Chapter 942: Asking for a Bomber

“Don’t be nervous, just kidding, the High Commissioner needs to have the mental quality of being calm, so that he can deal with unexpected situations.” Seeing that his subordinate was about to prove whether he was reliable or not, Alan Wilson smiled and relieved, then looked at the surrounding scenery with a lingering gaze, “Anyway, the days of being a high commissioner in Malaya were a valuable experience in my life.”

Including, but not limited to, the days when his second brother was clearly busier than he was, which, on reflection, was rather poignant.

Alan Wilson hadn’t done everything he’d set out to do when he’d taken office, though, and when push came to shove, he’d still gone soft on the big move to subvert a country, too afraid to face the possible consequences head on.

But it doesn’t matter, he can find a way to let others suffer the consequences, like Richard who has already seen the light of life.

Let Richard continue to preside over the day-to-day work, Allen Wilson will take his wife and sister-in-law, with a relaxed mindset in his work for many years in the colony around, now looking back, he really has not been so relaxed, either east and west to pay the key politics in action, or a million flowers in the bushes, but did not do a piece of the leaves do not touch the body.

When living well, there is a kind of person who will deliberately seek out those who are not living well, such as the richest man in India in the latter days, who built his mansion on the side of a slum kiln.

Alan Wilson didn’t know what kind of mentality this was, but he was able to find that many people had this kind of mentality. Take the case of the exuberant sister-in-law, Her Royal Highness had a keen interest in seeing the savages.

In the East Malaysia region and Dutch Kalimantan junction, there are a number of villages, if there is just a primitive village is not surprising, but as we all know, the United Kingdom has always had a strong interest in archaeology, in the local excavation of the primitive tribal life of the cave, which would be worth exploring.

This became one of the stops on the High Commissioner’s tour with his wife and sister-in-law, and the cave that had been excavated had been recessed in the waist of the hills, which would have been a good place to live for those who lived in the forest. After doing bad things at night, they rested in the cave. This cave was sheltered from the winds, violent hurricanes, but faced the threat of mudslides.

The cave has been occupied by generations of natives, the most recent of whom intentionally planted teak trees in a haphazard manner to cover the passage. They used the leaf juice of the teak to dye their clothes. Low mango trees and acacias with strings of flowers hanging like a thick curtain blocked the entrance.

Archaeologists clean up broken figurines. Having restored most of the statue: the feet of a fierce beast, the thighs of a horse, the *** official of a man, the upper body of a woman, the smooth and young head wearing a hat, it was hard to deduce exactly what faith it was, but Alan Wilson thought that the statue was very much in the style of Hinduism.

“It’s modern times, and there are still people who live like this.” Pamela Mountbatten was a bit sentimental.

“This side of Asia is already considered good. You don’t know the situation in Africa, that’s really called anything.” Alan Wilson put his arm around his wife’s shoulders, completely treating this as an outing, and the two of them were also in the princess’s favor, with MI5 agents protecting Princess Margaret.

Even when the new China was founded, there were still many tribes living a primitive life, not to mention Southeast Asia, which was a step down.

The aboriginal people of the Andaman Islands were living in the same state, and the darned Japanese, they had laid their hands on them.

Things have been years in the past, about the original Andaman Islands Japanese prisoners of war riots, Britain is still in the cover up, but still can not be seamless, in some kind of psychological, Alan Wilson to folk rumors, the Japanese prisoners of war cannibalism was bloody suppression of the matter publicized.

That’s okay, he’s always firing map guns, it’s not the first time he’s done something similar, and it’s definitely not the last.

As Japan’s supernumerary prime minister, it’s all part of his job to mold the Japanese image a bit, and he’s not thankful for his deep pockets.

Speaking of which, he had yet to stay at the Sarawak Royal Palace in Kuching, although it had been spruced up by Pamela Mountbatten and was no less than any bedchamber.

Unfortunately Alan Wilson had never been blind to architectural styles and had no appreciation for the difference between Baroque and anything else, much to the dismay of his wife who was waiting with bated breath to be complimented, “What do you think of the palace?”

“Very nice, especially in Asia.” Alan Wilson said honestly after a moment’s floundering.

“How’s that?” Pamela Mountbatten came interested, she knew her husband had a lot of strange knowledge in his head and was ready to hear a story before bed.

“The disadvantage of East and Southeast Asian architecture, which is predominantly wooden, is that it is not easy to preserve, and no wooden building has survived for more than a thousand years.” Alan Wilson said while thinking, if he remembered correctly, the establishment of new China from the whole country to find ancient buildings, and finally found a wooden building of the Tang Dynasty in Shanxi, in the long time really no more.

So this side of the building in the end what style can only rely on guessing. The European side is a stone building, the benefit of preserving a long time. There are remains of the works of the Roman Empire.

