"This matter needs to be carefully considered. I haven't figured out how to deal with it." Alan Wilson showed a cautious side. Although he is currently in charge of the reconstruction of the East End of London, there is this space to meet Audrey Hepburn, but It's always good to do a little bit of preparation.
The difference from before is that he is married now. Heidi Lamar is easy to talk about, but it is too wishful thinking to think that Hepburn doesn't care.
"Oh, you're flinching? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe my eyes." Heidi Lamar said in surprise, "It seems that you really like this little actor?"
"There are some things she can't understand yet." Ellen Wilson stopped the topic and didn't want to go on.
These women of equal status with their wives, with the exception of Greta Garbo, have been married many times. Now we all know that marriage and love are not necessarily related. Greta Garbo is still a house girl who can stay home for many years!
Hepburn is still a little girl who has just entered the film industry, and she must still have a lot of ideas on marriage issues.
Alan Wilson could of course use the Malayan attack on the POW camp as an excuse to stabilize Hepburn first. But whether this excuse is reliable is still unknown.
As an overseas commissioner, it was quite normal for Alan Wilson to carry a pistol. This is also standard in the UK and Commonwealth countries, the Webley revolver.
The Webley revolver is best known for being worn by owners who complained that the gun couldn't hit anyone at all.
There is a saying in the British Army: "If you can shoot fifty yards with a **** Webley revolver, I guarantee you can shoot eight hundred yards with a Lee-Enfield rifle."
This sentence is comparable to the one about the MiG, no MiG fighter can fly to the middle of the Dnieper.
This kind of sidearm, Alan Wilson thinks it can only be used for suicide, he found Lord Sheffield and asked the other party to help him find a friend to take off the firing pin.
"Alan, you can get a good gun when you work overseas!" Markins couldn't help grinning when he saw the Webley revolver. Obviously, he also knew the British Empire standard equipment with many slots.
"God knows when we'll be able to replace this pistol. I came to you hoping for your help to remove the firing pin." Alan Wilson said straight to the point, "Isn't it difficult for you?"
"It's not embarrassing at all, I know a few experienced workers." Makins agreed, but said a little strangely, "It's just your request, I don't understand a little bit. If you don't like it, just don't need it."
"No robbing and having a gun are not two concepts, otherwise the UK will not develop nuclear weapons." Alan Wilson shook his glass and said, "The last time Turing happened, thanks to your help."
"You're welcome, let's help each other." Markins smiled and said, "By the way, the No. 2 ship will be ready to launch in two days. For the current Londoners, it is a good occasion to boost morale."
"The Prince of Wales aircraft carrier? This is really good news!" Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows, so if the problem is not big, when the coronation ceremony of Crown Prince Elizabeth is held, there will be two ships with modern aircraft carriers in the parade. The heavy aircraft carrier of all elements appeared on the ship review ceremony.
Alan Wilson is a materialist, but since the death of King George VI, there have been smog and storm surge in London, and it is hard not to think of the saying that a country will be born with evil spirits. Even Lafayette in the Qing Dynasty can encounter some good news!
After a few drinks, the two of them separated. Alan Wilson and Turing met. Heidi Lamar's patent for frequency hopping was actually researched by Turing. He asked about the feasibility of progress.
The day-to-night work continues, after the London smog and storm surge.
On March 1, the launching ceremony of the Malta-class aircraft carrier, which has now been officially named as the second ship of the Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier, the Prince of Wales aircraft carrier, has a very significant symbolic significance.
In March of 1953, the two heavy aircraft carriers, which had been under construction during the war, finally stepped off the slipway. At this time, it can be considered to avoid the fate of stillbirth in history.
Midway, the No. 1 ship of the midway-class aircraft carrier that was targeted at the same period, had already been commissioned in 1945, and it has been galloping in the ocean for eight years now. The British aircraft carrier of the same class is only late.
"A good meal is not afraid of being late, as long as you can come." Alan Wilson, who was not serious, also found a good position early, with a camera hanging around his neck, showing how much he attached importance to the hobby of photography.
Now we also have heavy aircraft carriers in our hands. Taking 10,000 steps back, we can’t fool people with Harrier vertical take-off and landing fighters. Britain’s breakthrough in the field of vertical take-off and landing is commendable, but if it weren’t for the absence of heavy aircraft carriers Hand, you don't need a fighter with a lot of problems like this to maintain face.
