Chapter 565 Sarawak Development Bank

There is not a day in this world where we do not see nameless men and women doing great things, speaking heroic words, and enduring noble sufferings.

Alan Wilson felt like this, even though to some in the world he was nothing more than an official representing the interests of his colonial power.

But for this kind of thing, it’s not like he can’t make everyone love him. The way you look at the issue depends on your stance. As we all know, France is a great country of literature. If you take out a French historical book, depending on the year it was written, it is likely to say, "Louis XI is the monarch of France. Edward IV is the illegitimate self-king of England. We The story begins here..."

In Alan Wilson's mind, the United States and the Soviet Union, which are currently shaping their own glorious future in front of the whole world, are nothing more than conjoined twins sharing the same brain. Half of this brain is an idiot and half is evil. Who makes him? An Englishman.

Alan Wilson has already planned a route back to Malaya. First, he will transfer to Paris. Visiting Greta Garbo, who came to host Woodpecker Pictures, and her son.

Greta Garbo looked straight at the uninvited guest who came to her door. She was in her twenties and had the manners of a smooth and smooth professional diplomat. He was sitting behind a large mahogany desk.

"Dear Madam, what are you looking at? We are not strangers to each other, are we?" Alan Weir said with a bright smile. This smile seemed to carry the demeanor of a British Empire gentleman in every gesture.

At this time, something heavy fell to the ground, making a dull sound on the expensive beige carpet. This ominous sound was followed by the sound of pens colliding and the pages of the note pad scattering. Hustle.

The briefcase was in a very disappointing condition at this time. Greta Garbo glanced at the man and saw that he was bending down, collecting things that had obviously fallen out of his briefcase. Those things were in a mess. Scattered all over the floor.

It's not because of nervousness. She stared at him calmly for a moment, watching as Alan Wilson stuffed the papers, pens, and pads back into his briefcase.

"I think, even from an objective point of view, you should help, right? It's like being a stranger." Alan Wilson shook his head and sighed, "I came here specifically to see you, Greta."

"You know, this is what I am!" Faced with this greeting, her abdominal muscles began to contract, and her cheeks began to catch fire, but she said indifferently, "You can't stay too long."

"Thank you for thinking about me so much." Alan Wilson's burning eyes finally lightened up a little. It was too difficult to get some greetings from the Queen of Silent Movies, even a little bit.

Hearing the change in Greta Garbo’s tone,

Only Alan Wilson can feel that his style is still the same. His heart couldn't help but get hot. Considering Greta Garbo's age, the other party definitely needed him very much.

If all women treated him like Greta Garbo, it would easily make Ellen Wilson feel less confident.

As long as he thought about it deeply, he even felt that it would be such a tragic thing that a group of rich women would be abandoned by him in the future.

In fact, the days at the transit station in Paris can be less boring. In the dark night, a voice with a Nordic flavor came, "You are just a sanctimonious and shameless bastard, not a gentleman at all."

"I can be a gentleman in front of everyone, but not in front of you." Then Alan Wilson turned on the desk lamp, lit a cigarette, took a puff and handed it directly to the silent film queen beside him, "It seems that in the next year, this family will The company will be run by you for the time being. Greta, tell me what you are interested in, and I can help. I dare not say that I can solve all the problems, but I am absolutely willing to do it for you."

Greta Garbo blew out a smoke ring and shook her head, "I don't have financial problems, so it's hard to say what I'm interested in. I'm not willing to devote myself to a busy job. Raising my children to grow up is what I want to do now. Maybe something went wrong." I don’t have much pursuit other than acting, and by the way, it’s time for me to shoot that movie.”

"Three Hundred Spartans?" Alan Wilson nodded and asked in concern, "Don't be too tired, pay attention to the balance between work and rest."

In response to him, he rolled his eyes and put out the cigarette butt. Greta Garbo slightly nodded, "I don't want you to help me run any industry, but I have very high requirements for other aspects. You know this."

"I understand!" Alan Wilson approached the Queen of Silent Movies. It was all for the British Empire, and blood and sweat were nothing.

Compared to Alan Wilson who always focuses on unimportant things every day, the vast majority of people in the world are focused on the war on the Korean Peninsula. Although the United Kingdom has avoided dispatching ground troops, the United States still mobilized coalition forces from more than a dozen countries with a single call. The prestige of the new world hegemon and beacon of mankind is evident.

Although the UK has already communicated with Australia and Canada, its former father, the UK, is now unable to deal with its rebellious son, let alone other countries. At the call of the United States, Canada and Australia also expressed their willingness to send ground troops to participate in the war.

