Chapter 334 Treaty of Friendship
I don’t want to leave yet! In fact, Patel's actions were not unexpected. From the last confrontation, Alan Wilson had already grasped the opponent's pulse. This person was fierce and timid, always scheming, and did great things without sacrificing his own life. , seeing small profits and forgetting life...
In fact, are the requirements of the Governor's Palace excessive? This is the most conscientious decision made by the Governor-General's Office in more than a hundred years. It is just to let India ensure the security of the three northern countries and avoid encroaching on it step by step.
It was solemnly stated in the treaty, especially one of the articles that local residents were not allowed to be incited to oppose the monarch, and local residents were not allowed to immigrate to the area.
When Nehru was in the process of cleaning up the princely state, the monarch's decision to join Pakistan depended on public opinion, and the decision of public opinion to join Pakistan depended on the monarch's behavior. Alan Wilson, who learned from history, naturally could not leave any room for maneuver.
Of course, Alan Wilson still won't care about the Kashmir issue. He can't openly go against Nehru on this matter. After all, his daughter and grandson will rule this place for how long. It's been ten years. It's not a good thing to offend someone too harshly.
Since Patel promised not to cause trouble on this matter, Alan Wilson could not go too far and just said, "Since the respected Mr. , We are willing to communicate with the country. In fact, if there is any conflict between us, we can live in harmony."
When Patel heard that London wanted to abrogate the Treaty of Sargauli, his already dark face turned even darker. In the war between Britain and Nepal, Nepal was defeated and signed the Treaty of Sargauli. Therefore, the Kingdom of Nepal lost one-third of its territory. The land area is about 73,000 square kilometers.
If the British are really determined to disgust India, they can declare this treaty invalid.
It is true that Patel does not believe that today's India will still cede territory to Nepal, but if the British are determined to do so, India will face endless troubles with Nepal even if it becomes independent.
"So, the Congress Party had better cooperate with us in how we do things." Alan Wilson, who has fully taken control of the situation, "There are still many places that can be studied, including the relationship between the princely states and neighboring countries, overseas Indians Have the Congress Party considered the rights and interests of Indians overseas? If all Indians overseas are expelled from the colonies and returned to India? Do you have to bear this cost? They are not British. If you agree, these overseas Indians You have to pay all the expenses for the Indians to come back. If you don’t agree, you will break the hearts of these Indians.”
"We have nothing to lose. In the eyes of local people, Indians themselves are part of the colonizers!"
"Actually, Mr. Gandhi has always believed that we should live in harmony with neighboring countries." Patel could not bear the responsibility himself, so he came up with the old method of letting Gandhi bear this responsibility.
When things go wrong, Gandhi takes the blame. This is an old routine. Alan Wilson nodded and said he had no objection to this. He is a saint, why should he, an ordinary person, question him?
"I look forward to a successful conclusion to this peaceful event." Now that a consensus has been reached, Alan Wilson took the initiative to shake hands with Patel and said that it is still necessary for the Congress Party to participate in this event. .
The talks that had been stalled finally got back on track thanks to the efforts of the British Empire. It was not easy, and Alan Wilson even traveled to Africa.
He also came into contact with the Ustasha and Chetniks, who according to the standards of later generations, can be called terrorist and organizational forces.
Thinking about it makes people's heads tingle. It's okay to save these two groups of people. Once a deep connection is established, it is a good thing or a bad thing. It is uncertain. After all, these people are the remnants of World War II who have fought for the rest of their lives.
Pulling out for frontal combat may not be comparable to the regular army of a powerful country, but what if it can do the same thing as organizations such as the Martyrs Brigade and Lashkar-e-Taiba?
The threat is no worse than the jihadists from the Peace Cult.
Even worse. Even if they take a step back and transform into some kind of killer organization, it will still be frightening.
If there was a chance, he still wanted to have an in-depth talk with Mikhailovich to clarify their relationship as friends.
He believed that there was still room for discussion. After all, Northern Rhodesia was surrounded by landlocked countries and was surrounded by black countries. It also needed the support of major powers to survive.
First of all, the two sides are not enemies, and there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future. There is still a bit of love between them.
Returning to the Governor's Mansion to go for a walk with Pamela, Edwina Ashley gave the two people a meaningful look. It was obvious that she already knew the fact that the two had a substantial relationship.
Seeing her daughter shy and timid during a private conversation, Edwina Ashley knew that everything was irreversible. I can only tell my daughter some physiological knowledge, don't kill someone at such a young age.
Pamela Mountbatten was still in a period of worrying about gains and losses, and longed for comfort.
