Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 699 Put it right

Angie was just ten years old when she came to Southern Africa in 1900.

A full ten years have passed, and the ignorant children at the time have now stepped out of the campus and started working, contributing their strength to southern Africa.

Angie's generation is undoubtedly lucky. They have received a complete secondary education and have the opportunity to receive a university education. They are proficient in Chinese, English and even Boolean. Their future is boundless.

According to the British tradition, Andy, the second generation of officials, has a great chance to enter the political arena and inherit his father's career. Winston was only 26 years old when he was elected as a member of Congress. However, the situation in southern Africa is different from that of the British government. Well, Rock doesn't object to An Qi and the others who are second-generation officials entering politics, but they must have rich experience in grassroots work and perform well in grassroots work in order to gradually move up according to a fixed procedure.

That's why Angie went to work for the Little Rock Police Department right after graduation, while still studying as a graduate student at Nyasaland University.

The Air Cavalry Flying Club is located on the shore of Lake Niassa on the outskirts of Little Rock, covering an area of ​​about 150 acres. Rock warmly invited Viscount Gladstone to take an airship to visit Lake Niassa. Viscount Gladstone refused decisively. Flying now belongs to young people For the project, Viscount Gladstone is over 50 years old this year, and his heart may not be able to take the airship.

Then just visit.

Although the Air Cavalry Flying Club has not been established for a long time, there are still many photos in the exhibition hall. The most eye-catching photo is the photo of Lin Chengzhi standing in front of the "Strong Wind" fighter jet with Xu Xiu and Ethan before flying over the English Channel .

It is different from the general form that only takes half of the nose, or even only one cockpit, and the pilot has to take pictures from the bottom obliquely. In order to highlight the image of the pilots, Lin Chengzhi, Xu Xiu, and Ethan are positioned a bit forward. They are wearing light-colored one-piece flight suits Wearing dark jackets with fur collars, leather hats for pilots and soft-brimmed caps unique to southern African soldiers, the three of them are all tall and tall with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and their images are really representative.

In order to ensure that people can see this photo at the first sight when entering the door, the photo is enlarged and hung in the most conspicuous position in the exhibition hall. Even in broad daylight, the light above the photo is still bright, which makes the photo framed The sparkling diamonds complement the brown wooden floors.

Anyway, Viscount Gladstone's first feeling is that Nyasaland is really rich, and there are really many diamonds in Southern Africa.

"It was Lin who founded this flying club. So far, four people in this flying club have obtained flight licenses issued by the Aviation Administration, which means that they have the ability to fly airplanes, but they need to fly fighter jets and bombers. Professional special training." Rock will definitely not introduce that the inlaid photo frames are actually crystals, and the production in southern Africa is also very large. There are also many products in Yitnor that directly use crystals. After all, there are not so many rich people who have everything. Set diamonds at every turn.

"This model is very good. It can quickly train more pilots in large numbers." Viscount Gladstone immediately realized the benefits of this method. There are actually flying clubs in the UK, but not many have aircraft. This kind of simple and primitive wooden frame is probably not as complete as the glider in the Air Cavalry Flying Club.

There are also a variety of aircraft and paraglider models in the showroom. Such models are for sale and are an important way of making money for the Air Cavalry Flying Club.

Compared with only one aircraft model, there are more models of paragliders, from the simplest one-person paraglider with only an iron frame to the advanced paraglider that is similar in shape to an airplane and has a propeller installed at the nose position. Paragliding has it all.

As a result, the propeller-equipped paraglider immediately caught the attention of Viscount Gladstone.

"No, no, this is not an airplane, this is a paraglider. The power generated by this propeller is not enough to make the paraglider fly. It can only play an auxiliary role, allowing the paraglider to fly farther." Rock Explain to the side that it would be nice to build an airplane so easily.

Rock is also catching up with the good time. He happened to participate in this era when the aircraft just appeared. Earlier, the technology of the engine was not yet mature, and there were too many problems to be overcome. Later, the development of the aircraft would go further. It will be more difficult to catch up.

The era is just right now, and airplanes have appeared, but the technology is not yet perfect. Rock only needs to provide some inspiration to Nyasaland's engineers from time to time, which is enough to keep Nyasaland's airplanes ahead.

"Then use a more powerful engine!" Viscount Gladstone looked at the paraglider with burning eyes.

"Nyasaland has the best engine in the world, and the Wright Brothers also hope to purchase engines from Nyasaland to improve the performance of the aircraft, but we didn't sell them. Now the production of engines is not enough, and we don't have enough for ourselves." Rock still A bit proud, the US government has basically abandoned the "Aviator III" of the Wright Brothers, and is negotiating with Nyasaland to purchase an aircraft.

