Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

Signing the "Mutual Non-Aggression Treaty" with Southern Africa is of little significance to Germany. Even if it is not signed, it is difficult for a war to break out between Southern Africa and Germany. Lake Victoria, the northernmost point of Southern Africa, is more than 100 meters away from Berlin in a straight line.

6,000 kilometers, if you include the detour distance, it’s over 10,000 kilometers.

With a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers, even if you want to go on an expedition, it is very difficult. The difficulty of logistical supply will make you want to die. If you think about how Russia lost the Battle of Tsushima, you will know how difficult the expedition is.

For Europe, southern Africa is also a relatively safe corner. Being far away from the European continent ensures that southern Africa can be like the United States, and it is difficult for war to reach southern Africa itself.

However, Southern Africa does not lack supply points in Europe. There is St. Roch in the English Channel and Cyprus in the Mediterranean. Therefore, Mustache hopes that Roque can visit Southern Africa. This will greatly promote the relationship between Southern Africa and Germany.

The problem is that Mustache is very busy at work, and so is Rock.

So why is Rock visiting Germany and not Mustache visiting southern Africa?

What's more, we have to take into account the mood of our French allies, so our visit to Germany will have to wait.

"What's going on in Japan?" Rock was still concerned about the Far East.

"Japan was preparing to build a new level of super battleship some time ago, and it did not hesitate to abolish two army units - but there seems to be some problem with the Japanese, and there has been no movement until now." Louis smiled, the empire was killed -

Now the consequences have finally appeared.

Regarding Japan, Rock is actually not too worried.

Even if Japan jumps again, where is its overall strength? After cutting off the input from the United States, Japan will be a turtle in the urn.

Rock's only concern now was British Malaya.

Borneo was selected by Rock as a bridgehead against Japan. Not all of Borneo belonged to East India. The northern coastal area belonged to British Malaya. This had a huge impact on the deployment of the Indian Ocean Fleet.

The most important thing for beach landing is to establish an advance base. There is also a saying in "Sun Tzu: March" of "attacking halfway across the country", which means to give the enemy a devastating blow before the enemy has completed the landing.

Now the problem arises, northern Borneo belongs to British Malaya.

According to the British military strength in the Far East, it was obviously unable to resist the Japanese attack.

In this way, even if the Indian Ocean Fleet deploys heavy troops in Borneo, it will not be able to achieve the effect of "half-crossing and attacking". Then Japan can easily establish a forward base through British Malaya and launch an attack on East Indian Borneo in an orderly manner.

.

Although Roque was confident, even if Japan easily landed, it would be impossible to defeat the Northern Rhodesian Division.

But if the Japanese army could be defeated easily, why choose a more complicated process?

"Send a telegram to Tang Li and ask him to find a way to solve this problem." Rock didn't want to break up with Britain yet, so he kept a line with each other so that they could meet each other in the future.

"Okay, Lord -" Louis said with a rich expression, East India, Borneo, it seems like Brad's office can also have a hand in this.

When Roque was about to test Tang Li, Tang Li was at Shilongmen in northern Borneo, using a telescope to observe Kuching not far away.

Kuching is the oldest city in East Malay. In Malay, Kuching means cat. The locals like cats very much. The city symbol of Kuching is a cute white cat.

As the largest city in East Malaysia, Kuching is known as the "Water City". Rubber, coconut, and pepper are Kuching's specialties. Unfortunately, the city's population is less than 50,000.

In 1931, the total population of British Malaya was less than 3 million, more than 80% of whom lived in West Malaya. East Malaya accounted for 60% of the area of ​​British Malaya, but its population was only the total population.

About 20 percent.

After the independence of East India, nearly one million Chinese from British Malaya migrated to East India, which had a great impact on British Malaya.

"It's a pity that such a good city will be destroyed in the near future." Tang Li put down the telescope in his hand with a melancholy look on his face.

Even if the Indian Ocean Fleet and East India did not launch an attack on Kuching, once war broke out between southern Africa and Japan, Kuching would definitely become the target of Japan's attack. With the strength of British Malaya, it would probably not be able to stop the Japanese attack.

Tang Li is now considering how to incorporate East Malaysia into the defense system of the Indian Ocean Fleet and East India. There are more than 50,000 troops stationed in Changi Naval Base in Southern Africa. The total strength of East India now exceeds 300,000, and they are undergoing rigorous training day and night.

.

The nominal population of East India is now only 11 million. This is because only Chinese and people of Chinese ancestry are eligible to become East Indians. In fact, the population of East India exceeds 60 million, which is more than Britain and France, and about the same as Germany.

As a country of the Southern African Union, strictly speaking, East India cannot have an army. After Japan withdrew from the League of Nations, Southern Africa relaxed its restrictions on East India, and East India frantically expanded its army to 300,000, most of whom were East Indian natives.

