Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 328 24 hour

Although Dennis Wilde is British, the main business of Imbi Rubber Company is in the Congo Free State, so Dennis Wilde's position is not so obvious.

Rock still remembered that the last time Dennis Wilde came to Rock, the purpose was not to mediate the conflict between Nyasaland and the Congo Free State.

Rock can actually understand why Dennis Wilde is at both ends, because Nyasaland's progress in the Congo Free State has exceeded Dennis Wilde's expectations. Dennis Wilde really wanted to profit from chaos at the beginning, but now, Nyasaland's progress in the Congo Free State may endanger the interests of the Imbi Rubber Company, so Dennis Wilder must make a choice.

A very simple reason is that under the rule of Leopold II in the Congo Free State, the Imbi Rubber Company was able to obtain a lot of benefits through rubber plantations.

However, once Nyasaland takes control of the Congo Free State, it is hard to say whether the Imbi Rubber Company can keep its current interests, let alone fish in troubled waters.

After all, under Rock’s rule, there is no need for Africans to exist, and if the Imbi Rubber Company hires Chinese workers, it must fully guarantee the interests of Chinese workers. This is actually not worth the candle for the plantation owners. The profit is far lower than that of gold mines, and the plantation owners in the Congo Free State cannot afford the high salaries of the Transvaal miners.

The key is to be able to afford it, and not willing to give it!

"You can convey my opinion to the Belgians. As for how to choose, it depends on the Belgians. I will leave Nyasaland today and return to Johannesburg. If you have anything to do, you can go to General Anton." Rock decided The keynote is to let Anton talk slowly with the Belgian. Anyway, Rock is not in a hurry, and the Belgian is in a hurry now.

The Rhodesian Northern Division was established, and all the Nyasaland militias had a formal establishment. Even temporary members of the militia became the reserve of the Rhodesian Northern Division.

As the head of the Nyasaland militia, Anton's current military rank is major general, and he also serves as the deputy commander of the northern division of Rhodesia, and the division commander is Stoudemire.

Stoudemire envied Rock's title, and Rock didn't envy Stoudemire's South African company. In Rhodesia, the South African company enjoys contracting, organizing local governments, forming the army and police, doing business, setting up banks and joint-stock companies, building roads, Privileges such as the exploitation of land, forests and mineral resources, which basically cover all aspects of diplomacy, military, politics, economy, etc. It can be said that the rights of the South African company in Rhodesia, and the governor's office of Biad in Transit Watts and Orange have even greater rights.

That's why Anton can casually become the major general of Rhodesia's northern division without even having to say hello to London. This is Rhodesia's internal affairs.

To put it bluntly, if Roque had the conditions of Stoudemire, then Roque would be able to become the overlord of Africa without going to World War I.

"My lord, the Belgians are still in Little Rock. It's not appropriate for you to go back to Johannesburg now—" Dennis Wilder didn't dare to let Rock go. With Rock's departure, the negotiation is basically out of date.

"Of course it's appropriate. I'm still the chief of the Johannesburg Police Department. It's not good if I don't stay in Johannesburg for a long time. I don't want to dereliction of duty." Rock is serious. Johannesburg really needs Rock. It's been several months, and Rock is here The Johannesburg family has a big business. If it were someone else, they would have been expelled hundreds of times without knowing it.

Of course, at night, Rock and Phyllis took the train back to Johannesburg, and Dennis Wilde and the Belgian were handed over to Anton.

Although Roque left Nyasaland, Roque's order to Lala was not cancelled.

After receiving Rock's order, Lala immediately launched an attack on Lubumbashi.

Just like how the Yao people dealt with the Portuguese before, before this, Lala's troops had besieged Lubumbashi for more than a month. For more than a month, Lubumbashi's external communication was completely cut off, relying entirely on the city's stored Materials are needed to maintain morale.

Lubumbashi is the largest Belgian stronghold in the southern part of the Congo Free State. Lala besieged Lubumbashi but did not attack it, and did not let go of the strongholds around Lubumbashi.

In the past month, Lala's troops have wiped out the strongholds within a radius of 100 kilometers around Lubumbashi. Except for a few small strongholds on the border between the Congo Free State and Rhodesia that have not had time to attack, the southern Congo Free State In the salient, there were no Belgian formed troops.

The current Yao people are no longer comparable to the Yao people lost in Portuguese East Africa. During the period of Portuguese East Africa, the Yao people did not even have heavy machine gun shooters. Only the Zulu people in the Transvaal could have heavy firepower. Now that Rock has transferred most of the Zulu people from Portuguese East Africa to Madagascar, the Yao people finally have their own heavy machine gun shooters.

