Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 578 Countermeasures

Unlike Nyasaland, which can advance and retreat freely, the Germans have no retreat now, and if they take a step back, they will lose the entire Tanganyika. This is absolutely unacceptable to the Germans, so Erich von Falkenhayn will definitely not stop it. Alva Butler got revenge on the Tanganyikas, as Alva Butler said, the British used it during the Boer War, and it worked, so Erich von Fa Jin Han not only did not stop, but also looked forward to Alva Butler can create a miracle.

It's just that Erich von Falkenhayn probably didn't notice that the reason why Britain did that during the Boer War was because the total population of the Boers was only 44, and they couldn't stand such cruel consumption. Only after the British retaliated, they went to the Cape to persist in guerrilla warfare, staying away from the Transvaal and Orange, and did not give Britain a reason to target ordinary Boers.

The Fort Honor troops in Tanganyika are not Tanganyika people in essence, but Tatera people from the Congo Free State, so the Fort Honor troops probably don't care about the Tanganyika German army retaliating against Tanganyika As a commoner, Erich von Falkenhain was doomed to disappointment.

Despite Lawrence Elsey's objections, Alva Butler exacted brutal revenge on the Tanganyika near Lake Niassa.

To put it bluntly, all aggressors are the same in this kind of thing. When Germany retaliates against the Tanganyika people, it is also the standard "Three Alls Policy". Burn them all, and use explosives to blow up those that cannot be burned. Needless to say, as for people, only able-bodied adults have the opportunity to enter concentration camps for hard labor, and children and the elderly are not even given such opportunities.

As soon as the news came out, newspapers in Britain and France started a new round of hype about the atrocities committed by the German army in Tanganyika.

Of course, the German media was not to be outdone, so the shady things about Britain during the Boer War were also published in newspapers by the Germans to criticize the British government.

It's a pity that Germany and Britain and France are different in size. German newspapers can basically only be sold in Germany and cannot go abroad, while British and French newspapers cover a larger area and have stronger influence. So on the surface, this news war is One-sided, like the battle in Tanganyika.

Facts have proved that the Honor Hold troops really don't care about the Tanganyika people in Tanganyika. It wasn't long before Alva Butler took revenge on the Tanganyika people near Lake Nyasa, less than one step away from Usumbula A German settlement [-] kilometers away was attacked by Fort Honor troops.

What I want to explain here is that although the German colonial rule in Tanganyika is centered on Usumbula and Safe Harbor, in fact, there are many settlements composed of German immigrants in Tanganyika. The points are mainly distributed in the eastern coastal area of ​​Tanganyika and around Lake Victoria in the north. After the Fort Honor Rebellion broke out, most German immigrants abandoned their farms and went to Usumbula and Safe Harbor to escape the war, but there were still some German immigrants. Unwilling to give up the farm he worked so hard to develop, he pinned all his hopes on God.

The German settlements in Tanganyika are still very distinctive. In order to guard against possible attacks, each settlement is actually a militarized castle. The Germans initially connected the entire Tanganyika through countless castles. .

The strong castle gave German immigrants enough comfort. There were more than 300 Germans in the settlements that were attacked. In order to protect their farms, these Germans bought a lot of weapons from Usumbra, even women and children. With some level of military training, these farmers even armed the Africans on their plantations in an attempt to use them to protect their farms.

As a result, when the Honor Fort troops arrived, the Africans on the farm took the initiative to open the gate of the castle, and disaster befell the Germans in the castle.

How the Germans took revenge on the Tanganyikas at Lake Niassa is now being returned in full by the Honor Hold troops.

And unlike the Germans retaliating against the Tanganyika people, the Germans have little interest in African women, but Africans are very interested in German white women, so the result is terrible. It is said that more than 20 women retreated to the highest level in the end. In the attic of Fort Honor, he would rather be burned alive than lay down his arms when the Fort Honor troops set fire to the attic.

This time the British and French media finally showed their double standards. When the Germans retaliated against the Tanganyikas at Lake Nyasa, the British and French made a lot of hype.

Now that Honor Fort troops are attacking German settlements, the British and French media just turn a blind eye and don't report anything at all.

