Competition within the military in southern Africa is very fierce.

After the end of the World War, there were only two divisions in southern Africa for a long time. If the generals did not perform better, they would have to retire from active service.

Even Don Juan left the army for a while and went to the navy, which shows how fierce the competition within the army was.

  In the days when the army is downsizing, life is not easy for the generals. Some retire sadly, while others go to the Army Academy to become instructors. There are countless people competing for the director position of overseas military bases. The generals have tried countless ways to stay.

Now the situation has greatly improved. While the British and French were still struggling with congressional appropriations, southern Africa had quietly begun to expand its military.

 The Army has now expanded to seven divisions with the addition of two ace divisions. The five additional divisions are all armored divisions according to European standards.

The Southern African Union troops still have 12 divisions, and all of these troops are mainly light infantry. Once a world war breaks out again, the Union troops should still be cannon fodder.

 The biggest change is the Marine Corps. In the beginning, there was only one brigade of Marine Corps in Southern Africa, stationed in Halifax.

With the increasing number of overseas military bases, the Marine Corps in Southern Africa has now increased to 10 brigades, with two each deployed in Halifax, Cyprus, Port Elizabeth, and Changi Naval Base with four.

  Excluding alliance forces, the total strength of the Army and Marine Corps has exceeded 250,000.

 If the air force and navy are included, the total strength exceeds 600,000.

The expansion of the military has put tremendous pressure on the federal government. Last year, the British military budget was only 20 million pounds, and that of southern Africa was 220 million rand.

 It is important to know that the military expansion in southern Africa is still in progress.

 The Abyssinian Empire lost the Battle of Mechu, and Leopold was the saddest.

 After the outbreak of the war, Leopold conducted four transactions with the Abyssinian Empire. The Abyssinian Empire paid all in gold, and the price was of course very beautiful.

 The Abyssinian Empire lost the Battle of Mechu, and Leopold lost a major client, but things took a new turn.

Haile Selassie I was unwilling to fail. After the Italians had broken through the Mechu defense line and approached Addis Ababa, Haile Selassie I prepared to move the capital to the Gray area in the west to continue fighting.

  On February 27, 20 days after the Battle of Mechu, Umbrella Company welcomed a special guest to its headquarters in Berbera.

On this day, the Umbrella Headquarters was heavily guarded, with mercenaries in full gear patrolling the streets. The street in front of the Umbrella Headquarters was blocked, and no vehicles or pedestrians were allowed to pass.

The Umbrella Company even brought out armored vehicles and set up roadblocks at both ends of the street so that even the Berbera colonial government's hooded policemen could not enter.

Leopard and Nick Bernard were waiting anxiously inside the Umbrella Company, along with Stuart Jamie who came from Port Elizabeth and was sent from the Umbrella Company headquarters.

"Haile Selassie I will soon go into exile. He himself wants to continue fighting against the Italians. However, the ministers of the Abyssinian Empire do not want Haile Selassie I to stay and lead Abyssinia in the future.

Stuart Jamie, who belongs to the Xinian Empire and may be Duke Imru, is wearing a black formal suit, the waistcoat is neatly buttoned, and the white shirt at the collar is very conspicuous.

“Is this the Duke of Imru we are waiting for?” Leopold was looking forward to it. He was reluctant to part with the Abyssinian Empire as a big customer.

"Yes, this is Duke Imru." Stuart Jamie crossed his legs and held a cigar produced in Brazil. After the establishment of the new Brazilian government, cigars produced in Brazil were very popular in southern Africa.

popular.

 Each region has its own specialties.

 Southern Africa actually produces cigars, and the quality is also good, but compared to Brazilian cigars, they are less gimmicky.

Brazilian cigars are said to be rolled by unmarried girls on their own legs.

 Look, this sounds like LSP. If a cigar manufacturer in southern Africa dares to do this, Brad's office will not kill you.

However, this kind of gimmick perfectly suits the preferences of some people. They just like such weird things. The more unusual and unpopular the better, otherwise their specialness will not be reflected.

“Can Duke Imru lead the Abyssinians to defeat Italy?” Nick Bernard wondered.

"Maybe, maybe not, who knows? But since the Abyssinians are willing to try, we have to give them some support. Who makes us in southern Africa peace-loving?" Stuart's expression was half-smiling, arrogant and indifferent.

, Standard Anglo-Saxon.

 At ten o'clock in the evening, a black car entered the street where the Umbrella Company was located, and Stuart and Leopold greeted it at the foyer of the Umbrella Company.

  Duke Imru is also an African. He was born in Addis Ababa, educated in the United Kingdom, and is very proficient in English.

It can be seen that Duke Imru is under great pressure. He wears a black cloak that covers his head and upper body, but his trousers are white and paired with white leather shoes.

 I don’t know why, but Africans like white things very much.

 Many people may not know that Africans also need to wear sunscreen, although the areas they apply are limited to the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet.

 Only these two parts of the African body are lighter in color.

 Although the probability of these two parts being exposed to direct sunlight is extremely low.

 “Welcome to civilized society” Stuart revealed in one sentence, which was a bit hurtful.

"Thank you, I'm sorry for making you wait until now." Duke Imru was not in the mood to care, or he was used to it.
