Chapter 1,389 Beauty Trap

The role of the destroyer fleet is very important. Without the cover of the destroyer fleet, the aircraft carrier is really a target.

As for the British Royal Navy, it doesn’t have to learn from the U.S. Navy and has to adopt nuclear power. The two countries have different national conditions. If the United States can really build an all-nuclear fleet, there is nothing to say. It will definitely be superior to the British Royal Navy.

First gear.

But the United States cannot build an all-nuclear fleet. The combat radius of the U.S. Navy depends on how far the escort fleet can run, not how far the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can run. According to the barrel theory, shortcomings determine the overall performance, not strengths.

, no matter how far the nuclear power can travel, it cannot move on its own without the escort fleet.

"Okay, Secretary General." Maxkins raised his hand, indicating that everything was taken care of by him, and watched the supreme authority leave.

Denis Healy couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw this. He was the real Secretary of Defense, not the Secretary-General of the Cabinet. "Makins, it seems that you all attach great importance to the development of armaments. Hasn't there been any Secretary of Defense who told you about the development of armaments?"

Should enough be enough?"

"What is disarmament?" Makins listened to Dennis Healy's words and immediately recalled, "But I was not the permanent undersecretary of defense at that time. I heard that the Conservative Secretary of Defense Duncan once said this

The idea, that was a long time ago.”

Pakistani military leader Yahya Khan blatantly overturned the election that had already concluded. It can be said that it was extremely ugly, worse than Saddam's support rate of 98%. Although Saddam committed fraud,

At least he pretended that his support rate was very high, but Yahya Khan didn’t even have an explanation.

Britain's official congratulatory message has been sent out, but Yahya Khan overturned this decision. It is undoubtedly a slap in the face of Britain, which is intolerable.

As the prime minister of a world power, Harold Wilson still felt very superior when faced with this outcome, even though it had been discussed before.

It was under such circumstances that Alan Wilson arrived at No. 10 Downing Street. This matter should have been discussed with the Foreign Secretary, but the Foreign Secretary went to the United States and was arguing against the United States' efforts to use Germany and Japan to balance Britain and France, especially

It is aimed at Japan, and now only Alan Wilson, who is also the Deputy Secretary, is left in London.

"Prime Minister, it seems that there has been an outcome that we did not want." When Alan Wilson came, he happened to meet the Prime Minister's worried expression and immediately said, "We have tried our best to maintain peace, and this kind of outcome occurred.

You can do things with a clear conscience."

"If you can't afford to lose, don't start an election." Harold Wilson cursed the military leader Yahya Khan. What does this mean? What can you gain?

Alan Wilson knew that the Prime Minister was afraid of affecting the support rate, but it didn't matter, as long as the final result was good, it would not affect the Labor Party's support rate. "The UK has done everything, it is Pakistan's own problem, but is it possible?"

India will seize the opportunity."

"You mean India will take the opportunity to attack Pakistan?" Harold Wilson pondered for a moment and said, "Indeed, we had imagined this possibility at the beginning. How about Indira?"

"A tough Iron Lady." Alan Wilson did not hide his opinion and admired Indira Gandhi's style very much.

After several years, Indira Gandhi has overcome the internal constraints of the Congress Party, won the support of the broad masses of people inside and outside the party with her left-wing image, and introduced some radical measures.

Suppressing the economic activities of large consortiums, forcing the implementation of a new industrial licensing system, expanding production by monopoly consortiums, and opening up new products to establish new enterprises must be approved by government departments.

In his memory, few people in electoral countries touched on family planning, but Indira Gandhi really promoted it, and she also changed the propaganda and education during the Nehru period and promoted it with very radical means. To put it simply,

They performed sterilization surgeries on people, and four million people were sterilized in one year. This was an unheard of force. How dare Mr. Modi do this? Even he would not dare to do it if he was scared to death.

However, Alan Wilson still did not explain to the Prime Minister that the impact of this India-Pakistan war was actually that India completely adopted a pro-Soviet policy and only dared to dismember pro-American Pakistan by tying it up with the Soviet Union.

From India's perspective, India does not need a maritime power ally, and maritime powers are of no use to help India.

In later generations, India has resisted the pressure of the United States and refused to condemn Russia. This is because Russia is a powerful country with an army, while the United States is stronger than the navy. Russia is useful even if it does not send a single soldier. Even if the United States sends a navy across two oceans, it will not be able to help India.

Even if Russia is only half as powerful as the United States, India will stick to it without Russia having to say anything. Obviously, the Soviet Union in this era has the power to attract India.

However, in front of the current British Prime Minister, it is difficult for him to say that Britain is about to lose India. It is of no use and cannot change anything. Britain's national attribute is the same as that of the United States as a maritime power.

