Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 579 Cruiser

Sometimes I have to sigh that the cycle of life is really wonderful.

Although Rock did not take action against Delari, Delari still did not get rid of the fateful arrangement.

On May [-]th, Delale was shot dead by Windhoek police in Windhoek, Southwest Africa, on the grounds that Delale did not park in accordance with the regulations.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding. In the whole of Southwest Africa, only the governor of Southwest Africa owns the Lord car produced by Nyasaland. Therefore, when Dralley appeared on the streets of Windhoek in his own car, he was regarded as a policeman by the Windhoek police. The robber was killed.

In another time and space, in 1914, Dralley was also in Johannesburg, and was mistakenly killed by the Johannesburg police because he did not comply with the regulations.

At that time, the police thought that what they intercepted was the car of the Foster gang who was robbing in Rand, but the Boers thought it was a deliberate murder by the Johannesburg police, so the relationship between the Boers and the southern African federal government was extremely tense.

In this time and space, De La Lai had an accident in Windhoek, and had nothing to do with the Southern African Federal Government. Of course, the Boers had no reason to anger the Federal Government.

After De Lale's death, Ade took De La Lale's body back to Orange for a burial, and issued a condolence message in the name of the federal government to express his condolences to Dela Lale. To thoroughly investigate the truth, someone must be responsible for this matter.

Of course, Roque will not miss this opportunity. No matter what the truth of this matter is, the most important thing now is to attribute the responsibility to the German Southwest Africa, so that the federal government of Southern Africa can remain invincible.

Therefore, all the newspapers in southern Africa in May reported the death of Dela Lai and the war in Tanganyika. They all hinted or directly pointed out that the reason why De La Lai was killed in Windhoek , which is the revenge of German Southwest Africa on Southern Africa.

"The truth is not important, the key lies in the guidance of public opinion. The German newspapers say that we are all demons who eat people, but people still believe it. Therefore, we must give full play to the advantages of public opinion and put all the blame on Southwest Africa." Roque The telegram to Lord Beiyan was so straightforward.

Lord Northern Rock is now managing director of the Times News Corporation.

After Rock bought the "Times" and "Daily Mail", he established the "Sun" and then formed the Times News Group with these three newspapers as the core.

In the UK, or the whole world, Lord Beiyan has an unparalleled sense of smell and talent in the field of news media. Rock's advantage lies in the field of capital. When it comes to the specific media field, Rock also needs to recognize Lord Beiyan's ability, so Lord Beiyan became Managing Director of Times News Corp.

Since the outbreak of the rebellion in Tanganyika, the Times News Group has played a big role. Without the first report by the Times News Group, the rebellion in Tanganyika would not have attracted so much attention.

In fact, the Times News Group's report on the rebellion in Tanganyika even aroused the vigilance of the British government.

Lord Northern Rock made it clear in his reply to Roque that some MPs expressed concern about the Times News Group report, because the Times News Group report would arouse serious anti-German sentiment in the UK, which may affect the UK The relationship with Germany has deteriorated to an irreversible state.

This fully shows that some people in the British government still have illusions, believing that under the premise of the current arms race, there is still room for relaxation of relations between the UK and Germany.

Rock's understanding of the current situation is very clear. The arms race can only end in war. Germany has invested tens of millions of pounds in the arms race, and Britain has invested hundreds of millions. With so much investment, if there is no result in the end, It is unacceptable to all.

That's why Roque's attitude is very firm. No matter whether there are members of parliament's objection or not, Times News Group must firmly express its attitude. Isn't the UK known as freedom of speech? This is also Times News Group's defense of its own freedom of speech.

It is said that "The Times" has always insisted on its own value orientation and has never catered to the public. This is why "The Times" has become the core of Times News Corporation.

Looking back, in order to cooperate with the propaganda of the Times News Group, the Nyasaland Marine Police, the First Cavalry Division, and the Rhodesian Northern Division also took frequent actions in Nyasaland, and their attitudes became more and more radical.

On May 20th, Beihai Police's flagship "Beihai" crossed the central line of the North Sea and patrolled waters less than one kilometer away from Usumbula Port, which caused strong protests from Usumbula Marine Police.

On the 25th, the patrol team of the [-]st Cavalry Division encountered the Tanganyika German army while patrolling. A physical conflict broke out between the two sides. The Tanganyika German army was defeated. After stripping off their clothes, the two sides almost shot each other.

