Reborn as a police officer in South Africa
2594 Lost Jingzhou carelessly
The truth is a threat when it is hidden. Once it is made public, it will be trouble not only for the United States, but also for southern Africa.
The purpose of the Russians is obvious, which is to use this opportunity to break the alliance between the Allied forces on the Western Front, and then break through the blockade of Russia by the Allied forces on the Western Front.
This one thing alone will definitely not achieve this goal.
But if there are too many similar things, even if Rock and Truman maintain the alliance out of concern for national interests, the people of the two countries will not agree.
In Potsdam now, the relationship between several major countries is very delicate. They seem to be allies, but in fact they are walking on thin ice, and the relationship can break down at any time.
Russia is using this incident to provide eye drops to the United States and Britain.
Southern Africa is also taking advantage of the Russian threat to increase Southern Africa's influence in Europe.
To Europe, Russia is like a ferocious tiger.
If the tigers are kept in cages, European countries will have to rely on aid from southern Africa.
Although Yang Smuts disliked the United States and Britain, he also disliked Russia.
No matter how inconsistent the interests of the United States and Britain are, this is also an internal contradiction within capitalist society.
Russia is a working class country.
The working class has limited understanding of the influence of capital.
Molotov originally thought that making the truth public would trigger conflicts between southern Africa and the United States, and then Russia could have both sides and continue to win support from the United States and southern Africa.
Don't listen to the tough talk from the bearded man. Who doesn't want free benefits?
What Molotov never expected was that Yang Smuts would not give the matter a chance to ferment.
The day after the press conference, Molotov did not see the scene he hoped for. The front page of "The Times" was about the upcoming general election in the United Kingdom, and the front page of "Le Figaro" was about the French branch of the Workers' International.
Support ratings continue to fall, and the front page of Nyasaland Daily is that the East Asian Allied Forces have launched a new round of offensive against Japan.
There were also newspapers that reported on the Allied conflict in Potsdam, but they were not relatively influential media, and they were not a key section. At most, they occupied a briefing about the size of a tofu block in the corner, which was inconspicuous.
The relatively influential media in Russia all publicized this conflict as a key report, and the effect was indeed effective. It not only made readers fully aware of the greedy nature of Western countries, but also greatly pleased Russian readers——
The focus is on this readership group.
What Molotov hopes to see is that the media in Europe and the United States report this incident as a focus, which will then arouse public attention.
Now this matter has not caused any waves in Western countries, and it has only continued to ferment in the areas covered by Russia's influence. This cannot achieve the desired goal at all.
"It's a pity. If we let us handle this matter, many people will feel uncomfortable." Alvin regrets that Russia is still rough and not good at micro-management.
This is the role of capital.
It doesn’t matter what the truth is. As long as it is bad news for Southern Africa, the Southern African federal government has the ability to completely block it and not give public opinion a chance to ferment.
The same is true in the United States. In the entire World War II, the United States lost 300,000 lives, and just one American soldier was not worthy of attention at all if he had no identity and background.
Even the senator didn't want this matter to attract media attention.
It is hard to say whether gold plating is easy to do. Americans keep saying that everyone is equal. The farmer's son goes to the front line to fight the enemy in bloody battles, while the senator's son stays in the safety of the rear and lives a happy life, waiting to share the glory of victory. It is agreed.
What about equality?
"This matter has gone so far." Rock didn't want to cause any complications. He just wanted to finish the meeting smoothly and go home early. Even his desire to fight for power and profit was not as strong as it was in southern Africa.
The main reason is that there is nothing to fight about. Now Germany is completely devastated. Even if Rock digs three feet into the ground, it will be difficult to scrape too much oil and water from Germany.
The Southern African Expeditionary Force all knows how to collect loot. American soldiers, Russians, and British soldiers are also not idle. In the past few months, Germany has been almost emptied, leaving only the land.

There is a saying that bandits pass through like a sieve and soldiers pass through a grate. The Allies did not take the masses at all. Every time they occupied a city, it was as clean as if it had been washed with water. All valuable things were taken away and left for the Germans.
