Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

1349 Second Lieutenant Andrew

Unlike the turbulent British political situation, the British Royal Navy is still the most powerful fleet in the world.

After the signing of the Washington Naval Treaty, the British Royal Navy received two of the most advanced super battleships. After adding two aircraft carriers, the number of aircraft carriers also reached four, ranking first in the world.

However, this "world-beating" glory is due to the addition of the Southern African Navy. The Southern African Navy is now also equipped with powerful ships and artillery. Four battleships have been put into service within one year. Two aircraft carriers have been delivered, and one has been given to the Navy.

The Atlantic Fleet led by Patton gave one to the Indian Ocean Fleet led by Jackson Marshall.

Yes, just after the two aircraft carriers were delivered respectively, the Edward Fleet was officially renamed the Indian Ocean Fleet and was still based in Port Edward.

The current Indian Ocean Fleet has one aircraft carrier, one battleship, three heavy cruisers, six light cruisers, 14 destroyers, and more than 20 auxiliary ships. The fleet has a total strength of 22,000 people. Its scale is second to none around the Indian Ocean.

The British Eastern Fleet became more powerful.

 The homeport of the British Eastern Fleet is in the Lion City. It has only a small number of cruisers and destroyers, and is not equipped with battleships and aircraft carriers.

Since the end of the World War, the Royal Navy has conducted joint maritime exercises with the Southern African Navy every year. The exercises include anti-submarine, escort, landing, joint operations, etc.

As the strength of the Southern African Navy gradually increases, the Royal Navy pays more and more attention to the Southern African Navy. In this year's exercise, the Royal Navy dispatched the Mediterranean Fleet, which is second only to the Home Fleet in strength, while Southern Africa dispatched the Indian Ocean Fleet.

, the exercise took place in the Mediterranean Sea between Cyprus and Alexandria.

Although the United States has surpassed the United Kingdom in terms of the number of super battleships, it will still take time to surpass the Huang Navy in terms of combat effectiveness. Like the Royal Navy, the Southern African Navy also attaches great importance to the opportunity for joint exercises with the Royal Navy. Jackson Marshall personally

Led the fleet participating in the exercise to Cyprus.

  The fleet sent by the Indian Ocean Fleet to participate in the exercise includes the flagship battleship "East India", the aircraft carrier "Cape", as well as a heavy cruiser, two light cruisers, and four destroyers.

The warships of the Mediterranean Fleet participating in the exercise are 12 warships, including the flagship "Queen Elizabeth" battleship.

 Before the exercise began, the fleets participating in the exercise assembled in Cyprus and Alexandria respectively. Angel and Arthur expressed a warm welcome to the arrival of the Indian Ocean Fleet.

 Unknowingly, Arthur has been in Cyprus for more than a year. Over the past year, Arthur's performance has been quite satisfactory, which cannot be said to be outstanding, but it is already very good compared to Arthur's age.

 After all, Arthur will only be 20 years old until the New Year.

“General Marshall, welcome to your arrival——” Arthur prepared a grand welcome ceremony for the Indian Ocean Fleet. It was really noisy with gongs and drums and firecrackers blasting——

 Ah, no, this welcome ceremony is too Chinese.

That’s not right either. There must have been a military band, there were gun salutes, there were flags waving, and although it was hard to say there were huge crowds of people, there were thousands of people attending the welcome ceremony.

This is the first time that the Southern African navy has come to the island of Cyprus. The significance is not only limited to participating in exercises, but also to show off muscles.

 A fleet with battleships and aircraft carriers is not considered weak no matter which country it is placed in.

 In fact, the Southern African Navy is now recognized as sixth in the world, second only to the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan, France, and Italy.

This ranking is nominal. In fact, with the strengthening of the naval strength of Southern Africa, some people within the Royal Navy believe that the strength of the Southern African Navy has surpassed the stagnant French Navy and Italian Navy.

 “Good day, Lord Cyprus——” Jackson Marshall treated Arthur with thoughtful etiquette, and the envy in his eyes flashed away.

Even though Jackson Marshall is almost fifty years old, he doesn’t even have a title. Arthur is only 20 years old, but he is already a baron. Who can he ask to reason with?

“General, welcome to Cyprus——” Angel, who wears the rank of lieutenant general like Jackson Marshall, is equally enthusiastic. The headquarters of the League of Nations peacekeeping force is located in Cyprus, and Angel is also a half-landowner.

Jackson Marshall and An Qi exchanged warm greetings. They are all colleagues. An Qi is still Rock's most valued general. Maybe he will skyrocket when he is transferred back to his homeland.

After the welcome ceremony on the pier, there was a welcome dinner in the evening. This time not only the generals of the Indian Ocean Fleet and officers of the League of Nations peacekeeping force attended, but Major General Oliver Ram of the Mediterranean Fleet also came to the scene. Within the next week, Oliver

Rear Admiral Ram will stay in the Indian Ocean Fleet and be responsible for communication between the Indian Ocean Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet.

