British Civil Servant

Chapter 117: Rhodesia

Just kidding, the British Empire has so many colonies around the world, does it still lack space to accommodate these more than 200,000 Yugoslavs? For a colonial empire like the United Kingdom, this matter is not difficult at all, just where to put it?

Both Rhodesia and British Malaya seem to have certain advantages, but the advantages are in different places.

Rhodesia is Zimbabwe with billionaires per capita in later generations. As white people have been operating in Southern Rhodesia for a long time, white natives have gradually taken the lead. They regard Southern Rhodesia as their motherland instead of the United Kingdom, and urgently demand more autonomy. Independence, of course, is still many years away from Rhodesia's true independence.

If you put the Yugoslavs in Rhodesia, maybe you can check and balance the local white people who want to be independent.

As for British Malaya, it was Edward Bridges' choice of a reserve development colony for British India. It can be said that it is already a colony that the British Empire will focus on.

As Alexander Cadogan said, British Malaya must strengthen the power of colonial rule.

"Alan, you know the Far East very well, don't stop talking just because you think you are not qualified. We can also listen to the opinions of young people." Edward Bridges nodded at Alan Wilson.

"The two main ethnic groups in British Malaya are very close in terms of population ratio, and the Malay population is of course a little more. I personally think that there is no need to let the Yugoslavs go, otherwise there may be unexpected changes. Alan Wilson nodded politely before he spoke eloquently, "We can rely on the British army for the military strength of British Malaya. I believe that there will be no accident in the short term, but Rhodesia is different. The local white people The proportion of blacks and blacks is very different, and some local whites should be strengthened."

Among the colonies of the British Empire, British Africa was relatively late to independence. This is not because the United Kingdom and France are fighting in Africa, but the level of Africans is just that. It is also extremely difficult to break free from the colonial power that is not strong in the local area.

At present, in Black Africa, there are only two places where white people and native white people have a certain scale, namely South Africa and Rhodesia, which is later Zimbabwe.

South Africa and Zimbabwe have formed an alliance since then to jointly maintain the interests of white Africans.

In the short term, there will be no problems in these two places. Of course, the premise is to make it clear to the local white leaders that if they really break free from the rule of the British Empire, they will have to face blacks whose population is more than ten times their own in the future.

As for British Malaya, there is no shortage of population. The Dutch East Indies conducted a census in 1930. The population of the Dutch East Indies was 60 million. Now 15 years later, the population has exceeded 7500. million.

All of these can complement the population of British Malaya. As for the other major ethnic group, the Chinese, Alan Wilson did not think that in 1945 he would have to worry about not enough Chinese. With a little trick, the Chinese population in British Malaya is not a problem at all.

"Well, then send them to Rhodesia. You can find a chance to talk to Mikhailovich." Edward Bridges nodded, agreeing to this matter. As for his cabinet secretary, Naturally, it was back to London with the Prime Minister.

Post-war reconstruction, international conferences, restoration of stability in the British-occupied areas, there are still quite a few things to do. With the British and American delegations leaving from Potsdam, Alan Wilson also returned to Greater Berlin.

Now he finally has time to think about how to increase the ties between the German-British territories and British India.

After the Potsdam Conference, at least on the surface, the interests of the post-war period have been divided, and the world has been informed through the communique that the Third World War seems to be far away from many people.

The Potsdam Conference was over. Unexpectedly, the Yugoslav refugees who were dumped to the Americans, turned around and returned to the British Empire. There is no way. Who made the British Empire and the United States have a debt relationship? The United Kingdom can't afford it, and it can't follow the Soviet Union's neck and break its debt.

The point is that the British Empire dared to do this after the First World War because the United States did not yet have the ability to collect debts by armed force. Now it is completely different. Ordinary citizens do not know, but the British government knows that the national strength of the United States is already higher than that of the United Kingdom.

Returning to his residence in Berlin, Mia, the maid he had looked for before, had kept the apartment spotless. Alan Wilson was very grateful. For these Germans who were similar to those after the fall of the country, he was sympathetic on a personal level, but it was definitely different. Love the country of Germany.

There are two things in front of him, one is the issue of the refugees from Yugoslavia, and the other is long overdue. Going to the British-occupied area to pan for gold, and reading the information sent by telegram, Alan Wilson is full of confidence. . UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

After these two things are done, plus the Brussels meeting, he can return to the British India he longs for, and the Indians will definitely find that the sky is higher and bluer.

"Mr. Allen, where have you been recently?" Mia, who was arranging the room, asked Alan Wilson, who was looking at the documents, "Right now, the whole of Berlin is very depressed. There are still many things about the occupation army."

"Berlin's depression is only temporary, and the competition around Berlin will begin soon." Alan Wilson smiled back and comforted, "This kind of competition is good for you citizens of Berlin. Berlin is now a comparison between the two sides. The front line of the Soviet Union will send all the best things here, and in the Three Kingdoms occupation area to the west, you are even luckier. The Soviet Union was devastated by you Germans, and there is no strong financial and material resources. But the United States have!"

"Yes, many people say that America is rich." Mia didn't speak much, and seemed to be keeping the care of a servant.

"Those Americans!" Alan Wilson didn't want to hear other people compliment the Americans. He was now dealing with refugees thrown over by the Americans. "There is no shortage of technology and talent in Europe, but money. Don't have a good impression of those hillbillies in the United States. It's better, in fact, as long as you grit your teeth and get through these two years, Europe doesn't need to ask the United States for anything."

In the evening Alan Wilson sent a telegram to Bavaria and asked Mikhailovich to come to Berlin to talk. The Potsdam Conference is over, and he doesn't have to run around to dig holes for the Americans, not to mention that the US dumped refugees to the British Empire.

At this point, Alan Wilson's job is to put these refugees in Rhodesia and inform Mikhailovich that it doesn't matter whether the other party agrees or not.
