Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1554
As early as 1920, the governments of Britain and France issued a joint statement, advocating the simultaneous cancellation of the compensation claims against Germany and the debts incurred during the World War. The latter was mainly aimed at the United States and southern Africa.

In other words, it's not just the Russians who will play tricks, Britain and France have actually made preparations for cheating long ago.

That's how the "Dawwes Plan" came about.

In the past 1924, through the "Dawes Plan", Germany received a total of about 80 billion gold marks in loans from the Allied Powers led by the United States, equivalent to about 19 billion U.S. dollars, of which nearly half was borne by the Americans.

According to the "Dawwes Plan", Germany had to pay 10 billion gold marks in compensation in the first year, and the annual compensation could be adjusted according to the specific conditions of Germany.

Last year, Germany paid a total of about 5 million gold marks in reparations, only half of what was stipulated in the "Dawes Plan".

A fact that cannot be ignored is that nearly 80% of Germany's 20 billion gold mark loans came from France.

It can be seen from this that the French's insistence on "being tough on the Germans to the end" is not so firm. In the face of interests, capital will vote with their feet.

As the largest creditor country in Europe, the United States and southern Africa have the same demands in many interests. This is also an important goal of Hoover's visit to southern Africa this time, that is, to reach a tacit agreement with southern Africa to a certain extent.

To put it bluntly, it is to join forces to force Europe to pay back the money.

"According to the current situation in Germany, not to mention reparations, it is very difficult to pay interest on loans. The Congress established a committee. The conclusion is that according to the current situation, it will take about 150 years for Germany to pay reparations. This is still as long as the currency does not depreciate. Under the circumstances, in fact, the purchasing power of $100 today is only 70.00% of what it was ten years ago, so we must change.” Hoover was very dissatisfied with Britain and France, and even more dissatisfied with Southern Africa and Germany.

The United Kingdom and France want to renege on their debts, and they only rely on the United States. They have reached a reparation agreement with Southern Africa through a series of negotiations.

Southern Africa has hardly participated in the "Dawes Plan". The United States and the United Kingdom are mainly lending to Germany.

Germany is half-dead. The "Dawes Plan" loans to Germany mainly flow into major companies and enterprises in Germany. The interest rate is as high as 6.5% to 10%. not enough.

So Americans are very afraid now. In terms of defaulting on debts, Europe has a criminal record, and Americans are also afraid of losing their money.

"What are you going to do?" Rock made up his mind not to participate in the "Dawwes Project", the essence of which was to seek skin from a tiger.

The Germans are really not the honest and reliable young men advertised by later generations. In another time and space, from 1924 to 1928, the Germans paid only half of the interest. After 1928, they even refused to pay the interest. Then the famous outbreak broke out. The "Great Depression".

Knowing that this is a fire pit, but still jumping into it, is either stupid or stupid.

Of course, there is another possibility. After the United States tore up the "Dawes Plan" in Germany, it launched the "Younger Plan". On the surface, the "Younger Plan" is to prompt Germany to continue to pay reparations, but in fact it is to continue to transfuse Germany .

The Germans are not the fathers of the Americans. Why are the Americans so active?
Germany is obviously going to renege on its debts, not to mention war reparations, even the loans obtained through the "Dawwes Plan". The Americans are still rushing to send money to Germany.

It is said that 30 years later, the German economy has not been affected by the Great Depression too much. After Mustache came to power, the cowhide he boasted in those years has really come true. Germans live a happy life of nine to five beach vacations. The happiness of the American people is closely related to the blood transfusion efforts of the United States.

"Although Germany was seriously damaged during the World War, the foundation is still there. As long as there are enough funds, Germany is still capable of making reparations—" Hoover wanted to La Roque into the water, so that everyone can earn together if they have money.

Of course, even if you lose money, everyone will accompany you.

Don't ask why, the question is that investment is risky.

"Herbert, let's talk about Southeast Asia—" Rock didn't want to talk about Germany with Hoover. In recent years, southern Africa and the United States have had frequent frictions in Southeast Asia, and they have reached the brink of war several times. is an urgent problem to be solved.

"Problems have to be solved one by one." Hoover didn't want Rock to change the subject.

In other words, Hoover is deliberately avoiding Rock's question.

The frequent conflicts between southern Africa and the United States in Southeast Asia, needless to say, must be the result of the support of some people in the United States. A large part of the factor is the continuous immigration from East Asia from southern Africa.

The importance of population to a country does not need to be emphasized. Twenty years ago, the combined number of British and Boers in southern Africa was less than 20 million, but now it has rapidly expanded to nearly 200 million.

