Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1161 Slogan

Where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, there are not as many scruples as in the British mainland. As long as you have money, you can enjoy emperor-like treatment in Southern Africa. The governments at all levels of the Southern African Federation encourage consumption, especially rich people like Rock and Stoudemire. , Money needs to flow to generate more value, otherwise it is just a row of numbers in a bank account.

In fact, money stored in bank accounts is also liquid. Individuals do not invest externally, but banks will invest externally, as long as they are not replaced with gold and hidden in their own cellars.

After sending Kitchener to the Governor's Mansion, Roque did not return to his home, but went to Philip's manor.

Philip hadn't slept yet. He was obviously waiting for Roque. When he saw Roque come back, Philip asked for some food to be delivered, but it turned out that the person who delivered the food was Phyllis.

Phyllis, Gavin, and Alvin will also attend Kitchener's inauguration tomorrow, and Rock and Phyllis will return to Nyasaland after attending the inauguration.

"Is the Governor satisfied with his Governor's Palace?" Philip asked casually while Rock was eating. Kitchener represented the King of England in southern Africa, and no one in southern Africa dared to take it lightly.

"Of course, I can't be more satisfied—" Rock ate two snacks and drank another glass of milk, and he still didn't want to eat too much at night.

Kitchener, like Ade, was unmarried all his life and devoted all his energy to the colonial development of the empire.

Coincidentally, the two founders of southern Africa, Kitchener and Adelaide, are now the governor of southern Africa and the prime minister of southern Africa, which fully proves the importance that the British government attaches to southern Africa.

"Did the Governor tell you anything in Nyasaland?" Philip was still concerned about Kitchener's attitude towards southern Africa. Now that the relationship between London and southern Africa has entered a new stage, everyone is trying to adapt.

"Everything is normal. The governor wants to maintain the relationship between southern Africa and the mainland before the World War, but that is obviously impossible. The governor has stopped bringing up this topic these two days, but it is estimated that he has not given up his efforts. It is not easy for him to give up." Rock is prepared to face difficulties. A firm-minded person like Kitchener can be described as stubborn.

Since 1874, Kitchener has served the Empire as a colonial soldier, and now Kitchener is nearly seventy years old, and Kitchener has dedicated his entire life to the Empire, so don't let Kitchener give up easily .

"The governor has to face reality, and so does the king." Relatively speaking, Philip's loyalty to the British Empire is quite limited.

When you think about it, you can understand that Kitchener is a loner, and the empire is his only sustenance.

Philip has many family members. Rock, Henry, and Owen are all in southern Africa now. Philip naturally focuses on southern Africa, and his loyalty to the king has gradually changed to southern Africa.

"How's the situation on Louis' side?" Rock had been by Kitchener's side for the past few days, and he didn't pay enough attention to the progress of the Paris Peace Conference.

"There is no progress. It is impossible to reach an agreement before the summer. The efficiency of Paris is too low—" Philip was very disappointed. Now Philip is used to the efficiency of southern Africa. In contrast, the Paris Peace Conference is really complicated and lengthy.

In fact, we can’t blame the Paris Peace Conference for its inefficiency. It’s because the Paris Peace Conference involves too many interests. Officials participating in the Paris Peace Conference all want to strive for more interests for their own countries. Britain and France still have interests that cannot be reconciled. It is conceivable that it is difficult to reach a consensus on the appeal.

Rock can only be thankful that he has left Paris. If Rock represents Southern Africa in the Paris Peace Conference, it will drive Rock crazy.

Early the next morning, Roque went to pick up Kitchener early, and Phyllis and Philip took the children directly to the Palace of Justice, where Kitchener's inauguration ceremony was also held.

Like Roque, Kitchener was up early, but today, instead of a tuxedo, Kitchener was wearing his field marshal's uniform, still in the style of the Boer War.

The British army had eliminated the uniform styles of the Boer War a long time ago. During the Boer War, Britain was still a traditional lobster soldier. It was precisely because the color of the lobster soldier's clothing was too bright that the British Expeditionary Force fought against the Boer sharpshooter. The heavy losses caused Britain to be forced to carry out clothing reforms.

Like Kitchener, Roque is also wearing a military uniform, but unlike the nostalgic Kitchener, Roque is wearing the latest marshal uniform of the British Army, with the Order of the Garter and the Victoria Cross lined up on his chest Order of the Legion of Honor, the French Legion of Honor, and the Legion of Honor awarded to Roque by Southern Africa after the end of the World Wars.

In southern Africa, the Medal of Honor is the highest level. After the end of the World War, only nine people, including Roque, received the Medal of Honor in recognition of Roque's contribution in the World War.

