Chapter 817 The Bandung Conference

Starting over was a difficult process for Nasser, having left Egypt he was no longer a senior officer.

Being in a foreign country, he had to start everything from scratch.

The resistance that had been drawn up was a far cry from the supporters of the Egyptian army, and here the locals were clearly less courageous than the inhabitants of Egypt and more fearful of the French.

The only consolation was that the circumstances in Algeria were somewhat stronger than in Egypt, if only to a limited extent.

The most trusted friend of this party was the camel, which unfortunately suffered from a lack of pasture. Water was equally scarce, the last drops in the ponds were dry, the land was a mixture of clay and sand very unfavorable for vegetation, and the rainwater that accumulated from the rains seeped into the sandy layers and soon disappeared from these strata, which were covered with a great deal of sandstone and could not preserve a single molecule of liquid.

Not only the land but also the air is so dry that no iron object exposed to the air will rust.

The wider region was desert, not only due to the dryness, but also because almost no living creatures ventured here.

Nasser’s party, walking under the hot sun and through air that did not contain a single grain of moisture, were visibly tired.

Their reserves of water, held in sheepskin bags heated by the heat, were dwindling, and they had already had to restrict their use, a restriction that made it very difficult.

It was evident that the want of water would soon become an insuperable difficulty, and that they must either stop their progress to the northward, or go back.

Going back was impossible, they couldn’t just hide in the middle of the desert as they had done before when pursued by the French army.

Algeria, though vast, was not a large enough environment for Nasser to make a career out of just sand.

They had to get closer to a more habitable place in order to establish a permanent base of resistance to the colonizers.

Coming from an orthodox military background, Nasser had now, after some time, gotten the hang of the enemy-in-the-field way of life.

The group tried to conserve as much energy as possible to minimize the exertion of their bodies themselves, and thankfully the day was coming to an end, and moving at night would not be as painful as it had been during the day.

After a few moments of rest, they were back on the road. Colonel Nasser took advantage of the ground conditions to set up some large triangles that didn’t require frequent markers. Since they mostly worked manically on some clear nights, the markers were very clear in the Gobi.

This saves time and reduces fatigue, and should be recognized as a necessary skill, both for these aspiring resisters against the colonists, and for the natives, who are used to living in a terrible climate.

Finally this party, having survived all the trials of the past few days, saw a small village on the edge of the desert.

This difficult journey had finally allowed them to find shelter and take a real break.

Nasser, relieved of all his fatigue, soon fell asleep, and in his dreams it was as if he were back in Cairo, a respected leader, leading Egypt on the path to glory.

Allen Wilson in Khartoum, of course, do not know the third world’s prestigious leader, is in the Gobi of Algeria weathered, how busy he is, in the reach of the environment, the degree of hardship is not at all worse than Nasser.

Eventually, all the time head out of the black robe, Alan Wilson gasped, full of exhaustion that I can not breathe.

Hedy Lamarr’s eyes in the moonlight, as if a guiding light, reproachfully looked at the man who made a mistake, meaning inexplicably, “A high official of the empire, every day, just put his mind on this.”

“I’m just an ordinary man who only puts his mind on this.” Alan Wilson sighed contentedly and explained, “Aren’t I afraid that you’ll be lonely? You always stay in your room and don’t have much entertainment.”

“I see you think of me as an entertainment item.” Hedy Lamarr bristled, a sentence that went straight to the heart of the matter.

She knew that what the man said was also true, and it was true that a face like hers was too presentable, and even if she went out in the garb of an Arab woman on board, she would have to be careful, for the two were living together, and might be bumped into.

Considering Alan Wilson’s work, she could only try to stay in the room and concentrate on the logistics.

For the shadow queen’s sacrifice, Alan Wilson was very grateful in his heart, and as much as possible, he also stayed in his room and didn’t run around.

What was the point of running around when you could tour the world without leaving your home? This is already happier than many people in the world!

Alan Wilson did not know that he was especially happier now than Nasser, the Arabian lion who was supposed to be a great Egyptian man.

He has no qualifications at all to be picky about his present circumstances than the sky-scraping great man who is constantly hiding in the east.

The move by France to massively reinforce Algeria to forcefully suppress the revolt has been perfectly timed to be used to intimidate the leaders of Sudanese independence, and it would be a shame not to take advantage of it at just the right time.

While pulling a stomp on France may have been a bit unkind, proclaiming France’s attitude in the colonies would help to wake up a few of the Sudanese leaders who couldn’t wait to be in charge, and not to come over recklessly without even thinking about it.

