Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1704 A Bunch of Mad Dogs

Just look at the ranking of "the most suitable for human habitation". Don't take it seriously. Pretoria is known as a garden city. It is like spring all year round. People who are allergic to pollen are not suitable to live in Pretoria. .

The same is true for Los Angeles. Although the level of urban construction in Los Angeles is not inferior to that of Pretoria, there is definitely a gap in the description of "the most suitable for human habitation". The "Times" is also hyping.

In the eyes of tourists from all over the world, Pretoria is already very good.

As a result, the "Times" said that there are cities in southern Africa that are better than Pretoria, so what is there to say, live in him!
Then Los Angeles ushered in another wave of tourist peaks, and Star City and Niassa Lake also became famous. The influx of tourists brought another wave of tourism consumption. The economic indicators of Los Angeles next year will definitely look good.

It's useless to look good. Nyasaland is a fiefdom of Rock, and it has a special status in southern Africa. In Nyasaland, the orders of the federal government are not as effective as those of Eagle Fort.

With the end of the Commonwealth Games, Pretoria gradually returned to calm.

Rock was in a bad mood, and Haig finally arrived at Whale Bay in southern Africa after half a month of wandering at sea.

Rock didn't go to Whale Bay to greet him, and made a clear statement of his attitude.

Buck came forward on behalf of the Federal Parliament, and Rock sent Yang Smother, who directly regarded the governor as a foreign friend.

Haig is definitely not happy, but Roque doesn't care, the governor, he is the governor if you give him face, and it's just a display if you don't give him face.

Under Kitchener's persuasion, Roque still agreed with Haig to live in the Governor's Mansion. On the day Haig arrived in Pretoria, a news broke out suddenly in the Governor's Mansion—Kitchina's cat was the The mouse catcher of the Governor's Mansion named "Brownie" was kicked out of the Governor's Mansion by Haig's dog on the day Haig entered the Governor's Mansion.

Haig raises two corgis. The war between cats and dogs has lasted for thousands of years, and the Governor's Mansion is no exception.

On the day Haig arrived in Pretoria, reporters found Brownie squatting pitifully on the wall of the Governor's Mansion. It was raining at that time, and the cats on Brownie's body were in a state of embarrassment. reporters' anger.

The next day, Pretoria newspapers published the news one after another.

"On the day Earl Haig moved into the Governor's Mansion, Brownie lost his home!" "

"The Governor's Mansion, which covers an area of ​​15 square meters, can't accommodate a cat. Our Governor-General is a bit small--"

"From the attitude towards Brownie, you can see why Governor Haig is called a butcher!" "

The reporter dared to say anything when he was bitter and mean. Although strictly speaking, Brownie, who is delicious and lazy, is not a qualified mouse catcher, but it does not hinder people's love for Brownie.

Especially the newspapers in Pretoria. When Kitchener was the governor, Brownie read the newspapers no less frequently than Kitchener.

After knowing what happened to Brownie, Rock asked Louis to take Brownie to the Palace of Justice.

Louis took Brownie's favorite dried fish to find Brownie, and found that Brownie was hiding in the tallest tree in the Governor's Mansion and hadn't eaten all day and night.

Louis often followed Rock in and out of the Governor's Mansion, and Brownie was also very familiar with Louis.

When he saw Louis, Brownie yelled aggrievedly while walking around Louis, and a female reporter next to him immediately had red eyes.

Brownie didn't stay in the Palace of Justice for too long. He ate something, drank some water, and then ran back to the fence of the Governor's Palace.

Anyone who's ever had a pet knows that brownies are waiting for kitchenner.

In the evening Rock held a welcome dinner for Haig at the Palace of Justice.

Haig's expression was not good-looking, and he didn't have the slightest joy of being a new official. He had just arrived in Pretoria, and he had offended more than half of the southern Africans before he figured out the situation. This was not a good sign.

Regarding pets, according to a survey by The Times, more than 80.00% of households in southern Africa have the habit of keeping pets, especially in farms. Almost every farm has to raise more than two South African mastiffs, which is a good thing for farmers. helper.

The scale of the dinner was not large. All the senior officials of the federal government and the Southern African Union in Pretoria were present. Ade and Philip also participated. They did not like Haig either. The African Expeditionary Force suffered heavy casualties, and Adelaide and Haig, who were then Prime Ministers of Southern Africa, were still fighting with each other.

"How is Brownie now? Is it still on the wall of the Governor's Mansion?" Ade also cared about Brownie.

"It has been sent to the hospital——" Rock certainly would not leave Brownie in the Governor's Mansion.

"Brownie is sick?" Ade was not surprised. Brownie ate and slept every day. If this continues, he will be admitted to the hospital sooner or later.

"No, send it to the marshal—"

"Then you have to leave the hospital early. Cats are not allowed in the hospital." Ade is strict with others and even stricter with himself.

