Almost all of the British colonies left today are on the African continent, which is also the main source of European interests today. In terms of separate colonies, no colony in British hands was more important than British Malaya. But together it's not like that!

Therefore, Alan Wilson, as the Commissioner of British Malaya and the Deputy Secretary General of the Overseas Assets Management Committee, also went all the way to Zanzibar to hold a meeting, which is also a respect for the African Commissioners.

The British colonies in Africa were, at the end of the nineteenth century, the strategic extension of the British Empire from the mouth of the Nile to the Cape of Good Hope, opening up the African continent from south to north, and conflicting with France's strategy of controlling Africa from west to east, eventually forcing France to make concessions.

After the First World War, the United Kingdom realized its desire to open up the African continent and obtained the German colony that blocked the plan, and the German colony that it obtained was Tanzania.

Don't think that this plan to open up North and South Africa is easy. If Alan Wilson remembers correctly, the name of the successor of the British plan is the Soviet Union. During the Brezhnev period, the Soviet Union set off a prelude to a global offensive. But British Africa became independent countries one after another.

Brezhnev's African plan during his tenure was to replicate the British strategy in the 19th century, starting from Egypt and heading south to the Cape of Good Hope. Finally, when a civil war broke out in Angola, South Africa's neighbor, the Soviet Union and the United States had a showdown.

In the 1970s, the civil war in Angola became more and more intense. Both the Soviet Union and the United States realized that this had reached a critical moment. Who could persevere in Africa was related to the status and face between the two hegemons. The Soviet Union has given the Angolans a lot of military and material assistance, including a large amount of arms and materials stacked in the neighboring Zambia Congo.

Brezhnev considered it necessary to take new measures at the decisive moment. He decided to send 7,000 Cuban troops armed by the Soviet Union to Angola while sending a large number of Soviet military advisers to Angola. Participating in the African liberation movement is very active.

This is the first time that the Soviet Union has defeated the United States and South Africa, an African land snake, in faraway Africa. At the same time, the Soviet Union's global offensive was in the limelight for a while, and the strategy of opening up Africa was close at hand.

The continuous British African colonies will become the main battlefield of the Soviet Union's strategic offensive in the future. To be able to lose to a player who has just entered the game in a place where Britain has ruled for so long.

But regardless of what happens here in twenty years, Alan Wilson and his commissioners in Africa are now discussing current plans.

Most of British Africa is on the east coast of Africa, and the damage here is not serious. Because of the triangular slave trade, mainly on the west coast of Africa, no one would make a big circle, go to the east coast to catch slaves, and then circle the Cape of Good Hope and sell them to the United States.

Although both eastern and western Africa are black, they are actually different. For example, blacks in eastern African countries are good at long-distance running, while blacks in western African countries and those sold to the Americas always produce famous sprinters.

Before the official meeting began, a group of white commissioners, including Alan Wilson, were guests at the Zanzibar Sultan Palace.

From the name Sudan, we know that Zanzibar is a country where the religion of peace has an absolute advantage. Before the Age of Navigation, the world's oceans were in the hands of the Arabs, and with the routes of Arab merchants, the Church of Peace traveled from the east to the East Indies and south to southern Africa.

The Oman Empire once established a colony from its native land to French Madagascar, which was a proper colonial empire.

Because it is completely different from Tanzania itself, when Alan Wilson communicated with the Zanzibar Commissioner, he said that he should think of ways to resolve religious conflicts and find a way to provoke conflicts between Sannibar Island and Christians on the African continent. There should be a bloodshed.

"Our useful experience from the partition of British India should be carried forward. Whenever religious conflicts arise, we cultivate the contradiction between Zanzibar and Tanzania, so that we can stop any attempt to merge Tanzania and Zanzibar. , gentlemen, is that so?"

The conversation between Alan Wilson and Commissioner Sunnyvale aroused the approval of the surrounding gentlemen, who all said that this should be done.

"But Tanzania is a Christian anyway, isn't it a little bit like this?" Tanzania Commissioner Blake shook his head and smiled wryly. "Of course I'm not against it, but I think it's a little weird."

"Blake, this won't do any harm to Tanzania. Religious conflicts happen naturally, and there is no conflict with us." Alan Wilson indicated that the risk was controllable, "After all, this is not British India, and we have to mediate a population of one million. Conflicts of this scale are easy. If you worry, my work is even harder in British Malaya, where there are tens of millions of people."

