Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

Even if Southern Africa is still part of the Commonwealth, the British government can no longer ask for anything in Southern Africa that has become autonomous.

What's more, the Nyasaland Aeronautical Research Institute is still Roque's private property, so the British government wants to buy the aircraft. As long as Roque pretends to be stupid, the British government can only buy it through normal channels with real money.

Before Viscount Glaston found Roark, he had already approached Ade. With Sidney Milner here, everything could not be hidden from Roark. Ade also had no ability to ask Roark to take the initiative to give technology to the British government.

So Viscount Glaston could only hold his nose and come to Roque.

Of course, Rock is confident now. The reason why the British government is so anxious is because the Germans have increased their research on aircraft. If the British government does not want to lag behind the Germans, then Nyasaland's aircraft is the best choice.

Fortunately, the price offered by Roque was not outrageous. If the price offered by Roque was the same as that sold to the Italians and Ottomans, then Viscount Glaston would have a different evaluation of Roque.

The next day, Rock and Viscount Glaston returned to Nyasaland together. Viscount Glaston wanted to see with his own eyes how advanced Nyasaland's aircraft had become.

Only then did Rock learn that Britain had obtained a "Flyer 3" developed by the Wright brothers from the United States and was testing it in Portsmouth.

At this time, the railway between the Okavango Swamp and Nyasaland had not yet been built. Although the performance of Lord's car was good, Rock already had a better choice.

"Take a plane to Nyasaland? You are crazy, this is absolutely impossible!" Viscount Glaston refused decisively, unwilling to take risks with Rock.

At this time, the flying sport was still a game for the brave, and people in Europe were killed in flying every year. The reason why Catherine Wright was so wildly sought after by the media had a lot to do with the sport she was engaged in.

As a nobleman and the governor of Southern Africa, Viscount Glaston would definitely not take risks, and he was determined not to let Roque take risks.

For the British government, Roque's status is also very important now. As a British aristocrat, Roque also serves as the deputy minister of defense and deputy minister of justice of the federal government of Southern Africa. Therefore, Roque is very important to the British government in maintaining its presence in southern Africa.

The influence is very important.

What's more, Nyasaland has shown increasingly strong industrial strength and military strength, which are indispensable to the British government.

"Locke, you are not only responsible for yourself, but also for southern Africa and the empire. You are an aristocrat of the empire and a senior official of southern Africa. You cannot put yourself in danger. I know Nyasaland

The performance of the aircraft is very good, but even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, I can't let you take the risk." Viscount Glaston's attitude was firm. If Rock had any good intentions, many of the British government's plans in southern Africa would come to nothing.

.

At least now the British government is very sure that if someone else serves as the Deputy Minister of Defense for Southern Africa, it is unclear whether Southern Africa can maintain its current military strength. Once a war breaks out between Britain and Germany, will Southern Africa wholeheartedly serve the British?

Imperial effectiveness is still two different things.

At least if those Boers came to power, they would definitely not serve the British Empire wholeheartedly.

Going back to the original question, the UK now only has the last step left to complete the "Two C Plan". As long as Nyasaland is linked to the East African Protectorate (Uganda), the "Two C Plan" can be declared completed.

.

It's just that Tanganyika is separated from Nyasaland and the East African Protectorate, so without Roque, it will immediately become impossible to complete the "Two C Plan".

"Believe me, Lord, the 'Strong Wind' is not something like the 'Aviator 3'. The safety is sufficiently guaranteed. Our pilots have rich flying experience. Each of them has more than 100 hours of flying time. They have enough

His experience can cope with any accidents during the flight." Rock wanted Viscount Glaston to personally experience the convenience of getting off the plane. In fact, the flight distance is not far. The plane takes off from the Okavango Swamp and only needs to fly three hundred meters.

Kilometers into Rhodesia, you can transfer to Nyasaland by train.

"Don't even think about it, Locke. I will never fly to Nyasaland, and neither can you. We will all go by car, in the same car." Viscount Glaston was decisive and would not risk it for Locke.

Chance.

Rock had no choice but to take a car with Viscount Glaston to Rhodesia.

As for the two planes called by telegram, treat them as air escorts and return to Nyasaland together.

It is said that this may be the first time that humans have enjoyed air escort treatment.

It is indeed safe to take a car, but the comfort is not to mention. There are not only no railways between the Okavango Swamp and Rhodesia, but also no roads. Many sections even have no roads at all. Fortunately, there are endless stretches of scenery along the way.

The car was running wildly across the plains, and apart from hitting and killing a few bison, there were no accidents.

All the way to the Kwando River at the junction of Bechuanaland and German South-West Africa.

