Chapter 575 A Blow to the Head

On the subject of prisoners of war, Allen Wilson expressed a willingness to talk, and at least the formal repatriation would not begin until after the first of the year.

That is, after New Year’s Day of 1951, the reason for agreeing to this time, of course, is to consider that the situation on the peninsula at that time has already had a brow.

In fact, Allen Wilson estimated that the scale of the war has now been expanded, only the United Kingdom, after all, has little influence in the peninsula, do not know the specific situation, but also to wait for the U.S. Army to inform the news.

Five-star wheat emperor from one victory to another victory in the military career, will be a sharp turn toward another turning point, this matter Allen Wilson although the heart of the clear, but other people do not know, the best way is to wait.

So first promised Ikeda Yuto about the discussion of prisoners of war, waiting for the best time to do things, very logical.

The reason why it was felt that after the first of the year was the most appropriate was because that was the time when the U.S. Army was at its most discouraged, and if the news of the repatriation of the Japanese POWs spread in British Malaya at that time, it was theoretically the easiest time to take advantage of the populists, and it was easy to pursue Allen Wilson’s plan of killing two birds with one stone.

If Allen Wilson is fair, the performance of the American army in the face of its new adversary prior to the battle of Mainpuri was far from competent. If this war had been fought with the British as the main force, there would never have been a second rout.

If you run into the Soviet army is more difficult, and now the father is still alive, the Soviet army is completely rather die than step back, the first time to run into the test from out of the real, which is like the U.S. Army just focus on running.

The U.S. Army in the ground battlefield in World War II is not a major participant in the war, the entire U.S. Army will rarely appear to defend the situation. Often surrounded by the sudden appearance of the enemy, the first reaction of the U.S. army is to retreat, and by the way, sell teammates.

The British army is always betrayed by the U.S. army, this kind of concern for their own safety to sell the operation of the allies, until the battle is considered to be the end of the battle, the U.S. army for the first time is considered to be out of the spirit of the deadly defense of the position.

So after that, the U.S. army into the siege on the six God’s situation can be considered to alleviate, understand rely on the United States to provide superior security to defend, not necessarily will be eliminated.

After taking out the superiority of firepower that the US army relied on, it had the same consequences on the opponent that have affected the opponent for decades, the phobia of insufficient firepower.

If he was an American, maybe he would have pre-empted a police or something, but Alan Wilson as an honorable member of the British Empire, the most correct choice at this time is honorable isolation, which is very much in line with the British tradition.

“I just don’t know, who will replace the unlucky role of the British army.” Alan Wilson meditated on the current situation, Britain did not send ground troops, the American army in a diarrhea at the same time using the command of the teammates to let the back of the pad, who will choose.

From the scale of troops, Canada and Turkey is possible, because also only these two countries out of the army reached a certain size, Allen Wilson hopes that the troops of these two countries, betrayed by the U.S. army, can be as calm as the British army.

Anyway, this time, the Americans do not want to be in the betrayal of the United Kingdom, the surrender of Japan would have made the United Kingdom very disappointed, but also should let the Americans suffer a little bit, so that the United Kingdom to take a breath.

Even this is far from enough, the next few months of the U.S. Army to replicate the days of being chased by the previous North Korea, the United Kingdom should be in the public opinion of a good operation operation.

After a few days of relaxation with Anna, Alan Wilson had to continue to focus on the construction work in Malaya and the distribution of seeds, breeding pigs, breeding cattle and so on that were distributed.

The first big project, the large-scale fertilizer plant in Malaya, was Allen Wilson’s first big project after he became a commissioner.

It couldn’t be helped that building roads and houses and such things had all been done by the previous commissioner, Gerard Edward, using prisoners of war.

Even with all the infrastructure work done by Gerard Edward, he was unfortunately very hostile in the eyes of the Malays because the Chinese community skyrocketed during his tenure and became a relative majority in Malaya.

On the contrary Allen Wilson’s tilt through the Land Allocation Bill belonged to the role of a greenhorn in the eyes of the Malays.

Large fertilizer plant is very important, agriculture is the foundation of all industries, even the United Kingdom also went through the Agricultural Revolution, the premier foundation in Europe, long-term are better than the traditional agricultural powerhouse in Europe, France, before the Industrial Revolution.

Not to mention the problem of foundation or not, the threshold of modern fertilizer technology is very high, fertilizer is not something you can produce if you want to, nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer need synthetic ammonia, click synthetic ammonia, the earliest purpose of this technological tree is not to make fertilizer, but to make explosives, the hardware needed to make fertilizer is similar to artillery, all to alloy steel seamless tubes, and into the twentieth century, the nuclear submarine has become a The nuclear submarine has become the iconic dividing line between a country’s ability to manufacture modern fertilizer and its inability to do so.

