Chapter 562 France Is Not Threatened

De Gaulle has long been the leader of the French military, even if he now has to live in seclusion. France is a country prone to revolution at every turn, and the military is no exception. The person the French military admires most is Napoleon.

Because of this, de Gaulle, with the support of the military, became the president of France at the last moment of suppressing the Algerian war. Of course, de Gaulle did not make the military's wish come true in the end, because he was really not Napoleon.

Precisely because de Gaulle is living in seclusion, France is still experiencing frequent changes in government. Alan Wilson just remembered whether he should do something about the establishment of NATO.

There are several advantages at present. French politics is in chaos. De Gaulle, as a military leader, has been driven into seclusion by various parties. But the United States has high hopes for France. After all, Germany does not exist. The only country in Europe that is counting on an army to confront the Soviet Union is France.

This is the true thinking of the United States, and it is by no means what Alan Wilson induced him to think. He also has no ability to induce a country to make decisions. All he can do is make the best of the situation. After judging the trends of the United States, let the United Kingdom pay less and gain more.

Until now, Alan Wilson still thinks he has a plan, but he doesn’t know that although he can defend against the Cambridge Five, he cannot defend against the sugar-coated bullets of the Dragoons. Moscow now has a clear idea of ​​the Federal Republic of Germany and NATO that are brewing in Western Europe. Chu.

It is even known that Britain has a hint of distrust in the combat effectiveness of the US military. This must be used!

Moscow, which only acted but did not talk, suddenly increased the amount of military supplies entering North Korea, passing it through the hands of the People's Army, trying to embarrass the Eighth Army as much as possible.

Alan Wilson, who left the gentle country of Dragoon, went to Paris like the American representatives to do the work of persuading the French to take into account the overall situation.

The French want to form a coal and iron community to suppress the Germans, and Britain has helped the French do this.

Although Alan Wilson used Australian iron ore as a backup to provide Britain with a back-up, it is undeniable that Britain helped the French out of goodwill. The benefits of the coal-iron community to France need not be overstated.

Although the Marshall Plan has been implemented, the streets and alleys of Paris can still be seen at a glance. The momentum of the French Communist Party has not declined much. After all, it is an old revolutionary area. The influence of the French Communist Party can even last until the May storm.

On the train to Paris, the British and American representatives had already exchanged views. Alan Wilson still did not come forward. He just said through the British representative that the cornerstone of European stability lies in France, and the French Communist Party is now so powerful that American military bases should Emphasis is placed on France.

The advantage of this is to prevent the French Communist Party, the Soviet Union's leading party, from causing trouble once conflicts in Europe intensify.

In this regard,

Americans are convinced that judging from the current situation, Italy and France, where the Italian Communist Party and the French Communist Party are located, must become the top priority of the United States' defense system in Europe.

"The British still have vision!" After listening to the British opinions, the American representatives also expressed their recognition of the diplomatic capabilities of the old imperialists when talking to each other.

After all, Alan Wilson came here to take credit for his achievements, and his biggest purpose was to show up for a group photo when there were results. Naturally, I don’t know what the official representatives said. But he is not bragging, nor is he modest in comparison...

Since he was not an official negotiator, he actually had plenty of time. The first thing he did was to visit Hedy Lamarr, who had not appeared in the public eye for several months.

It is very normal for him to return to Europe to visit his beloved woman. In front of Hedy Lamarr, he naturally cannot say that he will come back to work. The main purpose is to return to Europe anxiously because of missing Hedy Lamarr.

"You should be an actor, how can you lie so calmly." Hedy Lamarr rolled her eyes at Alan Wilson angrily, "Let me ask you, why did you ask Ingrid to go to Asia? You Do you want all the beautiful female celebrities to give you children?"

"Have you not been out for a long time?" Alan Wilson looked suspicious. "How do you know Ingrid has been to Asia? You don't know whether she has left Paris."

"Because Ingrid has been in contact with Greta recently, she hopes that Greta will help manage the affairs of Woodpecker Pictures and give her a year to rest." Hedy Lamarr curled her lips and said, "What happened and needed a year to rest? In addition to giving birth to a child, child!"

cough! Alan Wilson cleared his throat, made an affectionate expression, bent down and kissed Hedy Lamarr's red lips, and put his warm palm on Hedy Lamarr's belly, "It's my fault, but I can't I am indifferent to your amazing charm."

"Since Vivian, you must have said this many times, right?" Hedy Lamarr sighed, "I don't ask for anything else. I am older than you. Since you don't care now, in the future We have to accept the age gap as well.”

Of course Alan Wilson swears by this, and there are many people of the right age, such as the new generation of British actress Hepburn.