"If you compare the numbers, I, the Nigerian Commissioner, will not accept it. Not only does Nigeria have a population of 30 million, but there are peace believers in the north and Christians in the south, and the numbers are about the same."

As soon as the Nigerian Commissioner's voice fell, many colonial commissioners were stunned, and then they said in unison, "So, this is a good place to implement partition. It's just another reproduction of British India. But before that, it must be Pay close attention and find ways to create conflict between the two major religions without affecting the interests of the British Empire at this stage."

Several ethnic groups in Nigeria, the Hausa is a subdivision of the Sahel region, mainly in northern Nigeria and southeastern Niger, they use the Hausa language belonging to the Chad language family, and generally believe in peace religion.

The Igbo people are one of the main black races in West Africa, mainly distributed in the southeastern Niger and estuary areas of Nigeria, and also in Cameroon. Mainly believe in Catholicism, but also retain a large number of primitive religious elements, and a small group of people believe in Judaism.

With these two ethnic groups as the core, Nigeria's population beliefs are much more balanced than that of British India. It is almost the ratio of half and half, with a natural basis for division and rule. Even better than the adjusted British Malaya!

"With this foundation, there is no need to worry. For example, the land under our feet is not strong enough, but it is not far from the mainland, and it is more dangerous to be penetrated by Tanzania." Alan Wilson pulled the topic back, and his colleagues They discussed, "Zanzibar can easily block Tanzania. We must protect such an important location."

Speaking of this, Alan Wilson looked at the Khalifa Sultan not far away, and said to the palace guard next to him, "You call Khalifa here, just say I have a suggestion that I want to discuss with the respected Sultan. one time."

Alan Wilson remembers that Tanzania later seemed to have a nickname called the East African Liberation Army? Now that he knows this, he must assume the responsibility of safeguarding the interests of the empire, preventing the merger of Tanzania and Zanzibar, and at the same time using Zanzibar to make Tanzania unable to develop.

The Sultan Khalifa of Zanzibar is an Arab, and he came to the midst of a group of colonists in a short while. Before the formal meeting began, a group of white British commissioners first talked to Khalifa Sultan about Zanzibar.

"Respected Sultan Khalifa, you should know this, the current model of Zanzibar where the upper classes are Arabs and the lower classes are blacks is very dangerous. And it is easy to be penetrated by blacks in Tanzania, after all, Zanzibar is not far from the mainland. But forty kilometers, it's not such an insurmountable distance." Alan Wilson asked back when he said this, "I wonder what the Sultan thinks, what is the role of Britain here?"

Although it is true that 90% of Zanzibar's population is peaceful, there are ethnic issues in addition to religion. Once Tanzania becomes independent, it is inevitable that Sanibar will not be missed. This archipelago can threaten Tanzania's important port trips.

"Commissioner Wilson, Britain is a balancer." Khalifa Sultan hesitated.

"At the same time, it is also a friend of the monarchs of various countries. The British Empire is also a monarchy. In any case, we will not take the initiative to treat the monarch of a country." Alan Wilson nodded with satisfaction, "I have a suggestion, I hope to share with Harry Fa-Sultan in exchange for some conditions."

"Please make it clearer to Commissioner Wilson." Sultan Khalifa was a little confused~www.wuxiaspot.com~ what the other party's purpose was.

"Respected Sultan, although we British are colonists, it is actually a small threat to the upper-class Arab population on the island. The real threat is the black people on the mainland, but in fact? If I am not mistaken , Even on Zanzibar Island, the more black people occupy the majority." Alan Wilson asked embarrassedly, "I'm very worried about this. It's too far from the Arab countries."

If there's anything good about Alan Wilson, it's honesty, pointing directly to the biggest worries of Arabs on Zanzibar.

"If the respected sultan can ensure that the British use the island's port and safeguard the interests of the British Empire in the local area. I can help Zanzibar join the Arab League. Even if there is no independence, you can go first." Ron Wilson said this and nodded, "But I want to see the sincerity of the Sultan."

Overall, while Tanzania is not yet independent, Alan Wilson is about to nip the danger in the bud now. Prevent this archipelago, which could block off Tanzania, from finally being merged.

Since the Sultan of Khalifa has no objection, before waiting for the arrival of the Governor of French Madagascar, a new treaty is signed to warm up.
