Chapter 606 – Penetrating the Enemy

There was one more stop on the way to Okinawa, during which Alan Wilson took Vivien Leigh down there once. With his vast knowledge of key politics, he popularized the history of the area.

“You know so much!” Fei Wenli said with a face of admiration, never you poor bastards really know about cars tone of voice.

“That’s all the knowledge we civil servants have that we can’t use.” Alan Wilson smiled slightly, the national treasure can have any bad thoughts it, even if it is really in mockery, he does not care.

“Hearing you say that, the previous Chinese leaders were really not very competent.” Vivien Lei was referring to the Chang Gong in Alan Wilson’s words, although he didn’t know the man’s specific work in preventing infiltration, he had vaguely heard it mentioned a few times.

“Can you not mention this man!” Alan Wilson a face of helplessness, good mood are gone, but not in the heart of the internationalist outbreak, this life when the British also not far away from the memory of the motherland concern, he is so realistic people did not have so idle.

Just someone mentioned Chang Gong, he can always think of another person at the same time, my British Empire’s Churchill MP. The originally good mood will turn sharply downward.

In fact the American, British and Soviet triumvirate would only have to gather out two, be it the Soviet Union or the United States, one of which did not enter the war. The strength would still have to exceed that of the Axis powers. The price Britain paid to get the US into the war was too great.

Japan’s productivity is no match for Britain’s, and Britain didn’t come up with a bunch of pint-sized tanks to fool the Army while maintaining the Navy, leaving the Army to struggle hard on its own.

Britain may not have been able to match the USSR on tanks, but they definitely weren’t sub-standard, not the King Tiger type of tanks with long production labor hours.

If it had been Britain and the Soviet Union against this combination of Germany and Japan, it might have taken some time, but the Allies would still have won.

Appreciating that this commissioner who traveled east and west for the empire was not easy, Fei Wenli obediently pulled away from the topic, holding hands and accompanying Alan Wilson to walk in the streets of Naha.

At this point in time, Okinawa has been difficult to find the tragic battle of Okinawa five years ago, Vivien Leigh is interested in the kimono on some people on the streets of Naha, while the white faces of the line of people, while focusing on the residents of Naha, but also ushered in the curious eyes.

With Japan having lost the war, Okinawa technically being under the trusteeship of the US military, and a US military base in Naha, Naha residents had gotten used to the white faces that appeared from time to time, but there was still a line of gazes directed at Vivien Leigh, which was probably how high color should be treated.

Hearing Fei Wenli express her curiosity about the kimono, Allen Wilson asked in a heartbeat, “You’ve also been to Xiangjiang, have you seen a cheongsam? How is it in comparison.”

“Most of the people are actually not suitable for this kind of clothing, so is Xiangjiang, as if there is no difference between the people here.” Fei Wenli pursed her lips with a thoughtful look on her face as she organized her words.

“Got it, this topic ends here.” Alan Wilson already knew what Fei Wenli was going to say, the difference between a buyer’s show and a seller’s show, the traditional clothing of each country was much more demanding than modern clothing.

You’re welcome to say just for a moment to see people wearing kimono, ninety percent of them belong to the seller’s show.

Even if he has never been to Xiangjiang, Alan Wilson with instinct can also guess that the cheongsam is a very simple clothing, the female form is more demanding. He guessed that Vivien Lei’s trip to Xiangjiang had already seen a lot of car crash scenes.

It was common, and the same in Europe, such as the French stockings and the corseted skirts and dresses of European women, and it wasn’t such a memorable and glorious history.

“When I did Gone with the Wind, I did feel bad about wearing those historical clothes, but have you seen my movie? Isn’t it pretty.” Vivienne followed the man as he sat in a noodle shop and was surprised how Alan Wilson found it so easy to fill his stomach, then it dawned on her that she had forgotten that the man knew Oriental writing.

“Vivian, as you said, it’s you who looks good in the dress, and the black supporting character who plays your maid, called?” Alan Wilson mused for a moment, and it was Vivienne who finally relieved him, “Hattie McDaniel, she’s a nice woman.”

“He’s also wearing traditional Civil War-era clothing, tell me the truth, does it look good?” As Ichiro Ozawa called for a bowl of spaghetti in Japanese, Alan Wilson delivered a soul-crushing question.

The two smiled at each other, and Vivienne was amused that she could hear what Alan Wilson was saying, mainly because she was beautiful. It didn’t really matter what kind of gorgeous clothes they wore.

“Seems like a good hand!” Fei Wen Li was a bit formal, she didn’t look like Allen Wilson knew the Whirlwind Stick Technique.

Alan Wilson immediately took chopsticks and did the work of feeding the national treasure of the British Empire, “The more mature civilizations in this world shouldn’t be bad at making noodles, and it’s probably just us, England, who don’t have much talent in this area.”

