Chapter 1423 Pan-Oceanic Regional Cooperation Organization (rd update, please subscribe)
"Return..."

Looking at each other, Li Yian didn't say anything - this was bullshit based on friendship.

If that's the case, no one will believe it. Even if the three giants of World War II sat together, they would not talk about anti-fascism, but the distribution of interests.

Anti-fascism is important, but interests are more important!

You can't say it's for Andrew!
Looking at Wells, Li Yian said:
"Mr. Wells, I believe that there are deep reasons why you chose me over London. After all, with the change of the Conservative Party and the Labour Party, many policies in London will change."

This is exactly the biggest problem with the Western world - with every change, their policies change, just like the Conservatives want to maintain the colonies and the Labour Party feels that the colonies are a waste of resources.

It is for this reason that these border residents of the empire are very clear that even if they win the support of the Conservative cabinet, once the Labour Party comes to power, everything will be reset to zero, and what awaits them at that time will still be "betrayal by the empire."

So, after searching everywhere, they found this place!
Because in the entire Western world, only Li Yian does not need to consider the change of regime. He is also the only one who can continue to support them.

Even the United States cannot do this.

"Yes, sir, this is exactly why we seek your help!"

Wells did not hide this, but emphasized:

“And I believe that we can reach consensus on many issues. After all, our interests are the same!”

"Yes, it is precisely because our interests are the same, so..."

Li Yian looked at the guy in front of him and said:
"So, we need to set up a cooperative organization!"

"Cooperative organization?"

Wells looked at the other person in confusion.

"Yes!"

Li Yian leaned forward slightly and said:

"This security organization could be a Pan-Oceanic Cooperation Organization, an organization that includes us, East Africa, Iraq, Iran and other countries and regions as the core to carry out extensive economic, security and other cooperation.

In this framework, the interests of all of us will be protected, even in the face of international pressure, such as Washington, London and other places demanding majority control, with the resistance of regional organizations, their demands will become pale and powerless, of course, this does not conflict with the Commonwealth framework. "

This is Li Yian’s real purpose - a regional cooperation organization, which may or may not be NATO.

But with this organization, we can use it as a basis to expand our influence in these countries in the future - such as further controlling the economy and establishing military bases.

Things like these are actually just about building your own “circle of friends”.

Faced with this suggestion, Wells weighed it in his mind. He was well aware of the pressure that East Africa might face after its independence in the future. For example, the minority control of the locals by Eurasian immigrants would definitely be suppressed by the United States and even London. In this case, they really needed a cooperative organization to counter international pressure.

After weighing the pros and cons for a moment, Wells said:
“I hope that in the future, you can send troops to East Africa!”

He then emphasized:
"As soon as East Africa gains independence, we will sign a defense cooperation agreement with you within the Commonwealth framework, allowing you to establish military bases in East Africa to help us suppress the armed rebellion supported by the Soviet Union."

The sudden suggestion made Li Yian stunned. At the beginning, he did not expect that the other party would "kneel". Oh no, the other party had such a strong sense of active cooperation.

Full cooperation so quickly!
Looking at Wells in front of him, Li Yian had to admit one thing - there are always many talented people among the veteran politicians in the UK, and the imperial thinking these people possess is incomparable to ordinary politicians, even in the colonies...

is also like this!

They know very well what is most important to them. Perhaps Andrew's arrival will allow them to gain independence, but whether they can get the security guarantee of the UK is unknown.

In this case, I became their only choice.

It's really not easy to weigh the pros and cons in such a short time!

The British Empire is full of talented people!
What a pity... These imperial politicians will eventually be eliminated by history, because the imperial thinking of the imperial politicians themselves is incorrect.

Just like this guy Qianjin, he can imagine such a federation. But this federation, without the support of Britain, is all wishful thinking. However, the federation he envisioned is essentially a federation that excludes local people, which naturally goes against the current mainstream values.

In this case, for the sake of long-term interests, he found himself in exchange for his support by allocating power to the federation.

And I just took the opportunity to tell him that you have better options.

So give them a king, give them an organization!
If it were some other people, they would probably just refuse directly for the sake of inexplicable "dignity"!

But this guy is very clear about the benefits of this matter to them, both the king and the cooperative organization!

It's really not easy to make a decision so quickly in such a short time!

This guy... is a talent!

“It turns out that there is such an operation.”

Li Yian was lost in thought, walking slowly to the window, his eyes still fixed on the street below. The streets of London were unchanging, as if nothing had changed here in the past few decades.

But now, the wheels are rolling, and the trend of history will move forward unstoppably.

Turning around and looking at Wells, Li Yian said.

