Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2163 The gap is so big that it makes people shut up
Xu Xiu never expected that the British with a high nose bridge and deep eye sockets would actually fake their records.

If someone is interested in statistics, they will find that Germany has lost all aircraft and tanks since the outbreak of the European War, and some German troops have been wiped out as many as three times.

This is not surprising, the war has progressed to the most brutal level, and the troops will be reorganized when they are exhausted, and it is normal to use the previous designation.

This is also traditional.

In the last World War, according to British statistics, Germany lost a total of 1800 million people during the war, which is equivalent to the death of all men of German age.

I still remember that at the end of the last world war, even children were sent to the battlefield in Germany. Looking at it this way, the number of 1800 million still has a certain scientific basis.

Of course, Xu Xiu felt very complicated.

Once upon a time, the British Empire came out with its own BGM and protagonist aura.

now-

Xu Xiu actually doesn't know much about Britain.

But as far as the current superficial understanding is concerned, in Xu Xiu's mind, the aura of the protagonist of the British Empire has automatically faded, and the built-in BGM has also changed from "God Save the Queen" to "Mustache Has Only One Egg".

The song "Mustache Has Only One Egg" was created using the tune of "Colonel Porgy March".

On the night of August 8, the German army bombed London again as usual, dispatching more than 14 bombers.

This is probably Goering's preparation for the Southern African Expeditionary Force. He wanted to let the Southern African Air Force who had just arrived in the UK know how powerful the Luftwaffe was through the bombing of London.

Don Juan and Xu Xiu were not in a hurry.

Dividing combat areas is a very complicated matter. The British Air Force wanted the Southern African Air Force to take over the defense of the London airspace, but Don Juan refused on the grounds that the Southern African Air Force had just arrived and needed time to familiarize themselves with the terrain.

This reason is very good. If fighter jets in southern Africa want to take off into the air, they must at least know the exact location of the field airport.

And Xu Xiu also needs time to form his own combat command.

After learning the news that Xu Xiu was going to set up a combat command, Major General Parker offered to Xu Xiu that he could provide all the help Xu Xiu needed.

everything!
Major General Parker may have misunderstood the word "everything".

Xu Xiu did not reject Major General Parker's good intentions. The establishment of a combat command always requires a venue. Xu Xiu did not want the combat staff officers of the Southern African Air Force to go underground to be mice like the British Air Force combat staff officers.

Of course, the available resources in Xu Xiu's hands are no less than those of Major General Parker.

Even better.

After learning about Xu Xiu's needs, Major General Parker found an abandoned dilapidated factory for Xu Xiu. The factory contained warehouses, workshops, offices and dormitories. According to Major General Parker's understanding, it perfectly met all Xu Xiu's requirements.

Now Xu Xiu can confirm.

Major General Parker had indeed misunderstood "everything".

So Xu Xiu sent a telegram to the mainland.

Soon a professional manager of Rand Bank got in touch with Xu Xiu.

"General Xu Xiu, hello, I am George, the business manager of Rand Bank."

George is a young man, neatly dressed and well-mannered. When he looked at Xu Xiu, his eyes were full of envy.

"I used to want to be admitted to Nyasaland Army Academy and become an honorable army officer. Unfortunately, my health was not good and I didn't meet the requirements of Nyasaland Army Academy." Major General Parker was surprised by George's words.

The Rand Bank is strong, and George can be a business manager at a young age. Not to mention the future, the future of money must be bright.

In the UK, the treatment of professional military officers is far from that of bank practitioners.

"When you work at Rand Bank, you are also contributing to the federal government of Southern Africa, and it is more important than me." Xu Xiu smiled. In Southern Africa, the treatment of professional military officers is no worse than that of bank employees, and their social status higher.

Even if you go to the bank to withdraw money, in southern Africa, not to mention military officers, even ordinary soldiers can jump in line.

Not only will other people in line not object, but those in the front will voluntarily give up their seats.

Change to a bank worker.

I'm sorry, why do you always go there, just line up honestly, if you dare to jump in line, you will be sprayed with doubts about your life by the southern Africans who abide by the rules.

In southern Africa, soldiers can jump in line as part of the rules.

"No, no, general, I'm not working for Rand Bank, I'm working for Lord Nyasaland—" George re-introduced himself, opened the briefcase he was carrying, and took out a stack of photos for Xu Xiu to choose.

"The headquarters said that the expeditionary force needs a combat command center, and I don't know what your specific needs are, so I brought some more materials—" George spread the photos he brought on the table, and Xu Xiu suddenly fell into a choice Difficulty.

