641 Colony

 It sounds strange to trick people into directly killing them in the name of negotiation, but in fact it is a normal operation. The Germans did this when they suppressed the rebellion in Southwest Africa. Cecil Rhodes did this when he conquered Rhodes.

This was also done in West Asia, so there is a reason why Africans do not trust white people.

Military doctors from the Northern Rhodesian Division still performed resuscitation on Banda, but Banda was still seriously injured and died after resuscitation failed.

Pulitzer hid the gun in Isaac Pansy's briefcase and brought it into the conference room. When the military doctors were rescuing Banda, Pulitzer was still talking plausibly.

"You bastard deserve it. You are responsible for the hundreds of thousands of white people who died in the rebellion. You deserve to be cut to pieces by a thousand swords -" Pulitzer was almost crazy. The bullets in his pistol had been empty. Pulitzer

Li Ze was still pulling the trigger frantically.

Two soldiers from the Northern Rhodesian Division pushed Pulitzer to the ground, but were actually stopped by members of the Republic of Congo team.

Judging from the expression on Isaac Pansy's face, he probably agreed with Pulitzer's statement.

However, there is a problem with the source of this data. Before the rebellion broke out, there were indeed almost 100,000 white people in the Congo Free State. However, after the rebellion, most of the white people fled. The number of white people killed is estimated to be between 20,000 and 30,000, certainly not as many as 100,000.

many.

Even if there are 100,000, this number is negligible compared with the 15 million Africans who declined during the reign of Leopold II in the Congo Free State.

Regardless of the fuss, the military doctor knelt down next to Banda and rescued him for a long time. Finally, he regretfully announced that Banda died after the rescue efforts failed.

Looking at Banda's men again, their faces were full of grief and anger, and their emotions were raging. The eyes they looked at the team from the Republic of Congo were full of anger, and the eyes they looked at Feng Xun were also full of distrust.

If something like this happened, the negotiations would definitely not be able to continue, so Feng Xun arranged for Banda's men to rest first.

"No, we are leaving Bukavu and will not engage in any form of negotiation with you." Banda's deputy, Barry, had a decisive attitude and seemed not to care that they were now in danger.

Isaac Pansy did not realize the seriousness of the matter at this time and actually wanted the negotiations to continue.

"We came to Bukavu with sincerity, hoping to end the war as soon as possible. As a result, our sincerity was trampled on by you unscrupulously. Now the door to negotiation has been closed by you personally. Get ready for war, gentlemen. There can only be one side between us.

Finally, stay on this land." Barry is fearless. Killing Banda will indeed leave the rebels without a leader, but the out-of-control rebels will cause more serious damage. The dawn of peace has already appeared, even though the Republic of Congo and the rebels

The differences between the military and the military are relatively large, but we can always talk slowly and eventually find a solution that is acceptable to everyone.

Now peace is far away, and the whites and Africans in Congo will definitely have to fight to the death. Although the weapons of the Republic of Congo are relatively advanced, the huge gap in population cannot be made up. More than 10,000 white people, excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, can make up two to three thousand

The army is pretty good, but how can it compete with Africans with a total population of nearly ten million?

It was only after Barry and others carried Banda's body away that Isaac Pansy realized the seriousness of the matter.

"How to talk? Tell me how to talk? If it were you, if your president was killed by the enemy, would you compromise with the enemy?" Feng Xun was powerless. He had to bear the consequences for the cause he had planted.

"This was just an accident. I promise it won't happen again." Isaac Pansy probably thinks that Africans are all fools.

Feng Xun didn't answer, and looked at Isaac Pansy like an idiot. He was just the Prime Minister of the Republic of Congo, not even the mayor of Nyasaland.

It cannot be said that. The key point is that the white people in the Congo Free State have never regarded Africans as human beings. They have been giving and asking for decades and cannot change this inherent impression in a short period of time.

Rock didn't know about it until three hours later, and then Rock also had a big headache.

"Banda is the only link between us and the rebels. Now that Banda died unexpectedly, we still need to find other agents." Yaya also has a headache. Banda's death has had a huge impact, and the rebels are now on the verge of losing control.

, maybe Rock’s cannibalization plan will also fail.

"What's going on with Isaiah Chamberlain?" Rock really couldn't figure it out. Isaiah Chamberlain seemed to be a very smart person, but he didn't expect to be so unreliable in his actions.

Yaya looked innocent. He was only responsible for contacting Banda, not Isaiah Chamberlain.

Rocker then remembered that the person responsible for contacting Isaiah Chamberlain was Christian.

But it's too late to say anything now. After Banda's death, the rebels in the Congo Free State did not collapse. Barry became the new leader of the rebels. On the third day after Banda's death, Barry announced the establishment of the Kingdom of Congo and would

All white people were driven out of the Congo Free State and established a Congo Free State that belonged entirely to Africans.

