Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 301 Troublemaker

What really scares people is not the enemy, but the virus that cannot be observed by the naked eye.

The reason why Adelaide banned the circulation of people is to isolate the circulation of the virus.

In the Transvaal and Orange, Johannesburg has the lightest epidemic, Pretoria is next, and Bloemfontein is the heaviest. But Johannesburg is on the border with Bloemfontein, so Adelaide is really afraid, afraid Johannesburg was affected by Bloemfontein, and like Bloemfontein, the plague was ravaging.

If that happens, the situation in Johannesburg will be more serious than in Bloemfontein, because there are nearly [-] miners in Johannesburg. If the plague spreads among the miners, it will not only be affected in Johannesburg, but London will also be affected by the reduction in gold production It is unbearable for everyone to be affected.

So Rock is right. If the situation becomes uncontrollable, the garrison and police in Johannesburg can shoot. Even if the tragedy repeats itself, Johannesburg cannot be affected by the plague.

But shoot!

This is also an unsolvable choice. Three people including Austin Pence have just been tried and sentenced to death. This shadow hangs over all the police and garrisons in Johannesburg. On the cusp of this storm, who would dare to shoot!

Therefore, the knight's warning sound was particularly stern.

In fact, everyone was very nervous. Immediately after the knight gave the warning, someone raised a gun.

"Bastard, put down the gun, do you really want to kill me?" The sergeant was sweating profusely, and yelled out loudly.

"What should we do? We can't stop them if we don't shoot. If we shoot, we will go to court. What should we do?" Some soldiers shouted in a crying voice, which can kill people alive.

"Calm down, William, go and have a look." The sergeant didn't dare to be careless, and the hand holding the gun was shaking.

"Charles, I don't want to get the virus—" The soldiers who called William dared not go, the dividing line between Kronstad and Bloemfontein was a stream, on this side of the stream was heaven, and on the other side was hell.

While talking, the people on the other side of the creek got closer and closer, and finally reached the level of sight.

In fact, there are only [-] to [-] Boers in total, including men, women and children. The one riding a horse in the front is a police officer. If Rock is here, he will definitely recognize this police officer. Bobby from Wilcomb Bennett.

Bobby Bennett looked pretty good, at least the police uniform on his body was clean. When he came to the creek, Bobby Bennett stopped his horse and greeted the cavalry: "Hi, brother, Are you guys OK?"

"It was fine before I saw you—" Charles was finally relieved, his voice was loud, without impurities, and without lack of confidence, and he didn't cough as soon as he spoke. He didn't look like a plague patient.

"Don't worry, brother, we are not infected with the plague." Bobby Bennett smiled wryly.

"How do you prove it?" Charles dared not be careless.

Bobby Bennett was speechless. This was the biggest problem. Even if Bobby Bennett and the others were indeed not infected with the plague, Bobby Bennett and the others could not prove it.

"Brothers, you also know that Wilcom's people are dying, and we are the only ones left. We are desperate now. As long as you are willing to take us in, we are willing to give you all the horses—" Bobby Bennett is very helpless, this may be the last chance for them.

Only then did Charles notice that Bobby Bennett had hundreds of horses.

Charles knew that Wilcom had a horse trading market. Perhaps, all Wilcom could breathe was here now.

"Sir, please let us pass. We are not infected with the plague. All the people who were infected with the plague have died. We are normal."

"We don't want anything, we just want to live—"

"Please, we don't want to stay in Wilcombe to die, give us a way to survive—"

Two or thirty Boers were begging, women and children were crying, and men were throwing guns on the ground to show their attitude, including Bobby Bennett.

"Please, don't wait for death, we are not bad people, we just want to live." Bobby Bennett was heartbroken, but facing the threat of the plague, they had to do so.

In this situation, Charles really couldn't sit idly by, and the horse under his crotch unconsciously took two steps forward.

"Sir, we can't break the law—"

"Who knows if they have the plague—"

"Let's go to the doctor—"

The opinions of the cavalry were also divided, and no one was willing to take the risk.

"Officer, wait a minute, I'll send someone to a doctor." Charles wanted to help, thanks to the Bigwig Hospital, Kronstad also has a doctor.

"Please, Warrant Officer, can you let us cross the river and wait, we really don't want to stay in the Transvaal." Bobby Bennett was disheartened by the Orange government, even if there was still a little hope, Bobby Bennett was also reluctant to leave Wilcombe.

