Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 105 Cooking Oil on Fire

To solve the prisoner-of-war problem openly and aboveboard, to complete the tasks assigned by August Russell, and not to take the blame and leave the post-war Boers with a handle, this is the whole of Rock's plan.

The key to the perfect implementation of the plan lies in the British soldiers stationed at Fort Simmons. Rock found Major Bill Bradley, whom he met in the Oak Bar. Major Bill Bradley was very interested in Rock's plan, after all , this is a chance for "cowards" to prove themselves.

The best of both worlds.

Both Rock and Bill Bradley were pleased with the result.

"—yes, that's it, Boer Allied prisoners of war in the refugee camp rioted, they attacked the police on the night patrol, took their weapons, and killed two patrolmen—thanks to Bill Bulla of the 127rd Wiltshire Regiment Major Derry led the troops to arrive in time, and they stopped the riot of prisoners of war. 11 prisoners of war were killed during the riot, and the whereabouts of [-] were unknown. Major Bill Bradley is stepping up his pursuit." All to Bill Bradley.

This is exactly what Bill Bradley wanted. Not everyone has such an opportunity. Compared with those cunning and cruel guerrillas, disarmed prisoners of war are like toothless tigers.

Oh, by the way, the two Webley revolvers that were taken were empty.

"Nice job! Inspector." August Russell looked at Roque with admiration. Compared with those Indian policemen who were eating vegetarian food, Roque was really outstanding.

"I'm sorry Director, I let you down, this shouldn't have happened—" Rock was still blaming himself and apologizing.

"Hehehehe——" August Russell stood up from the chair, with a height of up to 1.7 meters: "Locke, you don't need to apologize, this is not your problem, go back and work hard, I'm thinking about rewarding you."

This promise has no effect, what to think about, what to say in two days, what to say is almost the same, and it means the same thing as being far away.

"Yes, Director, I will definitely work hard!" Although he knew that there was probably no reward, Rock still wanted to express his gratitude.

Leaving the police station, Rock had to get together with Henry as usual.

"Great job, Locke, I knew you could do it." Henry's words were exactly the same as August Russell's, but the tone of the two was completely different.

"Treatly, as if walking on thin ice." Rock was really not proud, and the flowers were blooming like a fire, and if this kind of thing was not handled properly, there would be endless troubles.

"Come on, be happy. The director is considering appointing you as a senior inspector. You deserve it. At the same time, the director is communicating with Huayong Ying to hire more Huayong to be a police officer in Cape Town. You may not know it yet. After a while, when the annexation of the Transvaal and Orange is completed, the police systems in these two places will start to be rebuilt, so be prepared for Locke." Henry provided a lot of information and a lot of information , Rock needs a little time to absorb.

It would be great if he could be appointed as a senior inspector. Henry is the only superintendent in the Cape Town Police Department, and the next senior inspector will be Austin Burns. If Rock is appointed as a senior inspector, it means Therefore, Roque became the fourth in command of the Cape Town Police Department, which is of great significance.

Compared with being appointed as a senior inspector, Rock prefers to see the Cape Town Police Department hire more Huayong as policemen. In June, the Boer War came to an end, and the Eight-Power Allied Forces were also formed at the same time. Around June 6, The plans of the Eight-Power Allied Forces have been approved by the governments of various countries one after another, and the war is about to break out.

If Roque hadn't arrived in Cape Town, then maybe Roque would also participate in this war.

Now things have turned around. If Cape needs to hire more Huayong as policemen, then maybe the Huayong camp will not participate in the war, and there will be no need to leave a stain on history.

At the same time, there are also the police systems in Transvaal and Orange. After the Cape Colony annexes these two areas, the police system must be rebuilt in these two areas. This also means that there will be a large number of vacancies. According to Rock's performance during this period, Rock has every reason to look forward to a higher position.

It is estimated that the top leader, the regional police chief, is impossible, but the deputy chief can indeed be expected, especially if it is under the premise that Henry is appointed as the police chief.

"If you have the chance, go to the Governor's Mansion." Roque reminded Henry that the current Governor Alfred Milner will soon become the local administrator and Governor of the Transvaal and Orange, and now It is a good opportunity to contact Alfred Milner.

"How do you think I know this news? I just attended the celebration dinner for the conquest of Pretoria. After the dinner, His Excellency the Governor came to me specifically and asked me what I think about the Boers." Henry was triumphant, this is The advantage of being an Englishman, no matter how well Rock performed, he never had such an opportunity.

"How did you answer?" Rock was a little nervous. If Henry didn't perform well, he would be sidelined by Alfred Milner.

"How else to answer? We've talked many times that the Boers are not to be trusted, but to control the Transvaal and Orange we have to rely on the Boers, and the Zulus, we're going to make the Boers A divided Cape is more in line with the interests of the British Empire." Henry is not leaking, and the British are indeed good at mixing sand.

"Okay, it's not bad." Rock felt relieved, and the loudest statement now is to kill all the Boers.

This kind of argument is nonsense, let alone whether it is possible to kill all the Boers, who will dig the gold after killing all the Boers?

Count on those pampered Brits?

Don't be funny, the British can eat, drink and have fun, just work.

What's more, there are not only Boers in the Transvaal and Orange, but also hundreds of thousands of Boers in the Cape. It is impossible to kill all the Boers.

Therefore, the most realistic way is to "use barbarians to control barbarians". After all, for the British, the gold from the Rand Gold Mine is the most attractive. For those gold, the British should not mind giving certain benefits to the Boers. In fact, Shortly after the end of the Boer War, the British gave Cape an autonomous status. As long as Cape honestly sent gold to London, the British didn't care who controlled Cape.

It can't be said that they don't care, whether they are Boers or British, they are at least white, not people of color, so Rock still has a lot of work to do.
