Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

If the status quo cannot be changed, there is no prospect for official cooperation between the Abyssinian Empire and southern Africa, and it will basically only reach the current level.

The Abyssinian Empire has too many problems. The resources within its territory are inferior to those of Congo and West Africa, not to mention Nejd Brazil, and most of them are still undeveloped. The Abyssinian Empire does not even have an outlet to the sea. It is in the direction of the Red Sea.

Nor does it offer much help to southern Africa.

I don't know why, but Rock always felt that Haile Selassie I's attitude was not normal, and it was not an attitude of asking for others.

After seeing off Haile Selassie I, Rock called over Joe Kleist, who was the head of Umbrella Company in the Abyssinian Empire and also served as the ambassador of Southern Africa to Abyssinia.

It is normal to serve as an ambassador concurrently in southern Africa. Qualified diplomats are very valuable and will not be posted to countries like Abyssinia. It is more suitable to use executives of umbrella companies.

In Abyssinia, diplomats are not necessarily more useful than mercenaries.

"Two months ago, Russia and the Abyssinian Empire established diplomatic relations. The Russian embassy is opposite our embassy. The area is larger than our embassy, ​​and the planned building is also taller than our embassy.

The Russians gave Haile Selassie I a lot of promises, including assistance in material and human resources-" The situation provided by Kleist was not what Roque expected. Haile Selassie I did have more.

Confidence.

If Haile Selassie I could only rely on southern Africa, then Haile Selassie I would not have this attitude and would not be qualified to raise conditions with Roque.

Although Russia's scope of control is limited to the Eurasian continent, its influence is expanding rapidly, which Roark had long expected.

Countries like Russia are different from southern Africa and the United States.

When Southern Africa and the United States decide to assist a certain country, they still need to be approved by Congress, and there is a somewhat complicated process.

The bearded man can make a decision in Russia without even going through the process. When providing foreign aid, he does not even need to consider the actual situation in Russia. This is something that southern Africa and the United States cannot do.

Southern Africa and the United States must first ensure that they have enough to eat, and then consider exporting.

Russia is also rich in resources. Although Russia was in difficulty during the World War, Russia has always been Europe's largest food supplier in peacetime. Even France and the United Kingdom secretly imported food from Russia.

Don’t think that just because you have different positions, you will never interact with each other. Winston and De Gaulle are not stupid either. Although they cannot conduct direct transactions with Russia due to public opinion, they can do so through “middlemen”. After all, Russian food is too cheap.

It's simply impossible to refuse.

Britain and France are not considered overseas colonies. Their mainland area is just that big. British farmers are busy herding sheep, French farmers are planting grapes, and ordinary residents have lawns in front of their homes and gardens in the back. The waste of land is extremely serious. Where does the food come from?

Can only be looted from colonies.

If the colony's harvest is not good, then it can only purchase from abroad.

Therefore, as long as Russia is given a relaxed environment, Russia will be able to export to the outside world.

During the two wars, the League of Nations shut out Russia. Russia did not perish, but got better and better.

Now that Russia's influence can no longer be suppressed, southern Africa will inevitably be affected.

"The Russians promised to help the Abyssinian Empire build factories, and at the same time they could send people to help the Abyssinian Empire train its army, and they could also provide free weapons and equipment to the Abyssinian Empire - what's abominable is,

Many of the weapons and equipment that Russia uses to assist the Abyssinian Empire have been provided by us to Russia in recent years!" Kleist gritted his teeth. He just wanted to help build factories and provide supplies to help the Abyssinian Empire train its troops.

Weapons and equipment will form direct competition with the Umbrella Company's business.

Haile Selassie I was still rational and did not accept all assistance from the Russians. At least he did not dare to act rashly in the military aspect.

As time goes by, the situation will become difficult to say.

Rock remained silent, the situation was indeed a bit tricky.

Although the federal government of Southern Africa talks about fairness and justice, it actually implements a colonial single economic policy, otherwise it would not even leave the Brazilians the opportunity for rough processing.

