Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1591 Face or Money
Joining the Non-War Pact will not bring much security guarantee to the Persian Empire, and the IQ of relying on a contract for national security cannot be a king.

Of course, it cannot be said that the Non-War Convention is useless at all. Even southern Africa is bound by the Non-War Convention. Proactively provoking war and violating the Non-War Convention must be unanimously punished by all signatories of.

The magic is in the "activeness".

The Non-War Convention does not expressly stipulate the nature of war, and the provisions on sanctions are also unclear, which leaves a back door for all signatories.

If you can't take the initiative to provoke, is it a breach of contract to be passive?You can't let the knife rest on your neck and you can't resist.

In terms of the nature of the war, if war has not been declared, is it considered a war?

Port Elizabeth is not yet an official territory of Southern Africa. If a war breaks out between Port Elizabeth and the Persian Empire, does it count as Southern Africa's participation?

What's more, there are agents.

So if Lisa Khan hoped that the Amendment Pact would bring security to the Persian Empire, then Lisa Khan would be wrong.

Even so, Rock didn't want Lisa Khan to sign the Amendment Pact.

Like the Versailles Treaty, the fundamental purpose of the Non-War Convention was to establish a system dominated by southern Africa and the United States. This system did not conflict with the systems established by the Versailles Treaty and the Washington Naval Treaty, but complemented each other.

After the member states sign, disputes must be resolved peacefully, and the possibility of war is greatly reduced. If anyone dares to breach the contract, then Southern Africa and the United States will take action.

In this way, the question arises, what if Southern Africa and the United States default on the contract?
Sorry, as the sponsoring country of the Non-War Convention, the right to interpret all the provisions of the Non-War Convention lies with Southern Africa and the United States, so it is up to Southern Africa and the United States to decide whether to violate the contract.

While Southern Africa initiated the Non-War Pact, Roque had another purpose, to persuade countries to implement an arms ban on the Asia Minor peninsula and bring peace to the Asia Minor peninsula as soon as possible.

Counting from 1918, the World War has ended for seven years.

After the end of the world war, the participating countries were exhausted and ushered in a short period of peace.

The Asia Minor peninsula is an exception. At the Paris Peace Conference, the Ottoman Empire was divided among various countries. After the signing of the Treaty of Sèvres, 40 countries were established on the territory originally belonging to the Ottoman Empire, and Constantinople was occupied by the League of Nations. , the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus became the demilitarized zone, under the jurisdiction of the Straits Management Council, and the Ottoman Empire became the most damaged country in the world war.

In the current Asia Minor Peninsula, there are two powerful forces, one is Kemal, the other is Said, and there are many other unknown small forces. Compared with before the war, the Ottoman Empire lost 60% of its territory, 75% population, and nearly 99% of the wealth.

The Asia Minor peninsula, which lost its Black Sea estuary, is no longer attractive to Britain and France. At the end of the World War, Britain and France were still trying to maintain the order of their respective protectorates, but they gave up one after another because the gains outweighed the losses, and the Ottomans in Asia Minor peninsula Fend for itself.

In this situation, the biggest profits are various trading companies. Years of wars have caused the Asia Minor Peninsula to lose almost all production capacity, and arms are more completely dependent on imports. Rock’s purpose is to cut off the supply of arms to the Asia Minor Peninsula, without weapons and ammunition , If you want to fight again, you can only swing the machete.

To Roque's embarrassment, just after Roque made this suggestion to Austin and Coolidge, Austin and Coolidge looked at Roque a little strangely.

It's a bit embarrassing. Most of the companies in the world that are most active in sending weapons to the Asia Minor Peninsula are from southern Africa, so that all parties in the Asia Minor Peninsula are using weapons and ammunition provided by Southern Africa. All the ammunition has been emptied. It is said that the active-duty troops in southern Africa have completed their refitting. Now that the arms sale is banned, you are the co-author of the good and bad guys.

Rock is not embarrassed. On the issue of the Asia Minor peninsula, the role played by southern Africa is exactly the same as that of the United States in the early days of the World War.

So Austin may be qualified to despise Rock, but where does Coolidge have the qualifications?

"The chaos in the Asia Minor peninsula has seriously affected the peace and stability of the surrounding areas, and has also brought great trauma to the Ottomans. It is time to end all of this. We should maintain world peace—" Rock seemed to be possessed by God, without blinking his eyes a bit.

Austin and Coolidge were still scornful.

Look around the Asia Minor peninsula, Russia to the north, the Demilitarized Zone of the Strait to the west, the Persian Empire to the east, Cyprus and Mesopotamia to the south—

Coincidentally, Cyprus and Mesopotamia are both spheres of influence in southern Africa.

Will Roque worry about Russia and the Persian Empire?
Don't be funny, Rock is worried about the impact that the Asia Minor Peninsula will have on Cyprus and the Mesopotamia.

