The Thames River Basin empties into the North Sea from the east coast. This storm surge floods the sea, and the east end of London is the first to be threatened. After this very popular operation.

Although the residents of the East District were on the defensive for two days, as the sea receded, the mood of the rest of their lives was released to the greatest extent, and it is not surprising that the support rate of the Labour Party has skyrocketed.

Now there is another reason for the reconstruction of London. Based on the experience of this storm surge, the Attlee Cabinet declared that if the storm surge is not successfully resisted, the East End of London, which is already in the lower Thames River, will definitely end miserably.

Alan Wilson certainly knows that this is a politician's rhetoric. The East End of London is indeed lower than other urban areas, but it is not as low as that of the Low Countries. To say that the East End is full of ocean is definitely scaring voters.

But what? This is a good thing for the London reconstruction plan. Officials from the Ministry of Reconstruction went to the East End to conduct a public opinion survey and found that the citizens of the East End of London at this time believed in the assurance of the Labour Party Cabinet and supported the reconstruction plan.

After all, the storm surge has only passed for a few days, and the Netherlands still has a lot of land in the sea.

"At present, it seems that after this storm surge, people in the East End have reached a new high in support for the current government. They have also accepted the London reconstruction plan. According to the survey of the Ministry of Reconstruction, there is little public opinion resistance."

"The most important thing is that the UK is still in a state of emergency, and the Labour Party in Congress has the upper hand. It is indeed rare in politics that all conditions are available!" Norman Brooke agreed after hearing this, "People in the Eastside are more inclined to the Labour Party. If the reconstruction plan is successful this time, it is estimated that it will become the most stable vote base of the Labour Party for a long time."

"We think about affairs beyond the interests of the party, and only consider whether it is good for the UK." Alan Wilson said this, took out a stack of documents, and pulled out a sheet from it, "This is the disaster relief material issued, I have communicated with the Admiralty, and General Mountbatten once managed the logistics of the Navy and hoarded a large number of logistical materials needed by the Navy, many of which were made in Malaya, and can be distributed this time."

"The Admiralty? Yes, you should know everything about the Admiralty." Norman Brooke couldn't help laughing. "The place that Commander Mountbatten has managed has no secrets to you."

Inadvertently, when Mountbatten was transferred to the Fourth Sea Lord, his position was clearly in the field of logistics. Of course, Daying Long Aotian couldn't use common sense, and in the end Mountbatten realized the feeling of being the First Sea Minister in advance, and he took care of everything.

As for the logistics of his job, Mountbatten also made great efforts to fill the logistics of the Royal Navy Reserve with a quota of 150,000 people. This time the storm surge came in handy.

This time the seawater infusion did not spread to the urban area. In fact, there were not many affected citizens. The logistics warehouse was enough to supply 150,000 reserve troops. Just a little out of it was enough to meet the demand.

At this moment, the Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Reconstruction are working together to distribute these materials to the more affected neighborhoods in the Eastern District.

"As for this reconstruction plan, I decided to be in charge of the division. Normally, as an overseas commissioner, you cannot care about the reconstruction project in London at any time, but I heard Barron say that you have made a major project in British India. plan." Seeing Alan Wilson wanting to explain, Norman Brooke motioned to stay calm, "I know that because of the partition of India and Pakistan, which major construction plan has not been carried out, this is not your reason."

"This is my luck. If it is not divided, the four million square kilometers of British India must be very disobedient now." Alan Wilson opened his mouth to explain his views.

Norman Brooke picked up the phone. "Operator, get William Penney, Burke Trend, Armstrong, Lawrence, Frank, and Douglas to Seventy Whitehall."

Norman Brooke called the big names in Whitehall today. In addition to the ambassador to the United States, Burke Trend and Armstrong were senior officials of the Treasury Department, and Frank was the Secretary General of the Trade Commission.

It can be said that there is no official here, it is the government scientist William Penney, of course, he is first and foremost a zoologist.

The reason for being able to become a member of the chief scientific adviser is that Norman Brooke believes that William Penney can only provide some general scientific advice to the Prime Minister and the government.

In short, among scientists, William Penney, a zoologist, is more in line with the basic principles of layman's management.

But this time, the reconstruction of London after the smog incident just needs such a zoologist to endorse the plan made by Whitehall from an environmental point of view.

"After the smog incident, the government has decided to start the reconstruction plan, although we encountered a storm surge again. But this victory in the struggle has a huge inspirational effect on the citizens of London." Norman Brooke changed the subject, "especially On the premise that the Netherlands is submerged in seawater."

