Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 797 It's Not Saved

The war changed a lot of things. The Congo Free State was a paradise for white people and a hell for Africans. There is still a lot to say about the future, at least there will be no more humanitarian tragedies like before.

The most perfect situation is that the Congo Free State is divided into two, and whites and Africans live in separate areas without interfering with each other.

However, this situation is unlikely to happen. Banda strongly demands that the white people leave the Congo Free State and compensate the colonial government for the losses caused to the Congo Free State over the years.

Isaac Pansy hopes that whites and Africans will join hands to build a new Republic of Congo, where everyone can live happily.

The ideal is good, but the reality is cruel. The first day of negotiations fell into a stalemate, and neither Isaac Pansy nor Banda wanted to compromise.

"Banda is not capable of managing a country at all. I doubt that he even knows what he really wants. We built the Republic of Congo with our own hands. We built railways, invested in plantations, and looked for mines. Without us Work hard, Banda and others still live in a tribe like a cowshed, sleeping with sheep, I guess they can't even understand the concept of a country." Isaac Pansy was speechless, and the negotiations during the day did not make any progress. Feng Xun entertained Isaac Pansy at his home, hoping to understand Isaac Pansy's bottom line.

This is also the consensus of many white people. They do not think that colonizing Africa is an evil act. Instead, they think that the colonization of white people has brought civilization to the colony, and the natives of the colony should be grateful.

Feng Xun just smiled and said nothing. This topic cannot be expanded. White people have indeed brought some changes to Africa, but these changes are not what Africans want. Africans don't want those so-called "advanced technologies" and just want to return Back to the previous carefree life, that is the life Africans yearn for.

"I admit that the former Congo Free State did not respect these Africans enough. Now we are aware of this problem. In the future, we will try our best to ensure the right of Africans to survive. The Congo Free State can no longer continue to be chaotic. Peace will be restored one day earlier. We can settle down one day earlier, and a chaotic Congo Free State is also a huge threat to neighboring countries and regions." Isaac Pencey avoided the most serious, and the whites used to have more than "insufficient respect" for Africans. The evil deeds are too numerous to describe.

"Mr. Pansi, if you really want to restore peace as soon as possible, then you have to give up some unrealistic fantasies. The Africans in the Congo Free State have shown with their actions that they will never compromise, and you must also make appropriate concessions." Feng Xun participated in the whole process During the daytime negotiations, I can only say that Isaac Pansy is too naive, even Feng Xun, an "outsider", can see the attitude of Africans, but Isaac Pansy still doesn't want to face the reality.

Today's rebellion in the Congo Free State is entirely caused by the Belgians.

In terms of numbers, the Africans in the Congo Free State have the upper hand. There are only a little over 1 whites in the Congo Free State, and it is impossible to compete with the tens of millions of Africans.

To put it bluntly, if it were Feng Xun, Feng Xun would not negotiate with the Republic of Congo at all. Now the white-controlled area in the Congo Free State only has a few strongholds at the mouth of the sea, and the vast inland areas are controlled by rebels. In the district, the rebels don't even need to attack, they only need to besiege, and they can trap the white people entrenched in Leopoldville and Boma to death.

"Mr. Sheriff, this involves the interests of all of us, so we can't make concessions." Isaac Pansy will definitely not make concessions now. About [-] white people died during the rebellion, and hatred cannot be resolved at all. He also faced threats from the Belgian government, so Isaac Pansy wanted to end the war as soon as possible.

Feng Xun didn't talk nonsense, he hurriedly finished his meal and sent Isaac Pansy back to his residence, only to be woken up by his subordinates in the middle of the night.

"That bastard Banda tricked the waiter into the room on the pretext of cleaning up the room and tried to commit violence. The waiter shouted for help. Our people came quickly, so that bastard Banda didn't succeed."

Feng Xun had a headache. He also knew that Africans were unreliable, but he didn't expect to be so unreliable. If this kind of thing happened in Nyasaland, Banda would be imprisoned for such behavior.

In fact, he has to go to jail now. Feng Xun met Banda in the confinement room of the northern division army camp. Like other thin and dry Africans, Banda has a strong and muscular body and weighs more than 200 jins visually. The middle is rare.

"Is there anything to explain?" Feng Xun took the initiative to break the silence.

"It was just a joke. I wanted to play a game with that lady. I didn't expect his reaction to be so violent." Banda has the potential to become a politician, and he can say such nonsense without changing his face Not jumping really requires a lot of psychological quality.

During the rebellion in the Congo Free State this time, many women in the inland areas became victims of the war. No one knows their current situation. No one knows whether they are dead or alive, but what is certain is that Banda, as the leader of the rebel army , There is certainly no shortage of white women around.