The combination of several white and yellow faces mixed together is long since not a novelty in today’s Japan, and still especially so in Okinawa. It was, after all, a major base for the American military, which was definitely not a delusion of superiority given the World War II dividends of this era.

This is unlike another ostensibly powerful country, the Soviet Union, where Japanese POWs in Siberian camps protested that the potatoes provided by the Soviet Union were unpalatable, only to realize that in the end it was just the difference between one potato for the Japanese and two for the Soviets.

The Soviet Union was certainly in the ideological education of the above put great efforts, but these later returned to the Japanese prisoners of war also did not set off a big wave, great ideas, without the corresponding standard of living will not help, and in the end may also backfire on their own.

As long as British Malaya can take off, Alan Wilson felt that it will not be infiltrated lead to shake stability.

Leaving Okinawa, the romantic trip by sea came to an abrupt end in Tokyo, Allen Wilson’s destination was the British Embassy in Tokyo. And Vivien Leigh’s nominal purpose was to inspect as well as dig up new Japanese stars in the name of the major shareholder of the United American Company.

While Vivien Leigh had to find a hotel to stay at, Alan Wilson had to go to the embassy first, and now the British ambassador to Japan was someone he knew very well, and had even worked with, named Burgess, a member of that Cambridge Five.

“Alan, how is life in Malaya, I heard that something happened some time ago, it gave you a busy time.” Burgess saw Alan Wilson, very enthusiastic open arms, with this age has already done a country ambassador, said that the future is boundless, can even be said to be highly valued by Whitehall.

“Okay.” Alan Wilson had a feeling of scalp numbness, in order to protect British intelligence, before he went to New Delhi to take up his post, he dug out two members of the Cambridge Five, one became the commissioner of Burma, one became the commissioner of Ceylon. One went to South Africa and the other to Australia.

Now it seems to be a great embarrassment that the most highly trained students of the British Empire are still deep in the front line of the Cold War as Soviet spies.

Will the American forces, who are fighting on the Peninsula, ever think that the base camp that is supporting the war has any number one person under the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

“Burgess, congratulations, already an ambassador, I wonder if MacLean would be envious.” Alan Wilson smiled somewhat reluctantly, “When did you take office?”

“It’s been six months since I took office, and I feel that this place is particularly suitable for me.” Burgess spoke with feeling, looking very sincere.

This Alan Wilson did not dare to doubt, perhaps people like the feeling of dancing on the tip of the knife, directly spoke, “I want the information? The current self-sufficiency rate of Japan’s various resources, import and export figures and so on.”

Japan itself what resources are not lack of, Alan Wilson a thought may be forestry as well as marine fisheries resources.

Thinking about it that way it was similar to Newfoundland’s base. But in fact Japan’s agricultural base is not bad, the Japanese islands of food production is a great improvement in efficiency, volcanic ash soil and temperate rainy climate makes Japan become the world’s highest yield ranks. Not to mention the fact that the Hokkaido fishery around Japan is one of the world’s top economic fisheries.

The premise is that Hokkaido is still in Japan’s hands, but now Hokkaido is in the hands of the Soviet Union.

Japan has a mineral museum called, the total amount of minerals is not much, but the variety is extremely rich, it can be said that the world can find minerals Japan have, but per capita down either equal to zero, or about zero.

Originally, Japan’s coal resources were still in the adequate category, but Japan’s coal is also in Hokkaido, which is very embarrassing.

Alan Wilson estimated that the coal on Warship Island must have been depleted much earlier in this time and place in Japan. Japan’s few bits of iron ore are also in Hokkaido.

“Thank you Soviets!” Mentally expressing his gratitude to the Soviet Union, he couldn’t even begin to imagine how much effort the Soviet occupation of Hokkaido alone could help save among his own competition with Japan.

What is certain now is that Japan itself lacks oil and gas lost Hokkaido also lacks coal and iron, agriculture is also cut a piece.

These are all very important in the country’s start, coupled with the Hokkaido and the Soviet military pressure, are simply good news.

“Burgess, the American side just kept letting the Soviets take Hokkaido?” Alan Wilson said with intent, “Without expressing any protest to Moscow?”

Alan Wilson was full of red face looking at the British Embassy’s statistics, almost always more than fifty percent of the classification of imported items, interspersed with not counting a few foreign dependence on one hundred percent of raw material items, the heart is happy, it’s time to use the social animal’s industriousness to turn everything around, the great nucleus of the people of the nation so excellent people absolutely can do it.

“Alan, what are you laughing at?” Burgess saw the weird look on Alan Wilson’s face and strangely snapped.

“Eh!” Bowing his head, Allen Wilson reached up and wiped the corners of his eyes, choking back a sob with red eyes, “I see the determination of a nation rising from the ashes.”

Burgess couldn’t help but make a tactical lean back, looking as if he’d seen a ghost.