Although it may be a bit detrimental to the unity of the free world, the basic truth is so true.

Without focusing on the Netherlands, Norman Brooke said to several officials who were regarded as promising in Whitehall, "My idea is to move forward in zones. This smog incident and storm surge are both affected by the Eastern District. The biggest damage. The residents of the East District are also looking forward to the government’s decision.”

"Each of you is responsible for a district, Burke Trend is responsible for the West End, Armstrong, you are responsible for the North End, the South West is handed over to Lawrence, Frank South East, as for Douglas, you coordinate the work of your colleagues from the central. Although the Central District is small , but there are also many historic buildings, and the workload is not that small.”

Since the outbreak of the smog in early December, Alan Wilson waited for her daughter to return to London at the full moon, and now another month has passed, and the freighter carrying cement and steel from Malaya has set off.

The London renovation plan, which the Cabinet Office is responsible for advancing and the Cabinet is responsible for supporting, has finally officially started at this time.

At this time, the United Kingdom did not forget to let the British troops stationed in Germany help the Netherlands in disaster relief, showing the mercy of the top students.

The most important work in the field of foreign affairs is to evaluate the just sworn in of US President Eisenhower. After all, the special relationship between the UK and the US is so important.

Will this military-born president intensify the conflict between the two groups or take some other measures. At present, the British Foreign Office is still quite uncertain.

Alan Wilson, who was temporarily in charge of the reconstruction work, has always worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and it is normal for him to formulate policies towards the United States with his colleagues in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After the storm surge, he received a telegram from McCarthy to condolences. The connection between the two has never been broken!

"Because President Eisenhower is a soldier, it is less likely to intensify conflicts. And the Republican Party itself is very restrained in foreign policy compared to the Democratic Party." Alan Wilson pointed at Sir Ismay, "We only need to Thinking about who came up with the expansion slogan of Manifest Destiny, and which party was in power in the United States during World War I and World War II, it is easy to judge this."

"Eisenhower is of German origin. Won't he take a drastic response to the Berlin crisis that is not over yet?"

"It seems that Eisenhower built Camp Rhine." Alan Wilson said to his dissenting colleague, "We can't estimate how many prisoners of war died abnormally, but the more German he was, the more he would avoid suspicion."

Alan Wilson of the Foreign Office today is the person who knows the most about the Rhine camp, because he has investigated, who asked him to briefly return to Europe in 1945 to work? He's dreaming about grabbing some American braids! Prepare for the Nassau Accords that may or may not occur.

It was also for this reason that he investigated the massacres of the Korean War, all for Britain to accumulate some leverage. Of course, whether these chips are useful depends on how much imperial heritage Britain has left.

Sir Ismay nodded, seeming to have leaned towards his own opinion, Alan Wilson added again, "We also need to know that the Republican leader Taft is a complete isolationist, and now the influence of the Taft family is in The Republican Party is still very strong."

Eisenhower is running for the U.S. presidency. He told the isolationist Taft during the period that he would withdraw as long as Taft was willing to pledge his support for NATO, which Taft refused.

After leaving office, he opposed the moon landing plan, believing that there is no benefit to wasting money. Opposes missile defense plans, arguing that immaturity hinders offensive power.

Alan Wilson, except to know that the president hit hard against Britain and France during the Suez War. He couldn't think of any other international event related to Eisenhower, raising the nuclear bomb from 1,000 to 20,000? In fact, the impact on other countries is limited.

After this discussion, Ismay sent an assessment document to Foreign Secretary Scott Morrison. I think that the new president of the United States may, to a certain extent, be very helpful in maintaining the current situation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ As for Alan Wilson, take a little time out of his working hours every day to Bonn, Paris, Los Angeles, Kuala Lumpur, Perth Telegram, he was used to this normality.

Alan Wilson was delighted that Heidi Lamar, the replacement, had arrived in London. This was the life of the Lord of the Halls.

"I also received a telegram from Los Angeles, and the crew has come to Europe with the actors that have been ordered." Heidi Lamar squinted Alan Wilson and said.

"What script?" Alan Wilson asked stupidly, listening to the endless words.

"It's temporarily set for Roman Holiday, and the heroine is Hepburn." Heidi Lamar asked meaningfully, "Are you happy now? Or anxious? Or both?"

"Eh!" Reaching out his hand and scratching his scalp, Alan Wilson looked tangled. He really had two moods now.