The first ones to discover the enemy's situation were the "Strong Wind" fighters in the air. Rock and Viscount Graston immediately saw the three "Strong Wind" fighters that had been flying in the air at low speed begin to dive, accompanied by machine gun fire.

The entire convoy stopped immediately, and a dozen armored vehicles set up defensive positions around the Lord's car. Rock and Viscount Graston were also transferred to the armored command vehicle.

"What's going on?" Viscount Gladstone was shocked.

"I don't know, but across the Kuando River is the territory of Southwest Africa. In recent years, the cavalry from Southwest Africa often disguised themselves as horse bandits or slave-catching teams and crossed into Bechuanaland. They burned, killed, and looted without hesitation. At least there used to be people living in this area.

Tens of thousands of indigenous people have now become a no-man's land——" Roque's face was gloomy. What happened to Roque was simply a shame for Roque, the deputy minister of defense.

"Don't blame yourself too much. This kind of thing is inevitable. We can't eliminate those all-pervasive slave catching teams, but Windhoek is right there." Viscount Glaston's face didn't look good either. There were slaves from Southwest Africa in Southern Africa.

When the cavalry appears, Viscount Glaston, the governor-general, is also duty-bound.

Windhoek is the capital of Southwest Africa. It was originally the settlement of the Khoi and Herero herdsmen. It was occupied by Germany in 1890 and became a German military garrison. In 1892, it became a German ruling stronghold and was named Windhoek.

.

Viscount Glaston's meaning is also very obvious. It is said that you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no reason to prevent a thief for a thousand days. Although southern Africa implements a policy of elite troops, due to insufficient troops, it cannot guarantee the security of the vast territory; but Wind, the capital of Southwest Africa,

He Ke can't run away on his own, so every injustice has its owner, and the debt must be settled together.

Of course, at this time, it is no longer important as to whether those horse bandits are disguised cavalrymen from Southwest Africa. What the governor general of Southern Africa and the deputy minister of defense have unanimously determined, even if it is false, can only be treated as true.

Soon, the armored vehicle that went out for reconnaissance came back with news, and also brought back Ryan, the captain of the pioneer team, and Mike Kelly, the only British-American in the team.

"We are the pioneer team in Area 1065. We are investigating the hydrology and soil conditions of the Kuanduo River Basin to determine how many immigrants are suitable for resettlement here-" Ryan's hand holding the coffee cup was still trembling. This was not because he was scared.

It is the sequelae of excessive adrenaline secretion.

"What are the results of the investigation?" Viscount Glaston interjected, inadvertently changing the subject.

Ryan was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, and he had to reorganize his words: "The conditions here are still good. We found several tribes that were burned down by the Germans. The people in the tribes were probably robbed by the Germans. In the tribes

Many unburied corpses were also found nearby. Of course, those corpses have now turned into bones. The Kuanduo River Basin is rich in water and fertile soil. At least 100,000 immigrants can be resettled here."

"One hundred thousand?" Viscount Glaston immediately looked at Roark.

Luo Ke helplessly spread his hands, not to mention one hundred thousand, not even ten thousand, at least not in the short term.

Viscount Glaston also knew the specific situation in southern Africa and knew how difficult it was to win immigrants from southern Africa, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

"Half a month ago, we discovered that there were sporadic cavalrymen from Southwest Africa on the other side of the Kuando River. However, they never crossed the Kuando River, so we did not launch an attack on them. As a result, this morning, just three hours ago,

At least 500 Southwest African cavalry suddenly crossed the river to attack us. We now have many wounded. The only technician, Jackson, fell ill two days ago. If possible, can we send our wounded back to Nyasaland?

"They can only wait to die here -" Ryan looked sad. The Blazers suffered such a big loss, and Ryan was also responsible.

"I quit, I want to go home, I want to go back to London, this place is full of damn savages -" Mike Kelly's mood has collapsed. One lens of his glasses has been broken, and he is covered in mud.

, but there was no blood, and he was squatting in the corner of the command vehicle and crying loudly.

Both Rock and Viscount Glaston looked ugly. It was so difficult to obtain immigrants from Southern Africa. Even so, many new immigrants would choose to leave Southern Africa every year. Compared with Southern Africa, at least if they immigrated to Australia or Canada,

There are no safety concerns.

"Get up, you coward, we can't back down when encountering difficulties. We want to kill those Germans and avenge Tony, Lee, and Chen!" Ryan pulled Mike Kelly up from the ground and shouted, his left shoulder

It was wrapped with a bandage in a messy way, and now it's starting to bleed out again.

It was obvious that when the Southwest African cavalry attacked, Captain Ryan did not flinch and had just experienced a bloody battle.
