619 Very different British

The Americans are really impatient, and if Najib is allowed to cooperate with the British, the result will be that Egypt will remain the status quo, which is a very bad result for the United States. Because it means that they have not opened up the situation in www.biquge.info the Middle East, they can only watch Britain, France and the Soviet Union unite vertically and horizontally. So the Americans decided to intervene more directly, at least to give Nasser and Sadat more promises, and encourage them to rebel against the British.

It has to be said that this time the Americans' shot in the arm was very effective, and they promised Nasser and Sadat to support them in overthrowing Muhammad. Ali dynasty, as long as they succeed, the United States will give direct political support, and even military support if necessary, the Sixth Fleet is ready for everything, and if Britain dares to intervene directly, then it will be a hard bar head-on.

This kind of assurance is quite strong, so that Nasser and Sadat are full of confidence, and they began to link up with more officers and actively prepare for a coup d'état.

On the other hand, Najib was also busy, and he and the British representatives held a secret meeting with Farouk I to determine the details of Farouk I's abdication. It was clear that after the abdication of Farouk I was established by Mehmed. Abdul. Prince Munnam was temporarily regent, and when Farouk I had an heir, he was succeeded by an heir.

The secret talks went very quickly, because Farouk I had almost no resistance under the support of the British, and Farouk I's henchmen were divided by the British. Abdul. Prince Munum was happily preparing to become regent, and naturally wished that Farouk I would abdicate as soon as possible. Farouk I, who was troubled internally and externally, could only accept the reality with great reluctance.

Of course, at first, Farouk I was also ready to fight for some privileges for himself, such as staying in Egypt, such as financial support. But all this is firmly opposed by Najib, and in his opinion, if Farouk I does not leave Egypt, he is a thief who does not die, or he is trying to make a comeback, which is absolutely not allowed. As for financial support, who doesn't know that this product is a loser, and how much money there is is not enough for him to squander.

After a verbal exchange, Farouk I's unreasonable request was denied, and he had no choice but to leave Egypt to live abroad. Najib was very satisfied with this, believing that the "revolution" had finally triumphed.

According to Najib, Muhammad. Abdul. Prince Munnam and the British negotiated terms, Mohammed. Abdul. Prince Munamu will temporarily act as regent for the king's powers, while Najib Najib will become prime minister responsible for organizing a new cabinet. The handover ceremony will take place at Cape Thine Palace in Alexandria, just a week later.

Najib was thrilled at the thought that he would lead Egypt to a new chapter in a week's time, and he vowed to work hard to make a career out of it, and to show Nasser and Sadat that he was right.

However, what Najib did not expect was that at this time, Nasser and Sadat were also ready for the "revolution", and they had already gathered a large number of middle-level officers, all of whom were opposed to Muhammad. The feudal rule of the Ali dynasty and the main force of the colonial policy of British imperialism belonged to the young Zhuang radical faction. Nassar was agreed not only by the military stalwart but also by the ACTU, which has a million-member general strike to show solidarity with the soldiers' actions as soon as the "revolution" begins. It can be said that everything is ready only to owe the east wind, and the little naïve Najib is still in the dark.

"The Free Officers' Organization is about to stage a coup d'état." In his report on his work, Yevgeny wrote, "The situation in Egypt is about to change dramatically, please instruct whether to take action." ”

Need action? For the Soviet Union, if it was to act, there were not many options, either to support the British or the Americans, but neither was a good bird, and even if the Soviet Union supported them, they would not be rewarded accordingly. So on this issue of politics. He is very cautious in governing the situation, and there are many opinions.

Sverdlov believed that neither the British nor the Americans could be supported, and that the Soviet Union should intervene directly in the Egyptian question and prop up a new pro-Soviet government to come to power. Was this proposal beneficial to the USSR? It was certainly good, but it was not a favorable proposal that would have been implemented, because if Sverdlov's intentions were to be realized, the Soviet Union would first have to find an agent in Egypt.

So did the USSR have an agent in Egypt? Yes, but the power and sense of existence are very weak, and they basically rely on the power of the Orthodox Church, and as we all know, the Orthodox Church is incompatible with YSL Christianity, and the mainstream of Egypt is still ******. Therefore, it is a bit of a fool's dream to want to install an Orthodox Christian-led regime in Egypt.

At this moment, it is very unrealistic to want to support the Orthodox forces to take a share of the pie in Egypt, and with the strength of the Orthodox Church, even if it forcibly comes to power, I am afraid that it will not be able to control Egypt. Britain and the United States, which have been offended severely, may temporarily abandon the agents of the Soviet Union, which they had previously dealt with first. Especially considering Sverdlov's criminal record, this thing hasn't been wiped clean in Yugoslavia before, and he is doing trouble in Egypt, I'm afraid it's a cheat.

So Sverdlov's proposal was rejected in the first place, and then the next thing was very simple, the Soviet Union had nothing more than to choose between Britain and the United States or simply sit on the hill and watch the tiger fight, and there was no other choice.