It is not that the United Kingdom has no experience in manufacturing large fighter jets, and the engine problems that plague other countries do not exist for the United Kingdom. In this world, the United States can pick and choose from the United Kingdom in aero engines. Not even the Soviet Union has the right to say that British engines are bad.
Then the Harrier vertical take-off and landing fighter is launched, and the biggest reason is obvious. The United Kingdom did not follow up with heavy aircraft carriers after the war. Without a good platform, it could not be equipped with large carrier-based aircraft, so it could only get Harrier-type vertical take-off and landing fighters to meet the demand.
After the war, the carrier-based aircraft became larger and larger, and the aircraft carriers in the British hands were not of sufficient tonnage, which was the reason for the emergence of the Harrier VTOL fighter. Now that there are aircraft carriers that can accommodate large carrier-based aircraft, there is no need for the Harrier VTOL fighter to exist.
With a camera in hand, Alan Wilson came home full of rewards and spent the evening drinking with his colleagues in Whitehall.
"Philby, does Washington have any reservations about our intelligence cooperation with the United States?" Alan Wilson, holding a wine glass, asked the rising star of MI6 in front of him.
"How do you say that? Ellen!" Philby hesitated for a while, and said with some embarrassment, "We are all adults."
That is there! The Five Eyes Alliance in this era is not so harmonious on the surface. The fundamental reason is still the same sentence, there are two gangs in a block, and a gang cannot have two talkers.
As long as Britain's power is not weakened to a certain extent, a helmet must be worn when going out fishing.
"I don't know if the United States is interested in our aircraft carrier for building catapults." Alan Wilson said indifferently, "Now that there are so many changes in this class of aircraft carriers, the Americans may be very interested."
"Because of the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, we should not deceive the Americans, but if the Americans are interested. Of course, we can also give some assistance. I heard that the Americans are very interested in the steam catapult." Phil Biyi He pointed out, "Of course, it is normal for this new technology to have some problems. The United States also has enough financial resources to solve this problem."
"Philby, your assessment of America's financial strength is so admirable. I can't think of anything right now that the Americans can't fix." Alan Wilson, smiling and raising his glass, added, "Except the Korean War! "
"Even the Korean War!" Philby and Alan Wilson laughed tacitly with a look I knew.
To be honest, to be able to see the launch of a heavy aircraft carrier, Alan Wilson feels that the credit is not too much on him. The only unexpected factor in this world is himself, and all good things that can change in the UK should be related to him.
But Alan Wilson also knows that this can only be regarded as the first step of the Long March. These two heavy aircraft carriers are not enough. There are the Kitty Hawks and Nimitz behind the United States.
Even if the Nimitz-class British are not able to catch up, they should still find a way to keep up with the Kitty Hawk-class.
After the reception, Alan Wilson left and decided to celebrate on Heidi Lamar, and the little brother was going to be tired again.
This fulfilling life of busy day and night is the driving force behind his pursuit of progress every day when he wakes up.
Villa Kontzevo is located on the outskirts of Moscow, not far from the Kremlin. It is equipped with the most advanced security system at that time, guarded by two walls, one of which has a surveillance hole. The staff responsible for the security of the villa are experienced Soviet soldier.
The Kontsevo Villa is also the most fascinating place for the Soviet executives. As long as Stalin himself is summoned here, it means that one foot has established a firm foothold in the power center of the Soviet Union.
After the war Stalin became more and more reluctant to stay in the Kremlin, preferring to live in this humble villa. Over time, he developed the habit of summoning leaders of other countries in the villa to discuss national affairs and analyze problems. The invitees usually had dinner in the villa and then discussed with Stalin until the early hours of the next day.
But on that night, the big Soviet figures who rushed from all over Moscow were not summoned by Stalin himself, but by the guards of the Kontzevo Villa who reported that Stalin himself fell into a coma.
The doctor on standby at the Kontsevo Villa had already begun to rescue Stalin, who was vomiting blood and comatose. Not long after, Malenkov, Beria, Khrushchev and Molotov were all present.
The doctor in the villa was still rescuing Stalin, and the atmosphere here became awkward. Everyone looked at each other and wanted to say something, but found that everyone had almost nothing to say when Stalin was away.
Soon this kind of mentality appeared in everyone's thoughts. If Stalin can't save him, everyone's relationship will usher in a round of changes. As soon as this idea appeared, it took root in the hearts of all the people present. can no longer be erased.
