Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 802

The current Chinese are very unfamiliar with the history of that period of time. Most of the Chinese rescued by Rock from the gold mines in Johannesburg for the first time left Southern Africa, a place they hated deeply, after recovering. Most of them died one after another during the year.

Buck can be regarded as one of the few witnesses. When he was in Johannesburg, Buck tried his best to help the Chinese workers, but Buck's power was limited and he couldn't change the general environment at that time. After all, it was a drop in the bucket.

The appearance of Roque really changed the fate of the Chinese. Since 1901, a large number of Chinese came to southern Africa with the help of Roque. This time, they were no longer all young and middle-aged people. Since then, the Chinese have settled down in southern Africa, and their number has grown and their strength has become stronger and stronger. Now they have surpassed the total population of whites and become the largest ethnic group in southern Africa.

The "ethnic group" here certainly does not include Africans. Africans in southern Africa are not recognized by the federal government, and the federal government will certainly not collect statistics on Africans. Look at the current Congo Free State. Leopold II talked about the reduction of 500 million Africans during the rule of the Congo Free State. In fact, during the British rule in southern Africa, the total number of Africans in southern Africa continued to decrease, but the official statistics were not available, so There is no accurate data.

In fact, the Congo Free State does not have accurate data, and the 500 million data was passed on from Roque.

With Roque's "guidance", the negotiations between the Republic of Congo and the Kingdom of Congo went smoothly this time.

Negotiations are still going on in Bukavu. With the lessons learned from last time, Bukavu is facing a big enemy and strictly controls the belongings of all negotiating members. It is absolutely not allowed to bring offensive items into the negotiation site , not even a pen.

Security guards were also arranged in advance at the negotiation site to prevent any accidents. The water cups provided at the meeting site were all paper cups, and the water was left to cool.

Isaiah Chamberlain and Lu Taitai were actually dissatisfied with the two lines that Rock casually drew on the map, but this time the person who presided over the meeting was not Feng Xun, but Christian and Yaya. In the eyes of Ya who is about to choose someone to devour, Isaiah Chamberlain and Lu Taitai have to keep their opinions. In December, NO. ", the rebellion that lasted nearly a year finally came to an end.

It's just that an internal reconciliation has been reached. To usher in real peace, it depends on whether the Belgian government recognizes the validity of the "Bukavu Contract".

However, even if the Belgian government does not recognize it, it will not be able to change the reality that the "Bukavu Contract" will take effect immediately in the Congo Free State. In addition to begging for help from the international community, the Belgian government can also send an expeditionary force to launch a war to change this result. Unfortunately, now The eyes of the whole world are attracted by the Balkan war that may change the future direction of the whole world. No one really cares about the ownership of the Congo Free State.

Ade is also concerned about the Balkan war, but the starting point of Ade's concern about the Balkan war is different from that of Roque. Ade is concerned about whether the Balkan war will affect the Elizabeth oil field under the control of the umbrella company.

It is also a tragedy to say that, as the Prime Minister of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, Adelaide did not know that most of the peninsula has become the sphere of influence of the umbrella company, so Adelaide was very surprised when Rock explained.

"You mean to say that the Najd Sultanate is a colony of the Umbrella Company—" Ade really didn't expect that 50 years after the British East India Company was cancelled, there are still similar companies revived on the peninsula.

In fact, it can’t be said that Stoudemire’s South African Company is actually similar to the East India Company. The East India Company was kicked away after being used by the British government, but Rhodesia joined the South African Company before it had time to kick the South African Company. Africa, let the British government have nothing to kick.

"Don't use such ugly words. How could it be a colony? It should be said that the Najd Sultanate is very yearning for our southern Africa, so it is willing to become a vassal of the umbrella company." Rock is rebellious, and now he dares to tamper with Ade's Meaning.

"Naizhi seems to be a desert area. Is there a gold mine in the desert?" Ade had worked in Egypt and had a good understanding of the peninsula.

The desert in the peninsula is not the same thing as the desert in southern Africa.

The deserts of the peninsula and North Africa are real deserts, where there is no grass and yellow sand everywhere, and there are only a few oases for human habitat.

The largest desert in southern Africa refers to the Kalahari Desert. In fact, a more accurate expression of the Kalahari Desert should be the inland dry area. The desert is so large that almost the entire Bechuanaland State is included, including Southwest Africa and Part of Southern Africa.