After discussion, the two of them decided that it would be better to wait and see for the time being. We, the British, have been leading the world for hundreds of years, and naturally we do not lack strategic determination. We cannot just take the lead when nothing happens.

Of course, Harold Wilson also agreed that the British forces in the Middle East and Far East should make some necessary contingency preparations, which are still being done secretly.

In the apartment, Xia Meng was busy preparing food and preparing to show off to a man of the same status as her husband. Next to her was a boy who had black hair and eyes, but had some mixed-race features. He complained that he was here to work.

, “Mother, is this considered child labor abuse?”

"Stop talking nonsense, you are my son." Xia Meng's face was as majestic as a mother's, and she kept stirring the spoon in her hand, stir-frying a simple dish, scrambled eggs with leeks.

There was a knock on the door at this moment, so Xia Meng didn't care about continuing to be a cook, and ran directly to open the door. A pack of wolfberry was first handed in through the crack of the door. Alan Wilson said while changing his shoes, "Burn some blisters."

On this day, there are always countless things waiting for me."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "My son is back." Xia Meng reminded in a low voice, the redness on her face showing that she was very embarrassed now.

"What's wrong? You're back as soon as you come back." Alan Wilson didn't think anything of it at all. He put down his briefcase and said, "After all, it should be taken care of. It's not good to leave it in Xiangjiang forever."

The head of the family is naturally dignified, so Alan Wilson sat down and took out a newly published book in 1970, titled American Empire in Precariat, and read it while waiting for dinner.

In a sense, this kind of book can be seen from the name. It is a variant of the American collapse theory. From this time to the Reagan period, it was a period of high incidence of such books. The next time we see this kind of book become popular, it will take 20 years.

After the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis.

After a while, Xia Meng finished cooking and came over to ask the head of the family to eat. He saw the book with square characters and couldn't help but say, "You still care extraordinarily about the East."

"With such a large population, do you think I'm a fool like Washington and take it for granted that pretending not to see it will be fine?" Alan Wilson put down the book and followed Xia Meng and said, "But I admit that your country's foundation is still very good.

Yes, I heard that there is neither domestic debt nor external debt. It can be said that the foundation has been laid. Now we need an opportunity."

Having neither domestic debt nor external debt is indeed a reflection of a large country today. Regardless of whether the internal or external leverage is zero, is this a good foundation? Anyway, Japan and Europe in later generations are burdened with huge debts, and Japan's debt is running towards 300%.

There is no room for fiscal intervention in any situation. Even if interest rates are raised by 1%, Japan cannot afford to pay back the interest rates. Does Japan like negative interest rates? There is no other way.

The family ate happily. Alan Wilson lit a cigar, enjoying the cigarette after the meal and said to Charlotte, "You need to change your accent. Xiangjiang's accent is not uncommon. Next time I see you

If your accent is still so severe, I will give you a complete childhood."

"I know, father." Charlotte's forehead was sweating. He was still afraid of this father, and he hurriedly promised that he would change.

"I'm underage. Let's call him Sir first. We won't do it next time!" Alan Wilson still fulfilled the role of a strict father and did not give Xia Meng's son any good face. "You are not allowed to speak English when you talk to me in the future. My Chinese is enough to talk to you."

.”

It was getting late after dinner, and it was time for Xia Meng to counterattack and count the consequences. She squeezed into the man's arms and complained about her son, "I think you just don't like us, mother and son."

"Stop making trouble, his world will be broad in the future." Alan Wilson is not saying that Xia Meng has not guessed it right at all. He has just become interested in this educational issue. After he became interested, he discovered the problem, such as Albert

Hey, I've been staying in Rhodesia for several months and I don't know what I'm doing.

Little did the old father in London know that his grown-up son was almost too happy to be here, lingering among the tall Slavic girls with red lips and white teeth.

We can't blame the heir to the supreme authority for not seeing the market. We blame Grace for deliberately plotting against a boy who is inexperienced and full of curiosity about the world. Didn't the supreme authority say that in order to show his sincerity, as long as Rhodesia doesn't

Independence and marriage are definitely not a problem, so what are you waiting for?

The endless wilderness of Rhodesia has become the best place for boys and girls to chase each other. The only thing they need is the sky and the ground as their bed. Although London is approaching the end of the year at this time, the climate here is not chilly at all. Albert can only

Feeling the warmth of spring and blooming flowers, it feels like being in a paradise.

"Sophia, wait for me." Albert was like a big licker, following his instinct to chase the girl in his heart, and his dissatisfaction with his father's strict order that he would consider joining the army a year later disappeared unknowingly.
