Chapter 208 Advice on Sharing Risks
Dragging his chin with one hand, listening to Alisa's report absent-mindedly, Alan Wilson was still reminiscing about yesterday's fierce battle, and he was quite satisfied with his performance in his heart. After all, he had once defeated two dragoons head-on. Isn't it easy for a Vivien Leigh?
Although the actress is in the year of the tiger and wolf, the two experienced dragoons are not easy to get along with. As far as the intensity of the war is concerned, each has its own merits.
However, considering the hardware, the Dragoon sisters are obviously better, because of their youth and hardware advantages.
Compared with the outstanding appearance, Vivien Leigh, who is relatively average in other aspects, is very balanced in all aspects. It must be admitted that it is reasonable for German cars to sell well all over the world.
In comparison, after decades, British cars can only work hard on high-end brands. The sense of accomplishment brought by Vivien Leigh's fame can be compared to McLaren's status in the eyes of ordinary people.
"Representatives of Tubang have arrived one after another. As Assistant Allen ordered, we deliberately blocked the news and did not disclose it to anyone." Alyssa found that Allen Wilson was absent-minded when she said this, and asked in confusion, "Assistant Commissioner, you Are you listening?"
"This is Hyderabad, not New Delhi, so don't call the commissioner's assistant." Allen Wilson smiled apologetically when he came back to his senses, "I was distracted just now, and I remembered the car in China."

"Oh, that's normal. I don't really know much about cars. I've heard of Bentley, Rolls-Royce and Aston Martin, but that's just what I heard." Alisa really thought her The boss was thinking about cars, so he changed the subject, "Andy knows a lot about car brands, it seems like a waste of time to me, like? Huh?"
"You poor people really understand cars?" Allen Wilson blurted out, remembering a joke from the Internet in later generations.
"Yes, that's pretty much what it means." Alyssa nodded hurriedly when she heard it, "It's clear and logical, but it's not that I can't afford any of my favorite brands."
"Alyssa, it takes time for a man to grow up." Allen Wilson defended Andy, and couldn't bear Andy to leave such an impression in Alyssa's heart. Unfortunately, he really didn't have much stock in this area, so he defended Andy's defense to the end. No one knows whether Alisa was listened to or not.
Alan Wilson, who had a bad start, gave up his efforts decisively, and talked with the female assistant about the meeting process with the Tubang representative. The central idea was to guide the Tubang Maharaja to transfer his property to London.
This is not a very inscrutable strategy. During the Han Dynasty, there was such a policy. Liu Bang ordered all the powerful clans, heroes and famous families of the six countries in the Kanto region to move to Guanzhong. Relocating these powerful clan heroes here not only avoided their rebellion, but also avoided their annexation of the land, and naturally put an end to the powerful landlords.
It's not that there are mausoleums in London for these maharajas to guard, it's just for money. Not all the monarchs of nearly 600 maharajas have money, but the top 15 maharajas, including Hyderabad, Monarchs are rich and invincible existences.
It’s just that Ali Khan is the most famous among them. He has ruled Hyderabad for hundreds of years, and the accumulation of generations has made Ali Khan stand out from the crowd. It does not mean that the maharajas of other big states are poor.
What's more, isn't there a commissioner like him who can solve problems for the Maharaja Tubang?
Before coming to Hyderabad, Alan Wilson sent a telegram to London, which contained a plan to deal with the resistance of British India. It can be said that the plan is very messy, but it is almost the correspondence that Alan Wilson can think of. It's all written in it.
This meant that he had to mention that before he left New Delhi, he learned that the representative of the Kingdom of Nepal had met Sir Barron. The arrival of the Nepalese representative reminded him of his coming to Hyderabad.
That is, the United Kingdom invaded Nepal. What a novelty. There are no countries in the world that have been invaded by the United Kingdom. According to the statistics of the 21st century, there are only 22 countries in more than 200 countries that have not been invaded by the British Expeditionary Force.
The fact that Nepal was invaded is nothing new, and the fact that it was not invaded shows that there must be something wrong with the British Empire.
After the Anglo-Nepal War from 1814 to 1816, the Sugaoli Treaty was signed, and the territory was ceded to the area under the British East India Company. This area has a total of more than 70,000 square kilometers, almost the area of Nepal Half of the area, one-third of the territory of Nepal at that time.
What if Nehru? In the last moments of the British Empire in the subcontinent, it was very disrespectful, so Alan Wilson was about to perform an imperialist conscience discovery.
Since British India was a colonizer and the victim of Nepal is still there, abolishing the Sugaoli Treaty, an obviously unequal treaty, should be regarded as a just move to set things right.
The telegram also mentioned the role of British Ceylon and the Andaman Islands. This is also in line with the comeback theory of some members of the parliament. Since it is only temporarily retreating and waiting for a comeback, is it plausible that there is no base to land at any time?
