Chapter 899: Another Bitter Colonization

The British army can’t deal with guerrilla warfare, in fact no troops can deal with guerrilla warfare in a foreign country, unless the explosive troops are in full force, either like France mobilized out eight hundred thousand troops, layers of blockade.

Then it is necessary to raise the local military level, so that it enters the comfort zone of the British army, so the preparation of the two divisions, absolutely can not be skimped on, is really to be established in accordance with the standards of the British army combat troops.

How many tanks does a British armored division have, how many tanks does the established Chinese armored division have to have. What the British marines use, the Malay marine divisions have to use.

Heavy weapons for the current British is also not difficult, Churchill tanks have just been withdrawn from active service in the British Army in less than five years, Britain exists a large number of sealed Churchill tanks, Cromwell cruiser tanks is only two years out of active service, the British Army in Malaysia is equipped with Centurion tanks, each in its own way to form an armored unit, completely reasonable.

“This is the side of the Executive Council, the formulation of a number of opinions on the recruitment of local soldiers.” Allen Wilson had prepared for this, and took out a series of provisions, including provisions on welfare benefits, retirement resettlement and the crime of breaking military marriages, as well as references to the treatment of the traditional British employment of Nepalese, and the management of the French Foreign Legion.

Alan Wilson after consideration, the current Malayan society of the two major ethnic groups conservative thinking, the scope of the crime of breaking military marriages can be appropriately expanded, and not just to protect active military personnel.

So the amended standard of breaking military marriage in Malayan colony is that a person who has served for Britain, the crime of breaking military marriage applies for the rest of his life, even if the person has only served for two years.

As for the prevention of mutiny by the Chinese armored divisions and Malayan marine divisions, which are importantly relied upon, the military preparations are to establish an armed helicopter fleet, Allen Wilson’s copy of the Apache’s imports, which is currently formally named the Tiger helicopter gunships, and submitted to the Cabinet by the Ministry of Defense, and after approval, the order can be placed for the helicopter gunships.

Lieutenant General Sconce has been somewhat numb, by now how could he not know that Mountbatten’s son-in-law was prepared for this? Laughing bitterly, he said, “Actually, I had thought you were just gifted in administrative work to make the colonies into Shanghai.”

“Uh? Honorable General, I’m better than Changgong, he can’t be compared to me.” Instead of taking it as a compliment, Alan Wilson took it as a great insult.

Sconce was an Englishman, and his knowledge of Mordor was limited to what he had heard, if not for the fact that the Malayan colony was predominantly Chinese. It was estimated that Sconce would have said the more familiar Bombay when comparing.

But Alan Wilson on the level of Changgong is some understanding, the Republic of China’s Mordor is so powerful that the establishment of a special team of corpse collectors, never to 10,000 unidentified corpses pulled away from one year to the end of the year.

So powerful that the ratio of prostitutes to citizens was one to one hundred, and after deducting the men’s portion, it became one to sixty. So powerful that there are 20,000 smokehouses in the city and twenty specialized drug factories supplying them.

So powerful that for every two men, there is one gang member, according to the fashionable saying, all shoot all the fish that have escaped the net, every other shoot one may spare the bad guys. So powerful that the average man could spend two dollars a year working his way to the top for entertainment and five dollars for a movie theater ticket.

Alan Wilson if the colony into this, not to mention the Conference will not affect the future career, he can not live to the end of the term are questions, Sukarno see the Malayan colony in this way, it is not infiltration, but to come to a trip to the Indonesian version of the war of liberation.

To this day, the Malayan colony has a population of more than thirteen million people and a one hundred and fifty percent food self-sufficiency rate. This was the result of him pulling in good seeds from all over the world and putting them into agriculture and animal husbandry to start the Green Revolution. Not counting the group of grain merchants in the Isthmus of Krakatau who are temporarily unprofitable.

Steel production was the result of Britain lending its influence and importing iron ore from Australia, control of which was in the hands of his wife, Pamela Mountbatten.

The Malayan colony produces 400,000 tons of rubber per year and remains the world’s number one rubber producer, supplying other countries and even selling to the Soviet Union, and also including some of the capacity that always disappears when shipped to the Fragrant River.

Palm oil production of five million tons a year and sugar production of eight and a half million tons, supplying the UK mainland as well as the EEC market, the markets of the Commonwealth countries and the British colonies and elsewhere.

Among the recent plans, cocoa cultivation is also included, hoping to be able to have a place in the future world coffee market.

Alan Wilson dare not say that he has much credit, but at least after the arrival is considered to do their best, these he can not take credit for himself, to feed the Royal Pacific Fleet is supposed to, but compared with Chang Gong?

It was a great insult to him, and he decided to chop off the heads of two anti-British elements to help him after leaving Singapore.

So much so that in a later conversation, Lt. Gen. Sconce, feeling that Alan Wilson was quite serious, joked, “It seems you know that you are not popular with the garrison.”