Politics. The mainstream opinion of governing the situation is that it is not in the same boat as Britain and the United States, and does not support either side in interfering in Egypt's internal affairs. It's safe and comfortable, so why not?

However, Li Xiaofeng did not agree with this opinion, he thought that it was safe and comfortable to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but it was also equivalent to sitting back and watching the opportunity slip away, and Britain and the United States tossed that no matter who won or lost, Egypt's fat meat could not fall into the mouth of the Soviet Union, and this method of almost stupidity was too passive. Just imagine, if the British had won, Britain would have consolidated its control in the Middle East, which would not have benefited the Soviet Union. And if the United States wins, it means that the Americans have finally opened a breakthrough in the Middle East, and in the future, the big drama in the Middle East will not be sung by three but by four. Is it a good thing that the cake in the Middle East is only so big, and there is a big stomach that does not deal with the Soviet Union?

Li Xiaofeng felt that no matter who won or lost, it would not be beneficial to the Soviet Union, and it was wrong to sit back and wait like this, and the Soviet Union should take active action to turn bad things into good things!

So how do you turn a bad thing into a good thing? Li Xiaofeng believes that the method is very simple, proceed from interests in everything, and thoroughly smash the control of Britain and France over the Middle East, and at the same time prevent the United States from taking advantage of the situation to become bigger. And this is where the means of combining vertical and horizontal means are used.

Even if the Soviet Union used the relationship between Israel and Turkey to lay two wedges in the Middle East, but these two wedges are still too weak and not worth mentioning compared with the surrounding Arab forces, of course, this is not to say that Israel's military strength is not good, but that the area under Israel's actual control is too remote and narrow. Most of the Middle East's most valuable oil resources are on one side of the two bays, and the Mediterranean side is really oil-poor. Even with Israel, the Soviet Union could not fully control the direction of oil. If you want to control the direction of oil, you must either develop eastward to grab the territory of future oil princes, or you must control the Suez Canal to guard the transportation routes.

From this point of view, the British still have a great advantage, the Suez Canal is in hand, and the Arab princes in the east are very close to them, so it can be said that the advantage is in their hands. In addition to a French on the side to help the show, there is really no way to take them when they are idle. At least the USSR alone could not do it.

Li Xiaofeng's idea was very simple: since the Soviet Union alone was not the opponent of those two companies, then find a big hooligan who also coveted the interests of Middle Eastern oil in the two partners. First, the old order in the Middle East of Britain and France will be completely smashed, and then everyone will rely on their own means to stake their ground.

In other words, the whole plan will be divided into two stages, the first stage is that the United States and the Soviet Union first dismantle the old framework of Britain and France, and the second stage is that the United States and the Soviet Union will show their ability to delimit their spheres of influence.

Seems simple? No, it's actually hard. It's not that it's hard to tear down the old order of Britain and France, but to put it in my heart, these two are yesterday's yellow flowers, and they are emaciated camels, and if the United States and the Soviet Union do it, they can be taught how to behave in minutes. After the old order was destroyed, the United States could easily create a new order in the Middle East with its strong military and economic strength. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, was not so easy, and it may have been militarily half a pound or two, but economically the Soviet Union was a cut behind, and more importantly, the Soviet Union was naturally weaker than the United States ideologically.

To these nouveau riche turtles in the Middle East, the atheistic Bolsheviks were evil and even more in need of jihad targets than Christians and Jews. The two are naturally not very good at dealing with each other ideologically. What's more, in this time and space, the Soviet Union was still the largest supporter of the Jews, and without the support of the Soviet Union, it would have been impossible for the Jews to return to Palestine. Therefore, in the eyes of the fanatical ****** in the Middle East, the Soviet Union is an evil force, how can it allow the evil forces to enter the Middle East, how can it cooperate with them?

The United States is very different, the world's largest oil consumer, big customers are naturally popular, and the Soviet Union is still a business-grabbing (the Soviet Union was and is still a giant in oil exports). The Americans have money, but they don't support the Jews, and they are willing to pit the British, this is a natural good friend, okay!

Let's put it this way, let the Arab countries choose between the USSR and the United States, then the USSR will definitely be passed. This is really too bad. In order to avoid the efforts made in the first stage from being in vain, the Soviet Union must reach a gentleman's agreement with the United States before deciding that it will join forces with the United States to deal with Britain and France. Otherwise, after the deed is completed, the Soviet Union will have the possibility of marrying someone!

But the negotiations were also a bit difficult to start, and the Americans were confident that overthrowing British rule in Egypt was not a big deal. At this time, the Soviet Union leaned forward and asked, "Can we cooperate?" It is estimated that the reply of the United States is: "!" ”

To put it bluntly, the USSR had to show its worth and had to let the Americans know that without the help of the USSR, their Egyptian subversive plans could not have succeeded. In other words, it is better for the Soviet Union to make trouble first and force the Americans to have to ask for cooperation, so that the correct way to obtain interests in the Middle East.