As for instigating typographical waves in the British colonies, it is only a suggestion at the end of the telegram.
The first person to arrive in Hyderabad was Alan Wilson's old friend, Pedro from the Portuguese Governor's Palace. Alan Wilson and Pedro chatted while eating. The most concerned issue for Pedro was the positioning of Portuguese Goa. ?
Alan Wilson said, "Things have not yet turned into the worst outcome. If one day we the British really can't stay, we will definitely sign a treaty to guarantee the status of Portuguese Goa. However, based on my respect for Nehru I understand that Portugal still needs to prepare early.”
"You know Portugal's attitude towards the British Empire for a long time, Alan, if this kind of result occurs. My domestic opinion is to invite the British army to station in Goa." Pedro said with a serious face, "as Portugal, a small and poor country participating in the Brussels Conference, is still under pressure to help Britain, France and the Netherlands return to Asia, perfectly embodying the spirit of the Brussels Conference.”
"Don't dare to talk nonsense!" Alan Wilson said with a shocked expression, "Didn't you hear that our enemy, the Soviet Union, and our suspicious ally, the Americans, said that one wants to liberate the world, and the other wants national self-determination. The Brussels conference was an economic revival conference, there was and never was a colonial state security plan."
"However, whether it is the Netherlands, Belgium or us and Spain, not to mention you, Britain and France, the actions you have made have been exposed." Seeing Alan Wilson's performance, Pedro smiled wryly, "It's not everyone Do you know something?"
"Even if the whole world knows it, we can't admit it." Allen Wilson said, "It is a backward nation in the colony, and invites the power of advanced countries to stay and maintain local stability. After all, people like Nehru There are still not many people who are overestimated, by the way, if Goa has extra strength, can you spare some fleet to help transport the rapes to the Andaman Islands?"
Regarding the status of Goa, Alan Wilson made a verbal guarantee. As for whether Britain will be stationed in Goa at the request of Portugal, that is a matter for the foreign ministries of the two countries. This has nothing to do with the Ministry of Indian Affairs. Said that as a member of the Ministry of Indian Affairs, Alan Wilson will try to create favorable conditions for Portugal.
In any case, everyone is a member of the colonial family, and it is right to help each other, and this has been done since the Brussels meeting.
In the next five days, representatives of the states whose destination was Hyderabad arrived one after another. These allies of the British Empire in the subcontinent will have sincere discussions on some issues of common concern.
"I'm restless everywhere!" Vivien Li, who was fiddling with the tools of the crime, said winkingly, "You don't have a girlfriend, why do you have so many tricks every day? How many girls have you harmed?"
"You are the first!" Answering Vivien Leigh with a confident tone, Allen Wilson said, worrying about the country and the people, "I am doing this for the country, to make the stars have a happy mood. I have paid too much for the empire. "
"It's really too much." The corners of Vivien Leigh's lips curled up slightly, "The British Empire asked you to comfort a public figure like this?"
As a creature like a woman, once a factual relationship occurs, all kinds of tiger and wolf words will come out of your head.
Vivien Leigh is not afraid of Alan Wilson at all now, and even thinks this little boy is very interesting, especially the sanctimonious appearance, which makes people laugh.
"Alisa will accompany you around these few days, and I have to do some chores." Alan Wilson got up and dressed, looked at the messy bedroom and asked, "Do you want to take a bath?"
Vivien Li sat up directly, sat on the edge of the bed without a trace, and said in an inviting tone, "Then why don't you carry me over?"
"Dear guests, welcome to Hyderabad. I understand that this is the invitation of Maharaja Ali Khan, so it will be so neat." A day later, Alan Wilson stood in the sun in Ali Khan's palace. Under the circumstances, with sincere goodwill, I began to meet with these representatives of the Tubang who came from afar.
After the opening remarks, the representatives of the major states asked the question that Ali Khan had asked before. Is the British Empire really going to withdraw from the subcontinent?
"Not necessarily, we want to stay as much as possible. But we also need the help of the monarchs. The more help we can get from the state, the more initiative the Governor's Mansion will have." Allen Wilson sees what people say, hell To be honest, in front of Tubang, of course, it cannot be admitted that Britain can't stay any longer.
"Of course, we will try our best to create a favorable environment for Tubang. For example, I have an idea now, and everyone can listen to it."
Alan Wilson envisioned a future in which the Congress Party takes a tough attitude towards the major states after the British withdrawal, and asked whether the current state has the strength to withstand the attack of the Congress Party?
There was an awkward silence, and the answer spoke for itself. Alan Wilson said again, "Actually, I have a few suggestions. I hope that all maharajas can share the risk equally, and they must put their long-term accumulated wealth in a safe place."
