Chapter 1407: An Appeal for Peace
After a moment’s silence into the microphone, Alan Wilson said again, “Isn’t this suspicion something we must let Washington know about, linking it to the Soviet raid on Warsaw? Then discuss it with the U.S. through intelligence exchanges, and remember, make our position firmly known that Britain will not intervene in colonies that have become independent.”
At least this is not the time, now that the war has only just begun, how come we must not wait and see for two days? Will the Indian army be able to break through the border without any problems, or is it just starting to swallow the tiger by the mile?
What time is it? Want to make a true judgment is not enough, otherwise, it is likely to appear Shoigu one battle to seal the embarrassment.
Of course this does not mean that Alan Wilson thinks, India can not win, steady and steady in the face of sixty million people want to be independent of the Pakistani government forces, India will sooner or later reach the goal.
“I understand, Secretary General.” Wick replied as he gripped the microphone, “We’re communicating with Washington right now, and hopefully we’ll learn exactly what the U.S. thinks about this war.”
“Good, please. Wait until I get to work tomorrow.” Alan Wilson put down the microphone and stared at the good old son Charlotte in front of him with one eyebrow raised and said, “Any thoughts on what to read about modern Chinese history?”
A motionless Charlotte bitter face, he also did not dare to run, or really by the waistband of the pants, “Father, you let me understand the knowledge, obviously less than my age should master.”
“You cut the crap, you don’t know the seriousness of the matter now.” Alan Wilson said with a look that I think highly of you, “Others can’t grasp it, but you will, your stage is in East Asia. Never heard of using history as a mirror? I can wipe your ass for the rest of your life? In the future, you still need to make your own judgment when you encounter things.”
The more Shiloh listened, the more he didn’t understand, thinking, “How old am I, and how did it involve wiping my ass for the rest of my life? His head was blank, he just nodded indifferently to show that he understood.
“Listen well to your father.” Charmaine scowled, she could read her son’s usual subtle expressions when he was trying to muddle through better than her own man could.
“Son, think about it, if you have another half in your life, shouldn’t you have some basis to withstand risk? Either money or power, preferably both.” Alan Wilson inculcated as he thought, “Take the little girl you had so much fun with, you should at least have my power, right? Right?”
On the matter of being very optimistic about the first beauty of Xiangjiang, Allen Wilson could only console himself that at least it was a gender male loving female, a very normal boy should think, to be like Musk’s son, then he died with his heart in his mouth, but optimistic as well as optimistic, the challenge was still very big.
Good Dale didn’t want to look forward to a future like Aiden controlling Nasser, did he?
Since you don’t want to, then you have to have overwhelming strength to maintain, at least not of becoming a mansion, but also can not be the general sense of Xiangjiang mansion, many of the gold of Xiangjiang mansion is close to nothing, and Xiangjiang proper noun thousands of feet of mansion is almost the same, that’s how big it is, one hundred square meters.
The real magnates of Xiangjiang, either have a relationship with London, or have a relationship with the imperial capital, if neither has a relationship, this magnate also figure a fun.
Xiangjiang’s prosperity is a specific product of a special period in history, the place and Singapore’s chokehold on the Strait of Malacca can not be compared, not good even if, the population also does not have the minimum standard of industrial upgrading.
Moreover, if one day a big country appears on the hostile list of the free world, as if it has just disappeared from the hostile list, Hong Kong will not even be able to maintain its current prosperity.
Can Hong Kong maintain its status quo as an international financial center? No. The British and American capitals will naturally shift the location of the international financial center to Singapore. A major country can help Hong Kong to seize the position of international financial center? The capital market is still British and American.
The free world says that Hong Kong is Asia’s financial center it is, said not, any country says it is it is not.
A day apart, Alan Wilson went to work in Whitehall while asking for an update on this Indo-Pakistani war, and Wick relayed the US attitude, “Dr. Kissinger is adamant that India’s ambitions have already harmed the international situation and is prepared to pressure India from the diplomatic level, and has said that a repeat of the 62 years is not ruled out?”
“Huh?” Alan Wilson snorted, “This only proves that what US-India Association Chairman, at critical moments, still interprets issues according to his own country’s perspective.”
Kissinger was the chairman of the U.S.-India Association, a position that may be generally unknown, but Kissinger’s attitude in the Third Indo-Pakistani War was one of staunch support for Pakistan, and he had also expressed his intention to join with a certain major power to intervene, a threat that was of course ignored by India, which was already allied with the Soviet Union.
“The point is, does Washington believe that it was the Soviet Union that orchestrated this war, or at least provided India with battle plans?” Allen Wilson was still more concerned about this, the Indian airborne operation on the outskirts of Dacca was too much like the airborne Czechoslovakia that hadn’t happened in this world, turned into an airborne Warsaw military operation.
