Chapter 1423 Pan-Ocean Regional Cooperation Organization (Third update, please subscribe)
"Repay..."
Looking at the other party, Li Yian didn't say anything - it was based on friendship or something like that bullshit.
In that case, no one would believe it. Even if the three giants of World War II were sitting together, they would not talk about anti-fascism, but the distribution of interests.
Anti-fascism is important, but interests are more important!
You can’t say it’s for Andrew!
Looking at Wells, Li Yian said:
“Mr. Wells, I believe that there are deep reasons why you chose me compared to London. For example, after all, With the change of the Conservative Party and the Labor Party, many policies in London will change"
This is the biggest problem in the Western world - with every change, their policies will change, just like the Conservatives. The party wanted to maintain the colonies, but the Labor Party felt that the colonies were a waste of resources.
Because of this, these imperial border residents know very well that even if they win the support of the Conservative cabinet, once it is the Labor Party's turn to come to power, everything will return to zero. At that time, what awaits them will still be " The Betrayal of Empire.”
So, after searching around, they found this place!
Because in the entire Western world, Li Yian is the only one who does not need to consider regime change. Only he can continue to support them.
Not even the United States can do this.
“Yes, Your Excellency, this is the fundamental reason why we seek your help!”
Wells did not hide this, but also emphasized:
< br>
"And I believe that we can reach consensus in many aspects. After all, our interests are the same!"
"Yes, it is precisely because our interests are the same that..."
Li Yian looked at the guy in front of him and said:
“So, we need to set up a cooperative organization!”
“Cooperative organization?”
Wells looked at the other party in confusion.
“Yes!”
Leaning forward slightly, Li Yian said:
“This security organization can be the Pan-Ocean Cooperation Organization, including us, East Africa, Iraq, and Iran An organization that conducts extensive economic, security and other cooperation with other countries and regions as its core.
< br>Within this framework, the interests of all of us will be protected, even in the face of international pressure, such as Washington, London and other places demanding majority control, with resistance from regional organizations, their demands will change. Of course, this does not conflict with the framework of the Commonwealth.”
This is Li Yi'an's real purpose - a regional cooperation organization, which may or may not be NATO.
But with this organization, we can use it as a basis in the future to expand our influence in these countries - such as further economic control and the establishment of military bases.
Things like this are actually about creating your own "circle of friends".
Faced with this suggestion, Wells weighed it in his mind. He was very aware of the pressure that East Africa might face after independence in the future - such as the minority control of locals by Eurasian immigrants, which would definitely The United States and even London are suppressing them. In this case, they really need a cooperative organization to resist international pressure.
After weighing it for a moment, Wells said:
"I hope that in the future, you can send troops to East Africa!"
Then he emphasized:
"As soon as East Africa gains independence, we will sign with you the The Defense Cooperation Agreement within the framework of the Commonwealth allows you Establish a military base in East Africa to help us suppress the armed rebellion supported by the Soviet Union."
The sudden suggestion made Li Yian stunned. At first, he did not expect that the other party would "kneel down." Oh, no, the awareness of active cooperation is so strong.
Full cooperation so quickly!
Looking at Wells in front of him, Li Yi'an had to admit one thing - there are always many talents among the veteran British politicians, and the imperial thinking possessed by these people is incomparable to ordinary politicians, even in the Colonies...
Same thing!
They know very well what is most important to them. Perhaps Andrew's arrival will allow them to gain independence, but it is unknown whether they will be able to obtain British security guarantees.
In this case, I became their only choice.
It is not easy to be able to weigh the pros and cons in such a short period of time!
The British Empire is really full of talents!
What a pity... These imperial politicians will eventually be eliminated by history, because the imperial thinking of imperial politicians is incorrect.
Just like the guy in front of me, he can imagine such a federation. But this federation, without the support of the United Kingdom, would be a delusion. However, the federation he envisioned is essentially a federation that excludes local people, which naturally goes against the current mainstream values.
In this case, for the long-term benefit, he found himself. Exchange the distribution of federal power for its own support.
And I just took the opportunity to tell him - you have a better choice.
So give them a king and an organization!
If it were some people, I am afraid they would refuse directly for the sake of inexplicable "dignity"!
But this guy knows very well the benefits of this matter to them, whether it is the king or the cooperative organization!
It is really not easy to make such a decision so quickly in such a short period of time!
This guy... is a talent!
"Such an operation is still possible."
Li Yian pondered deeply and walked slowly to the window, still staring at the street downstairs. The streets of London remained unchanged, as if they were in the past. Nothing has changed here in decades.
But now, the wheels are rolling, and the general trend of history will move forward unstoppably.
Turn around and look at Wells, Li Yian said.
