Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 705

"What's your name?" Hicks sat down on the sofa in the living room and slowly took off his gloves.

"Li, Li Hongru—"

"There is a knife on the table behind you. Someone is going to break into your house. Why don't you pick up the knife and resist?" Hicks was not in a hurry. There was indeed a knife on the table behind the man.

Although it is a table knife, it can also kill people.

Li Hongru stared at Hicks blankly, not knowing how to answer.

"If it's a robber who broke in, then you should know the consequences." Hicks couldn't tell how disappointed he was.

"The robbers only want money—" Li Hongru muttered.

"Bandits sometimes kill." Hicks got up, not wanting to waste time here.

"If the robber dares to come, I will fight him desperately!" Finally, there was a voice that did not disappoint Hicks, although the voice was a bit immature.

"No—" the panicked woman screamed and gagged a teenager.

This child is also about fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as the two guys who were executed in the street just now.

Only then did Hicks notice that the boy was still holding a dagger in his hand.

A real dagger, longer, sharper, and better to hold than a table knife.

"Very good, this is for you, protect your family well—" Hicks took off the Gurkha scimitar he was wearing and threw it to the boy.

The boy didn't dare to pick it up, and the scimitar fell on the floor in front of the boy, and the boy's eyes were shining when he looked at the scimitar.

Hicks and Middleton didn't waste any more time and turned to leave.

On the first day of the invasion of Batavia, the Medan army publicly executed nearly a thousand people, and the law and order in Batavia was greatly improved.

In the end, Middleton failed to drink tea at the Governor's Mansion. Just before the Medan troops invaded Batavia, the Dutch Governor in East India hurriedly fled to Borneo by boat, and the Governor's Mansion was later seized.

Rock knew the news that the Medan troops captured Batavia was already July 20th, and the total order of Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. also increased to 300 million pounds, but it was not for the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group, but for the Nyasaland Military Industry Group. Nyasaland Import and Export Trading Company.

The 300 million pounds were used to purchase various industrial products in southern Africa, ranging from mechanical products to agricultural products.

If Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. showed such sincerity from the very beginning, then maybe Roque would take a high look at Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd.

Don't think about it now, Nyasaland's products are not short of sales, and Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. hopes to buy mechanical products and various special medicines, and there are still queues. There are as many agricultural products as you want, but apart from potato vodka, Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. does not have a large demand for agricultural products, which makes Rock very helpless.

"After all, they are just businessmen. There is nothing to say. They just want to buy and sell. As long as they abide by the law, there is no need to target them." Rock does not need to rely on Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. to gain a foothold in East India. In the face of absolute strength, any Routine are pale.

"In the telegram from Andy, Huang Taiyuan offered to donate 150 million rand after the Medan troops captured Batavia, and he didn't make any excessive demands." Anton was quite satisfied, although Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. was a bit slow in responding , but after recognizing the situation, it is still on the road.

"If you dare to make a request in this situation, you are looking for death. There are so many overseas Chinese students in Batavia, and only Huang Taiyuan donated 150 million?" Rock was indifferent. In order to survive, there is nothing wrong with it. Now that the Medan troops have occupied Batavia, if Qiao Sheng is still stubborn, then don’t blame Rock for being cruel.

These overseas Chinese are really speechless sometimes.

In East India and Malaya, the most ruthless bullying Chinese are often Chinese farmers.

Rock doesn't have the slightest affection for these Chinese farmers. Now the East India Company can't spare them, so they didn't target these evil Chinese farmers. When the East India Company frees up, Rock will slowly settle the score. There is a problem with Yuan Trading Co., Ltd., of course Rock will not be lenient.

"No, Batavia's donation exceeded 500 million. Not only Chinese, but also many white people donated." Anton smiled, and it seemed that white people were also very sensible.

This is not surprising. The white people in East India are not only Dutch, but also many white people from other countries, including many British people. Don’t forget that the British can enjoy special care in East India.

"Tell Andy, make a quick decision, and don't give the Dutch a chance to breathe." Rock did not relax. Although the Dutch are not strong in military strength, their economic strength is still very good. Until the [-]th century, the Netherlands was still the wealthiest in Europe. One of the countries in the world, if the Dutch are given too much time, it is hard to say whether an accident will happen.

"The governor of the East India went to Borneo, and Java Island is separated by the Java Sea. Andy doesn't have a navy in his hands. It may be a bit difficult to fight across the sea. Our cruiser has already launched. Do you want to sell Andy one or two destroyers?" Dong has now tasted the sweetness of being an arms dealer, let alone a destroyer, even a cruiser, as long as the money is enough, Anton will not be under pressure.