"How about we talk to the British and incorporate East Malaysia into our defense system." Ramsden is now the deputy chief of the East India Army. The 300,000-strong East India Army looks quite scary, but in fact

It will take some time to train to the point where you can fight.

This is also thanks to the strong support of southern Africa, otherwise East India would not even have enough weapons for its troops.

After Southern Africa switched to semi-automatic rifles, there are still a lot of Lee Enfields in stock, and there is no pressure at all to arm 300,000 people.

As for other supplies needed by the troops, those that can be provided locally can be purchased from the local area, and those that cannot be provided locally can be purchased from southern Africa. In fact, it does not cost much.

The East Indian troops, which are mainly composed of indigenous people, are not trained according to elite standards. Strictly speaking, they are actually cannon fodder. Of course, even cannon fodder troops can produce impressive results after several months of rigorous training when sent to the battlefield.

In terms of combat effectiveness, although the East Indian government does not have the ability to equip its troops with tanks and helicopters, it does have a lot of machine guns and mortars, as well as heavy artillery. However, the requirements for gunners are relatively high. Based on the average education level of East Indian soldiers,

It is still relatively difficult to train a qualified gunner.

It is said that East India also established a public education system imitating southern Africa, but it did not implement compulsory education. Although Chinese is now the only official language in East India, there are not many local indigenous people who can understand Chinese, and they cannot even understand the words.

I thought too much about going to school, and the East Indian government obviously does not prepare language schools for the indigenous people. Fortunately, in recent years, more and more indigenous people have taken the initiative to learn Chinese. The East Indian government does not discriminate against these people, and they cannot be of the same race.

Let’s talk about the same article first.

"If Southern Africa remains within the Commonwealth, then this may be possible, but now -" Tang Li sneered, just look at the Changi Naval Base.

When Southern Africa first purchased Changi Naval Base, Southern Africa was still within the Commonwealth.

Because the area of ​​the Changi Naval Base planned by the British government was too small, the area of ​​the Changi Naval Base after the Indian Ocean Fleet took over has expanded more than ten times. Whether it is the Lion City or Johor, it can be said that it has everything it wants.

Now that Southern Africa has left the Commonwealth, the Johoreans are actually trying to claim Pulau Tekong from the Indian Ocean Fleet. This is just too much. The Indian Ocean Fleet has invested millions of rands in Pulau Tekong, the only marine brigade in the country.

It is stationed in Pulau Tekong, so it is still impossible to pay it back. After all, the Indian Ocean Fleet directly bought out Pulau Tekong with real money.

See clearly, it is a buyout, not a lease, nor a usurpation. There is an agreement. If you want to tear it up, you have to see whether the guns of the Indian Ocean Fleet agree or not.

So in the past, if southern Africa talked with British Malaya, it might be possible to include East Malaya in its defense system. But now it is definitely not possible. Even if the Malays agree, the British are unlikely to agree.

While Tang Li and Lumsden were observing Kuching, at the military camp on the eastern outskirts of Kuching, Smollett, the business manager of Nyasaland Military Industry, was visiting Major Bridges, the commander of the British Army in East Malay.

You may not believe it, but in East Malaysia, which covers an area of ​​nearly 200,000 square kilometers, the British army only stationed one battalion with less than 600 soldiers, and most of the soldiers in this battalion were colonial servants composed of Indians.

The combat effectiveness of the Indian army is terrible. During the World War, India also claimed to have sent an expeditionary force with a total strength of one million people to Europe. Unfortunately, the results were very few, and there were not even many records of participation in the war. Most of the time, the Indian army was responsible for logistics.

.

Instead of cherishing the lives of Indians, the Indians were really overwhelmed by the heavy responsibility. They sent Indian troops to attack, but the Indians pretended to be dead and were beaten, scolded, and punished, but they would not jump out of the trenches anyway.

It is even more tragic to send Indian troops to defend. Until the end of the world war, many Indian soldiers did not even know how to maintain the most basic guns. I am afraid that such troops can only be used as donkeys.

The same goes for the Indian troops stationed in Kuching. It has to be said that although the British are in decline, the basic nutrition of the troops is still guaranteed. Therefore, the Indian troops stationed in Kuching and wearing big turbans all look pretty good.

He is in good health, has big shoulders and a round waist, and his posture of holding a gun on guard is very powerful. Unfortunately, everyone knows that this is just the way he is.

Smollett came to Bridges to sell weapons.

It is very frustrating to say that during the First World War, Britain produced at least nearly 20 million Lee Enfields. It is estimated that there are still nearly 10 million brand-new and unopened Lee Enfields in British warehouses.

However, the British colonial troops in Malaya were still equipped with the Martini Henry that was installed before the Second Boer War.

This makes people very helpless. The Martini Henry is a rifle that was born in the 1970s. It has been more than half a century now. Even if the British Malayan Army is a second-line force, it cannot be like this.
