British Civil Servant

Alexeyev remained silent. If he had a solution, he would not appear here. As Allen Wilson said, he could not do anything in the face of Yakovlev. A sense of powerlessness, and ironically, Yakovlev's strength is precisely brought about by the order of the Soviet Union.

"You see, you only know that there is a problem, but you don't even know how big and serious the problem is."

Alan Wilson spread his hands, his face full of embarrassment, "For quite a while, the reputation of the Soviet Union in the world, I don't say that as the KGB, you know that good deeds are not appreciated, and bad deeds can be remembered for a lifetime. Let alone the relationship with the enemy, you can’t handle the relationship with countries that should be allies. Of course, this issue is very complicated, and I don’t think you are all wrong.”

This is like the problem of the United Fleet and the Jinmen artillery battle. The Soviet Union emphasized that the latter embarrassed the Soviet Union, and a certain big country emphasized that the former was unfair to itself. Of course, it makes sense to bring into the impressions of the two countries. It's really hard to tell who is right and who is wrong.

"However, as a British official, I understand the problem of strategic contraction. If this is not done well, the contraction will turn into a collapse. The British overseas territories are now in the early 20000s, but compared with the British Empire before the war, You can see how big the gap is. And let me tell you, the contraction of the UK has reached the critical point where quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. If the current framework cannot be maintained, the next step is to collapse. We cannot keep any overseas territories, only That leaves the British Isles."

"If this happens, it will be the advent of the special relationship between Britain and the United States. The voice of Washington is more authoritative than that of Whitehall. British military diplomacy and so on will not be more independent than Germany."

The strategic contraction of the Soviet Union is inevitable. No country can only expand without shrinking, and the same is true for the United States, but the United States will obviously not stand up to attention as honestly as the Soviet Union.

The strategic contraction of the United States can be said to be an enhanced version of the United Kingdom. The post-war strategic contraction of the United Kingdom is to bury nails for offshore balance. The United States is obviously more courageous and does not mind provoking war at all. Provoking a war can prevent the enemy from accepting the contraction of the United States. Site time.

Moreover, the size of the United States is much larger than that of the United Kingdom. After ten or eight years, if the enemy can't handle it, the adjusted United States can still kill a carbine.

As for the situation in the Soviet Union, instead of following the example of the United Kingdom, it is better to follow the example of the United States. After all, the national strength of the Soviet Union is closer to that of the United States than to the United Kingdom.

Now that the Soviet Union is facing the problems that the United Kingdom faced in the past, it is actually impossible to stand up to it. Although the life of the free world is not easy at this time, it is obvious that Japan and Germany can keep the United States going. Where can the Soviet Union find blood bags to supplement? Woolen cloth?

"Currently, I can see several problems in the Soviet Union. The three Baltic countries that have been annexed have been troubled all the time. Poland has always been unstable within the Warsaw Pact. You also know this. Lech Walesa's Solidarity union is a big trouble. Obviously Moscow doesn’t have much to offer. It’s not something you can solve.”

"Let's assume, what if one day the Soviet Union is facing disintegration due to deteriorating economic conditions? Don't forget that the republics of the Soviet Union can withdraw. Usually this is not a problem. Once the national order collapses, this is a very obvious loophole. Don't It is impossible to say that when Ireland became independent, we also felt that it was impossible to happen."

"If the Cold War against the Soviet Union was the losing side, and if the victor was Britain, then Britain might try to weaken the Soviet Union, but it would not make the Soviet Union impossible to stand up forever. But Alyosha, the current leader of the NATO camp is the United States Well, if the Soviet Union bows to the United States, don’t forget that decades ago, the United States clamored for Germany to surrender unconditionally just after entering the war. If you surrender to the United States, don’t even try to save your country.”

Alekseev's heart trembled. Since he started working, he has never had a day like today.

He also knows that the current situation in the Soviet Union is not good, and it may indeed be necessary to adopt an evasive attitude and ease with the free world, but will the Soviet Union collapse? He felt that it was not a problem to hold his ground. But what the old father said is also reasonable. Will the United States allow the Soviet Union to shrink successfully?

Of course not. As the secretary general of the cabinet, Alan Wilson seemed to be able to hear the voice of a big boy at this time, and he began to introduce that since the end of the World War in 1945, Britain and the United States will immediately enter a state of fighting wits and courage. , around the interests of British India, Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand, British Africa and the Middle East, how was Britain driven out of Yin Lang in a secret contest.

On the issue of Israel, how many times have I withstood the lobbying in favor of Israel, and how in the end I had to leave in Africa, and concentrate the remaining white people in Rhodesia and so on.