Wooden buildings can also be built very grand, but in the geometry of the European building value is greater. The result of the grandiose architecture on the East Asian side is the presence of a large number of columns for support in the interior, which also has to do with the fact that geometry is not strong on the Asian side.

In fact, China is still considered very strong in countries with mainly wooden buildings, go to Korea and Vietnam to know that the so-called palaces are really small, even European churches are more imposing than the so-called royal palaces.

This is also in line with the historical facts, the lack of peer-to-peer exchanges of civilizations around China, every bit of progress can only be drilled by themselves. The advantage is that it will not be like the Persians, losing once even the state religion Zoroastrianism was replaced by the religion of peace.

Turning his head to see his wife already asleep, Alan Wilson looked out the window at the night, unconsciously also entered the dreamland.

Crossing the equator of the Malayan colony does not matter winter and summer, but since we have to return home, we must consider the climate of London at this time, fortunately, it is already the end of February, London is also in the process of spring, since the London smog event, London’s air quality has greatly improved, instead of the Malayan colony of the air is not as good as before.

Alan Wilson with the information on the planning of the Malayan colony, and his wife and Her Royal Highness, took the Comet One back to Europe, Pamela Mountbatten and Princess Margaret this time is to see with their own eyes, the man in today’s no matter how the environment, in the end how to live.

Seeing stops must stop, Comet One took off from Kuala Lumpur, landed in Rangoon, took off two days later to Colombo, Ceylon. The third stop was Portuguese Goa, followed by an arrival in Dubai, which included Aden, which was close by.

Arriving in Cairo, the capital of Egypt, Alan Wilson took his wife and sister-in-law on a tour of the pyramids. By the way, inquiring about the real public opinion of Farouk I in Egypt, is it true that Ali Pasha is alive, or is it a dark tide?

“Your husband, is he usually in this state?” Princess Margaret asked Pamela Mountbatten surreptitiously.

“He was in this state a long time ago.” Pamela Mountbatten remembered that when she had just met this man, she even avoided airplanes and had to take a boat back for a trip back to the country, and she couldn’t help but laugh, “It’s already a great improvement for him to be able to take an airplane. If it weren’t for the fact that the colonies are spread out too thinly, he definitely wouldn’t have succumbed to reality.”

“What are you talking about?” The Imperial Commissioner, who was a veteran photographic artist and would even wash his own photos, looked back at the two whispering women with his camera, his face filled with confusion.

“Nothing.” Pamela Mountbatten smiled warmly, her eyes full of this man’s shadow.

Just as Alan Wilson had given Richard hints on various occasions before he left, he had received numerous hints from the Cabinet Secretary, the Honorable Sir Norman Brooke, before he left.

The reason for this situation was very simple; he was a bigger official than Richard, and Norman Brooke was a bigger official than him.

Dawdling with his wife and sister-in-law and other family members, hate to Cairo, Rome, Paris, a little bit of no hurry Allen Wilson before stepping on the land of the British capital of London.

Several years of busyness, it seems that all in this trip to go and stop to get relief, he even squeezed out time and Hepburn, as well as the strong women of Paris have exchanged a few.

Just back in London, Pamela Mountbatten took Princess Margaret and went around connecting with friends.

The man in question, Alan Wilson, on the other hand, with an air of irrelevance, found his most respected father-in-law, Field Marshal Mountbatten, Chief of the General Staff of the British Defense, the highest full-time commander-in-chief of the British military.

“After due consideration, we had a deep talk with the Egyptians about selling a Giant-class aircraft carrier. After all, Egypt is important to the global interests of the British Empire.” Field Marshal Mountbatten referred to the latest operations on the naval front.

“The Egyptian Navy should be dragged along and an exercise should be conducted, I can see that the vicinity of Sanibar would be good and would help to raise Egypt’s prestige in the Arab world. Actually selling the aircraft carriers was a very wise decision. The navy is a skill-eating service with a high threshold, and strong is strong, weak is weak, and the Egyptian navy would be easily sent to the bottom of the sea even if it swelled tenfold and flipped with us.”

Alan Wilson was a million percent in favor of the carrier sale initiative, then proceeded to instill his own personal agenda, “My biggest concern is the security of the Malayan colony, it would be nice to send the Triple V strategic bombers to Australia as a necessary move to contain Indonesia’s dangerous moves.”

Field Marshal Mountbatten gave his son-in-law a look that was described bluntly as, I know what kind of shit you’re puckering up your ass to pull, “If it weren’t for the fact that the strategic nuclear missiles haven’t yet reached the production stage, you’d want more than just strategic bombers this time.”

“I’m all for nothing personal, it’s all for the British Empire’s global strategic considerations.” Alan Wilson had a questioning look on his face, and was close to saying that your daughter just appreciates that about me.
