Chapter 1591: Not Like a Human Ruler

“This is a matter that still needs to be communicated between our two countries.” Bush Sr. on the United States should take a more leadership attitude, or take a policy of avoidance.

If only to take the proxy war, the United States is not afraid to support Pakistan, but it is afraid that it will cause a direct conflict with the Soviet Union, Afghanistan territory are the presence of Soviet troops, the United States in Pakistan also has a de facto military presence, if the two countries’ military personnel appeared to be in a firefight, then, the problem will be very big.

Of course, in normal times, the United States is still willing to in front of some countries, show the ability of their own world hegemony, but the object is best Nicaragua, Grenada, Panama, these countries.

This kind of goat, Alan Wilson heart like a mirror in the eyes, Vietnam War brought a consequence is that the Americans do not believe that their own troops can win the war.

This is the opposite of the British citizens now view, it is not that the British military power now more than the United States, the United States military power in the United Kingdom is a fact, the spirit of the atomic bomb can not be.

It’s just that the citizens of the two countries are not the same in terms of mentality, like right now, the Soviets don’t feel that their country has a big problem, and last year it was still the West 8-1.

Speaking of which, Bush Sr. also recounted the post-war situation in Argentina at this time, where Galtieri’s position is definitely untenable, and now Argentina is littered with the wounds of war as soon as they land at Buenos Aires airport.

The wide airport has only one main runway that is still usable, and around it, piles of broken airplane wreckage are piled on the ground. The roof of the tall airport building has been burned off and the walls are black with smoke.

Whenever people step out of the cabin, a strong smell of gasoline hits their nose. There was a thin layer of smoke in the air and visibility was extremely poor. The spacious waiting room was crowded with people, most of whom had come to greet their relatives who had returned from war abroad.

Alan Wilson, of course, was not the least bit interested in the masterpieces of the British army, and he even suspected that Bush Sr. was connoting Britain, and it was Foreign Secretary Francis Pym who eventually spoke up and replied, “Honorable Vice-President, there’s no such thing as a war that doesn’t kill people. The British Army has exercised maximum restraint.”

The greatest restraint is shown by the 10,000 tons of British aerial bombs dropped each day, and the destruction of Argentine livelihood facilities, and the massive economic losses brought about. ,

It now seems inevitable that Argentina will not be able to repay the twelve billion dollar loan before the end of the year, but more constructive plans have been put forward by the World Bank, which will require greater pioneering over privatization reforms.

In Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, the people of the Soviet Union went into mourning after the death of Leonid Brezhnev, who had led the country for nearly two decades, no matter what the Soviet Union looked like to the rest of the world.

But during Brezhnev’s time, it reached the highest international status since the Slavs had a civilization, even overwhelming the United States in the last few years, and every Soviet citizen was filled with pride.

There are friends of the Soviet Union all over the world, and these friends of the Soviet Union compared to the British and American delegations seem a little out of place, especially Alan Wilson also heard that a large country’s mission, received by the Soviet Union’s high level of hospitality, simply furious, wanting to jump right out and yell no.

Even George Bush Sr. noticed the constipated look on this British cabinet secretary’s face, but truth be told, he was equally reluctant to see relations between the two countries improve.

“You can’t keep a country that challenges authority, or Britain wouldn’t have fought two world wars with the Germans.” Alan Wilson spoke purely from instinct, never mixing in personal bias.

Bush Sr. skimmed his head, hoping he wasn’t overthinking it, he always felt that Alan Wilson’s reference to Germany’s downfall, by extension, meant that the United States was fortunate to have the Germans as scapegoats on both occasions, “Germany under Chancellor Kohl is now our ally, Jazz, and don’t dwell on past conflicts.”

“It soothes me every time I think of Germany divided and never to be reunited.” Alan Wilson said with gratitude in his heart, “It’s the only thing I have in common with the Soviet Union.”

Alexeev, who was inspecting the security of the Kremlin, and part of the security of Moscow as a whole, was unaware that his blood father had come again for such a solemn occasion.

Alan Wilson let the diplomats around, gave the Soviet culture czar a gift, nineteen eighty-two degrees of the new version of the history textbook, no honor please smile.

Foltseva did the Soviet Union’s Minister of Education, surely can see what is different, about the two countries, a clear enemy and a potential enemy to get closer, Bush Sr. also expressed his own views, the vice president has done the ambassador to China, he believes that the lure this approach is more secure, but also does not object to the British stirring up trouble.

The supreme authority has arranged for himself a bunch of trips of a cultural nature, in the midst of which there is always an opportunity to talk to Foltseva, “It’s delightful to see Katya still in good shape.”