In the past few days, British and French newspapers have been reporting on the Olympic Games being held in London. The Olympic Games were originally held in Rome, but because of the many earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in Italy in the past two years, the economy suffered heavy losses, so Rome decided to Due to financial difficulties and the inability to build competition venues, they announced that they would give up the right to host the competition, and then London took over.

The Southern African Federation also sent a delegation to participate in the London Olympics this time, but all members of the delegation were selected from the Cape State. Nyasaland did not participate at all for some reason, so Roque did not care whether the Southern African Federation delegation could win What kind of grades.

"During this period, Orange and Southwest Africa had frequent exchanges. Last month, Southwest Africa sent people to Orange to visit Orange's public schools. This month, De La Lai went to Southwest Africa in a private capacity. We don't know yet. The purpose of morality.” Sam’s current office is also in Little Rock. After the establishment of the Southern African Federal Government, the responsibilities of Umbrella and Brad were further clarified. Umbrella is mainly responsible for foreign business, and Brad is mainly responsible for domestic affairs.

"Keep an eye on him!" Rock said succinctly. Nyasaland is supporting the rebellion in Tanganyika, and the Germans will definitely find ways to retaliate. In the Southern African Federation, the Boers may be the only hidden danger, and they are most likely to be killed. The Germans took advantage.

During the Boer War, Dela Rale was also a famous Boer general. After the peace negotiations, De La Rale was excluded from the new government and lost all his rights.

It is obvious that De Lale was not reconciled to this. When the Southern African Federal Government was established, Dela Lale approached Rock, trying to enter the Ministry of Defense and return to the center of power, but was rejected by Rock again.

Rock didn't know if De La Lai would hold a grudge against this, even if he knew that Rock didn't care, Rock hoped that the unstable elements in the Southern African Federation would take the initiative to jump out, this was all within the scope of Rock's work.

Of course, Roque definitely did not have the idea of ​​forcing De La Lale. The reason why he rejected De La Lale was mainly because De La Lale was no longer suitable for the current federal government. Generals, who are now also holding important positions in the federal government, are mainly a matter of ability.

"I have sent a team to Southwest Africa with Dela Lai, but it is very difficult to get close to De La Lai. For the Boers, it is also difficult for De La Lai to really trust." Sam also tried his best, but it was inevitable that there were omissions.

"Our monitoring cannot have dead ends, not just De Lale, Schalke Beagle, Byers, De La Lale, Kemp, these people must be closely monitored, but don't act rashly——" Rock early I just wanted to wipe out this group of people, but unfortunately I never found a chance.

"Actually, De La Lai is in southern Africa now—" Sam didn't finish speaking, obviously implying something.

Rock understood right away, but after thinking about it, Rock still shook his head slightly: "No, we don't know the purpose of De La Lai now, maybe De La La Lai is just traveling to Southwest Africa, if there is no real evidence, we should be cautious. "

Although De La Lai has been excluded from the federal government of southern Africa, he still has a certain reputation among the Boers. If he dies in Southwest Africa for no apparent reason, it will definitely have a certain impact on the federal government.

Rock is in a high position now, and he can't do whatever he wants. If it was in the past, an insignificant Dralley would die if he died, but now Rock must pay attention to principles, otherwise this kind of thing is likely to become vicious cycle.

Don’t forget that most of the senior officials of the Federal Government of Southern Africa are British descendants who are close to Roque, and the Boers are only a few people such as Louis Botha and Jan Smother. In southern Africa, the federal government is the biggest suspect regardless of whether Louis Botha and Jan Smoltz have evidence.

Although assassinations are common these days, they have never happened in southern Africa. Once assassinations become a means of attacking political opponents, the federal government will fall into chaos. At that time, everyone will be in danger, including Roque. Put yourself in great danger.

So Roque still has a bottom line, as long as Draley is not found to have betrayed behavior, Roque can tolerate such small actions by Draley.

"Okay, then just strengthen the control." Sam is just suggesting, whether to adopt it or not, it is up to Rock to decide.

Now that Rock has made a choice, Sam can only follow Rock's will. Sam already understood it deeply during the gold mining days.

Looking back, when Rock asked Ade to report on his work, he still seemed to mention it casually.

"Send someone to stare at him and figure out his purpose of going to Southwest Africa." Ade's handling method is exactly the same as Roque's, but Ade still doesn't know what kind of intelligence capabilities Roque has now.
