Reborn as a police officer in South Africa
548 Watching with eager eyes
"What's your name?" Hicks sat down on the sofa in the living room and slowly took off his gloves.
"Li, Li Hongru"
"There is a knife on the table behind you. Someone is trying to break into your home. Why don't you pick up the knife and resist?" Hicks was not in a hurry. There was indeed a table knife on the table behind the man.
Although it is a table knife, it can still kill people.
Li Hongru looked at Hicks blankly, not knowing how to answer.
"If it's a robber who breaks in, then you should know the consequences." Hicks couldn't tell how disappointed he was.
"The robber only wants money," Li Hongru muttered.
"Robbers sometimes take their lives." Hicks stood up, not wanting to waste time here.
"If the robber dares to come, I will fight him to the death!" Finally, there was a voice that did not disappoint Hicks, although the voice was a bit childish.
"No" screamed the panicked woman as she tried to gag a teenager.
This kid was also fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as the two guys who were executed in the street just now.
Only then did Hicks notice that the young man was holding a dagger in his hand.
A real dagger is longer, sharper, and better to hold than a table knife.
"Very well, here's this for you, protect your family." Hicks casually took off the Gurkha scimitar he was wearing and threw it to the boy.
The boy didn't dare to pick it up, and the scimitar fell on the floor in front of him. The boy's eyes were shining when he looked at the scimitar.
Hicks and Middleton didn't waste any more time and turned around to leave.
On the first day of the invasion of Batavia, the Medan troops publicly executed nearly a thousand people, and the security of Batavia was greatly improved.
Middleton ultimately failed to have tea at the Governor's Palace. Just before the Medan troops invaded Batavia, the Dutch Governor in East India hurriedly fled to Borneo by ship. The Governor's Palace was later sealed.
Roque knew that it was July 20th that the Medan troops had captured Batavia. The total order amount for Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. had also been increased to 3 million pounds, but it was not for Nyasaland Military Industrial Group, but for Nyasaland Military Industrial Group.
of Nyasaland Import and Export Trading Company.
These 3 million pounds are used to purchase various industrial products in southern Africa, ranging from machinery products to agricultural products.
If Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. showed such sincerity from the beginning, then maybe Luo Ke would have a high regard for Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd.
Don't think about it now. There is no shortage of sales for Nyasaland's products. The mechanical products and various special medicines that Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. hopes to buy have to wait in line. There are as many agricultural products as you want, but except for potato vodka,
Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd.'s demand for agricultural products is not large, which makes Luo Ke very helpless.
"After all, they are just businessmen. There is nothing to say. If they want to buy and sell, they can just abide by the law and there is no need to target them." Roque does not need to rely on Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. to gain a foothold in East India. In the face of absolute strength, any
The routines are all pale and feeble.
"In the telegram sent by Andy, after the Medan troops captured Batavia, Huang Taiyuan took the initiative to donate 1.5 million rand without making any excessive demands." Anton was quite satisfied, although Jianyuan Trading Co., Ltd. responded a little slowly.
, but after understanding the situation clearly, we are still on the right track.
"If you dare to make demands under such circumstances, you are courting death. There are so many overseas Chinese in Batavia, but only Huang Taiyuan donated 1.5 million?" Rock said indifferently. When the Dutch ruled East India, why did the overseas Chinese hug the Dutch?
There is nothing wrong with trying to survive. Now that the Medan troops have occupied Batavia, if the overseas students are still stubborn, don't blame Roque for being ruthless.
These overseas Chinese are really speechless sometimes.
In East India and Malaya, those who bullied the Chinese the most were often Chinese farmers.
Rock doesn't have the slightest fondness for these Chinese farmers. The East India Company can't free up its hands now, so it doesn't target these evil-doing Chinese farmers. When the East India Company frees up its hands, Rock will slowly settle the accounts.
If there is a problem with Yuan Trading Co., Ltd., Luo Ke will certainly not be lenient.
"No, Batavia's donation exceeded five million. Not only Chinese people, but many white people also donated." Anton smiled, and it seemed that white people were also very knowledgeable.
This is not surprising. The white people in East India are not just Dutch. There are also many white people from other countries, including many British people. Don't forget that British people enjoy special care in East India.
"Tell Andy to fight quickly and don't give the Dutch a chance to breathe." Rock didn't relax. Although the Dutch were not strong militarily, their economic strength was still very good. Until the 18th century, the Netherlands was still the richest in Europe.
As one of the countries in the world, if the Dutch are given too much time, it is hard to say whether accidents will happen.
"The Governor of East India went to Borneo. There is a Java Sea between him and Java Island. Andy does not have a navy in his hands. It will be a bit difficult to cross the sea. Our cruiser has been launched. Do you want to sell Andy one or two destroyers?"
Now Dong has tasted the sweetness of being an arms dealer. Let alone a destroyer, even a cruiser. As long as the money is enough, Anton has no pressure.