On the 26th, when the No.30 Fifth Division of the German Army was besieging a Fort Honor unit, the Rhodesian Northern Division in Nyasaland began to gather, which put enormous pressure on the No.30 Fifth Division of the German Army. In the end, the No.30 Fifth Division of the German Army Because the division had to guard against a sudden attack from the northern Rhodesian division, the Fort Honor troops, which were originally surrounded, took the opportunity to break through.

NO.30, Erich von Falkenhayn finally couldn't bear it anymore, and contacted the British Foreign Office through the German Foreign Office, requesting a direct meeting with Rock.

The British Foreign Office agreed to the request of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs and did not give Roque any reminder. However, Earl Selborne sent a telegram to Roque that night, hoping that Roque could show the position of the British government and firmly oppose Germany on behalf of southern Africa. Colonial atrocities committed in Tanganyika.

Ade is also concerned about the meeting between Rock and Erich von Falkenhayn, so on June [-]th, Sidney Milner, who is currently the first secretary of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, came to Nyasaland, Rock The meeting with Erich von Falkenhayn, Sidney Milnaya was to be present throughout.

"Sidney, welcome to Nyasaland—" Rock held a private dinner for Sidney Milner at Eagle Fort, welcoming Sidney Milner's arrival.

"I have long heard that Nyasaland is a paradise on earth, and I just came to Nyasaland today, and it really deserves its reputation—" Sidney Milner was also very polite to Roque, not to mention Roque and Ade's relationship The relationship, as far as Rock's status is concerned, is enough for Sidney Milner to maintain respect for Rock.

After all, in southern Africa, there are only two viscounts, Rock and Ade, and others such as Henry and Philip are barons.

However, I recently heard that Ade is going to be promoted to Earl, and he may be awarded this year.

After the self-government of southern Africa, the UK also aggressively recruited officials in southern Africa. Relatively speaking, the cost of titles is the lowest, so it is estimated that many people in southern Africa will be knighted this year. After all, titles are just a name and do not require too much cost.

"Is the Prime Minister's health okay?" Roque still cared about Adelaide. According to the tradition of Han culture, Roque is now a student of the Son of Heaven.

"It's not bad, but the prime minister is very busy every day. He has to work late every day, and he only has four hours of sleep at most—" Sidney Milner smiled bitterly. The position of prime minister is not easy to be, whoever is who Know.

Rock is still only a deputy, and his daily official duties make him tireless. As the Prime Minister of the Southern African Federal Government, Ade is busy every day, so most regional officials can serve for at most two terms, no matter how long the time is, The body just can't stand it.

If they are all hands-on like Ade, it will really exhaust people to death.

"You still have to remind the Prime Minister that the work is endless, and you can work more efficiently only when you rest. The federal government supports so many officials, and if you can't work, let the Prime Minister do it alone." If Roque becomes the emperor, he must be in the traditional sense A weak emperor, at least a "lazy government" cannot escape.

"Of course I reminded, but unfortunately it didn't work—" Sidney Milner looked at Rock with complicated eyes, probably blaming Rock for persuading Ade to return to southern Africa.

But more is gratitude.

If Adelaide does not make it to southern Africa, he is marginalized in London and Sidney Milner has no future at all.

Now Adelaide has returned to the Federation of Southern Africa as the prime minister. Sidney Milner is the first secretary of the federal government. It can really be said that one person is under one person and above ten thousand people, so Sidney Milner has a very strong relationship with Roque. complex.

Mostly it should be gratitude.

Otherwise Sidney Milner would not have such a good attitude towards Rock.

"Well, I admit that I caused a lot of trouble for the Prime Minister." Rock admitted his mistake voluntarily. Nyasaland did have a lot of things during this period, and Adelaide is probably having a hard time.

"No, no, my lord, it's not your problem. The friction between Nyasaland and Tanganyika is actually good for the federal government. At least it can make us unanimously open. During this time, Oran The rule of law is very calm, and Minister Botha rarely goes to Pretoria to ask for money—” Sidney Milner laughed, everything has two sides, from Nyasaland’s point of view, and Tanger The friction between Nika is indeed very serious.

But from the perspective of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, the incident between Nyasaland and Tanganyika is not all bad.

This is also the normal state of the world. Before Germany provoked the arms race, it created friction with France in Morocco to prove the necessity of strengthening armaments.

If Britain wants to suppress the rise of the German navy, it hypes up the threat of the rise of the German navy at home. In fact, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the rise of the navy cannot be determined by one or two warships, otherwise there will be no "ten-year army, Centennial Navy".

Speaking of the navy, Nyasaland has now started building cruisers.
