Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2001 Uncrowned King
Throughout the morning, Baker had no intention of working. He was determined to return to Germany, but the "Times" only used one report to bring Baker back to reality.

There is always a gap between ideal and reality.

Now it depends on whether Baker's patriotic enthusiasm can bridge the huge gap caused by the gap.

At lunch time, Baker went to the restaurant with his colleagues.

The treatment of Rhodesia Motors is good. Employees only need to pay a small amount of money every month, and they can enjoy three meals a day and two suppers in the restaurant.

The restaurant offers a rich variety of food, including more than ten types of pastries, including pies, meat pies, steamed buns, and steamed dumplings. Baker’s favorite is scallion pancakes, which are mixed with eggs, chopped green onion, and lard, and are golden on both sides and crispy on the inside. Tender, the mouth is full of oil, and the bread is not fragrant in an instant.

There must be milk, and it’s the fresh milk just delivered in the morning, but Baker prefers to drink fruit juice, fresh fruit is also fine, anyway, it can replenish water.

I took two slices of scallion pancakes and asked for ribs. I need to cut the steak myself. It’s too weak. The ribs simmered on low heat for more than four hours are more delicious, and there are soybeans in them, so the nutrition is more balanced.

Of course, juice is also indispensable. Squeezing two oranges into a glass of juice is actually not as good as eating oranges directly from a nutritional point of view.

If squeezed into orange juice, the cellulose contained in the orange is almost depleted.

A businessman wouldn't tell you that, otherwise who would sell the juicer to.

Returning to his seat and looking at his dinner plate, Baker suddenly remembered the promise Mustache made to the Germans when he took the stage, to make the German table full of bread and milk.

But bread and milk have been eliminated from Baker's recipes.

So if he returns to Germany, can Baker get used to the current German diet?

This is a problem.

There are various topics at the dinner table. You can talk about everything from international events to family news. Germany's march into the Rhineland is a hot topic these days. It doesn't matter if the people in your own department have already discussed it.

"Last month, Schumacher in our department cried and shouted that he must return to Germany. The higher authorities had no choice but to let him go. The day before yesterday, Schumacher sent a telegram. He had begun to regret his behavior. There is no suitable candidate for Schumacher in Germany. He works in a car dealership now, and he doesn't even have a place to live—" the words of the person at the next table caught Baker's attention.

Schumacher means shoemaker in German. In Germany now, it is estimated that repairing shoes is easier to find a job than building cars.

"That guy deserves it. He insists on going back to Germany, and it's fine. He has to bring his wife and children with him. This behavior is simply brain-dead. What will happen to the children's education after they return to Germany? What will happen to their future life? But I'm afraid Schumacher is not in the mood to worry. If this problem continues under the current situation, Schumacher's children will be pushed to the battlefield by the German government before they reach adulthood."

"Human wives are not brain-dead. Schumacher divorced his wife just after he resigned. Now he lives alone with two children, and his wife and children are separated——"

Baker felt that the scallion pancakes in his hand were no longer fragrant.

Frank glanced at Baker and said nothing. If Baker had to return to Germany, Frank would not force him to stay. He would only feel sorry for Baker.

Without Baker, Frank's department will continue to operate and will not be affected much, and new people will soon take over.

"The French have begun to expand their armies, and it is estimated that an arms race will start again. I have to send a telegram to my uncle to let them come to southern Africa as soon as possible—" Werner did not give up, and continued to beat Baker.

"Isn't your uncle in London?" John was surprised, there was no need to be so anxious.

"It's not safe in London. If the French are reliable, sows will climb trees." Werner looked down on the French, which made John, who is of French descent, very angry.

"The border between France and Germany is protected by the Maginot Line, which the French government spent billions of dollars to build. It's solid." John has confidence in France. It is also a veteran colonial power and a victorious country in the last world war. There is no reason to fight. However, Germany has been developing its armaments over the years.

"Heh, France has already lost the moment it started building the Maginot Line, otherwise there would be no need to build the Maginot Line. Do you think the French leaders are stupid? If France can defeat Germany, why bother to build the Maginot Line?" The Connaught Line of Defense? Isn’t it good to have so much money to build more tanks?” Werner’s contempt for the French was from the bottom of his heart. This is the number one army in the world. Maybe even the Northern Division of Rhodesia can’t beat it. .