For the matter of Sudanese independence, Alan Wilson’s established policy is to complicate simple problems, the spirit of both want and need is the original intention of solving the problem, so he is going to meet with the Ethiopian envoy, and likewise to receive the minister of Farouk I. Sudanese independence is a big thing.

The spirit of Britain was that it wanted the whole process to be peaceful and to avoid the tragedy that followed the independence of India. So it was important to listen to the reasonable views of the two major powers, Egypt and Ethiopia.

Even the Americans agreed with this, and in fact after the war, the United States had set up a representative office in Khartoum, and its harboring of mischief was evident in the fact that representative offices with embassy duties now existed in the capitals of the British colonies. Watching from the shadows what Britain, in fact, was going to do about Sudan’s independence.

Britain’s attitude was magnanimous, John was fine with going to the Americans’ representative offices, running the Anglo-American special relationship. Maintaining transparency between the allies, full of love for the Adversary.

“These Americans, on the surface, have done nothing, but they are the ones who want to reach around the most right now.” John said with a look of revulsion, “More than once, they’ve inquired as to exactly what program we’ve prepared.”

“As long as you don’t tell them about the partition program, the rest doesn’t matter.” Alan Wilson held a piece of ivory with a disgusted look on his face, this kind of thing was of little use to him, was it used to make mahjong?

“When do we meet with the leaders of the two parties?” John wasn’t as laid back as Allen Wilson, this was after all a colony under his administration, in terms of duty, his responsibility was a bit heavier.

“It’s going to be a while if we follow the process. We talk things over with the blacks in the south before it’s the Arabs’ turn.” Alan Wilson put down the ivory and said in a salty voice, “It was out of the question in India in the first place, we couldn’t weaken either India or Pakistan. Pakistan east and west to surround India, India is more powerful than Pakistan, in a delicate balance, weakening Pakistan will allow India to grow. Weakening India is not realistic. This time it’s different.”

“Egypt and Ethiopia, at least, are supposed to choose proxies for support. Even the two countries, Egypt and Ethiopia, can’t be said to have much national power. It would leave an independent Sudan in a low-intensity confrontation, which don’t want to develop.”

It is not just the Sudan itself that should be considered, but also the relationship with the surrounding neighbors after the Sudan becomes independent. After all, being in the UK’s point of view, a former colony that develops poorly after independence would be great for the UK.

As for what the Sudanese think, can we just get independence this year? Forget the other demands, whatever they were, Alan Wilson thought they were excessive.

While the Sudan is in a suffocating silence, the meeting that has been in the limelight of many countries since the beginning of its preparations has already taken place.

Bandung, Indonesia, has become the most lively place this month, Asia and Africa received the invitation of Nehru and Sukarno countries gathered here to celebrate the event.

Leaders from Afghanistan, Cambodia, China, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Jordan, Laos, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Nepal, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Thailand, Turkey, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, Viet Nam, Yemen and many others have made this previously lesser-known place the center of global attention.

The meeting was very lively from the start, with Liberia, the Philippines, Japan and some other U.S. ponies. On the Nehru to take on, while the United Kingdom maintains relations with Iraq, Egypt and other countries, is in a state of affairs, watching the countries adhering to the will of the United States to make trouble, Nehru in the end how to respond.

The U.S., Britain, France, and the Soviet Union were absent but omnipresent at the Bandung Conference, except that the exchanges took place through other countries.

From the US perspective, of course, it was hoped that nothing would come out of this meeting. But Nehru is obviously not a light, and there is Sukarno’s support, coupled with India since independence, has been very prestigious, even the United States is not willing to offend, these servants of the country, more will not shake Nehru’s determination.

Despite all the difficulties, Nehru still held the direction of the conference firmly in his hands, and all sectors in India gave enthusiastic support to the Prime Minister’s performance at the Bandung Conference.

Nehru ultimately dominated the countries of the Bandung Conference and came up with the Ten Principles of the Bandung Conference, which included, but were not limited to, the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, which were proclaimed as the final communiqué of the Bandung Conference in the form of the Final Communiqué of the Asian-African Conference.

In the second half of April, the Bandung Conference was closed, and Nehru, who was full of pride, returned to New Delhi, the capital of India, under the farewell of Sukarno, and was welcomed by all walks of life in India, and countless people flocked to the streets, holding up Nehru’s picture and expressing their love and affection.

There is no doubt that at this time, Nehru, has reached the peak of personal prestige in the whole of India, who opposes Nehru, who is the enemy of India.