To be precise, the Kalahari Desert has not yet formed. Even in the 21st century, there are obvious rainy seasons and dry seasons here. The dry season is indeed dry and desolate, and many rivers will dry up. But in the rainy season, plants will use the short opportunity to grow wildly. Vegetation Lush, lush pastures, and many wild animals, there is no obvious difference from other parts of Africa.

The most obvious example is Ngami Lake. The current Ngami Lake covers an area of ​​more than 5 square kilometers. In the 21st century, there are only more than 200 spots left. The damage to the environment caused by more than 100 years of crazy plundering can be seen.

"Maybe, who knows, but there must be oil." Rock also doesn't know if there is gold in the peninsula, and there is a lot of black gold anyway.

"How many?" Ade asked nonsense.

"I don't know!" Rock said simply.

Oil reserves are like Schrödinger's cat. With the advancement of exploration technology, they will continue to increase. Another time and space world has been predicting how many years the remaining oil on the earth will be able to be mined since the 50s. As a result, decades have passed, but Not only is there no shortage of oil for mining, but more and more. It is seriously suspected that this is a panic deliberately created by oil countries to raise oil prices.

"The Persians are rebellious, can you guarantee that they will be obedient?" Ade knows the Persians very well. Speaking of which, this is also an ancient civilization. Although it is declining now, there must be pride in his heart. During the Crusades, Europe The peninsula was defeated and lost, so now European countries are adopting another method to gradually increase their influence on Persia.

"Now it is different from 1000 years ago. Damascus steel was famous all over the world 1000 years ago. The Persians used Damascus steel to dominate the battlefield. Now is the era of hot weapons. We no longer need to fight with the enemy with bayonets, and we can eliminate them from 500 meters away. Enemy." Rock is not worried about this problem, the times are developing, and the method must be improved.

Damascus steel is actually not produced by Persians, but produced in India. On September 1191, 9 AD, the main force of the Third Crusade approached the city of Jaffa under the leadership of King Richard the Lionheart of England. His enemy Salah al-Din, the founding monarch of the Ayub dynasty.

Before the battle began, Saladin sent someone to the front of the Crusaders and called out to invite Richard and Saladin to meet.

Richard readily agreed. After the meeting, in order to demonstrate to Richard, Saladin took out a veil and threw it into the air, then pulled out his sword and swung it at the veil. The scarf was cut in half.

So since that day, there has been a legend circulating in Europe: There is an unknown metal material in the East, and the swords forged from it are extremely sharp.

This material is Damascus steel.

Regardless of the authenticity of this legend, even if weapons made of Damascus steel are indestructible, they will not be effective in front of modern weapons. The fact that the Persian Empire has now become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal country is proof.

Rock controls the Persians on the peninsula in exactly the same way as Britain controls the colonies. The single colonial economy determines that the Persians on the peninsula cannot get rid of Rock’s control. Ali Rashid’s troops will unify the peninsula with the advanced weapons provided by the umbrella company. If Ali Rashid is disobedient, Umbrella Company only needs to stop the supply of ammunition to Najd Sultanate, and the Lee Enfield equipped by Ali Rashid's troops will become a fire stick.

"What is your positioning for the peninsula?" Ade was concerned about Rock's arrangement for the peninsula.

"The oil in the peninsula is very important to the future world. We will definitely annex the peninsula." Rock is simple and rude. The concept of a puppet state is actually not popular yet. Before the self-government, southern Africa was directly a part of the United Kingdom. There is no such thing as southern Africa. , Cape is the official name of Southern Africa, just like London is just a region.

"Enclave?" Ade asked.

"Yes, the enclave." Rock confirmed.

"It's unlikely—" Ade worried.

"Before the Najd Sultanate unified the peninsula, many people also believed that it was impossible to unify the peninsula." Rock firmly believed that man would prevail. Thinking that Russia has nothing to do, who would have thought that one pole of the world would collapse during the Cold War.

"Peach Blossom Fan" said that seeing him build a tall building, seeing him entertain guests, seeing his building collapse, so don't worry about some things, time will give the best answer, and doing your job well is the greatest responsibility to yourself.

"You let go and do it, and I'll deal with other issues." Ade's trust in Rock is really immeasurable. Even if Philip came to power, he probably wouldn't be able to give this level of support.

Of course, Rock reciprocated, so Rock was willing to share the lottery revenue with the federal government. So far, Christian has sold a total of 500 million rand lottery tickets, and the total operating cost plus bonus distribution is less than 500 million. Now The lottery has become the most important source of revenue for the federal government.