Although Kitchina is hospitalized with pets and will not cause trouble to others, Ade still does not want to see Kitchina breaking the rules.

"Not yet, the marshal needs to continue to receive treatment." Rock disagreed with Kitchener's discharge from the hospital. George V had just left, and it would be too casual to be discharged immediately.

Ade shook his head to express his speechlessness, acting like the real thing, pretending that everyone else is a fool.

Fools and fools aside, anyway, just see through and don't tell the truth, and even George V didn't say anything.

This is the so-called political tacit understanding. Since Kitchener is pretending to be ill, George V will make the mistake. Otherwise, Kitchener and George V will directly tear each other apart, and the relationship between Southern Africa and the United Kingdom will also take a turn for the worse. This consequence is George V. V can not afford.

Rock is confident because of this. Don't look at the British Parliament making troubles from time to time. The idiots in the Parliament have this virtue, which will not change until the 21st century. However, there are still people who understand. Consequences of Southern Africa's rivalry.

Haig did not stay at the banquet for too long. After delivering a short inaugural speech, he left the banquet on the grounds of feeling unwell.

This is exactly what Rock wants, and Rock doesn't want to see Haig's stinky face. Some time ago, the Sultanate and East India joined the Southern African Union. The Federal Congress also passed Madagascar's application to join the Southern African Federation. , Southern Africa is about to enter a new phase.

"The world is changing, and it is at an unprecedented critical moment. Southern Africa is now a superpower. We can't rely on anyone but ourselves—" Rock's voice was not loud, but he was very powerful. Hundreds of guests He held his breath, and only Roque's voice was heard in the entire banquet hall.

"In the past 20 years, we have built a strong southern Africa from scratch. Everything in southern Africa today is inseparable from your hard work-I also hope that in the next 20 years, we will still work together and work hard to build A better southern Africa is working hard, and I would like to share this with you." Rock raised his glass, and everyone responded with a loud response, and the atmosphere suddenly burst.

The next day Rock went to the hospital to visit Kitchener, and Haig was there.

Brownie is sleeping beside Kitchener. This guy is too fat, and other cats sleep cross-legged, so he can only lie on his stomach, enjoying the caress of Kitchener while sleeping, and it is quite comfortable Snoring.

"—In recent years, the call for disarmament has become louder and louder, and military expenditures have been decreasing every year. The navy has taken more than half of it, and the air force has to buy the most advanced fighter jets. The army has only 12 poor battalions left, of which six battalions It's the Royal Guard—" Haig poured out his bitterness. After the World War, the life of soldiers became more and more difficult.

"The upper and lower houses are wrong. A strong national defense is the foundation of a country's stability. The army should not be treated like this—" Kitchener was heartbroken. A strong standing army is still necessary. If a world war breaks out, Britain will have a strong army The standing army would not rush to recruit troops after the outbreak of the world war, and send them to the battlefield after only three months of training.

Germany is better in this regard. Although Germany also urgently expanded its troops when the World War broke out, all the recruits recruited by Germany are reserve troops with service experience. The recruits recruited by Britain and France are two different things.

That's why Germany completed its war mobilization within two weeks after the outbreak of the World War, while Britain completed its general mobilization half a year after the outbreak of the World War.

During the First World War, the attacking methods of the troops were relatively primitive, and the attacking speed of the troops was very slow, so the German troops only fought as far as the suburbs of Paris.

When the next world war breaks out, the German army equipped with tanks and armored vehicles will be able to go all the way and attack France at the fastest speed. What will happen to the British and French allied forces?
Haig had no answer.

Kitchina also had no answer.

Roque has, but unfortunately France will not listen to Roque.

Just last night, in order to express its protest against Madagascar's incorporation into southern Africa, the French government blatantly recalled its ambassador to southern Africa, and the relationship between southern Africa and France took a sharp turn for the worse.

Rock is not in a hurry, he only needs one sentence to deal with France - pay back the money!
Roque is not worried about the French repudiation. If the French dare to repay the debt, Roque will dare to confiscate all the property of the French in Madagascar, and test the French colonies in Africa by the way. In short, there are many ways.

"Lock, what do you think?" Haig took the initiative to show his favor to Rock. In southern Africa, it is impossible to bypass Rock.

"Sit and watch—" Rock was indifferent, everyone was a marshal, and Rock was still a marquis, Haig could only endure it even if he was dissatisfied.

Of course Rock was not joking, he just made a joke and then said in a serious way: "The shadow of war has not gone away. To solve the problem, it still depends on the army. The two Nelson-class battleships built by the navy are enough to maintain a hundred thousand troops. Don't gentlemen know the importance of the army? It's not—"

So the British Parliament is really not aimed at southern Africa. Those MPs are arresting whoever is black, and they are a bunch of mad dogs.
