Among the 1.1 million people who died in Britain during the World War, it is unknown how many of them came from official families due to the lack of relevant statistics.
There is data on noble families, but it only represents World War I. When World War II breaks out, how many nobles will send their children to the battlefield?
After all, when the gilded battlefield turned into a flesh-and-blood mill, its appeal was no longer what it once was.
Haig must be aware of this situation, but he dare not say it. He is one of the people directly responsible. Parliament has given Haig a hush money of 100,000 pounds, so you can rest assured and bear the blame.
Roque and Kitchener have no such worries. Although southern Africa has undergone two rounds of large-scale disarmament after the World War, it still maintains an army of about 200,000 people. Among them, 50,000 elite army troops are unbeatable. If there are
It can be expanded to millions at any time if needed.
Of course, even if a world war breaks out again, southern Africa will not be able to use all its strength like the last time.
The Americans did a good job in this regard. They sold supplies before the war and had good relations with both sides. Then when both sides were exhausted, they entered the war as a savior and successfully reaped the fruits of victory. It was perfect!
Available!
"Locke, how is the strength of the army in southern Africa?" Haig tried to trick Locke. He, the governor, did not even have the power to leave Pretoria to inspect the army without Locke's consent.
The strength of the Southern African Army is much stronger than it seems. On the surface, the Southern African Army only has two divisions. In fact, the Southern African Union has hundreds of thousands of African-American troops. These troops are also under the command of the Southern African Union. Once a war starts,
It will also be assigned to the order of operations.
As for the Southern African Air Force and Navy, their strength is even more unfathomable. Different people use the same weapons with completely different powers. Not to mention that Southern Africa has always exported weapons that are about to be eliminated. All military equipment is the most advanced.
weapons, this is already an open secret.
The key is not to buy it. For example, helicopters can only be manufactured in southern Africa in the world. The UK has been hoping to introduce helicopters from southern Africa since last year. As a result, after more than half a year of negotiations, southern Africa still only agreed to export the complete aircraft.
It is not possible to assemble them in the UK, and if you buy them in one go, at least 200 units will start. If you buy less, you won’t sell them, and you don’t care about the money.
It’s not that the UK doesn’t want to build its own, but it’s a pity that it doesn’t even have a model for reference. Super Marlin developed a helicopter last month. Unfortunately, it crashed after flying only 12 meters. The flying height was only about two meters.
Afterwards, Supermarine admitted in frustration that it would take at least five years and about 7.5 million pounds to develop a successful helicopter.
This result makes everyone very frustrated. You must know that the cost of each of the two Nelson-class battleships built by the British was only 7.5 million.
So it is really better to build than to buy, and to buy is worse than to rent.
"It's enough to protect southern Africa." Roque didn't want to talk about this issue. He scolded me while asking me to be loyal. P's UA.
“Lord, Your Excellency the Governor, the Marshal needs to rest.” The doctor intervened in time.
Roque immediately stood up and said goodbye. If you are sick, you should take a good rest. Roque is also very busy.
It’s really busy. The Sultanate of Najd and the East Indies are going to join the Southern African Union, and Madagascar is going to join the Southern African Federation. The French have already spoken loudly in the League of Nations to be wary of the crazy expansion of southern Africa. The Sultanate of Najd is even more nervous. Britain and the United States
The French coalition has put pressure on the Sultanate of Najd, demanding that the Sultanate of Najd open its domestic oil and gas market and at least give British, American and French companies a chance to compete fairly.
Cyprus, Baronial Palace, Arthur and Roya are sorting out the baby supplies sent by Ada.
Luo Ya is already three months pregnant, and the child has attracted much attention. Ada and Xiaosi have sent telegrams many times, hoping that Luo Ya will return to southern Africa to raise the baby, but Luo Ya refuses.
Roya didn’t want to leave Arthur at this time.
Elders still respect their children’s choices very much, so all kinds of baby products and supplements for pregnant women are shipped to Cyprus one by one for free.
It really costs nothing. As the largest food supplier in southern Africa and possibly the world, Xiaosi has all kinds of supplements from all over the world. Luo Ya only needs to say what she wants to eat. Xiaosi sends his old butler to Cyprus and is satisfied.
All requests from Roya.
Ada went even further. She even created a new baby brand for her unborn child, producing almost all daily necessities including clothing, toys, and accessories. Then she gave the brand directly to Luo Ya as a gift for the child.
Meeting gift.
Roark also made some moves. Roque didn't have to worry about other things. Stoudemire and Ada thought carefully. Roque quietly added a few cruisers to the Mediterranean Squadron. The reason was of course to protect the interests of the Southern African federal government in the Mediterranean.
Roque doesn’t care about the opposition caused by France and Italy. Anyway, compared with Madagascar’s integration into southern Africa, these are trivial matters.