Roque and Kitchener still took the same car to the Palace of Justice. Today is a big day. The roads from the Governor's Palace to the Palace of Justice have been closed. All the security departments in Pretoria have been mobilized, and the garrison is also assisting the police. The department is on duty at various intersections, and there are welcome people holding flowers on both sides of the road.

Kitchener seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't see the preoccupations he had in Nyasaland at all, so Rock finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Rock asked out of words.

"Very good, the air in southern Africa is simply fantastic, I get a cold every winter when I'm in London, so I spend most of my time in the colonies and overseas territories." Kitchener smiled, when Kitchener said smile , Roque was taken aback. The American flu has basically ended in southern Africa, but it has not yet ended in Europe.

"London's winter is indeed—" Rock also had lingering fears about London's winter, and he was deeply impressed by the half-year study at Sandhurst Royal Military Academy.

"It has been 20 years in a blink of an eye, and the current southern Africa is really unbelievable." Kitchener couldn't help sighing as he looked at the rows of buildings on both sides of the street and the welcoming crowd on the sidewalk.

Almost everyone who has just arrived in Southern Africa will be impressed by the urban construction in Southern Africa.

Pretoria is also a city rebuilt on the ruins. At the beginning of the city's reconstruction, Rock was deeply involved, so the current Pretoria, like Johannesburg and Los Angeles, fully meets the standards of a modern city definition.

"All of this was created by you. Without your victory at the beginning, there would be no southern Africa." Rock is grateful to Kitchener from the bottom of his heart. Kitchener is indeed worthy of the respect of all southern Africans.

Of course, the "all" here does not include the Boers who were unwilling after the defeat.

When the convoy came to the Palace of Justice, Roque got out of the car first, and then prepared to help Kitchinna get off.

Kitchener refused Rock's support. Although he was almost 70 years old, he had not yet reached the point where he needed help.

Those who were able to welcome Kitchener in front of the Palace of Justice were strictly checked by the Pretoria security department. Apart from the family members of government employees, they were pupils from various primary schools.

Compared with adults, elementary school students’ thinking is simpler and easier to control. This may not sound good, but in fact it is the case. Kitchener’s coming to Pretoria must not be deserted, so to create an atmosphere, We must take full advantage of the favorable conditions.

When Kitchener got off the bus, two elementary school students arranged by the Pretoria City Government presented flowers to Kitchener. The children who presented the flowers were also carefully selected. One was Owen's youngest son, and the other was Secretary of the Interior Bob Jare. His granddaughter.

"Thank you—" Although Kitchener was unmarried all his life, he was kind and kind to the children. After accepting the flowers presented by the two children, he even took a group photo with the two children.

A large group of photographers rushed over immediately, recording this precious scene with their own lenses.

The two children surrounded Kitchener and smiled at the camera.

At this moment, in the crowd behind the reporter, someone suddenly put up a white banner with the words "Colonists Get Out of Southern Africa" ​​written in red paint.

The smile on Kitchina's face froze immediately, and Rock's face outside the camera was ashen.

Before Roque could give an order, the secret agents and secret police scattered in the crowd immediately rushed forward and knocked the person holding the sign to the ground.

Ad and Philip, who were waiting for Kitchener at the gate of the Palace of Justice, also noticed this scene.

While Ade turned back to call Sidney Milner, Philip raised his hand to call Henry over, both of them looked very ugly.

I really didn't expect that while layers of defenses were being fortified, there were still people who could bring this kind of slogan to the gate of the Palace of Justice. This is everyone's dereliction of duty.

Of course, Henry is the one most responsible.

Apart from the officials who were facing reporters, not many people knew what happened.

After the group photo was finished, Kitchener, Ade, and Philip walked into the Palace of Justice, and Rock raised his hand to call Fitch over.

"Control the cameras of these reporters. All photos must be inspected before the cameras can be returned, and no photo is allowed to be leaked." Rock doesn't care about the person holding the sign. The police station and intelligence agencies will give He should be punished. What Rock is worried about is that if this scene gets out, it will have a negative impact on Kitchena and the Southern African Federal Government.

As soon as Fei Qi took the order to leave, Henry hurried over.

"what happened?"

"What's going on?" The first thing the two said after they met was to ask each other what's going on.

"You are the Minister of Justice, and you ask me what's going on?" Rock was fierce, and Henry was obviously shirking responsibility.

"You are the Minister of Defense, and all intelligence agencies are subordinate departments of the Ministry of Defense. Of course I want to ask you." Henry was confident, and this reason seemed reasonable.

"It's impossible for intelligence agencies to monitor everyone." Rock really wasn't shirking responsibility. If everyone was to be monitored, it would not be enough to expand Brad's size tenfold.