Overall, the atmosphere of the dinner was very good. The upcoming drills and the chaos in the British domestic political arena were the focus of the guests' exchanges.

"I originally thought that this kind of thing would only happen to us in France, but I didn't expect that it would be the same in the UK -" In the corner of the banquet hall, a peacekeeping force officer from France was in a good mood. This is what happens between the UK and France, they hurt each other but stick together.

Warming.

"Come on, how many prime ministers have you had in France since the World War? Five? Or six?" Immediately, a British military officer retorted, and the British House of Commons launched a motion of no confidence in the government.

Self-correction for good development.

 Could it be the same in France? The selection of prime ministers is like a revolving door. I wish I could have two prime ministers in a month. The new prime minister will be kicked out of the prime minister's office before his chair is warm. This is one of the most dangerous professions in French politics.

“Can you stop talking about these boring issues and let’s talk about the upcoming exercise?” A southern African military officer suggested, which immediately received an enthusiastic response from others.

 What's there to argue about? It's not a very glorious thing anyway. Besides, political matters have nothing to do with soldiers. Soldiers only need to do their own thing.

"Our Normandy-class battleships are not bad in use. To be honest, the performance of the Normandy-class battleships is a bit behind. Otherwise, they would not be sold to you in southern Africa-" Speaking of the exercise, the French officer who was the first to stir up trouble

Get excited right away.

“Come on, did you sell it to Southern Africa because of its poor performance? You can’t build it yourself, right?” Before the Southern African officer could speak, the Royal Navy officer jumped out immediately.

Although the differences between the Royal Navy and the Southern African Navy are relatively large, in terms of daily milking methods, the Royal Navy and the Southern African Navy are consistent.

"Stop, it's not the Normandy-class battleships we purchased in Southern Africa, but those purchased by West Africa and the Congo -" the Southern African officer promptly corrected. This point must be made clear. As a signatory to the Washington Naval Treaty, Southern Africa

, will definitely not actively violate the "Washington Naval Treaty".

But as soon as he said these words, the southern African officer was immediately despised by French officers and Royal Navy officers.

 Yes, the relationship between the three officers is as complicated as the relationship between the three countries. What is this called?

 Seek common ground while reserving differences!

"As for the navy, your Royal Navy, the Southern African Navy, and the French Navy are all scum, so you should invite us, the Imperial Japanese Navy, to participate in the exercises, so that there will be enough -" If you are so arrogant, it must be the Japanese.

Say it out loud.

 The number of Japanese troops in the peacekeeping force is second only to the southern African troops, and of course there are also officers. However, among all the troops, the Japanese troops have the highest casualty rate.

Of course, the Japanese military does not care about these casualties. Playing a greater role in international affairs is the purpose of the Japanese military.

"cut!"

 “Shut up!”

“Your fleet can only be used to bully the Russians——”

Not surprisingly, the Japanese officer’s words led to joint suppression by the British, French, and southern Africans.

Regarding the strength of the Japanese navy, despite its rapid development in recent years, in fact, for mainstream countries, the Japanese navy is really not on the table.

During the world wars, the Japanese navy did not encounter any tests.

As for the earlier Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese Combined Fleet was able to defeat the Russian Expeditionary Force. That was the result of the whole world joining forces to dig holes for Russia. As a result, the Japanese Combined Fleet took a big advantage by waiting for work, and drove half of the world to the Far East.

The Russian fleet was disgraced.

“Assholes, how could you do this?” The Japanese officer probably felt that his self-esteem had been greatly insulted, and blurted out the word starting with F.

 “Haha, can’t you even say it?” The French are very talkative, but they are as timid as Huskies when it comes to things.

“You’re the bastard, you insulted us first——” The British are very confident. If it weren’t for the help of the British Empire, there would be no Japan today.

"What's the matter, have you built two super battleships? Are you willing to pull the battleships over and fight with live ammunition? If you don't sink them within an hour, I will lose -" Southern Africans are the most arrogant and talkative.

meeting.

"You guys just wait -" the Japanese officer just said, "Really, the buffet didn't even have hot dishes. After a few drinks, I ended up like this."

Not long after, An Qi, who was having a hot chat with Jackson Marshall, received a complaint from a Japanese officer.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I will remind Lieutenant Andrew to pay attention to his words. As an Allied force, Captain Andrew should not do this. If a similar incident happens again, I will definitely punish Major Andrew the most severely.

"An Qi's expression was serious. Such matters must be dealt with seriously.

The Japanese officer was very proud after receiving Angel's promise, but then he thought about it carefully and felt that something was not right.

Just after Angel finished speaking, Major General Jackson Marshall and Major General Oliver Lamb looked at Angel a little strangely.