In the photos brought by George, there are antique castles, manors with beautiful scenery, and tall and solid modern buildings all made of marble or granite.

Xu Xiu didn't know where these photos were.

Major General Parker was a native of London.

So after George took out the photo, Major General Parker was directly shocked.

"This is the Black family's manor in Salford. I don't think Duke Black will agree to use this manor as the combat command of the Southern African Expeditionary Force—"

"This is the Lady Brewster Hotel in Chelsea. This building has a history of 400 years. London is bombed by the Luftwaffe every night. It is not safe to set up the combat command here."

"This, is this the Earl of Carrick's castle in Stanwell, it seems to be royal property—"

Royal property!

Xu Xiu looked at George with a puzzled expression.

How to put it, the British royal family may be able to give up their surname, but it sounds unreliable to give private property to the Southern African Expeditionary Force as a combat command.

"No, no, these are now Lord Nyasaland's property, private property. My job is to take care of these private properties for Lord Nyasaland. These are just some of them. If you feel inappropriate, General, there are others The place can be chosen." George solemnly declared that private property is sacred and inviolable, and this must not be mistaken.

Speaking of which, since the last world war, Roque has indeed acquired a lot of industries in Europe, and even Roque himself doesn't know how many.

So purely in terms of financial resources, it is really not a big deal to take out one or two manors or castles to let the Southern African Expeditionary Force form a combat command.

Not only the air force, but the army and navy must also form their own headquarters.

In the future, a joint headquarters may be established, and more venues will be needed.

"This castle, can you introduce it in detail?" Xu Xiu immediately took a fancy to the royal castle.

The castle itself is a military building. Needless to say, its geographical location must be easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The castle of the royal family has more symbolic meaning in the military aspect, and the natural environment certainly has nothing to say.

Winter in London is tough, not just the climate, but also the air quality.

Xu Xiu doesn't want to be a humanoid haze remover.

"You are really discerning. This is a castle covering an area of ​​15000 square meters. It has a history of nearly a thousand years. The castle is located on a 50-foot-high hill, only 40 kilometers away from London. The castle has three floors, excluding Including the basement, the height of the tower is 45 meters, and there is an artificial lake covering an area of ​​about 2.5 square kilometers next to the castle. This and the nearby forest of nearly 10 square kilometers are part of the castle and are used to transform it into a combat headquarters. It’s suitable, and there’s even room to build a field airport here, and if you choose this place, I can help you contact a construction company.” George started the sales mode and talked endlessly, knowing all the data by heart.

"There is no need for a construction company, we have our own construction team." Xu Xiu became more and more satisfied, and immediately made a decision.

Major General Parker's expression was extremely complicated.

The Earl of Carrick is one of the titles of the abdicated Edward VIII, the Duke of Windsor.

So this castle was once the property of the Duke of Windsor.

It is said that the Duke of Windsor and his wife are traveling in Switzerland. After France gave up resistance, Switzerland has been surrounded by the Axis powers. The Duke of Windsor is not worried about falling into the hands of the Germans.

I should still be worried, after all, everyone knows the gossip between the duchess and a certain German minister, and the duke is also afraid that they will continue their relationship.

Therefore, the combat headquarters of the Air Force of the Southern African Expeditionary Force in the future will be this beautiful castle.

The British Air Force, which is really fighting at home, has its operational headquarters located 50 feet underground.

Major General Parker is now beginning to wonder if the British Air Force is fighting away.

I have to say that the southern African military is indeed rich and powerful.

But then Major General Parker knew what real wealth and power were.

In the combat command center of the British Air Force, light bulbs are used to represent combat units.

The Southern African Air Force directly uploaded the video, using an entire wall of display screens to form a huge screen. The staff in the command center can intuitively understand what is happening on the front line.

This technique is not difficult to implement.

The key is integration.

Compared with the original Big Mac, the cameras used for live broadcasting are now smaller, more compact, and the pictures are smoother and more delicate.

Southern Africa has already installed artillery on bombers, and it is not difficult to install cameras for live broadcasts on aircraft.

As for the display.

Since the invention of television, the development of display screens has been changing rapidly, from the size of a palm at the beginning to 14 inches.

So here comes the problem.

How many 14-inch displays are needed to form a huge screen on an entire wall?
And there are a total of six such screens.

When Major General Parker learned that the price of such a wall display was comparable to that of a squadron of fighter jets, Major General Parker completely closed himself off.