"Sometimes I feel like the new world is always trying to impose its will on us, rather than facing reality. Now maybe we should make up for that mistake!"

What is this “new world” he is talking about?
Of course, it was an attempt by the United States and the Soviet Union to destroy colonies when they rebuilt the world order after the war. Some colonies should be destroyed, but in some places, this kind of rule should continue to be maintained.

For example, in Africa, after getting rid of colonial rule, what awaited the locals? Tyrants who took pleasure in killing, greedy politicians, and brutal soldiers.

There are wars, famines, and massacres.

It's a step backwards!

Just like South Africa, which went from a country that could manufacture airplanes, tanks, cannons, even atomic bombs and other sophisticated technology products with an industrial level close to that of Europe and the United States to a country that was completely impoverished. In this process, what did the black people who gained freedom also gain? Violence, poverty and disease.

And what do those black politicians get?
They looted the country and turned it into mansions in London, New York, Paris and Geneva, into deposits in Swiss banks and into decorations in the mansions.

It only took a dozen years for the country to go from being the sixth largest economy in the world to being penniless!
Did those singing and dancing black people realize at that time that when they welcomed the so-called "freedom", they would soon lose their jobs and their stable lives?

The former pearl of Africa has restored "Africa's original appearance" in just a few years.

This is Africa!
"Yes, we should correct this mistake as soon as possible."

The answer from the gentleman in front of him finally made Wells breathe a sigh of relief. His goal had been achieved.

"So what should we do next?"

Li Yian asked back:

"Is there anything we can help you with?"

"Sir, there is no need for you to come forward yet. We will handle everything and strive for the support of the royal family and the consent of the Colonial Office.

When the establishment of the East African Federation is put on the agenda, we will set up a security organization. At that time, I think the East African Federation will need your support for security protection. "

What does it mean to provide certain security protection support?

They just need to send troops to fight those rebels!

Nodding and looking at the other party, Li Yian said:

"Don't worry, we will ensure that order is restored as long as necessary. However, how do you plan to convince London?"

"Sir, London doesn't need us to convince them, the Africans will convince them!"

Wells smiled and said:
"Rebellion, nothing is more convincing than rebellion, nothing is more convincing than chaos."

There was no need to know the specific details anymore. Afterwards, Li Yian asked Wells about some things in East Africa. Wells naturally told him everything he knew.

Wells then stayed for another 10 minutes, but Li Yian had already learned most of what he needed to know. At 5:20, Robert came in and politely led his old classmate out, just as he had welcomed him in.

As soon as they left, Li Yian waved Qiao Renjie over and said to him:
“Immediately contact the Investigation Department through the representative office and ask them to strengthen their work in East Africa!”

After that he gave a few more simple instructions, and after Qiao Renjie left, Li Yian grinned.

What will they do next?
They will definitely use restrictive clauses such as land, property, and taxation to ensure that they can gain power through "fairness". This is the basic operation of white people. For example, in Africa, white people, who make up an absolute minority of the population, account for more than 95% of the total voting population.

And like other white colonists, they would claim that the local electoral system was essentially non-discriminatory, believing that as the locals gradually improved in education and wealth, there would be opportunities for majority rule.

In short, they are definitely out of trouble now!

"Since you have gone out of your way to seek welfare for the locals, then we will also go out of our way to accept your suggestions and contribute to the development of Africa together!"

Li Yian, standing at the window, just stood there motionless, staring at London outside the window, thinking about something.

"Let Andrew be king."

I have to say this idea is very tempting!

After all, no matter what, sometimes blood matters don't need to be explained in words.

"The only question is, will Lily agree?"

At this moment he heard the sound of the door opening, and the person who walked in was none other than Elizabeth.

"Lily, the person who just came is from Tanganyika..."

"I know him,"

Elizabeth nodded and said:
"He has been in London for the past month, and seems to be planning something. He hopes that their lives there can continue, so they will always try every means to gain all the support, which should be the reason why he came here."

Even though she rarely came into contact with such policies, Elizabeth knew why they came here.

"So what do you think?"

In response to his question, Elizabeth thought for a moment and then said:

"This is a matter for Downing Street to consider. Now all of this is for Downing Street to consider. They never consider my opinion."

They certainly would not consider her opinion, just as they never considered George VI's opinion when they decided to give up India.

"Yes, when considering these issues, they are more based on political and practical influences. Other things are not within their consideration, but..."

Looking at the woman in front of him, Li Yian said:
"Then he will give you a very tempting reason to get you involved in this matter."

"what?"

Elizabeth looked at the man in front of her with some confusion, and then said:

"What did you say?"

"Andrew!"

Li Yian said bluntly:

"If he had the chance to be king, would you have turned it down?"
