Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1386 Two Sayings

The appearance of the helicopter did not cause much disturbance.

The performance of the current helicopters is not powerful enough, and their functions are limited, and they need to be continuously improved to meet Rock's requirements.

However, the process of developing the helicopter has given a good start to the scientific research in southern Africa. In the past, the major research institutes in southern Africa were fighting in different fields, and they had never tried to concentrate their efforts on major tasks.

Through the development of helicopters, many people realized the power of the collective.

Nyasaran Automobile and Nyasaran Heavy Industries took the lead in taking action and jointly established the Engine and Transmission Research Institute to continue to maintain the lead over Ford and Rhodesia Motors.

Edward Shipyard and Walvis Bay Shipyard also have the intention to join forces. After the signing of the "Washington Naval Treaty", the demand for warships in various countries has continued to decline. With the arrival of the "Navy Holiday", Edward Shipyard and Walvis Bay Shipyard hope to join forces with American shipping companies and European shipping companies compete to get more orders.

Rock has higher requirements for scientific research. It may be a bit difficult to ask scientists in southern Africa to study atomic bombs. It is still possible to study a "multiple rocket launcher". Rock has also coveted "Katyusha" for a long time, and field battle Compared with artillery, Katyusha has shorter preparation time, fierce firepower, longer range, and greater pressure on the enemy. The key is that there are not many technical difficulties. With the current technical level, it is completely possible to build multiple rocket launchers in advance. .

If you can make it, make it, even if you don't need it, it's good as a technical reserve.

On October [-]th, Rock came to Milna to watch the helicopter flight show.

For the helicopter, Rock still has great expectations.

Unlike airplanes, helicopters have wider application fields, lower environmental requirements, and play a greater role. Whether it is military or civilian, helicopters have a large market.

"Helicopters are definitely an epoch-making invention. We need to continue research on the basis of the present, with longer range, greater load, and better stability. The pursuit of technology is endless-" Rock's researchers put forward higher requirements, Southern Africa has advantages in technology, but the advantages are not great, and more accumulation is needed.

"What we are seeing now is the second generation of helicopters. Compared with the first generation, the current helicopters fly higher, fly farther, and of course have a larger load. We also invented the rotorcraft in the process of developing the helicopter. , Compared with helicopters, gyroplanes are cheaper and safer.” Igor was refreshed, and he only now realized Rock’s place in the scientific community in southern Africa.

The reason why Christian Human Resources Company found Igor was also because of Rock's request. Rock was never stingy in this regard, and southern Africa is indeed full of talents.

Although Rock has never participated in scientific research, it is blunt to say that the scientific research in southern Africa is carried out under the guidance of Rock.

It was only after Igor came to Southern Africa that I learned that the idea of ​​helicopters in Southern Africa was originally determined by Rock. Rock even directly drew the concept map of the helicopter, which surprised Igor. .

It can't be said that he is astonishing as a heavenly man. Although Roque is amazing, there are many amazing people in this world.

For example, the Nikola Tesla in the United States——

Compared with Nikola Tesla, Rock is still slightly inferior, who is the real master.

"When developing a helicopter, we must pay attention to several different directions, one of which is armed air assault, which requires the helicopter to have powerful firepower and air assault capabilities, and the other is long-distance transportation, which is not only used for personnel and equipment, but more importantly The most important thing is air supply, which requires high performance and stability of the helicopter, work hard gentlemen, our future is a sea of ​​stars——" Rock poured chicken soup while pumping chicken blood, of course, he did not forget the real reward .

After the helicopter was successfully developed, Rock directly took out 100 million rand to reward the team members who participated in the helicopter research.

Millionaires like Diesel definitely look down on such a small amount of money.

But for ordinary scientific researchers, this reward is still very fragrant. Some scientific researchers who played an important role in the development of helicopters received rewards of more than [-] rand, even senior students from Nyasaland University Lecturer, it will take at least ten years to earn this amount of money.

In the evening, Rock prepared a grand welcome dinner for the scientists.

Not long after the dinner started, Rock received a bad news.

Just now, an inexplicable fire broke out at the Naval Base in the Bahamas in Southern Africa. In order to build the Naval Base, the materials hoarded by the Federal Government of Southern Africa in the Bahamas were burned and all were burned in the fire.

Rock's first reaction was that the Americans were at work.

Construction of the Naval Base in the Bahamas has stalled after relations between Southern Africa and the United States returned to normal.

However, before that, Southern Africa had already shipped a considerable amount of construction materials to the Bahamas. After the construction of the naval base stopped, these materials were not shipped back to Southern Africa, but were stored in the Bahamas on the spot for future needs.

