The East African colonies are actually not of much significance to southern Africa. Everything that is available in East Africa is also available in southern Africa. What is not available in East Africa is also available in southern Africa.

Bullard's office is actually taking precautions. It does not necessarily mean that all areas surrounding southern Africa must be turned into southern African territory. At the very least, it must establish a country that is completely dependent on southern Africa and become a protectorate of southern Africa. In this way, Bullard's office

Only agents will have enough sense of security.

Alvin also felt troubled after learning the specific situation.

Southern Africa is no longer a peaceful autonomous government, but a powerful country covering the entire central and southern Africa, with a total area of ​​tens of millions of square kilometers, and a country with strong influence in the Mediterranean, Near East, Far East, and even South America.

.

Under this situation, the ambitions of the agents in Brad's office are also growing.

British Empire?

Just the afterglow of doom.

America?

Far away in the horizon.

Russia?

It has no influence at all in Africa.

Therefore, even if the East African colonies are not of much value, they can still be used to house the expeditionary officers and soldiers in World War II.

During the last world war, southern Africa gained Tanganyika and German Southwest Africa, allowing hundreds of thousands of southern African expeditionary troops to settle down.

There will be no mandated territories this time, so how to satisfy the expeditionary army’s thirst for land?

After learning the specific situation, Alvin flew back to Pretoria and stated to Roque face to face.

"The United States has the Monroe Doctrine, and the United Kingdom has a continental balance policy. We in Africa, why can't we have our free Africa?" Alvin is full of impetus, and he doesn't care about the international order.

What is international order?

Darwin's theory of evolution says that natural selection, survival of the fittest, and the big fist is the truth.

When the British Empire was rampant across the world, the Royal Fleet was unmatched and no one could compete with it.

Nowadays, Southern Africa is not only dominating the world, at least in the land of Africa, no one can deny the strength of Southern Africa.

So the East African colonies?

Haha, Alvin even started to fantasize about Italian Somalia and British Sudan.

Sudan is not yet divided, it is a condominium between Britain and Egypt.

Don't ask whether southern Africa has the ability to annex Sudan. This country is amazing. 40 people can launch a coup. How difficult do you think it is?

As for free Africa—

This is an idea put forward by a columnist in The Times at the end of last year. The core is to expel all colonial governments and completely turn Africa into an Africa for Africans, no longer accepting European enslavement.

This model can be said to be exactly the same as the Monroe Doctrine in the United States.

"Do you know what the result of this will be?" Rock didn't expect that Alvin would be so radical.

In other words, Alvin's performance was much better than Rock expected.

Did Roque not want to expel the colonial government?

I want it so much! Rock has never dreamed of it.

However, this kind of thing cannot be accomplished overnight. Rock is taking things step by step and letting nature take its course, hoping to achieve this goal without damaging the overall environment.

If nothing unexpected happens, this process may last for more than ten years, or even decades, and Roque will probably not be able to see it.

If we follow Alvin's approach, it won't take long, maybe three to five years, before Africa will completely change.

"Thinking about it, it's nothing more than arousing the jealousy of the Americans and Russians, and the hatred of the British and French -" Alvin's expression was calm, he really didn't think this was a big deal.

"——But so what? Is London capable of launching the third Boer War? Does France still have the strength to suppress the rebellion in West Africa? If after the war, Britain and France want to return to East Asia, when will we

How to deal with——" Alvin's voice was not high, but it was deafening.

Times have changed, my lord!

In the time and space where Rock is located, the Iron Curtain immediately followed the end of World War II, and the confrontation between the two camps lasted for decades.

This time and space——

Hard to say.

At least after the war, if Britain and France wanted to return to the Far East, Roque would not be able to accept it under any circumstances.

As for the third Boer War, it is also absolutely impossible. Britain has enough troubles of its own. If the Suez Canal can be saved, the princes and nobles of the British Empire will be thankful.

"You make a plan first and write a report to me -" Rock didn't refuse directly. This kind of thing must be encouraged.

In another time and space, the United States and Russia did not fail to try to establish a new international order after the end of World War II.