After Hedy Lamarr, Alan Wilson went to Woodpecker Pictures headquarters, and Ingrid Bergman was in her usual shape, showing no inconveniences.

Moreover, Ingrid Bergman is considered a very tall woman, so it is easier to hide the changes in her belly.

But in the face of the man's careful verification, Ingrid Bergman still embarrassedly admitted that it was indeed true.

"Are you very proud? There are so many beautiful women risking their reputation to bear children for you." Ingrid Bergman gritted her silver teeth, "Now Woodpecker Pictures has assistants from Northern Rhodesia, you Are you happy?"

"Oh, Ingrid, you know, I'm not sensitive about money. What I like is to see the women I love succeed. I'm willing to help you for this. The successful acquisition of United Artists Pictures shows this. What?"

Alan Wilson looked aggrieved and pitiful, hoping that Ingrid Bergman could forgive him for some of his personal ethics problems, and that capable men should receive more care.

"There's really nothing I can do about you." Ingrid Bergman glanced at her face and muttered secretly.

Alan Wilson fished for seniority and comforted the women at the same time, entering the Korean peninsula in August, thinking about the familiar evolution of the Busan defensive perimeter.

During the first confrontation in the Battle of Osan in July, the disastrous defeat of Task Force Smith, which was the first to participate in the battle, made the U.S. military understand the predicament that the reinforcements were unable to protect themselves.

However, the 24th Infantry Division of the U.S. Eighth Army continued to resist in the central part of the Korean Peninsula. It was not defeated until the Battle of Daejeon in mid-July. When the entire division retreated on July 20, it lost 60% of its organizational equipment. Forty-five percent of the established force, with more than 7,000 casualties, and the company commander Major General William Frisch Dean were captured after the battle; the half-month gained before the collapse of the 24th Infantry Division allowed the United Nations to The U.S. military has the means to step up its pace of reinforcements. After July, new United Nations reinforcements continued to land on the Korean Peninsula every day.

The 1st Cavalry Division and the 25th Infantry Division landed on the Korean Peninsula, and then assembled in Busan as ordered to build a defense line with Daegu as the core. After the fall of Jinju, the land controlled by the US-South Korean coalition forces became the Busan Defense Circle in people's minds.

This was the general background of Alan Wilson when he was seeking seniority, so he had previously expressed doubts about the United States' combat effectiveness through the British representative, Lord Magins of Sheffield, which made the American representative in Bonn uncomfortable.

Because facing a country that it had never heard of, the United States was beaten into disgrace. The commander of the 24th Infantry Division was captured and the troops were annihilated. It is indeed difficult for the United States to prove that the United States is as powerful as it says. The Soviet Union on Ouzhu's side is much more difficult to deal with than North Korea.

The current leader of France is Rene Plivin, the sixth president of the French Council of Ministers after the war. Rene Plivin has just taken office less than a month ago, replacing the radical socialist Henri Kaye who was the head of the government for ten days. Became the current head of the French government.

Rene Priven's main idea is to establish a European army! Alan Wilson can conclude that the establishment of a European army is something that Americans definitely do not want to see.

And this will cast a shadow over the NATO that Britain and the United States are preparing. The views of various factions in French politics varied greatly, and the people leading France at this time were interested in building a European army.

Alan Wilson and the Americans who came along felt that the goal might not be achieved so easily.

Sure enough, the development of things requires all conditions to be in place. During this period, it was a politician who was interested in European military forces who led France, so the proposals of Britain and the United States were given a cold reception.

Seeing this situation, Alan Wilson sent a message to the Americans through Maxkins, couldn't he launch a coup or something?

This kind of suggestion with evil intentions was naturally rejected by the Americans. After discussion, the Americans decided to use the old method of threatening to terminate the assistance of the Marshall Plan to make the French bow their heads.

However, this move made Rene Plevin very disgusted. A politician who advocated the establishment of a European army did not have a good impression of the United States. How could he remain indifferent to such a threat.

Not to be outdone, he said that if the United States wanted to see the French Communist Party lead the French to welcome the Soviet Red Army after the Soviet Union invaded, it could do so.

At this point, the United States also changed its attitude, saying that the British should persuade the French to take the overall situation into consideration.

"Americans are addicted to using monetary threats. It just so happened that I met someone who didn't do this." Makins said with a wry smile after learning the ins and outs of the matter.

"Yes!" Alan Wilson was confused. He didn't expect to meet such a politician. It seems that things have pros and cons. He was previously happy that NATO did not appear, which gave Britain more room for maneuver.

But now, seeing that France is not interested in NATO, I realize that some things require the right time, place, and people. After that time, it will be much more difficult to deal with it.