Compared with the population of [-] million in the United States, although there is still a large gap in southern Africa, the gap is not so obvious when the Africans in the neighboring countries of southern Africa are added.

The United States remains extremely vigilant about the population growth in southern Africa. Southern Africa is now mainly through East Asian immigration. According to the current trend, in another ten years, southern Africa may have more human resources than the United States. is a huge threat.

The United Kingdom implements a continental balance policy in Europe, and the United States is actually similar. The United States wants to keep Europe in chaos, so that the United States has the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

Southern Africa is far away from Europe, and the chaos in Europe will not have much impact on southern Africa. There is Canada next to the United States, and the environment in southern Africa can be said to be better than that of the United States.

Now the strength of southern Africa is comparable to that of the United States. In another ten years, no one knows how far southern Africa can develop.

Therefore, the United States is deliberately trying to break the colonial system established by Britain and France, and it might even make a wedding dress for southern Africa.

"Before June, I will visit the United States, and then I will discuss these issues with President Coolidge one by one." Rock wanted to talk to Coolidge. Hoover is now the vice president, and his status is obviously not equal to Rock.

The reason why he couldn't go to the United States until June was because Roque had just entered the Palace of Justice, and he had to arrange the affairs in southern Africa before he could make the trip.

Rock himself didn't expect that his three-axes hadn't started to be implemented, and the French, who hadn't played for a long time, caused a huge trouble for Rock.

On the day Roque entered the Palace of Justice, the French Parliament decided to attack Madagascar again. This time, Madagascar must be completely turned into a French colony.

When he heard the news, Roque was also very helpless. He didn't know how many times France had tried to colonize Madagascar.

To say that France has been defeated repeatedly. Since 1862, France has tried to colonize Madagascar at least three times. Each time, it was beaten to shame by the Madagascars. It was beaten twice by the Madagascars to admit that Madagascar was completely independent. The latest one was in the world. During the Great War, less than ten years had just passed.

To Rock's surprise, Madagascar had joined the Southern African Union as an independent country.

Although Madagascar's independent status is not recognized by France, the countries of the Southern African Union recognize Madagascar's independence, so France declares war on Madagascar again, which means declaring war on the entire Southern African Union.

Of course, the French did not go too far. Not long ago, a riot broke out in a French-run mine in Madagascar. The mine owner’s family was killed by angry miners. The French government sent a fleet back to Madagascar under the pretext of protecting the French nationals.

On February 2th, the Lunar Lantern Festival, major cities in southern Africa held colorful celebrations. On this day, the Nyasaland Eagles and Rhodesia United held a friendly match in Pretoria, officially bringing the professional league to the fore. to Nyasaland.

In the just-concluded interstate league, Nyasaland Eagles won the championship and Rhodesia United ranked second.

Stoudemire was very dissatisfied with this result, so he held an invitational tournament in Rhodesia and named the invitational tournament "King's Cup".

In order to ensure that the Rhodesia United team won the championship, Stoudemire shamelessly did not invite the Nyasaran Eagles to participate, and the Rhodesia United team won the cup smoothly.

In any case, this friendly match can be regarded as a duel between the two champions, and it still attracted great attention in Pretoria. Rock and Stoudemire also attended the match.

"Would you like to set up a lottery, the United team will definitely beat the Eagles today." Stoudemire took the initiative to provoke Rock in the box before the game. He was accompanied by Roya who had just returned from Cyprus. In a few months, Roya would To marry Arthur.

"My lord, good evening—" Roya greeted Roque obediently, and she still had to pay attention to the influence in public.

Although Arthur is already a Baron of Cyprus, his relationship with Roque is not right after all. It doesn't matter how he is called in private. In public, Roque still has to set an example.

This is the old double standard.

Roque nodded with a smile, and was very satisfied with Roya, his daughter-in-law.

The relationship between Rock and Stoudemire does not actually require marriage to maintain their relationship.

But what is rare is that Arthur and Roya are also happy with each other, and Roque and Xiaosi are also happy to see their success.

To Stoudemire's surprise, Madagascar President Robert was also in Rock's box.

"Hello, Robert, I want to teach the French a lesson!" Stoudemire is a standard southern Africanist and advocates toughness to the end against European countries.

"Don't worry, I have decided to expel all the French in Madagascar, take back the mines and plantations run by the French, and confiscate all the property of the French. How about it? Do you have any ideas?" As an excuse to return to Madagascar, Robert simply broke the boat.