It is impossible for a warehouse where materials are stored to catch fire for no reason, unless it is arson.

"Send a telegram to Patton and order Patton to conduct a thorough investigation." Rock remained calm, the joint military exercise has ended, the Royal Navy and the Southern African Navy have gained a lot, and Patton and other officers participating in the joint military exercise have returned to their original places. The Bahamas is under the administration of the Atlantic Fleet.

"Yes my lord—" Fitch led away.

Rock looked back and was still talking and laughing happily, and his emotions were not affected.

This is not a big deal, and it won't affect Rock's mood.

Of course, for others, it is not so calm.

On Grand Bahama Island in the Bahamas, Lu Zheng looked at the burned-out warehouse without saying a word.

The remaining materials for the construction of the naval base are filled with 25 huge warehouses. Each of these warehouses covers an area of ​​hundreds of square meters. The capital was cut down, and Lu Zheng led a company to guard it.

"There was almost no warning when the fire broke out. I just checked the fire prevention facilities of all the warehouses yesterday afternoon. All the facilities are normal. The first fire broke out was the timber warehouse. There were more than one fire point. It was definitely not caused by the guards smoking—" Lu The deputy is Xiao Yong from Johannesburg. Both of them are from the Army and are now serving in the Marine Corps.

"Did the maritime patrol find anything?" Lu Zheng didn't dare to make a rash decision, and needed more evidence.

"A week ago, the maritime patrol team expelled two American fishing boats trying to approach Grand Bahama Island. Other than that, there was nothing unusual—" Xiao Yong also had insufficient information.

The Bahamas is one of the three islands of the West Indies. Generally speaking, the Bahamas are considered to be an island group in the Caribbean Sea. In fact, the Bahamas are not in the Caribbean, but are located in the North Atlantic Ocean outside the mouth of the Florida Strait.

The Bahamas consists of more than 700 islands and more than 2400 reefs, with a total area of ​​13 square kilometers and a population of about 939.

After the American Revolution, some people loyal to the United Kingdom fled the United States and came to the Bahamas Islands, which led to the prosperity of the Bahamas Islands and successively established cotton plantations.

After the United States implemented "Prohibition", the Bahamas became a gathering place for alcohol smugglers.

After the United Kingdom entrusted the Bahamas to Southern Africa, the federal government of Southern Africa imposed military control on the Bahamas, gradually recovered the cotton plantations on the Bahamas, and cracked down on smuggling activities.

After the United States and Southern Africa signed a series of cooperation agreements, Southern Africa withdrew most of its troops, leaving only one battalion in the Bahamas.

Compared with more than 700 islands and more than 2400 islands and reefs, only one battalion is really stretched. Grand Bahama Island is the fourth largest island in the Bahamas, 12 kilometers wide from east to west, 24 kilometers long from north to south, with an area of ​​1373 square kilometers. The Florida Peninsula in the United States is about 96 kilometers away. There is only one company on such a large island. The situation can be imagined. It can be said that there are loopholes everywhere.

"We have just signed a series of agreements with the United States. It should not be the Americans—" Baird David, the chief executive of Grand Bahama Island, is worried. Although there are not many people on Grand Bahama Island, the sparrow is small and complete.

"Then who is it? Now it's obvious that someone set the fire on purpose. It can't be that we set fire to our warehouse, right?" Xiao Yong was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger, and Baird David hit the muzzle of the gun.

"It's not impossible. Before the facts are investigated, anything can happen." Baird David also has nowhere to vent his anger. The materials stored in these warehouses are worth millions of rand. Now whether it is intentional arson , or an accident, someone needs to be responsible for it.

"Shut up!" Lu Zheng was feeling irritable. At this time, the most important thing is to unanimously say: "Send troops to search the whole island to see if there are any clues, especially pay attention to strangers, and arrest all strangers for detailed investigation. .”

"Search the entire island?" Xiao Yong was surprised. Grand Bahama Island has a total area of ​​1373 square kilometers.

On the island, there is only one company of about 120 people.

Nima searched more than ten square kilometers alone?

This is not more than ten square meters.

"That also needs to be investigated. House-to-house and house-to-house. In addition, take this opportunity to gather everyone to live around the base and not give the enemy any chance." Lu Zheng has already sent a message to Nassau for help. The Southern African Federal Government is in Nassau. Sao has slightly more troops, two companies.

However, Nassau has always been the seat of the British Governor's Office in the Bahamas. If something like this happened on Grand Bahama Island, Nassau must also be searching the city. Whether it has the strength to support Grand Bahama Island is another matter.