In fact, arms are not the most profitable product in Nyasaland. The profit margins of medicines, automobiles, and airplanes are higher than arms, but they cannot withstand the high demand for arms. An airplane can earn thousands of dollars, but a country only buys a few Tens of hundreds, the profit is not much. On the contrary, for basic weapons such as rifles, if you order tens of thousands of them at one time, the profit is still considerable.

"Don't even think about it. Airplanes are enough. The Far East Fleet has been wiped out. Andy has no warships, and the Dutch have no warships. There is nothing to be afraid of." Rock is not worried. In the Far East, only relying on mercenaries Fight the world.

The mistake is that the Dutch don't pay much attention to the army. The weapons and equipment of the East Indian servant army are so simple that they are simply horrible. Even if the Dutch want to buy weapons, they can't buy them now. Against the background of the arms race, the weapons produced by European countries are not enough. For their own use, although the United States is rich, it is limited to the relationship between American military enterprises and the United Kingdom and southern Africa, and they do not sell them to the Dutch, so the Dutch cannot buy enough weapons even if they have money.

Relatively speaking, the Medan army is much better. At least the Nyasaland military-industrial group can open up its supply, and it has also adjusted its production capacity according to the specific conditions of East India. The ratio of shotguns to general-purpose machine guns is extremely high. Two weapons, better to use in the rainforest than Lee Enfield.

"A new problem. Several Chinese Americans are active in southern Africa, hoping to get help from southern Africa to launch a riot in the Qing Dynasty—" Anton reported a new problem.

Rock realized right away that it was already 1910.

If there is no accident, that is, next year, the rule of the Qing government will gradually collapse, but the Chinese nation has not stood up since then, but has entered another cycle.

Next, the Qing Dynasty will enter a period of warlord separatism, which is also not optimistic for the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.

"You can try to get in touch with them to see what they want. If the request is not too much, then satisfy their request—" Rock knew that the wheel of history could not be stopped, and the rule of the Qing government was indeed coming to an end, so now Rock We can only hope that the fall of the Qing government will be faster: "Send a telegram to Sam and ask him to come."

In the case of the Qing Dynasty, mercenaries actually had room to play. The colonial servants in the East India had no fighting spirit, and the Eight Banners Green Battalion in the Qing Dynasty were not much better. If possible, Rock was still willing to help.

As for mercenaries, to put it bluntly, if you have milk, you are a mother. As long as the money is enough, the mercenaries of the umbrella company don't care whether they work in the East India or the Qing Dynasty.

Perhaps it would also be more favorable for immigrants from southern Africa.

"Send mercenaries to clear the country?" Anton hesitated.

"Why not?" Rock was confident, as long as those Chinese-Americans didn't mind, then the price didn't matter at all.

"My lord, the military discipline of the mercenaries is not good. They almost killed all the Persians in the peninsula, and they also killed all the people in East India. Don't be afraid—" Anton was very worried. The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company were not only Chinese, but also There are a large number of whites and Gurkhas, and the Chinese will restrain themselves when they return to the Qing Dynasty, while the whites and Gurkhas will be unscrupulous.

The key is nationality, which has nothing to do with race. For the Chinese in southern Africa, the white mercenaries of the umbrella company and the Gurkha mercenaries can maintain respect, but not necessarily for the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.

It's not necessarily, it's definitely. You must know that in the current world, the Chinese people's reputation is not good. In principle, the Chinese in southern Africa are no longer Chinese, but British.

"What to be afraid of, who to send to clear the country, we have the final say." Rock is not worried, the decision is still in the hands of the umbrella company, it depends on human effort.

While Rock and Anton were disagreeing, several Chinese-Americans also got into a dispute at the Oak Bar next to Cecil Rhodes Square in the center of Little Rock.

"Lord Nyasaland himself is Chinese. He came to southern Africa ten years ago and made his mark in the Boer War. We have been in Nyasaland for several days. I believe everyone has seen Nyasaland during this time. The status of the Chinese in Nyasaland and the living environment of the Chinese in Nyasaland, I believe that Lord Nyasaland will not just ignore the Chinese in Qing Dynasty, and tomorrow I will go to Eagle Fort to send greetings." A 40-year-old The middle-aged man spoke generously.

"The current Lord Nyasaland is British—" a young man reminded softly.

"But Lord Nyasaland has been immigrating from the Qing Dynasty all these years—" someone retorted.

"That doesn't explain anything." Someone questioned.

"Gentlemen, do you have any opinion on your lord?" A strange voice suddenly came from beside him.

Several Chinese Americans were a little surprised.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Ceci Joel, a member of Brad's office, that is, the secret police you often hear these days, please come with me, don't resist, otherwise I promise, you will not be able to leave Get out of this pub—" Ceci Joel was at ease, like a hunting dog on a hunt.

It was only then that several Chinese-Americans noticed that the surrounding guests, bar girls, bartenders, and bar security guards whose chest muscles almost tore their clothes were all staring at them.