Everything must have a process, and the United States and Russia only found the correct way to establish a new international order after countless attempts.

Now Southern Africa has the opportunity to directly overthrow the old order. Whether it works or not will have to be tried.

While Alvin was writing the report, Arthur took a plane back to Cyprus. After arriving in Cyprus, Arthur was surprised to find that the situation in the Balkans had changed again, and the situation was more serious than in Budapest.

After the end of World War I, the Austro-Hungarian Empire disintegrated, and Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia united to form the Kingdom of Serbo-Croat-Slovenia, which was named the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1929.

In 1941, Germany invaded Yugoslavia, and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia disintegrated into the Serbian National Salvation Government and the Independent State of Croatia. With the support of the Germans, these two countries established puppet regimes and became part of the Axis Powers.

At the same time that the Kingdom of Yugoslavia signed the surrender, a former Austro-Hungarian officer who had participated in World War I and performed outstandingly in World War II suddenly emerged and led the Yugoslav rebel army to resist Germany. As of the beginning of 1945, the Yugoslav rebel army

The scale has grown to 800,000 people.

Joseph Bruce, when his information was submitted to Arthur's office, Arthur had never heard of this name before.

"The Germans didn't know who this man was before. By the time the Germans got to know him, he already had more than 600,000 men-" Brooke was no stranger to Joseph, but he was also familiar with the rapid development of the Yugoslav guerrillas.

Express surprise.

Not everyone is convinced by Mustache. The resistance forces of the Axis countries have been developing. The Free French resistance has grown to 300,000 people, and the Yugoslav guerrillas have reached 800,000 people. It doesn’t seem to be surprising.

unacceptable.

Joseph has a rich resume. He once won the runner-up in the fencing competition of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In World War I, he was wounded while fighting the Russian army and was captured. He joined the Russian army while serving his sentence in Russia and participated in the battle with Kolchak.

After fighting in the White Army, he returned to Yugoslavia with his Russian wife in 20 years and changed his name to Tito.

"Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro—does this person want to rebuild the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" Arthur had a complicated mood. The total area of ​​all the above areas is only more than 250,000 square kilometers.

The Balkans are so complicated.

Rhodesia, as the territory of the Rhodes family, has a total area of ​​390,000 square kilometers.

The area controlled by the Yugoslav guerrillas, including the places above, totaled only more than 250,000 people. This also proved from another perspective that Joseph was extremely capable.

As early as the beginning of the century, the Balkans were considered a powder keg in Europe. Regional and ethnic conflicts were so acute that they were recognized as irreconcilable.

Now Joseph can actually integrate so many countries together, something Arthur thinks he can't even do.

"The Germans have encircled and suppressed the guerrillas many times and wanted Joseph, but they have never been able to do so. The terrain in the guerrilla-controlled area is extremely complex. If you dig into the mountains, you can't find it at all -" Brooke also lamented.

The Germans were unable to capture Joseph, and it was not easy for the Southern African Expeditionary Force to capture Joseph.

If you look at the map, you will know that the area controlled by the Yugoslav guerrillas is right next to Greece and the Ottoman Republic. If this area is controlled by the Communist International, then Arthur's arrangements in Hungary will become useless.

Fortunately, Joseph's relationship with the Communist International was not very good. At least he did not follow blindly and had his own opinions.

"Can we win this person over?" Arthur glanced at the map and gave up using force.

After all, force cannot solve all problems.

In 1941, when the German army was at its strongest, the Allies were forced to abandon Greece and retreat to North Africa.

The German army in 41 years had not been able to eliminate the Yugoslav guerrillas, so Arthur didn't even have to think about it.

"There is a chance, but don't have high hopes -" Brooke was not optimistic.

This is also true. Anyone who has no independent opinion will most likely become a victim and will not achieve much in the future.

Joseph's wives are both Russians, but they did not absolutely obey the command of the Communist International. This fully shows that Joseph has a strong heart.

Of course, this also proves from another perspective that Arthur cannot control the Yugoslav guerrillas like he controlled the Hungarian servant army.

