African Entrepreneurship Record
Chapter 88 Conflict Escalation
Nzela.
Colonial border post in East Africa.
Mainly responsible for monitoring the movements of the exiled indigenous tribes and preventing the return of the indigenous tribes.
So far, the results of this "purge" campaign have generally met the expectations of the East African colonial government.
The northwest has been turned into a pot of porridge. War always kills people. The colonial plan to eliminate the local indigenous population has been achieved.
It's not that there are indigenous tribes who want to return to the East. The colonial government of East Africa has established dozens of military strongholds, large and small, on the border with the northwest countries.
A one-way valve is formed, allowing only the natives to exit but not enter.
Nzela is one such military stronghold.
The northwest corner of the East African colonial defense was mainly a straight line from the southwest corner of the Great Lake (Lake Victoria) to the northeast corner of Lake Solon (Lake Tanganyika).
It is about more than 300 kilometers long, with a military stronghold set up every 20 to 30 kilometers. Patrol personnel are arranged between these strongholds to patrol the border areas continuously.
…
The northwest countries, which were deeply harmed by the Eastern Bantu tribes, began to cooperate with each other.
Although the East Bantu people caught all countries by surprise, and the domestic situation in each country was relatively turbulent, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
As the center of an indigenous country, it still has some strength. At least the royal family still has an army directly under its control.
Even though many places, blocked by traffic and enemies, were temporarily separated from the kingdom, the center still occupied the largest land area.
Facing the menacing East Bantu tribes, the northwest countries that had been dealing with each other for many years put aside their past hatred and prepared to join forces to suppress and clean out the barbarians.
With the arrival of subsequent refugees, the Eastern Bantu tribes also began to expand in size. After all, the indigenous people driven out by the East African colonial government were not all large tribes with hundreds or thousands of people, but there were also some with dozens or even a few people. Small tribes and some scattered natives.
These small tribes and individuals were merged into the large tribes of the Eastern Bantu tribes, which strengthened the strength of the Eastern Bantu tribes.
As a result, the scale of the war escalated, and the nobles who originally lived here formed an alliance to jointly attack the Eastern Bantu tribes.
After the Eastern Bantu tribes gained population replenishment, their strength increased greatly, and they were not afraid. The two sides started fighting in the area west of the Great Lake (Lake Victoria).
As a result of the war, the social order of the northwest countries was disrupted. The slaves who were originally used for development and cultivation took advantage of the chaos to join both sides of the war, or fled into the wilderness.
When the original nobles wanted to fight the Eastern Bantu people, they naturally had to recruit a large number of slaves to serve as cannon fodder, which further aggravated the situation of land abandonment.
The land was abandoned and food production was reduced. Families who were not already wealthy were even worse. In order to compete for the remaining resources, the two sides fought more vigorously.
Facts have proved that when the nobles of the northwest countries got serious, they did have an advantage over scattered tribes like the Eastern Bantu people.
As the most advanced area of indigenous productivity in East Africa, the northwest countries not only have more advanced social systems and organizational capabilities than the East Bantu tribes, but also have more advanced iron forging capabilities.
As for the East Bantu tribes, their advantage over the northwest countries lies in their powerful destructive power. After all, as civilized countries, the northwest countries also have construction attributes, while the East Bantu tribes who are still in primitive society only know how to compete for resources. .
Fortunately, the aristocratic forces of the northwest countries are not desolate. Due to the narrow land area between the west of the Great Lake (Lake Victoria) and the East African Rift Valley, "friendly matches" are often held between countries.
Moreover, as a slavery civilization, the nobles of the northwest countries naturally had a monopoly on force and were responsible for suppressing the slaves in their respective jurisdictions.
In other words, these nobles are actually primitive military nobles.
In contrast, the Eastern Bantu tribes do not have nobility. They mainly elect the strong men in the tribe as chiefs.
There was actually no way for the Eastern Bantu tribes to plunder the northwest countries. After being expelled from the East African colonies, they lost their hunting grounds, and animals on the grasslands were their main source of food.
