Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 127 The Great Villain

Remember the black butler in Saving Django?

Mahatma Gandhi played such a role in Cape.

The so-called "non-violent non-cooperation" is essentially a tribute to the British colonial order to the greatest extent.

What Gandhi won was not national liberation, but the recognition of the colonial government, that is, Gandhi was also from a high caste and was entitled to be on an equal footing with the British. The British should join the high caste and treat the low caste and other colored people kind of domination.

In fact, Gandhi’s surname is not very noble. The surname of Gandhi is the third-level Vaisya, belonging to the Banya caste. “Gandhi” means a food merchant. Because he has been in business for generations, Gandhi’s family is rich. De Gandhi had been the prime minister of the country, otherwise Gandhi would not have been qualified to study in London.

As a defender of the caste system and the British colonial order, Gandhi did have enough reasons to look down on Roque. Probably in Gandhi's view, Roque was no different from other Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.

Yes, after all, in the propaganda of the Expeditionary Force Command, Joubert was killed by Henry.

Unlike Gandhi, who was good at sticking a hot face to a cold ass, Rock was not used to Gandhi's stink. When he saw the contempt in Gandhi's eyes, Rock called Tang En and pointed at Gandhi. Gandhi got to the corner of the street to have a heart-to-heart talk.

"I know this guy. This guy calls for improving the social status of Indians, but he is in favor of restricting other ethnic groups from entering the Cape, such as you Chinese—" Henry waited for Tang En to drag Gandhi away before coming over, and he didn't seem to like it very much. This guy.

In 1894, the Cape colonial government passed the Amendment of the Citizenship Law in response to the large number of Indian immigrants coming to Natal, restricting Indians with harsh conditions and expanding the scope of racial discrimination.

Well, it is estimated that the Chinese are also within the restricted range.

But this news also means that there are Chinese in Cape Town?

"There must be, aren't you a Chinese?" Henry didn't take it seriously.

Rock immediately turned black.

"Well, well, no kidding, there are Chinese in Johannesburg, the former gold mine owners, they hired some Chinese as miners, I only know there are, but I don't know how many, you also know, here used to be the Trans The territory of the Republic of Vanuatu." Henry sternly, this is also the news that Henry just learned.

Johannesburg!

Rock can't wait to fly over with his wings now.

Speaking of the Chinese in Cape, it has a long history. During the Boer rule, the Dutch exiled the "prisoners" in Batavia (now Jakarta, Indonesia) to the Cape of Good Hope in Cape, including a small number of Chinese. .

In 1882, with the development of the Rand Gold Mine, the Cape was seriously short of miners, so the "De Beers Consolidated Mining Company" negotiated with the Qing government about recruiting Chinese workers and concluded a contract for recruiting Chinese workers in China.

The owner of the De Beers Consolidated Mining Company was the former Prime Minister of the Cape Colony, Cecil Rhodes.

After these Chinese workers came to Cape, they were used to develop the Rand Gold Mine. They never left Johannesburg, so it was the first time Rock knew that there were Chinese in Cape.

"What does this guy do?" Joe Russell didn't care whether there were Chinese in Cape, and his disgust for Gandhi was palpable.

"A lawyer who is not very professional, it is said that he seems to be an Indian aristocrat, so he also wants to receive corresponding courtesy, but the British Empire does not recognize the Indian aristocratic system, so - he is a guy born at the wrong time." Henry Didn't care much about Gandhi either.

In fact, Roque wanted to say, do you know who he is?

Do you know how hard he works?

Do you know how much he paid to make Indians obedient citizens of the British Empire?

Have your consciences been eaten by dogs!

It's a pity that Rock couldn't say this.

As Henry said, Gandhi was born at the wrong time.

In other words, it is "underappreciated".

Among the British, Gandhi's contribution is unknown.

Among the Indians, Gandhi's ideals are not understood.

The most ironic thing is that in 1948, Gandhi was shot and killed by a faithful believer of Hinduism.

Speaking of untimely birth, Rock suddenly remembered Gandhi's political ideas: "Actually, his political ideas are good. He advocates non-violence. We can let him get in touch with these Boers and see if he can gain anything." -"

What a black-bellied guy!

"Ah—" Henry and Joe Russell were dumbfounded again.

"Try it—" Rock didn't really believe that Gandhi could turn these Boers into obedient citizens.

But it doesn't matter even if it doesn't succeed, anyway, it's no loss for Roque.

Then try it.

Tang En was indeed a good player. When Tang En brought Gandhi back, no scars could be seen on Gandhi's face, but he looked at Tang En with hatred.

But seeing Henry, Gandhi immediately forgot the pain Tang En imposed on him.

"Okay, I will try my best!" Gandhi did not resist Henry's request in the slightest.

Anyway, Henry is also the Chief of Police of Pretoria, and his status is countless levels higher than Gandhi's. What's more, Henry is a true nobleman.

A guy like Rock, who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze, is not interested in Henry's identity, but Gandhi has suffered for a long time——

With Henry's consent, Gandhi waved his hand and immediately led more than a hundred members of the Indian Ambulance Brigade to take over the work of the police and the soldiers of the Third West Yorkshire Regiment.

These Indians are indeed very diligent, and the attitude of the police and soldiers towards the Boers is simply very different.

The police and soldiers didn't have the slightest patience with the Boers. They pushed, insulted, scolded, and even beat them at every turn. That's why there was so much crying and wailing at the scene just now, and Rock couldn't bear it.

And these Indians not only helped the Boers pack their things, but also helped the old and the young to maintain order. Their attitude was in stark contrast to the rough police and soldiers just now.

These poor Boers immediately felt the kindness of these Indians. In fact, they also knew that being thrown into the concentration camp was inevitable, but they just instinctively resisted and procrastinated, hoping to delay the time of being thrown into the concentration camp.

But after seeing the rudeness of the police and soldiers just now, facing these relatively kind Indians, they subconsciously speed up, not wanting to give the police and soldiers a chance to show up again.

So the atmosphere immediately became peaceful——

Henry and Joe Russell continued to be confused.

Rock felt bad, why did he feel like KMT and PLA, and he became a big villain, non-violent non-cooperation——

Is it really that powerful? ! ! !