There is a phenomenon in commercial companies. If a certain department keeps emphasizing the importance of its own department, then this department may be the weakest in the company.

The same goes for countries. The Southern African Army never brags about its strength, but all countries in the world know that the Southern African Army is the undisputed uncrowned king.

So far, of all countries in the world, only southern Africa has standing mechanized troops.

Another uncrowned king is the navy.

Don't listen to European and American countries saying that the navy is still invincible with battleships. In fact, the role of aircraft carriers has replaced battleships and become the master of future naval warfare.

Otherwise, the latest shipbuilding plans of the United Kingdom and the United States this year will not all focus on aircraft carriers.

The French lagged behind again in this regard. The paper data of the "Richelieu" class battleship is indeed powerful, comparable to BIG7, but what's the use of being stronger? One or two "Richelieu" will not bring the French navy any The leap in strength has instead caused France to spend its already stretched naval budget where it shouldn't be used, which really made things worse.

Now even the British Royal Navy has to admit that it was right for Southern Africa not to build battleships from the beginning and to spend all its budget on aircraft carriers.

After more than ten years of development, southern Africa has accumulated huge advantages in the manufacture and use of aircraft carriers. The "city" class aircraft carrier is still the insurmountable pinnacle of aircraft carriers in various countries.

By the end of the year, "Island" class aircraft carriers will be launched one after another, and by then the southern African navy's naval advantages will be further expanded.

Let's just say that in the face of this situation, the navies of European and American countries should not panic.

As for the air force, the southern African air force does not want to compete for the number one in the world. The most advanced "Cerberus" of the United States was defeated by the "Gust" in Brazil, which was already behind in southern Africa. , The shock that this brought to European military observers was unparalleled. Unknowingly, the military gap between European countries and southern Africa has become wider and wider.

Even the United States is not an opponent in southern Africa, just ask who else——

Now we can only pray that Southern Africa and Germany will not join forces.

Otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"France has far more tanks than Germany!" William's resistance was getting weaker and weaker.

"Are you talking about the kind of tin wagons that were used during the World War? What did we use during the World War? What is it that is in service now? I feel like I'm beautifying France if I describe it as not aggressive." Werner A complete victory, this is really not comparable.

In fact, France also has new tanks in service, but they are still essentially improved versions of Renault tanks. Needless to say, compared with the latest "Tiger" tanks in southern Africa, the "Leopard" tanks can smash the latest French tanks in seconds scum.

Sometimes it is unbelievable to say that Britain and France are not bad, but compared with southern Africa, it seems that they have no awareness of taking precautions. The world war has been over for more than ten years, and the military strength of Britain and France is still at the level of The period immediately after the end of the World War.

It's not right, it's not as good as it was then, at least Britain and France had huge standing armies at that time, but they don't have them now.

Taking into account the gap between the mobilization capabilities of Britain, France, and Germany, Germany can complete the national general mobilization within three weeks, while Britain and France both need more than half a year.

Judging from this speed, if the world war breaks out again, Britain and France will not be able to complete the national mobilization at all, and will be quickly defeated by the German army.

Frank didn't participate in the discussion, he ate his food silently, stood up and left.

Baker stuffed the last piece of scallion pancake into his mouth and followed closely, leaving a second behind would be a torment for Baker.

"You heard it too, it's not a wise choice to return to Germany now." Frank still couldn't help it, he really couldn't just watch a young man like Beck jump into the fire pit.

Baker didn't speak. He still hasn't given up, but his confidence has begun to waver.

"I suggest you read some memoirs of the World War. After reading it, think about whether you can accept the cruelty of the World War." Frank has experienced the last World War, and young people like Baker have also experienced it. However, during the last World War, Baker and the others were relatively young and were better protected by the Southern African Federal Government, so they did not have a personal experience of the World War.

In other words, the feelings of young people like Baker are completely different from those of old guys like Frank.

After all, during the last world war, not only was Southern Africa not affected, but because of too many orders, it completed an economic leap, so this is not cruel, it is simply a welfare.

"Why are you all saying that the world war will definitely break out again?" Baker was still making excuses for himself.

"Ha, do we still need to discuss this issue? Britain and France will not accept the rise of Germany, and other countries also need a chaotic Europe." Frank didn't want to break the word, and he still had to save face.

The other countries that Frank mentioned must also include those in southern Africa, otherwise Frank would directly name them.

Baker didn't understand what intrigue was until now.