Why are the Balkans such a powder keg?

Because the Balkans did not submit to the rule of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

For hundreds of years, the Austro-Hungarian Empire failed to conquer the Balkans, and neither did the southern Africans.

"You have to give it a try. What Russia can give to the Yugoslav guerrillas, we can also give it to!" Arthur was confident. As long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem.

Arthur himself didn't even know that the Yugoslav guerrillas actually had an office in Cyprus, called the Balkan Democratic Party, and the person in charge was Tapisalo.

Tapisalo is very worried these days. The office of the Democratic Party he leads is located on Jazz Avenue in East Cape. During the World War, many Balkans fled to Cyprus. Tapisalo is good at dancing and is among the Balkans in Cyprus.

, raised nearly one million rand for the guerrillas, which were used to purchase medicines and ammunition, effectively supporting the guerrillas' resistance to the German army.

In recent days, many strangers have appeared around the Democratic Party offices, and there is even a van with dark glass parked across the street 24 hours a day, which makes Tapisalo very uneasy.

Southern Africa prohibits any foreign organization from raising funds through any means within Southern Africa.

Although the guerrilla office in Cyprus bears the name of the Democratic Party, it actually has nothing to do with "democracy". Yugoslavia does not even have an organization called the Democratic Party.

"I just went to the dock and was followed. The stalker was unscrupulous and did not hide his intentions at all. He was not worried about being discovered at all-" Tapisalo's deputy Nekosvich, the head of Brad's office, was uneasy.

It was so big that Nekosvich was worried about being targeted by Brad.

"What does it matter? We have completed our mission." Tapisalo is not afraid, he is a man of faith.

Everyone knew that the war was coming to an end, that the Germans were at the end of their rope, that the Yugoslav partisans were now operating openly, attacking big cities, and that there was no longer any need to cover up their whereabouts.

To put it bluntly, the Yugoslav guerrillas were also part of the Allied Forces. Even if they were discovered by Bullard's office, Tapisalo would not be worried.

As long as Southern Africa does not completely fall out with the Comintern, at least the safety of Tapisalo and Nekosvich can be guaranteed.

As for funds——

The biggest problem plaguing the Yugoslav guerrillas now is no longer funding.

"Should we get out of here?" Nekosvich wanted to leave Cyprus.

This is not fear, but based on multiple considerations.

The war is about to end, so at this time it is necessary to return to Yugoslavia as soon as possible and join the vigorous battle against Germany, so as to gain maximum benefits.

"No, our mission is not over yet!" Tapisalo refused to leave.

Nekosvich looked puzzled. Didn't you just say that the mission was completed?

"Our biggest task now is no longer to raise funds, but to learn from southern Africa. Don't you want all Yugoslavs to live the same life as southern Africans?" Tapisalo has an ideal, and this is also

Joseph's request.

Joseph proposed in 1938: mobilize and organize the people of Yugoslavia to defend their motherland from aggression and defend their independence.

The "independence" here is a response to the German invasion, and it is also a warning to the Communist International.

Tapisalo was a loyal follower of Joseph, and he never thought of rebelling against Yugoslavia.

As the head of the Yugoslav guerrillas in Cyprus, Tapisalo handles millions of dollars. As long as Tapisalo wants, he can take this money and travel to any country in the world, including southern Africa.

Inside.

This is not without precedent. The German army has only occupied Ukraine for a year or two, but it has been able to form a servant army with as many as 100,000 members. The Balkan Peninsula is a European powder keg, and the situation is extremely complicated. In this case, Tapisalo's loyalty,

Especially precious.

Before Nekosvich could speak, an office staff member hurriedly came to report.

"Sir, there is someone downstairs looking for——"

Neskovich's expression suddenly collapsed, he could not stand, and he slumped down holding on to the back of the sofa.

Tapisalo was not afraid, straightened his tie, and went out to meet the guests calmly.

What could the agents in Brad's office do? They couldn't just throw Tapisalo into a labor camp at the slightest disagreement.