“The Cabinet Secretary had the audacity to request so many visits from the Foreign Office during the state funeral, is it possible that he doesn’t take the Soviets seriously, perhaps thinking that the great victory of the Falklands War has allowed Britain to find its past glory.” Foltseva’s calm reply was by no means cynical.

“I know in my heart that Britain is no longer the world’s hegemon; the stage now belongs to you and the United States, and the present situation is just about acceptable for Britain. The stronger the Soviet Union is, the better the United States will treat other countries, and vice versa, indeed the triangle will be more stable. But Britain’s power is just not up to the standard of a third party power, unless we are one nation with France.”

If Britain and France were one nation, with Britain’s now retained Newfoundland, the Falklands, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus, Rhodesia, Malaya, and the incense river temporarily in hand, plus mainland France plus Algeria, even if it couldn’t be compared to the all-conquering Empire of the Suns, I believe that it could be equal to the United States of America and the Soviet Union.

“Not exactly, right, that Iron Lady, isn’t she tough?” A hint of contempt appeared in Foltseva’s eyes, obviously not having much love for Margaret Thatcher, the Prime Minister who had something to say.

“Mrs. Meir and Indira Gandhi are not more iron-fisted than her, if being tough internally is called being iron-fisted, then isn’t Changgong an iron-blooded god of war?”

Alan Wilson laughed out loud, then nuzzled at Foltseva, “What is she capable of, the Falklands War was something I was adamant about fighting. It was me who was adamant about organizing a 100,000 expeditionary force, according to her idea, then the Falkland Islands recapture is even.”

Revealed the mystery, Alan Wilson then spoke, “No surprise, your country’s power landed in Andropov’s hands, you see, my vision is not very accurate.”

Foltseva was silent and just about to say something when he heard Allen Wilson say, “But the youngest person in your highest power level, the guy with the map printed on his head, is a proper drunkard, I don’t think the USSR will have a good time in the future if it falls into his hands.”

“Have you ever met him, do you really think that being in London, you can see through everything just by looking at him?”

Foltseva felt that the other party was destroying his trust for many years, other things at least there is a reason, but Mikhail is a person who has only entered the core of power in the past few years, this kind of cadre Soviet Union is everywhere, this may also fall into the eyes of the British, do you really think that you are the omnipotent Zero Dark Thirty inside the movie?

“Really something happened, remember to tell Alyosha to contact me.” Alan Wilson also did not explain, directly to Foltseva, then instructed, “Pay good attention to your health, your cadres at this level are not small, right? Andropov’s health isn’t good either, and Chernenko looks to be in poor shape. Anyway, all your medical care is reimbursed by the public, and with your position you don’t have to use it for nothing. If I were to reform, the first thing I would do is to divide up all the property rights of the sanatorium villas among you. Unfortunately, thinking of the discrepancy between great power and real benefits, who would dare to leave a leadership position so easily?”

Well, at least he was a man of the same status as her husband, and his concern was absolutely genuine; without uttering a word, Foltseva responded with a modest nod, heartily accepting the concern of the supreme authority.

With praise for Soviet culture, Alan Wilson returned to his camp, words are full of praise for the Soviet Union, Bush Sr. listening to feel funny, “Sir is serious?”

“Of course, it is better to praise the culture than to praise the Soviet Union’s sixty-five thousand tanks, seventy thousand armored vehicles, three hundred nuclear submarines, and more than ten thousand combat aircraft. Am I supposed to praise the Soviet Union’s nearly fifty thousand nuclear bombs?” Allen Wilson a face of difficulty, now the enemy is at hand, you United States do not want to play the attention of the harvest of Europe, really make it too ugly really have the country will vote for the Communist Party.

Brezhnev’s funeral was held as scheduled, Andropov, Dmitry Ustinov, Anatoly Alexandrov and a workers’ representative gave a speech at the funeral.

Among the Soviet hierarchy present was also an unassuming, at this point standing like a minion map head, who had only just been evaluated in front of the Culture Czar as unlikely to be a human king.

The orchestra played the Soviet national anthem, the church bells rang, and the Soviet troops present saluted Brezhnev in his grave. And then the Soviet troops paraded on Red Square.

The British and American delegations, out of place with a group of Soviet lapdog states, left Moscow immediately after the funeral. The Foreign Secretary went straight home, while the Cabinet Secretary landed in Stockholm, with trips to Bonn, Paris and then back to London to follow.

“Are you going to take even my pension money?” Greta Garbo looked at the uninvited guest in front of her and spoke imperiously.

“Why would you think that, I do need some funds, but I definitely won’t let you lose money.” Alan Wilson said with full sincerity, “Do you still not trust me?”

Although it is the door to borrow money, the supreme authority is as bottomless as it is, the Fender company which is given to Lovisa by himself, this time going to Moscow is also ready to market Fender into the Iron Curtain after, how can Jiabao doubt him? This is too sad.