"Sir, don't disobey the order—" a cavalry reminded Charles.

"They look like they're all right." A cavalryman offered to help.

"Come on—" Charles really couldn't just sit idly by.

"Thank you!" Bobby Bennett was grateful.

"Sir, you are all good people—"

"God bless you."

"God bless South Africa—"

The Boers were overwhelmed with gratitude. It was just a small stream, and it seemed that there was great comfort in their hearts. Some people burst into tears as soon as they crossed the stream. All the men burst into tears, and even Charles' eyes were red.

On the same day, the situation was reported to Rock.

The cavalry could allow the Boers to enter the Transvaal, but the army did not have the right to resettle the Boers. To resettle these Boers, the city government of Johannesburg had to come forward.

The city government of Johannesburg is in a difficult situation.

Accepting these Boers violated the orders of the Governor General.

Do not accept these Boers, these Boers have entered the territory of Johannesburg, the cavalry temporarily placed these Boers on the border, found them tents and doctors, and sent them water and food, the doctors have determined , those Boers were indeed plague-free.

"We cannot accept those Boers, not only because of the order of the Governor's Office, but also because of the conflicts that occurred some time ago. The horses carried by the Boers are also of unknown origin, which may cause us trouble." James, the new Minister of the Interior Bernard strongly objected.

The former Minister of the Interior, Blake Nelson, was dismissed because of the municipal engineering fraud case. James Bernard became his successor.

"Driving those Boers back to Wilcomb is tantamount to sending them back to Wilcombe to wait for death. Now that we have confirmed that the Boers are not infected with the plague, it is better to find a remote farm and settle them down. In extraordinary times, every human resource is very precious." Louis Barnard, the Secretary of the Treasury, had a different opinion. He didn't hate those Boers and the horses brought by those Boers.

After receiving a loan of 750 million pounds, the farms around Johannesburg were divided up. Because the officials got the news in advance, many farms were bought by the officials. These officials have a big appetite, and some people have not even paid off. Balance payment.

The purchased farms cannot be abandoned. Mayor Philip has repeatedly emphasized that all farms must be developed within one year, so the human resources in Johannesburg are very tight now. Some officials even approached Rock, hoping to sell the farm to Rock at the original price, because only Rock has enough people to develop the farm.

Some time ago, Louis Barnard also bought a lot of farms from the city government. It has been several months now, and the farm has not moved at all, so Louis Barnard is really anxious.

"Don't forget those vampires in Bloemfontein. If we take in those Boers, they will definitely cause trouble." Marcus Beaufort was always tough.

"Director, pay attention to your wording—" Rock reminded softly, although everyone knows that the Boers are "vampires", but it's not good to say it so brazenly and spread it.

"I'm not mistaken, those Boers are damned vampires, and the expeditionary force should have exiled them to India." Marcus Beaufort insisted that for the Boers, Marcus Beaufort would never compromise .

After the "Peace Agreement" was signed, those exiled Boers also began to return to the Transvaal and Orange. This part of the Boers were stubborn rebels. After signing the compensation, I am now displaced and have no food or clothing.

When the conflict broke out some time ago, most of the guys who instigated the Boers to go to Johannesburg had this background.

After the conflict, the Bloemfontein Police Department arrested more than 100 suspects, most of whom had been exiled during the war.

"Lock, is there any problem with placing those Boers in Johannesburg?" Philip still wanted to ask Rock's opinion, after all, Rock controlled the only violent institution in Johannesburg.

"Basically no problem. Those Boers are not plague sufferers. I know Sergeant Bobby Bennett. He's a nice guy. If the Boers in Bloemfontein are looking for trouble, let them come to me. Now." Rock is not afraid of trouble, as the chief of police, Rock is the one who solves the trouble.

"Very well, the Ministry of the Interior is responsible for settling down those Boers. Locke, you have to ensure the safety of those Boers, and, keep an eye on them, and don't let them trouble us." Philip's decision is a bit contradictory, as long as Johannesburg takes in Those Boers, then those Boers are sure to be trouble.

Rock is not worried, even if the Boers don't come to Rock, Rock will go to the Boers, and right now, when the Boers come to their door, Rock has no reason not to accept it.