The screws and nuts below are not matching.
The biggest advantage of street fighting is that nothing is left out. During the battle, if the soldiers saw something good, they would just put it in their pockets and whoever got it belonged to whom.
The follow-up troops also gained something, including large items that the soldiers could not move away, such as machines in factories, surplus materials in warehouses, technical data that the Germans had worked hard to accumulate for hundreds of years, and strange treasures snatched from Europe after the war broke out.
Even destroyed tanks and cars can be turned into money as long as they are not burned into empty shells.
On the 24th, the meeting continued. When discussing Germany's compensation, Big Beard not only confiscated the assets of the Russian-occupied areas in Germany and the corresponding German foreign investments, but also demanded that industrial facilities demolished from the Allied-occupied areas on the Western Front be removed.
Ten percent will be received free of charge, and fifteen percent of the goods paid will be used as compensation.
This request is legitimate. Russia suffered the greatest losses in this war and should receive the most compensation.
Rock and Truman did not struggle with Big Beard on this issue, and readily agreed to Big Beard's request.
Just pay it, it's not much money anyway, everything valuable has been demolished, Washington and Pretoria don't like the remaining brains, so the bearded man can take it if he wants.
As for Winston——
The British general election is about to begin. Winston has to return to the UK to take charge of the overall situation and cannot participate in the following meetings.
Before leaving, Winston came to Rock, hoping that Rock would not agree to any of the bearded requests until Winston came back.
"We cannot easily meet any of the Russians' demands. The Russians are extremely greedy and accustomed to pushing their limits. If we give in, it will send the wrong signal to the Russians and further stimulate the Russians' appetite." Winston's heart was filled with excitement.
In Potsdam, I didn’t want to go back to London at all.
"Don't worry about the Russians for now, focus on the election." Rock reminded Winston, don't let the small lose the big.
"The moment I announced my candidacy, the election was over!" Winston was as confident as Guan Yu who warmed wine and killed Hua Xiong.
This probably means that you drag the Russians away first and wait for me to come back and end it all.
It won't take a few days.
Rock was completely speechless. This was not the first time he reminded Winston. Unfortunately, he never paid Winston's attention.
Winston thought too well of the British and believed that he had made unparalleled contributions to Britain during the two world wars. Therefore, as long as Winston is willing to continue to serve as the British Prime Minister, the British will definitely support it with both hands.
.
So choosing whether to choose or not is simply superfluous and completely unnecessary.
"What the British are now concerned about is not the threat from Russia, but post-war reconstruction." Rock was worried that Winston would lose Jingzhou carelessly.
Winston's consistent toughness put him in a predicament of being self-willed. It was indeed a remarkable achievement to lead Britain to victory, but this honor also caused him to make wrong judgments.
Winston has always hated Russia, so he probably believes that all British people, like him, will regard the threat from Russia as a top priority and take it seriously.
Therefore, Winston's slogan is to block Russia and limit Russia's influence to the European continent and not expand to the British Isles.
From the British standpoint, it is definitely right.
However, for the vast majority of British people, they are tired of the war and have begun to doubt the role of continental equilibrium. They no longer even care about Britain's international status, and all their concerns are on restoring normal life order.
To put it bluntly, it doesn’t matter whether Britain is an empire on which the sun never sets. What matters is that the damn material rationing system should be abolished as soon as possible, so that milk and bread can reappear on the table, so that every British person has the time and ability to go on vacation——
Look at this demand, it is exactly the same as the slogan put forward by Mustache back then.
"Without national security, how can personal happiness come about?" Winston disagreed. The sun never sets on his British Empire.
It cannot be said that Winston was wrong. What he said was right, but it was inappropriate for the times and could not be recognized by the British.
There is no need to discuss the relationship between the country and individuals. Without a country, there is no family. The country is not strong, and even if it accumulates enough wealth, it cannot keep it. When Germany swept across Europe, it took away enough things, but it is not yet
You have to return it obediently.
