Chapter 61.

Recently Alan Wilson was at the Austrian-Yugoslavian border, counting the approximate number of refugees currently entrenched there. Previously estimated at over a hundred thousand opponents of Tito, the previous estimate …… was actually slightly optimistic.

Now totaling over two hundred thousand, there are only 80,000 Yugoslav Fatherland Army, and 110,000 Croats, plus a figure of less than 50,000 Slovenes, which is not a lot in terms of numbers.

Instead of diminishing, this army, which could also be described as refugees, had a tendency to grow, especially the Croats, an ethnic group that was surely the focus of Tito’s liquidation.

The collection of weapons went very smoothly, which made Alan Wilson recognize the leaders of these pro-German armed groups, after all, they were armed forces participating in the World War, not refugees in the purest sense of the word.

Like the Pacifists, the Saudi princely army and the Chechen army are both Pacifists, and I believe that no one would consider the two to be equal in terms of combat effectiveness, and the only thing the Saudis claim to be sure of is to be very good at playing political soccer within Asia, escorted by a host of West Asian bodyguards, and then to represent Asia in the World Cup as a backdrop to the face of the fiasco.

On the Asian stage, Saudi Arabia tends to end up winning no matter how much they stroll, but unfortunately that’s not something they eat outside of Asia.

The organization of these pro-German forces reduced Alan Wilson’s troubles; after all, the British army did not have a multitude of men in Austria to do anything about this army of over 200,000 men.

Allen Wilson felt for the first time the so-called soft power, is not a little use no, not exactly no strength after the self-deprecation, always a little use.

This side of the British diplomats, every day to let the Yugoslav representative to receive a batch of weapons, the other side of the Yugoslav Fatherland Army to the leader of the Mihajlovic, after a week of disappearance, once again appeared in front of Allen Wilson.

Mihajlovic, who had secretly traveled to Munich, could not hide the excitement in his heart and said to Allen Wilson, “Liaison officer, General Patton hates the Soviet Union very much, it is a kind of undisguised loathing. His delight was overflowing when I mentioned that the Yugoslav Fatherland Army, too, could join the fight as a force.”

Allen Wilson listened with expressed interest at first, but immediately sought a flavor and couldn’t resist interrupting, “The short answer is that you didn’t actually hear any promises.”

“General Patton said that he would give us an answer after attending the joint parade of the four countries.” Mikhailovich froze for a moment and replied, “He wants to observe the Soviet military.”

“That would be the end of you!” Alan Wilson said nonchalantly, “Mikhailovich, since General Patton’s attitude is ambiguous, you must follow the previous plan and lead the refugees on the border across the border straight to Bavaria, and it must be fast enough to create a fait accompli.”

“Why? I can tell General Patton is pleased.” Mikhailovich pursued in disbelief.

“General Patton is a famous general among the American army, but the top American general on this side of Europe is Eisenhower, and Eisenhower is a man who is more of a politician than a general. A politician considers issues only in terms of pros and cons, unlike Patton who was more of a soldier who purely enjoyed the war. Your hope for safety rests with General Patton alone. That’s why Britain can’t take you in, it’s not like we have a famous British general close to Yugoslavia, so we can’t do the job.”

Allen Wilson went straight into a long rant about everything from the division of the occupied territories, to the current international situation, what exactly makes generals and politicians different, how the Soviets would react, and so on. The key point is why Britain can’t take in refugees from the border areas, dumping them.

“General Eisenhower, will there always be peace with the Soviet Union?” Mikhailovich was doused with cold water, it seemed that he was still too optimistic.

“Oh, Mr. Colonel, what do you think? The Soviet Union claims to be the motherland of the proletariat, and the current Europe after several years of war can be said to be overwhelmingly proletarian.” Alan Wilson laughed, “One million French communists, two million Italian communists, and 100,000 on the British mainland, and everyone knows that the Soviet Red Army is very influential right now, so how do we know whether the groups that are going to be conscripted once the war starts are going to follow us to fight the Soviet Union, or follow the Soviet Union to fight us?”

“Even if it is within Germany, the Germans and the Soviets have a grudge, we can not conclude that the Germans are keen on revenge, maybe they have been beaten and scared out of their wits.” Alan Wilson paused when he said this, understanding that in times of desperation, someone has to give a push, “In fact, the choice is the simplest, it’s just right and wrong.”

“I’m leaving Austria soon, Britain is holding a military parade in Berlin.” Alan Wilson unknowingly added weight.

Finally, Mihailovich spoke up, “We’ll cross the border the night before the joint four-nation parade. How are we going to get everyone to follow us.”

“Once again the British Empire has betrayed you.” Alan Wilson looked Mihailovich straight in the eye and gave the unethical answer, “By then you will have all your weapons in your hands, surrendered, so to speak, and will be unarmed refugees, and once you reach the Bavarian border, you will simply charge across.”

“If the American soldiers shoot?” Mikhailovich asked, clearly intrigued, but still hesitant.

“I’m sure the Soviets would be very happy to see that!” Alan Wilson was full of resignation I thing, “It’s up to the Americans, if they choose to shoot they are suppressing the refugees and getting slammed by the Soviets, if they let it go they will have to take you in. From start to finish Britain was happy to do it, except that the Honorable Mr. Mihajlovic, Britain had no role in it. You were simply seeking a way out for your men as the leader of the Yugoslav Fatherland Army.”

“Yes, I should think about the problem for the sake of the men of the Fatherland Army.” Mihajlovic muttered so, having already decided on his resolve.

Allen Weir’s extended his hand and shook Mikhailovich’s, “Mr. Mikhailovich, I’m going to Berlin, I won’t delay this spontaneous survival action of yours, if possible, I hope that we’ll still have the chance to meet again sometime in the future.”

The deed was done, and the deeper the deeper the deeper! The rest of the problem was an American one, and bashing was the right of the Soviets, and had nothing to do with the British Empire. He still had to get back to Berlin and go to the British military parade.

The British Empire, at least for the moment, is still a staunch ally of the United States and the Soviet Union, so of course it can enjoy the right to parade in Berlin first.