“Who made me always send the garrison’s errant soldiers to Castle Peak Mental Hospital, it would be strange to have lived in a pigeonhole to have a favorable impression of me.”

Alan Wilson also knew what kind of image he had in the military, and changed his words, “From two years ago there was a trend that a lot of Korean women were smuggled into the colony, especially near Singapore, of course I’m not trying to say anything about the garrison again, but if there was a spread of disease, it would be a scandal. You know the American troops in Japan during MacArthur’s time have caused American women to protest.”

It was surprising to Alan Wilson that this trend emerged; Koreans smuggling people should be going to Japan. Malaya is how far away from Korea, is it because of the use of the British Red Cross, adopted war orphans, the name of the British Empire?

But because he had foreseen before, the development of the Malayan colony may produce a wave of smuggling, has always grasped this aspect of the defense, mainly against men, and repatriated when found. The treatment was in reference to that of sending Mihailovich to Northern Rhodesia, to ensure that not a penny was taken away.

“Just your crime of breaking up a military marriage might not dilute the military’s ill will towards you.” Lt. General Sconce looked to this revised clause to protect military personnel and laughed bitterly, “Maybe the garrison soldiers will try to trick their wives or girlfriends living at home into coming over.”

“The decision on whether colonial regulations apply to native citizens is not mine to make.” Alan Wilson reached up and pointed up, it was up to the Cabinet to decide, Whitehall couldn’t even say.

Earl Alexander, Minister of Defense, arrived at 10 Downing Street to meet Prime Minister Adderley.

Taking professional opinions that have been refined by Whitehall, including, but not limited to, the progress of the start of construction of the new aircraft carrier and cost control, the order of Tiger helicopter gunships and the Malayan colony to absorb local soldiers, to join the British army content, and so on.

The matter of the new aircraft carrier is a blindfold, Earl Alexander is mainly talking about, Tiger helicopter gunships and the expansion of the Malayan army, the economic development of the Malayan colony, Whitehall will be directly told to Adderley, do not need him to do it for him.

“If the Prime Minister finds the cost problematic, he can talk to the French side to see if they can share the cost. As for functionality, the Ministry of Defense has already tested it. Whether it’s for use against armored clusters or for anti-British guerrillas, it’s excellent, and is definitely an excellent military product.”

Count Alexander tried his best to convince the Prime Minister of the excellent side of the Tiger helicopter gunship, and once interviewed would become a benchmark in the field of armed helicopters.

“Fighting for French orders?” Prime Minister Adderley inquired after listening, “Do the French have a strong preference for armed helicopters?”

“France in the battlefield in Vietnam believed that the armed helicopters were a favorable weapon against the guerrillas, only because there were not many armed helicopters surveyed in hand at that time, it was not possible to expand the results of the war. The same problem faced by the French is also currently faced by the United Kingdom, the commander of the Far East Joint Operations Command, Sconce, mentioned the desire for a helicopter gunship that could guarantee the security of the Malayan colonies.”

“Is that so?” Prime Minister Adderley also became serious upon hearing this, the importance of the Malayan colony was self-evident. When someone first said to replace British India with Malaya, he didn’t actually believe it in his heart, but now it seems that the replacement is more than enough.

It wasn’t all good, for example, he could sense that Washington, explicitly and implicitly, wanted Britain out of Asia. Saying goodbye to the global empire, which of course he couldn’t agree to.

Once the city of Malaya was completed, Britain would receive a huge gain that no amount of money could ever replace.

Even if Prime Minister Airdrie had never been on board with the military investment, he had to show his support in some of the projects.

In the twelfth year of entering the prime minister, Adderley, the prime minister who focused on people’s livelihood to come to power, more and more towards the direction of maintaining the interests of the British Empire closer and closer to the direction of the British Empire.

If it were not for the Malayan colonies that helped Britain to solidify its market in the Commonwealth and the colonies in general, Britain would be under tremendous pressure, and even now, Aidley can feel the ubiquitous competition for Britain.

Japan and West Germany, with their low wages and low currency fixing, were rapidly becoming more internationally competitive as their investments continued to expand and their trade surpluses continued to grow. Britain and the United States, on the other hand, are in relative decline, with economic growth rates only about half those of Germany and Japan.

Britain also has a strong monetary policy, the value of the pound is higher than the dollar, facing the recovery of Germany was not a small impact. Fortunately, the Japanese side of the shock were absorbed by the U.S. itself.

The reason why Britain was still able to defuse it lies in the fact that it has a considerable number of colonies that are in a state of pending development, and after being reminded by some professional reports from Whitehall, Adderley took the colonies as a puddle to defuse the crisis, and suffered the colonies one more time.

As for the place of origin of this approach, the imperial commissioner familiar with the Soviet system of countries to play the scissors difference between workers and peasants, of course, is well aware of the fact that the countryside can not escape from the successive cut leeks, but only the British African colonies as the countryside.

Indirect rule has the advantages of indirect rule, but direct rule has the advantages of direct rule, and Britain hardly builds unimportant colonies, so let these colonies swallow the British crisis.