Although the Palace of Sanssouci where Rock stayed was not destroyed by the war, it was looted by the rebels. It is said that the stolen exhibits were recovered only after the Bearded Man decided to hold a meeting in Potsdam.
Unfortunately, only part of it was recovered, and the other part was missing.
"It's not me who's going to argue with you, but Attlee." Rock reminded Winston not to get the wrong person to argue with.
When it comes to debate, it's useless no matter how much you talk. Even if Winston wins Attlee in the debate, it's useless if he can't convince the majority of the British people.
Rock's attention to the British election in Potsdam is no less than Winston's.
Unlike Winston, who was immersed in the war and couldn't extricate himself, Attlee had previously appeared as a spokesman for the interests of the British civilian class. His slogans were to improve social welfare, reduce taxes, reduce workers' working hours, and urge the financial sector to provide services for enterprises.
Provide low-interest loans and make every effort to restore the social economy.
Winston is better at grand narratives, so he can lead Britain to win the world war.
Attlee was more concerned about people's livelihood. Regardless of whether he could do it or not, at least he showed that he valued the British more than Winston.
Winston's focus is on Britain.
Looking at it this way, the difference between the two people is obvious.
All right, all right.
But theory is meaningless if it is divorced from reality.
"I need your support more than Attlee." The relationship with Rock is also a source of confidence for Winston.
Whether Rock wants it or not, he has actually become one of Winston's bargaining chips.
After Neville stepped down, Winston's personal relationship with Rock played a very important role in why he was able to obtain the support of the British King and the British Parliament.
No country can ignore the strength of southern Africa.
Winston and Rock have a very good personal relationship. The two of them can easily reach an agreement on many issues. To put it bluntly, they are both loans. If Winston goes out to find Rock, the interest rate will be lower than normal.
one point.
Others went to look for Roque, but they might not even see him in person.
Therefore, as long as the relationship with Roque is maintained, it is equivalent to maintaining the relationship between Britain and southern Africa.
"Of course, I will be your friend forever." Rock said this, which made Winston very happy.
Winston did not hear the implication of Rock's words.
Rock's meaning is also very clear.
Winston comes to Roark, and Roark will provide Winston with the greatest convenience within the scope of his authority.
If Attlee became the British Prime Minister and came to Roque, would Roque turn a blind eye?
impossible.
The difference between Winston and Attlee is most reflected in whether they will go to the study on the second floor of the apse of the Palace of Justice for another drink after the reception dinner. It will not affect the relationship between southern Africa and Britain.
The relationship between Southern Africa and the United Kingdom only depends on the interests of Southern Africa and has nothing to do with who is the British Prime Minister.
From Rock's point of view, Rock certainly hopes that Winston wins the election.
But if Attlee wins the election, Rock will also send due congratulations to Attlee.
Southern Africa cannot sever diplomatic relations with Britain just because Winston lost the election.
Southern Africa has not yet severed diplomatic ties with Russia.
After sending the confident Winston onto the plane, Rock turned around and told Alvin to pay more attention to Attlee.
On Brad's office's attention list, Attlee is definitely on the list, but he is ranked behind Winston in terms of attention.
The situation is different now. Winston, who is no longer the British Prime Minister, is just an old friend to Roque and Southern Africa.
"Are the British so ruthless?" Alvin's understanding of the British is not clear enough.
This cannot be blamed on Alvin. The British are capable of constantly refreshing people's understanding of morality.
"Not only the British, but everyone is the same. They will instinctively choose the side that is most beneficial to them." Rock doesn't care whether the British are humane or not, and it applies to everyone.
Alvin actually doesn't care whether Winston can win the election. What he cares about is whether southern Africans will be as new and dislike the old as the British.
Of course this is not a problem for Alvin.
The preferences of southern Africans can be guided.
During the rise of Southern Africa, the Locke family gained the most benefits, surpassing Rhodes and Matilda and becoming the most powerful capital group in Southern Africa.
But you see, there are southern African news media who dare to make irresponsible remarks on this matter. What southern Africans can see and hear are all the good deeds of the Locke family, and there is no negative news at all.