In fact, arms are not the most profitable product in Nyasaland. The profit margins of medicines, cars, and airplanes are greater than those of arms. However, the demand for arms cannot cope with the huge demand. An airplane can earn thousands, but a country can only buy a few.
Ten to hundreds of them, the profit is not much, but for a basic weapon like a rifle, if you order tens of thousands of them at a time, the profit is still very considerable.
"Don't even think about it. It's enough to have planes. The Far East fleet has been completely wiped out. Andy has no warships and the Dutch have no warships. There is nothing to fear." Rock is not worried. In the Far East, he can only rely on mercenaries.
Conquer the world.
The fault lies in the fact that the Dutch do not pay much attention to the army. The weapons and equipment of the East Indian servant army are so crude that they are simply terrible. The Dutch cannot buy weapons even if they want to. In the context of the arms race, the weapons produced by European countries are not enough.
For your own use, although the United States is wealthy, it is limited to the relationship between the American military industry and the United Kingdom and southern Africa, and it does not sell to the Dutch, so even if the Dutch have money now, they cannot buy enough weapons.
Relatively speaking, the Medan troops are much better. At least Nyasaland Military Industrial Group can open up supplies and adjust production capacity according to the specific conditions of East India. The ratio of shotguns and general-purpose machine guns is extremely high. This
Two weapons that work better in the rainforest than a Lee Enfield.
"A new question. There are several Chinese Americans operating in southern Africa, hoping to get help from southern Africa to launch a riot in the Qing Dynasty." Anton reported a new question.
Rock immediately realized that it was already 1910.
If there are no accidents, next year, the rule of the Qing government will gradually collapse, but the Chinese nation has not stood up since then, but has entered another reincarnation.
Next, the Qing Dynasty will enter a period of warlord separatism, which is also not optimistic for the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.
"You can try to get in touch and see what they want. If the demands are not excessive, then meet their requirements." Rock knows that the wheel of history cannot be stopped, and the rule of the Qing government has indeed come to an end, so now Rock can only
Hoping that the Qing government would be overthrown more quickly: "Send Sam a telegram and ask him to come."
In the situation of the Qing Dynasty, mercenaries actually had room to play. The colonial servants in East India had no fighting spirit, and the Eight Banners Green Battalion of the Qing Dynasty was not much better. If possible, Rock was still willing to lend a hand.
As for mercenaries, to put it bluntly, if you have breasts, you are a mother. As long as the money is enough, the mercenaries of the Umbrella Company don't care whether they work in East India or the Qing Dynasty.
Perhaps this would be more conducive to immigration from southern Africa.
"Sending mercenaries to the Qing Dynasty?" Anton hesitated.
"Why not?" Rock was confident. As long as those Chinese Americans didn't mind, then the price didn't matter.
"My Lord, the military discipline of the mercenaries is not good. They almost killed all the Persians in the peninsula, and they also went on a killing spree in East India. Don't you be afraid?" Anton was very worried. The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company were not only Chinese, but also a large number of
The white people and Gurkhas, the Chinese would be restrained when they returned to the Qing Dynasty, but the white people and Gurkhas would be unscrupulous.
The key is nationality, which has nothing to do with race. For the Chinese in southern Africa, the white mercenaries and Gurkha mercenaries of the Umbrella Company can maintain respect, but not necessarily for the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.
It's not necessarily, it's almost certain. You have to know that the reputation of the Chinese in the world is not good at present. In principle, the Chinese in southern Africa are no longer Chinese, but British.
"What are you afraid of? It's not up to us to decide who should be sent to the Qing Dynasty." Luo Ke was not worried. The decision-making power still rested with the Umbrella Company and it all depended on people.
While Rock and Anton were arguing, several Chinese Americans were also involved in a dispute at the Oak Bar next to Cecil Rhodes Plaza in the center of Little Rock.
"Lord Nyasaland himself is Chinese. He came to southern Africa ten years ago and distinguished himself in the Boer War. We have been in Nyasaland for several days. During this time, I believe everyone has seen what Nyasaland has to offer.
"I believe that Lord Nyasaland will not just sit back and ignore the Chinese in Nyasaland, regarding the status of the Chinese in Lanzhou and the living environment of the Chinese in Nyasaland. Tomorrow I will prepare to go to Eagle Fort to send greetings." A man in his forties said.
The middle-aged man made an impassioned speech.
"The current Lord Nyasaland is British," a young man reminded softly.
"But Lord Nyasaland has been immigrating from the Qing Dynasty in these years" someone retorted.
"That doesn't mean anything." Someone questioned.
"Gentlemen, do you have any opinions about His Majesty?" A strange voice suddenly came from beside him.
Several Chinese Americans were a little surprised.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Ceci Joel. I am a member of Brad's office, which is the secret police you often hear these days. Please come with me. Don't resist, otherwise I guarantee that you will not be able to leave.
"Exiting this bar" Seth Joel was so rested that he was like a hound that has found its prey.
Only then did several Chinese Americans notice that the surrounding customers, bar girls, bartenders, and bar security guards whose chest muscles almost burst their clothes were all staring eagerly.
