Chapter 1668 – Toshiba Incident

“I understand, but isn’t there an easier way to go about this?” Ross was surprised, it wasn’t just an old man staying in prison, it didn’t need to be such a big deal.

“You don’t understand, do as I say.” Alan Wilson did not explain, this is actually to complicate something simple, the more processes required, the more handles that can be caught.

In the system, Allen Wilson has no decision-making power, and the reason why it seems like he does now, isn’t because? Is it possible to get around any system? The deep state certainly doesn’t fit the system, but neither can anyone deny that the deep state has a lot of power.

Take out Hess before and after, Alan Wilson theoretically has no responsibility, even if it is a thunderstorm, that is also the Prime Minister and MPs, he is naturally not afraid, in turn, also want to use this to blackmail the Atlantic faction, but also to retain the responsibility for pursuing the Hess peace talks back in the day, a small group of Churchill’s supporters in which the responsibility of this issue.

Patted in a few hundred years ago, sure and brocade sticking rod place is a peer of the good big children’s shoulders, Allen Wilson did not explain too much, blood is thicker than water, dry on the end.

Back home, Allen Wilson a face of fatigue jerks, greeted the richest woman said, “Why Britain will appear Churchill such a person? Hmm? He was supposed to never be allowed to get involved in politics because of his mistakes in World War I, and then he managed to become Prime Minister?”

“It could be like you said, he had some cognitive problems and trusted America too much.” Pamela Mountbatten shook her head, a question she didn’t understand either.

“Maybe it’s good to not have so much blood on your hands, in a certain sense.” Alan Wilson clapped his hands and said, “In any case, by pinching this matter in our hands, we can start a group of Conservative MPs to oust Thatcher at any time, the initiative is already in our hands.”

Britain’s electoral system elects the party leader, and if Margaret Thatcher can’t be the party leader, naturally she can’t be the prime minister, not to mention that Heseltine’s European wing of the Conservative Party was already very vocal.

“The Prime Minister would never have guessed that you were wondering when she, the recently re-elected Prime Minister, would step down.” Pamela Mountbatten inquired with a smile, “I’m actually curious about that.”

“Why not after Reagan?” Alan Wilson counted Reagan’s remaining term on his fingers, “Our Prime Minister must be made to know that the Anglo-American Special Relationship is not something that can be achieved by one country getting on the bandwagon. Reagan is nothing more than a special case, and it’s up to the Americans to tell her about this bubble, and it’s no use my talking about it any more than I have to.”

It must have shattered Mrs. Thatcher’s ego that in the late Cold War, and especially after the presidency of George W. Bush Sr. the core of American European diplomacy was Germany, which Bush Sr. once extolled as the leader of Europe.

It’s simple to think about, in the case of the Soviet Union is no longer working, to expand influence to Eastern Europe, the United States needs Germany rather than Britain.

Not to mention that Germany was better controlled, France was unworthy of trust, and the world, where the UK is pretty much the same as France, is just as unworthy of trust without an American garrison within its borders.

Taking out a ninety-something year old man was a no-brainer, and when the news of Hess’s death came, I believe a group of people in positions of power involved in World War II breathed a sigh of relief.

Next is a series of surface engineering, such as the autopsy, the autopsy result is of course he killed, rather than Hess suddenly want to leave the world, this original autopsy results were taken by a reliable person, and then the results of the autopsy also became Hess suicide.

The whole process, in the context of Hess’s suicide causing a sensation in Europe, was carried out almost with the attitude that Hess had shot himself in the back eight times. Hess’s suicide was the nail in the coffin, and any evidence of any other outcome would all be archived, one in the archives and one in the Cabinet Secretary’s private archives.

Hess used to commit suicide wire of course was also retained as physical evidence, Hess’s family is not satisfied, this is an irrevocable result, as for Hess’s family does not believe that the conclusion of suicide, a bunch of German defeated, they love to say what they say, Britain is to from a position of strength to make conclusions, than the assassination of Kennedy is also true.

There was no desire to be seamless, so when the news of the Germans’ expression of skepticism was made known to the Prime Minister, Alan Wilson had no ripples in his mind, “Yeah, well, that’s the way it’s always been in Britain. Can a morally passable country colonize the world?”

“You could obviously do it more naturally.” Margaret Thatcher frowned in what could be called a questioning manner, “Now the Germans suspect that Hess died for no good reason, when in fact it could have been avoided.”

“Why should it have been avoided, Britain has always acted from a position of strength, and kneeling to the Americans was also from a position of strength.” Alan Wilson replied conspiratorially, “Isn’t that right, Prime Minister?”

It was fast becoming customary for Margaret Thatcher to visit the United States right after her re-election, and this time it fell to Reagan to sign the INF treaty, as long as Maphead agreed.