Because of the alloy steel seamless tube this was overcome, at least the manufacture of nuclear submarine shell will not be a problem.

Coincidentally, India’s fertilizer industry is actually very backward, so the manufacture of nuclear submarines is also not very strong.

So don’t think that such a large fertilizer plant is as simple as it appears, there’s a lot more to it than that.

Unless the Soviet Union to India for large-scale assistance, anyway, on the previous Alan Wilson in British India when working in the understanding of the British Indian fertilizer industry, is very primitive, absolutely nothing to do with the modern fertilizer industry.

India wants to modernize the fertilizer industry, it is necessary to attack the alloy steel seamless tube alone these hardware, if you can not attack, even if you can produce, the scale will be limited. The result will be similar, if not worse, than India’s generic drugs.

Malayan Commissioner of Administration to carry the weight of the colonial 10 million subjects years of peace when, although hidden, but the hints of the peninsula is still with the trend of the war gradually spread out.

To Thanksgiving to end the war of the five-star emperor, finally, as Allenwell is expected, with no less valor than the Titanic decades ago, the expected results.

In early November, at the same time that Allen Wilson was setting a meeting of commissioners to be held on the twenty-fifth of the following month to see who would be the commissioner of Christmas Island, the news that the U.S.-Korean coalition forces had been routed and retreated south of the Cheongchon River traveled from the peninsula to the rest of the world.

U.S. troops, either alone or in groups of three or five, Shi took the wounded and moved toward the mountains as they fought. Some moved east around roadblocks and then south into the mountains, while others simply moved south into the darkness and finally reached the rear. Many were captured and the number of casualties could not be immediately ascertained at the time.

London, Canberra, Ottawa, Paris, Washington, Moscow, Belgrade, New Delhi, the capitals of the two camps as well as the neutral countries, were abuzz with talk of a blow to the Americans, who two weeks earlier had been victorious and wanted to end the war by Thanksgiving.

Moscow, America’s greatest current adversary, first rejoiced in the shameful defeat of American imperialism, and after confirming the defeat of the American army, almost immediately reported it in a confirmatory tone, while at the same time ridiculing Emperor Mak’s words that the war would be over by Thanksgiving.

With Moscow as the starting point, the news that the U.S. Army had been met with another head-on defeat, as it had been six months earlier, traveled around the world.

“I think London should have some faith in me this time.” Alan Wilson, who was holding the little Dragon Rider in his arms, let out a long breath, although it was 10,000 kilometers away from London, Emperor Mai’s prophetic speech full of confidence, coupled with the fact that the U.S. army was winning every day.

Definitely make to stay out of the matter of London is very embarrassing, from September since more than a month, the United States newspaper certainly did not use this to ridicule the United Kingdom, a long time, it is inevitable that London will not let Allen Wilson to thank the world.

But now that worry has disappeared, and the image of Prime Minister Adderley will only exist as a staunch defender of British interests from being thrown into an uncontrollable war.

From the standpoint of standing up for himself, Prime Minister Airdrie must be very comfortable right now.

“See how happy you are, this won’t worry you?” Anna, as the closest person, could first feel the man’s change of mood, and said without good humor, “So timid, different from when you were in Germany.”

“Germany is Germany, America is America, I believe that even if the Soviets are in front of me, at this moment, they must admit that the national power of America is overwhelming to other countries.” Alan Wilson did not deny that he himself double standard, whispered, “The failure of the American army has its own problems, the American army once the enemy situation is not clear often choose to retreat to safety first. This habit is very bad, if it is the Soviet Red Army in place to hold, the effect will be much better.”

Miles away in London, Prime Minister Adderley and Foreign Secretary Morrison, who had not long returned from Kuala Lumpur, were also talking about the fact that, according to Moscow, imperialism had suffered a shameful defeat.

“Earlier fears about the increased scale of the war and MacArthur’s own shortcomings now appear to have been entirely correct.” Adderley said as he looked at the Foreign Secretary, who was in fact not on good terms with himself, “On the one hand we should be thankful that we stuck to our guns in defense of Britain’s interests and didn’t let Britain get caught in the crossfire. On the other, it is not without concern, for if the war had gone in an uncontrollable direction, would it have caused a world war?”

“We should communicate with the United States to see if we can return to the pre-war posture.” Morrison held his forehead and said helplessly, “But back in July and August, the US rejected our repeated suggestions and warnings. The United States now can no longer listen to our British words.”

Prime Minister Edley also nodded his head, he is also very complicated now, for the current Britain, the current situation can be said to be a mixed blessing, the happy thing is that Britain avoids joining another war just when the economy is on the upswing.

The worry is that the more powerful rival, the Soviet Union, is also in the same situation, while the United States, the helper that Britain relies on, is caught in the middle of a war.