It is an amazing fact that supposedly rich Africans should also like Africans.

The reality is that most rich Africans like white people, and they don't know how much they hate their skin color, even themselves.

"Mr. Banda, you are in trouble now. According to the laws of southern Africa, you will be sentenced to a fixed-term imprisonment of more than one year and less than three years." Feng Xun is a policeman himself, and he is quite familiar with these legal provisions.

This is an attempt, so it is more than one year and less than three years. If it is a fait accompli, then it is more than three years and less than seven years, and the circumstances are serious and even the death penalty.

In a normal trial, the crime of this kind of behavior is basically dealt with at the top of the line, so let alone three years, the average life expectancy is only 30 to [-] years old.

This is really not an exaggeration. Until the 21st century, the average life expectancy of 35 years in African countries was a handful.

"Bukavu is not yet the territory of southern Africa—" Banda was not stupid, but such cleverness was even more annoying.

"You still have to find a way to see how to solve it. Bukavu is indeed not southern Africa, so the laws of southern Africa do not apply in Bukavu, but you were directly captured by the patrol team of the Northern Division. I have to remind you, This consequence is more serious, now there are two ways, one is to actively compensate the victims, after paying a security deposit of at least [-] rand, you can get limited freedom——I don’t need to introduce the other—” Feng Xun Don't give Banda a chance to mess around, just talk about the result.

"Ten thousand? This is too expensive—" Banda actually bargained.

"Well, just pretend that I haven't been here before." Feng Xun didn't force it. The security deposit is to prevent criminals from escaping, so the minimum requirement is [-].

"Wait, Mr. Feng, I am willing to pay a deposit." Banda put away his little thoughts and thought he was unlucky.

"We must actively compensate the victims." Feng Xun is not worried about Banda's ability to pay. Banda is also the leader of the rebel army, and he comes from a tribal chief's family, so he still has some money.

"I didn't do anything to her at all—" Banda was still talking, and then he saw Feng Xun's contemptuous eyes.

"Okay, I will compensate her for the loss." Banda immediately gave in, much easier to talk to than when negotiating during the day.

Feng Xun offered a price of [-] rand on behalf of the waiter, and Banda quickly accepted it, and paid in gold, and then all the service personnel in the temporary residence where Banda lived were replaced by men.

This seems more dangerous.

Negotiations continued on the second day, and Isaac Pansy and Banda still refused to back down. Feng Xun received news that the Republic of Congo and the rebels were preparing for war, and even Belgium had made progress in forming an expeditionary force.

The expeditionary force formed by the Belgian government finally gathered 5000 people, and Leopold II and the Belgian government each paid half of the cost.

Just one day ago, several countries and regions surrounding the Congo Free State formally proposed to the Belgian government that if the Belgian government could not guarantee the stability of the Congo Free State, Britain, France and Germany would take over the Congo Free State instead of the Belgian government.

The war in the Congo Free State has indeed had a serious impact on neighboring countries and regions. If the rebels gain something in the negotiations, it will be a great encouragement to all Africans, so Isaac Pansy is not going to back down , I dare not back down.

"It's okay if there's a truce. Let's truce according to the current actual control area. Leopoldville and Boma belong to your Republic of Congo. We just need the wilderness in the interior." Banda thought beautifully, and Li The combined area of ​​Obodeville and Boma is estimated to be only one to two hundred square kilometers, and the total area of ​​the Congo Free State is more than 200 million square kilometers.

"Bastard, I heard that you were arrested last night. How is it like in prison?" Before Isaac Pansy had time to speak, one of Isaac Pansy's followers finally couldn't bear it.

"You bastard, what are you talking about?" Banda also had a bad temper, and immediately retorted.

"Hmph—" The entourage named Pulitzer sneered, and suddenly pulled out a Nyasaland Luger pistol from his pocket, pointed it directly at Banda and pulled the trigger.

Bah—— bah——

Immediately there was the sound of dense footsteps, followed by someone kicking open the door, and the soldiers of the Northern Division of Rhodesia who had been waiting nearby rushed in.

When Pulitzer took out his gun, Feng Xun was also taken aback. According to the regulations, neither whites nor Africans were allowed to carry weapons at the negotiation site. When entering the meeting room, someone was in charge of checking.

Obviously these regulations were not strictly enforced, otherwise Pulitzer would never have had the opportunity to bring a gun into the conference room.

"How the hell did you bring the gun in?" Feng Xun was really curious.

On the floor next to him, Banda was convulsing violently, blood was spreading out along Banda's body, it must be hopeless.