How to mess with it? Truth be told, it's also a political test. Because the situation in Egypt is already like this, it will definitely require a free officer organization to cause trouble, but it is very difficult to grasp the extent of this trouble.

If the trouble is made bigger, I am afraid that the strength of the Free Officers' Organization will suffer a heavy blow, so it is difficult to say whether it will be able to successfully launch a coup d'état in the future. And the trouble is not big enough, and the Free Officers Organization or the United States can easily solve the trouble, then naturally the Soviet Union will not be needed. Things are so troublesome, Li Xiaofeng must grasp the degree of it, no more or less!

So does Li Xiaofeng have a way? Yes, his solution was simple, and soon he instructed Yevgeny to leak a message that implied a military coup against the current government in Egypt.

This degree is just right, releasing a wind, but it is said so vaguely that the British and Americans cannot understand the depth of the water, so that they dare not act rashly. And as long as they follow the news thrown by Yevgeny and check it up, the figure of the Soviet Union will loom out. That's when it's the Americans' turn to do the multiple-choice questions.

Some comrades may ask, the British also know, what to do? Is there a risk of exposure? This kind of worry is not necessary, so what if the British know about it? Not to mention that the Soviet Union released this news in their favor, and the Soviet Union did not have much presence in Egypt, so it was impossible to do things alone. As long as the British are in their right senses, they will not go to trouble the Soviet Union, but should carefully check who is planning to coup d'état.

Of course, Britain is not without smart people, such as Learvin, who works for a British consulting firm, smelled conspiracy. She immediately made a careful analysis, believing that the situation in Egypt was precarious, and that a conspiracy against Britain was being carried out.

If it was when Churchill was in power, Learwin's analysis would have attracted the attention of the cabinet, but now Churchill is still writing memoirs offstage, and Learvine was also swept away from MI6 by Attlee. As a result, the warning fed back to the cabinet through the consulting firm was put on Attlee's desk for a long time, and the other did not attract enough attention from the Attlee cabinet.

In fact, Attlee did not like Learvine at all, believing that Learvine was a clown when he was in charge of MI6 and was toyed with by KGB and applauded. So when he came to power, he removed Learvin as quickly as possible, completely ignoring the strong advice in the memorandum that Churchill left him.

So after seeing Learwin's report, Attlee was completely inappropriate, and he thought that a certain woman was trying to attract attention and grandstand. Now that even Najib has been co-opted by the British Empire, who else can threaten the British Empire's rule in Egypt? Nasser? Sadat? What can these little people do?

In fact, Learwin also knew that Attlee would not take the report she worked so hard to make seriously, but she felt that it was her responsibility to say it or not, and it was Attlee's responsibility to listen or not, and even the female spy made a bet with her new colleague that Attlee would be cheated on his grandmother's house again this time, and most of the privileges of the British Empire in Egypt would be completely lost.

It's a pity that no one takes her warnings and the ridicule of her bets seriously, and most people regard Learvin as an outdated madwoman, completely unworthy of mention.

It was the Americans who really listened to Liervin's warning, and when the RAND Corporation of the United States learned of this report, it immediately attracted great attention. The relevant analysis was immediately reported to the Pentagon. The US Department of Defense was taken aback when they learned of Liervin's analysis, not only because the imminent coup d'état had been leaked, but also because Liervin concluded that the leak of the Soviet Union at this time was also because Pei Gong did not intend to drink, and I am afraid that it was also aimed at Egypt.

If the Pentagon is not too worried about just leaking secrets, but if the Soviet Union is involved in asking a third party to intervene, it will have to attract the attention of the Americans. They were desperate to know what the Soviets were up to. Was it deliberately demolished? Or do you want a piece of the pie?

Of course, whatever the possibility, the United States must attach great importance to it, because the Soviet Union has the strength to make trouble. The Pentagon immediately asked the RAND Corporation to produce the relevant analysis report, and in a short period of time, where could the RAND Corporation find out the Soviet Union's intentions, it had no choice but to outsource the analysis report to the consulting company where Li Ervin worked.

When Learvin learned all this, he was also full of emotion, compared with the United States, Britain is indeed too rigid and decadent, and the different attitudes towards the same thing just illustrate the future of the two countries, one is the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and the other is the sunset.

Learwin actually held her breath in her heart, she was also angry when she was swept out of the house by Attlee, and vowed to make Attlee look good. It's just that Attlee is the Prime Minister of the British Empire, and she is a good unemployed spy, so how easy is it to get revenge?

But this time, Learwin knew there was a chance for revenge. Her analysis report Attlee doesn't pay attention to it, so it's better to let Attlee suffer a big loss, anyway, according to the current development of the situation, it must be the British Empire that suffers, as long as Attlee continues to be the first, this is inevitable. In that case, why not take the American's hand and slap Attlee hard in the mouth this time? If this mouth is pumped loudly enough, maybe Attlee and the Labour Party will be disgraced, and then Churchill will come back again, wouldn't it be beautiful! (To be continued.) )
