Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

1543 Sending the God of Plague

It is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders. Kitchina is a traditional soldier, and this is deeply ingrained.

 Kitchener joined the Royal Engineers at the age of 18 and has served for more than 57 years.

 The average life expectancy of the current population has not yet reached 57 years. Kitchener was far more loyal to the British Empire than Rock imagined.

 Emotionally speaking, Kitchener really does not want to leave southern Africa.

 But when emotion and loyalty collide, Kitchina chooses loyalty. This is the last persistence of a veteran.

“Locke, in 1870 I joined the French army as a volunteer and participated in the Franco-Prussian War. In France, I realized that strong national strength is the most powerful guarantee of national interests.” Kitchener calmed down and told Locke about his experience.

 Rock smiled, no matter what Kitchin did, Rock would support Kitchin’s choice.

Of course, Roark’s support for Kitchener does not mean that he will accept the PUA of George V and the British government.

"Southern Africa is already a powerful country and the mainstay of the Commonwealth. Although there are still many people in London who are unwilling to admit this." Kitchina spoke earnestly. Rock suddenly discovered that Kitchina's face was full of wrinkles and his eye sockets were deep.

His eyes and tears have become cloudy.

After all, he is 76 years old. If not for Roque's reminder, Kitchinna would have died in a shipwreck in the second year after the outbreak of the world war. In this time and space, Kitchinna is now in good health and looks like he will live for another ten years.

No problem either.

"Don't blame His Majesty. Your Majesty is also forced to do nothing. You have to know that the present situation in Southern Africa is inseparable from His Majesty's trust in you. You cannot live up to this trust. Trust and loyalty are the greatest virtues in the world."

Kitchener did not want the relationship between southern Africa and the British Empire to reach a deadlock due to his own reasons.

 Roque didn’t say anything. George V must have trusted Roque, but this trust was mixed with too many other factors.

Roque is not only burdened with the trust of George V. Compared with George V, the trust of 67 million people in southern Africa is heavier. Kitchener can do anything for the British Empire, and Roque can do the same for southern Africa.

anything.

"No matter what, you have to admit that without the British Empire, there would be no Southern Africa today. I know you have resentment in your heart, but don't let resentment blind your eyes and your heart, Southern Africa." Kitchener paused, and then

Then he reluctantly said: "Southern Africa is not yet ready to fight the world on its own!"

Roque still doesn’t speak. If people don’t push, they don’t know how much potential they have. The same is true in southern Africa.

 In Kitchener's view, it is probably true that southern Africa cannot break away from the British Empire.

But Rock doesn't think so. Not to mention the Commonwealth countries, the United States, France, Japan, and Italy will all support Southern Africa's separation from the British Empire. If Southern Africa remains within the Commonwealth, it will indeed be able to exclusively enjoy the Commonwealth market, but at the same time

Southern African businesses and goods will also face significant restrictions on access to other countries' markets.

 In short, it is a blessing in disguise.

At this time, the crowd in the square in front of the Governor's Palace was gathering more and more, and the sound was getting louder and louder.

"Come on, let's go out and show our faces together. No matter what the future holds, I am still the Governor of Southern Africa!" Kitchener stood up and went to the mirror at the door to tidy up his clothes.

It was then that Rock noticed that Kitchina was wearing a marshal's uniform that was only worn on important occasions.

Looking at Kitchinna’s thin back and sparse white hair, Roque could only look up to the sky and sigh.

There were tens of thousands of people in the square in front of the Government House, not only Pretoria citizens, but also a large number of tourists who came to Pretoria during the Commonwealth Games.

 In front of the Governor's Palace, the military and police were standing ready. Gendarmes, policemen, and National Guard soldiers who rushed over set up a cordon in front of the Governor's Palace. There were also ambulances and fire trucks on standby around the square.

 The people were excited and shouted slogans, hoping that Kitchener could stay in southern Africa.

Despite the large number of people, the order in the square was pretty good. The people did not attack the cordon set up by the military and police. Students from Pretoria State University spontaneously maintained order, and reporters with cameras were busy capturing every memorable moment.

, many people carried homemade placards to express their retention and gratitude to Kitchina.

 When the door of the flower hall opened, loud cheers erupted from the square.

 Louis and the staff of the Governor's Palace were busy arranging microphones. In this case, Kitchener would definitely have to say a few words.

 The security personnel on the rooftop are already in place, most of them are snipers and observers. At this time, no suspicion can be ignored.

 When Kitchina walked out of the flower hall, her body trembled for a moment.

 Rock subconsciously supported Kitchinna.

Kitchinna moved slowly, but firmly refused Roque’s support.

“Gentlemen,” Kitchina just started to speak, but was interrupted by cheers and applause.

 Kitchinna was silent, smiled, and waved.

After a long time, the cheers and applause gradually subsided, and Kitchener also calmed down: "Gentlemen and ladies, I am Herbert Horatio Kitchener, Governor-General of Southern Africa."

