In order to maintain his personal relationship with McCarthy, Alan Wilson had to start with alcohol.
But the consequences are inevitable. As the Republican Party's double bonus in the past two years, McCarthy has become more and more arrogant under the influence of alcohol, and he has never strayed from the current president of the United States, Truman.
As for the current war on the peninsula, McCarthy believed that the current bad situation originated from the Truman government's weakness in aiding Chang Gong. If they had readily taken aid at that time, the situation in the Far East would not have evolved into what it is today.
Alan Wilson, who was holding a wine glass, stared directly at McCarthy and said with reservation, "Joseph, we can't judge the consequences of something happening."
The opposition party was tough when it came to speaking, and Alan Wilson never expected that McCarthy would regret such a challenging job? This is simply crazy.
Truman had already allocated 20 billion in military expenditures to fight the Korean War. Would he exchange it for aid to the country under Chang Gong's command?
The assistance plan focuses on two types: large-scale material assistance and limited material assistance. However, according to calculations, in order to carry out large-scale material assistance, in terms of military, in order to maintain the current front line, at least thirty divisions must be equipped and trained for the Kuomintang army. The air force has 2,000 aircraft, and if it wants to launch a counterattack, it will have to double its size.
Economically, US$2 billion must be invested first to stabilize the currency system, and then at least US$100 million must be invested in economic assistance every month. It seems that it is not as good as the more than 20 billion allocated by Truman now, but the uses of the two are also different.
Although the aid in 1948 does not seem to be as large as Truman's war appropriation for the Korean War. But Truman's war appropriation was based on the premise that hundreds of thousands of US troops were fighting on the front line.
The original plan to assist the Artillery Party was to expect the Artillery Party to protect itself, and it was impossible for the US military to send troops.
When Truman and Dewey were running for office, the situation had reached a point where economic assistance could not reverse the situation. If we wanted to save Chang Gong's life, the U.S. military would have to be dispatched. If the U.S. military is dispatched, McCarthy will find that the $20 billion that Truman now allocates for the Korean War is just a small sum.
Stopping support for the Gun Party is a way to cut losses, and President Truman was absolutely wise in this matter. If we continue to provide assistance, it will not be enough for Chang Gong's brother-in-law, who is the Minister of Finance, to make a golden reform.
Since the US military cannot be involved, assistance is ineffective. But what if the US military intervenes? The Soviet Union will probably laugh out loud. If nothing else, watching the United States fall into a huge quagmire, it will pour all the accumulation of the United States in the world war into it. This is not what the Greek Civil War and the current Korean War can do.
"Joseph, the European direction is still more important than any other direction. You should agree on this!" Alan Wilson looked at McCarthy and said, "Not to mention the pro-Soviet Democratic Army in Greece still exists in northern Greece, and the United States A lot has been invested in this, right? Especially close to the borders of Yugoslavia and Albania, the Greek government is at a loss. If that doesn't work, the United States should consider the British proposal at the United Nations and immediately restore the previous military demarcation line with the Chinese Disengage and focus on the Greek peninsula and Germany."
"Alan, you don't understand. Today's war on the peninsula is the price of Truman's wrong decision." McCarthy will not change his original intention. McCarthyism is his personality, how can he forget it.
"I'm just saying that we can't go back to the past." Alan Wilson figured out that McCarthy was based on McCarthyism. If he didn't criticize Truman, he wouldn't have his position in the Republican Party today, so he said no more.
The significance of the reference to Europe through personal connections lies in the fact that the Greek Civil War has continued to this day. Alan Wilson had to be a little worried. At first, he felt that the Soviet Union had been hit hard. In order to give Britain room to operate, the skilled man boldly let Mikhailovich go.
Today, there is a butterfly effect. Yugoslavia is Greece’s main supporter.
Because of this incident, Tito adopted a harmonious attitude towards Moscow, and with Moscow's tacit approval, he always supported the Greek Communist Party. Even the Korean War broke out, and the Greek Civil War was still not over.
Although the Turkish and Greek troops supported by the United States have the upper hand and blockaded the democratic forces in the northern mountains, Greece is still in a civil war. The reason why the situation in Greece is controllable is that Greece has a small population of only a few million, and the United States has the ability to By suppressing the war at a low intensity, the tens of thousands of guerrillas of the Democratic Army will have reached their limit.
Only when the Cold War really began to enter the rhythm of the Cold War did Alan Wilson realize that it seemed that the free world was indeed lagging behind.
The Moscow Kremlin, Stalin's own office, has rarely started discussing European issues in the past year. The move by the United States, Britain and France to establish a coalition government drew the Kremlin's attention back to the Far East.
