British Civil Servant

Chapter 63: 1 maid

"It seems that we are warming up for an important meeting." Eiffel said mysteriously, "A very important meeting."

Very important meeting? Alan Wilson suddenly remembered, Potsdam Conference? Earlier?

Of course he knew where Potsdam was, the southwestern suburbs of Greater Berlin. It was a very safe location. It was not far from Greater Berlin. The four-nation troops stationed in Greater Berlin could make any possible dangerous factors disappear.

The Potsdam Conference, of course, discussed a lot of issues, but the main issues are as follows. Who decides the post-war European order and how to divide the forces? Before the war, the Soviet Union and Germany divided Poland together. Although Germany was defeated, the Soviet Union did not. .

It is almost impossible to count on the Soviet Union to give up the occupied eastern Poland. It is said that the problem between Poland and the Soviet Union is very complicated. During the imperial Russia period, Poland was part of the Russian Empire. Problems such as the Soviet-Polish war and Poland's torture and killing of prisoners of war are not easy to solve.

The problem was that one of the parties to the Soviet-Polish war was Stalin himself, the current leader of the Soviet Union. The failure of the Soviet-Polish war caused a great uproar within the Soviet Union, and caused great embarrassment to Stalin. In addition, the characters involved are Trotsky, the father of the Soviet Red Army, and Tukhachevsky, who has the title of Red Napoleon.

Serious disagreements and mutual struggles between Stalin and Trotsky over operational plans and deployments. Trotsky relied heavily on the western front in the war against Poland, while Stalin focused on the southwestern front: after the defeat, Trotsky believed that in the Soviet-Polish War, Stalin's southwestern front was slow to send reinforcements to the main battlefield—the western front was a defeat for the Red Army a major reason.

Poland was the place where Stalin was forcibly held by Trotsky, so the Soviet Union would never spit out the eastern territories occupied by the Soviet Union, so in the end, the eastern territories of Germany were occupied by Poland as compensation.

With just a moment's thought, Alan Wilson knew that the conference that determined the post-war European order would certainly last a long time. In fact it is.

Alan Wilson walked over to the window and asked indistinctly, holding the edge of the window with one hand, "It looks like we are warming up for the upcoming summit?"

"London's vague remarks are probably like this." Eiffel was busy with his own affairs and said unintentionally, "There will be an election in July, maybe Prime Minister Churchill wants to increase some confidence."

"This makes sense." Alan Wilson decisively accepted this explanation. Isn't this the very famous defeat of Churchill? Halfway through the Potsdam Conference, he returned to London in a daze, and a new Prime Minister came to continue to participate in the conference.

In the position of civil servants, some politicians were connoted, and Alan Wilson did not think there was any problem. Churchill may not have considered this issue in history, but this time and space suddenly considered this issue, which is quite normal. How could politicians not consider elections?

But he also had some worries in his heart. He had just finished laying mines. What if it exploded just in time for the Potsdam Conference? Alan Wilson, who was leaning against the edge of the window, had a gloomy expression on his face. Things were too complicated on the European side. He actually missed the happy life in British India now.

Compared with the complicated situation on the European side, the political environment in British India was more relaxed. How to distribute and how to deal with it, the British Indian government still has an absolutely powerful position. Taking a step back, it is easy to make money and make money without worrying about being discovered by others. The prosperity of the British Empire deserves to be built on the colonies.

The matter has come to this, Alan Wilson can't do nothing because he is worried, and quickly joined the preparations, "I don't know who will preside over the military parade we hold independently?"

"It should be Marshal Montgomery. The marshal has been too busy recently, and he has been receiving awards and celebrations from various countries. I heard that the Soviet Union seems to have prepared the Medal of Victory and is ready to honor Marshal Montgomery." Eiffel took out a piece The paper was handed to Alan Wilson and said, "This is a notice from the Soviets."

"That's something to celebrate, and the marshal deserves to be treated like this by all parties." Alan Wilson smiled, not to mention whether Montgomery himself was a first-class player, but Montgomery was definitely outstanding at the military level.

After Germany surrendered, the huge group of soldiers and refugees became the main problem for the occupying forces. These people had to be burdened by the British army to eat. Hunger and disease became an urgent problem for Montgomery. In order to restore order as soon as possible, he formulated a management plan and implemented it in a timely manner.

In response to the random occupation or looting of German houses by British officers and soldiers, Montgomery was determined to stop this trend.

Require all the subordinate troops to move out of the urban area, strictly control personnel going out, and are not allowed to enter or leave hotels, restaurants, etc.; and strictly prohibit individual or collective robbery. Those who violate this order, regardless of their rank, will be tried by military courts.

Montgomery's headquarters also had a staff group composed of German prisoners of war. UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com assisted the British occupying forces in managing German prisoners of war. In terms of fair treatment of prisoners, the British attitude far surpassed that of the Soviet Union and the United States.

Because Montgomery is a pure soldier, but unlike a war madman like Patton, he doesn't have much prejudice against the Soviet Union on the surface, and has a good relationship with the Soviet military generals, so it is appropriate to preside over this military parade.

After meeting and greeting Eiffel, Alan Wilson returned to his temporary residence in Berlin.

After leaving Berlin for a period of time, Alan Wilson saw that the order in Berlin was restored well, and there were fewer ruins.

Returning to the apartment where he was staying with a cigarette in his mouth, Alan Wilson tidied up the house and muttered, "I'm looking for a servant, at least I have to live here for a while."

Although he can't wait to return to British India immediately, he must also solve the immediate problem.

Alan Wilson's return to Berlin was not a secret operation, and naturally everyone who should know knew.

"Let's see if we can hire a servant tomorrow!" Alan Wilson complained in front of his colleagues who came to be a guest at night, "I went to Vienna and almost forgot what happened here."

"There is no shortage of labor in Berlin now. We have hired servants wherever we live, so choose whatever you want." Several colleagues laughed, showing a look that everyone understood.

"You? Are you looking for a servant to take care of your daily life, or to take care of you?" Alan Wilson winked and said, "Then I will go out tomorrow to see how the city of Berlin is recovering. You have to follow me, I am here. But I’m not familiar with you, don’t get lost and let the Soviet soldiers arrest me and say I’m an imperialist spy.”

Ha ha! In the apartment, there was a burst of laughter, especially Alan Wilson, who claimed that no one knew refugees better than me.