 Applause and cheers resume.

“The last time I came to Southern Africa was during the Second Boer War. I was appointed by His Majesty as Commander-in-Chief of the British Expeditionary Force, commanding the British Expeditionary Force to defeat the enemy and establish Southern Africa.”

“After the World War, I was appointed by His Majesty as the Governor-General of Southern Africa. I thought that was the end of my career, but unexpectedly it opened the most exciting page of my life.”

"Southern Africa has given me many wonderful memories. I would like to thank Locke for his trust in me. He is an excellent soldier, an excellent citizen of the British Empire, and a natural commander. We cooperated tacitly during the World War, and he led the expeditionary force on the front line.

Fighting bloody battles, I did my best in London to provide all the necessary supplies for the expeditionary force."

"I want to thank you for your trust in me. I feel your enthusiasm, but I also want to ask you to fulfill my last wish as a veteran. May God bless my king and may the British Empire prosper. Never forget our mission and honor.

, faith, hard work, and undying loyalty!”

Kitchina’s speech was interrupted by applause and cheers many times. Roque said nothing and looked at the motorcade in the distance.

 That was the motorcade of King George V.

 Seeing this scene, I wonder what George V would think.

 That evening, Kitchener held a banquet at the Government House to entertain the leaders of the Commonwealth from afar.

The Commonwealth Games is coming to an end tomorrow. This Commonwealth Games is destined to be remembered by everyone. In the days to come, when we look back on this half-month, many causes and effects were determined in this half-month.

Despite the tight schedule, Kitchener's dinner was still perfect.

No way, during this period, the staff of the Governor's Palace and the Palace of Justice were really familiar with the process of banquets. There were banquets almost every day in Pretoria during this period. For half a month, in addition to breakfast, Roque

I have never eaten at home.

Of course Roque will not neglect his family, and many banquets allow family members to be brought along.

 There is no doubt that Kitchener was the star of the dinner.

From the very beginning of the dinner, Kitchener became the focus of the dinner. King George V was always by Kitchener's side, surrounded by leaders of the Commonwealth member states, and the stars were cheering.

 Rock was sitting in the corner of the banquet hall, surrounded by Stoudemire and Henry, the iron triangle that had remained unchanged for five million words.

"How about giving Haig a blow? That old guy is annoying. I didn't like him before." Stoudemire held a glass of wine with a sinister voice. Stoudemire also served on the British War Committee during the World War.

, dealt with Haig.

"Haha, there's no need to bother. There are so many shipwrecks now. A ship of the Fawalt Steel Group sank unexpectedly in the outer port of Walvis Bay some time ago. The insurance company has been investigating for two months, and there is no conclusion yet." Henry was even more ruthless, so he simply

Once and for all.

Rock shook his head. Killing Haig was indeed a success, but there were many hidden dangers, so it was not worth it.

What do you say about the Governor? His power is quite big, but very small. In the member states of the Commonwealth, the laws of each country are different. The Governor of Southern Africa is a mascot in Southern Africa. For the federal government of Southern Africa and the Southern

The African Parliament has no power to dictate. If Roque is not willing, the Governor's order cannot even leave the Government House.

 When Kitchener was the governor, what was the relationship between Rock and Kitchener? The relationship between the Governor's Palace and the Palace of Justice was very harmonious.

 Now if it is replaced by Heig, the future will be hard to say.

Roque is building a new Governor's Palace in Hot Spring Valley. It is outrageous to kick Haig to Cape Town, but he will not let Haig live opposite the Palace of Justice and be an eyesore.

As for the current Governor's Mansion, anything can be done. If it doesn't work, it can be turned into a nursing home for Ade and Philip to live in.

  It won’t be given to Haig anyway.

"London is now targeting Southern Africa everywhere. Why should we accept this idleness and simply break away from the Commonwealth and become completely independent? With our strength in Southern Africa, we can completely abandon the British Empire." Stoudemire has always had a grudge against London, and his attitude is more fierce than Rock's.

.

This is normal. Stoudemire's behavior would be considered a "British traitor" in the UK.

  As we all know, compatriots are usually the ones who attack their compatriots the most ruthlessly, and this has been proven in the world war that just passed.

During the World War, according to British statistics, among the British Expeditionary Forces, those who were the bravest and suffered the highest casualty rate in the battle against Germany were precisely the Germans.

"Abandonment is out of the question. The British Empire is willing to cooperate, and of course we will not refuse it. But if the British Empire continues like this, we must at least be prepared." Henry is not much better than Stoudemire, and the capitalists have dark hearts.

of.

"We will discuss these issues later. Are you ready for tomorrow's arrangements?" Roque had his own plans. It was too early to say anything now. He had to send George V away first.

  ps: I don’t know what’s going on in the broad daylight. I don’t know who started singing with a loudspeaker in the morning. My brain hurts.
