Chapter 1464 Five-Year Plan
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for Germany, which lost so much in World War I, to recover its strength in such a short period of time and provoke World War II.

In August of this year, the Deutsche mark fell from the previous 4.2 to 100 million, and by November it had fallen to 11 trillion. The German economy has completely collapsed, even if Germany is willing to accept the "Dawwes Plan" or the "Belfort Plan" However, it may take several years before Germany officially enters the repayment procedure.

"America is a robber country made up of thieves and traitors. Don't trust America at any time." Adelaide's description of the United States is in place. The United States is trying to steal world leadership from the British Empire. This does not need the United States to remind, Adelaide Also know the dangers of the United States.

On the coffee table in Ade's hand, there was a newly published "The Times", and the headline on the front page was "Don't Forget the Great American Influenza".

The flu that broke out at the end of the World War has not yet been officially identified. The United States insists that the flu broke out from Spain, so it keeps repeating the concept of "Spanish flu" on various occasions, trying to form a fait accompli.

The Spaniards did not agree with this statement. The "Times" publicly broke the news shortly after the outbreak of the pandemic. The first patient appeared in a military camp in Kansas in the United States. Later, the pandemic came to Europe with the large-scale landing of the US military in France. , And then swept the world, so almost all European countries, including Spain, believe that the pandemic should be called "American flu" is more appropriate.

On this issue, the integrity shown by The Times is heartbreaking. Every once in a while, The Times will remind readers not to forget the damage caused by the American pandemic to the whole world.

The U.S. government has repeatedly objected to the reports of The Times, but to no avail. The Times has always been known for its "fairness, freedom, and independence" and does not accept lobbying from any country or group on this issue.

"The plan proposed by C. G. Dawes has great hidden dangers, and it cannot completely solve the German problem. Once Germany regains its strength, the world war will break out again—" Rock is not pretending to be a magic stick. The "Dowes Plan" just When it was proposed, Clemenceau and Foch shouted out many times on different occasions that France would rather not pay reparations than give the Germans a chance to rise again.

There are still smart people in France, but it is a pity that smart people have retreated behind the scenes, and their influence is not as good as before. The current French President Alexandre Millerand and Prime Minister Raymond Poengale have both experienced world wars, but they have great influence on the world. German awareness is not sufficient.

Perhaps Alexander Millerand and Raymond Poengale believe that even if Germany provokes a world war again, the Justice League can still defeat Germany like the last world war.

The reality of France also determines that Alexander Millerand and Raymond Poengale have an increasing demand for German indemnities. Even if Germany re-emerges, it is a matter of the future. The current situation in France, if there is no indemnity from Germany , France will remain sluggish.

In short, it is all kinds of drinking poison to quench thirst.

"Even if the world war breaks out again, it won't have much impact on us in southern Africa." Adelaide has completely become a southern African. In the past, Adelaide would probably say: This will not have much impact on our British Empire .

"Another world war won't do us any good—" Rock said insincerely, and some things still couldn't be said too bluntly.

In the First World War, southern Africa made a lot of profits. Not only did it create a sense of presence in Europe, but it also successfully acquired Southwest Africa, Tanganyika, and the Mesopotamia. Southern Africa also became Europe's Creditors, before the outbreak of the World War, I am afraid that even Rock did not think of it.

Another world war is of course good for southern Africa. Southern Africa is now qualified to fully participate in world affairs, but it has not yet had the right to decide. Britain and France still play the key roles.

If it happens again, Britain's right to speak will continue to be weakened, and France will directly lose its right to speak. This part of the right to speak is what Rock is seeking.

This is why Roque left London. Although Roque has not communicated with American capitalists and politicians on this issue, it can be regarded as a long-term friendship.

Aren't the Americans going to give blood to the Germans? Go ahead. Southern Africa is now accumulating food and building walls. Let's see who is the final winner.

"Come on, Locke, can you be honest with us two old guys? Another world war, I'm afraid you'll laugh your ass off." Kitchener couldn't understand Rock's pretentiousness, and Ade smiled and said nothing. They are all mature.

In the evening, Roque stayed at the Governor's Mansion for dinner as usual. Kitchener's fishing skills have improved a lot recently, and he no longer needs to buy fish from the market to comfort himself. He couldn't finish the fish he caught, so he simply dug a pond in the Governor's Mansion to raise them. with.