If it were Roque, from the standpoint of Haile Selassie I, it would be difficult to refuse Russian assistance.

Assistance in the military field is okay, but help in the industrial base is too important. If the Abyssinian Empire really has basic industrial capabilities with the help of the Russians, then Southern Africa’s influence on the Abyssinian Empire

It will plummet.

"We have made some preparations for the situation in the Abyssinian Empire. If Haile Selassie I fully throws himself into the arms of Russia, then we can only change to another king." Kleist said in the Abyssinian Empire

, whose status is comparable to that of a regent.

This is just a treatment for a headache. If the source of the conflict cannot be solved, it will be useless to change the king. Sooner or later, it will fall into the arms of the Russians.

However, facing Russia like this, Roque also felt that he had no idea what to do.

Russia's current role is similar to that of southern Africa back then. This is another story of a boy who slays a dragon and eventually becomes a dragon.

"This is not simple. As long as the benefits we give are greater than Russia, we can guarantee the loyalty of the Abyssinians -" Stoudemire was simple and rude. Problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

"This is not just a problem with the Abyssinian Empire. Haven't you noticed that the current situation in Europe is similar to that of the Abyssinian Empire." Rock's disgust for the wallflower reached its peak at this moment.

You people are really not firm in your stance.

The French's actions during the World War set the worst example for the world. Now almost all countries are somewhat wavering in their stance.

In other words, it can be said that you have both sides and wait for the price to sell.

To put it bluntly, we should help whoever offers the most benefits.

Although Southern Africa is not afraid of competition, the price it needs to pay is actually much higher, which makes Roque uncomfortable.

What could have been done for ten dollars now costs a hundred dollars.

Although it's not that I can't afford it, I still feel like I'm being ripped off.

"If they want to mess up, let them mess up. Russia is a country led by the working class." Stoudemire is not worried about Europe defecting, and European politicians are not stupid.

For the vested interests in European countries, staying in the Western camp is at best a matter of eating more and eating less. If you imitate what Russia does, you will be hung up on the street.

European politicians are also very smart. They know that the Russian model is too attractive to the people, so they simply take the initiative to establish the Labor Party and follow the Russian path, leaving Russia with no way to go.

The public is easily fooled and will not carefully examine the essential differences between the labor parties in European countries and the labor parties in Russia.

After the British Labor Party failed to take office for the first time, some British people even laughed at the Russians because of the poor performance of the British Labor Party during its period in power. They did not realize that the British Labor Party's governance was essentially a farce directed and staged by the British ruling class.

This script is actually not very clever.

It’s amazing that the British just do this.

Probably subconsciously, people only believe what they want to believe.

"We must pay attention to the threat from Russia, but there is no need to exaggerate. The matter is not serious enough." Rock said it was easy. The Abyssinian Empire is half of southern Africa's home court. If it can't defeat Russia, then

Southern Africa should stop dreaming of being a "world policeman" as soon as possible.

The Umbrella Company's method is still too simple and crude. No matter what he does, Haile Selassie is still a king and cannot be dismissed easily. Southern Africa is different from the United States and he has to lose face.

It seems more appropriate for Brad's office to handle this matter.

Brad's strength in the Abyssinian Empire is also very strong, and he and Umbrella have a clear division of labor. Umbrella takes over the defense of the Abyssinian Empire, while Brad takes over the economic lifeline of the Abyssinian Empire.

Most of the resources in the Abyssinian Empire were taken over by Bullard, and only Bullard had the strength to run a country.

Of course, whether it can be managed well or not remains to be seen.

"Abyssinia is not southern Africa. There is no possibility or necessity to establish an industrial system. The Russians' plans are doomed to fail." Alexander, Blood's head of the Abyssinian Empire, is confident that Haile Sai

No matter how ambitious Lacy is, the Abyssinian Empire must have the strength to match his ambition.

Today, Abyssinia’s currency is the Southern African Rand, and almost all domestic industrial products are imported from Southern Africa.