"The United Kingdom and France believed that they did not have the ability to confront the Soviet Union. We can also know that London and Paris did not want to confront them. However, they had to succumb to the ideas of the United States and agreed to the establishment of a coalition government."
Malenkov, Vice Chairman of the Soviet Council of Ministers, expressed his opinion, "We tried to stop it, but today it can be considered that Britain and France have compromised the status of the United States in Europe, and in order to fight against the Soviets, they have to rely on the wings of the United States."
"So Comrade Malenkov, what do you think of the current situation?" Stalin nodded and asked.
"We must find a way to drive away the three-nation garrison in West Berlin, because the division of Germany has become a foregone conclusion. All the attempts we have made cannot prevent the illegal merger of the three countries, and we can only take a step back to protect the system of the Soviet-occupied area." Malenkov was determined. "Now that the United States is fighting in the Far East, it is possible that it will give in on this issue. Even if it does not give in, the increased costs will be too much for the United States to bear."
"I also agree to take a tough approach and block Berlin and prohibit Berlin from entering any materials from the hostile occupied areas." Molotov said, "But we must have a certain degree of understanding of West Berlin. Bailey Comrade Asia needs to be more careful. If a total blockade is entered, how many days can West Berlin last? We must get the relevant information immediately."
Beria was silent for a moment and said, "Comrades, why can't we do it at the same time? You must know that the US military is still fighting in the Far East, and Hokkaido's status has been uncertain after the war. Judging from the US air power in Europe, it may not It is so easy to compromise. If we also take action in the Far East at the same time, Washington will have to deal with problems at the same time. With some US troops being immobilized, we should at least get victory in one direction, right?"
How far is Japan from Germany? In fact, if you think about it carefully, it's not that far away. It's just a distance from the Soviet Union.
A country the size of the Soviet Union was a geographical bastard, as it would be for any country. If the United States were to stir up trouble at both ends of the earth at the same time, it would expend a lot of energy.
But for the Soviet Union, it was just a matter of the western border and the eastern border. Beria's meaning is simple, since the United States, Britain and France have ignored the Soviet Union's opinions and insist on causing the division of Germany. So in the Far East, the Soviet Union still occupies Hokkaido.
The Soviet Union could completely support a pro-Soviet government to rule Hokkaido, or go a step further and directly incorporate Hokkaido into the Soviet Union as a union republic, or do neither of these and become part of the Soviet Union as a state.
"Comrade Beria's suggestion is very constructive!" After a long time, Stalin said slowly, "Hokkaido's population does not seem to be large. If it becomes part of the motherland of the Soviet Union, it is not impossible. And we must say that this It was a response to the illegal division of Germany by the United States, Britain and France. This is what I thought. I would first clarify the situation in West Berlin, and at the same time send comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make a final effort. After the United States, Britain and France refused, I proposed to Berlin and Hokkaido at the same time. Countermeasures.”
Stalin's meaning was very simple. The blockade of Berlin and the annexation of Hokkaido could be done together. It would be best if both were successful. Even if one failed in the end, it could be considered a tie.
The Soviet Union never knew what reciprocity meant, now that efforts to maintain superficial peace had failed. Moreover, the other party took the initiative to stir up trouble, so the Soviet Union had no choice but to ask me to take them all. Let’s see what countermeasures the US military at war can take?
The Greek Civil War is not over yet, and Stalin can even add fuel to the fire and openly support the Greek Communist Party.
For Alan Wilson, it was about to be the most important day in his life. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs received an unusual news from the diplomat Aiful in Berlin. That is, the Allied staff in Berlin were currently out. Documents must be submitted and inspected by the Soviet military!
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs finally discussed that the Soviet Union's actions were not worth making a fuss about.
Alan Wilson, who was preparing for the wedding at home, knew this was a precursor to the Soviet Union's preparations to blockade Berlin. Of course, he still doesn't know that not only will Berlin be blocked, but the big shots in Moscow are already ready to annex Hokkaido.
"What's wrong with you?" Pamela Mountbatten looked at the man and suddenly said with a smile, "Are you unable to sleep and a little nervous about tomorrow's wedding?"
"My dear, anyone would be nervous." Alan Wilson reached out and touched Pamela Mountbatten's cheek, "There will be a lot of guests tomorrow. I hope I can stay awake tomorrow."
"Actually, I'm also nervous. My head is feeling dizzy now." Upon hearing this, Pamela Mountbatten leaned her head on Alan Wilson's shoulder and looked at the hanging clock. "It's tomorrow after midnight." It will definitely be an unforgettable day.”
