Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1288 Another Paris

Half a year ago, France and Belgium presented the Duperokust Dunes to Southern Africa in order to thank them for their contribution in the World War.

It must be stated in advance that this gift contains evil intentions.

The Duperokust dunes are located on the Franco-Belgian border, very close to Flanders.

During the World War, fierce battles took place centered on Ypres in the Flanders region. There were three large-scale battles in total. Ypres changed hands several times and was destroyed by the war. It has not yet recovered from the trauma. .

During the Paris Peace Conference, France's desire to completely split Germany was not achieved. The "Versailles Treaty" became a "20-year armistice agreement". France has decided to build a solid Maginot Line on the French-German border. Than the border is completely covered, the duperokust dunes become another safety rope.

If the flames of war reignite after 20 years, if Germany wants to replicate the battle plan between the First World War, bypass the Maginot Line, and attack France from the direction of Belgium, it must go through the Duperokust Dunes .

Roque knew that the French had evil intentions, but an enclave in the heart of Europe was still worth taking risks in southern Africa.

Construction on the Duperokust Dunes began immediately after the Duperokust Dunes became part of Southern Africa, without stopping during the Christmas period.

Engineers from the Christian Construction Company first used explosives to flatten all the mountains in the coastal area, and the stones obtained were used to reclaim land from the sea. Now the Duperokust dunes cover an area of ​​more than 35 square kilometers, a small half of which are land reclamation. Lu got it.

The construction of the Duperokust Dunes has really made Europeans deeply understand what the speed of southern Africa is. The progress of the project can be described as rapid progress. Christian has transferred 15 people from all over the world to build the Duperokust Dunes. The 1500 construction workers and the transport ship that traveled thousands of miles from southern Africa had to stop at Dunkirk, [-] kilometers away at first. After about two months, they could directly stop at the [-]-meter pier. Port San Roque.

That's right, just after the foundation stone was laid for the port, Duperokust Dune was renamed "San Roque", which is a southern African tradition, in order to distinguish it from the city of Nyasaranglo.

In Europe now, the most famous southern African is not Cecil Rhodes, nor Ade, but the Marquis of Nyasaland, who served as the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force during the World War.

Unlike the titular marquises in the United Kingdom, the Marquis of Roque is a real power-holding feudal official. The Southern African Expeditionary Force that performed well during the World War was created by Roque. If there is no participation of the Southern African Expeditionary Force , the world war may not be over yet.

Like Foch, who was awarded the Marshal of the Three Kingdoms after the World War, Roque was also awarded the title of Marshal by Britain, France, and Belgium after the World War. However, Foch has retired now, but Roque is still in his prime. At present, 20 years If the world war breaks out again in the future, then the most likely candidate to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces is Rock.

Twenty years later, Rock was only 20 years old.

"The port is now in its infancy, but it has not yet been perfected. It will continue to expand in the future. Breakwaters and lighthouses will be built outside the port. Fortifications will be built in the border areas. The current electricity still depends on French supplies. In the future, we will definitely We need to build our own power plant, plus the port area, living quarters, military barracks, and airport—it’s not enough—” Christian said with a sad face, 35 square kilometers sounds like a lot, but it’s actually quite large for a city. It is too small, and the factories of many large enterprises often have dozens of square kilometers.

Now that Duperokust Dune has been renamed "Saint Roque", in Christian's heart, the construction must be perfect and a landmark project in southern Africa.

"Christian, I have a better plan——" Reynard Capet, who has been elected as a member of the French Congress, is personable. The genes of the Capet family are indeed good. The men are handsome and the women are beautiful. Christian recently For a while, I had a hot fight with a distant cousin of Leonard: "—less than ten kilometers north from Saint-Roch is the mouth of the Iser River, why not extend the port all the way to the mouth of the Iser River? , so that we have enough space to expand San Rocco."

The Iser River is a river in Belgium. It originates from the north side of the sandstone mountains of Monzkassel and Deleclez in northern France. It is 77 kilometers long and flows through West Flanders in western Belgium in an arc. After Niubort, it empties into the North Sea.

During the World War, in order to prevent the German offensive, the King of Belgium brazenly ordered the opening of the gate to release the water, and the gate of the Iser River was opened.

After Belgium blasted the sluices, seawater poured into the fields of Flanders, buying time for the British Expeditionary Force to defeat the Germans, but at the same time the residents living in Flanders were also unlucky. How much, this also leads to the desolation of Flanders now.

Look, it is not only Chang Kaishen who will open the gate to release the water, but also the King of Belgium.