“Sometimes I feel that the New World always tries to impose their will on us without being willing to face reality. Now maybe we should make up for this mistake!”
What is the "new world" he calls?
Of course, it was an attempt by the United States and the Soviet Union to destroy colonies in the post-war reconstruction of the world order. Some colonies should be destroyed, but in some places, this kind of rule should continue to be maintained.
For example, in Africa, after getting rid of colonial rule, what awaits the local people? He is a tyrant who takes pleasure in killing, a greedy politician, and a cruel soldier.
It is war, famine, and massacre.
It’s a step backwards!
Just like South Africa, it has directly regressed from a country that can build aircraft, tanks, cannons and even atomic bombs and other sophisticated technological products with an industrialization level that is close to that of Europe and the United States, to a country that is impoverished. In this process, what else did the freed black people gain? Violence, poverty and disease.
And what do those black politicians get?
They looted the country and turned it into mansions in London, New York, Paris and Geneva, into deposits in Swiss banks, and into decorations in the mansions.
From sixth place in the world to penniless, it only took a dozen years!
Did those black people who were singing and dancing realize at that time that when they ushered in the so-called "freedom", they would soon lose their jobs and lose their stable lives?
The former Pearl of Africa restored "Africa's true appearance" in just a few years.
This is Africa!
"Yes, we should correct this mistake as soon as possible."
The answer of the Excellency in front of him made Wells finally breathe a sigh of relief. His goal has been achieved. .
"Then what should we do next?"
Li Yian asked back:
"Is there anything you need our help with?"
"Your Excellency, not yet We need you to come forward. We will handle everything and fight for it. Get the support of the royal family.
After the establishment of the East African Federation is included in the agenda, we will establish a security organization. At that time, I think the East African Federation needs some security support from you. .”
What does it mean to provide certain security protection support?
They just need to send troops to fight those rebels!
Nodding, looking at the other party, Li Yian said:
"Don't worry, as long as necessary, we will ensure that order is restored locally, but how do you plan to convince London?"
"Your Excellency, London does not need us to convince, the Africans will convince them!"
Wells smiled and said:
"Rebellion, nothing, is easier to convince others than rebellion, than chaos."
There is no need to know the specific details. , Later, Li Yian asked Wells about some things in East Africa, and Wells naturally knew everything about it.
Wells stayed for another 10 minutes, but Li Yian already understood most of what he needed to know. At 5:20, Robert came in. He politely led his old classmate out, just as he had welcomed him in.
As soon as they left, Li Yian waved Qiao Renjie over and said to him:
"Immediately contact the Investigation Department through the representative office and ask them to strengthen their work in East Africa!"
Afterwards, he gave a few simple instructions. After Qiao Renjie left, Li Yian grinned.
What will they do next?
It must be to use land, property, tax and other restrictive provisions to ensure that they can control power "fairly". This is the basic operation of white people. For example, in Africa, white people are an absolute minority of the population. However, they account for more than 95% of the total voting population.
And like other white colonists, they will also claim that the local electoral system is basically completely non-discriminatory, because they believe that as the locals gradually improve in terms of education and wealth, there will inevitably be Opportunities to implement majority rule.
In short, now they are definitely out of trouble!
“Since you are avoiding difficulties and benefiting the local people, we will avoid difficulties, accept your suggestions, and contribute to the development of Africa together!”
Standing Li Yian stood there motionless at the window, staring at London outside the window, thinking about something.
“Let Andrew be king.”
I have to say that this idea is very tempting!
After all, sometimes things related to blood do not need words to explain.
"The only question is will Lily agree?"
At this moment he heard the sound of the door opening, and the person who walked in was none other than Elizabeth.
"Lily, the person who just came is from Tanganyika..."
"I know him,"
Elizabeth nodded, and then said:
"He has been in London for the past month, seeming to be planning something. He hopes that their life there can be maintained, so they will always Trying to do everything possible to win all the support should be the reason why he came here."
Even though she has rarely been exposed to such a policy, Elizabeth also knows their purpose of coming here.
"So what do you think?"
Facing his inquiry, Elizabeth thought for a while and then said:
"This is an issue that Downing Street needs to consider. Now all this is for Downing Street to consider. They will never consider my opinion."
They indeed will not consider hers. opinions, just like when they decided to abandon India, they never considered the opinions of George VI.
“Yes, when we consider these issues, they are more based on political and realistic influences. As for others, they are not within the scope of their consideration, but...”
Looking Li Yian said to the woman in front of him:
"Next, he will give you a very exciting reason for you to intervene in this matter."
"What?"
Elizabeth looked at the man in front of her with some confusion, and then said:
"What did you say?"
"Andrew!"
Li Yian said straightforwardly:
"If he had the chance to become king, would you refuse?"