"At that time, I also wanted to maintain the territory of the British Empire as much as possible, but in the end I could only preserve Rhodesia, Newfoundland, and Malaya."

Alan Wilson said helplessly, "Looking at Canada and the United States getting closer and closer, and to be honest, Canada's national strength has been getting smaller and smaller since the war, and its position in the world economy cannot be compared with that in 1945." But what can I see, I can't do anything, just like you now, seeing the problem, all I can do is watch it happen."

Canada was one of the top four in the world after the war. The United States, the Soviet Union, Canada, and France are still in the back row. The United Kingdom chose to show favor to Canada and wanted to give Newfoundland to Canada. This is Alan Wilson’s personal experience. No need to ask others.

It was also he himself who firmly opposed it, and Newfoundland was also unwilling to merge with Canada, which eventually saved the UK's foothold in North America.

Yes and no treatment are completely different. Even if there is only one British soldier on Newfoundland, Britain can say that it has interests in North America.

The reason for his opposition is that even the United Kingdom and Canada will not help the United States. It seems very good. The last two of the world's top four maintain traditional relations to maintain the unique status of the United Kingdom. Facing the Soviet Union, there are researches. But it just doesn't work against the United States.

Alexeyev was like a good student, listening to his father explain how Britain shrunk after the war, and how many dangerous lucks there were in it. Even if the contraction of the United Kingdom is considered very successful, it is not the same as the 30 million square kilometers before the war. "India can be snatched by your Soviet Union. Is it so difficult to understand that it has been incorporated into its own system by the United States?"

"If the Soviet system shows signs of collapse, I hope for your help. Will you help me?" Alexeyev felt funny when he spoke, maybe there was nothing wrong with the Soviet Union. The fundamentals of the two countries are quite different.

"Your leader with a long map on his head, don't you want to change the ruble settlement in order to absorb foreign exchange? Now you use the US dollar, and a small part of the pound mark?"

Faced with the promise that Alexeyev hoped to fulfill, Alan Wilson changed the subject, "If the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries settled in sterling for all foreign trade, and encouraged countries with good relations with the Soviet Union to do the same, I will definitely Do what you can to help."

At present, Britain's settlement share in the free world is 27%, while that of the United States is 45%. If you count historical records, the British pound's share of international trade settlement has reached 80%. The proportions have never been approached.

Not to mention that the British pound has not been marginalized in this world. Even in the world in Alan Wilson's memory, Mark has been a challenger of the US dollar for a long time, and the share of the Japanese yen is also very large.

If the sphere of influence of the Soviet Union for decades was included in the pound system, the pound could overwhelm the dollar after the war and regain its status as a world currency. We must know that the Soviet bloc is almost another economic and trade system, and the currency of the free world is not used to a large extent. This settlement share is underestimated.

Alan Wilson's request is almost tantamount to telling Hao Daer that if he wants not to be wiped out by the United States, the Soviet Union can only bring guns to Britain and help the United Kingdom expand its voice in the financial field. There is no other way to let the United States The United Kingdom risked tearing its face apart from the United States to be a rebellious boy.

Alekseev felt that this condition was too much, and said very bluntly, "Britain is considered a powerful country in this world, but it is still a bit inferior compared to the Soviet Union. Even if it is the Royal Navy that can be valued by others, Not necessarily an opponent of the Soviet Red Navy."

"I pay high respect to the military construction of the Soviet Union over the past few decades." Alan Wilson yawned, "This is the only place where the Soviet Union can show its strength, and forget about other aspects."

Requiring the Soviet bloc ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is not just a country of the Soviet Union that uses sterling for all foreign trade settlements. This requirement is indeed too much. If Alan Wilson is from the Soviet Union, he also thinks it is too much.

Even if the volume of the system controlled by the Soviet Union cannot be compared with that of the free world, it is almost one-third of the world's area. What about pro-Soviet countries such as India?

If it all goes to the pound, the status of the pound and the dollar will be reversed, and the benefits will be taken by the United Kingdom, while the Soviet Union seems to get nothing. But there is no way, why should Britain help if it doesn't give us a lot of money? How risky is it to fight against the United States?

"Actually, what is there to consider? Isn't it necessary to use US dollars for settlement now? Increase the liquidity of US dollars for nothing? Why not strengthen the UK, which is also conducive to the balance of the world."

Alan Wilson brought out the British ancestral offshore balance theory again, and started persuading Hao Da'er. Maybe his good son Alyosha will not be able to accept it for a while, so it's okay to take it slowly. Don't be in a hurry to leave Xiangjiang, right? Let's think about it for a day today.