Public opinion was in an uproar for a while, and now three countries claimed sovereignty over the Congo Free State, namely Belgium, the Republic of Congo, and the newly established Kingdom of Congo.

The advantages and disadvantages of the three countries coexist. Belgium is well-positioned to have international recognition, and the Republic of the Congo has public sympathy and harmony. The Kingdom of Congo has the greatest advantage. It not only occupies a geographical location, but also has a population of 10 million.

The Congo Free State today is different from the Congo Free State under Leopold II.

During the period of Leopold II, although the Congo had a larger population, the tribes did not belong to each other and fought independently, so Leopold II was able to concentrate his superior forces and defeat each one. Eventually, the Congo Free State became the Leopold Republic.

Private colony of German II.

During the rule of Leopold II in the Congo Free State, with the expansion of plantations, the barriers between the various tribes were broken down. Belgium had insufficient population and had to use tribal chiefs to complete the control of the Congo Free State. This objectively strengthened the

This led to the rebellion that spread throughout the Congo.

Regarding the strength of the Kingdom of Congo, neither Belgium nor the Republic of Congo know much about it, but Yaya is the one who knows the situation best.

"The Kingdom of Congo claims to have two million troops, and the actual number is about half a million. This is based on the list of supplies ordered by the Kingdom of Congo. However, Barry has no money to pay now and hopes to purchase supplies with loans. The list includes

Artillery, light and heavy machine guns, and a large number of daily necessities including food -" Yaya did not dare to make the decision on her own, so she still reported to Rock.

"Food? Will the Congo Free State lack food?" Roque has questions. Africa is vast and sparsely populated. The Congo Free State has 10 million Africans and is the most populous country in Africa. However, compared to the 2.35 million square kilometers of the Congo Free State,

It's not that much in terms of area.

"What Barry wants to buy is canned food including luncheon meat -" Yaya said with disdain. In the past, Yaya had provided Banda with some fast food including luncheon meat, and the taste of these foods was very good.

At least it tastes better than dried mango.

Of course, this varies from person to person. City people are used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they think corn flour steamed buns are healthier.

For people who live on cornmeal steamed buns, this is the way to go.

"The loan is OK, but how are they going to repay it?" Rock also doesn't trust Barry. Africans really don't have the ability to govern a country. Look at the Kingdom of Mozambique. When Zha Zha was alive, his wife could form an army. Fortunately, Zha Zha died early.

Otherwise, Zhazha alone can create a nation.

The same goes for the Congo Free State. You can tell from the name that this is a feudal country. It is probably that the method of managing tribes is extended to the entire country. If you can manage the country well, you will be damned. Now you have not even written your horoscope, and you are starting to pursue your personal goals.

Enjoyment, once the white people are driven away, they will definitely be all kinds of extravagant and licentious, no different from Leopold II and scum.

But there is nothing wrong with this for Rock. If Barry has all kinds of ambitions, Rock will have to worry. It's best now.

In Nyasaland, many people do not understand why Nyasaland does not simply annex the Kingdom of Mozambique.

Roque also thought about it, but overall, it was better to keep the Kingdom of Mozambique.

After independence, the Kingdom of Mozambique unsurprisingly became a colony of Nyasaland and Rhodesia. After the partition of Portuguese East Africa, the Kingdom of Mozambique’s territory was only a little over 180,000 square kilometers, and the rest was occupied by Nigeria.

Partition of Asalan and Rhodesia.

The current Kingdom of Mozambique is the source of raw materials for Nyasaland, and it also provides much-needed cheap labor for Nyasaland. The farms reclaimed by Nyasaland are ownerless wastelands, and large tracts of virgin forests are preserved and no logging is allowed.

, but building settlements requires a variety of production materials, of which timber is the bulk, and the Kingdom of Mozambique has become Nyasaland’s largest source of timber.

Timber exports are one of the most important sources of fiscal revenue for the Kingdom of Mozambique. Another major source of income comes from the income from cheap labor. In order to achieve sustainable development, Roque not only imports a large amount of timber from the Kingdom of Mozambique, but also sends people to the Kingdom of Mozambique to guide regreening and replanting.

, so that we can continue to provide raw materials to Nyasaland.

The same is true for the Congo Free State. Like the Kingdom of Mozambique, the Congo Free State also has large areas of virgin forest. During the reign of Leopold II, timber exports were also one of the main sources of income for the Congo Free State.

However, Leopold II certainly did not pay attention to the issue of sustainable development. The Congo Free State has been engaged in predatory development through intensive deforestation over the years, and the forest area is continuing to decrease. Although there are no negative consequences now, there are other issues.

Once it breaks out, it will be too late to deal with it.

Roque's plan for the Congo Free State is the same as for the Kingdom of Mozambique, so the Congo Free State does not need a wise and powerful leader. Banda was a good candidate before, and now Barry seems to be good too.