Although Pamela adored her mother, Alan Wilson was the coordinate of her life. For Pamela, Alan Wilson is now like a safe haven, the only person who can give her warmth.
Although they were separated for only a day, her sense of loss was even stronger. After all, Alan Wilson already has his own career and goals to strive for, and the temporary setbacks have made him set his lion-like ambitions.
But Pamela Mountbatten didn't know what to do. She could only bury her head in Alan Wilson's arms and feel the man's heartbeat. It seemed that this could calm her heart, which was worried about gains and losses.
Reaching out and patting Pamela Mountbatten's back, Alan Wilson whispered, "Dear Pamela, we will have a long time together in the future. By the way, come with me and show you something. "
This suggestion presented Pamela with new and exciting hopes, and by contrast the grief faded, replaced by dreams of the future. After confirming Alan Wilson's sincerity, Pamela Mountbatten expressed her willingness to follow the man.
"It's not that serious. It's just like elopement." Alan Wilson took the girl's hand and came to the apartment where he lived. The two iron boxes that had always been very conspicuous were still there, but today he Get ready to open it.
In this regard, Alan Wilson's rank is relatively low, and his respected father-in-law, Mr. Mountbatten, is the one with a higher rank.
If possible, he really wanted to ask the respected Governor how he got a young lady with an inheritance of five million pounds.
The termination of the negotiations did not disturb Governor Mountbatten's good mood. As the commissioner, Sir Barron accompanied Governor Mountbatten to visit various places and arranged various entertainment activities for the Governor and his party, such as horse riding, elephant riding, polo, etc. Hunting and more.
The day's itinerary is arranged like this: at 8:30 in the morning, the governor has breakfast with the guests, at 9:30, he reviews the troops, and at 10:30, he visits the hospital; at 1:30 in the afternoon, he has lunch with citizen representatives, at 3:00 polo match, and at 6:00 for a walk. Dinner and dance at 8:30 p.m.
During this period, Mountbatten, who was busy during this period, also agreed to the representative of King Rana VIII in his spare time to go to the north to hunt tigers.
In the warehouse next to the apartment, Pamela Mountbatten covered her mouth and saw mountains of fur. Tiger skins took up a large part of the space. It was the first time she had seen such a scene.
Then entering the apartment, two iron boxes that were almost never opened were opened by Alan Wilson in front of Pamela. One of the boxes was completely filled. In the other box, there was a gift from the Sikkim royal family. golden buddha.
But it was not as heavy as expected. Unlike the many iron boxes that Pamela Mountbatten had seen before, those iron boxes could not be seen because the gold had been dissolved.
In the iron box in front of him, the gold jewelry remained the same, taking up a lot of space. It was also not all gold. There were also some less valuable items, such as pearls, agate, etc. He found it troublesome to put them elsewhere. They are all placed in iron boxes.
"Did you get this all when you were the Assistant Commissioner?" Pamela Mountbatten asked in shock, covering her mouth.
"Well, they are all accepted during the year. The golden Buddha was given by the royal family of Sikkim, so you understand why I try my best to ensure the safety of Sikkim, Bhutan and Nepal." Alan Wilson happily admitted , of course did not forget to sensationalize, "But I didn't spend any of this money. The reason why I accepted it is that I want you to live a good life in the future. I am a man, I can eat and sleep, but I can't let me His wife suffered."
"You are the daughter of a nobleman and your family is very well off. I was afraid that your parents would despise me, so I tried my best to collect the money."
"You think too much, no." Pamela Mountbatten said with a look of love on her face. Her eyes were already dazzled by these gold jewelry. This was not the first time she faced this man's money-splitting attack. But this time it fell.
Listening to Alan Wilson's affectionate but extremely shameless argument that he only accepted bribes to give her a good life, Pamela Mountbatten didn't feel anything was wrong at all, but was filled with happiness.
After this day, Alan Wilson's assets were successfully wiped out. Although these personal belongings were still in his apartment for the time being, they had become the bride price for the Governor's daughter.
After staying in New Delhi for a long time, the heat is no longer an unbearable factor for Alan Wilson.
After getting rid of the voice of the Congress Party, there were actually no obstacles in the meeting. The previous obstacles were just the conservatives represented by the Congress Party’s Patel. After getting rid of Patel, the next dialogue was just a formality.
In a joyous atmosphere, the five-nation friendship treaty between British India and Bhutan, Sikkim, Nepal, and Myanmar was signed. India guaranteed not to interfere in any internal affairs of Bhutan, Sikkim, and Nepal, and that it would never annex or annex Encroaching on the territory of the three countries, the part involving Myanmar is to confirm the border issue.
