British Civil Servant

Chapter 39: French woman

"As for the French-occupied area, we will coordinate with the three countries, and we will naturally move in at the same time. When we came, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs already had a record." Alan Wilson informed the French representative, and then said, "I believe that France is now Although it was a bit sluggish, the recovery was quick."

After all, the foundation of France is still very good. Agriculture does not seem to be important in modern society, but it is a fatal problem. Agriculture is stable, a country will not go to chaos, France is precisely an agricultural empire.

Occupying the best land in Europe, this kind of conditions is excellent. The two world wars have affected a large part of France, but there is no food crisis in France. If the area of ​​France's mainland is larger, it may be in the international food order. America will stand aside.

Eiffel emphasized to the French delegates present, "We in the UK have always expected France to play a greater role in the post-war order, because in a sense, Britain and France must do so."

The official communication about the French-occupied area has ended. Alan Wilson, who knew that the French enjoy the exquisite life, left the other party to rest at the representative office and prepare a drink by the way.

"The French are not easy to deal with. It is too difficult to deal with them, even if we have good intentions. Although I also understand that at this time, it is only right for the French to stand with us." Eiffel took the wine glass Covered in front of mouth, eyes on French representative's place, whispering to Alan Wilson.

"There's no way to do this. I just want the French to understand the current plight of our two countries." Alan Wilson nodded with a sullen face, and then walked to the French representative with a gentle smile. The necessary social interaction is required. .

A moment later, Alan Wilson had reached the middle of the French representatives. Although he didn't know much about French politics, he still knew one basic thing. Every country has a group of civil servants.

Inquiring about news is most effective in this group. This is also part of Alan Wilson's work. Of course, this can be done through small talk. If there is a topic that the UK and France can have the most consistent attitudes to at present, it is not against Germany. Occupied territorial issues, colonies!

As former world order makers, Britain and France both retain nominally large colonies. The unindependent colonies in the hands of the two countries have an area of ​​more than 40 million square kilometers. The Yalta Conference Britain became the Big Three, and then the United Kingdom helped France to obtain the occupied area of ​​Germany. These colonies are all credits.

If there are no colonies in hand, the two former colonial empires of Britain and France are nothing at all. Alan Wilson understands this better than anyone else. If you don't want to hold on to some colonies, Britain will inevitably become a voice in the decades to come. Only by finding ways to preserve some important places can Britain make its own voice.

And the countries in the same situation as the United Kingdom are not just France, but the Netherlands, Portugal and even Belgium.

"Pierre!" Alan Wilson asked at the same time, pouring a glass for Pierre Le Mans, "Our two countries now have a common situation. Before I left from British India, I heard that something happened in Vietnam. , what do you think of that colony?"

During the World War, the French Pétain government surrendered to Germany. In the same year, Japan established the policy of advancing southward by force, and the French Vichy government agreed with Japan to station troops in North Vietnam. Japan and France co-administer Vietnam until this year.

However, in March, the Japanese army staged a coup d'etat, disarmed the French army, imprisoned Admiral Jean Decourt, governor of the French Indochina Federation, and other French officers, took over the French colonial institutions, and brought Paul to power.

Subsequently, Bao Dai issued a statement announcing the restoration of the independent Annan state, abolishing the Vietnam-French protection treaty signed before, and guaranteeing cooperation with Japan.

When asked this question, Alan Wilson of course asked it knowingly. Similarly, Pierre Le Mans replied very simply, "France will not accept it. Any country will plunder France's overseas territories for any reason."

Oh! This answer is not surprising. Alan Wilson took the initiative to reach out and have a cup with the other party, and said, "I personally have great respect for this attitude of France, and I hope everything goes well."

Being both colonial empires, the colonial strategies of France and the United Kingdom were also different. The British government knew in their hearts that those lands were colonies, and of course the French also knew in their hearts, but they also believed that the land itself was a part of France.

Alan Wilson is not unfamiliar with this kind of self-talk since ancient times, based on the memory of his previous life. It is nothing more than ignoring the evidence that is unfavorable to you and looking for evidence that is favorable.

When you mention the status of Vietnam, you can know the current understanding of the entire colony within the French government. It is by no means an open-minded chat. As long as the French maintain their current attitude, Alan Wilson believes that there will be opportunities for cooperation between the two parties in the future.

After relaxing for a while, Pierre Le Mans and others left the representative office~www.readwn.com~ It was the afternoon, and the streets of Paris seemed to have returned to their peaceful appearance.

It must be admitted that, as the originator of modern urban planning, Paris is no less famous in the world than London, and even more famous. The French are famous in literature and art. There are thick filters, and even Paris syndrome.

The etiology of Paris syndrome is a mental illness caused by the huge difference between the real Paris and the imagination that Japanese tourists find in Paris. The elegant manners of Japanese Parisians, exquisite French food and luxury goods such as Louis Vuitton bags , When I came to Paris and saw **** all over the street, it was inevitable that there would be a psychological gap.

To a certain extent, the translation into Chinese can be explained as being more patriotic after leaving the country. It may be that the Japanese themselves are more disappointed, and they are greatly disappointed.

Now that World War II has just ended, Paris is not full of all kinds of people from the third world, and it is completely the same as old France.

"Why is there a group of people in front of you?" Seeing that the speed of the car slowed down, Alan Wilson asked suspiciously. To be honest, Paris has a very good plan, and there should be no containment.

"Nothing?" Pierre Le Mans, who was sitting in the front, glanced at him and answered somewhat indifferently.

Alan Wilson had already gotten out of the car and looked into the distance, and the fast others didn't react. When he saw eye-catching, men would always show their potential. For example, seeing a woman without clothes...not a... …

A dozen women were stripped of their clothes and were being paraded through the streets amid the clamor of onlookers. This is part of the post-war liquidation!

"Oh hoo!" Alan Wilson made a strange tone, looking back at Pierre Le Mans playfully.