Christian looked at the Iser River on the map, deduced in his mind and shook his head slightly: "The Iser River is not within the scope of Saint-Roch—"

"Then buy the Iser River—" Leonard Capet was full of domineering, the French looked at Belgium, just like the southern Africans looked at the Kingdom of Mozambique, they could do whatever they wanted, and they could do whatever they wanted.

"The Belgians won't agree." Christian looked hopeful, and since Leonard Capet said so, there was probably hope.

"I've already bought it." Leonard Capet looked up to the sky and smiled.

Christian didn't speak, and watched Leonard Capet's performance quietly. If Leonard Capet was willing to transfer the Iser River to Saint-Roch, Christian would be more enthusiastic.

"What's the matter? Be happy, from the mouth of the Iser River, to Nieuwpoort, and then to the Forney, it all belongs to us." Leonard Capet was full of enthusiasm, and it was in Rock's With the help, the Capet family can return to the French upper class. Reynard Capet is no less grateful to Roque than Christian.

"It's—great——" Christian clapped in slow motion with a long voice, and the rhythm was the same as the lightning in "Zootopia".

"Don't be like this Christian, I will give the Iser River to Saint-Roch, just need to leave me a small area in the port area, a small area--" Leonard Capet pinched his little finger with his thumb, Indicate how small you want the place to be.

But it's certainly not as big as a fingernail.

"How big do you want?" Christian finally became enthusiastic. If Leonard Capet is not too greedy, he can still consider it.

Although San Roque has not yet been completed, many places have already been reserved.

San Roque is the only enclave in southern Africa in Europe. There are so many large enterprises in southern Africa, such as Rand Bank, Nyasaland Company, South African Company, Fawalt Steel Group, Nyasaland Military Industry—— Counting them one by one, it is estimated that I can finish the [-] words of this chapter.

The current port area has already been taken away by major companies. Big Macs like the Rand Bank and the South African Corporation require one square kilometer from the very beginning. While building office buildings, they also need to build apartments and independent buildings for employees. villas.

The land in San Rocco is definitely much more expensive than the land in Southern Africa. It can almost be compared with the location in the center of Los Angeles. Relying on the sale of land, the Southern African federal government not only fully recovered the cost of building San Rocco, but also earned more than 300 million rand , which can be regarded as a pleasant surprise.

"It's fine to have three to five acres. I don't build an office building or a factory. I want to build a manor and move my family here." Leonard Capet is really not greedy. From Wubot to Fonei, the area is about [-] square kilometers.

If land reclamation is added, oh, the total area of ​​Saint Rocco will be tripled in an instant.

"Why? Isn't it good to live in Paris?" Christian wondered, Saint Rocco—it doesn't look like Paris now.

Only now, on the planning map of San Rocco, San Rocco not only has commercial and living areas, but also complete supporting facilities, such as schools, hospitals, libraries and so on.

With Roque's consistent style, the schools and hospitals in St. Roque must be as good as the schools and hospitals in southern Africa, and they must be second to none in France.

It’s hard to say about the school. After all, France still has the old University of Paris. Hospitals in France must not be comparable to those in southern Africa.

After the World War, professional general hospitals also appeared in France, most of which were invested by the Capet family.

"Christian, we all know that 20 years from now, the war is likely to resume, so I don't want my family to stay in Paris and worry all day long-and this is not just my own needs, the Iser River, I suggest that you don’t build any factory warehouses, but directly build a high-end residential area for sale, believe it or not, all the French want to live in it.” Reynard Capet’s words showed his admiration for the French government. Serious mistrust, think about the German striker approaching Paris several times during the World War, each time causing Paris to flee in panic, it is no exaggeration to describe it as the end of the world.

Since San Roque is already a territory of Southern Africa, the federal government of Southern Africa must ensure the safety of Saint Rocco. In this way, living in San Rocco is safer than living in Paris, which is the most important thing for rich people.

Money is a thing that can be earned and spent, especially for a family like the Capet family that was once in decline and is now making a comeback, Leonard Capet is very crisis-conscious.

"That's a good idea, let's discuss it—" Christian didn't have much interest in making money, and if he gathered all the rich French in Saint-Roch, would Saint-Roch become another Paris.

ps: Come, come, the melon you want is here. That big girl looks pretty good, but you can drink half a catty of 52-degree liquor, and then I will pour two bottles of beer to fill the cracks. Although I am a salty fish, I am honest, reliable and trustworthy Patriotic and dedicated, I don’t even know if I’m sold out——