“Dr. Kissinger says that this cannot be ruled out. He’ll keep an eye on the Indo-Pakistani situation.” Wick immediately answered without even thinking about it.
Alan Wilson nodded his head, it seems that the US side is also confused, in the fog of war, and can’t get an idea for a while, which is normal, as long as a country’s energy is limited.
Arrogant as Bush Jr. period, the United States claimed to win two wars at the same time, referring to similar Afghanistan, Iraq, the kind of opponent, can not be China and Russia, right?
However, it is certain that East Pakistan is no depth, in the Indian country surrounded on three sides, if the standard of Germany in World War II, India once launched the iron wall of the siege, the situation of the Pakistani defenders is really quite difficult, the East Pakistan area is only one-fourth of the size of France, there is no basis for resisting the Indian wave of flow.
“On Indira Gandhi’s last trip to the United States, I heard that the talks were so deadlocked that Kissinger said it was the most awkward conversation with a foreign leader during Nixon’s term. It is certain that the U.S. attitude is not going to change, we can be sure of that.” Alan Wilson finished listening to the international situation and picked up the phone, “Pick up the Ministry of Defense, is Field Marshal Charles there, and ask about the Ministry of Defense’s attitude towards the Indo-Pakistani situation. I believe the Prime Minister is also extremely concerned.”
Alan Wilson even at this time want to ask, currently seems to be the most talented good son Alexeev, India’s plan of attack is not the Soviet Union formulated, especially airborne operations this part, but a thought or forget it, he is now also busy it.
At this time the news of the Indo-Pakistani war again, has been on the headlines of the major British newspapers, since India’s independence, in the British public opinion in the middle of the very presence.
This has not changed because of independence, Britain is not the sovereign state of India now, but still has the power of Bibi jang, not to mention the outbreak of war this kind of international hotspot.
In this context, Alan Wilson arrived at the Ministry of Defense to ask Marshal Charles what was in the intervention plan he had made earlier that could be employed in due course.
There were still a lot of elements, such as the Iron Wall of Siege in another sense, mobilizing four heavy aircraft carriers from the Mediterranean and Pacific fleets to pose a threat if any from the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal, accompanied of course by the activation of the military bases in the Andaman Islands to act as a pivot point.
“Uh? A little too early?” Alan Wilson opened his mouth when he heard that, wouldn’t Britain steal the show if they did that? He’d only just gotten the Foreign Office to state its non-interference.
At this point he was still prepared to leave the main stage to the Soviet Union and the United States, which was known to be a supporter of Pakistan, and Washington had already stated its position. As for the Indian side, the USSR and India had just signed a friendship treaty, the US and the USSR could be met down the line, and at this point in time Britain should not be stealing the show, even if there was a basis for doing so.
“There is also a strategic air force operation to prepare for an airborne landing in Sikkim. There are still some of our installations in Sikkim and we have good relations with Sikkim.” Sir Charles took out for the record once he heard, “The danger of taking strategic air force airborne Sikkim is not great, Sikkim, although the area is small, but the current situation is stable. And not far from the battlefield, once the airborne action is taken to see the effect very quickly. But it may not be possible to bypass Indian airspace.”
“This is a problem, from the direction of Burma into the airspace of Bhutan in Sikkim airborne, also can not bypass the airspace of India. But northeastern India isn’t dangerous enough.” Alan Wilson mused for a moment and said, “In fact the scale of the airborne landing doesn’t need to be large, even if only one transport plane is used, as long as it has successfully landed, showing that the British military force has successfully intervened, it is considered a successful operation.”
To be fair Alan Wilson was interested in this filing or rather scrapping of the case, he still had a friendship with the current King of Sikkim.
In fact there is another route, the UK still has a military base within Nepal, although the role of this military base is that of a recruitment office for Nepalese mercenaries. But there is is there, the facilities still exist, sneaky run to Nepal, airborne Sikkim action much easier.
“Not bad!” Field Marshal Charles approved, and he was certainly a little surprised that it was a wasted case, but he hadn’t expected the Cabinet Secretary to be so interested.
“It’s not like we’ve taken a stand in favor of India.” Alan Wilson spoke up, “What’s wrong with sending a strategic transport plane to Nepal? This is also to protect other countries in South Asia from the Indo-Pakistani war.”
While the Ministry of Defense was discussing the plan of action, Prime Minister Harold Wilson issued his first peace appeal after the official outbreak of the Indo-Pakistani war, wanting India and Pakistan to sit down and talk.
This is very normal, Britain is a responsible big country and should do so, as to whether it is useful or not? The Great Sage of Mixed Tops also often says that peace is precious.
