A major event that determines the direction of the world? Pamela Mountbatten's face was full of suspicion when she heard it. Based on her understanding of her husband, this kind of thing? It couldn't be a rocket ride, right?

Yes and no! Riding a rocket is an important foundation for a couple's relationship, but in such a public place as the London Airport, how could Alan Wilson say what was in his heart? It made him look like a lecherous ghost, although it was almost the same.

Holding his wife's hand and walking out of the airport, the car was already waiting outside the airport. The richest woman fell into her husband's arms habitually, "Did the roundtable meeting go smoothly?"

"It's okay, it can be said to be smooth or not. Anyway, we are not planning to take this place." Alan Wilson said in a calm tone, "The main problem is the political system. After the Saudis were overthrown, the Sudan of Yemen was

The political system is very concerned about it, and it is almost written on their faces.”

"The Saudis are concerned. I remember that Saudi Arabia is not a very powerful country in the Middle East." Pamela Mountbatten said amused when she heard this. "It is Saudi Arabia's turn to care about British affairs?"

The view of the richest woman is not wrong at all in this era. The current population of Saudi Arabia is more than 4 million. In the Arab world, the population boom has not generally occurred in the 1960s. Population is really an important criterion for determining the internal status of the Arab world. Is population a dividend?

, it needs to match a series of basic conditions such as the country’s resources and land.

Why is Egypt the leader of the Arab world in this era? Egypt has a population of 30 million, and it can raise a million-strong army through conscription. This is something that Saudi Arabia cannot do under any circumstances.

This will not change just because Saudi Arabia has two riches. During the Cold War, the Arab countries in front of Saudi Arabia were more optimistic. Egypt, Syria, Iraq and even Jordan were all more influential than Saudi Arabia.

Even before the Gulf War, Saddam looked like the natural leader of the Arab world, and Saudi Arabia had to bow to Saddam.

Why is Saudi Arabia never known for its combat effectiveness? Pakistan is so poor, but Saudi Arabia is full of courtesy to Pakistan. It also expects the maximum combat power of this peaceful world to help itself when trouble occurs.

Alan Wilson only made a few comments about Saudi Arabia casually, but Pamela Mountbatten was obviously very interested in Saudi Arabia and asked, "Is there any room to enter Saudi Arabia?"

"The United States will explode, don't humiliate yourself. This country has learned all the skills of the British in terms of being despicable and shameless." Alan Wilson categorically rejected his wife's adventurous thinking, "Now your group has become the British

Don't take such risky moves. At least for now, the United States is still extremely powerful. Speaking of this issue, we will have a good chat when we get home."

There are actually many ways to make Saudi Arabia, a pro-American country, uncomfortable. There are many threats that Saudi Arabia will be able to deal with in later generations, but Saudi Arabia may not be able to deal with them in this era. In fact, it is very simple. Today's Saudi Arabia is not that prestigious oil kingdom.

There are three countries ranked ahead of Saudi Arabia.

If Alan Wilson wants Saudi Arabia to keep a low profile, for example, if he spreads the idea that all Shias are one family in Iran, it will be enough to make Saudi Arabia nervous. Most of Saudi Arabia's oil is in the eastern coastal area. Iran is across the strait, and the Saudi coast

The main faith in the region is not the mainstream faith in Saudi Arabia, but Shia.

In fact, there is an immediate matter that can be dealt with, and that is Yemen. The main population of Yemen is in North Yemen, and North Yemen is where the Shiites dominate.

Saudi Arabia is a monarchy, and Britain wants Yemen to be a republic because the monarch in Yemen has been overthrown.

If Saudi Arabia is a monarchy, and Yemen is a republic, if Saudi Arabia is a pro-American country, Yemen is a pro-Soviet country, Saudi Arabia is Sunni, and Yemen is Shiite, wouldn't everyone have a bright future?

Unless Saudi Arabia can bribe the United Kingdom with a billion dollars, otherwise, Alan Wilson has no reason to arrange the future of Yemen according to Saudi Arabia's ideas, and bribery is likely to be useless, because fundamentally Yemen and Saudi Arabia are not the same type of country.

.

As long as Saudi Arabia provides enough, Britain's position can be flexible enough, just like Alan Wilson's mental journey in his previous life. When there is no aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier is a living target. When there are two ski-jump aircraft carriers, the aircraft carrier is useless and not entirely right.

, after the construction of the electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier started, the theory that the aircraft carrier was useless was so stupid that it was not worth refuting.

After the successful test launch of the anti-ship ballistic missile, the Cabinet Secretary said, "The aircraft carrier is a living target." As long as his position is flexible enough, he will be invincible.

"My husband, you have worked so hard." When she got home, Pamela Mountbatten took the initiative to give her husband a deep kiss, and then said, "It seems that the situation in many places has become worse this year. Pakistan and India are also mutually exclusive.