The United States today is not the United States that will dominate the world in the future. Don’t look at the Americans who look down on Europe that “exudes a rotten smell”, but in fact they are still very honest, and they are very fond of everything in Europe, especially the United Kingdom.

Southern Africa is still part of the United Kingdom, so there is no psychological obstacle for the US government to purchase aircraft from southern Africa.

As for whether this will affect the development of related companies in the United States, sorry, the Wright Brothers do not have enough influence now. They are indeed the fathers of flying, but Rock is standing on the shoulders of giants, so he can see further.

"Hmph, Americans, those upstarts have annexed all the territories that can be annexed in the Americas, and now they are finally looking overseas. Sooner or later, the United States will become the enemy of our British Empire." Viscount Gladstone said to the point.

In England, there are many people who have similar thoughts with Viscount Gladstone.

After the start of the arms race, the United States did not have a clear position, and made great fortunes in the war between Britain and Germany. Therefore, the United Kingdom has a lot of opinions on the United States, but this opinion cannot be expressed openly, because if it is not handled properly, it will be brought to the fore. If the United States pushes to the German side, the consequences will be more serious.

Therefore, even if the United States has both sides, the United Kingdom can only try its best to win over, and it is impossible to turn its face, unless the United States completely falls to Germany.

This situation is basically impossible. After all, the US president is not a lunatic like William II. The current British Empire is basically invincible, and the United States does not believe that Germany can challenge the British hegemony.

"The United States is a country with great potential. It has a large population, vast land and abundant resources. It is indeed very advantageous, but as long as we do not make mistakes, the Americans basically have no chance." Rock knows the strength of the United States, although the total industrial output value of the United States has now exceeded Britain, but Britain is still the most powerful country in the world.

"The problem is that we are making mistakes. Even if we don't want to make mistakes, Germany is forcing us to make mistakes. The whole world will be dragged into the abyss by that madman in Germany." Viscount Gladstone was worried. The aftermath of the world war, but no one is powerless to stop it.

"That's why we need more population, stronger industrial strength, and stronger army, so that we can better safeguard our interests." Rock continued to brainwash Viscount Gladstone.

In fact, Southern Africa has potential that is not weaker than that of the United States. Although purely in terms of territorial area, Southern Africa is much smaller than the United States, but Southern Africa is rich in resources and also has great potential.

Compared with the United States, the biggest shortcoming of southern Africa is the population. The total population of the United States is now close to 1000 million, while that of southern Africa is less than [-] million. Without a sufficient population base, there will not be enough workers, and there will be no output value. And scale, no matter how capable Rock is, he has no room to display it.

"You can consider emigrating from India." Viscount Gladstone gave an option that Rock was least willing to choose.

For the United Kingdom, the largest population resource is India. Now India has about 3.3 million people and is the most important colony of the United Kingdom. Therefore, the United Kingdom can allow Canada to be self-governing, Australia to be self-governing, and southern Africa to be self-governing, but it will never be allowed Indian self-government.

In another time and space, after the outbreak of the World War, the British organized the Indian Servant Army to join the war, and promised to give India the same autonomy as Canada, Australia, and southern Africa after the war.

Believing it was true, India mobilized 130 million troops to fight in Europe and donated more than [-] million pounds in military expenditure.

As a result, after the end of the World War, Britain reneged on its promise and became rich, and India launched a non-violent non-cooperation movement under the leadership of Gandhi.

Rock will definitely not immigrate from India. In this regard, Rock’s attitude and Yang Smother’s rarely agree. Not only will they not immigrate from India, but they will also repatriate Indians in southern Africa in batches.

As for whether this will lead to population decline, Rock doesn't care, the Indians leave, just convenient for the Chinese to enter to fill the gap.

But this is something Yang Smolts does not want to see, so politics is like this, there is cooperation, but there are also differences.

Leaving the exhibition hall, Viscount Gladstone could finally observe the only "Kangaroo Two-seat Trainer Aircraft" of the Air Cavalry Flying Club up close.

Although Viscount Gladstone is unwilling to take a plane to fly into the blue sky, it is still possible to sit in the cockpit and pose for a photo. Rock even imitated the photo in the exhibition hall with Viscount Gladstone in the "Kangaroo Two-seater Take a picture in front of the "trainer plane".

If this photo is developed, it will definitely replace the group photo of the three of Lin Chengzhi and hang it in the most conspicuous position in the exhibition hall.

　I wish brothers a happy new year, all the best, and a happy family——
