peak of the May Storm past, something has to be done about the hegemony of public opinion. For example, it would be appropriate to summarize the movement with alienating labels, ****, women’s rights, and the collapse of traditional culture, which wasn’t exactly a slur, it was itself one of the results of the May Storm.
Post-war youth suddenly became obsessed with long hair, drugs, Guevara’s avatar, and **** during this period, and were no longer willing to obey their elders, teachers, or the government. The student revolt was gradually described as the cynical individualistic revolt of the hippies, directed towards “individual freedom” and even hedonistic living.
Nothing escapes reimagining, let alone such a major event, and Britain and the United States had a responsibility to render the effects of this movement harmless. Alan Wilson was the first to recognize this, and was prepared to work well with the Americans on this matter.
Brexit is organizing British sociologists and parents’ representatives to do programs, ready to pull the stomping on France, hoping to get the purpose that the French have done so, so Britain will never do so.
On the diplomatic level, Britain’s foreign policy for some time to come, as long as the Vietnam War does not end, is to be resolutely anti-war, though this resolute anti-war is limited to within Britain, which has no ability to interfere with American foreign policy, “Make sure that the May Storms cause astronomical damage to be held against these anarchists.”
Alan Wilson emphasized this point to the Home Office officials, and while the astronomical losses in France had a share of his wife and ladies of equal status to his wife, it didn’t matter, how dare you speak of facts when it was a matter of right and wrong? It is simply a joke.
If this year’s economic growth in the United Kingdom is not optimistic, this is also because of the negative effects brought about by the May storm in France, who let the United Kingdom and France are essentially neighboring countries, France is not responsible for who is responsible?
If France can not afford to pay this responsibility, it does not matter, in the past two years the outbreak of protests in more than France, and Federal Republic of Germany and Italy, the main countries in Europe can definitely shoulder this responsibility, if not, the United States of America in the past two years of the protests are also very strong, which are foreign trade on the negative effects of the British economy.
After Brexit left, the permanent undersecretary of defense, Makins, came to the Cabinet Office to report some progress on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, and Britain has always hoped that the Palestinians and Israelis can solve the problem with negotiations. Of course this is the public position, Makins is the permanent undersecretary of defense, and diplomacy has nothing to do with him.
The progress the MoD is talking about is the confrontational measures of Israel’s neighbors, fortifying border towns and cities, liaising by tunnels, and day-arching operations. Essentially a move to create a tortoise shell, strategically similar to France’s Maginot Line, to deter possible Israeli attacks.
Currently Jordan and Egypt are conducting similar operations, and doing so Allen Wilson believes it is useful because it is with this tactic that Hezbollah in the latter days was able to get Israel to back off. Israel’s way of fighting is actually a low-profile U.S. Even the U.S. itself does not have much of a solution when it comes to such a situation, as was the case in the Battle of Fallujah, for example.
When it comes to this kind of fortress-fortress cluster, it’s actually pretty much the same approach from WWI to the 21st century, with big artillery artillery doctrine opening the way.
Israel is actually still quite afraid of this situation, because Israel does not have the advantage of manpower, and the Arab countries to fight a war must be quick, as long as it drags on, Israel will be very difficult.
Arab countries of the successive Middle East wars, are the formation of regular army and Israel to fight systematic combat results are not good, on the contrary, Hezbollah kind of bad war approach, Israel has no way.
“This is good, Israel can fight indefinitely to look good exchange ratio, but as long as the ground is not much progress, no problem.” Alan Wilson was happy, pleased with the feedback from the Jordanian side.
In the time it took to speak, Allen Wilson had gotten up, and Makins spoke up and asked, “Ready to go where, Secretary General?”
“The Prime Minister asked me to prepare anti-war documents, the core of our diplomacy for the next few years, is anti-war.” Alan Wilson said with a big smile, “Who made us peace-loving.”
What is this, touching the United States to cross the river, summarize the experience to prevent the United Kingdom encountered a similar problem, but in essence, of course, the United Kingdom will not put pressure on the United States, in the domestic enclosure of the self-emergence of the anti-war on the line.
The lessons, as we have consistently shown, are that we have failed to recognize the limits of modern, high-tech military equipment, armies, and doctrines against irregular, highly motivated people’s movements.
Similarly, we have not been able to combine our military strategy with the task of winning the hearts and minds of a people with a completely different culture.
“I think the United States should need these lessons even more.” Harold Wilson said with feeling as he looked at the results brought to him by the Cabinet Secretary’s.
“I think it would be better for Americans to realize this for themselves, considering their pride.” Alan Wilson said lustfully, “You don’t learn until you’ve been beaten.”