However, although there are, there is still a huge gap between Yao heavy machine gun shooters and Zulu heavy machine gun shooters, not to mention the Nyasaland people who can play heavy machine guns well.

Lala used to work in the Johannesburg Police Station and also visited the training of the Nyasaland militia. In this regard, Lala is really ashamed. The heavy machine gun controlled by the shooter can easily suppress three to four heavy machine guns controlled by the shooter of the Yao nationality heavy machine gun.

Lala feels that the Nyasaran heavy machine gun shooter is still reserved. If it is in actual combat, the gap should be even greater.

If you think about it, you can understand that heavy machine gun shooters also need bullet training technology. Nyasaland has an arsenal, and bullets can be used casually, so Nyasaland's heavy machine gun shooters can be fully trained, just like the Johannesburg Police Department. Same as the police.

The Yao people can't do it. Although Nyasaland donated a batch of heavy machine guns to the Yao people, Nyasaland did not send bullets, so the Yao people's heavy machine gun shooters lacked practical training.

Fortunately, this time, the troops of the Yao tribe entered the Congo Free State, all of which were paid by Nyasaland. Otherwise, relying solely on the power of the Yao tribe, there is really no way for the slag to send troops to the Congo Free State.

It was also for this reason that Lala fully realized the real gap between the Yao army and the Nyasaland army.

It is not bullets at all, nor heavy machine guns, nor the quality of soldiers. Compared with the Nyasaland army, the biggest gap between the Yao army and the Nyasaland army is logistics. The gap is so huge that Lala despairs.

After Nyasaland entered the state of war, the logistics of the army was immediately raised to the highest level. This highest level basically includes unlimited canned food, bread, and biscuits. One pack of cigarettes per person per day, one piece of chocolate per person about 3.5 ounces per day, fruit On the one hand, the supply of bananas can be opened up, and even the rare apples have one per person per day.

In addition, each person has 3.5 ounces of banana wine per day. This is the favorite thing of Yao warriors. As long as they drink banana wine, Yao warriors can fight to Kinshasa in one go.

These seemingly inconspicuous cans, bread, and biscuits are actually industrial products. All the logistical materials provided by Nyasaland, except bananas can be seen everywhere, and anything else, even toilet paper for the Yao people. It's all luxury.

There are really many Yao warriors who are reluctant to use toilet paper. Many Yao warriors use toilet paper as napkins and even wrap wounds.

In the past, when Lala knew that Rock supported the founding of the Yao people, she had some ambitions.

Now that these ambitions are gone, the huge industrial gap is enough to smooth out any gap in human resources.

What's more, Nyasaland has no shortage of people, which is a fact that everyone knows.

Knowing all this, Lala gave up completely. In fact, it is not bad to hang out with the Nyasaland people. At least the Nyasaland people treat Africans much better than white people treat Africans. Lala was in the expeditionary force. When serving in the military, let alone chocolate, I had never even seen canned food.

"We only have 24 hours - no, there are still 22 hours left, so gentlemen, we must hurry up and bring down Lubumbashi. Not long ago, the Rhodesian Northern Division wiped out 7000 troops in three hours. White mercenaries, now there are less than 2000 white people left in Lubumbashi, and there are many old and weak women and children. It’s time to show the bravery of our Yao people. Remember my words, you can rob, burn, and even kill. But you must not insult the white man, otherwise I will cut off his lifeblood with my own hands, let's go!" Lala finally emphasized.

The reason why the British do not trust Africans is that apart from the laxity and laziness of Africans, military discipline is a very serious problem.

Before white people came to Africa, there were countless African tribes on the African continent. These tribes also attacked each other and fought for thousands of years.

Generally speaking, after a tribe defeats another tribe, all the adult men in the defeated tribe will be killed, and then the women and children will be taken away, and these women and children will become the trophies of the victor.

Africans have become accustomed to all this, so the women and children of the defeated tribes will not resist and accept their fate calmly.

Rock knows the problems of Africans, so Rock does not manage Africans directly, but relies on Africans to manage Africans.

This is very effective, because Africans may be obedient to whites, but they are extremely submissive to Africans, because they know that if they make mistakes, the Africans who manage them will not hesitate to kill them.

"Victory! Victory!! Victory!!!"

The officers of the Yao nationality got the order and shouted slogans to assemble their troops.

Lubumbashi in the distance is as helpless as a shivering sheep among wolves.