It is not small either. Both France and Italy regard the Mediterranean as their core interests. However, on this issue, France and Italy have a tacit understanding. They only protest on the surface and take no actual action at all.
It is also understandable that France and Italy are not the only ones who regard the Mediterranean as their core interests. The United Kingdom also regards the Mediterranean as its core interests, and the strength of the Mediterranean fleet is second only to the home fleet.
It is very interesting that the United Kingdom already has a Mediterranean fleet, but a Mediterranean squadron has been established in southern Africa.
So the strongest reaction was from the United Kingdom.
The United Kingdom believes that increasing the strength of the Mediterranean Squadron in southern Africa will provoke an arms race among countries surrounding the Mediterranean.
The French said I can’t do it because I don’t have the money and Congress won’t allow it.
Mussolini said don't bother me, I'm busy dissolving Congress, and you can handle the affairs of the Commonwealth by yourself.
Greece,Spain
There is no need to mention these two. They dare not speak out if they have opinions. When gods fight, mortals keep their mouths shut.
"What are these? Children's shoes? It's simply a work of art!" Luo Ya held a pair of tiger-head boots and marveled in admiration. This is a pair of tiger-head boots made with traditional Chinese craftsmanship. All the furs used on them are real.
, the workmanship is exquisite and complicated. Only the tiger head uses various stitching methods such as embroidery, flower picking, and seeding. The tiger ears, tiger eyes, shoe mouth and other parts are trimmed with fur, which not only increases the decoration, but also emphasizes the texture.
“Are there still tigers in southern Africa?” Arthur thought for a long time, but he still couldn’t figure out where the tigers in southern Africa came from.
"There are tigers in India" Roya doesn't care whether there are tigers in southern Africa. Anyway, those in India can be considered as belonging to southern Africa.
India is a British territory, and southern Africa and the United Kingdom are both members of the Commonwealth. There is nothing wrong with this idea and it is logically consistent.
As to whether there are tigers in Africa, this is indeed a good question.
Tiger is a solitary animal. It is said that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, unless there is one male and one female. This sentence is really not a joke. Tigers can coexist during the mating season.
Then the question arises. On the African savannah, lions, hyenas and the like live in groups. Although tigers have strong individual combat capabilities, after all, they are difficult to defeat with four fists. Referring to Darwin's law of natural elimination, even if there are tigers in Africa, they will be eliminated.
Natural elimination, so it's normal if it doesn't exist.
Another reason is probably that it is not a special feature. Although tigers have strong fighting power, they cannot run fast. The prey on the African savannah either comes in groups or runs too fast to catch them. Moreover, tigers have stripes on their bodies, which is very rare in Africa.
It's really conspicuous on the grassland, so it's probably quite difficult to disguise it.
"This won't work, it's too dangerous." Arthur didn't dwell on the tiger issue, and casually put away a toy gun. This thing was too dangerous, so children should be exposed to it later.
People in southern Africa are no strangers to weapons. Many people’s rite of passage is a pistol. Proper education is still very important, especially for families with children. Dangerous things must be kept out of the reach of children.
“Lord, Mr. Jabbar has arrived.” Arthur’s attendant Billy came from a dilapidated aristocratic family in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. He also received an elite education in his early years, was proficient in multiple languages, and was loyal to Arthur.
This situation is very common. The level of the title is not important. The key is not to break away from the circle of nobility. Although Arthur's title is only a baron, everyone knows that with Roark and Xiaosi behind him, Arthur has a bright future. Thinking of Baron Arthur's mansion
I don’t know how many working people can travel from Paris to London.
Jabbar was a member of the royal family of the Sultanate of Najd. He once studied at Nyasaland University with Arthur. After Arthur became vassal, Jabbar came to Cyprus and served as the consul of the Sultanate of Najd in Cyprus.
When Arthur came to the living room, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was drinking tea. He was wearing a white suit and his fingers were covered with gemstone rings. He looked a little dazzling.
The secularization of the Sultanate of Najd was quite good.
“King Arthur, my friend, congratulations on your soon to be a father. Where is my sister-in-law? I want to congratulate her in person.” Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s Chinese proficiency is definitely better than that of many southern Africans, and he has obviously put in the effort.
King Arthur is Arthur’s nickname, but not many people can call him, only Arthur’s friends.
"Thank you, Luo Ya is sorting out the baby supplies sent by her mother. There are too many." Arthur made an exaggerated gesture with his hand, which was actually about the same.
"You have an excellent mother, and the relationship between you is really enviable." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did not dare to mention the word "father". He was born in a royal family, and he also had the troubles of the royal family.
“Come on, let’s stop being polite, you’re not here just to chat with me, right?” Arthur knew that the Sultanate of Najd had been in some trouble recently.
"It's not true. You know, ordinary people are not guilty of the crime. The Sultanate of Najd discovered the oil field, which is really not a good thing for the Sultanate of Najd. Can you do me a favor? Ask Aunt Ada to help.