So the question arises, if the Abyssinian Empire develops industry, who will the products produced be sold to?

As we all know, the cost of industrial production is very high. Even if the human resources of the Abyssinian Empire are cheap, the price of technology and equipment will not be cheap. The products produced will also face crazy competition from southern African goods. If the products are sold

If he doesn't go out and make money, how long can Haile Selassie's passion for industry last?

Not just any country has the courage and determination to endure hardships.

The Abyssinian Empire was the norm.

Although Haile Selassie I had great ambitions, the situation in the Abyssinian Empire did not allow it. There were no resources, no talents, no market, and no standard products. Even if he managed to establish an industrial base with the help of Russia, he would eventually fail.

It can only end sadly.

"What if the Russians are willing to give up part of the market?" Stoudemire is still very good in the business field. If he doesn't make money now, he will make more in the future.

"It depends on how long Russia's enthusiasm can last -" Alexander does not think Russia has enough capital to compete with southern Africa.

The premise of holding a pole with jujube is that the investment should not be too large to avoid the sunk cost being too high to escape in time. The Abyssinian Empire is of little value to southern Africa, but is it irreplaceable for Russia?

?

Impossible, no matter how willful the bearded man is, he will not send milk and bread to Abyssinia while the Russians are eating grass.

If you must give something away, then it can only be grass.

Southern Africa can deliver milk and bread.

Because southern Africa does not need to feed all the Abyssinians, it only needs to feed the powerful class of the Abyssinian Empire.

So unless Russia sends troops to Abyssinia, southern Africa really doesn’t have to worry too much about Russia’s output.

Isn't it just corruption? In this regard, Southern Africa is also deeply influenced by the British Empire.

"Tell His Majesty Selassie that if the Abyssinian Empire wants to join the Southern African Union, then it must transform the Abyssinian Empire into a more democratic one." Roque dug a hole for Haile Selassie I, democracy

There is a price.

Although Congo and Najd are monarchies, their models are similar to those of Britain. There is a parliament in the country, and the king cannot do whatever he wants.

After Haile Selassie I came to power, he also carried out some democratic reforms, but they were not thorough. There is even a slavery system in the Abyssinian Empire, which is absolutely unacceptable to the Southern African Union.

Southern Africa does not say that everyone is equal in the true sense, at least from a legal perspective. Essentially, the Prime Minister and the Tramp, as natural persons, have about the same power.

The values ​​of slavery are seriously inconsistent with the values ​​advocated by the Southern African Union, so the Southern African Union has not accepted the application of Haile Selassie I.

Haile Selassie I himself wanted to abolish slavery and issued many decrees to abolish it.

However, the situation in the Abyssinian Empire was also relatively complicated, and the laws were not completely implemented. The princes and nobles, in particular, were very resistant to the abolition of slavery.

It was precisely because of concerns about the instability of the domestic regime that Haile Selassie I did not dare to push for it.

If Haile Selassie I resolutely abolished slavery, then Haile Selassie I would have to rely more on help from southern Africa to stabilize his rule.

Otherwise, without the help of Umbrella and Brad, the powerful elites in the Abyssinian Empire would overthrow the rule of Haile Selassie I.

"Perhaps we can create some trouble for the Russians and drive them away." Alexander was ruthless. On the one hand, he made Haile Selassie I oust himself from the "people" and on the other hand, he cut off Russia's aid. It was a two-pronged approach.

"You just have to figure it out, don't make it too ugly." Roque didn't want to fall out with the Russians yet, not to that extent.

Alexander and Kleist looked at each other and smiled, this is what they are best at.

Competition at the national level is too great for Umbrella and Brad. Umbrella has a bad reputation, while Brad is more accustomed to hiding in the dark and does not want to expose more of his strength.

Russia's external exports also have conditions. Although it is not harsh now, if the Abyssinian Empire completely joins the Russian camp, then Russia will let Haile Selassie I know what the European Gendarmerie is.