Of course, removing these details, Rock's proposal is still very valuable.

"It's so embarrassing of you—" Austin was rude to Rock, and couldn't understand Rock's behavior of pretending to be a saint.

And Coolidge, don't go, you Americans are not clean either.

"What else? Let the Ottomans continue to fight? I don't care, anyway, the Asia Minor peninsula is far away from southern Africa." Rock doesn't care, can shameless people become hooligans.

When it comes to colonialism, the Anglo-Saxons are the ancestors in this respect, so let's all stop laughing at each other, and no one is much nobler than anyone else.

"Indeed, we can't let the Asia Minor Peninsula continue to be in chaos—" Coolidge had a positive attitude. The Asia Minor Peninsula was actually far away from the United States. The fundamental reason why Coolidge was so active was his right to speak in international affairs.

If you want to expand your influence, you must actively participate in international affairs, regardless of whether you have interests or not.

Look at the former European military police, because they had no say in international affairs, now they have almost no sense of existence.

Austin didn't speak, and his resentful look probably didn't mean he didn't have any objections, but that it was inconvenient to say something in front of Coolidge.

Sure enough, after the dinner was over, Austin did not leave Cherry Blossom Lake, and stayed directly at Rock's manor.

I have to say that although the Japanese are not very good, the cherry blossoms are still very beautiful.

Rock's manor is basically surrounded by cherry blossoms. There are slate-paved walks around the island along the peninsula. The street lights beside the walkway exude warm and soft neon lights. These neon lights were also invented by Nikola Tesla. The wires are buried in the Underground, there are speedboats patrolling back and forth in the waters around the peninsula, and the safety is guaranteed.

Rock and Austin sat on the balcony on the second floor and drank tea. It was not English black tea that had changed flavor, but standard southern African green tea. Although Austin didn't like the taste of green tea, Austin was willing to try it.

"It's a bit astringent, it doesn't taste good, why add some milk?" Austin also suggested.

"Tea with milk can still be tea? Bitterness is not the taste of green tea, but the taste of life. This is the connotation of tea culture—" Rock casually said, he was eating supper, and he was not full from the dinner just now.

Austin thought what Roque said made sense, and then silently savored the taste of life.

"What did you want to say just now?" Luo Ke finished his supper, feeling a little unfinished.

Forget it, eating too much at night is not conducive to digestion, so be restrained.

"Let's talk about Khuzestan—" Austin still didn't give up.

"Do you have any suggestions?" Rock didn't want to talk about this issue, so he didn't use "opinion".

"We jointly set up an oil company to develop the oil in Khuzestan." Austin also had no choice.

Austin can't be blamed for being entangled repeatedly. Although Adan's supply is sufficient, it is better to control such an important lifeline resource as oil in one's own hands.

The United Kingdom also tried every means for oil, jointly established Royal Shell with the Dutch, and established Anglo-American Petroleum with the Americans. After a round, it still found that southern Africa is the most reliable, Anglo-South Petroleum?Royal Adam?

It doesn't matter, as long as there is England.

"Who told you that Khuzestan has oil—" Rock denied it at all.

"Locke, it's boring if you say that—" Austin was very dissatisfied. Don't forget that Port Elizabeth was bought from England. God knows how much the hearts of the British feel when they see Port Elizabeth now.

But Roque didn't buy or sell by force, and you can't blame others for what you want. The fault is that the territory of the British Empire is too large. Tens of millions of square kilometers are lost, and they don't care about Port Elizabeth.

So what if you care, can you snatch it back from Rock?

Don't forget that Rock is the Marquess of Nyasaland in the British Empire. If the British government dares to grab it, let's not talk about whether it can be taken back. The entire aristocratic class in the UK has something to say.

If you rob Port Elizabeth of the Marquess of Nyasaland today, will you rob the Duke of Westminster's City of Westminster tomorrow?On this issue, the British nobles are very united.

Compared with the Duke of Westminster, Rock is nothing. The city of Westminster is the fiefdom of the Duke of Westminster, and Buckingham Palace is in Westminster. Strictly speaking, the kings of England are all Westminster The Duke's tenant.

Speaking of the Duke of Westminster, the Eaton Manor where he lives covers an area of ​​4400 hectares. If you have no idea about this area, you can compare it with the Forbidden City.

The Forbidden City covers an area of ​​only 72 hectares.

So don't look at Rock, who is always at Eagle Fort, Sakura Lake, etc. Compared with the real British nobles, Rock is still far behind.

"You tell me who told you that Khuzestan has oil, and I will agree to jointly establish an oil company." Rock drew his salary from the bottom of the pot. If he wanted to get benefits, he had to pay some price first.

Austin is very entangled, this question is difficult to answer, is it for face or for money——