Alan Wilson does not care about this matter, the beginning of this term, Mrs. Thatcher’s can not be as easy to get through as before, because this time to be difficult is the Conservative Party internal.

Whitehall is neutral, he can not interfere in the internal affairs of the Conservative Party, he has a lot of things to be busy, such as promoting the concept of freedom.

The port of Crimea, the peninsula that Russia had fought for hundreds of years to get and the home port of the Black Sea Fleet, was where a freighter from the UK docked on this day to unload heavy machinery customized by the Soviet Union from the UK for the construction of natural gas pipelines in the USSR.

The machinery wasn’t cheap, and naturally it would have been impossible for a major country with a full industrial chain a few decades later to let British industrial products strut their stuff so much, but right now Britain’s industrial goods are still pretty pushy. Of course the arrival of this one freighter is not just proof that the Soviet Union is missing another foreign exchange.

Arikseyev had come to the Crimea from Moscow under the guise of a vacation on the Dark Shore, but the real purpose was far from that; he had come over specifically to receive Daddy’s love.

With the help of a KGB man who found the crates with the numbers circled on the receipts, Arikseyev checked the number of crates and shipped them off, the whole process without alerting any authorities.

Although the Soviet Union has begun all kinds of chaos, but are concentrated in remote mountainous areas, such as Ukraine, such as the core areas, the whole society is still quite stable, Shelbitsky is still the leader of Ukraine, the map head for a moment and a half can not find a way to deal with this snake.

A few days later, the crates managed to arrive in Moscow, and Alexeyev himself opened them with his tools, and bundle after bundle of pounds with Her Majesty’s voice and smile appeared in front of him.

The money, totaling one hundred million pounds, was part of the capital that Alan Wilson had asked Arnold to draw back in Japan, and without a moment’s delay he had arranged for it to be sent directly to the Soviet Union, in the hope that it would be a way of cheering up the Culture Czar, who had just been forced into retirement.

Arikseyev swallowed hard, the piles of pounds in front of him giving him, as the Director of Security with a monthly salary of four hundred and fifty rubles, a huge shock.

Taking out the cadres of even higher status than himself, only the group of scientists remained, with salaries of five hundred rubles or more.

The top generals in the military were also paid more than he was, but it was as if there were cadres of higher status than he was, and there weren’t many of them in total in the entire Soviet Union put together. The value of the ruble is nominally the same as the dollar, and the value of the pound is even higher than the dollar; a company commander in the Soviet army has a salary of three hundred rubles, and according to the current value of the currency, this amount could pay a month’s salary to nine hundred thousand company commanders.

The Soviet Union simply did not have nine hundred thousand company commanders, so this money is an astronomical figure for anyone in the current Soviet Union, Alexeyev directly became the richest man in the Soviet Union on this.

For a long time, Alexeyev was able to stabilize his mind, close the warehouse’s treasury door, and return to his Volga sedan, his back teeth gritted, “Truly the evil imperialism, I don’t know how many people have been exploited to have such a large amount of wealth.”

Such a large sum of money, he must discuss with his mother how to use it, this is not to hide from his mother, a lot of things he also want his mother to help out with ideas, Foltseva was also shocked to know, “One hundred million pounds?”

“Not counted one by one, but it probably matches the figure father said in his letters.” Alexeyev still rested his excitement as he thought back to prying the wooden crates open one by one, “The entire Soviet Union, not a single individual in existence, has that much wealth.”

The USSR had already begun marketization in some areas, but there were few myths about the wealth of millionaires, let alone a figure like 100 million, among the word-of-mouth in society.

Only some important scientific research institutes, big hospitals, and big businesses might have over a hundred million dollars on their books.

“He’s kind of giving you his full support.” Foltseva pursed her lips, “That’s enough to pay the monthly wages of a million collective farm workers, he’s so generous.”

Of course generous, this is not to remember the east wind of Japan’s economic takeoff, and do not have to Alan Wilson’s own money, at this time he was listening to the report on the Toshiba incident, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs asked what kind of attitude should be done on this, “of course, blood is thicker than water ……”

Supreme authority decisive, no one knows how to defend the special relationship between Britain and the United States than him, like Japan, such as no political status of the country, do not hurry up to step on the two feet, that can afford so many years, the two countries in the steel, automobiles, shipbuilding above the friendly and healthy competition?

“The Foreign Ministry to the Toshiba incident to severely attack, and support the United States against Japan all actions, at the same time we took the initiative to propose, to review the list of European countries to the Soviet Union exports.” Allen Wilson direct a fall, the audit of the Soviet Union’s export list, surely will be found out a batch of contraband that can not be exported, but ultimately will certainly be unsettled.

So why do this? Nothing more than to tell Japan that the U.S. is deliberately screwing you, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