Rock flattered Kitchina's fishing skills in various ways, and Kitchina was delighted to shoot, and immediately put Rock's pretentiousness behind him, and the guests and hostess enjoyed the meal.

The next day, Roque appeared in the Palace of Justice and reported to Philip the results of the trip to Europe.

"It's hell if the French agree." Philip still knew the grievances between France and Germany very well.

"In order to better develop southern Africa, let's formulate a five-year plan—" Rock knew the disadvantages of democratic politics, and he didn't want to see southern Africa repeat the same mistakes.

The biggest disadvantage of democratic politics is that there is no continuity of policy. Take southern Africa as an example. The five-year general election determines that the leaders of southern Africa will be changed frequently. Now it seems that the problem is not serious. From Adelaide to Philip, The transition of power has been smooth, and there has been no change in the order overnight, but it is difficult to say after a long time. Looking at France now, a prime minister is changed in a few months, and even God can't save France.

The biggest advantage in Southern Africa right now is that the Liberal Party is the only one. For the time being, there is no second political party that can compete with the Liberal Party. This can at least ensure that the prime ministers are all from the Liberal Party, and the policy continuity is still good.

But maybe in the future, Stoudemire is carrying out drastic reforms to the Progressive Party after he became governor of the Cape. Cape people are regaining confidence in the Progressive Party, which is a huge threat to the Liberal Party.

At the same time, the Nyasaland Party is also threatening the Liberal Party. Although the Nyasaland Party is based on Nyasaland, its influence has already broken through Nyasaland, and it has taken root in all states in southern Africa. Basically, as long as there is Where there are Chinese, there is the Nyasaland Party.

In the recent congressional re-election, the Nyasaland Party won 25 seats and became the second largest party in the Southern African Congress. Although the relationship between the Nyasaland Party and the Liberal Party is very good and they are currently keeping pace, the future is also uncertain.

"What do you mean?" Philip was a little sensitive to the time limit of "five years".

Prime Ministers in Southern Africa serve five-year terms.

"In order to ensure the continuity of the policy, we need to formulate a plan and then implement it unswervingly, so that southern Africa will have better development." Rock's trip to Europe this time has touched a lot, and southern Africa is still on the rise Therefore, we cannot rest on our laurels like Britain and France.

Perhaps for many southern African officials, it is already a miracle that southern Africa can achieve the current results, and it is impossible to do better, so they can take a proper rest.

But other countries did not rest. The Germans were trying their best, the Americans were eyeing them, and there was no reason to slack off in Southern Africa. Since Southern Africa had no goals, Rock would find a way to set a goal for Southern Africa.

"If you are dissatisfied with Vasco da Gama, then just change the mayor—" Philip's situation is also small, and these two things can be linked together.

It is also understandable, after all, Philip does not know the power of the five-year plan.

"It's two different things. The pollution caused by the textile group is indeed serious. It's normal for the Johannesburg city government to want to move out. Many of our officials have already begun to sleep on their laurels. We need to spur them on with higher demands. "Rock is really not so narrow-minded.

In the past 1921, Southern Africa had a population of 4000 million, and its GNP exceeded 140 billion rand for the first time, which was about the same as that of the United States, which had a population of more than 736 million in 1921.

Of course, this problem cannot be calculated in this way. After all, the African workers employed by enterprises in southern Africa have not been counted in the total population of southern Africa, so this part of the data is overflowing.

Another data is that the UK's gross national product in 1921 was 49 billion pounds, a drop of nearly 18.00% compared with the previous year.

For most southern African officials, this data is already very satisfactory.

Rock is also very satisfied, but unlike most southern African officials, Rock knows that Southern Africa still has potential and can be further tapped, so Rock proposed a five-year plan.

"What are you going to do?" Philip still attaches great importance to Rock's suggestion. To put it bluntly, Rock is willing to come to Philip to give Philip face, otherwise Rock can bypass Philip to realize this plan.

Don't forget that the speaker of the Southern African Congress is Buck. Even if Philip disagrees, Rock can achieve his goal through Congress.

"On the basis of this year, the average annual economic growth rate will increase by more than 20%. We will produce more and more advanced commodities. While striving to seize the Commonwealth market, we will dump them all over the world to prepare for the next world war." Get ready, the "Contract of Versailles" did not bring peace to the world, and wars will still break out frequently in the next 50 years, or even 20.00 years." Rock is not alarmist, [-]% is actually not too much, during the World War , the economic growth rate of Southern Africa is above [-]%.