To put it bluntly, the United States is also sending more troops to South Vietnam, not to mention Indonesia, and the Australians are scared."

"At least Europe is calm. Except for France." Alan Wilson sat down on the sofa. "This suspicious ally of ours has been quite active in the past few years. He has begun to bravely move towards the goal of becoming a world power. He is secretly thinking about it.

Gold in American Hands.”

"Really?" Pamela Mountbatten frowned slightly and asked, "Then what should we do? Should we stand with the Americans, or?"

"This matter is more complicated. I haven't thought about it yet, but don't think that the UK will not take action." Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows. Among the countries that attacked the US dollar in the 1960s and 1970s, none of the three European countries, Britain, France and Germany, were innocent. They were the first to take action.

Just because it's France, it doesn't mean other countries are clean.

If we stand on the side of the United States and let France return without success, it is certainly possible to settle the share with the current British pound. But the advantage of doing so is that the pound will still inevitably die slowly.

Although Alan Wilson tried his best to protect the settlement share of the British pound, he even supported Malaya, a colony that was not dominated by white people. But this turned Britain's collapse into a chronic shrinkage.

If France is held down, the United States will still eat up the pound's space bit by bit. The process may be more tortuous, but the result will not change.

So why jump out to block the knife for the United States? Is this operation to make the United States great again? Let the United Kingdom be the follower later? Is this the meaning of Alan Wilson's work?

Sooner or later, the British pound will be attacked, but it is just a matter of timing. The key is that we cannot let another person take advantage. The country that attacked the United States in the 1960s and 1970s also had a heavyweight player.

The Germans. In fact, since the birth of the euro, they have known that Germany is the final winner.

Alan Wilson cannot let the Germans take advantage, at least not enough to establish the basis of the euro, so there is still something to consider about this matter.

Because of its first-mover advantage as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, Britain used maritime hegemony as the backing and financial strength as leverage to establish a colonial empire spanning Europe, America, Asia, Africa and Oceania, monopolizing the global supply of raw materials and energy.

It controls the division of the world market, controls the channels for ocean trade, and controls the flow of international capital.

The world's gold flows to London from gold mines in South Africa, Canada, the United States, Russia, Brazil, Australia and other places. The Bank of England creates the pound sterling that travels around the world based on its gold reserves. Then pound capital and industrial products flow from the UK to the world market.

In the end, huge profits carried more gold back to London, completing the great cycle of international capital.

Even now, the pound is much stronger than the French franc. If we want to take action, should we wait until the French are suppressed or take action together with the French? This issue needs to be carefully considered.

After learning of Alan Wilson's doubts, Pamela Mountbatten was silent for a moment and asked, "My dear, can't the Bretton Woods system be maintained?"

"There are loopholes in that system, and it will be a matter of time that it cannot be maintained. In fact, our original suggestion was right. Commodity pricing is the long-term solution. The United States did not agree at the time because Britain still controlled many colonies, and

Gold was America’s most powerful financial weapon at the time.”

Alan Wilson said truthfully, "From a position of strength, our reasonable suggestions were also rejected by the Americans. If the Bretton Woods system collapses, I'm sure the United States will find ways to link commodities. Don't look at them in 1944

I have been firmly opposed to doing this for four years. Is it important to have money and face?"

"In order to prevent this kind of result, the British garrison in the Persian Gulf must not retreat." Pamela Mountbatten said something for no reason, and then said, "I asked you to let me focus on Australia. In terms of the quality of iron ore,

No country in the world can compete with Australia. British troops stationed in Australia must also stay in Australia for a long time."

"Hmm, that's right. This is actually to prepare for the world after the collapse of the Bretton Woods system. It's not yet that step. If the United States cannot win the Vietnam War quickly, as time goes by, the United States will secretly overrun the war.

Who knows about currency? The French know this and are making the United States very unhappy by shouting about it."

Alan Wilson returned to the French issue, and then kicked the ball to his wife's side, "If it were you, how would you view this issue and how would you make a decision?"

"The country is responsible for this kind of thing. Is London prepared to remain indifferent?" When Pamela Mountbatten heard this, she almost wanted to question the reliability of this government?

"We don't know how much the U.S. dollar has been issued. It is impossible to stand firmly with France." Alan Wilson shook his head and said, "I am only the cabinet secretary, not the prime minister. Furthermore, we keep talking about the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

Then it was stabbed in the back for the first time. If France takes advantage and avoids retaliation, it may make some people in the country excited. Now we don’t know how far France can go? Do you want me to ask De Gaulle what he has prepared?

Is everything okay?"

"I suggest that we act together with the French. What do you think?" Pamela Mountbatten expressed her thoughts and then looked at her husband.