In addition, coming all the way from the east, traveling long distances and having an empty stomach, in order to survive, the Eastern Bantu tribes could only live by robbing the lords of the northwest countries.
The northwest nobles, who had the advantage of iron weapons and strong organizational skills, quickly gained an advantage over the Eastern Bantu tribes after uniting as one.
The balance of victory in the war slowly tilted towards the northwest countries. The nobles of the northwest countries who hated the Eastern Bantu tribes would not accept their surrender, as long as the captives were executed immediately.
The tribes of the Eastern Bantu people, who were at a disadvantage, saw that there was no way to survive if they surrendered, and they also carried out deadly attacks on the northwest countries.
The hatred value of both sides is getting fuller and fuller, and the bloodiness of the war is getting stronger and stronger. Both sides will put their opponents to death as the only goal of the war.
The winner lives, the loser dies. There are no fancy operations, the goal is to eliminate the last person on the opponent's side.
This battle lasted for more than three months and finally ended with the victory of the northwest countries.
Naturally, all the Eastern Bantu tribes could not be killed, but only some old, weak, sick and disabled people were left, who were made into slaves by the northwest countries to supplement the labor force loss caused by the war.
This war, which is not remembered by the world, caused at least millions of vendettas. The entire northwest countries and many regions fell into a state of chaos.
What's even worse is that after the war, the corpses of both sides were not effectively disposed of. In the past, when the war was small-scale, wild animals could get rid of the uncared for corpses.
The scale of this war, coupled with the hatred of the northwest countries towards the Eastern Bantu tribes, resulted in a large number of corpses being exposed in the wilderness.
Even nature had no time to decompose so many corpses, and the horrific plague began to spread in the northwest countries.
The tragic situation of the northwest countries was reported to the government by the East African colonial soldiers on the border. In order to prevent the plague from affecting the colonies, the East African colonial government strengthened the blockade of the entire northwest countries.
This time even Kenya, which borders the Kingdom of Buganda, was heavily guarded.
In the tropics, diseases are quite terrifying. Every year, many people in the East African colonies are infected. This is based on the premise that the East African colonies attach great importance to hygiene.
In order to prevent the plague from being brought into the East African colonies, the East African colonial government ordered the soldiers guarding the borders of the East African colonies and the northwest countries not to let a living creature pass.
Even if it is a mouse or a snake, it must be shot immediately.
At the same time, the East African colonial government urgently ordered a large amount of disinfection and sterilization agents from Europe to carry out large-scale disinfection work on the borders of the East African colonies and northwest countries.
Under strict defense, the East African colonies successfully blocked the spread of the plague to the East African colonies.
The northwest countries have completely turned into a land of ten houses and nine empty spaces. The farther south the country is, the worse it is. On the contrary, the northern part of the Buganda Kingdom, the Kingdom of Turu and the Kingdom of Gitara have been least affected.
I really can’t understand why some people say that the protagonist kneels down to lick the Qing Dynasty. Mader, I feel uncomfortable reading the book review. Ernst kneels down in front of the Manchu Lord and becomes his grandson! Or do you support its development? The only mention of Manchu officials in the original article is that the Far East Office in Hechingen intimidated local officials to prevent them from hindering immigration work. Some people say that this book is a "patriotic" article. Yes, it is a patriotic article. Why does the protagonist naturally hate Britain? As a German, what's wrong with the fact that Britain is digging a hole for it knowing that Britain will be Germany's competitor in the future? What does it matter even if the protagonist is a nationalist? Japan is a regime supported by Britain, so what's wrong with the protagonist digging a hole for it? Moreover, the protagonist also sells some coffee through normal trade methods, but some people can't stand it. Wasn't it normal to add some additives in that era? And no one would think that the Germans looked up to Japan at that time! Is there a problem with the protagonist blatantly discriminating against Japan? I accept the impudence in the article, but I will never admit it when you say that the protagonist kneels down and licks her. The protagonist has no direct contact with any other country except for the Austro-Hungarian royal family and the Prussian royal family. You want to say that the protagonist kneels and licks the royal families of the two countries. I also admit it, Mad, when you say you kneel down and lick Manqing, I am really angry to death! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