Canada is second only to the United States in the number of troops it has sent. It has sent a 25th Infantry Brigade, the Canadian Princess Patrick Light Brigade, known as the "Canadian Army Special Forces", with a total of more than 7,700 people.

Turkey, which had already offended the Soviet Union and clung to the thigh of the United States, sent an infantry brigade of about 5,000 people to participate in the battle.

Australia sent two infantry battalions, and the remaining countries sent troops on a smaller scale. The French army dispatched a destroyer and a French battalion of more than 1,000 people to North Korea to participate in the war. Because the French battalion was not large in number, it did not fight independently. It was attached to the command of the US military and cooperated with the US military in combat.

Before leaving France, Alan Wilson happened to read the news in the newspaper. At the same time, he saw a demonstration by the French Communist Party to protest against the French government's participation in the Korean War.

He remembered that this small French army was quite powerful in combat, and it could be considered as a side by side with the US military in this coalition. It was this French army that fought alongside the US military in the Battle of Topying-ri.

Compared with the British army who were always taken care of by the US military and retreated without a fight during the war, and were always tricked. The French army has been treated well in the areas where it has been cheated. It has participated in many wars and demonstrated the combat effectiveness of Europe's veteran army powers.

Of course, this is just to deal with agricultural countries. If this was done in Europe, the Soviet Red Army would be happy to mobilize heavy artillery and blast these little bastards into the sky.

By the time Alan Wilson returned to Malaya, the U.S.-South Korean coalition forces had completely reduced the Pusan ​​defense circle. The U.S. military, which had already established a firm foothold, finally had a chance to take a breather and brought out the special skills of the world's most powerful country, the army, navy and air force. An outpouring of mobilized industrial power.

On the one hand, the 130mm rockets invested have a high destruction rate on tanks. The greater threat is the use of napalm bombs. A napalm bomb loaded with 110 gallons of napalm has a burning time of 20 seconds. But it was enough to turn an area of ​​fifty square meters into a sea of ​​flames. The guide wheels of the T-34 tank are made of rubber, and the ammunition and fuel carried by the tank itself make it more than ten times more damaged by napalm than by rockets.

The U.S. Air Force also conducted large-scale strategic bombing of North Korea's rear. From Pyongyang to Wonsan, Hungnam and other industrial cities, all suffered devastating damage. Under this situation, North Korea's military production was basically paralyzed.

Every trench along the Nakdong River defense line was densely packed with defensive soldiers. Thirteen divisions of the U.S.-South Korean coalition forces made it impossible for the enemy, which had always been overwhelming, to take another step forward.

From the outbreak of the war at the end of June, there was actually only two months of war to spare, and the United States was able to achieve this step. This shows the current national strength of the United States.

To put it bluntly, just like Britain in World War I, if Germany did not surrender in the end, it would really be beaten to death by Britain. In the last year of the war, the British army on the Western Front was equipped with There are more than 3,000 tanks, which means that the British army is average in terms of army achievements. Instead, it is the French army equipped with 3,000 tanks. Germany can even consider the fall of Berlin.

Returning to Europe had no impact on Alan Wilson. The only change was that the rise in steel stocks caused by the war had steadily increased the value of his stocks.

This is just the beginning. After all, the current war is still controllable, not out of control as London fears. When the war is not limited to North and South Korea, Alan Wilson's stocks will be more valuable, and they can be sold by then.

As soon as they arrived in Kuala Lumpur, public opinion had already changed. Newspapers in British Malaya began to publish a large number of content on the agricultural and animal husbandry revolution, including the introduction of high-quality seeds, breeding pigs, and breeding cattle at a high cost.

The United Kingdom, South Africa, the United States, New Zealand, all the powerful agricultural and animal husbandry countries are on the list. From feed conversion to growing days, they are the crystallization of modern civilization. Even in agriculture, strong countries and weak countries are completely different.

Alan Wilson pretended to be the Minister of Agriculture, and Pamela Mountbatten established a bank in London. It would not be impossible to establish a bank in the name of the Mountbatten family. But it would be too obvious if the bank also had rights to issue Asian pounds.

Although the United Kingdom and even Europe and the United States as a whole do not reject the use of power to serve capital, it still needs to be concealed.

Finally, this new bank called Sarawak Development Bank officially appeared in London and will soon start operations in Sarawak. East Malaysia Commissioner Edel assured Alan Wilson, who has just returned, that he will handle this bank flexibly. The problem.
